Welcome back to the best stolen base picks for today. It looks like we had ourselves another Dr. John kind of day as we were definitely in the right place, but we must’ve had the wrong guys with yesterday’s picks – Jorge Mateo was caught stealing, Henry Bolte had three hits and nary a stolen base attempt, while our free pick in the newsletter saw multiple bases stolen by multiple Nationals not named Jacob Young. Good thing we went 3-0 over on the Betting Playbook. Let’s turn things around on the bases and check in with the stolen base prop finder and try to bang out some more winning stolen base picks.

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 Tuesday, August 25:

Favorite Bets: 

Jose Caballero, New York Yankees (+289) – With the Ryan McMahon injury, Caballero is back to playing a more full-time role, which means we can turn back to him for some stolen base picks. He’s facing right-hander Ethan Pecko, who is not only highly inexperienced, but is also struggling against same-handed hitters. Caballero has 20 steals against righties this season, so look for him to test Yainer Diaz and his 21-percent caught-stealing rate.

Bryson Stott, Philadelphia Phillies (+365) – He’s had some recent struggles due to a foot injury, but Stott returned to yesterday’s lineup and found his way on-base. That’s good for us as he steps in against right-hander George Kirby, who has allowed a slate-high 20 stolen bases on the season. Stott is posting a .324 OBP and has 20 steals against righties already, so with some recent struggles and high contact rates for Kirby, we are dialed in. Cal Raleigh is also well below average with his caught-stealing rate.
