Rice owns a .508 xSLG and 14.0% barrel rate, giving him one of the strongest power profiles remaining in New York's lineup. Martinez's contact suppression makes this a difficult matchup overall, but his complete lack of strikeout stuff gives Rice an advantage. Rice also hits Martinez's most serviceable pitches so well.

I’m on the Boston Red Sox up to 55%.

Payton Tolle ranks first among all of today’s projected starters in xFIP and SIERA over the past 30 days.

Isolating Parker Messick’s three most-used pitches, each of Boston’s projected Top-4 batters own xwOBAs of .390 or higher against southpaws.

The pitching should be great for both teams but I have more trust in the top of Boston’s order to produce.

Scoring runs should be like pulling teeth for both sides, making the Under an appealing play to 52%.

Parker Messick owns a remarkably strong 1.79 ERA through 13 starts in pitcher-friendly conditions.

Payton Tolle’s xERA sits at 2.38 over 11 starts in favorable pitching weather, and the Cleveland Guardians rank 27th in xwOBA vs. lefties the past month

As it relates to his home run talent, Victor Mesa Jr. ranks in the 80th percentile according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X).. The #9 field in MLB for boosting home runs to left-handed batters, per the leading projection system (THE BAT), is Yankee Stadium.. Yankee Stadium has the 8th-lowest fences among all major league stadiums.. Over the past week, Victor Mesa Jr.'s 33.3% rate of hitting balls at a HR-optimizing launch angle (between 23° and 34°) shows big improvement over his seasonal rate of 19.5%..

As it relates to his strikeout talent, the leading projection system (THE BAT) places Max Fried in the 79th percentile among all SPs in the majors.. The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Max Fried to throw 99 pitches in today's outing (most of all pitchers on the slate today), considering both his underlying tendencies and the matchup.. Austin Wells, the Yankees's expected catcher today, grades out as a good pitch framer according to the leading projection system (THE BAT).. Yankee Stadium's elevation is near sea-level, one of the lowest in the majors, which often leads to less offense.. Max Fried has a reverse platoon split and should be aided by facing 6 opposite-handed bats in today's game.

EV Model Rating
Star rating: 4 out of 5
Projected catcher Jake Rogers projects as a good pitch framer, via the leading projection system (THE BAT).. The wind projects to be blowing in from CF at 8.1-mph in this game, the 7th-best of the day for mound aces.. Anthony Kay's 95.2-mph fastball velocity this year ranks in the 82nd percentile among all starters.. Anthony Kay's high usage percentage of his secondary pitches (60.3% this year) ought to work in his favor considering they are typically much more effective than fastballs.. Considering the 0.53 deviation between Anthony Kay's 7.31 K/9 and his 7.84 estimated true talent K/9 (via the leading projection system, THE BAT), it's safe to say he's been one of the unluckiest pitchers in the league this year as it relates to strikeouts and should see positive regression in the future.

Play up to 20%. Josh Jung's recent batted-ball profile is extremely appealing, highlighted by a 64.7% hard-hit rate and 23.5% barrel rate over his last six games. He's also elevating nearly half his contact, while Manaea has surrendered 1.63 HR/9 on the road. Jung has legitimate long-ball upside tonight.

Play up to 56%. There are several paths to offense in this matchup. Gore has been vulnerable recently, Manaea isn't untouchable, and neither bullpen profiles as dominant. With New York producing well at the plate and the total sitting at only 7.5, it shouldn't take a true slugfest to get this Over.

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.
