Top Player Prop Picks

1. Bobby Witt Jr. Over 1.5 Total Bases (+120)

widget-props-mlb-10671-5161503

Bobby Witt Jr. has been a key contributor for the Royals, and his ability to generate extra-base hits makes this prop appealing. Witt has been seeing the ball well in this series and could capitalize against a struggling White Sox pitching staff.

2. Andrew Vaughn Over 0.5 RBIs (+150)

Andrew Vaughn has been one of the few bright spots for the White Sox offense. If Chicago can get runners on base, Vaughn is a strong candidate to drive them in, especially in a high-leverage situation.

3. Zack Greinke Over 4.5 Strikeouts (+110)

Greinke has been effective in recent starts, and the White Sox lineup has been prone to strikeouts. Look for Greinke to take advantage of Chicago's offensive struggles and surpass this modest strikeout total.
