Welcome to our PrizePicks MLB DFS prop picks for Monday, August 7, 2023. The 2023 MLB season is underway here at RotoBaller, and we have you covered with some terrific plays from our friends over at PrizePicks.
PrizePicks is a great DFS fantasy picks site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play. On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money.
Announcement: We have two awesome new Props Optimizers for the MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, and NCAA! The PrizePicks Optimizer and Prop Bets Optimizer are both available in our new Props Premium Package, which includes exclusive access to RotoBaller's VIP Discord chat rooms for props and betting.

PrizePicks Over/Under DFS Props Contests
PrizePicks has two types of games. The first type of game is known as Fantasy Score, which consists of selecting various players and trying to determine if they will go over or under their projected fantasy points in a game.
The second game is known as Single Stat. For the MLB, Single Stat consists of pitcher strikeout props in which you determine if the pitcher in question will go over or under their projected strikeout total.
You can mix and match players from different types of games in your entry or select all of your plays from the same type of game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. Let's see what the board offers today!
MLB DFS Props - Over/Under Picks for Today
Be sure to also check out our brand new PrizePicks Optimizer tool and the free PrizePicks DFS Props Tool to see more recommended picks.
Eury Perez more than 6.0 strikeouts
Eury Perez has struck out more than six batters in three of his previous four starts and has matched or eclipsed this total in five of his previous six starts. He will be facing the Reds tonight, who have posted the fifth-highest K rate vs. right-handers over the previous three weeks with a rate of 27.1%. The Reds are also posting just a 6.2% walk rate and a sub-100 wRC+ mark over that same span, which should help give Perez some length in this one.
Spencer Strider more than 9.0 strikeouts
Spencer Strider has struck out at least 10 batters in five of his previous seven starts and has matched nine strikeouts in the other two starts. He will be up against the Pirates tonight, who are posting the third-highest K rate vs. right-handers over the previous three weeks with a rate of 28.3%. This is a very solid spot for Strider with the only true risk being that he is on the road where his K/9 mark is 13.6 compared to 15.1 at home.
Dylan Cease less than 7.0 strikeouts
Dylan Cease has eclipsed this total just twice in his previous six starts and does not have the easiest matchup against the Yankees tonight. While the Yankees are posting the 10th-highest K rate vs. right-handers over the previous three weeks, they are also posting the highest walk rate over that same span with a rate of 11.5%.
This could get Cease into trouble and rack his pitch count up as he has walked at least two batters in each of his previous four starts and has racked up 10 walks over his previous 18 1/3 innings pitched. He is capable of eclipsing this number, but he likely does not get deep enough to do so tonight.
