It’s no surprise that Rafael Devers leads the majors in total bases with 204. In fact, none of the top five is a surprise.
Austin Riley of Atlanta is second, Aaron Judge is third and fourth and fifth place belong to the Cardinals Paul Goldschmidt and Colorado’s C.J. Cron.
Goldschmidt and Devers are No. 2 and No. 3 in batting average. Judge leads the majors with 31 homers and Riley is tied for third with 26. Cron is tied with Riley for 11th in total hits (100).
Who will lead the charge today? Here are the top MLB total bases props picks for Saturday, July 16th 2022.
Steven Kwan – Over 1.5 Total Bases (+110)
Tigers vs. Guardians Predictions
The Cleveland rookie has been on a tear recently. Kwan has 14 hits in his last 10 games, including two doubles. He has doubled in each of the first two games of the Guardians current series with Detroit.
Kwan bats .279 for the season and will face Detroit pitcher Michael Pineda today. Pineda is 2-4 with a 3.58 ERA, but his xERA is well over 6.00 which means he’s due for some negative regression. That gives Kwan the edge today.
Freddie Freeman – Over 1.5 Total Bases (+110)
Dodgers vs. Angels Predictions
Freeman leads the majors with 112 hits. He’s tied for sixth in total bases with 182. Tonight, he will go up against Angels pitcher Jose Suarez.
Suarez is just 1-3 and has a 4.79 ERA. The Angels have lost four of his last five starts and he’s only lasted five innings in one of those starts. That means Freeman will get a crack at the Angels bullpen too. That bullpen is ranked 20th in ERA.
Freeman has hit safely in his last seven games and he had multiple hits in four of those seven.

Aaron Judge – Over 1.5 Total Bases (-120)
Red Sox vs. Yankees Predictions
Judge is due for a big night. In his last five games, he has just two hits. One of those was a home run in a loss to Cincinnati.
Against Boston this season, Judge is 7-for-33 with two doubles. Tonight, he faces Nick Pivetta who has struggled recently. His most recent start was against the Yankees and he allowed six earned runs. He’s given up 13 in his last two starts.
Pivetta has given up 12 home runs this season. Against the Yankees, he’s allowed 12 hits (four homers) and 10 earned runs in nine total innings. Judge is due.
Mike Yastrzemski – Over 1.5 Total Bases (-140)
Brewers vs. Giants Predictions
Yastrzemski has hit safely in five of his last seven games. In three of those five, he had multiple hits. He homered last night in the Giants win over the Brewers.
Tonight, he will face Eric Lauer who is 6-3 with a 3.83 ERA. Lauer is a mediocre pitcher that reaps the benefits of pitching against the NL Central. He has allowed at least six hits in five of his last six starts. He’s also allowed seven home runs in those five starts.
Yastrzemski is too good of a hitter against any pitcher. Against Lauer, he’ll go Over this prop.
