Hitting from the opposite that Hunter Dobbins throws from, Bryce Harper will have the upper hand in today's matchup.. Bryce Harper has an 80th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (33.9%) and sets up very well considering he'll be hitting them out towards the league's 10th-shallowest LF fences today.

According to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), the team with the 2nd-least strikeout-heavy lineup today is the Philadelphia Phillies with a 19.4% underlying K%.. Erich Bacchus projects as a Hitters Umpire and is likely to be in charge of the strike zone today.. With 6 bats who bat from the other side in the opposing team's projected batting order, Hunter Dobbins will be in a tough position while lacking the platoon advantage in most plate appearances today.. Playing on the road typically lowers pitcher metrics in all categories due to the lack of home field advantage, which ought to be the case for Hunter Dobbins today.

Griffin Conine stands out as a prime home run candidate on today's slate. The Marlins slugger has been firing missiles lately, producing a 65% hard-hit rate, 25% barrel rate and just a 25% ground-ball rate over his last 10 games, while owning a .767 SLG and .434 ISO. He also enters today with the highest matchup rating in the current season dataset, and through 13 home games with an elite rating, he has gone deep 23% of the time.
Conine draws Washington Nationals right-hander Brad Lord, who has allowed left-handed hitters to bat .269, with a .444 SLG and .827 OPS this season. Conine also covers over 88% of Lord's arsenal, making this a great spot for the Marlins slugger to go deep.

The #8 park in the league for suppressing batting average to lefties, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT), is LoanDepot Park..

The LoanDepot Park roof is expected to be closed today, making conditions in this game -7° colder than the average outdoor game of all games on the slate — favorable for pitching.. Griffin Conine pulls many of his flyballs (35.3% — 83rd percentile) and will be challenged by MLB's 4th-deepest RF fences today.. Among every team playing today, the 3rd-strongest infield defense is that of the the Washington Nationals.

Through his first three starts with Tampa Bay, Peralta owns a 7.53 ERA, 6.01 xERA and 1.47 WHIP while allowing a 49% hard-hit rate and 13.33% barrel rate. Baltimore has also been making plenty of hard contact, posting over a 45% hard-hit rate and nearly 10% barrel rate over its last 21 games. Despite a cold week, the Orioles still own a 116 wRC+, .339 wOBA and .773 OPS over their last 12 games. At +110, Baltimore is worth backing and fading Peralta.

Grichuk is one of the highest-rated hitters on Batters-Box, covering over 91% of Manaea's arsenal. Against left-handed pitching over his last 30 plate appearances, he owns a .828 SLG and .380 ISO while generating a 50% hard-hit rate. Manaea has struggled against right-handed hitters, allowing a 51.5% hard-hit rate and 15.2% barrel rate over his last 60. The potential pinch-hit concern creates some risk, but Grichuk is still a strong look at +400 or better.

Miguel Vargas is my preferred right-handed hitter against Mets left-hander Sean Manaea tonight, with the possibility of Randal Grichuk being pinch-hit for making Vargas the better option. Vargas enters Friday with a .718 SLG, .410 ISO, 51.5% hard-hit rate and 12.1% barrel rate over his last ten games. He also carries an elite rating on Batters-Box, covering 100% of Manaea's pitches, while going over this prop 55.56% of the time this season when rated elite. Manaea has struggled against right-handed hitters, with his last 60 opponents producing a 51.5% hard-hit rate, 15.2% barrel rate and .360 xBA. The White Sox need to get back on track, and it starts with Vargas. Take this down to -125 if you have to.

Joey Cantillo draws another strong strikeout matchup against the Rockies in Denver. The Guardians southpaw has maintained a strikeout rate above 30% over his last five outings and owns a 25.44% strikeout rate away from home this season.

Over their last 60 at-bats against lefties, only two Rockies hitters own strikeout rates below 17%, while the rest sit at 25% or higher. Four hitters are striking out at a 31.7% clip, making six strikeouts an appealing target at -120 or better.

The #1 stadium in MLB for boosting offensive stats, via the leading projection system (THE BAT), is Coors Field.. Built 5197 feet above sea level, Coors Field has the highest elevation among all major league stadiums, which generally leads to higher offensive output.. The weather forecast predicts temperatures in this matchup to reach the highest level on the slate today at 91°, which is highly linked to an increase in offense (and a reduction in strikeouts).. As a switch-hitter who is best from the 0 side of the dish, Patrick Bailey will get to bat from his good side against Tanner Gordon in today's matchup.

