Dodgers vs. Padres MLB Player Props, Odds: Picks & Predictions for Wednesday
Major League Baseball's Opening Day is still a week away, but regular-season games get started with the Seoul Series, and we're looking at our top Dodgers vs. Padres player props based on the best MLB odds.
Before the regular season begins in earnest, the Los Angeles Dodgers will "visit" the San Diego Padres for MLB's two-game Seoul Series.
With two of the most high-profile baseball teams kicking off regular-season action a week early, we have plenty of stars to target with our favorite player props.
Serving as the "Opening Day" starters for these two teams are Tyler Glasnow for the Dodgers and Yu Darvish for the Padres.
Los Angeles features a truly terrifying lineup, with seven of its nine expected everyday players projected to hit at least 20 home runs this season.
Meanwhile, San Diego features plenty of firepower of its own, headlined by Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado, who are supported in the order by Xander Bogaerts and Ha-Seong Kim.
Which team's stars will shine under the spotlight in the South Korean capital?
In addition to our Shohei Ohtani MLB player props, here are our best Dodgers vs. Padres MLB player props and MLB picks (odds via our best MLB betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Dodgers vs. Padres predictions
Tyler Glasnow Over 6.5 strikeouts (+123 via BetRivers) ⭐⭐⭐
Newly acquired Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow is one of the most talented starting pitchers in the majors. His biggest issue throughout his career has been his relative inability to remain healthy. However, that shouldn't be a problem for the first game of the season.
Glasnow was lights-out during spring training, striking out 14 of the 36 batters he faced, good for an otherworldly 38.9% strikeout rate. He's expected to continue that dominance in his regular-season debut in Dodger blue.
All of our best sports betting sites have Glasnow's strikeout prop listed at 6.5, with BetRivers offering the best price on the Over at +123.
Based on the average projection between FantasyPros and Ballpark Pal of 6.85, we're getting nearly 18% positive expected value on this bet.
Let's start the MLB season with a bang by cashing on a nice plus-money strikeout Over by one of baseball's elite punchout artists.

Freddie Freeman Over 1.5 hits (+170 via BetRivers) ⭐⭐⭐
Freddie Freeman finished second in hits last season, behind only National League MVP Ronald Acuna Jr. We're expecting the Dodgers first baseman to get off to a hot start in Seoul.
Once again, we're getting the best price at BetRivers, which is offering odds roughly 10 points better than the majority of our other best sports betting apps.
Freeman owned the Padres last season, managing a .327 average in 13 games against the Dodgers' NL West rivals. Additionally, Freeman owns a lifetime .286 average against Darvish, with eight hits in 28 at-bats.
He's the only projected Dodgers starter who's experienced that level of success over a relatively decent sample size, as Mookie Betts, Max Muncy, and Will Smith have all struggled mightily against Darvish.
Freeman annihilated Kiwoom Heroes pitchers on Saturday, recording three hits in six at-bats. We're getting great plus-money odds for his bat to stay scorching-hot against the Padres.
Jason Heyward Over 0.5 total bases (-135 via ESPN BET) ⭐⭐⭐
We move away from this game's stars to target one of the Dodgers' valuable role players with our final prop.
Jason Heyward looked rejuvenated in Los Angeles last year following a couple of disappointing seasons with the Chicago Cubs. With Betts moving to shortstop this season, the Dodgers will rely on Heyward to serve as the primary right-fielder alongside James Outman and newly acquired Teoscar Hernandez.
Heyward didn't have an especially impressive spring, but he also looked very good against the Kiwoom Heroes, matching Freeman's three hits in that contest.
For those looking for a bigger potential payout at one of our best sportsbooks, BetRivers is offering Over 1.5 total bases at +175. However, based on the projections, ESPN BET's odds on Over 0.5 total bases are showing more value.
Most of our other sites with the best sportsbook promos are hovering around -140 or -145 for this prop, so be sure to shop around for the best price!
