Luis Robert Jr. leads the majors with 17 stolen bases. However, with an early afternoon start for the White Sox on the Friday MLB schedule, he may get passed over by MLB prop bettors. Fortunately, the rest of the day’s slate begins in the evening so there are several other speedsters to target with MLB stolen bases props. Shohei Ohtani, Elly De La Cruz and Jose Ramirez all have 10 or more swiped bags, and two of them share the same MLB prop odds for stealing a base. De La Cruz and Ramirez are at +350 to go Over 0.5 stolen bases at Bet365 Sportsbook, while Ohtani is at +375. Which of these MLB player props should you combine into a parlay?
Targeting stolen bases props is a popular way to attack MLB betting, and with 14 games on Friday’s MLB schedule starting at 6:40 p.m. ET or later, you can find value on the board. With MLB props available for almost every player in every game at sportsbooks, SportsLine’s proven computer model can help you find value to add to your MLB stolen bases parlay picks.
The model simulates every game 10,000 times and is on a 12-8 run on all top-rated MLB money-line picks since the start of the season. The model is up 35.6 units on picks over the last 38 days. Now, the model and SportsLine’s team of Data Scientists have revealed their projections for some of the most-bet MLB stolen bases props on Friday. These three picks can be parlayed for +2223 odds and would win over $2,200 on a $100 bet.
Elly De La Cruz Over 0.5 stolen bases (+350)
Despite not making his MLB debut until nearly midway through the 2023 season, no one has more stolen bases than De La Cruz (116) over that span, and it’s by a wide margin as he has 21 more than anyone else. He topped the National League in steals last year, ranks second this season and has an ideal set of circumstances in play for Friday. Cincy faces the Guardians, whose starting catcher is Bo Naylor, and few backstops have been picked on quite like Naylor. He’s allowed 31 stolen bases on the season, which is the second-most in all of baseball.
Jarren Duran Over 0.5 stolen bases (+225)
Duran and the Red Sox face former Boston pitcher, Chris Sale of Atlanta, on Friday, and while Sale is the reigning NL Cy Young winner, he hasn’t been able to control the basepaths this season. He has allowed 13 stolen bases, which is the most by any pitcher this season, and he only has seen one baserunner caught stealing. That’s a 93% effective rate on stolen base attempts versus Sale, and Duran is the Red Sox player most likely to take off with 11 swipes on the season. Boston’s leadoff hitter also tops the AL in plate appearances, which is a key component to simply have the opportunities to get on base and then take off.
DraftKings Sportsbook has this prop at +225, and right now, DraftKings is offering $200 in bonus bets when you bet $5. Bet this plus-money prop here.
Bobby Witt Jr. Over 0.5 stolen bases (+170)
Witt swiped his 15th bag of the season in his last game on Wednesday and is on pace to finish with 54 stolen bases on the season, which would be a new career high. He ranks second in the Senior Circuit on stolen bases and is ninth in on-base percentage, so he’s getting ample opportunities to run. The Royals face the Cardinals on Friday, with Andre Pallante on the mound, and the righty is in a tailspin. After allowing a .258 on-base percentage through his first three starts, his OBP allowed has jumped over 100 points to .361 over his last five starts, with a 5.67 ERA over that span. All six baserunners that have attempted stolen bases off him this year have been successful, and this combination gives value to the Over for Witt at DraftKings.

Twins’ Carlos Correa lands on concussion IL after head-to-head collision with Byron Buxton
Imagn Images Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa and outfielder Byron Buxton exited Thursday's win against the Baltimore Orioles after colliding during the bottom of the third inning. On Friday, the Twins placed Correa on the concussion-specific injured list and activated infielder Ryan Fitzgerald. Buxton remains in the concussion protocol.The two Twins stars were each tracking a Cedric Mullins fly ball, with Correa keeping his back to the outfield and Buxton coming in from center. Buxton was able to snag the ball before making contact. Both went down after appearing to knock heads. Correa left immediately and Buxton initially stayed in the game before departing.Here's a look at the play in question: Correa, 30, came into play on Thursday in the midst of a disappointing season.

Shohei Ohtani adds to special subset of collectibles by striking out against another position player
The Shohei Ohtani 50/50 bobblehead given away at Dodger Stadium on Thursday was highly coveted by fans in attendance, but it wasn’t the night’s most valuable piece of Ohtani memorabilia.With the Dodgers up 16-2 after seven and a half innings, the battered Athletics sent backup catcher Jhonny Pereda to the mound to pitch the bottom of the 8th. After giving up three straight hits to begin his outing, Ohtani stepped up to the plate. Ohtani had already homered twice in the game, giving him 15 for the season and a share of the Major League lead with Aaron Judge and Kyle Schwarber. Given his opposition, a third seemed likely.AdvertisementPereda got Ohtani to a 1-2 count with four pitches that each floated in at less than 70 MPH, then he dug deep and delivered an 89 MPH fastball above the strike […]
Presidentes de Fluminense, Inter e Fortaleza lamentam crise da CBF e afirmam que é momento de união dos clubes
A crise da CBF preocupa os presidentes de clubes da elite do futebol brasileiro. Os mandatários de Fluminense, Fortaleza e Internacional lamentaram a precipitação de novas eleições e afirmaram que vão se reunir para tratar o assunto. Reunidos em Simpósio de Direito Esportivo, organizado pelo Fluminense, Mário Bittencourt, do tricolor, Alessandro Barcellos, do clube gaúcho, e Marcelo Paz, CEO do Fortaleza, consideraram absurda a marcação de eleições num domingo de rodada de Brasileirão. Também acreditam que o momento é de união dos clubes e das ligas, apesar de o estatuto atual da CBF dar pouco poder a eles. Os clubes têm que se unir pelo futebol brasileiro, são os maiores protagonistas. É triste, acho que a gente conseguiu se organizar em tantas coisas e, na entidade máxima do futebol (CBF), tem essa insegurança estrutural e de governança — lamentou Mário, […]

Cubs’ youth movement out in full force at Wrigley Field with Pete Crow-Armstrong, Cade Horton
CHICAGO — The TV cameras converged around Pete Crow-Armstrong’s Wrigley Field locker after Friday’s 13-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox. The young center fielder for the Chicago Cubs stood there with a blue hood over his head, getting animated only while giving credit to his teammates. He downplayed the idea of being an MVP candidate and making the All-Star Game. He reframed a question about performing in this heated environment, as someone who thrives on emotion.Advertisement“I’d like to say it’s passion rather than emotion,” Crow-Armstrong said. “I think passion is when you see, like, the real joy. Emotion kind of goes both ways, where it’s sometimes what takes me, anybody, out of a game. But, nah, starting the way we started today feels great. It’s nice seeing the crosstown fans leave early.”In what felt like a summer day at the Friendly […]