Joe Osborne
Senior Betting Analyst
The numbers strongly favor Arizona to win comfortably tonight. Over the past month, the Diamondbacks rank first in home OPS and second against left-handed pitching, while Cincinnati ranks 27th on the road and 28th versus lefties. Eduardo Rodriguez also owns an ERA nearly two runs lower than Nick Lodolo, who has led the Reds to a 4-10 record in his starts. Throw in a struggling Reds bullpen, and we have the recipe for a lopsided Dbacks W.

Dustin Saracini
Senior Analyst
Manny Machado continues to be a power threat when facing southpaws at Petco Park (.416 SLG). Prielipp has surrendered high barrel rates to right-handed hitters all season, making Machado a prime candidate to lift one over the fence. The value on Machado clearing the outfield wall tonight is too good to pass up, let's ride with him as one of our best bets.

Dustin Saracini
Senior Analyst
Petco Park may have a reputation as a pitcher's paradise, but this 7.5-run total is slightly too low with Prielipp on the mound. Prielipp's 41.1 hard-hit percentage leaves plenty of room for San Diego to put up multi-run frames.

JD Yonke
Betting Analyst
The Dodgers have cashed the Under in four consecutive Yoshinobu Yamamoto starts, and his splitter should work optimally in his matchup (Pittsburgh is 23rd in runs above average per 100 splitters seen). Bubba Chandler, meanwhile, has even better numbers than Yamamoto in their last six respective outings. Both bullpens rank in the top 10 in FIP over the last 14 days (L.A. 3.37, Pittsburgh 3.53) and are refreshed after Thursday's off day, so run suppression is a likely outcome of tonight's ballgame.
Bubba Chandler has allowed no more than three earned runs in any of his last six starts while turning in a 2.56 ERA, 2.39 FIP, and 2.3% barrel rate. The market is underpricing him against a slumping L.A. lineup (91 wRC+ in the last 14 days; Pittsburgh 104).

Pete Crow-Armstrong o0.5 Total Home Runs (+309)
Chris Faria
Betting Analyst
Pete Crow-Armstrong is having another fantastic season with 31 dingers, already equal to last year’s output, while ranking in the 99th percentile in batting run value and 89th percentile in barrel %. PCA has gone yard four times in his last four contests, and he matches up well against Hancock. The Cubs slugger has nine dingers against right-handed four-seamers this season, tied for the ninth most in the majors.
Total
o7.5 (-121)
Chris Faria
Betting Analyst
The Cubs own the second-best offense in MLB (5.13 runs per game), and Hancock is susceptible to giving up hard hits.
Boyd also owns a 6.16 ERA over his last three starts, so the Mariners could do some damage of their own.

The White Sox offense has been scorching, posting a slate-best .341 wOBA alongside a .291 BABIP to outpace the Mets (.321 wOBA, .285 BABIP). With Chicago’s bullpen also holding a clear SIERA advantage (4.00 vs. 4.35), the White Sox are primed to take this basically coin-flip contest.

Detroit features a significant late-inning bullpen edge with a 3.81 SIERA compared to Kansas City’s struggling 4.90 mark. While the Royals maintain slightly higher contact metrics (.316 wOBA, .288 BABIP vs. Detroit’s .298, .281), the Tigers’ massive relief pitching advantage will tilt the final frames.

The Yankees rank Top-3 in OPS, ISO, OBP, xWOBA, and hard hit rate when facing left-handed pitching. The Red Sox have hit righties very well over the past four weeks, sitting ninth in wOBA, ninth in ISO, and fourth in batting average. Play the Over to -120.

Ranger Suarez has started four games against teams ranking Top-10 in OPS vs. left-handed pitching, allowing 13 runs and posting a 6.13 ERA during those games. The New York Yankees lead the majors in OPS against lefties so they’re a prime candidate to cause Suarez problems. Playable to -145.

The Braves have dropped five of six while averaging just 2.8 runs per game and ranking 29th in wOBA without Ronald Acuna Jr. (hamstring), and it’s been a smoke-and-mirrors start for veteran lefty Martin Perez, and there’s serious statistical correction ahead of his .230 BABIP and 80.2% strand rate considering they’re both high-end marks about pitchers with at least 60 innings this season. San Francisco is just the offense to kick-start the regression, too. The Giants are pacing the majors in wOBA and fourth in xwOBA over the past 30 days, after all.

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.
