MLB Picks

Dodgers starter Tyler Anderson has looked quite a bit more hittable as of late, with pedestrian numbers in three of his last four outings. But can we trust Dakota Hudson, who has gotten bombed in every other outing over his last six starts? Get our LAD/Stl pick here!

When you mention Tigers starter Elvin Rodriguez, it’s hard not to think about the fact that he’s allowed 18 earned runs over his last 8.2 innings pitched! It could be a bloodbath at Progressive Field Thursday against a Guardians team hungry to get in their cuts after scoring only one run over their last two games against the White Sox. Get our Det/Cle bet recommendation here!

The Tampa Bay Rays go for the four game sweep Thursday at home against the Boston Red Sox. They’ll send righty Drew Rasmussen to the mound to face Kutter Crawford. Rasmussen has pitched really well in three of his last four starts. Crawford has done the exact same. Runs could be at a premium at Tropicana Field Thursday! Get our Bos/TB pick here!

A pair of lefties meet up for a day game at Coors Field Thursday when Blake Snell (6.50 career ERA and 1.78 WHIP at Coors) of the San Diego Padres takes on Kyle Freeland of the Colorado Rockies. The Pads have dropped four of their last five games and the Rockies have won three of their last four yet San Diego is still favored by -135. Get our SD/Col prediction here!

The Houston Astros and Los Angeles Angels went down to the wire last night with the ‘Stros scratching out a win in 9th inning. They’ll send Cristian Javier to the mound to face Shohei Otani. Be sure to check Mike Trout’s status as he left the game yesterday with an upper back issue. Get our Hou/LAA prediction here!

The unbelievable Shane McClanahan train continues to steam on with one of the most unbelievable runs in years! He’s got a 1.38 ERA in July, had a 1.36 ERA in June and a 1.15 in May! Bookmakers have him as a -170 favorite, which may actually be a value play Wednesday against the Red Sox! Get our Bos/TB wager recommendation here!

Can Zack Wheeler keep the injury ravaged Phillies in the game on the road against the Blue Jays? His numbers are tough to fade as he’s got a 0.00 ERA in 14 innings in July, had a 2.43 ERA in June and a 1.65 ERA in May! He’ll be opposed by Ross Stripling who runs hot and cold.
