Welcome to our PrizePicks MLB DFS prop picks for Monday, August 14, 2023. The 2023 MLB season is underway here at RotoBaller, and we have you covered with some terrific plays from our friends over at PrizePicks.
PrizePicks is a great DFS fantasy picks 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. 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.
Announcement: We have two awesome new Props Optimizers for the MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, and NCAA! The PrizePicks Optimizer and Prop Bets Optimizer are both available in our new Props Premium Package, which includes exclusive access to RotoBaller's VIP Discord chat rooms for props and betting.

PrizePicks Over/Under DFS Props Contests
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 the MLB, Single Stat consists of pitcher strikeout props in which you determine if the pitcher in question will go over or under their projected strikeout total.
You can mix and match players from different types of games 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. Let's see what the board offers today!
MLB DFS Props - Over/Under Picks for Today
Be sure to also check out our brand new PrizePicks Optimizer tool and the free PrizePicks DFS Props Tool to see more recommended picks.
Max Fried less than 5.5 strikeouts
Max Fried will be up against the Yankees, who are only posting a 21.5% K rate vs. left-handers over the previous three weeks. What is most concerning here is the 173 wRC+ mark the Yankees are posting over that same span. Fried recently returned from the IL and has yet to eclipse the 80-pitch mark in his first two starts, which could lead to an early exit yet again tonight.
Patrick Sandoval more than 5.0 strikeouts
Patrick Sandoval has struck out six or more batters in five of his previous nine starts. He will be up against a tough offense in the Rangers; however, they are posting a 27.5% K rate vs. left-handers over the previous three weeks, which ranks the fifth-worst in baseball. They are also posting a 125 wRC+ mark over this same span. There is the potential for damage to be done against Sandoval, which makes this somewhat of a risky play.
Max Scherzer more than 7.5 strikeouts
Although Max Scherzer has eclipsed this total in just one of his last six starts, he had eclipsed it in each of the four starts prior to those. He has a solid matchup against the Angels tonight as well. Over the previous three weeks, the Angels are posting the fourth-highest K rate vs. right-handers with a rate of 27.7%. They are also posting a sub-100 wRC+ mark and pairing that with a walk rate of just 7% over that same span.
