Betting Analyst
With Mariners starter Bryce Miller allowing a massive .279 ISO and 2.33 HR/9 to left-handed hitters over his past nine starts, Pederson jumps out as a home-run target tonight. Pederson has hit 24 bombs against righties with a .248 ISO, after all.

Neil Parker
Betting Analyst
Both offenses are set up for success tonight. Seattle righty Bryce Miller has been incredibly inconsistent and allowed three or more runs in seven of his past nine starts while posting an alarmingly high 4.70 xERA and 5.35 xFIP. Texas counters with Cody Bradford, and he's struggled to the tune of a 5.48 xERA and 5.16 xFIP across six starts since returning to the majors Aug. 5.

Josh Inglis
Betting Analyst
The Nationals have dropped five straight games and have seen their market price fall, trading at just 37% today in a matchup where I think they can be competitive. James Wood is back and has gone 6-for-19 with three extra-base hits since returning, giving a boost to an offense that was the highest-scoring in baseball in the first half. San Diego starter Casey Mize is not a pitcher I want to back as a 67% favorite. He's struggled since coming over from Detroit, owning a 6.67 ERA with eight homers allowed over 27 innings. His strikeouts are way down, and he's allowed five homers with just five strikeouts over his last three starts. His 6.05 xFIP is the worst of any San Diego pitcher in the second half with at least 20 innings. The Nationals are going with a questionable opener, but every other arm is basically available. With the market giving them just a 37% chance to win, THE BAT's 42% fair price gives us enough value to take a shot on the Nats.
Total Bases

Projection 1.84
EV Model Rating
Star rating: 4 out of 5
As it relates to his BABIP talent, James Wood is projected as the 4th-best hitter in the game by the leading projection system (THE BAT X).. James Wood is projected to hit 1st on the lineup card in this game.. In MLB, Petco Park's centerfield dimensions are the shallowest.. Petco Park has the 5th-shortest fence height (on average) among all stadiums.. The weather forecast expects the 4th-most suitable hitting weather of all games on the slate, as it relates to temperature and humidity.

TOR -1.5 (-110)
Dustin Saracini
Senior Analyst
This is the biggest start of Jose Soriano's career, to put it mildly. It couldn't have come at a better time, either, as he's had some tremendous success against the Athletics during his time with the Angels, holding this lineup to a .215 xBA across 76 plate appearances. The A's ground out the third-most in baseball, which plays perfectly into Soriano's elite (91st percentile) ground-ball rate. On the other side is Jack Perkins, whose 8.6% barrel rate is among the worst in baseball. If Toronto can stay disciplined tonight, they should have no problem knotting the series.

Projection 5.49
EV Model Rating
Star rating: 3 out of 5
Throwing 94.4 adjusted pitches per outing this year on average, Landen Roupp places in the 89th percentile.. Built just 8 feet above sea level, Oracle Park has one of the lowest altitudes among all parks, which usually leads (as a rule of thumb) to lower offensive output.. Considering that flyball pitchers hold a sizeable edge over flyball hitters, Landen Roupp and his 46.6% underlying FB% (according to the leading projection system, THE BAT) will be in a strong spot in today's matchup matching up with 2 opposing FB hitters.. Landen Roupp will hold the home field advantage today, which should bolster all of his stats across the board.. In his last GS, Landen Roupp was on point and accumulated 7 strikeouts.

When it comes to his home run skill, Jordan Walker ranks in the 92nd percentile according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X).. Jordan Walker is penciled in 4th in the batting order in today's game.. The wind projects to be blowing out to CF at 8.1-mph in this contest, the best of the day for hitters.. Out of every team today, the 2nd-worst infield defense belongs to the San Francisco Giants.. Jordan Walker has been hot recently, raising his seasonal exit velocity of 92.5-mph to 96-mph in the last week's worth of games.

