Day 11 of Best, Prop, Value is upon us. Day 10 finished with a 1-2 record as the only win was the prop bet.
The best bet was somehow a loser as the Braves fell 8-6 to the Chicago Cubs.
The only win came from the U.S. Women’s team, ironically as they choked the game vs Sweden. They finished in the top 16th, their worst finish in history of the World Cup.
But they did pull through for us, hitting the over 4.5 corners prop bet as they did exactly what I said they needed to do in order to win the bet. Somehow, that was all they won though.
The Dodgers lost a freebie in the value bet slot as they were up 3-1 in the first to four bet, and went on to lose 8-3 to lose the +142 value bet.
San Diego will kick us off with the best bet to start the slate.

Best Bet
Dodgers +106
The Los Angeles Dodgers enter the afternoon meeting against the San Diego Padres with a record of 64-46 and a 2-1 series lead.
The Padres, who are somewhat of a disappointment this season, are sitting at 55-57 and 6-4 in their last 10.
The pitching duel isn’t much to worry about as both Tony Gonsolin for the Dodgers and Seth Lugo are having fine seasons, with very similar stats.
The Dodgers bats are rolling right now though, and can hopefully carry us to a best bet win.
Prop Bet
Mookie Betts 2+ bases
We stay with the Dodgers vs. Padres game for the prop bet, and we stay on the Dodgers side as well.
Mookie Betts 2+ bags is the prop bet today to double up here on the best and prop bet. If Mookie plays well m, it’s likely the Dodgers win and vice versa.
As the Dodgers are rolling right now, so is Mookie, batting 9/20 in his last five games.

Value Bet
White Sox +144
The Value bet brings us to Chicago where the 45-68 Chicago White Sox battle the 58-54 New York Yankees.
The Yankees, who are just barely above .500, aren’t having the season they necessarily expected up to this point. But, they’re still four wins above .500 and in playoff contention.
They are 4-6 in their last 10 though, which will need to change if they want to set this season on the right track. With their ace Gerrit Cole on the mound, it just might.
For our sake, we are hoping it doesn’t.
The White Sox are a mess. And that’s why they’re + money at home. But with a pitcher like Dylan Cease on the mound, I’ll never shy away from the value, even if it means betting on a team that is 25th in runs scored.
Dylan Cease’s final line:
