The New York Mets are 27-9 this season when facing right handed starters. Against lefties, they are 7-8. Washington is throwing, you guessed it, a lefty to the hill today against the Amazin’s.
Evan Lee will be making his MLB debut today for the Nationals. Hill was a 15th round pick in 2018 who struggled in high-A ball last season and has a 3.90 ERA in seven starts at AA Harrisburg this season. Still, the Nationals are a whopping +205 underdogs today against a team that hasn’t really hit lefthanders.
We’re saying the Nationals avoid the sweep behind a solid start from Lee. We’re taking the Nats moneyline.
The White Sox are starting a pitcher with a 1.29 ERA today. The Blue Jays are countering with a starter who has a 5.48 ERA.
Chicago’s Michael Kopech has allowed 6 runs in 8 starts this season and has a WHIP of 0.857. Toronto’s Hyun Jin-Ryu has allowed 6 runs in a start this season.
The White Sox have played better on the road (12-11) than at home (11-13) this season. Chicago is 14-9 ATS in away games this season. Toronto is 8-15 ATS at home.
We’re keeping up with Kopech today and taking the White Sox moneyline. This is our best MLB bet of the day.
The Giants are underdogs on Wednesday despite the fact that they are trying to complete a series sweep in Philadelphia. San Francisco beat the Phillies 7-4 in 11 innings on Tuesday after Roman Quinn struck out with the bases loaded to end the game. The Giants had knocked off the Phillies 5-4 on Monday.
Carlos Rodon will pitch for San Francisco on Wednesday, matching up against Aaron Nola. Rodon has a 3.60 ERA this season but has been unlucky, as his FIP is 2.62, nearly identical to last season’s, when he had a 2.37 ERA.
Aaron Nola is Philadelphia’s starter on Wednesday. He has also been better than his 3.56 ERA indicates with a 0.94 WHIP.
The Phillies are trying to snap a five game losing streak and they have won just one of their last 8 games. It says here that their losing streak will grow to six games because we’re grabbing the Giants moneyline today.
