Major League Baseball Tips
Home Run
Today’s Top Picks:
San Diego Padres ML @4/6 vs Detroit Tigers
Tarik Skubal finally had the bounce-back game we were hoping for (and cashed in on) and the books are quick to respect him again. Making the Tigers this short of a dog against someone with the talent like Darvish is bold and here’s why. This matchup comes down to lefties because both offenses use a load of them (Padres 5, Tigers 6). Lefties against Darvish are batting a mere .180 off of him this year, and the veteran has only been getting better over the past few months. He’s pitched at least 6 innings in each of his last 11 games and only allowed more than 2 runs in 4 of those matchups. Factor in that the Tigers’ offense is still one of the worst in the majors and we have all the makings of another brilliant outing.
Skubal is on the other end of the spectrum. He struggles more against lefties (.258 BA) than he has against righties, and while he bounced back with 6 shutout innings it was against the A’s so I don’t put that much stock into it. We do think Skubal has the stuff to bring his ERA down over the second half of the season but we don’t think he gets enough run support. Expect the Padres to close out the series and notch their third series win in a row.
Other Picks:
Braves ML @8/13
Astros ML @8/15
Dodgers ML @4/11
Brewers ML @1/2
