Well guys things have been going well for us on the diamond lately and I am honestly really feeling the reads.

Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Cincinnati Reds Prediction
Back to one of my favorite tried and true betting strategies here: do not fix things that are not broken. The over has hit in ten straight games now for Cincinnati as they not only have continued to display their inability to keep runs off the board but have also started scoring. They were never going to keep losing, eventually, teams find their game again. This season is long, they are not looking great but they are playing baseball again and that is great for us.
The Reds and Pirates have allowed more runs than any other teams in the MLB this season and the total is 4-0-1 in their last five meetings. Brubaker has been a gas can this season and I know nothing about Connor Overton, to be honest but I am looking at an expected slash line north of .900 in this matchup and am going to ride with that and what I know about how these totals have been going. Game 1 of the series, look for someone to try to get it going early.
