Someone remind me via comment next time I pick a big home favorite. I hate picking them and I make my money picking road underdogs! Man I hate when I try and get smart. Still up for the year, last few weeks, last 2 days… but I hate losing! Back to basics and it’s a huge one…
Today’s Free MLB Pick is:
Team Line Opponent
A’s +164 at Red Sox
A’s +116 (Under 9) at Red Sox
Ok boys and girls, what I want you to do. Whatever you normally would wager on a game, bet one forth to half on this 2 team parlay. Right now at Pinnacle you can get this parlay for 4.7 to 1. Bet $100 get $470, bet $50 get $235, etc.
I feel like the A’s have a great chance in this one in what I think is going to turn out to be a well pitched game. It’s Brett Anderson vs Brad Penny. Anderson has been hot lately, with a 1.93 ERA in his last 3 starts and a 1.13 ERA in 2 games (16 innings) against the Red Sox this year. Brad Penny has not been quite as good lately but with the pressure of the Yankees taking over first place and his home ERA being 1.5 runs less than his road ERA, I think he’s going to turn in a good performance.
This is anything but a sure pick, but at over 4-1, I like my chances on this one. I think the odds the bookmaker have on the A’s winning (only about a 33% chance) are way off. Take the A’s and under 9 for a huge win!
