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 Monday, August 24:

Favorite Bets: 

Jorge Mateo, Tampa Bay Rays (+272) – Mateo has now been with the Rays for about a week and seems to be playing regularly with Ben Williamson out. This is a tough matchup as Chase Burns is an elite-level starter, but he’s still given up 21 stolen bases this year, and Mateo is still proving himself to the East Coast.  Couple that with the Reds catchers posting a 16.8-percent caught-stealing rate, and we’ve got some serious stolen base potential.

Henry Bolte, Athletics (+544) – Bolte has been playing regularly in recent weeks, and while he hasn’t swiped a bag since August 12, we’re in on him with this matchup. No, righty Zebby Matthews hasn’t allowed a ton of stolen bases, but Bolte has a .353 OBP against righties, and Victor Caratini is one of the absolute worst at throwing out our baserunners. Just a 13-percent caught-stealing rate off 45 attempts? Let’s get it.
