Why These Picks?

‍

KC Royals v DET Tigers: It looks like Chris Paddack (5.10 ERA) will start for Detroit this evening, friends. I’m a big advocate of the Over on this game – Paddock has allowed 13 runs on 18 hits in just his last 3 starts. On the other side, Michael Wacha has been great lately; the Royals have won his last 5 straight starts, but the Over has cashed in both of his last 2 road outings. Wth the Tigers offense seemingly finding their footing again (they’ve cashed the Over in 5 of their last 6 games…) I say this encounter sees at least 9 runs. In addition, I'll throw a sprinkle on the underdog to pull off a victory.

‍

WAS Nationals v PHI Phillies: This game total should land on the moon. Phillies starter Aaron Nola (6.92 ERA) has allowed 19 runs in just his last 3 starts – and as a result, I think this victory is either team’s to claim. On the other side, Nationals starter Mitchell Parker (5.83 ERA) has allowed 15 runs in his last 3 outings. I’m whole-heartedly on the Over here, so much so that it’s basically “Pick of the Day 2”. I’ll toss a nice chunk of change on this one and make it another half unit play.

‍

COL Rockies v PIT Pirates: The Pirates are undoubtedly their best selves at home – and the Rockies are typically at their worst…well, all the time? Ha ha – I kid (sort of)! That said, 4 of Mike Burrows’ (4.46 ERA) last 5 starts have resulted in a loss for Pittsburgh; I’m not super confident that Colorado will just roll over here. To boot, the Over has cashed in the last 5 straight meetings between these two teams, and 8 runs is incredibly attainable should one pitcher [very likely] decide to melt early on. My money’s on another high-scoring affair here, betting fam.
