Thursday’s Free MLB Picks

Sports Betting at the Sportsbook

There are a lot of great games going in Major League Baseball on Thursday.  We’ll take a look at our three best bets of the day including a very nice home underdog, plus one line that really jumped out and got me excited!

Milwaukee Brewers @ Pittsburgh Pirates
Yes, I’m on the Pirates again.  Why not?  They have just as good of a record as the Brewers, and they have the better starting pitcher going tonight.  Until the Brew Crew find some stability in their middle and long relief I won’t be betting on them, I’ll be betting against them.
Pick:  Pittsburgh Pirates -120

Arizona Diamondbacks @ Florida Marlins
I love a good home underdog.  I know that Arizona has looked unstoppable early on, but the Marlins have a great young team that could easily capitalize on a road-weary D-Backs squad.
Pick:  Florida Marlins +112

New York Mets -113 @ Atlanta Braves
The Mets aren’t great, but Johan Santana still is.  He’s not getting the hype he did in Minnesota, though I’m not sure why.  He still has great numbers, they just aren’t astronomically better than everyone else.  I will take him at -113 100 times out of 100, at home or on the road.  It just doesn’t matter.  Take the Mets Thursday.
Pick: New York Mets -113
