Top Player Prop Picks

1. Rafael Devers Over 1.5 Total Bases (+120)

widget-props-mlb-10723-5202828

Devers has been a key offensive contributor for the Red Sox, and his ability to hit for power makes this an attractive prop. He has a strong track record against right-handed pitching, and Fenway Park's hitter-friendly dimensions further enhance his chances of surpassing this line.

2. Spencer Torkelson Over 0.5 Home Runs (+400)

Torkelson has been heating up at the plate, and his power potential makes this a high-value prop. With the Red Sox's pitching staff prone to giving up the long ball, Torkelson could capitalize on a favorable matchup.

3. Eduardo Rodriguez Over 5.5 Strikeouts (-110)

Rodriguez has been a strikeout machine this season, and facing a Red Sox lineup that has struggled with strikeouts in recent games, he is well-positioned to hit the over on this line. His familiarity with Fenway Park as a former Red Sox player adds an intriguing narrative to this prop.
