Why These Picks?
SF Giants v ATL Braves: I say the Braves win this one by at least two. Giants starter Justin Verlander (4.99 ERA) is an abysmal 0-8, and San Francisco has lost his last 5 straight starts by at least two runs. After yesterday's shutout, the Atlanta offense will be eager to clap back and snag a healthy win. Take the Braves to cover the RL.
NY Mets v LA Angels: It looks like the Angels are running a bullpen game today, friends – and to be honest, I like NY’s chances to rack up a score. With a current bullpen ERA of 5.06, the Mets should be able to put more than a few on the board here. While I don't loooove the -130 return, I’ll put a sprinkle on the Team Total Over to hit.
BAL Orioles v CLE Guardians: These two squads have cashed the Over in both games of this series so far, and I have no doubt they do the same today. I’ll be honest – I don’t love this evening’s starters. Guardians pitcher Slade Cecconi (3.84 ERA) gave up 6 runs to the Athletics in his last outing, while Baltimore starter Zach Eflin (5.95 ERA) has given up a whopping 17 runs over his last 3 starts. I know the Orioles have been pretty terrible since returning from the break, but they tend to put enough runs on the board to contribute to a high-scoring affair. To boot, the last 6 straight encounters between the Orioles and Guardians in Cleveland have seen at least 9 runs. My money’s on the Over to hit here, friends.
CHI White Sox v TB Rays: The White Sox have put an obscene number of runs on the board since coming back from the All-Star break. Having racked up 38 runs over their last 5 games and cashing the over in 4 of those 5, I’d say there’s a high chance this encounter sees a healthy total. Chicago starter Jonathan Cannon has allowed 16 hits over his last 3 outings and the Over has cashed in 4 of his last 5 starts. My money’s on a high-scoring affair between these two squads, friends.
