The Detroit Tigers (72-79), who have won six straight, look to sweep the Toronto Blue Jays (75-77), who have dropped six of nine. Following the Tigers’ decisive 10-1 victory in the previous skirmish, they are looking to carry that offensive momentum into this afternoon tilt at the Rogers Centre Wednesday. First pitch is scheduled for 3:07 PM ET / 12:07 PM PT and the Blue Jays are favorites in the MLB odds.

With Keider Montero taking the mound for the Tigers opposite Blue Jays veteran Max Scherzer, I see a highly actionable pitching dynamic. Standout sluggers like George Springer and Riley Greene offer incredible value in the prop markets for this afternoon’s tilt. The Jays are two games back for the final Wild Card spot in the AL, desperately in need of victories.

Top MLB Player Prop Picks for Tigers vs Blue Jays

Here are my top MLB player props picks for today’s American League affair between Detroit and Toronto.

George Springer Over 1.5 Total Bases (+121 at bet365)

George Springer draws a difficult matchup this afternoon against starter Keider Montero. Springer’s batter-versus-pitcher history against the right-hander is undeniably dominant, even in a limited track record. In six career at-bats, Springer has tallied four hits, including one double and two round-trippers. While Montero generally yields a stingy .326 slugging percentage to right-handed hitters, Springer’s specific success makes this prop highly appealing.

Springer’s recent form comfortably outpaces his season baseline. Over his last 15 games, the veteran outfielder has posted a .327 batting average and a .545 slugging percentage across 55 at-bats, eclipsing his season-long marks of a .253 average and .417 slugging percentage. Montero has only gone four innings in each of his last two starts, surrendering eight total earned runs. The single strongest reason I am backing this side is Springer’s explosive track record against Montero’s repertoire.

Riley Greene Over 1.5 Total Bases (-102 at Caesars)

Riley Greene offers fantastic value despite a muted history against starter Max Scherzer. In five career at-bats, Greene has managed just one base hit. However, the left-handed outfielder crushes right-handed pitching this year. Greene boasts a .293 average and .495 slugging percentage against righties, perfectly positioning him to capitalize on Scherzer. The veteran hurler carries a bloated 6.38 season ERA and surrenders 1.86 home runs per nine innings.

Greene enters today scorching hot, performing well above his solid season baseline. Across his last 15 games, he amassed a .351 average and a massive .684 slugging percentage over 57 at-bats, hitting four home runs and 18 RBI. This represents a significant surge over his season totals of a .284 average and .482 slugging. The strongest reason for this pick is Greene’s elite recent form colliding with Scherzer’s vulnerability to the long ball.
