Major League Baseball Tips
Home Run
Today’s Top Picks:
Houston Astros @ Detroit Tigers — Houston Astros -1.5 @ -130
The Astros started the series with a 7-0 shutout today in what feels like a “missed bet” yesterday, but I was focused on the Dodgers. So that means we can catch up to speed with them today as my model has them cleaning up the trash at a similar rate. The Astros have 19 runs in their last 2 games, the Tigers have 0. Houston starts Hunter Brown for only the 2nd time this year, after giving up 0 runs in 6 innings 1 week ago. He gets to face the worst bats in the league and keep the train rolling. Detroit sends out Hutchinson who is 2-7 on the year with a 4.08 ERA. The bats should be live again, and they’ll (ideally) will pick up where they left off.
Tampa Bay Rays @ Toronto Blue Jays – F5 u4 @-109
The Rays offense has cooled since their surge after the return of Wander Franco and have now scored just 14 runs over their last 5 games, or 2.8 runs a game. Batting .272 over the past two weeks is exceptional, but their slugging being just .397 shows it’s mainly singles. Given how dominant Manoah has been against the Rays in his short career (1.47 ERA in 30.1 innings), we doubt they take him deep with consistency.
The Blue Jays on the other hand have been going yard on everyone lately. Hitting their stride at the right time winning 9 of 11, the Blue Jays offense has been exceptional across the board. Walking 10.3% of the time is 4th in the league and striking out only 16.3% is 2nd. We doubt they’re able to keep up such dominant numbers against Jeffrey Springs, but the numbers indicate they should be superior to the Rays offense. Springs has a 2.23 ERA since the beginning of August, and if it weren’t for one bad outing against the Red Sox it might be below 1. Expect both pitchers to throw a fine game through five innings and for this game to have a nervy, playoff feel. Give us the under.
