MLB player prop bets for Thursday, July 21

Kyle Tucker, Over 1.5 Total Bases (Game 1) (-105)

In his career against Jameson Taillon, Tucker is 3-5 with a home run and a double. Those are great numbers, especially for a guy with just five at-bats off a pitcher. Tucker has also been much better against right-handed pitching. Look for Tucker to have a multi-hit game in this one.

Jorge Soler, Over 0.5 Hits (-130)

Soler has had major struggles swinging the bat this season. But this value for one hit is a great play. In his career against Jon Gray, Soler is 1-3 with a double. Gray has been very good over these last few outings, but I expect the Marlins to get to him a bit earlier in this one. Coming off three straight hitless games, look for Soler to break that streak.

Pablo Lopez, Over 5.5 Strikeouts (-125)

Lopez has been phenomenal this season and is one of the more underrated pitchers in baseball. He’s been pulled earlier than usual in his last few outings, and there's a good chance that it’s because he could be traded. Against a Rangers lineup that has had some struggles this season, I expect Lopez to have success with the strikeout.
