Hello everybody and welcome! The 2021 MLB season is alive and well and that means our new friends over at PrizePicks have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play. On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.
Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the best, and easiest to win, MLB DFS games in the industry. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.
PrizePicks has two types of games. The first type of game is known as Fantasy Score, which consists of selecting various players and trying to determine if they will go over or under their projected fantasy points in a game. The second game is known as Single Stat. For MLB, Single Stat consists of pitcher strikeout props as well as hitter props in which you determine if the pitcher or hitter in question will go over or under their projected total. You can mix and match players from each type of game in your entry or select all of your plays from the same type of game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. Tonight, we will look at some fantasy score hitter props.

Fantasy Score MLB Totals
David Fletcher over 8.0 fantasy score - Fletcher will get a solid matchup this afternoon against Orioles' left-hander, Keegan Akin. Akin has been awful vs. right-handers in 2021 as he has posted a .330 BAA and allowed nine home runs and 12 doubles across facing 216 batters. Fletcher has done very well against lefties this season as he has posted a .370 average with two home runs and 12 doubles with just 10 strikeouts across 146 at-bats.
Anthony Santander over 7.5 fantasy score - We are sticking with the same game, but going to the other side of it and using Anthony Santander for the Orioles. He has been on a hot streak lately as noted by his 1.667 OPS with four home runs and three doubles across his previous 21 at-bats. He will be facing Jaime Barria who has allowed a .298 BAA to left-handed hitters as well as two home runs and three doubles across just 10 2/3 innings pitched to them.
Brandon Belt over 6.5 fantasy score - The Giants have an implied total over five runs tonight and Belt should hopefully be in the middle of that. He will be going up against Carlos Carrasco who has given up two home runs and nine earned runs to lefties across just eight innings pitched to them this season. Belt has been relatively hot over his previous 19 at-bats as he is posting a 1.100 OPS with three home runs.
Brandon Crawford over 5.5 fantasy score - We are going to stay with the Giants again here as Crawford has an incredibly low fantasy score of 5.5. Carrasco's struggles are mentioned above in the Brandon Belt writeup, so we do not need to cover those again, but Crawford has been solid lately as he is hitting .294 with two walks, two doubles, and three RBI over his previous 17 at-bats. He should be in the middle of the order and could go over this total with one swing of the bat tonight.
Overall Recommendation for this play: FLEX
