With less than two weeks remaining in the MLB season, you can use MLB team stats to help with betting. There are some interesting matchups on the schedule on Tuesday, and enough opportunities to make some good bets.
Here is a look at two of the best MLB player props today for games on September 27.
Tampa Bay Rays vs. Cleveland Guardians
The Tampa Bay Rays and Cleveland Guardians meet up on Tuesday night to begin a three-game series between AL Playoff teams.
AL Playoff Teams
The starting pitching matchup for this game is a good one, and it could lead to a great betting opportunity.
Tampa Bay comes into this game with a record of 84-69, and they are trying to lock up an AL Wild Card spot. The Rays will send Corey Kluber to the mound as he is trying to snap a two-game losing streak.
Cleveland will counter with Shane Bieber, and no team in baseball is as hot as the Guardians. This team has wrapped up the AL Central Division title with a record of 86-67.
Corey Kluber
Corey Kluber is a former Cy Young Award winner with the Cleveland Guardians, and he will be looking for a big start against his former team. Things haven’t gone as well for Kluber this season, but he is always capable of having a big outing.
You always want to look at the alternate strikeout totals when making MLB props today. Here are three of the best options to look at for Kluber on Tuesday.
- Corey Kluber 4+ Strikeouts (-118)
- Corey Kluber 5+ Strikeouts (+200)
- Corey Kluber 6+ Strikeouts (+440)
Kluber’s Performance
There are so many great alternate strikeout totals to look at when betting on Kluber in this game, but it’s best to make a safe pick.
Kluber could rack up the strikeout totals in this game, but taking the 5+ strikeouts comes with some great value; but also is a safe and smart betting decision.
MLB Player Prop: Corey Kluber 5+ Strikeouts (+200)
New York Yankees vs. Toronto Blue Jays
AL East Rivals
AL East rivals meet up on Tuesday night as the Toronto Blue Jays host the New York Yankees. Both teams have had a terrific season, and there are plenty of good player-prop betting opportunities in this matchup.
New York comes into this game with a record of 94-59, and they are going to win the AL East Division. The Yankees lost in the series opener to the Blue Jays, but this team is quick to bounce back.
Toronto has had a huge run in the second half to get into the playoff race. The Blue Jays still have some work to do, but they are going to be in the mix and could go on a run in the postseason.
Aaron Judge
Until Aaron Judge belts his 61st home run of the year, he is going to be a player to look at when trying to find the best MLB props today.
Judge Batting Average
Judge is having a massive season for the Yankees, and he is always capable of having a big performance. The MLB player stats for Judge just continue to be impressive, and there is one major target to look at.
Judge comes into this matchup on Tuesday night with 60 home runs, 128 RBIs, and a .314 batting average. Those numbers are extremely impressive in the AL East, and the slugger just continues to have big games.
Aaron Judge is going to hit his 61st home run of the season soon, and you might as well get paid for it when it happens.
A Favorable Matchup for Judge
It will be a great idea to target Judge to home run until he gets it done, but the matchup is favorable on Tuesday night.
The Yankees slugger is going to go deep in this one as he ties Roger Maris with a blast. If Judge doesn’t get it done in this one, then it would be worth making this bet yet again.
MLB Player Prop: Aaron Judge to Hit a Home Run (+200)