Total Home Runs
Teoscar Hernandez o0.5 Total Home Runs (+286)
Colby Marchio
Contributor
Teoscar Hernández is in a strong spot to go deep against Reds left-hander Nick Lodolo. Hernández has been crushing the ball lately, posting a .649 SLG, .719 xSLG and .244 ISO over his last 10 games, while generating a 64%+ hard-hit rate and 18% barrel rate. He’ll face Lodolo, who has struggled against right-handed hitters recently. The last 60 righties he has faced own a .350 xBA, .640 xSLG and .400 xwOBA, while Lodolo is allowing a 53.5% hard-hit rate, 16.3% barrel rate and 27.9% ground-ball rate. Don’t let Hernández’s home run last night scare you away from this prop.

Teoscar Hernandez historically hammers lefties, and that is starting to shine through more and more of late.
Hernandez has hit .294 with a .235 ISO and .929 OPS against left-handed pitching over his past 30 games.
His ISOs against Nick Lodolo’s three most-used pitches during that span: .353, .235 and .600.

How To Use MLB Computer Picks
You can use the tables above to help with your bets during the MLB season. The first section includes free, computer-generated picks for daily Major League Baseball games. Baseball bettors can choose to follow the computer, fade the computer, or simply use our computer picks as one element of their betting strategy.
This page also tees up access to deeper betting trends. For example, if a club's run line is favored, you can check their ATS trends, potentially opening up some quality underdog bets.
If you're ready to get started with MLB betting, visit our dedicated page highlighting the best MLB betting sites.
Moneyline
This is the most common and easiest wager for a bettor to make when it comes to MLB picks. Basically, to win an MLB moneyline pick, you just have to choose which team will win the game.
It's simple: if you bet the White Sox moneyline over the Red Sox and Chicago wins, you win your bet.
Run line
The run line is another name for a point spread that you may be more familiar with in NBA and NFL betting. A point spread varies in the NFL and NBA from as little as 0.5 points up to double-digit spreads. A baseball run line is almost always a 1.5-point spread.
The favorite will be -1.5 while the underdog will be +1.5. At the end of the game, if you take away 1.5 runs from the favorite or add 1.5 runs to the underdog and they end up winning the game, you win your MLB pick against the spread.
Totals (Over/Under)
Another common wager is to bet on the total in baseball, which is a bet on the total runs scored in the baseball game. You are simply choosing whether the final score will be Over or Under that total. Betting the Over/Under on a matchup is a great way to get started in MLB score predictions.

NRFI/YRFI MLB Picks
A new and emerging MLB betting market is the NRFI/YRFI bet. These are quick-hitters in which you make a wager on the O/U total of the first inning, typically set at 0.5 runs. Thus, the bet is coined as No Run First Inning or Yes Run First Inning. No need to wait a couple of hours to cash a bet when it could be done in 20 minutes or less.
First Five Innings MLB Picks
The above options, moneyline, run line, and Over/Under, can also be placed on the first five innings of a game rather than the full game. Many experienced bettors will use this approach because, typically, this will take bullpens out of the equation and make your job researching the game easier. After all, you can just focus on the starting pitchers.
MLB Picks And Parlays
If you want to combine multiple games into one mega wager, you may consider making a parlay bet. A parlay is when you pick two or more MLB games on one single betting ticket, which will increase the payout of your bet.
But it also comes with more risk, as each of those MLB picks must hit for your ticket to pay out. Our parlay calculator is a great tool to find out what your potential payout would be.

MLB Player Props
Player props are a great way to hone in on an individual matchup for a game. These types of wagers will be individualized for a player: Will Shohei Ohtani hit a home run? Will Gerrit Cole get seven strikeouts? Will Paul Skenes allow two earned runs?
You simply choose whether this outcome will happen or not. Keeping up to date on daily pitching matchups and batters on a hot streak can give you a huge boost when placing player prop bets.
MLB Futures Picks
Lastly, prior to the season and even throughout the season, you can place futures bets on all the long-term awards and outcomes. You can lock in an MLB pick on who will win their division, which squad will win the World Series, or even who will win the Rookie of the Year, MVP, or Cy Young.
