03 Aug 00:40 Miami Marlins vs Philadelphia Phillies

The Phillies have been excellent during this series, covering the 1.5 spread in the first two games, and I see them ending it in style here. The Marlins have been having issues with their bullpen. After the All-star break they have been terrible, they went on an 8 game losing streak and now find it hard to win any series. Take the Phillies to close things out here.

Suggested Bet: (+1 Phillies )

03 Aug 02:10 Kansas City Royals vs New York Mets

Last night the Royals managed to beat the Mets in the extra inning, now the same wont follow here. Alex Marsh will be starting, and the Royals have never won a game when he starts (0-5; ERA of 6.75). Kodai Senga had a beautiful month of July with an ERA of only 1.93, I will not be overthinking this one, the Mets are the better team with the better pitcher take them to win.

Suggested Bet: New York Mets ML

03 Aug 04:10 Los Angeles Dodgers vs Oakland Athletics

I’m going with the over yet again here. This year when these clubs have met, no game has gone under or been shut down. Both teams are top 10 when it comes to teams that score the most runs in the league. At home the Cubs average 5 runs per game while away the Reds average 4.54 runs per game. The line is already set high for the game and that tells you a lot, take the over here.

Suggested Bet: Over 7
