We’ve got a full MLB slate lined up for Monday night, and while the matchups are undeniably solid, the player props are where we’re finding the value hiding. Instead of just riding with sides and totals like most, let’s dig into four of the juiciest player props across 4 of the biggest games of the day.

Each pick comes with a reason — and of course, a price that makes it worth the shot. We're mixing up overs, unders, and a couple of plus-money darts that are backed by real trends. We think you’re going to love what we’ve found in this mix of MLB prop bets.

CJ Abrams Over 0.5 RBIs vs. Dodgers

  • Player Prop Odds: +220

CJ Abrams has been a steady presence at the plate for Washington since the start of the season, and this prop is way too generous — but we love that.

He’s driven in a run in 4 of his last 5 games and now faces a Dodgers team that has been slightly shaky against left-handed bats this season despite being one of the best teams in baseball.

The matchup looks even better when you consider Abrams will most likely be hitting at the top of the lineup, which means even more opportunities with runners on. This is a guy with sneaky pop and aggressive baserunners like Dylan Crews, who has insane speed, ahead of him.

Getting +220 on a player who's hit this in 80% of his recent games? That’s a green light for a big bet. With these odds, this is one of the best MLB props on the board for today’s slate.

Masyn Winn Over 0.5 Runs vs. Pirates

  • Player Prop Odds: +145

This is one of the cleanest trends on the board. Masyn Winn has scored a run in each of his last 8 road games. That’s not just hot — that’s consistently hot.

He’s been doing it whether he’s drawing walks, stealing extra bags, or even getting driven in by the bats behind him like Willson Contreras.

St. Louis has been getting solid top-of-the-order production, and the Pirates don’t pose much of a threat with their starting pitching depth. If Winn gets on base early, we think the odds are he’s crossing home at some point.

At +145, this has some serious value for a player clearly seeing the ball well and thriving away from Busch Stadium.

Riley Greene Over 0.5 RBIs vs. Yankees

  • Player Prop Odds: +230

Let’s not overthink this big bet, despite being against the Yankees. Riley Greene has recorded an RBI in 5 of the Tigers' last 6 games, and he’s been crushing RHPs. He’s also hit this prop in 4 of his last 5 games, so it makes you wonder what the bookmakers are missing.

He’ll face Carlos Rondon who’s taking the bump for the Yankees, and over his couple of stars, he’s only posting a 3.97 ERA. On top of that, Detroit’s offense has quietly found a rhythm. Greene’s been in the middle of it all. His uncanny plate discipline and excellent contact make him a go-to RBI option whenever someone’s in scoring position, which is more often than not with these Tigers.

You’re giving us all that with +230 odds?

Yeah, we can’t pass this bet up.

This is one of our favorites for today. But keep in mind, this game is a bit earlier than originally scheduled due to the weather, so you’ll have to get this prop in ASAP.

Trevor Story Over 0.5 Singles vs. Blue Jays

  • Player Prop Odds: +120

Trevor Story has been sneaky consistent in a specific spot — he’s getting singles at home after playing the previous day. It’s an interesting take, but sometimes the most interesting ones pay out the most. He’s done it in 6 straight home games in that exact scenario, and he’s at Fenway — again — tonight.

Story’s not trying to do too much right now — he’s been content taking what the pitchers give him, which often results in opposite-field liners or groundball singles. It's not flashy, and it’s not the big bomb, but it cashes pretty regularly.

Against Toronto, who hasn’t been sharp on the mound lately. Story has a good chance to keep the trend going. The plus money here feels like a gift for a guy in rhythm at the plate.

These Are the Best MLB Prop Bets for Today

4 big games, 4 props all with plus odds, and each backed by a recent hot streak or matchup edge.

We’re not even chasing long-shot bets on these bets — we’re simply taking advantage of undervalued trends the books haven’t fully adjusted to yet and probably won't by the first pitch.

Even if a few of these bets cash, you’re in for a great afternoon of baseball.
