It’s unfathomable to think the Mariners spirits aren’t crushed after enjoying a lead for nearly the whole game and then Robbie Ray blowing the save with one final out needed to take Game 1. Can the M”s regroup? Or will the Astros ride the wave of momentum behind Framber Valdez? Get Dave’s Sea/Hou prediction here!
Yesterday’s win marked the fifth time in the last six games that the Dodgers have defeated the padres. The MLB betting board has them as a huge favorite tonight, with Kershaw getting the start who has owned this line up.
The Phillies took the series opener and will look to put the Braves in a deep hole when they send out Zack Wheeler, who has been dominant since his return from IL, allowing one earned run over 21.1 innings. Get our recommended bet for Game 2.
Padres starter Mike Clevinger has a 5.46 ERA on the road this season. L.A. starter Julio Urias has been nearly untouchable at Dodger Stadium. It’s BEST BET time!
With Jason Verlander being 10-1 at home with a 1.64 ERA and 5-1 against the Mariners this season, it’s hard to fathom that the red-hot Seattle Mariners can pull out of Minute Maid Park with the win. Get Joe’s Sea/HOU prediction here!
The St. Louis Cardinals were cruising to victory late yesterday, when all of a sudden, the Phillies bats exploded for six runs. It’s going to be tough sledding for the Cards, as they’ll be facing Aaron Nola Saturday. Get our Phi/Stl prediction here!
Luis Castillo pitched a gem yesterday in Toronto and the Blue Jays bats went silent, as the team got shutout 4-0. Can Kevin Gausman change the Blue Jay’s fortune against an old foe in Robbie Ray? Get our Sea/Tor pick here!
With Zack Wheeler not allowing any runs to the Cardinals this season and Jose Quintana having a 2.02 ERA since being traded to St. Louis, this appears to be a game that will be very low scoring. Get our Phi/Stl bet prediction here!
Runs may be hard to come by in this series, as these teams have the least amount of home runs in the 12-team playoff bracket and the lowest ERA’s of the eight teams in the wild-card round. Get our TB/Cle pick to win here!
The Seattle Mariners make their first playoff appearance since 2001. Seattle’s starting pitching has been suspect as of late, which may make their appearance short lived. Then again, they did go 5-2 against the Jays this season. Get our Sea/Tor Game 1 pick here!
