We're rolling into Monday off an 8-1 weekend, and we're ready to keep building our bankroll with MLB player props today.
I've pinpointed two players who will help us do that.
Let's dive into our top MLB player props for Monday, June 10 — featuring bets for Corbin Burnes and Kyle Harrison.
MLB Player Props: Monday, June 10
Burnes has been a workhorse for the Orioles and is in line to eat up some more innings tonight.
Burnes will be up against the Rays, who've struggled against righties this season.
The Rays rank 24th in wRC+ against right-handed pitching and 21st in OBP. However, Burnes isn't your average righty, as he ranks in the 91st percentile in hard-hit rate.
Burnes excels at generating soft contact and producing quick outcomes. Add that to a great matchup against a scuffling Rays lineup, and Burnes going six innings here has to be on your card.
His history backs up this price, as he's gone six innings in 10 of his 13 starts this season, which feeds into a 68% hit rate over the last three seasons.
That 68% hit rate gives us implied odds of -213, which is excellent value on the current price.
Pick: Corbin Burnes Over 17.5 Outs (-152)
Harrison is set to take the ball for the Giants tonight, and he has a tough matchup ahead of him as the Astros are in town.
The Astros' lineup is not only dangerous, but Houston excels in putting the ball in play. It has the lowest team strikeout rate in the majors.
However, this matchup has driven Harrison's strikeout line far too low.
The young lefty is averaging five strikeouts per start in his 20 career starts, but tonight, his line is at 3.5.
Harrison has gone over that line in 80% of his 20 career starts. That hit rate equates to implied odds of -400.
So, back him to go over tonight as the Astros are being given too much credit.
Pick: Kyle Harrison Over 3.5 Strikeouts (-148)
