MLB Picks

Thursday provides baseball bettors with yet another peak at what may be a preview of the ALCS in October as the Yankees take on the Astros at the “Juice Box.” Luis Severino starts for New York and Luis Garcia will be on the mound for the “Stros. Get our NYY/Hou pick here!

The lack of Bryce Harper’s bat in the lineup is starting to rear it’s head for the Philadelphia Phillies. The Braves have taken both games of the series and are out for the sweep Thursday at Citizens Bank Park! Get our Atl/Phi betting prediction here!

It’s tough to fathom the Minnesota Twins being up for Thursday’s game vs. the Guardians after blowing a three-run lead in extra innings, only to allow four in the bottom of the inning on an opposite field home runs by Josh Naylor. Historically speaking, teams come out flat after a crushing emotional extra innings loss. Get our Min/Cle pick here!

Wednesday ends with a heck of a pitching matchup between hard throwing Michael Kopech of the Chicago White Sox and Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Angels. Kopech has a 2.59 ERA this season and Ohtani has only allowed one earned run over his last 21 innings! Something has to give! Get our CWS/LAA prediction here!

The Los Angeles Dodgers have dropped two games in a row and may tank tonight as Julio Urias doesn’t have a very good history at Coors Field. He’ll be opposed by Rockies starter German Marquez, who has a poor 6.70 ERA at home this season. Balls could be flyin’ all over the place in Colorado tonight!

An excellent pitcher’s duel takes place at Citi Field today as the Houston Astros will send future Hall of Famer Jason Verlander to the mound to face tough righty Taijuan Walker. The Mets starter has a low 2.49 ERA at home, making him a formidable opponent for Houston. Get our Hou/NYM pick to win here!

The A’s have lost six of their last eight games in and those six losses, they’ve only scored ten runs, in which five of those came in one game! Throw that game out and the team is basically averaging one measly run per game! It won’t get any easier for them today, as they face tough right-hander Jameson Taillon. The Yankees won’t come cheap though! The betting line is NYY -180 at time of print! Get our Oak/NYY betting prediction here!
