MLB Player Bets for May 26: Top Picks Include Judge and Cruz
Explore notable MLB player prop bets for the upcoming games, highlighting Aaron Judge and Oneil Cruz as key picks for scoring.
The Memorial Day MLB schedule usually has several daytime matchups, posing challenges for finding player props. With only four night games on Monday, the options for runs props may be limited but include standout players such as Aaron Judge, Andrew McCutchen, Fernando Tatis Jr., and Oneil Cruz.
McCutchen has reached base safely 11 times in his last four outings, with runs scored in three. However, Cruz might be a better option for runs scored props, having five extra-base hits in his last four games, placing him in scoring position frequently. The Pirates are set to face the Diamondbacks at 8:10 p.m. ET.
Targeting scoring props is a popular betting strategy in MLB. With our SportsLine model projecting impressive returns, here’s the best of today’s runs scored player props:
- Aaron Judge Over 0.5 runs scored (-195)
- Oneil Cruz Over 0.5 runs scored (-135)
