Hello everybody and welcome! The 2021 MLB season is alive and well and that means our new friends over at PrizePicks have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props 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.
Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the best, and easiest to win, MLB DFS games in the industry. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. 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. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.
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 MLB, Single Stat consists of pitcher strikeout props as well as hitter props in which you determine if the pitcher or hitter in question will go over or under their projected total. You can mix and match players from each type of game 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. For today's article, we are going to look at some pitchers as well as a hitter that might be in a great spot. Let's see what the board offers today!

Single Stat MLBP and MLB Totals
Tyler Mahle over 6.5 strikeouts - Mahle gets a solid matchup vs. the Brewers who are currently striking out at a rate of 26.2% vs. right-handers over the previous 10 days, which is ranked eighth-worst in baseball. He has gone over this total in two of his previous three starts and also has a ridiculous 1.65 ERA on the road to go along with 47 strikeouts in 43 2/3 innings pitched.
Brady Singer over 6 strikeouts - Singer will be facing the Detroit Tigers who are striking out at a rate of 27.6% vs. right-handers over the previous 10 days, which is ranked sixth-worst in the league over that span. Singer has gone over this total or matched it in five of his previous six starts and has also struck out 18 Tigers across 16 2/3 innings pitched on the season.
Zack Wheeler over 7.5 strikeouts - I know the Dodgers have been solid against right-handers lately, but they have not faced a tough righty since May 31st when they went up against Jack Flaherty and he managed to strike out nine in that one. Wheeler has been a strikeout machine and has double-digit strikeouts in four of his previous five starts. The one time he failed to reach double-digits, he still managed to get eight, which would be over this total as well.
Justin Upton over 0.5 Runs+RBI - Upton has been on fire from the leadoff spot for the Angels over the previous two weeks as he has a .326 average with four home runs, 14 runs scored, and 10 RBI. He is in a great spot vs. Cole Irvin who has allowed a .265 BAA to righties on the season and also allowed six home runs and 21 RBI to righties.
