Here are five of the best player prop picks to make for the games on Sunday, August 14th.

Miles Mikolas Over 5.5 Strikeouts (+120)

Brewers vs. Cardinals Pick

The Milwaukee Brewers and St. Louis Cardinals will meet up again on Sunday, and each team has already picked up a win in this series. First place in the NL Central Division is on the line, and this should be another terrific battle.

There are multiple ways to bet on this game, but looking at the strikeout numbers for Miles Mikolas is the best way to go. Mikolas has quietly put together a phenomenal season for St. Louis, and he should be dominant again.

Take the over 5.5 strikeouts as Mikolas leads the Cardinals to a win.

MLB Betting Lines

Julio Rodriguez to Record an RBI (+135)

Mariners vs. Rangers Pick

Julio Rodriguez burst on the scene this year as a rookie for the Seattle Mariners, and he hasn’t slowed down. Rodriguez just recently made a return from the IL and has immediately picked up where he left off.

The Seattle Mariners are in the middle of a playoff race, and they need their best player to help lead the way. With that in mind, you can look for Rodriguez to have a big game as he is able to record an RBI at (+135) for a good bet to make.

Brandon Crawford to Record a Run (+115)

Pirates vs. Giants Pick

It’s been a rough MLB season for the San Francisco Giants as they enter play on Sunday one game under the .500 mark. San Francisco is hosting Pittsburgh, and the Pirates have been even worse than the Giants.

Brandon Crawford was once a perennial MVP candidate in the National League, but that is no longer the case. Crawford does still have the talent to have a big day at the plate for the Giants, and he will record a run in this game.

MLB Predictions

Chris Archer Over 4.5 Strikeouts (-105)

Twins vs. Angels Pick

The Minnesota Twins are in Los Angeles on Sunday to take on the Angels. These teams have split the first two MLB games of the season, and the Twins need a big start from Chris Archer.

Archer is just 2-5 with a 4.02 ERA on the year, but he still has the stuff to be dominant when pitching well. The Los Angeles Angels continue to struggle at the plate, and that should allow Archer to post some big strikeout numbers.

Take the over 4.5 strikeouts (-105) as Archer has little trouble getting through the Angels lineup.

Aaron Judge to Hit a Home Run (+196)

Yankees vs. Red Sox Pick

Aaron Judge has continued to put up ridiculous numbers this season as he will likely win the MVP Award in the American League. Judge leads the league with 46 home runs, and it’s never a bad idea to bet on him to hit a home run.

The Yankees are in Boston on Sunday night for a game with the Red Sox, and that short porch in left field will be enticing to Judge. You can get pretty good odds when betting on the slugger to hit a home run at +196, and that makes this a great betting opportunity.
