Happy Tuesday! The Blue Jays celebrated Canada Day by hosting the Yankees earlier this afternoon, but the rest of today’s 15-game MLB slate will take place at 6:40 p.m. ET or later. Of course, that means that bettors have plenty of time to find a few plays to their liking ahead of first pitch this evening.
As always, be sure to monitor our MLB starting lineups page throughout the day, as unexpected changes in the batting order can result in value opportunities in the betting and DFS markets.
Another reminder – it’s not a bad beat, or unlucky, if you bet a player to hit a home run and his fly ball dies on the warning track because it’s 40 degrees with the wind blowing in! Before locking in any bets, use our MLB weather page, curated by Chief Meteorologist, Kevin Roth. There are countless edges to be found if we make the right reads on possible rain delays and great hitting weather, just to name a few. Taking a look at the weather report can save us from a bad bet that otherwise looks good on the surface.
Below, you can find my 3 picks for Tuesday, July 1st!

Best MLB Player Props for Tuesday, July 1
Here are my top player prop bets for today, with the first pitch scheduled for 6:40 PM ET on Tuesday, July 1st:
- Tyler Anderson Over/Under 2.5 Earned Runs Allowed
- Zac Gallen Over/Under 17.5 Outs Recorded
- Juan Soto Over/Under 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs
Tyler Anderson UNDER 2.5 Earned Runs Allowed (+115, bet365)
BET365During June, Anderson struggled to a 6.93 ERA, allowing 4+ earned runs in 4 of his 5 turns through the rotation. That being said, his 4.47 FIP and reasonably respectable contact-quality metrics suggest that he was probably deserving of slightly better outcomes in that span. He gets to face an Atlanta lineup that has been underwhelming against southpaws in recent weeks. It wouldn’t be surprising to see Anderson find some success.
Zac Gallen OVER 17.5 Outs Recorded (-145, BetMGM)
BETMGMGallen has allowed a lot of runs lately, but he’s still been one of the most efficient pitchers in baseball of late, averaging only 3.49 pitches per batter faced across the last month of action. Not all of his underlying metrics look terrible either. He pounded the strike zone in June, throwing 74.8% first-pitch strikes, but he missed his location more frequently than he would have liked. Still, he hasn’t allowed a tremendous number of line drives or fly balls, so a little bit better luck on balls in play could help him significantly. Perhaps most importantly here is the fact that Arizona’s arm barn is taxed ahead of first pitch tonight. Arizona needs length from Gallen regardless of how effective he is against the Giants. He should be afforded every opportunity to get through 6 innings.
Juan Soto OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-110, BetMGM)
As good as Freddy Peralta has been in 2025, he still allows a high rate of traffic on the basepaths when facing left-handed hitters. This season, he has an 11.2% walk rate and 1.26 WHIP across the platoon, which makes a matchup with someone like Soto all the more difficult to navigate. Peralta struggles to miss bats against left-handed hitters, which could mean runners on base ahead of Soto, especially with Francisco Lindor in the leadoff spot tonight for the Mets. This is good value for a very talented hitter.
