Best, Prop, Value Day Four

Best, Prop, Value day three ended with a 2-1 record, and a really solid 2-1 being that the +172 value bet came through. 

Carlos Alcaraz kicked off the betting day with an early morning match against Novak Djokovic where Alcaraz was a +172 dog.

In a classic match that went the maximum five sets spanning four hours and 45 minutes, Alcaraz came out victorious, stopping Djokovic from winning his fifth straight Wimbledon. 

The best bet came through as the Texas Rangers battled back from a 5-2 deficit to win 6-5 with a four run inning in the 8th. 

The lone loss of the day was the prop bet which was the Miami Marlins and Baltimore Orioles NRFI. This wasn’t close. The Marlins let up three runs in the bottom of the first to give us our one loss on the day.

Moving onto day four and our best bet comes from Baltimore.

Best Bet

Los Angeles Dodgers -102

The Baltimore Orioles are currently rolling, sitting at 57-35 and have now won eight straight.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are 53-39 on the season and are 7-3 in their last 10. 

Both teams are playing well for the season, and in this last stretch of games. The Orioles eight game win streak is due to come to an end eventually though, why not tonight?

The Dodgers have the pitching advantage, though neither guy has had much action so far this season. Dodgers go with rookie Emmet Sheehan on the mound who is 2-0 with a 4.35 ERA. The Orioles are going with the 2-2 Grayson Rodriguez who has a 7.35 ERA. 

I also like the over here, and Mookie Betts to have a big game to help the Dodgers win this. It’s not the prop bet, but I’ll throw out 2+ bases -120 for an extra play.

Prop Bet

Boston Red Sox over 4.5 runs

The Boston Red Sox are rolling and the Oakland As are, well, doing the opposite. 

The Sox are 8-2 whereas the As are 2-8 in their last 10.

The pitching matchup favors the As here, and the odds (-160) are too low to list as my best bet, so we will transition to the Red Sox over on runs.

They have hit this mark in six of the last ten games, and with the way they’re hitting right now, against a struggling As team I like them to do it again.

Value Bet

Mookie Betts to homer +750

There’s simply not a lot of value in any of the game odds in straight plays tonight. So let’s get weird.

I said before I think Mookie has a good game so let’s just ride with him. He leads the Dodgers with 27 home runs this season and has 10 in his last 18 games.

Rodriguez has only pitched 45 innings this season, hopefully he gets a little rattled by the Dodgers batting order and gives Mookie and the guys some balls to hit. 

At +750 this is obviously a shot in the dark but I’m feeling it.

In Conclusion

That’s it for day four. Let’s go dominate. Enjoy.
