Expert MLB Picks, Player Prop Predictions & Odds 

Athletics over Rangers: -140 (William Hill)

This article has mentioned this matchup twice in the last two days, and it has paid off both times. Even with the MLB Vegas odds at -140, with only seven games to choose from it has to be mentioned that this bet is close to free money. Mike Foltynewicz has been a shadow of his former self since injuries started piling up. His statistics are ugly to say the least, with only 16% strikeouts, 45% hard hits and an xSLG of .506 allowed this year. Oakland and its homer-first philosophy is the exact kind of team that can take full advantage of a low-strikeout pitcher who allows hard contact. On the other side, a talented young arm in James Kaprielian takes the mound for the Athletics. As long as he does not get blown up, this game should be an easy victory for his team.

Blue Jays vs. Marlins Under 7.5 runs: -113 (SugarHouse Sportsbook)

Two strikeout-heavy pitchers face off in a park that suppresses home runs and rewards pitchers that get their outs via fly balls and punchouts. Robbie Ray and Trevor Rogers are precisely that type of pitcher. The under 7.5 line at close to even money is a fantastic bet, as the two offenses are expected to wane in light of the power pitchers taking the mound. Whereas the Blue Jays can go off against any pitcher, Rogers’ stat line of limiting hard contact at only 37% and xSLG of a measly .324, puts the odds in his favor. As for Robbie Ray, he gives up a little bit more hard contact, but the Marlins are not nearly as scary of an offense as the Blue Jays, and the park should help Ray keep the balls in the yard.

Trevor Bauer Under 7.5 Strikeouts: -118 (FanDuel)

Bauer has taken a significant downturn as far as swinging strikes go since the ban on sticky substances came into effect. Bauer has only had two games with double-digit swinging strikes in his last five starts. The Padres do not strike out often, and the lineup is finally back to being healthy and producing. A lofty eight strikeouts would be a great feat against the Padres, as Bauer would have to pitch deep in the game to rack up that number. This is a great spot at even money to target a pitcher struggling to induce swings and misses against a roster full of power hitters.
