MLB Units for August (-5.73 units)

Early Slate

  • 5:40PM CST: St. Louis Cardinals (+114) vs. Cincinnati Reds (-135); Total 9

Hunter Greene has been great for the Reds. He has even better numbers against this Cardinals lineup as well. The book is still out on Erick Fedde. I like this price.

Play: Reds (-135) [via DraftKings]

  • 5:40PM CST: Seattle Mariners (+105) vs. Detroit Tigers (-125); Total 7

Neither of these offenses have gotten off to a hot start. They have both struggled. Now, with the Tigers having Tarik Skubal on the mound should help tonight. Not only that but George Kirby has struggled against the Tigers. Bad combo.

Play: Tigers (-125) [via DraftKings]

Evening Slate

  • 7:00PM CST: New York Yankees (-290) vs. Chicago White Sox (+240); Total 9

Yes, the White Sox just had their best offensive game of the season but Nestor Cortes should not be -290 against any team! Let’s see if these Sox can go back to back.

Play: White Sox (+240) [via DraftKings]

  • 7:00PM CST: Los Angeles Dodgers (-115) vs. Milwaukee Brewers (-105); Total 8.5

Gavin Stone has not been a lock down pitcher for the Dodgers this season. The Brewers offense has been hot and I think this is the perfect spot for them to get a win back.

Play: Brewers (-105) [via DraftKings]

Night Slate

  • 8:30PM CST: Toronto Blue Jays (-115) vs. Los Angeles Angels (-105); Total 9

Carson Fulmer has been a pretty pitcher for the Angles this season trying to make a comeback from top prospect status long ago. Kevin Gausman, another SEC pitcher has been great against the Angels. I think we may get a low scoring game that has the Blue Jays winning the game. The Angels bullpen can be dicey unless Joyce is on the mound closing it out.

Play: Blue Jays (-115) [via DraftKings]

  • 8:30PM CST: Atlanta Braves (-105) vs. San Francisco Giants (-115); Total 8

The Braves won 1-0 last night in extra innings. This could be another low scoring game. Charlie Morton was lit up last time he was on the mound. He typically bounces back from an embarrassing start like that. It’s risky but I think the Braves can steal another game.

Play: Braves (-105) [via DraftKings]
