Best MLB Player Props #1: Munetaka Murakami Chicago White Sox OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (+132)

Munetaka Murakami has covered this line in 3 of his first 5 playoff games including 2/3 games in this series against the Cleveland Guardians. Now Murakami gets another crack at Parker Messick who he’s gone 3-6 against with two home runs.

Messick utilizes his four-seam fastball on over 40% of his pitches and Murakami has hit 21 of his 35 home runs against that pitch. The White Sox lineup has thrived at home during the 2026 campaign and now they have a playoff game under their belt to shake off the rust. Murakami hit 20 of his home runs at Guaranteed Rate Field but we’ll be fine with an RBI single.

Best MLB Player Props #2: Steven Kwan Cleveland Guardians OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-110)

Steven Kwan has managed to clear this line in back-to-back games despite going only 2-10 in the process. Erick Fedde is expected to pitch the bulk of the workload in Game 4 and Kwan has gone 8-13 (.615) against him with a home run and a free pass.

Fedde pitched against the White Sox three times during the regular season with mixed results, but the Chicago bats are very familiar with him.

Hagen Smith is listed as the Chicago opener, and Kwan has gone 1-4 against him with a free pass. The Guardians lineup finally started cooking with a 9-run effort in Game 3 and players like Jose Ramirez and Jo Adell both had big games. That will only help Kwan’s case as he specializes on getting on base and getting into scoring position.
