All odds as of May 26th at FanDuel.
Prop #1: 2+ Hits for Alex Kirilloff
The first prop to target is two or more hits for the Twins Alex Kirilloff. Minnesota’s right fielder has back-to-back multi-hit games, and is batting .500 against Baltimore this season. After a slow start to 2021, he’s racked up at least two hits in five of his past nine starts, and gets a favorable matchup against Jorge Lopez.

The Orioles righty has surrendered 13 hits in his past 7 innings of work, and boasts a WHIP above 1.40 for the eighth straight season.
Pick: Alex Kirilloff 2+ Hits (+200)
Prop #2: Carlos Rodon Over 7.5 Strikeouts
The next prop to target is the over on Carlos Rodon’s strikeout total. Rodon has racked up at least 8 K’s in four of his past five starts, and is fresh off whiffing 13 Yankee batters.

His K/9 rate is at a career high 13.08 through nearly two months, and he’s generating a swinging strike rate of 16.6%. The matchup versus St. Louis is no picnic, as the Cardinals are one of the more disciplined teams at the plate, but the plus money odds and Rodon’s recent form are too good to pass up.
Pick: Carlos Rodon Over 7.5 Strikeouts (+106)
