Best MLB Stolen Base Picks Today:

Locking in the best stolen base predictions means finding the absolute perfect storm of a high-on-base runner and a weak battery. Without further ado, here are our top MLB stolen base picks today for Sunday, September 27th:

Favorite Bets: 

Nasim Nunez, Washington Nationals (+238)

Nunez needs one more for 50 stolen bases on the year, and in the final game, if he gets on base, why not let him take every possible opportunity to get to the big five-zero? For the year, his OBP against lefties (.320) is higher than against RHP (.279), thanks to a double-digit walk rate (12.8%) against southpaws. For what it’s worth, Nunez is 3-for-6 in his career against Manaea, and the Manaea/Francisco Alvarez battery has a 17% caught-stealing rate on the year.

Elly De La Cruz, Cincinnati Reds (+306)

Despite hitting just .235 over his last 10 games, a massive 20.9% walk rate has his OBP sitting at .395 during this stretch. He’s also 4-for-4 in stolen base attempts during the aforementioned stretch, and today’s matchup is a great one for stolen bases. Alejandro Kirk has a well below league average caught-stealing rate (13%), and the Scherzer-Kirk battery is 0-for-5 on the year in catching base stealers. Kirk’s ninth percentile pop time is no match for De La Cruz’s 78th percentile sprint speed this afternoon.
