18 July 01:05 Pittsburgh Pirates vs Cleveland Guardians

Quinn Priester gets his first start in the MLB tonight and the rookie is decent, he had an ERA of 3.49 in the minors, with a win-loss of 20-13. Xzavion Curry gets to start for the first time this season. Curry has an ERA of 3.04 but this ERA is not on starts, he will pitch more innings tonight, I’m backing the team with an experienced MLB pitcher to win here. Cleveland have a better bullpen here with a team ERA of 3.92, I see them winning this one ending their drought while the Pirates lose their 4th game in a row.

Suggested Bet: Cleveland Guardians ML

18 July 02:10 Kansas City Royals vs Detroit Tigers

This is one of the games with the highest lines for the over for the night and I see runs here. Jordan Lyes has been terrible so far this season and in his last 5 he has lost 4 of those games and teams are getting at least 4 runs past him. With only 69 strikeouts and going 1-11 so far this season, Jordan Lyles is not going to shut out the Tigers. Take the over for this game.

Suggested Bet: Over 8.5

18 July 03:40 Oakland Athletics vs Boston Red Sox

Give me the over for this game, in Bostons last five away games the over has been the bet to go for. Now here they play the team with the worst bullpen in the league. Oakland is on fire, as much as they have been losing they have also been producing on the offensive end. The last series between this two was just recently and neither game was short on runs, take the over here.

Suggested Bet: Over 8.5/9
