30 Aug 19:05 Baltimore Orioles vs Chicago White Sox

The White Sox have been hit hard by the best team in the American league. The Orioles have scored 18 runs in just two days and now the White Sox send Dylan Cease to the mound for game 3. Dylan has struggled all of August having an ERA of 8.22, in his previous start he allowed 9 runs in just 4.1 innings to the Athletics. The same Athletics that were swept by the Orioles just a week ago, I’m taking the home team to complete the sweep here.

Suggested Bet: Baltimore Orioles ML

30 Aug 20:15 St.Louis Cardinals vs San Diego Padres

Miles Mikolas has struggled this month and in his two starts with a combination of 10.2 innings, he’s allowed 12 runs. Rich Hill starts for the Padres and unlike Miles Mikolas who’s featured in at least one win for the Cardinals this month, Rich Hill hasn’t. Both starting pitchers are not convincing enough to tell me this game won’t have run, take the over.

Suggested Bet: Over 7.5

31 Aug 00:40 New York Mets vs Texas Rangers

With 29 games left for the season, the Mets’ season is almost over. They didn’t accomplish what they wanted, and now the Rangers on the other side are a team with still a lot to fight for. The Rangers are fighting for the Division and they know if they lose games like this the Astros or Mariners could take it from them. The Texas side was out of form but it appears as if they have now gotten their mojo back, they currently have a batting average of .252. The Mets will get their runs here as Dane Dunning hasn’t shut out a team in a while but the Rangers will outscore them, take the Mets.

Suggested Bet: Texas Rangers ML

31 Aug 02:40 Colorado Rockies vs Atlanta Braves

The Braves have the most wins of any team this season, which also means they have been the best team to bet on. Darius Vines is a rookie pitcher who will be making his debut here for the Braves. If it was a dominant team I’d stay away from the Braves but the Rockies have been getting rocked. Take the Braves to get the sweep here.

Suggested Bet: Atlanta Braves ML
