MLB Friday calls for rain on the East Coast but with still plenty of value on the 15-Game slate. Let’s dive into our top MLB player prop bets for Friday, May 10.

Phillies Team Total over 3.5 runs (-135)

Line available at ESPNBET at time of publishing.

The Philadelphia Phillies 28 wins are the most in baseball at the moment, thanks in large part to their elite rotation and a star-studded lineup that is filled with power. Even with the loss of Trea Turner, they haven’t missed a beat. On Monday Night, the Phillies will battle the New York Mets on the road against LHP Sean Manaea and his 4.47 xERA.

Manaea, for the most part, dealt a gem in his last outing. He was throwing five shutout innings before the 6th inning came. He then imploded by allowing three runs on three hits and one walk. The bad news for Manaea is that went against the St. Louis Cardinals – one of the worst offenses in baseball. Now he gets a Phillies offense that ranks in the top 10 in nearly every major statistical hitting category against LHP.

ESPN is coming in with the best price at -135. The rest of the market is settling in at -145. I will also be sprinkling a ladder up to 5.5 – priced at +200 on FanDuel Sportsbook.

Kyle Schwarber (PHI) over 1.5 hits + runs + rbi (+105)

Line available at BetMGM at time of publishing.

If you’re uncomfortable having too much exposure on the Phillies offense, consider scaling down your units for this player prop. Nonetheless, I love Kyle Schwarber leading off tonight for the Phillies – where he’ll potentially get five at-bats.

Schwarber and his reverse splits should come in handy tonight against LHP Sean Manaea. Schwarber is hitting .328 versus LHP, including going over this number in five straight road Games – four of five Games with at least five plate appearances. Not having Trea Turner behind Schwarber hurts, but the guys behind Schwarber have made up for the loss. Whether J.T. Realmuto, Whit Merrifield, or Edmundo Sosa are in the two-hole, Bryce Harper and Alec Bohm will then follow – both playing at All-Star levels.
