A key advantage of our Action PRO picks, predictions and analysis is to quickly and efficiently handicap an entire slate of games to find the smartest possible bets.
This is not only valuable for bettors who don’t have hours to break down a full day’s worth of games, but also for those who prioritize value over the matchup.
For example, college football Week 0 will surely drive the largest handle on a per-game basis today with the majority of casual bettors jumping at the chance to finally bet on meaningful football again.
However, there are still 15 games on the MLB odds board for Saturday, and who’s to say that baseball is offering more value than college football today?
Well, Action PRO is to say, that’s who.
So while the masses will be jumping on college football this afternoon, savvy bettors aren’t necessarily passing on baseball, either.
Specifically, there are two strikeout props popping off the board for Saturday’s slate.
2 Smartest Picks Based on Saturday MLB Odds
*Odds as of Saturday morning
Will Warren Over/Under 6.5 Strikeouts
2:05 p.m. ET | COLR
Will Warren’s over/under for strikeouts on Saturday sits at 6.5, though Action PRO’s projections have this number much lower at 4.68.
The difference between our projection and the latest line results in an extremely beefy 26.2% edge — the largest of Saturday’s MLB slate as of the time of writing.

Blake Snell is no stranger to Action PRO’s player prop projection edges and that is the case once again today.
