Julio Rodriguez Over 1.5 Total Bases

Seattle Mariners vs Baltimore Orioles 6:35 PM EST

As of August 12, 2025, Julio Rodríguez has been having an impressive season for the Seattle Mariners. He has hit 18 home runs and stolen 20 bases, maintaining a strong batting average of .290. His on-base percentage stands at .355, complemented by a slugging percentage of .510, resulting in an OPS of .865. Rodríguez’s combination of power and speed has been a key factor in the Mariners’ offensive success this year. Notably, on August 4, he made MLB history by becoming the first player ever to record at least 20 home runs and 20 stolen bases in each of his first four seasons. I like him to carry that momentum into this matchup against the Orioles, who have Dean Kremer on this mound, who has struggled with giving up hard contact. I can see Rodriguez going yard in this game.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Over 1.5 Total Bases

Chicago Cubs vs Toronto Blue Jays 7:07 PM EST

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is having a strong season with the Toronto Blue Jays. He is hitting .296 with 19 home runs and 64 RBIs, demonstrating solid power and run production. He’s coming off a massive game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he logged 6 total bases and has recorded 2+ bases in 4 of his last 5 outings. He has a favorable matchup in this game, going against Ben Brown, who has struggled this season and is one of the weaker links in this Cubs rotation. I expect Guerrero to come back to Toronto and have another solid outing. 

Maikel Garcia Over 1.5 Total Bases

Kansas City Royals vs Washington Nationals 7:40 PM EST

As of August 11, 2025, Maikel García is having a standout season with the Kansas City Royals. Over 413 at-bats, he boasts a .303 batting average, 11 home runs, and 51 RBIs. His on-base percentage is .354, and his slugging percentage is .470, giving him an OPS of .837. García has also contributed 20 stolen bases, showcasing his speed on the base paths. Garcia has been the Royals’ most consistent batter as of late, and it seems like every time he’s up to bat, he finds a way to get on base. He’s coming off a solid series where he logged 8+ total bases in a 3-game series against the Twins. He’ll be up against struggling Mitchell Parker and this bad Nationals bullpen. I don’t see this being the game he slows down.
