Best MLB Player Props September 05 2023

Jasson Dominguez Over 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBI (+100 on DraftKings Sportsbook)

The moment isn’t too big for Jasson Dominguez, the Yankees' second-ranked prospect. Dominguez was called to the show over the weekend and looked strong, homering twice. 

These homers were no joke as he faced the Houston Astros and led them to a sweep of one of the best teams in the American League. 

We’re leaning towards the over on Jasson Dominguez’s hits + runs + RBI prop on DraftKings. The odds are still very favorable because he is only playing in his third game this season on Monday against the Tigers. 

He hit the over in all three games over the weekend, and we believe he will make it four straight on Tuesday. Yankee Stadium features the short porch, which will be Dominguez’s best friend. 

He can hit this prop with one swing of the bat and should have success from Alex Faedo, who is very home run prone. 

Faedo has a good arsenal, but his consistency hasn’t been great. He is 2-5 with a 4.89 ERA and a 1.07 WHIP. The WHIP is great, but he doesn’t have fantastic strikeout ability, and he has allowed 11 homers in 57 innings. 

Dominguez faced better pitchers over the weekend against Houston and has a high probability of staying hot at home. 

Mookie Betts Over 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBI (-135 on DraftKings Sportsbook)

Jesus Luzardo is one of the best young pitchers in baseball. He has been inconsistent sometimes, but he can shut down the best lineups in baseball. 

His boom rate is very high, even against an offense as talented as the Dodgers. However, we’ll fade Luzardo in this spot when it comes to Mookie Betts. Luzardo is 9-8 on the season with a 3.62 ERA and a 1.22 WHIP. 

Luzardo has all the makings of a front-end starter in the big leagues for years to come, but Betts will win this battle.

Betts has been slightly cold as of late, and still crushing it for the Dodgers. He is coming off a three-for-four night where he recorded an RBI against the Braves. He has gone over his hits + runs + RBI total in three of his past five games. 

He will have plenty of chances to score and drive in runners against Miami. Additionally, he has the NL MVP motivation, carrying him to a strong finish to the season. 

Zach Eflin Over 17.5 Outs Recorded (-105 on DraftKings Sportsbook)

Zach Eflin has been one of the best pitchers for the Rays this season. He has showcased tremendous swing-and-miss ability while keeping opponents off balance. He isn’t an overpowering pitcher, but he doesn’t make a lot of mistakes. 

Eflin is 13-8 with a 3.4 ERA and a 1.02 WHIP. He has recorded 151 strikeouts in 150.2 innings. 

His WHIP is .2 better this season than it has been throughout the rest of his career. 

Eflin will face the Red Sox on Tuesday, and his outs-recorded total is set at 17.5. This means he has to go six innings to hit this total, and he has been able to hit this total consistently. 

He went over the total five times in six starts in August, and Boston’s offense isn’t great on the road. 

Boston hits .245 as a team on the road as a visitor compared to .285 at home. Eflin should be able to take advantage of the home atmosphere and go six innings against Boston. 

Look for the Red Sox to threaten at times throughout the game, but Eflin to win the overall battle, keeping him on the mound.
