3 at 3

Welcome to The Proposition’s 3 at 3. We had been on the lookout for a simple place to find a few picks a day to build a bankroll, round out some parlays, or attempt to beat any of the handful of prop sites out there, and to do so with as little excess junk as possible.

No analysis paralysis, no needless podcast banter, no endless embedded twitter links, just three picks every afternoon.

_______________________________________________

Yesterday’s Rapid Rundown: 1-2

W’s: Shane McClanahan comes through for the Rays and the Proposition, holding Toronto to 1 run in the First 5 innings. The offense did the rest, scoring 5 and sealing the victory.

L’s: Bad day in baseball, as both Matthew Boyd and Ben Lively pitched well. That is a sentence that I did not expect to write and I bet you did not expect to read. Time to start looking at K props again.

Promos to be aware of:

• PrizePicks currently has a Jokic points prop all the way down to .5, meaning that it is a free square. This appears to be open all the way until Game 1, so we can all take our time on this one.

• Sleeper has Jayson Tatum down to .5 Points for Game 5 tonight

Pick #1: Grant Williams | Over 10.5 Points + Rebs (-115)

Grant Williams has seen his minutes go from not even playing to 29 in the last 2 games. Besides his odd decision to provoke Playoff Jimmy, Williams has been a solid contributor off of the bench, and he's scoring in double figures in his last 3 games. Also worth noting, is that Williams is getting significantly more minutes than Sixth Man of the Year Malcolm Brogdon. Boston is going with him, and Williams is taking advantage of the opportunity. A stat line of 8 points and 3 boards is extremely reasonable.

 
Pick #2: Kyle Freeland | Over 2.5K s (-185)

To be clear I am playing this line at 3 on things like PrizePicks and Jock MKT Pick’em. Or you could pair this with Tatum on Sleeper. Freeland has gone over 2.5 Ks in 7 out of his 10 starts, and the Marlins have some big time K guys in their lineup. It won’t be pretty as the game is at Coors Field, but I think Freeland will stick around long enough to at least get 3 strikeouts.

Pick #3: Logan Gilbert | Over 17.5 Outs (-130)

I can’t say I totally get this one. Gilbert has topped this number in 6 out of his 9 starts this year. He’s been a very solid pitcher for the Mariners this year, and he gets to pitch against what is basically a AAA line-up vs. the A’s. He almost never goes 6+ innings, but I think it is very likely that he at least gets through 6, putting us at 18 outs exactly.

Record Year to Date: 50 - 41
