Seattle Mariners (Gilbert) @ Detroit Tigers (Rodriquez)
SEA -1.5 (+105)- The Seattle Mariners are looking to sweep the Detroit Tigers and extend their win streak and lead in the AL Wild Card. The Mariners are turning to ace Logan Gilbert to get them going this afternoon and he’s also in need for a bounce back game. I expect this to be a low scoring game while the two starters are out there, they don’t strike out many but they have a historic of low scoring. The Mariners are 4-2 SU in their last six games on the road in Detroit, I like them to close out this series with a sweep. I’m betting SEA -1.5 (+105) to get us kicked off with today.
Los Angeles Dodgers (Kershaw) @ New York Mets (Bassitt)
LAD ML (-148), U7.5R (-114) & NRFI (-134)- We have the final game to be played between these two powerhouses before they meet again in the playoffs which they absolutely will! One of these two teams will be in the World Series and this series has been electric. It’s tough to ever bet against C. Kershaw(LAD) when he is pitching, this guy has been electric all season. Now, the same can be said for C.Bassitt(NYM) who hasn’t lost in August! This is going to be a very low-scoring game with these two on the mound, and I’m betting on a scoreless 1st inning as well. Today, I’m betting on LAD ML(-148), U7.5R(-114), and NRFI(-134).
