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. We’ve got an interesting group of notable base-stealers at shorter odds, so here are our top two MLB stolen base picks today for Wednesday, September 9:

Favorite Bets: 

Chandler Simpson, Tampa Bay Rays (+167) – It’s a little cheap with the short odds and Simpson swiping his 40th bag of the season yesterday, but the guy’s on a roll with hits in six of his last eight games and a stolen base in each of his last two. Normally we’d back off, but he’s facing righty Reynaldo Lopez and has a .361 OBO against righties. He’s also going to be facing Drake Baldwin and his dismal eight-percent caught-stealing rate. That’s a win, baby! 

Kevin McGonigle, Detroit Tigers (+780) – With the run we are on, we can afford to take a few chances here and there, right? Play it safe with Simpson; have some fun with McGonigle. We tried him out a few days ago, and he homered instead of stealing a base, so a losing bet, but we knew he was in a good matchup. Today, he takes his .395 OBP against righties and faces Zebby Matthews. But more importantly, he’s got Victor Caratini and his 13-percent caught-stealing mark over 47 attempts. We’ll lean into this and keep our fingers crossed for an immense hit at these odds.
