Pick made: 25 seconds ago
EV Model Rating
Star rating: 3 out of 5
Marcus Semien's BABIP skill is projected in the 22nd percentile by the leading projection system (THE BAT X).. Marcus Semien is projected to bat 7th in the lineup in today's game.. The leading projection system (THE BAT) projects Nationals Park as the 3rd-worst park in MLB for righty base hits.. Nationals Park's elevation is near sea-level, one of the lowest in the league, which tends to lead to less offense.. Playing on the road typically weakens hitter stats in all categories due to the lack of home field advantage, which should be the case for Marcus Semien in today's game.

EV Model Rating
Star rating: 3 out of 5
It is likely that we will see a Hitters Umpire (Jen Pawol) calling pitches in today's game.. The leading projection system (THE BAT) ranks Nationals Park as the 9th-worst stadium in MLB for strikeouts.. This game is forecasted to have the 4th-highest humidity of all games today (93%); there is a small yet noteworthy link with increased offense (and decreased whiffs) when the weather is humid.. The Washington Nationals have 7 bats in the projected lineup that will hold the platoon advantage over Sean Manaea in this game, which is especially problematic given his large platoon split.. Sean Manaea will be at a disadvantage playing away from home in today's matchup.

We'll go with Big Pete. 

He has hit 43 dingers with a .885 OPS this season, while his Statcast profile includes strong hard-hit numbers across the board as you expect. Particular to this match, he has also posted a .554 xSLG against sinkers this season, which is relevant against Rodríguez’s primary pitch. The final game of the season creates some lineup uncertainty, but if Alonso receives his normal at-bats, his current power profile gives him the best chance to leave the yard.

I'll play the Baltimore Orioles to 49%

The starting-pitching edge belongs to Birds. Shane Baz has carried a heavy workload and posted a 4.11 ERA with a 4.27 xERA, giving the Orioles the more established arm in a finale where workload should matter. Elmer Rodriguez has struggled through his brief major-league sample, recording a 5.40 ERA, 5.58 xERA and 1.58 WHIP across 26.2 innings. His sinker and four-seam fastball have allowed a .431 xSLG and .498 xSLG, giving the O's a clear path to hard contact. A more talented lineup still means the Yankees should be favored but this is a touch too much. With motivation muted and possible rest affecting the Yankees, the Orioles offer the better side at plus money.

Jo Adell has hammered left-handed pitching this year, hitting .314 with a .266 ISO and nearly 50% hard hit rate.

Daniel Lynch has a pitching outs line of 15.5 so he’s expected to get plenty of runway, opening the door for multiple Adell at-bats against the lefty.

When Lynch departs, Adell will face a very vulnerable bullpen. Royals relievers rank 29th in home runs per nine innings.

I can’t get to the 8.5 total, and would recommend the Under to 54%.

The Cleveland Guardians have played to the Under in 14 of Messick’s 15 road starts.

While this one could be a little shorter than usual, the Guardians still have an elite bullpen backing him up – and I doubt they get too casual with their usage given they have the entire week to rest.

The Diamondbacks are stringing together hits nicely but rank 23rd in homers this season. They’re generally not a team that runs up the score with quick-strike offense.

More importantly, the Padres are unlikely to contribute much. Soroka limits hard contact and walks effectively, making him a tough arm to score on at the best of times.

Corbin Carroll leads all Arizona Diamondbacks players in ISO (.256) and barrel rate (13.8%) against Randy Vasquez’ most-used pitchers.

Given that, it should be no surprise Carroll has a strong track record facing the righty. Carroll has hit safely in five of 15 at-bats and, more notably, generated nine hard hit balls along the way.

The Padres are also unlikely to throw their best relievers out there with a playoff game coming Tuesday.

The LoanDepot Park roof figures to be closed today, making the temperature in this match-up 118° hotter than the average outdoor game on the schedule today — favorable for offense.. Sean Murphy has big-time power (83rd percentile) if he makes contact, but that's never a guarantee (28.3% K%). Today, however, opposing pitcher Janson Junk has a pitch-to-contact profile (20th percentile K%) — great news for Murphy.. Sean Murphy has seen a significant increase in his exit velocity recently; just compare his 95.6-mph average over the past week to his seasonal 87-mph average.. The leading projection system (THE BAT X) estimates Sean Murphy's true offensive ability to be a .302, providing some evidence that he has had bad variance on his side this year given the .059 discrepancy between that figure and his actual .243 wOBA.

Freeland enters as the worst-rated pitcher on Batters-Box’s current-season ratings while facing the highest-rated lineup on the day. Chicago has six elite-rated hitters and one more with a strong rating. Freeland has allowed 3+ runs in 75% of his 12 games this season while surrendering five or more hits in every outing. The White Sox have also posted a 117 wRC+, .339 wOBA and .761 OPS over the last week, making this a strong spot to back their offense early.

What Is An MLB Computer Pick?

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.

How To Use MLB Computer Picks

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.

If you're ready to get started with MLB betting, visit our dedicated page highlighting the best MLB betting sites.

Moneyline

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.

Run line

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.

Totals (Over/Under)

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.

NRFI/YRFI MLB Picks

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.

First Five Innings MLB Picks

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.

MLB Picks And Parlays

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.

If you're looking for more MLB picks content, check out our consensus picks and prop bets pages to get your fix. While you're at it, head over to our MLB promos page to get the best bang for your buck.

MLB Player Props

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.

MLB Futures Picks

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.
