Junior Caminero o0.5 Total Home Runs (+319)
Junior Caminero has the contact profile to leave the yard, with two homers, a .304 ISO, a 58.8% hard-hit rate, and a 17.6% barrel rate over his last six games. Pérez’s hard-contact issues and Atlanta’s homer-prone bullpen give him multiple paths.
o8.5 (-105)
The Over 8.5 is mostly about bullpen volatility. Atlanta’s relief corps has been vulnerable to homers, and Tampa Bay’s pen has been even shakier by xERA. Even with Atlanta’s offense cold, both teams have enough late-game scoring paths to clear this number.

Bryce Harper o0.5 Total Home Runs (+305)
Fastballs and changeups account for nearly 70% of what Cristian Javier throws against left-handed hitters.
That should play into the hands of Bryce Harper, who has gone nuclear when facing those two pitchers this season.
Harper has hit .354 with an xwOBA of nearly .500. More importantly, his barrel rate sits at 17.2% and his xSLG has cleared .700.
u8.5 (-109)
The Houston Astros are 26th in hard hit rate and 28th in squared up contact against righties this month. They’re not stringing together many damaging swings.
While the Philadelphia Phillies have generated more hard hit balls, they’re not finding barrels. Only the Guardians rank below the Phillies in barrels vs. RHP in September.
Play to 53%.

Wyatt Langford o0.5 Total Home Runs (+500)
Mariners righty Logan Gilbert has surrendered 11 homers across his past seven starts with an unheard of .403 ISO allowed to right-handed hitters. Langford has hit 12 of his 16 homers against righties with a .210 ISO, and he’s also faced Gilbert 21 times, so there’s growing familiarity.
Jake Burger o0.5 Total Home Runs (+525)
Logan Gilbert has the fifth-worst HR/FB rate among starters in the second half at 21.8%, along with the 11th-worst HR/9 at 2.12. He just gave up four dingers in his last start and has surrendered 11 home runs since the beginning of August. Lefties and righties are hitting him just the same for power. I'll roll with Jake Burger in this spot. I have his fair price at 20%, so there's plenty of value on a batter with nine homers in the second half. He's gone deep three times over the last three games and brings a hot bat against a cold arm, with a great price on a small slate.

Aaron Judge o0.5 Total Home Runs (+185)
Hot weather and the wind blowing out creates a great environment for homers, with a 22% boost projected for this game.
Aaron Judge also shines against RyanFeltner’s pitch mix. Isolating the three pitches he uses at least 20% of the time facing righties, Judge owns a .270 ISO and remarkably high 21.3% barrel rate.
o8.5 (-109)
Ryan Feltner has allowed nearly two baserunners per inning over the last 30 days. He is giving up a ton of traffic, and the New York Yankees certainly have the power to cash in.
The Colorado Rockies quietly rank eighth in road wOBA vs. southpaws the past two months, and could cause headaches for Max Fried.
Play to 55%.

Tristan Peters o0.5 Total Hits (-135)
Tristan Peters has been swinging a hot bat, hitting .400 over the last week while clearing this hits prop in four of his previous five games. Jared Jones has allowed hard contact recently, and Peters’ own 55.6% hard-hit rate gives this Over solid support.
CHW (-109)
I got this at 52% and have the fair price closer to 54%. The White Sox have already dropped both games of this series, and getting swept should provide plenty of motivation. There might be some interest in the Pirates with the Sox's starter, Hagen Smith, making his first start, but he's been a nasty lefty out of the bullpen this year, with nine scoreless outings in 10 games and 23 Ks over 16 innings. Jared Jones looks like a pitcher who struggles on visiting mounds, with a 4.0 BB/9 away from home compared to 2.6 at PNC Park. His road WHIP is also half a point higher away from Pittsburgh. I see this as a 50/50 game on a neutral field, and home-field advantage is worth at least another 2%, or 20 points, to me. The White Sox are fighting to hold onto the AL Central lead, while Pittsburgh has already secured the series and Chicago has one more chance to avoid the sweep.
Our experts and prediction models are hard at work analyzing the data. Check back shortly for today's picks, or explore our Computer Picks for inspiration.
MLB picks are bet suggestions based on our computer's assessment of the game. Tons of betting data goes into a computer pick, including pitching matchups, injury reports, analytics, and even recent betting trends.
You can use the tables above to help with your bets during the MLB season. The first section includes free, computer-generated picks for daily Major League Baseball games. Baseball bettors can choose to follow the computer, fade the computer, or simply use our computer picks as one element of their betting strategy.
This page also tees up access to deeper betting trends. For example, if a club's run line is favored, you can check their ATS trends, potentially opening up some quality underdog bets.

This is the most common and easiest wager for a bettor to make when it comes to MLB picks. Basically, to win an MLB moneyline pick, you just have to choose which team will win the game.
It's simple: if you bet the White Sox moneyline over the Red Sox and Chicago wins, you win your bet.
The run line is another name for a point spread that you may be more familiar with in NBA and NFL betting. A point spread varies in the NFL and NBA from as little as 0.5 points up to double-digit spreads. A baseball run line is almost always a 1.5-point spread.
The favorite will be -1.5 while the underdog will be +1.5. At the end of the game, if you take away 1.5 runs from the favorite or add 1.5 runs to the underdog and they end up winning the game, you win your MLB pick against the spread.
Another common wager is to bet on the total in baseball, which is a bet on the total runs scored in the baseball game. You are simply choosing whether the final score will be Over or Under that total. Betting the Over/Under on a matchup is a great way to get started in MLB score predictions.
A new and emerging MLB betting market is the NRFI/YRFI bet. These are quick-hitters in which you make a wager on the O/U total of the first inning, typically set at 0.5 runs. Thus, the bet is coined as No Run First Inning or Yes Run First Inning. No need to wait a couple of hours to cash a bet when it could be done in 20 minutes or less.
The above options, moneyline, run line, and Over/Under, can also be placed on the first five innings of a game rather than the full game. Many experienced bettors will use this approach because, typically, this will take bullpens out of the equation and make your job researching the game easier. After all, you can just focus on the starting pitchers.
If you want to combine multiple games into one mega wager, you may consider making a parlay bet. A parlay is when you pick two or more MLB games on one single betting ticket, which will increase the payout of your bet.
But it also comes with more risk, as each of those MLB picks must hit for your ticket to pay out. Our parlay calculator is a great tool to find out what your potential payout would be.

Player props are a great way to hone in on an individual matchup for a game. These types of wagers will be individualized for a player: Will Shohei Ohtani hit a home run? Will Gerrit Cole get seven strikeouts? Will Paul Skenes allow two earned runs?
You simply choose whether this outcome will happen or not. Keeping up to date on daily pitching matchups and batters on a hot streak can give you a huge boost when placing player prop bets.
Lastly, prior to the season and even throughout the season, you can place futures bets on all the long-term awards and outcomes. You can lock in an MLB pick on who will win their division, which squad will win the World Series, or even who will win the Rookie of the Year, MVP, or Cy Young.
