Game Analysis

Dave's Tuesday Free Play:

1* on Minnesota Twins -155

The Key: The Minnesota Twins are still very much alive in the AL Central after going 4-1 in their last 5 games to pull within 3 games of the White Sox for 1st play.  They are pretty much the forgotten team in this division and they like it that way.  This is a great chance for them to gain some ground against the last place team in the division in the Royals, who are 45-62 on the season.  The Royals have a plethora of injuries right now especially offensively to arguably their 2 best hitters in Witt and Garcia.  The Twins have the much better offense scoring 4.8 RPG.  They have the edge on the rubber tonight as well.  Taj Bradley has yielded 2 ER or fewer in 6 of his last 7 starts.  He has pitched 12 2/3 shutout innings in his last 2 starts against the Royals to improve to 2-1 with a 0.73 ERA in 4 lifetime starts against them.  Seth Lugo is 1-2 with a 5.40 ERA in 9 road starts this year.  He has yielded 12 ER and 5 HR in 9 innings in his last 2 starts against the Twins.  Lugo is 1-2 with a 7.92 ERA and 1.76 WHIP in 5 lifetime road starts at Minnesota.  Take Minnesota.

Play on: Reds +115 at circa
Game Analysis

This is a play on the CINCINNATI REDS (GAME TWO) for our Tuesday Free Play. Cleveland remains in second place in the American League Central and it is barely above water but the weak division has certainly helped. Gavin Williams is coming off one of his best starts of the season as he allowed two hits and no runs in seven innings while striking out 11 against the Twins. That start was at home where he has been solid with a 3.09 ERA across 67 innings and he has not been nearly as good on the road with his 4.55 ERA over 59.1 innings. The Reds have been on a solid run as they try to remain in the National League Wild Card race. Brady Singer has had a rough season but similar to Williams, his struggles have been on the road where he has a 5.89 ERA in 11 outings on the highway but he is back home here where he has made nine starts and posted a 2.98 ERA to go along with a 1.22 WHIP. Play (928) Cincinnati Reds

Fargo was 2-0 on Monday with wins on the +158 Marlins and +122 Giants and he looks to score big and add to the profitable season. Tuesday features TWO Winners highlighted by his A.L. Game of the Month!

MLB | Red Sox vs A's
Play on: Red Sox -152 at Bovada
Game Analysis

Jack's Free Pick Tuesday: Boston Red Sox -152

I'll hop back on the Red Sox again Tuesday after cashing them in Monday in a 4-2 victory in Game 1 of this series with the A's.  The reasons are mostly the same as we have two teams headed in opposite directions, plus the Red Sox have a big advantage on the mound tonight.

The Red Sox have gone 18-2 in their last 20 games overall while scoring at least 5 runs in 14 of those 20 games.  The A's are 4-20 in their last 24 games overall and have been held to 2 runs or fewer in 13 of those 24 games.  The injuries just keep piling up for them as they are now without All-Star C Shea Langeliers.

Rookie Jake Bennett is proving he belongs in the big leagues.  He is 6-3 with a 2.58 ERA and 0.94 WHIP in 10 starts this season, allowing just 17 earned runs, 4 homers and 9 walks in 59 1/3 innings.  He has allowed just 6 earned runs in 38 2/3 innings in his last six starts for a 1.40 ERA during this stretch.  Boston is 5-0 in Bennett's last five starts with all five wins coming by 3 runs or more.

Rookie Gage Jump has been overwhelmed in his first season in the big leagues.  He is 0-5 with an 8.31 ERA in his last five starts, allowing 20 earned runs and 7 homers in 21 innings.  The A's are obviously 0-5 in those five starts.  Bet the Red Sox Tuesday.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have one of the best offenses in the majors scoring 5.2 runs per game.  The Seattle Mariners have one of the worst scoring just 4.0 runs per game.  Seattle comes in really struggling going 1-5 in its last six games overall.  Los Angeles has gone 4-1 in its last five games.  The Dodgers have the rest advantage after having Monday off while the Mariners were finishing their 4-game series in Texas.  We'll fade Luis Castillo, who is 3-9 with a 4.85 ERA in 16 starts and three relief outings for the Mariners this season.  Give me the Dodgers on the Run Line.

Play on: White Sox +121 at Buckeye
Game Analysis

My selection is on Chicago over New York at 7:40 pm et on Tuesday.

