13 Sep 01:10 New York Mets vs Arizona Diamondbacks

What I have to take into inconsideration for this bet is that the Diamondbacks still have a lot to play for, they are eyeing the playoffs, while the Mets have been giving more game time to their younger inexperienced players. The Mets are starting Jose Buto, he’s only started 2 games for them this season with the majority of him coming on as a relief pitcher, but in those 2 games he started the Mets lost.

Suggested Bet: (+1.5 Arizona Diamondbacks)

13 Sep 02:40 Colorado Rockies vs Chicago Cubs

Chris Flexen is not an ace and his numbers tell you that the Cubs will rock him in this game. Chris Flexen has an ERA of 7.36 for the season and a WHIP of 1.74. For September, his ERA stands at 11.25. The last time he played against the Cubs he only pitched for 2.1 innings but the Cubs scored 8 runs in that short period. Javier Assad is a much better pitcher, he has limited batters to a batting average of .223, for September he’s ERA stands at 2.03 in a combined innings of 13.1. Now the Cubs didn’t cover the spread in the first game, they could do it this time around. The weather in Coors Field always has a play on games having lots of runs, so the over could also be at play here.

Suggested Bet: Cubs ML/ Over 10.5

13 Sep 04:10 LA Dodgers vs San Diego Padres

The Dodgers lost game one but the over came with ease. The Dodgers are averaging 5.83 runs currently whereas the Padres are averaging 5.72 runs . The pitching from the home team hasn’t been the best and I feel as if the bet to take here is the over. In the last 10 games these two teams have played against each other, the over has been the bet to go, they are averaging 8.5 runs per game.

Suggested Bet: Over 7.5
