Our Underdog MLB Pick'em predictions for Friday, April 3, 2026, spotlight two MLB player props worth targeting on today’s action-packed MLB slate. Jeffrey Springs’ earned runs allowed and Andy Pages hits+runs+RBI both come with clear situational edges backed by current form, matchup data, and recent trends. If you are building your Underdog Pick'em entry for tonight's MLB slate, here is the full case for where we land on both and why the numbers set up the way they do.

What are the Best Underdog MLB Pick'em Picks Today?

Tonight's two best Underdog Fantasy MLB Pick'em plays are Jeffrey Springs over 2.5 earned runs and Andy Pages over 1.5 Hits+Runs+RBI. Both props are supported by matchup data, current streaks, and favorable line construction heading into an action-packed day of baseball. Read below for the complete analysis on each.

Jeffrey Springs OVER 2.5 Earned Runs Allowed

During his time in Tampa Bay, Springs was a plus strikeout arm. However, since coming to the Athletics, the strikeouts have completely disappeared. If he’s going to continue to allow a ton of contact, he’s in trouble against this Houston lineup, especially given the fact that this game is played in the super-hitter-friendly Sutter Health Park. For what it’s worth, he allowed a 5.09 FIP and .469 SLG when pitching at home last season, not to mention the fact that he allowed three or more earned runs in 10 of his 15 home starts.

This Houston lineup has been absolutely phenomenal against southpaws to begin the season, posting the league’s best 175 wRC+ and .250 ISO. They are tied for the league lead in runs scored, and only the Braves, Angels, and Pirates have more home runs as a team than Houston. Things aren’t setting up well for Springs in this one, so take the over and continue to believe in this surging Houston offense.

Andy Pages OVER 1.5 Hits+Runs+RBI

Pages is off to a hot start to begin the season, hitting .429 with a 1.048 OPS across 21 ABs. Furthermore, he’s punished right-handed pitching, to the tune of a .500 average and 1.250 OPS! Pages has notched three straight multi-hit efforts, and he gets a great matchup against Miles Mikolas. The Washington right-hander surrendered four earned runs on six hits in his season debut against the Cubs, and he really struggled with right-handed hitters in that matchup (.300 BAA, .439 wOBA, -7.7 K-BB%).

With noticeably strong winds (10+ mph) blowing out on a warm Washington afternoon, ride the hot hand with Pages.