The Yankees rallied for a decisive victory to open this series last night. I think they're overpriced on Tuesday, however, as they send Gerrit Cole to the mound against Anthony Kay of the White Sox. New York checks in 1-5 in Cole's last six starts. It's not that he has pitched all that poorly but the bats haven't shown up for him at all lately. He did hold the White Sox to two earned runs over six innings back on June 16th so Chicago will look to get back at the right-hander here. The White Sox rank 14th in the majors in xwOBA over the last week - 12 spots ahead of the Yankees in that department. Anthony Kay has quietly pitched well for the White Sox here at home this season, logging a 3.06 ERA and 1.30 WHIP to go along with a 5-2 record in 11 outings. Neither bullpen is in great shape entering this contest. Of note, New York used seven of the eight relievers on its roster in last night's victory. Take Chicago (8*).

AAA Sports' Selection: Minnesota Twins (ML).

Kansas City will start Seth Lugo -- He's been alright. But, his 5.40 earned run average on the road isn't so good.

The Royals have been playing better lately. But, they are still just 19-35 when playing on the road this season.

Minnesota will start Taj Bradley -- Over his L5 starts (all in July), he has a 2.90 earned run average.

The Twins are 4-1 over their L5 games played this season and Taj Bradley's been great.

We're on Minnesota.

FRANK’S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR FOR TUESDAY, 7/28:

My “Cutting Room Floor” plays are the situations I considered the closest to being worthy of investment but did not make the “final cut” for my official plays today for subscribers. The last play I cut for Tuesday is with the Minnesota Twins with the money-line versus the Kansas City Royals listing both starting pitchers Taj Bradley and Seth Lugo. Minnesota (53-54) has won four of their last five games after their 11-8 victory at home against the Athletics on Sunday. The Twins stay at home where they have won 8 of their last 11 games. They have also won 8 of their last 12 games against teams with a losing record. Kansas City (45-62) has won three games in a row after their 5-4 win at Detroit on Sunday. The Royals have lost 35 of their last 54 games on the road. They have also lost 22 of their last 34 games with the Total set in the 9-9.5 range. Take Minnesota with the money-line listing both starting pitchers. Best of luck — Frank.

Frank Sawyer’s Hollywood Sports improved their 13 of 19 (68%) MLB run with featured 25*/20*/10* plays by DELIVERING their 25* MLB NL East Total of the Month with the Atlanta-NY Mets Over last night to continue their 33 of 54 (61%) MLB winning streak with featured plays!

Why Trust Our Free Baseball Predictions?

The MLB season provides a golden opportunity. Add to your winnings from basketball, and increase your bankroll for football! What better way to do that than with free sports picks from MLB experts who specialize in baseball.

Here at Boyd’s Bets, we have compiled a group of the best baseball handicappers in the world. We have been in the business for nearly 25 years and have a history of full transparency.

That means we post accurate, timestamped odds.  We keep detailed records of all the picks our handicappers put into our system.

And we vet our experts to make sure that only the cream of the crop make our roster.  We work hard to put together a list of tipsters you can trust, and then we make sure they work to keep that trust.

Other sites make up the odds as they go to inflate their win percentages. We take great pride in making sure our experts use the same baseball lines that regular bettors get.

How We Handicap MLB Games

You haven’t bet on baseball before? Do you want to get started? Good, then we recommend taking a moment to read our tips for betting on MLB games. The article covers all the different types of wagers and odds you will come across.

We also put together a guide for handicapping baseball. It is a must for anyone who is trying to bet on baseball and be successful at it. This page gives you the information you need to beat the books. You will learn everything from parlay strategies to underdog systems.

The key to handicapping baseball is the starting pitchers.  Ace versus ace games play out much differently than when teams are forced to use a spot starter or a bullpen game.

Our experts dig into recent form, strikeout-to-walk ratios, pitch counts, home/road splits, and more to evaluate who has the edge on the mound.  Beyond just the starters, they look at bullpen strength and usage.  If teams are coming off multiple extra-inning games or have overworked relievers, they are going to be vulnerable to giving up a late lead.

You can’t just look at arms, though; offense is needed to put runs on the board.  We look at lineup matchups, platoon splits, and situational hitting stats.  Ballpark factors also come into play.  When you add in weather, travel schedules, and momentum, a complete picture starts coming together.  By weighing all of these factors together, our handicappers can spot value and deliver expert MLB predictions you can trust.

Don’t hesitate to contact us via email at jimmy@boydsbets.com. We would be more than happy to take a few moments out of our day to answer any questions that you might have.

FAQ
