MLB Player Prop Picks 8/16/2025 Today’s MLB Picks (American League Batter Props)

Vladimir Guerrero Over 1.5 Total Bases

Toronto Blue Jays vs Texas Rangers 3:07 PM EST

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is having an exceptional season with the Toronto Blue Jays. He boasts a .300 batting average, ranking tied for 8th in the American League, and has accumulated 20 home runs and 67 RBIs, placing him among the league’s top 35 in both categories. His on-base percentage stands at .397, while his slugging percentage is .496, leading to an impressive .893 OPS, which ranks 10th in the league. He has recorded 2+ bases in 6 of his last 7 games and has been dominant at home this season. This should be another great spot for Guerrero to have a big game going against Patrick Corbin.

Julio Rodriguez Over 1.5 Total Bases

Seattle Mariners vs New York Mets 4:10 PM EST

Julio Rodríguez is having another impressive season with the Seattle Mariners. In 121 games, he is batting .259 with 129 hits, 24 home runs, 67 RBIs, 80 runs scored, and 23 stolen bases. His on-base percentage stands at .315, slugging percentage at .457, and an OPS of .772. He boasts an average exit velocity of 91.6 mph, a hard-hit rate of 46.9%, and a barrel percentage of 9.7%. He’ll be going up against Mets starter McLean, who’s making his MLB debut. I expect the top of the Mariners lineup to take advantage of McLean’s inexperience and put him in tough positions. 

Brent Rooker Over 1.5 Total Bases

Athletics vs Los Angeles Angels 10:05 PM EST

Brent Rooker is having a standout season with the Oakland Athletics. In 123 games, he boasts a .272 batting average, 24 home runs, 70 RBIs, and 76 runs scored. His on-base percentage is .345, slugging percentage .494, and OPS .839, all ranking among the top 30 in the American League. He has a great matchup in this game, going against Tyler Anderson and this undesirable Angels bullpen. Brent Rooker has been strong at home this season, and with this total being set at 10, I expect a lot of success from Rooker and the rest of the Athletics lineup.
