Hump Day is here with a 15-game Wednesday baseball schedule, and we’re treated to MLB player prop action from the start of the day. Speaking of treating ourselves, BetMGM is offering a RISK-FREE BET up to $1,000! This means you can get in on your favorite player prop of the day without shilling out your bankroll; if you lose the bet, your wager ships back to you regardless. Weather across most home ball parks appears in the clear of delays or postponement, though we’ll have to circle back later in the day to Busch Stadium in St. Louis where thunderstorms are likely around first pitch.
Best MLB Bets Today: Baseball Prop Betting Picks 8/3
Kyle Tucker O/U 1.5 Total Bases | RISK FREE BET from BetMGM
Today the Houston Astros have a welcomed matchup in Brayan Bello while Kyle Tucker has a 1.5 total bases prop at +120 odds on the over. Tucker has an .824 OPS against left-handed pitching, including 10 doubles and 13 home runs this season. Bello is allowing a .389 average and 42.1% hard contact to lefties while posting a 4.74 xFIP and an 8.82 ERA. Tucker’s been quiet of late, though a date with Bello could change that and getting considerable plus-money odds for two bases on hits makes for one of the best MLB betting picks today.
