Quinn Allen
Betting Analyst
The Under 8.5 fits because both bullpens are in good shape and neither lineup is showing much power. San Francisco has produced a strong wRC+ lately, but its ISO remains light, while Pittsburgh’s bullpen stability limits late-game scoring paths at PNC Park.
Moneyline
PIT (-155)
Quinn Allen
Betting Analyst
Pittsburgh has the cleaner full-game profile with Lake Bachar opening and the bullpen in strong form behind him. The Pirates’ relief corps has not allowed homer damage lately, while Blade Tidwell’s recent 5.81 FIP and HR issues give Pittsburgh a clear scoring path.

Dustin Saracini
Senior Analyst
If there is a player to ride momentum with, it's Vladdy. His swing finally looked like the 2025 version of himself, specifically in the postseason, so we're going to ride with him one more time against a pitcher he's historically had success against. At this price, it's an easy play for me.

TOR (-110)
Dustin Saracini
Senior Analyst
If the Toronto Blue Jays want to build momentum after their 11-0 win last night, Jose Soriano is the right man to do it. Across 46 plate appearances, the Cleveland Guardians have registered just a .213 xBA and .332 xSLG against the righty, which includes limiting Steven Kwan to a .159 xBA. Soriano's elite groundball rate is perfect for a contact-first team like Cleveland, and should allow him to work deep into the ballgame. On the other side, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. might've finally woken up last night after going 3-for-4 with 5 RBI and a homer; he won't be slowing down today, either, owning a .744 xSLG against Bibee. All the numbers point toward the Jays in a must-win game here; I'd play this up to -120.

Alex Hoppe o0.5 Total Home Runs (+583)
Josh Inglis
Betting Analyst
Wrigley Field is one of three parks this year averaging three or more dingers per game. This series has seen more home runs than I can count on two hands, and despite some great numbers, Logan Henderson is not a bad name to fade on a small Thursday slate. Since the All-Star break, 32% of Henderson's hits allowed have gone yard, and he has allowed nine homers across 48 innings. He's been a very lucky pitcher with a .178 BABIP in the second half while stranding 100% of his runners, per FanGraphs. His lefty-righty splits are pretty even, which puts Alex Bregman and his hot bat on the card at 18.2% or better. Bregman is on a mission, and that mission took Jacob Misiorowski deep in his last outing. He has four homers in this series alone and has launched eight home runs over his last four series (12 games). Many of the Cubs hitters are projecting as +EV through the projections at Covers.

Kevin Gausman has a chance to right the ship when he faces a Brewers club batting just .200/.252/.323 against him. With Logan Henderson sporting a BB% in the 87th percentile and a K% in the 92nd, expect runs to be at a premium at Wrigley.

BAL (+119)
Jon Metler
Betting Analyst
There's a strong edge on the Baltimore Orioles at the current price, and that's ultimately what matters when buying a probability in the market. The Orioles are trading at 45% on Polymarket, but I price them closer to a 51% favorite. We usually see an edge of only 2-3%, so this 6% difference is definitely worth paying attention to. The Red Sox are sending left-hander Jake Bennett to the mound. While he's dominated left-handed hitters this season, he hasn't fared as well against right-handed bats. Baltimore's lineup features plenty of right-handed power from spots two through six, including Luis Robert Jr., whom the Orioles acquired on August 31. Small details can create an edge, and Robert's addition matters in this matchup. He has historically hit left-handed pitching better than right-handed pitching, and his presence lengthens Baltimore's lineup with another right-handed bat that profiles well against Bennett.

Josh Inglis
Betting Analyst
This is about as tough a schedule spot as you can get for the Seattle offense today. The Mariners were just in Boston yesterday and now open a weekend set with the Athletics at home. The return home after a two-series East Coast trip with no day off is working against the home side, and it's just enough to slow down an average offense that is coming off its best three-game offensive output. Seattle gets Jack Perkins, who has allowed just two earned runs over his last three starts, while the Mariners should have a favorable matchup against the Athletics and their league-worst road scoring offense. Twenty-two-year-old first-rounder Kade Anderson gets the start for Seattle and has struck out 135 batters in 93 minor-league innings this year. Neither bullpen has restrictions today, and the projections give this a 56% fair probability. The schedule spot and the worst road offense are pushing this total down to a flat 7.

T-Mobile Park's elevation is near sea-level, one of the lowest among all major league parks, which usually leads (as a rule of thumb) to worse offense.. The weather forecast projects the 7th-best pitching conditions of all games on the slate, as it relates to temperature and humidity.. Cal Raleigh's ability to hit the ball at a base hit-maximizing launch angle (between -4° and 26°) has decreased from last season to this one, going from 39% to 31.2%.

St. Louis is on an 11-2 Over tear, and this matchup sets up for more scoring. The Cardinals rank fourth in OPS against lefties over the past month and should challenge Tarik Skubal, who hasn’t been quite as dominant with Los Angeles. On the other side, rookie Quinn Mathews owns a 5.03 ERA and 1.58 WHIP. He's backed by a bullpen that's posted a brutal 6.47 ERA over the past two weeks. Expect an aggressive Dodgers lineup vs the inexperienced starter and struggling bullpen as they look to break out of a 2-6 slide.

Dodger Stadium grades out as the #24 ballpark in the majors for righty base hits, per the leading projection system (THE BAT)..

Tommy Edman's exit velocity on flyballs has decreased this season; his 89.3-mph EV last year has fallen off to 85.2-mph.. Over the last two weeks, Tommy Edman has been exhibiting poor exit velocity numbers, with an average of only 85.3-mph on his flyballs..

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?
