MLB | Sep 22, 2021 Dodgers vs Rockies |
Rockies +180 at SC Consensus |
Won $180 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units Normally I would stay away from betting against Walker Buehler but Coors Field is a little different. German Marquez is 8-2 with a 3.16 ERA at home this season and the Rockies are 45-28 at home. The Dodgers are just 6-5 on the road in September. If the Rockies can keep this game close going into the late innings, I think they can steal a win tonight. Take the value in the Rockies at home. |

MLB | Sep 22, 2021 Mets vs Red Sox |
Red Sox -159 at BetVegas |
Won $100 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units I'm a bit surprised the Sox aren't about 20 cents higher on the moneyline considering they are motivated and have ace Chris Sale on the mound. He has yet to allow more than two earned in six starts since his season debut. Mets starter Taijuan Walker has a 5.18 road ERA and hasn't personally won since July 3. |

MLB | Sep 22, 2021 Twins vs Cubs |
UNDER 7 -115 |
Lost $115.0 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units I don't even need to see the lineups for this game as the wind is projected to be blowing in from left field at nearly 23 mph -- hence the tiny total. Twins pitcher Joe Ryan (2.12 ERA) has been very good in his three big-league starts, and the Cubs' Kyle Hendricks is always capable of shutting a team out. |

MLB | Sep 22, 2021 #Royals vs #Indians |
UNDER 9 -114 | P |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units I fully expect this total to drop to 8.5, maybe even 8, as winds are projected to be howling straight in at Progressive Field at around 16 mph. As it is, the Indians have scored only eight runs so far in this three-game series and face KC's Carlos Hernandez, who has a 2.60 road ERA. There's a chance this is rained out, though. The Tribe's Logan Allen stinks overall but has a 3.09 ERA in two outings vs. the Royals. |

MLB | Sep 22, 2021 Nationals vs Marlins |
Marlins -123 at pinnacle |
Lost $123.0 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units Josiah Gray pitched well against the Marlins when he faced them but he has been really past his past couple outings. He has allowed 10 walks in his past two starts and at least one home run in every start this season. Elieser Hernandez allowed 2 ER in 5 IP against the Nats earlier this season and he has been solid lately. The Marlins are 9-9 in September and 6-5 at home while the Nats are 7-13 and 3-5 on the road. |

MLB | Sep 22, 2021 Blue Jays vs Rays |
Rays -107 at pinnacle |
Won $100 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units The Blue Jays achilles heal is their bullpen and today they are going with a bullpen game, starting with Julian Merryweather. Luis Patino has been much better at home this season with a 3.38 ERA, although he was hit hard by the Blue Jays in his most recent matchup. The first two games of this series had the tying runs on base in the ninth inning and I expect this game to be similar. However, I am going to go with the Rays at home because of the Blue Jays bullpen depth. |

MLB | Sep 23, 2021 White Sox vs Indians |
Indians +130 at Caesars |
|
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units This is the first game of a doubleheader and the Indians are home dogs in both games currently. The White Sox were just swept by the Tigers while the Indians salvaged the last game of a series against the Royals. I don’t think either team is good enough right now to sweep today and I think the Indians have the starting pitching advantage in both 7-inning games so I will go with the home dog in the Indians. If they win, we stay off game 2, if they lose we go with the Indians as home dogs again and hope to profit. |

MLB | Sep 23, 2021 Cardinals vs Brewers |
Cardinals +107 at BetVegas |
|
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units Adrian Houser has pitched well lately and pitched well against the Cardinals this season, but Adam Wainwright has pitched just as good, if not better and he has pitched well against the Brewers this season. The Cardinals have won 11 straight including the first 3 games of this series yet they are still dogs. The Cards are 15-6 while the Brewers are 10-9 in September, so with the starting pitching matchup a wash, I am gonna take the team that’s hot. Not to mention, the Cards gave all their top bullpen pieces the day off yesterday with the blowout. Take the Cards. |
