MLB Betting Tips – 11 October

The MLB season is heating up and punter Justin Simelane has seen some opportunity for value in three of tonight’s and tomorrow morning’s games. Get your bet slip ready and take advantage of his betting tips.

11 Oct 19:07 Atlanta Braves v Philadelphia Phillies

This is the first game of the series and the 2021 world champs should win. The Braves ended the season on a good note winning 8 games of their last 11 and beating the Phillies twice at it. Braves are usually very good when hosting the Phillies in Atlanta and here they start their best pitcher, and in his last 2 games against the Phillies, Max Fried carries a 1.5 ERA. Now Ranger Suarez did not end the season well as things went downhill for him in 5 games he went 2-3 and in his last appearances allowed 8 runs in just 5 innings. We have to back the home team here, they have been ready for this game.

Suggested Bet: Atlanta Braves ML/ -1.5 Atlanta Braves

11 Oct 21:37 St Houston Astros v Seattle Mariners

When Justin Verlander is on the mound we don’t expect a lot of runs, he was the best pitcher of the 22/23 season holding an ERA under 2, so the under is a very good bet here. Astros have playoff experience making this their 6th year now, and with Justin being a pitcher who you rarely get runs off I see the Astros winning the first leg. In the regular season against Justin the Mariners never got more than 3 runs against him, take Astros ML OR the under.

Suggested Bet: Astros ML/ Under 7.5

12 Oct 03:37 LA Dodgers v San Diego Padres

This is a game between one side that is well rested and the other that is coming from a 3-game series. The Dodgers are favourites to win the world series having had the best season of all teams in the league and here they start Julio Urias. Now Julio is in his last 2 against the Padres he is 2-0. During the regular season, the Dodgers and Padres played each other 19 times and in those 19 times the LA side came out on top 15 times. Bet on the well-rested team that has a great offence with the likes of Mookie Bets.

Suggested Bet: LA Dodgers ML
