Washington Nationals 4-9 vs Cleveland Guardians 7-6

Total 9.5 (Over)

Looks like 67% of the betting handle is on the over in this matchup while only 44% of the bets are on it. This, to me, signals Pro money on the over. Winds blowing 5-10 mph out to left-center. Cleveland trots out Cal Quantrill who has a 6.52 ERA and Washington has Trevor Williams with a 4.35 ERA. Many things point to the Over in this matchup.


KC Royals 4-9 vs Atlanta Braves 9-4

Total 9 (Over)

Both teams have a 7-6 record on the O/U this year. There is a big discrepancy between the handle and the percentage of bets to the Over here. A windy game with 15 mph winds.


Houston Astros 6-7 vs Texas Rangers 7-5

Total 8.5 (Over)

Both pros and the public seem to be on the Over in this one. Houston is 9-4 to the Over and Texas is 8-4.

Houston is coming home after scoring 8, 4, and 7 runs vs the Pirates. Scoring is up overall in the MLB with Houston expected to be one of the best teams in baseball. While we are only 13-14 games into the season, they need to get going here soon.


St. Louis Cardinals 6-8 vs Pittsburgh Pirates 8-5

Total 9 (Over)

Pittsburgh +135

Pittsburgh is off to a pretty decent start to begin the season. They did lose a key offensive weapon in Cruz for a few months due to injury, but the bats remained hot last night winning 5-0.

77% of the handle are to the Over while only 52% of the tickets are for the Over. I see some value on Pittsburgh at +135 as I see this as more of a coin-flip game. Jake Woodford will be taking the hill for the Cards with a 9.00 ERA.
