AI Picks · 7 Bets · Aug 13
DET Team Total o3.5 (-128)
Detroit's lineup carries a 159 wRC+ vs LHP over its last 12 and has hit Parker Messick both times they've faced him, tagging him for 4ER and 3R in five innings each meeting despite his elite 2.13 xERA over his last 3. Cleveland's bullpen has been a sieve at 5.83 ERA over its last 12, so anything Messick leaves behind gets amplified, and Detroit is averaging 5.8 runs at home in this pitcher's recent starts. The market is pricing Messick's shiny rate line and ignoring that this specific lineup has consistently reached him.

Keider Montero u3.5 Ks (+134)
Montero owns an 11.0 K% over his last 3 and has punched out just 1, 2 and 5 for a 2.7 average, sitting well under this 3.5 line. Cleveland makes plenty of contact with an 18.1 K% vs RHP over their last 12, and Montero got only 1 strikeout across 5 innings the last time he saw them. Getting plus money on the under against a low-strikeout arm facing a contact lineup is a mispriced number.
Found at 4:54 AM ET
Braxton Ashcraft u5.5 Ks (+105)
Ashcraft has struck out exactly 5 in each of his last 3 starts, sitting right below this 5.5 line, and Miami makes reasonable contact with a 21.4 K% vs RHP over their last 12. At 5.3 IP/gs he rarely buys the extra inning needed for a sixth strikeout, and he fanned just 4 in 5 innings against this club earlier. Plus money on the under against a pitcher this consistently parked at 5 is the value.
Found at 4:54 AM ET
SEA Team Total u3.5 (-120)
Seattle carries a 60 wRC+ vs LHP over their last 6 and 68 over their last 12, an established, not streaky, offensive slump. They face Max Fried, who owns a 1.85 xERA over his last 3 and has smothered this exact lineup in two prior meetings (0.75 ERA, holding them to 1 ER and 0 ER across 6 IP each). The market's number lets a lineup this cold reach four runs against an ace who has already proven he shuts them down.
Found at 10:53 AM ET
Andrew Abbott u4.5 Ks (+106)
Abbott carries a 12.2 K% over his last 3 and has averaged just 3.0 Ks per start (4, 1, 4) even while facing high-strikeout lineups in PIT (31%) and ATH (33%). Today's White Sox lineup makes more contact than those, and his 14.9 BB% keeps at-bats going without producing whiffs. Pricing the under at plus money on an arm this incapable of missing bats is the mispricing.
Found at 10:53 AM ET
Max Scherzer u4.5 Ks (+130)
Scherzer has a 22.0 K% over his last 3 and has averaged only 4.3 Ks per start while working short outings (4.7 IP/gs), and his outs line sits at just 15.5. He draws a Boston lineup striking out a slate-low 15.9% over its last 6 vs LHP, an even tougher contact profile than the STL and PHI lineups he just faced. A short-outing, modest-whiff arm against the best contact team on the board should land under, and the under is priced as an underdog at +130.
Found at 10:53 AM ET
LAD Team Total o4.5 (+112)
The Dodgers own a 135 wRC+ vs LHP over their last 12 and draw Shane Drohan, who carries a 6.88 ERA and a 10.2 Barrel% over his last 3 while surrendering elite hard contact. Los Angeles is averaging 5.8 runs at home in recent starts and has scored in every home outing lately. Plus money on a top lineup against a lefty getting squared up is more value than the number implies.

  • BOS bullpen fresh (2.0 IP over 1g) — manager may hook starter early; lean SP K/outs UNDER
  • TOR bullpen elevated (4.0 IP over 1g) — manager likely leaves starter in longer; lean SP K/outs OVER
  • BOS — Payton Tolle: recent opponents high-K: ATH 33%, ATH 33% — K stats may be inflated vs strikeout-prone lineups
  • TOR — Max Scherzer: recent opponents low-K: STL 19%, PHI 18% — recent opponents make less contact; today's lineup may be tougher
Max Scherzer u4.5 Ks (+130)
Scherzer has a 22.0 K% over his last 3 and has averaged only 4.3 Ks per start while working short outings (4.7 IP/gs), and his outs line sits at just 15.5. He draws a Boston lineup striking out a slate-low 15.9% over its last 6 vs LHP, an even tougher contact profile than the STL and PHI lineups he just faced. A short-outing, modest-whiff arm against the best contact team on the board should land under, and the under is priced as an underdog at +130.

AI Analysis
A neutral-site pick'em between two below-average recent offenses with a 43% rain chance offers no clean angle and threatens pitcher props with delays.

AI Analysis
Two of the worst offenses on the board (49 and 59 wRC+ vs RHP) meet with a low total already posted, so the market has already accounted for the weak run environment.

LAD Team Total o4.5 (+112)
The Dodgers own a 135 wRC+ vs LHP over their last 12 and draw Shane Drohan, who carries a 6.88 ERA and a 10.2 Barrel% over his last 3 while surrendering elite hard contact. Los Angeles is averaging 5.8 runs at home in recent starts and has scored in every home outing lately. Plus money on a top lineup against a lefty getting squared up is more value than the number implies.
