Hi guys, for tonight, I have released 5 MLB Plays - One Double Dime Play + 4 Single Dime Plays! With two of them being FREE Premium Plays, good luck!
MLB - 953 San Francisco Giants @ 954 Philadelphia Phillies
(Starting Pitchers: Y. Petit vs. R. Hernandez)
***FREE PREMIUM Play***
Yesterday, these two teams combined between them 29 hits, so they are coming for tonight’s contest w/ a nice offensive rhythm. With Petit and Hernandez on the mound, I don’t think that this is change dramatically for today.
Petit has been decent in a relief role and has a nice 3.86 ERA / 3.05 FIP / 3.34 xFIP line to show this season, but his struggles vs. LH batters are well noticed: .371 wOBA + 6.02 FIP + 4.45 xFIP! Yikes! Now, here some bad news for him…. PHI’s lineup for tonight:
1. Ben Revere (L) CF
2. Jimmy Rollins (S) SS
3. Chase Utley (L) 2B
4. Ryan Howard (L) 1B
5. Marlon Byrd (R) RF
6. Grady Sizemore (L) LF
7. Cody Asche (L) 3B
8. Cameron Rupp (R) C
9. Roberto Hernandez (R) P
He will face 6 LH batters w/ the first 4 of them hitting all from the left side! I expect him to struggle a bit in this bad matchup.
On the other end, I just don’t trust in Roberto Hernandez. He had a nice start @MIL just before the all star break but, once again, his K/BB numbers were subpar w/ 3/2. This could be problematic against a Giants’ offense that has been pretty decent in this 2nd half of season and is ranked #8 & #11 in L14 days in K% & BB% rates, so I expect them to make Hernandez work hard for his pitches.
With the two SP’s having tough matchups, I’m taking my chances w/ OVER at this 8-runs line.
Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on Over 8 (w/ Y. Petit & R. Hernandez) @ -110 / 1.91 on Betonline
MLB - 979 New York Mets @ 980 Seattle Mariners
(Starting Pitchers: J. deGrom vs. E. Ramirez)
***FREE PREMIUM Play***
I understand that it is tough to cash w/ OVER in games involving the Mariners b/c the UNDER is 55-40-4 so far in the season, but I think that we have a good chance tonight…
NYM’s SP Jacob deGrom has some good numbers to show for the season w/ 3.18 ERA, 3.25 FIP & 3.45 xFIP! He has a great 23.5% K% mark for the season and his last 3 starts were amazing in that regard as he compiled 27 K’s vs. just 4 BB’s! However, I just can’t ignore the fact that he has faced ATL twice and MIA in those 3 games, and these teams are ranked #25 & #29 in K%’s! He had some pretty favorable matchups and indeed he took care of the job. SEA is ranked #9 in K% in L14 days and they are coming from a nice 14-hits outburst from last night. I expect deGrom to struggle a bit in here.
On the other side, SEA will send Erasmo Ramirez to the mound. Ramirez has some awful numbers to show w/ 4.58 ERA, 5.71 FIP & 4.93 xFIP! His command has been even worst w/ 1.45 K/BB ratio. This is where I like the Mets to be decent offensively! NYM has been a patient lineup all season long! They are ranked #4 in BB% w/ 9.1% & in L30 days = #9 w/ 8.9% BB%! I expect them to put some extra pressure on Ramirez and obviously, I’m taking the OVER in here!
Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on Over 7 (w/ J. deGrom & E. Ramirez) @ -125 / 1.80 on Bookmaker
