Player prop targets for today's MLB slate from BetMGM
Best MLB Player Prop Bets for Wednesday, Oct. 12
There are two games for Wednesday’s MLB playoff slate (Oct. 12), and we’ve identified a few favorable baseball player prop bets on BetMGM that you could consider ahead of today’s action.
Zack Wheeler Over 5.5 Ks (+110)
Philadelphia Phillies at Atlanta Braves, 4:35pm ET
Going into his second playoff start of the season, Wheeler has an ERA of 2.82 and WHIP of 1.04. He recorded 163 strikeouts in 26 regular-season games this year, including seven last time he faced the Braves. The pressure is on, but 5.5 Ks to continue Philadelphia’s incredibly impressive postseason run is definitely doable. At +110 for 5.5 Ks, the money is solid, so I like this prop a lot.

Mookie Betts Over 1.5 Bases (+120)
San Diego Padres at Los Angeles Dodgers, 8:37pm ET
Batting .269 with an OBP of .340, Betts has had a great season — and he recorded eight hits in his last seven regular-season games to prove he has no intention of slowing down. In the second Division Series game against the Padres, the Dodgers are likely to have their work cut out for them to stay on top, but I still think Betts should be able to heat up at the plate considering he didn’t show his stuff last night.
This will be San Diego pitcher Yu Darvish’s fourth time throwing to Betts this season, who managed to record a double the last time they met. With an ERA of 3.10 and WHIP of 0.95, Darvish isn’t going to make it easy, but I’m confident Betts can back up his solid year with two bases at home.
