Luis Gil Underdog MLB Picks Today, 4/26: Baseball Projections + More

Looking for the best Underdog Fantasy MLB picks today? Our Underdog MLB Pick'em predictions for Sunday, April 26, 2026, spotlight two MLB player props worth targeting on today’s action-packed MLB slate. Luis Gil’s strikeouts and Junior Caminero’s total bases 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?

Today’s two best Underdog Fantasy MLB Pick'em plays are Luis Guil under 4.5 strikeouts and Junior Caminero over 1.5 total bases. 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.

Luis Gil LOWER than 4.5 Strikeouts

Through three starts this season, Gil has a respectable 4.11 ERA and 1.17 WHIP, but the strikeouts have been non-existent. He’s recorded just nine strikeouts across 15.1 IP, good for a 13.8 K%. His 5.5 SwStr% and 85.1% contact rate indicate that the swings-and-misses just aren’t there, and aside from five punchouts against the Angels, who have the highest K% against RHP this season, he’s failed to record more than three strikeouts in a start.

The Astros have the fifth-lowest strikeout rate on the year against right-handed pitching, and I’ll also note that they have the fourth-highest walk rate against righties, and Gil has had issues with free passes this year. His pitch count could elevate quickly, and the swing-and-miss stuff just hasn’t been there for Gil thus far in 2026.

Junior Caminero HIGHER than 1.5 Total Bases

Caminero loves hitting at home, and that’s where he’ll be today. In his home park in 2026, he’s put forth an insane .310 ISO and .921 OPS! Furthermore, Caminero loves to see a right-handed pitcher on the bump, as seven of his eight home runs have come against righties, and he has a .549 SLG on the year against right-handers.

Minnesota will send Simeon Woods Richardson to the mound, who has posted a 5.96 ERA and 5.84 FIP through five starts. Right-handed hitters have a .491 SLG against him, and his K-BB% versus righties sits at zero point zero for the year! ZERO POINT ZERO!
