As the MLB season moves into mid-June, teams are finding their identity, and bettors are looking to ride momentum and trends. This is the time of year where series outcomes can swing division standings—and our job is to find the value where the books might be slow to adjust. Whether it’s fading a cold team or riding a surging ace, we’re using current form, matchups, and trends to make the most informed calls.
Yesterday, we went 1 for 2. We cashed in on the Milwaukee Brewers as Christian Yelich homered and Trevor Megill sealed the 3-2 win over the Cardinals, helping Milwaukee close out the four-game series strong. However, we missed with the Washington Nationals, as the Miami Marlins came through with a 3-1 win and a sweep of the series thanks to Eric Wagaman and Dane Meyers.
Looking at today’s slate, our first pick is the Philadelphia Phillies (-132) with Mick Abel on the mound. The Phillies are 5-1 in their last 6 games and looking strong, while the Marlins are ice-cold at home, going just 1-7 in their last 8 in Miami. We expect the Phillies to stay hot.
Our second pick is the Baltimore Orioles (+104) with Zach Eflin, who has been a steady performer. Baltimore is 11-4 in their last 15 games against Tampa Bay and has dominated this matchup on the road, going 8-1 in their last 9 games in Tampa. The Rays have been struggling, and this is a good spot to back the value dog.
