-DET Tigers v Athletics Over 11.0 (-105) | 0.25 Units

‍

Why These Picks?

‍

PHI Phillies v BAL Orioles: Right now, the Phillies have Andrew Painter (7.06 ERA) listed to start this game in some places…and “TBD” listed in others. That said, if Philadelphia goes ahead with Painter on the road, I’m undoubtedly on the Orioles to bag a win. Baltimore starter Brandon Young (3.13 ERA) has had an impressive season at 8-2, while Painter is currently 0-3 on the road. To boot, 4 of Young’s last 5 starts have resulted in a win for the Orioles. My money’s on Baltimore to snag a victory this evening.

‍

DET Tigers v Athletics: The Tigers have yet to name a starting pitcher, but if Jeffrey Springs is starting for the As, I don’t doubt Detroit’s offense will run up a score pretty quick. I also can’t imagine that the Tigers decide to use one of their good arms against Springs, in which case I like the As to put more than a few on the board. I’ll toss a sprinkle on the Over to cash.

‍

KC Royals v COL Rockies: Tomoyuki Sugano (4.69 ERA) might be the best thing that the Rockies have going for them – Sugano is a solid 6-2 at home, and 4 of his last 5 starts have resulted in a win for Colorado. I'm on the home squad to bag a win tonight.

‍

DET Tigers v Athletics: The Tigers have yet to name a starting pitcher, but if Jeffrey Springs is starting for the As, I don’t doubt Detroit’s offense will run up a score pretty quick.

Coffee, conversation & today’s best bet.

First Sips

Good morning/afternoon, friends! My first sip of coffee is coming far later than I’d like it to today – and it certainly doesn’t taste as good as days prior. Am I salty about that Minnesota Twins walk-off Grand Slam in the 9th inning yesterday? Absolutely. The Twins did sweet f*** all for the entire game, and then at the very end, decided to win it by one (4-3 final). Unbelievable outcome for Pick of the Day…but it did make me feel better about the pick overall 😂 If they’d done…well, literally anything for the other 8 innings we’d have cashed. Oh well, that’s the way it goes sometimes. But, let’s not dwell, it’s a new day! Here’s what I like for this afternoon…

Pick of the Day

Right now, the Phillies have Andrew Painter (7.06 ERA) listed to start this game in some places…and “TBD” listed in others. That said, if Philadelphia goes ahead with Painter on the road, I’m undoubtedly on the Orioles to bag a win. Baltimore starter Brandon Young (3.13 ERA) has had an impressive season at 8-2, while Painter is currently 0-3 on the road. To boot, 4 of Young’s last 5 starts have resulted in a win for the Orioles. My money’s on Baltimore to snag a victory this evening.

Today's Picks

-MIN Twins -1.5 (+140) | 0.5 Units

-MIA Marlins v NY Mets Over 7.0 (-105) | 0.25 Units

-SEA Mariners v LA Dodgers Over 8.5 (-120) | 0.25 Units

-LA Dodgers Team Total Over 4.5 (-115) | 0.25 Units

‍

Why These Picks?

‍

KC Royals v MIN Twins: Another big plus-money adventure, friends – but I like it too much not to make it Pick of the Day. Minnesota starter Bailey Ober (4.56 ERA) is an impressive 5-0 at home, and is far better on his own turf than his overall ERA suggests. Meanwhile, the Royals actually haven’t lost by 2+ since returning from the All-Star Break, but Kansas City pitcher Noah Cameron (4.93 ERA) is just 1-5 on the road, and 4 of his last 5 starts have resulted in a loss for the Royals. Kansas City managed to shutout the Twins last night, but I won’t be surprised if they return the favour this afternoon. I’m on Minnesota to cover the RL for a nice pay day.

‍

MIA Marlins v NY Mets: This is a very achievable total for these batting lineups; and to be honest, while both starters have had some solid outings lately, both are also capable of having a meltdown (lol). Worst case scenario I think we get a Push on this one, but I think this matchup goes to 8. I’m on the Over to hit.

‍

SEA mariners v LA Dodgers: Bryan Woo (4.37 ERA) hasn’t been anywhere near reliable lately enough for me to think this game stays Under 8.5; to boot, the man is a mere 1-7 on the road. I don’t think the Dodgers offense will have any issue putting 5 runs+ on the board here, so I’m doubling down – I’ll take the game total Over to cash, as well as the Dodgers to put more than 4.5 in the bag.
