The model is screaming about the value on this game, specifically regarding the total and the run line. We have a total set at 8.5, but my model sees this hitting 9.3 easily. That is a 9.6 percent edge on the over. Look at the pitching matchup. Shohei Ohtani is on the mound for the Dodgers and he has been nearly untouchable with a 0.74 ERA. But the Pirates are starting Jared Jones, who carries a much more vulnerable 4.82 ERA. Even with Ohtani being a literal god on the hill, the Pirates offense ranks 6th in the league. They can put up runs. On the other side, the Dodgers offense ranks 3rd. They are going to feast on Jones. We are also looking at the spread. The book has the line at 1.5, but the model sees a 12.8 percent edge on the Dodgers at plus 1.5. It sounds weird to take the better team with runs, but that is where the value sits. The Dodgers are 6 and 4 in their last 10 games. They cover the spread on the road 56 percent of the time. Pittsburgh is a decent home team, but their defense ranks 19th. That is a massive gap compared to the Dodgers who have the best defense in baseball. This game should be high scoring, and the Dodgers should keep it within a run if they do not win outright. Trust the model on the over.

The public sees Shohei Ohtani on the mound and immediately hammers the under. They are ignoring that Pittsburgh has the 6th ranked offense and Jared Jones is prone to giving up runs. The total is the real play here.

This game is all about the pitching discrepancy. Michael King takes the mound for San Diego with a 3.41 ERA. He has been a bit shaky lately with a 4.27 ERA in recent starts, but compare that to Brady Singer for the Reds. Singer is struggling with a 5.89 ERA on the season and it has ballooned to 6.49 recently. Cincinnati has the 26th ranked defense in the league. That is a recipe for disaster against a Padres team that needs a win. The model sees a 12.4 percent edge on San Diego at plus 1.5. The Padres have already beaten the Reds this season with a 4.0 run margin. While San Diego's offense is currently ranked 30th, they are facing a bottom five defense. This is the ultimate get right game for their bats. The Reds offense is 18th, but they have to deal with a Padres defense that ranks 7th in the majors. San Diego covers at home 53 percent of the time, while the Reds are 2 and 8 in their last 10 games. The momentum is completely in favor of the Padres here. Even though the model leans toward the over 7.5, the real play is taking the runs with San Diego. Singer is just too inconsistent to trust, and King has the higher ceiling to shut things down.

Bettors are fading the Padres because they have the worst ranked offense in the league right now. They are missing the fact that Brady Singer is in a total tailspin and the Reds defense is a sieve.

Tampa Bay is one of the most reliable teams on the board today. They are 38 and 25 and they absolutely dominate at home. They cover the spread 68 percent of the time in their own ballpark. Today they face a Boston team that is 10 games under 500 and ranks 29th in offense. Drew Rasmussen is starting for the Rays and he has been solid with a 3.00 ERA. The model sees a 12.2 percent edge on Tampa Bay plus 1.5, but I also like them on the moneyline at minus 155. The total is set at 7.5 and the model is hitting the over hard with a 7.8 percent edge. Tampa Bay averages 4.5 runs per game and they are facing a Red Sox defense that is decent but not elite. The Rays have already taken 3 of 4 from Boston this season with an average margin of 1.8 runs. Boston is 4 and 6 in their last 10, just like the Rays, but the talent gap is obvious. Rasmussen should be able to navigate a weak Red Sox lineup that struggles to find consistency. With Tampa Bay's history of covering at home and their statistical advantages across the board, this is one of the cleanest plays of the day. Take the over and back the Rays to handle business.

The public thinks Boston is due for a bounce back in this rivalry. But the numbers show Tampa Bay is nearly twice as likely to cover at home compared to Boston on the road.
