With hundreds of MLB player props available on any given day, choosing which markets to participate in is always a challenge for MLB bettors. You can bet totals for hits, runs, RBI, total bases, home runs and much more, but targeting starting pitching matchups is always a popular strategy for betting MLB props. Brewers vs. Marlins is tied for the league low with the over/under listed at seven runs on Wednesday and that low-scoring battle could bear fruit if you're playing MLB pitching props.
Brewers starter Freddy Peralta and Marlins starter Jesus Luzardo both have their over/under for total strikeouts listed at 6.5 in the latest MLB prop odds. So which side should you be playing for those respective pitchers, and what other MLB prop markets should you be targeting? Before betting any MLB player props for Wednesday's action, you need to see the MLB prop predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.

Top MLB player prop bets for Wednesday
After examining the dozens of MLB player props for Wednesday's games, the model predicts that Braves OF/DH Marcell Ozuna goes over 0.5 RBI for a +109 payout. Ozuna blasted a career-high 40 home runs with 100 RBI while slashing .278/.346/.558 in 2023 and he's been even better so far in 2024.
Over his first 45 games, Ozuna is slashing .325/.405/.633 with 14 home runs (leading the National League) and 43 RBI, and he's been ratcheting up the intensity of late. The 33-year-old Dominican slugger enters Wednesday's contest against the Cubs on a 14-game hitting streak where he's posted a 1.221 OPS with five home runs and 11 RBI.
Ozuna has a staggering 1.129 OPS against left-handed pitching this season and he'll take on Cubs lefty Justin Steele on Wednesday. Steele has a 5.21 ERA on the season and has yielded five home runs in his last two starts. Those are big reasons why the model is projecting 0.8 RBI on average for Ozuna, rating the Over as a 4.5-star play. See more MLB props here.
