Wednesday’s Free Hot MLB Picks

May 20, 2008

Sports Betting at the Sportsbook

For Wednesday we’ll take a look at a pair of big value under dogs in Major League Baseball.  Remember that the key in betting baseball is in the quality of the bets, as well as the quality of the lines.  You can drastically improve your risk-to-profit ratio by finding and betting consistent winning underdogs.

Milwaukee Brewers @ Pittsburgh Pirates
Home dogs aren’t as strong in baseball as they are in other sports, but they are always worth a look.  I’ve been ragging on the Brewer’s bullpen all season and with good reason.  They simply can’t hold a lead.  The Brewers should also have concern for Ben Sheet’s lack of control after about the 4th inning.  The guy hasn’t pitched a full season in a long time, take it easy on him!
Pick:  Pittsburgh Pirates +115

Seattle Mariners @ Detroit Tigers
Huh?  This is an easy win for the Tigers, you say?  There’s no such thing for the Tigers this season who, despite being touted by all of the major sports networks as the offensive powerhouse to end all other discussions of offensive powerhouses in MLB history, are ten games under .500 and (at press) actually have a worse record than the Mariners.  The bats just aren’t what everyone thought they would be and the pitching has also been consistently underwhelming in Detroit.
Pick:  Seattle Mariners +130
