Best MLB player prop bets for today, 8/15: Wheeling and dealing

With a full 15-game MLB slate on tap and plenty of intriguing matchups on the docket, bettors have numerous options to choose from on this jam-packed slate. The betting markets have been moving all morning long, but there are still plenty of prop plays with value, and I found 4 worth discussing below. Let’s dive in, but make sure you also check out our  MLB picks for every game today. Zack Wheeler (PHI) under 1.5 walks allowed (-110) Odds available at DraftKings Sports book at time of initial post to Twitter. Playable to -120 odds. A walks-allowed prop headlining this article is not a common occurrence, but today ’s pricing on Zack Wheeler is showing value towards the under. The Phillies ace has showcased extreme command of the strike zone for his entire career, allowing just 6.2% of his opponents to gain a free pass over his 1,323.2 career major league innings. This season that rate has fallen even further as the right-hander has issued just a 4.4% walk rate, a career-b...

Atlanta Braves first 5 innings team total over 2.5 (+100) Odds available at DraftKings sportsbook at time of initial post to Twitter. Playable to -125 odds. Guardians’ rookie pitcher Gavin Williams garnered a ton of respect from the books yesterday with Atlanta’s first 5 inning team total being set at 2.5 with -110 odds to the over. While he pitched well, 3 home runs resulted in 4 Atlanta runs and the F5 TT cashed easily. Now Atlanta faces Shane Bieber, the 2020 AL Cy Young winner. While Bieber is currently a better pitcher than Williams, the total should have never been set at 2.5 yesterday, and in my opinion, they should not be even money today . Atlanta has surpassed this mar...
