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. Here are our top two MLB stolen base picks today for Monday, May 25:

Favorite Bets: 

Luke Keaschall, Minnesota Twins (+396)

Keaschall may not be the most dynamic hitter on the Twins, but he handles left-handed pitching like a champ. We’re talking about a .353 OBP and some fantastic plate discipline against southpaws. Not only is Keaschall striking out at less than a 17-percent clip against lefties, but he’s also got an 11.8-percent walk rate. And once he gets on-base, he’s gone, notching five stolen bases against them. White Sox lefty Anthony Kay is not only allowing a .404 wOBA to righthanded hitters, but he’s also sporting an 11.7-percent walk rate against them. And the walk numbers are even worse at Guaranteed Rate Field.

Oneil Cruz, Pittsburgh Pirates (+428)

Always a risk, especially with the number of strikeouts Cruz puts up, but I’m willing to risk it for the biscuit here against righthander Ben Brown. Albeit a limited sample size, Cruz has three hits in four at-bats against Brown. The simple fact that he sees the ball coming out of his hand well. He owns a .323 wOBA against righthanded pitching with 14 of his 16 steals coming against them. With Brown allowing six stolen bases (third-most on the slate) and the Cubs catchers combining for just a 20-percent caught-stealing rate, the risk is more than worth the reward.
