Here are our favorite MLB prop bets for Tuesday, June 6th:
Oakland Athletics at Pittsburgh Pirates (-250, 8.5)
It definitely seems like the oddsmakers are begging us to take the over on Keller’s strikeout prop tonight, and I’m sadly taking the bait. This has been one of the most profitable plays of the MLB season thus far, and I think it’s worth it to continue betting it until it loses. And with the odds at +140 in a matchup with the worst team in baseball, I think it’s worth going to and hoping for the best.
Keller hasn’t pitched very well recently, as he has given up 10 earned runs on 17 hits over his last two starts. However, the righty still reached eight strikeouts in both of those games. And he has now hit that mark in each of his last seven outings. Now, Keller gets a lousy Oakland offense at PNC Park, where he is 3-0 with a 2.18 ERA this season. I just see this being a dominant outing for the righty, who must be looking at this as a get-right spot.
Bet: Keller Over 7.5 Strikeouts (+140)
Baltimore Orioles at Milwaukee Brewers (-130, 8.5)
This has been a pretty tough season for Freddy Peralta, who is just 5-5 with a 4.62 ERA thus far. That’s the highest ERA the righty has had since 2019, and Peralta has now given up at least three earned runs in each of his last four starts. With that in mind, we’re backing him to give up at least three runs again on Tuesday.
Baltimore prefers to hit left-handed pitching, but this Orioles offense is dangerous regardless. So, this isn’t exactly the medicine Peralta needs at the moment. I’m not sure the righty will get shelled in this start, but I do think it’s reasonable to expect three runs out of the Orioles offense.
Bet: Peralta Over 2.5 Earned Runs Allowed (+130)
San Francisco Giants (-140, 11.5) at Colorado Rockies
The Rockies are sending Dinelson Lamet and his 13.17 ERA to the mound tonight, and they’re doing so in a home game. That makes this one of the more favorable hitting spots of the year for the Giants, as they get a great matchup at the most hitter-friendly park in baseball. With that in mind, I wanted to find a San Francisco player to back in this game. And the guy that stands out is LaMonte Wade Jr.
Wade is only batting .273 with eight homers and 17 RBIs this season, but he’s batting .292 with six doubles, seven homers and 16 RBIs against righties. He’s really only useful in matchups like these, and I think he’s one of the Giants players that should be looking forward to playing Lamet at Coors Field. Don’t be surprised if Wade goes for an extra base hit or two here — or even if he goes yard.
Bet: Wade Over 1.5 Total Bases (+105)
