MLB Picks

The Brewers and nationals open a three-game series in Washington tonight. The Brewers took the first three meetings back in May and will now try to extend that streak on the road. The Nats come into this game on a roll winning seven of their last nine, but the Brewers line-up has had a lot of success against Corbin in the past. Read on to get Dan’s suggested wager.

The Yankees host the Indians in the first of a four-game set at Yankees Stadium. In the opener Cleveland goes with Adam Plutko who pitched well in his only start versus the NYY back in early June. The Yanks will go with Chad Green to open the game and hope that he continues his scoreless inning streak in that role. Handicapper Dan Jamison weighs it out and gives out his free pick to bet.

The Phillies took the opener as a +121 dog and will look to double it up as -121 favorite tonight. Cubs starter Cole Hamels has been sketchy in his two starts since his return from injury allowing five runs (four earned) over eight innings. Philadelphia starter Aaron Nola gives his team the chance to win most times out and appears to have the edge in form over his rival. Get Dan’s insight plus game prediction.

Both these teams had a travel day yesterday and that might be exactly what the Twins needed after a rough stretch that saw them lose five of their last six. The Brew Crew has the polar opposite record going 5-1 losing only a pitcher’s duel in their latest. Milwaukee appears to have a big edge in starting pitching tonight, but does that justify laying the -140 plus price? Read on to get Dan’s moneyline play.

The Red Sox looked like they may be turning a corner after a nasty slump taking the first two of a four-game set against the Angels, but then dropped the next two. They send out Eduardo Rodriguez but he like his club is not in in his best form. Zach Plesac goes for the home side and the Indians have taken the money in his last six starts. Is Cleveland the play here? Read what our capper is on with today’s free MLB pick.

The Phillies will look to get the split of the four-game series with a with a win tonight over the Giants at Oracle Park. It hasn’t been vintage Jake Arrieta, but he has been pitching better as of late. The Giants go with rookie Conner who will make his third career start. Get Zank’s stats break down and prediction.

Early in the season the Dodgers with Kenta Maeda on the mound would be “money in the bank”, but he hasn’t recorded a recorded quality start since early July and the Boys in Blue have dropped four of his last six starts. The padres have held their own in recent matches against the Dodgers taking four of the last seven and may hold some value tonight. Let’s see what Predictem’s MLB handicapper is playing this game.

Both clubs are trending upwards with Washington winners of three straight and the Mets winners of a ridiculous 14 of their last 15 contests. Another trend to consider is the home side has taken the last six in this series including four consecutive victories by the Mets. Stroman didn’t look sharp in his NYM debut, but he was pitching on extended rest. Get Dan’s take and moneyline pick.

Two teams heading south meet in Boston tonight with the Angels visiting the Red Sox. Los Angeles has dropped six straight and Boston nine of their last ten. Chris Sale gets the start for Red Sox and he’d been horrendous for the most part since late June allowing five or more runs in five of his last seven starts. Dillon Peters has been OK in his lone two starts this season but that’s a small sample size. Read on to get Dan’s suggested bet.

The Brewers will be looking to get the brooms out tonight in Pittsburgh when they play the final game of a three-game set against the Pirates. The home side has the advantage on paper in starting pitching for the finale with Trevor Williams back numbers against the Milwaukee lineup holding them to a .125 average in 35 at bats, but can you back a team that is on a 2-14 run? Get Dan’s betting insight and free pick.

The Braves will look to Mike Foltynewicz and his 6.37 ERA to help them get back on traclk after losing three of their last four. The Twins are on a nice roll, winners of seven of their last eight recent games feasting on a couple bottom feeding teams. The betting line for this game is on the rise with some boards showing MINN as -160 favorite. Will Dan lay the big number? Read on to get his betting prediction.

In Monday interleague action the Athletics travel to the Windy City to take on the Cubs. This will be the first meeting between these clubs since 2016 and the first time back in Chicago to face the Cubbies since 2010! Two sharp pitchers will get the starting call with Bassitt starting for the A’s and Hendricks for the Cubs. MLB handicapper Zank breaks down the key metrics and gives out his pick to win.

New York has certainly paid retribution for last weekend’s disaster in Boston and will be looking for a sweep tonight of the four-game series. There is no line for this game at the time of posting, but with the probable starters being listed as David Price (BOS) and J.A. Happ (NYY) we’d expect the Yankees to be a small favorite. Are the Yanks the play tonight? Let’s see who our MLB prognosticator is going with for his free pick.

The Indians took the series opener to extend their win streak against the Angels to three games dating back to last season. Spot starter Felix Pena likely gets the start for the Angels while the Tribe is going with Adam Plutko. The total may be the smart play with the pitching match-up. Read on to get our MLB capper Dan’s take plus free pick.

The last game on the MLB betting board has the Padres opening a three-game set in Los Angeles against the Dodgers. Last series at Dodger Stadium in early July the Padres took three of four games including a Kershaw/Lauer match-up. This time around it will be Lauer for SD and rookie May making his first career start for LAD. Will Zank look to capitalize on the big road dog or is there better value on the board?
