Best Odds
Pick made: 6 minutes ago
EV Model Rating
Star rating: 3 out of 5
Cole Carrigg is projected to bat 3rd in the batting order in this game.. On average, the fence height at Comerica Park is the lowest among all major league baseball stadiums.. Comerica Park sits at the 9th-highest altitude in MLB. High elevation generally leads to better offense.. Cole Carrigg has seen a notable improvement in his exit velocity recently; just compare his 89.7-mph average over the last week to his seasonal 87.2-mph mark.

EV Model Rating
Star rating: 3 out of 5
Considering both his underlying tendencies and the matchup, Gabriel Hughes is projected to throw 80 pitches in this outing by the leading projection system (THE BAT X) system, which is the least on the slate.. James Jean projects as a Huge Hitters Umpire and is scheduled to be calling pitches in today's game.. Brett Sullivan, the Rockies's expected catcher in today's game, grades out as a weak pitch framer according to the leading projection system (THE BAT).. Comerica Park sits at the 9th-highest altitude in MLB. High elevation generally leads to better offense.. Playing on the road typically lessens pitcher metrics across the board due to the lack of home field advantage, which figures to be the case for Gabriel Hughes in today's game.

Betting Analyst

Matt Olson is on the verge of a breakout.

He has posted a 22.2% barrel rate and 97.3 mile per hour average exit velocity against fastballs and sliders thrown by righties the past 25 games. Those just happen to be Andrew Painter’s primary pitches against lefties.

Zooming out, Olson's season ISO is .329 against fastballs and .629 against the slider. Downright absurd.

The Under is appealing and playable to 59%.

Grant Holmes' barrel rate is trending in the right direction – 5.6% the past month vs. 8.5% this season – and the Philadelphia Phillies are struggling to hit for power, an encouraging combination.

Andrew Painter has quietly pitched to a 3.55 xERA the last 30 days. He’s in a much better spot than early in the year, and should avoid major damage.

Aaron Judge’s hits, runs and RBI prop is a rare opportunity to grab the Yankees captain at a reasonable price. Judge has surpassed this prop in more than 57% of his 373 elite ratings over the last three seasons, while going over 2.5 nearly 46% of the time and homering almost 30%. He draws Mets right-hander Christian Scott, who has struggled against right-handed hitters on the road, allowing a .294 batting average, .412 SLG and .366 wOBA. Judge has recorded three hits in four games since returning from injury and continues to generate plenty of hard contact. The play is worth targeting at -120 or better.

Aaron Judge stands out as the top home run target against Christian Scott and the Mets. Scott has struggled more against right-handed hitters, allowing them to hit .294 with a .412 SLG and .366 wOBA on the road this season. Judge enters today with an elite Batters-Box rating, a spot where he homers nearly 30% of the time. While he has yet to leave the yard since returning from injury, his recent contact has been encouraging. Each of his last five balls in play has left the bat at 93 MPH or harder, including three at 100.3 MPH or better. The bleachers are calling.

Betting Analyst

It's not a bad day for dingers in Washington with Grayson Rodriguez on the bump. He has the third-worst HR/9 over the last two seasons among all starters today and has given up multiple homers in back-to-back starts. It's a big-total game that could see the Nats' healthy offense stack some runs. The best value on the home side is CJ Abrams at 20.4%, with a fair probability of 23.5%. He's slugging .461 in the second half and leads the team with 10 dingers. He got over the toughest one to get, his 30th, and is looking to finish a breakout season with a great home-run matchup at home this afternoon. James Wood and CJ Abrams should not be four percentage points apart in home-run pricing.

Grayson Rodriguez brings significant bat-missing upside against a depleted Washington lineup scuffling with an 80 wRC+ over the past two weeks. Washington's bullpen has completely imploded (7.97 ERA, 4.54 SIERA, 11.9% BB%), leaving Jake Irvin with zero margin for error in an even-money pick'em spot.

The weather report predicts temperatures in this matchup to reach the 4th-highest level of all games on the slate today at 82°, which is highly linked to an increase in offense (and a reduction in strikeouts).. Batting from the opposite that Sean Burke throws from, Alec Burleson will have an edge in today's matchup.

Target Alex Bregman's scorching September form - he’s gone 13-for-37 this month, with two dingers and a 1.039 OPS.

With one hit off Chandler in a small sample size, and extra-base blasts off a couple of Pittsburgh relievers, Bregman offers great value here, and he’s smashed 18 of his 25 homers off righties.

The Over has been a winning ticket in seven of the last 10 matchups between these teams, and it’s 7-1 in Chicago’s last eight outings as a favorite against NL Central rivals. 

Boyd has coughed up 3+ earned runs in four of his last five trips to the mound, and both sides sit in the Top 5 for runs, hits and OBP.

It's not every day you get the most probable home run on the board at a +EV price, but that's what's happening today with Cal Raleigh at a fair probability of 33%. I think we can thank the NFL slate for this sneaky price. It's the best setting in baseball for dingers today, and Cal Raleigh is making up for lost time with nine home runs over the last 30 days and a top-20 slugging percentage of .628. He's also owned Jacob Lopez, with three home runs in five plate appearances. Do you hear that? That's the sound of Lopez's knees knocking together at the thought of facing Raleigh today.

Shea Langeliers is back in the Athletics' lineup, and at around 24% today, it's a great spot to back him to go yard with a fair probability of 28.6%. It's a Sutter Health Park game, which is always good for the taters. It's no surprise it's the best park today for home runs by a wide margin, per Ball Park Pal. At home, Langeliers slugs 100 points better than he does on the road. The next green check is the pitching matchup. Bryce Miller has the worst HR/9 over the last two seasons among all starters today and is not in great form. In the second half of this year, he owns the 13th-worst HR/9 among MLB starters and the 28th-worst HR/FB rate. Miller hasn't gotten to 15 outs in four straight starts.

Rafael Devers is the homer pick and it's hard to argue anyone else.

He has 35 dingers and 96 RBIs this season and has been one of the hottest hitters in the sport recently. Pivetta’s four-seam fastball has also allowed a .391 xSLG and a 51.9% hard-hit rate, giving Devers a path to damage if Pivetta falls behind and has to challenge him with velocity. I'll take him to go deep even if it is the only run the Giants score all night.

The San Diego Padres are worth backing to -135 behind Nick Pivetta, who has allowed a .242 xwOBA and .303 xSLG since returning from the injured list.

His current sample is limited to five starts and 21 innings because the injury cost him significant time, so his established profile carries more weight. Pivetta ranked in the 99th percentile in pitching run value and in the top 20 percent of the sport in both hard-hit rate and barrel rate last season. We've seen that return to form in his brief stint this year. That helps an already ineffective San Francisco Giants offense.  

Logan Webb is Logan Webb, and few are better in the sport at getting ground balls (94th percentile); however, the Padres have enough power in the lineup to avoid those ground balls just enough to enable them to grind out a win.

What Is An MLB Computer Pick?

MLB picks are bet suggestions based on our computer's assessment of the game. Tons of betting data goes into a computer pick, including pitching matchups, injury reports, analytics, and even recent betting trends.

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.

More MLB Picks & Betting Tools

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.
