MLB Player Prop Picks (Pitching Props) 9/23/2025 Today’s MLB Picks

Sony Gray Over 5.5 K’s 
St. Louis Cardnials vs San Francisco Giants 9:45 PM EST

Gray comes into this one with a 14–8 record with a 4.33 ERA and 1.23 WHIP, while striking out 194 batters in 174.2 innings pitched. His strikeout rate stood at 26.8%, and he maintained a solid 5.0% walk rate, indicating effective control and command on the mound. His strikeout abilities have picked up as of late, logging 6+ K’s in 4 of his last 5 starts. The Giants rank 11th in the league in average strikeout rate. With this game also being played at Oracle Park, which is a pitcher-friendly ballpark, I expect him to continue his success.

Matthew Boyd Under 2.5 Earned Runs
Chicago Cubs vs New York Mets 8:05 PM EST

Matthew Boyd had a standout 2025 MLB season with the Chicago Cubs, earning his first All-Star selection and solidifying his role as a key contributor to the team’s pitching staff. In 30 starts, he posted a 13–8 record with a 3.20 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, and 151 strikeouts over 174.1 innings pitched. Boyd’s performance was particularly strong at home, where he achieved a 2.45 ERA across 14 starts, allowing only 65 hits in 84.1 innings. He has another good matchup in this one, going up against the Cubs, who have struggled against left-handed pitching.
