The Rangers maintained their perfect road record this postseason, improving to 9-0 following their 3-1 win over the Diamondbacks in Game 3 of the World Series. Texas looks to take a commanding 3-1 series lead in Game 4, leaning on lefthander Andrew Heaney (10-6, 4.15 ERA, 4.56 xFIP) as the team's initial out-getter opposite Arizona southpaw Joe Mantiply (2-2, 4.62 ERA, 4.21 xFIP).
With neither started expected to work deep into tonight's matchup, expect numerous pitchers to toe the rubber. While tonight's game comes with plenty of variance, there are several actionable player props available on SuperDraft.
SuperDraft users can win 3X the amount wagered if their two-legged player prop parlay hits. Consequently, the more legs you add to your player prop parlay, the larger your potential payout becomes, but as the long odds indicate, completing a clean sweep is challenging. If you were to put down a $20 entry fee and all four of our props below hit, you'd get a $200 payout.

Below, we'll break down four of our favorite player props on SuperDraft for Game 4 of the World Series. Users don't necessarily have to parlay all four picks together, though. Instead, you could make separate two-legged parlays to increase your win probability or attempt to hit it big if all four picks come through.
Best MLB prop bets today: SuperDraft player prop picks for Diamondbacks-Rangers Game 4
*10x potential payout if users parlay all four correct picks
1. Corbin Carroll, RF, Diamondbacks - OVER 0.5 singles
Despite starting his day at the dish against a southpaw in Heaney, we'll back the Diamondbacks No. 2 hitter to total at least one single. From an average perspective, there isn't much of a dropoff in Carroll's righty/lefty hitting splits, as he's compiled a .283 average against lefties compared to a .286 average against righties.
In Carroll's lone at-bat against Heaney in Game 2, he stayed on top of an elevated fastball, recording an RBI single to the opposite field. Although Texas likely utilizes a plethora of arms tonight, there's a chance Carroll sees Heaney two times, and considering Heaney isn't an overly powerful arm (51st percentile in strikeout rate), we'll take our chances on the soon-to-be NL Rookie of the Year getting the job done for our first leg.

2. Corey Seager, SS, Rangers - OVER 0.5 singles
We'll also back the World Series MVP frontrunner to match Carroll with at least one single. Seager broke open Monday's Game 3 contest with a two-run shot to right field, continuing to be aggressive on the first pitch.
Seager's registered a 52.2-percent swing rate on first pitches this season, good for a .336 average and a .701 slugging percentage. Look for Seager to continue his aggressive nature early in the count, hopefully resulting in a single off Mantiply, a pitcher he's totaled two singles against in four career at-bats.

3. Christian Walker, 1B, Diamondbacks - OVER 5 fantasy hitting points
On top of hitting just .173 (nine-for-52) this postseason as a relied-upon middle-of-the-order bat in the Snakes' lineup, Walker's unfortunate base-running blunder in the second inning of Monday's Game 2 loss was a momentum crusher.
After the game, Walker took complete ownership of his mistake, telling reporters postgame that he "never saw the stop sign." While third base coach Tony Perezchica did relay a rather late stop sign, Walker's professionalism in taking the blame hopefully results in some good hitting karma.
Despite wanting to bet on him to make amends for yesterday's mistake, his impressive track record against Heaney speaks for itself. Albeit a tiny sample size (three at-bats), Walker's two hits have both been home runs, boasting a 2.667 slugging percentage with a 3.333 OPS. Walker's ability to barrel up Heaney's fastball, a pitch he throws 57 percent of the time, boosts Walker's chances of having a strong night at the plate.
4. Ketel Marte, 2B, Diamondbacks - UNDER 1.5 bases
Marte extended his postseason hitting streak to 19 games when second baseman Marcus Semien couldn't handle a 105.8-mph liner in the sixth inning. While Marte's been the hottest hitter on the planet the past few weeks (we see you, too, Adolis Garcia), we're fading the noise by taking his UNDER 1.5 total bases prop.
Although he's made hitting a baseball look like a piece of cake en route to becoming the MLB's postseason hit streak leader, we're selling high on Marte in Game 4.
