5 minMLB Best Betting Picks: Targeting Philadelphia Phillies, Texas Rangers on Tuesday Night
We have another loaded baseball slate for Tuesday night. Lets dive into some of my favorite plays on the MLB slate…
Cincinnati Reds vs. Miami Marlins Prediction
Anyone else find it weird that the total in this game dropped from 8 to 7.5? Nick Lodolo has struggled of late and Max Meyer gave up the most runs of his season in his last outing. The first game of this series soared over, but the total in this game has dropped with more than 70% of the bets (on VSIN) backing the over? This smells like a sneaky under spot in one of the first MLB games of the day…

Houston Astros vs. Texas Rangers Prediction
Tyler Mahle is making his first start of the season after an injury-riddled year, but the Rangers are catching steam against Framber Valdez? Something seems off here, and the fact that Mahle and the Rangers are catching this much steam with less than 30% of the bets (on VSiN) backing them on the moneyline. The Rangers do hit lefties well, so maybe this is one of those rare blow-up starts for Framber…
The Rangers playoff hopes are slim, but the Astros offense has been quiet over the last week or so. Let’s back a hungrier Rangers team at home, they are one of the sharper plays of the day on the moneyline.

Philadelphia Phillies vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
The Dodgers have ripped off three wins in a row, and the Phillies offense has been silent of late. They’ve lost four of their last five games, but even with the public preferring the Dodgers side, the odds have slightly shifted towards the Phillies. Cristopher Sanchez has struggled in the second half of the season, but a matchup against the overrated Dodgers could be exactly what the lefty needs.
The Dodgers might’ve won the first game of this series, but let’s not forget about the Phillies recent successes against Los Angeles. The Phillies won the previous four matchups against the Dodgers, and I’m willing to bet they bounce back on the road on Tuesday against Kershaw as he continues to work his way back from injury.
