22 July 01:05 Washington Nationals vs San Francisco Giants

The Giants are valued at 1.60 and as much as they are favourites for this game the bet I have to take here is the over. When Jake Irvin pitches the over has been the best pick, because he will allow runs in but the Nats are really a good offensive team, they also get their runs. Alex Wood starts for the Giants and he has an ERA of 4.35 for July. The Nats have a batting average of .261 and that’s 5th in the league while the Giants averaging .246 but against the Nats, it’s .250. Take the over here.

Suggested Bet: Over 7.5

22 July 01:10 Boston Red Sox vs New York Mets 

Fenway Park has been one of the best stadiums to bring the over and I like it for this game. The line is set at 9.5 and that tells you all you need to know, In their last 10 games only once did the Red Sox fail to get a single run but they have been averaging 6 runs per game. Every time the Mets visit Fenway park the over has been the bet to go for, in the last 10 meetings, the over came 9 times.

Suggested Bet: Over 7.5

22 July 03:40 Oakland Athletics vs Houston Astros

First game the Athletics actually played well but the better team came out on top and I’m going with that team once again to win game 2. Jp Sears has already played against the Astros this season and he allowed 5 hits, 2 runs in 6 innings pitched in a defeat to the Astros. The Astros start Frambler Valdez and he’s played Oakland twice this season in games resulting in wins for the Astros, in two games with an ERA of below 2.50.

Suggested Bet: Houston Astros ML
