Tuesday’s 15-game MLB slate will begin at 6:40 p.m. ET, with action spread throughout the evening.

As always, make sure to keep an eye on the MLB weather report before committing to any wagers. The most notable weather of the night could be at Wrigley Field, with cooler temperatures and pitcher-friendly winds potentially making runs hard to come by for hitters.

Below, you can find three of my favorite picks for Tuesday, June 2nd!

Best MLB Player Props for Tuesday, June 2nd

Here are my top player prop bets for today, with the first pitch scheduled for 6:40 PM ET on Tuesday, June 2nd:

Steven Matz OVER 14.5 Outs Recorded (-170, Novig)

Matz has gone under this number in both of his outings since being activated from the injured list, but he’s built up to 67 pitches and 18 batters faced in that span. After Griffin Jax was hit around on Monday, it would make sense for Tampa Bay to do what they can to get some length from Matz in this spot. Matz should see north of 20 batters faced, with the goal being to get him through 5 innings, hoping to reset their arm barn to some extent.

Brandon Lowe OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-118, BetMGM)

Mike Burrows has struggled to a 6.50 FIP and 1.80 WHIP across the platoon in 2026. Lowe has demolished right-handed pitching to the tune of a 167 wRC+ and .969 OPS. Lowe makes a fair amount of contact, and the contact that he does make often results in extra bases. This is great value on Tuesday night.

Bryan Reynolds OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-129, BetMGM)

If looking for a player to stack with Lowe this evening, Reynolds could be that guy. Reynolds has been on a tear of late, with a 282 wRC+ and more walks than strikeouts across his last 39 plate appearances. He has hit a pair of home runs and scored 9 times in that span. He’s positioned to take advantage of Burrows’ struggles against LHB.
