Free MLB player props, odds for June 21: Use James Wood, Emerson Hancock, Pete Alonso for Saturday MLB picks

SPORTIVO
Article arrow_drop_down

The 2022 Juan Soto trade is paying dividends for the Washington Nationals. One of the key pieces acquired in the trade with the San Diego Padres was left fielder James Wood. The 22-year-old has been playing like a cagey veteran in one of baseball’s toughest divisions in the National League East. Through 76 games this season, he is hitting .279 with 19 doubles, 20 homers, 56 RBI and nine stolen bases. SportsLine’s model forecasts Wood to go over 0.5 total bases, projecting 1.8 total bases and rates this as a five-star pick. Also, check out our Dodgers vs. Nationals picks for Saturday, along with our top MLB parlay picks and top home run picks

Targeting MLB player props is one way to approach MLB betting on Saturday’s MLB schedule at online sports betting sites. 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 picks. They can also help new users take advantage of sportsbook promos like the latest Fanatics Sportsbook promo code:

The model simulates every game 10,000 times and is on a 37-30 run on all top-rated MLB picks. The model is up 21.85 units on home run prop picks over the last 73 days. Now, the model and SportsLine’s team of Data Scientists have revealed their projections for some of the most-bet MLB player props on Saturday. You can also check out our Saturday MLB home run picks.

Best Saturday MLB player prop picks:

  • James Wood, Nationals, over 0.5 total bases (-172)
  • Emerson Hancock, Mariners, under 3.5 total earned runs (+125)
  • Pete Alonso, Mets over 0.5 RBI (+105)
  • Parlay these picks for +607 odds with a Caesars Sportsbook promo code (odds subject to change)

James Wood, Nationals, over 0.5 total bases (-172)

Wood has hits in seven of his past 11 games, including five multi-hit performances during that stretch. In an April series against the Dodgers, he went 4-for-10 with three homers and seven RBI. In a series against the New York Mets earlier this month, Wood hit a blistering .500 in the series, going 6-for-12. In Thursday’s win over the Colorado Rockies, he homered twice in five at-bats for four RBI. Additionally, the Dodgers staff has the 21st-best ERA in MLB at 4.19, and has allowed 97 home runs on the year, eighth-worst in MLB, and third-worst in the National League. SportsLine’s model projects 1.8 total bases for Wood, and a BetMGM bonus code could pay up to $1,500 in bonus bets if your first wager loses.

Emerson Hancock, Mariners, under 3.5 total earned runs (+125)

Although Seattle is visiting Wrigley Field, where temperatures could reach the 90s and the wind is blowing out, Hancock has been dominant over his past six starts. Since May 17, he has not allowed more than three earned runs in any one start, and has allowed three or fewer earned runs in 10 of 12 starts this season. In last Sunday’s 6-0 win over the Cleveland Guardians, he pitched seven innings, while allowing just two hits and one walk, while striking out four. Hancock has achieved six unders in his last seven games on the road, giving up an average of 2.0 total earned runs per game. The projection model forecasts 2.1 earned runs for Hancock, giving this a five-star rating. You could add even more value to this MLB prop with the latest DraftKings promo code:

Pete Alonso, Mets, over 0.5 RBI (+105)

Playing against top-notch competition and in key situations tends to bring out the best in Pete Alonso. With first-place in the National League East on the line this weekend, Alonso is already off to a solid start. In Friday’s 10-2 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies, he was 1-for-3 with a homer. In 76 games this season, Alonso is hitting .291 with 22 doubles, one triple, 18 homers and 64 RBI. In 95 career games against Philadelphia, Alonso has 18 homers and 59 RBI. Alonso has also gone over his total bases market in seven of his last 10 games when facing opponents with a middle third-rated defense, with an average of 2.3 total bases per game. Alonso’s projected for 2.1 total bases overall, and this MLB player prop can be wagered on with the latest FanDuel promo code.

UFC Fight Night results: Khalil Rountree Jr. bests Jamahal Hill in Baku, remains relevant in title picture

What was expected to be a slugfest between elite light heavyweights on Saturday turned into a tentative, technical affair that played directly into the hands of Khalil Rountree Jr.In the main event of UFC's inaugural trip to Azerbaijan, Rountree (14-6, 1 NC) showcased everything he learned from a gutsy title loss to Alex Pereira last October by patiently accruing a trio of knockdowns against former champion Jamahal Hill (12-4, 1 NC) in a commanding victory via unanimous decision (49-46, 50-45 twice) inside Baku Crystal Hall. CBS Sports also scored the UFC Fight Night headliner 49-46 for Rountree. "I didn't come in here underestimating Jamahal. I had full belief in myself and my abilities but I didn't underestimate him," Rountree said. "The plan was to be smart. I had made some mistakes in the Alex fight. In this one, I was able […]

Fever star Caitlin Clark says historic All-Star voting returns is ‘exactly what the league needs’

Fan voting for the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game opened earlier this month and runs through June 28. The league announced the first round of returns on Friday, and to no surprise the top of the list was dominated by Caitlin Clark and her Indiana Fever teammates.  Clark's 515,993 votes were the most of any player, followed by Minnesota Lynx star Napheesa Collier at 484,758. The top-two vote getters will be named captains and draft their teams on July 8, ahead of the All-Star Game in Indianapolis on July 19.  There were four Fever players in the top 10 -- Clark, Aliyah Boston (3rd), Kelsey Mitchell (7th) and Lexie Hull (9th) -- and eight in the top 40. The Liberty were the only other team that even had four players in the top 40. 2025 WNBA All-Star Game: Caitlin Clark, Napheesa […]

Mariners’ Cal Raleigh sets MLB records with 30th home run

CHICAGO — Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh homered in the ninth inning of a 10-7 loss to the Chicago Cubs on Saturday afternoon, his 30th long ball of the season. On Friday, Raleigh hit his 28th and 29th homers of the season, passing Cincinnati Reds Hall of Famer Johnny Bench with the most home runs by a catcher before the All-Star break. Raleigh now also has the mark for most home runs before the break by a switch-hitter.Advertisement“Thirty home runs is impressive,” Cubs manager Craig Counsell said. “And we’re not even at the halfway point. He’s good.”Catcher, switch-hitter or just any player, what Raleigh is doing is rare. Only eight other players had hit 30 or more home runs in their first 75 games of the season. The last to do it were Barry Bonds and Luis Gonzalez in 2001.Raleigh […]
