Looking for the best Underdog Fantasy MLB picks today? Our Underdog MLB Pick'em predictions for Sunday, May 3, 2026, spotlight two MLB player props worth targeting on today’s action-packed MLB slate. Ozzie Albies’ total bases and Zack Littell’s earned runs allowed 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 Ozzie Albies over 1.5 total bases and Zack Littell over 2.5 earned runs allowed. 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.

Ozzie Albies HIGHER than 1.5 Total Bases

During his impressive 14-game hit streak, he’s slashing .407/.433/.704 with nearly half of his hits going for extra bases! He’s walked more than he’s struck out during this run, and that .296 ISO is great when we are going for his total bases prop today. In typical Ozzie Albies fashion, he’s destroying left-handed pitching, to the tune of a .291 ISO, 1.059 OPS, and .453 wOBA.

Zack Littell HIGHER than 2.5 Earned Runs Allowed

Through 28.2 IP in 2026, Littell has pitched to a 7.85 ERA, 9.08 FIP, 4.08 HR/9, and 1.74 WHIP. To say the least, it’s been a rough start for the 30-year-old righty. He’s surrendered three earned runs and multiple home runs in four straight starts, and I’m really watching those Milwaukee left-handers against him today, seeing as lefties have a .794 SLG and .501 wOBA against Littell this season.

The Brewers have a 12.2 BB% and .327 wOBA against RHP this season, not to mention the fifth-lowest strikeout rate. Littell has pitched himself into bad situations all year, and the Brewers are just dangerous enough to punish Littell this afternoon.

UPDATE: Littell isn’t starting. If wanting to input a new slip, look at Braxton Ashcraft over 5.5 Strikeouts.
