Welcome to our PrizePicks MLB DFS prop picks for Friday, July 28, 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!

Kevin Gausman more than 7.5 strikeouts
Gausman has struck out eight or more 10 times on the season and has a solid shot to do it again tonight against the Angels. Over the previous three weeks, the Angels have posted the ninth-highest K rate vs. right-handers with a rate of 25.2%. Gausman will also be at home in this one where he has posted a 12.8 K/9 in 2023.
Zack Wheeler more than 7.0 strikeouts
Wheeler has matched or eclipsed this total in four of his previous five starts and has a great matchup in-state against the Pirates tonight. over the previous three weeks, Pittsburgh has posted the sixth-highest K rate vs. right-handers with a rate of 27.1%. They have also posted a lackluster 70 wRC+ over this same span as well as a mediocre 7.3% walk rate. Wheeler has also been solid on the road as he has posted a 10.55 K/9 in 2023 while away from Philadelphia.
Mitch Keller more than 5.5 strikeouts
We will stay in the same game for our next play with Keller. Keller has struck out at least six batters in 14 total starts this season. He will be up against the Phillies tonight, who have struggled to the tune of posting a 24% K rate vs. right-handers over the previous three weeks, which ranks in the bottom half of baseball. They have also posted the second-worst wRC+ mark vs. righties over this same span with a mark of 71.
