Dirtbags MLB Saturday
Follow us on twitter after we get y’all some winners! This will help us grow as we continue to dominate MLB.
These prices are per Draft Kings, which are similar to FanDuel if those are available to you. Some use off shore accounts that have more juice than what is listed or are unavailable. If H+R+RBI is unavailable to you then I suggest you split a 1 unit bet 33% each or whatever % you’d like to 1 or 2 hits, 1 run & 1 RBI. You should get + money on 2/3 of those and that will help long term. Or find a way to pair them up in 2’s or 3’s (parlay). For baseball season, I personally bet 1 unit to win X and don’t lay more than -160. This is refers most to player props. Questions? Just ask!
Early Slate
1:00pm cst: Kansas City Royals vs. Minnesota Twins (-240)
The Minnesota offense is starting to hit its stride with the return of a healthy Joey Gallo. Kansas City is really slumping right now especially on the offensive side of the things. Brad Keller has been a bright spot for KC so have Bailey Ober for the Twins. There are some props here that I like.
Pick: Jorge Polanco H+R+RBI Over 1.5 (-115)
Max Kepler H+R+RBI Over 1.5 (-145)
2:00pm cst: Seattle Mariners vs. Toronto Blue Jays (-265)
The Mariners will be starting rookie RHP Easton McGee from Hopkinsville, Kentucky against Blue Jays’ Kevin Gausman who is off to a hot start with a sub 3.00 ERA. The Mariners have some decent numbers going against Gausman so that isn’t a bad place to start. I wanted to play McGee strikeouts over but at least right now it hasn’t been posted.
Pick: Cal Raleigh H+R+RBI Over 1.5 (+110)
Teoscar Hernandez H+R+RBI Over 1.5 (-105)
3:00pm cst: Chicago Cubs vs. Miami Marlins (-130)
The Marlins slowly but surely are keeping pace in the National League and I think they can steal a win here against the Cubs. Chicago will be pitching RHP Caleb Killian who has yet to pitch this season. Killian was blown up in his 3 starts last year so we will be buying on the Marlins here.
Pick: Marlins (-130)
3:00pm cst: Cincinnati Reds (-155) vs. Oakland Athletics
Hunter Greene on the mound for the Reds who will be looking to rack up the strikeouts against Oakland. Greene has only tallied over 8 strikeouts once in his last 3 starts. Kyle Muller for Oakland has had a rough season but there is hope as the Reds are not great against LHP. I like the price here on the Reds against a struggling team and pitcher.
Pick: Reds (-145)
3:00pm cst: Cleveland Guardians vs. Boston Red Sox (-135)
Zac Plesac will be on the mound for the Guardians today who has not gotten off to a hot start. The same goes for Brayan Bello who has a 9 ERA two starts into the season. The Guardians are tempting at a plus price but I rather go with the total.
Pick: Over 9 (-115)
4:00pm cst: Philadelphia Phillies vs. Houston Astros (-125)
The surging Phillies will have Zach Wheeler on the mound tonight against the ace Christian Javier. Wheeler has not been so sharp and the total of 7.5 is a bit low on this one. I like it to go over.
Pick: Over 7.5 (-105)
4:00pm cst: Baltimore Orioles (-165) vs. Detroit Tigers [Game 2]
This will be the second game of a double header Saturday. Grayson Rodriguez who was supposed to pitch yesterday will be on the mound in this game against the Tigers’ LHP Matthew Boyd. I usually bet Rodriguez strikeouts over but because it is a double header it has not been posted yet. Orioles kill LHP and if they drop game 1 then I love them on the ML even more.
Pick: Orioles (-155)
Grayson Rodriguez Strikeouts Over 5.5 (-130)
Evening Slate
5:00pm cst: San Francisco Giants vs. San Diego Padres (-180)
The total on this game is set at 15.5 mostly because this game will be held in Mexico City with thin air due to the altitude. Sean Manaea will take the mound for the Giants and faceoff with Joe Musgrove. Both lineups have had success against both pitchers. With this being a game in Mexico City I’m going to get a little exotic here with the batters.
Pick: Xander Bogaerts Hits Over 1.5 (+130)
Nelson Cruz Hits Over 1.5 (+145)
Fernando Tatis Jr. Total Bases Under 3.5 (-130)
Mitch Haniger Hits Over 1.5 (+190)
5:00pm cst: Pittsburgh Pirates (-150) vs. Washington Nationals
This is just a fade of Chad Kuhl here. Going with the hot Pirates.
Pick: Pirates (-150)
6:00pm cst: New York Yankees vs. Texas Rangers (-165)
Aaron Judge will be out of the lineup again for the Yankees vs. Nathan Eovaldi and the Rangers. Eovaldi has struggled in the past against the Yankees and this Rangers lineup has not faced the Yankees’ Jhony Brito. I think the Yankees win here but Brito is so unpredictable. He either has a great game or gets blown up. I don’t trust Eovaldi against this Yankee lineup.
Pick: Anthony Rizzo H+R+RBI Over 1.5 (-120)
DJ LeMahieu H+R+RBI Over 1.5 (-120)
6:00pm cst: Tampa Bay Rays (-130) vs. Chicago White Sox
There is a good chance of high scoring in this game. Tampa Bay will have RHP Calvin Faucher on the mound who has a high ERA three games into the season. Lance Lynn will be pitching for the White Sox and he has definitely been below average.
Pick: Rays Team Total Over 4.5 (-135)
Brandon Lowe H+R+RBI Over 1.5 (-120)
6:00pm cst: Los Angeles Angels vs. Milwaukee Brewers (-140)
Corbin Burnes at home against LHP Reid Detmers for the LA Angels. The Brewers aren’t dominate against LHP but the role players really show up against them. This is a great spot and price to take the Brewers at home.
Pick: Brewers (-140)
Joey Wiemer Hits Over 0.5 (-120)
Owen Miller H+R+RBI Over 1.5 (+120)
Night Slate
7:00pm cst: Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Colorado Rockies (-115)
Noah Davis will be on the mound for the Rockies tonight who has been great for us in his first two starts this season. Time to go back to the well here. The Rockies also do a great job against LHP so its the perfect storm.
Pick: Rockies (-115)
8:00pm cst: St. Louis Cardinals vs. Los Angeles Dodgers (-150)
LHP Jordan Montgomery will be on the mound for the Cardinals against LHP Clayton Kershaw. It looks like the Dodgers are the way to go here with how locked in Kershaw has been but the LA offense has been poor against LHP.
Pick: Under 8 (-105)
