Today's Picks

-TB Rays v DET Tigers Over 7.5 (-120) | 0.5 Units

-SD Padres ML (-120) | 0.5 Units

‍

Why These Picks?

‍

TB Rays v DET Tigers: Not only have the Tigers been in rough shape lately, but Detroit starter Jackson Jobe’s (4.50 ERA) performance has been an absolute crapshoot. On the other side, the Rays are rolling with their bullpen this evening. With both offenses being incredibly capable, this game has all the potential in the world to see a double-digit total. I’m on the Over to hit.

‍

PIT Pirates v SD Padres: I hate to say it (do I?), but Paul Skenes (3.95 ERA) on the mound just has not equated to wins for the Pirates. In addition, Pittsburgh’s offense has struggled immensely. With the Padres being a solid 40-27 at home and starter Michael King (3.38 ERA) being the better arm in this matchup (at least lately…) I think San Diego locks down a victory here. To boot, 4 of King’s last 5 home outings have resulted in a Padres win. I’m on the San Diego ML here, friends.

Coffee, conversation & today’s best bet.

First Sips

Good morning, friends. Happy Tuesday! Hilarious “first sips” gripe: I ordered a brand new couch/sectional to ring in the start of NFL season, and it was supposed to get delivered tomorrow. I wake up this morning, check tracking, and boom – couch delivery delayed until the 31st! WTF! Granted, it’ll still be here long before kick off, but I’m real salty at the moment. Rant over. ANYWAY…shoutout to the Minnesota Twins and the Athletics for cashing Pick of the Day last night! It was a bit of a sweat there at the end, but I’m so glad we got paid. Here's what I've got for today...

Today's Picks

-MIN Twins v Athletics Over 10.5 (-115) | 0.5 Units

-CIN Reds -1.5 (+115) | 0.25 Units

‍

Why These Picks?

‍

MIN Twins v Athletics: The Over has cashed easily in Jeffrey Springs’ (6.02 ERA) last 3 straight starts, friends – one of which included a game against Minnesota (final score 11-8). Between Springs and the Athletics bullpen, this game should find itself well beyond 11 runs. On the other side, Twins starter Zebby Matthews (5.12 ERA) is sporting a healthy 7.13 ERA away from home. I’m on the Over to cash today.

‍

CIN Reds v SF Giants: Chase Burns (2.51 ERA) is undoubtedly Cincinnati’s resident Ace, and starter Carson Whisenhunt (7.03 ERA) has been pretty rough for most of this season. Whisenhunt has allowed 21 runs over his last 5 outings, while Burns is an impressive 14-2 having allowed just 9 runs over his last 5 games – backing the Giants in this spot makes no sense. I’m on the Reds to win by at least 2 runs.

Good morning, friends – and Happy Monday! Coffee is extra tasty today thanks to the Tampa Bay Rays; I’m so glad Pick of the Day cashed yesterday. Plus-money always feels particularly satisfying 😌 I don’t have too much in the way of updates (yet…) but I’ll be dropping a podcast episode later this afternoon! I’m also nearly ready to show off a first look at our app! Keep your eyes peeled. While you wait, here’s today’s play…
