Star rating: 4 out of 5
According to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), Juan Soto ranks as the 3rd-best batter in the game.. Juan Soto is projected to hit 2nd in the lineup in this matchup..

Projection 0.49
EV Model Rating
Star rating: 4 out of 5
The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Owen Caissie in the 95th percentile as it relates to his BABIP skill..

Owen Caissie will have the handedness advantage against Jonah Tong in today's game.. Owen Caissie has a good chance to have an advantage against every reliever for the duration of the game, since the bullpen of the New York Mets only has 1 same-handed RP.. Owen Caissie hits a high percentage of his flyballs to center field (38.5% — 86th percentile) and sets up very well considering he'll be hitting out towards the game's 6th-shallowest CF fences in today's matchup.

Fenway Park grades out as the #3 park in the majors for run-scoring, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT).. In the majors, Fenway Park's LF fences are the shallowest..

Because of Patrick Sandoval's large platoon split, Josh Lowe will be at a gigantic disadvantage hitting from the same side of the dish in this game.. Josh Lowe has an 80th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (34%) and is a great match for the park considering he'll be hitting them out towards the league's shallowest LF fences today.. Josh Lowe's launch angle this season (18.9°) is quite a bit higher than his 9.4° figure last season.. Despite posting a .273 wOBA this year, the leading projection system (THE BAT X) believes Josh Lowe has been unlucky given the .031 deviation between that figure and his estimated true talent wOBA of .304.

Joey Cantillo is sporting a 6.75 ERA through 10 starts vs. opponents who rank inside the Top-10 in ISO against southpaws, and the Orioles come in at No. 9.
The Cleveland Guardians are not the most powerful offense around but they quietly sit 11th in xwOBA against lefties the past month.

The Chicago Cubs are trading as a 48% underdog against the Milwaukee Brewers, but I price them closer to a 51% favorite, so I'm backing Chicago on Polymarket. Two things stand out to me in this matchup. First, I'm backing Matthew Boyd on the road, where he owns a 2.83 ERA compared to a 5.40 ERA at Wrigley Field. Second, Brewers starter Robert Gasser relies heavily on his slider. The Cubs have several right-handed bats, including Alex Bregman, Nico Hoerner, and Seiya Suzuki, who are either patient against off-speed pitches from lefties or have swing paths that profile well against the slider. If Gasser can't generate outs with his slider, he'll be forced to attack the zone with a low-velocity fastball. The Cubs also faced him just six days ago, giving the hitters a recent look at his stuff and an even greater advantage in what is already a difficult matchup.

I’ll back the Brewers at home at a reasonable price. Milwaukee enters this matchup with the better overall record and has already won six of 10 meetings with Chicago this season. The pitching matchup between Robert Gasser and Matthew Boyd doesn’t provide a huge advantage either way, so I’m comfortable siding with the better team at home for less than -150.

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.
If you're looking for more MLB picks content, check out our consensus picks and prop bets pages to get your fix. While you're at it, head over to our MLB promos page to get the best bang for your buck.
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.
