Joe Duffy off a nice 2-1 day led by IL Runline Game of the Year on the Orioles. Clear-cut best bet of the day is a side MLB winner tonight at OffshoreInsiders.com
Free winning bet from Grandmaster Handicapper Joe Duffy is:
PITTSBURGH -1.5 +125 Houston at MYBookie
When an inferior team is posted as an away favorite and the oddsmakers tell you this is their best chance to win in recent play, go with the oddsmakers’ knowledge. It wins on both the run and moneylines, but even better on the runline at up 69.10 units and an 8.9 ROI.
Of course the fact Paul Skenes is pitching is why they are the favorites. His numbers are insane with a 1.93 ERA and .87 WHIP, even crazier on the road at .86 ERA, .61 WHIP and .180 OBP against. Jake Bloss 6.94 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and horrid .345 OBP against.
It may shock some, but Pittsburgh is only two games behind Houston in the standings, so with a massive pitching edge, we lay the 1.5.
