Thursday night provided a two-game MLB appetizer, Friday brings full course of baseball and we got some picks for you.
Two National League games and an inter-league Central Division game are on the docket Friday.
Pitchers: Matthew Boyd vs. Sonny Gray
Money Line: Reds (-175); Tigers (+150)
Over/Under: 9
Pitchers: Joe Musgrave vs. Jack Flaherty
Money Line: Cardinals (-180); Pirates (+145)
Over/Under: 8
Pitchers: Madison Bumgarner vs. Chris Paddack
Money Line: Padres (-130); D’Backs (+114)
Over/Under: 8
Here’s what we like.
Single: Take Arizona and the generous (+114). Bumgarner gets off to a good start with his new team and shuts down the Padres on the road.
Double: If you into over/unders take the under 8 in the Arizona/San Diego game and maybe even do an Arizona/under parlay.
Triple: Speaking of parlays ... Put the Cards (-180) and Reds (-175) into a two-team parlay. Both should win their openers against a couple of bad teams in Detroit and Pittsburgh.
Home Run: Here are a few players we like to go yard Friday: Mike Moustakas, Reds (+250); Rhys Hoskins, Phillies (+285); Cody Bellinger, Dodgers (+235); Yoenis Cesepedes, Mets (+390).
