MLB Picks

The Atlanta Braves 14 game win streak came to a screeching halt yesterday as they were shutout by the Chicago Cubs 1-0. They’re likely to get back on track Saturday, as Kyle Wright will be on the mound vs. Justin Steele. Wright only allowed one earned run over seven innings vs. the Cubbies back in April.

The Cleveland Guardians have quietly gotten on a heater, winning six of their last seven games. Dodgers lefty Clayton Kershaw looks to build on his last start and get back to form after being on a pitch count in his first start back from injury where he only threw 71 pitches.

Thinking about betting on the Diamondbacks? It’d be prudent to know that Arizona hasn’t scored any runs in each of his last three starts! Talk about “snakes that don’t bite!” Get Dan’s Min/Az pick here!

One of the worst pitchers in Major League Baseball takes the mound for the Washington Nationals Friday afternoon when Joan Adon and his 1-10 record, 6.95 ERA and 1.76 WHIP host Bailey Falter and the Philadelphia Phillies. Get our Phi/Wash prediction here!

Old pals Adam Wainright and Michael Wacha go at it Friday night at Fenway Park in a pitcher’s duel where the bookies have made it a pick’em with both teams listed at -110 odds. Get our Stl/Bos betting prediction here!

What’s up with the Milwaukee Brewers? They’re 2-10 in their last twelve games and it doesn’t appear to be getting any better. Eric Lauer got bombed in his last game vs. a weak Washington team and now has to pitch in one of the most offensive hot-boxes in MLB. The Reds will send rookie hurler Hunter Greene to the hill to build on his solid recent showings which have yielded only one earned run in his last twelve innings pitched. Get our Mil/Cin pick here!

The Chicago Cubs are ice cold, losers of ten games in a row. The Padres just swept a four-game series and the Cubs were beaten like a drum. It won’t get any easier for the Cubbies Friday afternoon at Wrigley when the WHITE-HOT Atlanta Braves come rolling into town on a 14-game winning streak! Get our Atl/Chi pick here!

The Brewers bats busted out yesterday scoring double digits for the first time in forever as they torched David Peterson and Jake Reed for 9 runs before five innings were completed. The Mets may be in trouble again Thursday, as NY starter Tylor Megill has pitched like crap over his last three games. Get our Mil/NYM bet recommendation here!

Can anybody stop the New York Yankees? The guys in pinstripes are now 13-1 over their last 14 games! Luis Severino is set to take the mound for NY and Jalen Beeks for TB. Get our Rays/Yanks pick here!

The Texas Rangers continue to be the most inconsistent and most difficult MLB teams to handicap as they score big and win and don’t score and lose all too often. Lucky for them, they’re playing the Detroit Tigers, who are on a four game losing streak and have only put up one run over their last 18 innings. Get Dan’s Tex/Det pick here!

The San Diego Padres have to absolutely be in love with Wrigley Field as they’ve scored 19 and 12 runs in their last two games there. Will Pads hit double digits again and complete a four-game sweep of the Cubbies Thursday afternoon against Matt Swamer? Get our SD/Chi pick here!

Thursday’s MLB card is a short one with only 18 teams in action. The Oakland A’s and Boston Red Sox kick it off with one of four day games with Boston coming in as -160 hone favs with Rich Hill on the mound vs. a very underrated Paul Blackburn. But can the A’s score? Get our Oak/Bos prediction here!

If you haven’t got a chance to see Braves young fireballer Spencer Strider pitch yet, we recommend you tune in Wednesday night to the Atlanta/Washington game! This kid really cuts it loose and has an amazing fastball! Get our Atl/Wash bet recommendation here!

Chris Bassitt allowed only 3 hits yesterday to the Brewers and the Mets shutout Milwaukee 4-0. The win brought the Mets to an impressive 20-8 record at Citi Field and gave them their third win in four games. Milwaukee is now 1-9 in their last 10 games. Get our Mil/NYM prediction here!

One of Wednesday’s tougher bets to handicap is the Minnesota Twins vs. Seattle Mariners game. Two pretty good pitchers in Sonny Gray and Marco Gonzales go at it at T-Mobile Park in Wednesday matinee action in Seattle! Get our Min/Sea prediction here!
