Another weekend of baseball has arrived, and that means it’s time to bet on the action. There are countless enticing games to wager on Sunday. I have selected a few that give bettors a great chance to win.
Here are the best games on Friday for betting on Major League Baseball.
New York Yankees vs. Detroit Tigers Picks
Yankees vs. Tigers Betting Preview
If you are looking for an easy win, the Yankees vs. Tigers game is a perfect option. The Tigers are one of the worst teams in baseball at 19-31. They are facing the Yankees, who have dealt with some adversity as of late.
Luke Voit and Corey Kluber were recently added to the injured list. Voit is a substantial blow in the lineup, considering Giancarlo Stanton is still not healthy. However, the one thing you need to know about this game is the pitching battle.
Promising youngster Casey Mize is on the hill for Detroit. However, he will have to pitch against one of the best arms in baseball in Gerrit Cole. It’s not typical that Cole gets beat up by his opponents, especially against a lousy club like the Tigers.
Cole is 6-2 with a 1.81 ERA. He has recorded 92 strikeouts in 64.2 innings. Between Cole and the powerful bat of Aaron Judge, New York is an easy win on Friday.
Baltimore Orioles vs. Chicago White Sox Picks
Orioles vs. White Sox Betting Preview
The Orioles and White Sox series is a very lopsided matchup. Chicago won game one on Thursday by a score of 5-1. They should follow this win with another victory on Friday.
Baltimore is in last place in the American League East. The White Sox are one of the best teams in baseball. Matt Harvey will throw for the Orioles. He has been better than expected, but he is not a respectable pitcher anymore.
Harvey is 3-5 with a 6.31 ERA in 2021. He will face Dallas Keuchel, who is 3-1 on the season. Keuchel has not been Chicago’s most reliable starter. Nevertheless, the White Sox have one of the best offenses in the game.
The team is averaging .256 with a .343 OBP. These numbers are massive in terms of combined team statistics. The pitching staff also has a cumulative 3.22 ERA. This matchup is an easy choice to wager.
San Francisco Giants vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Picks
Giants vs. Dodgers Betting Preview
Who does not want to bet on the biggest game of the weekend? Wagering the Yankees and White Sox may lead to easy money, but we want excitement as bettors. The Giants vs. Dodgers series this weekend is the biggest on the MLB slate.
In Game One on Thursday, Los Angeles prevailed by a score of 4-3. This was thanks to a late-inning home run by Max Muncy. The Dodgers have now won four straight against the Giants. All the wins have been in the past week.
Walker Buehler will throw against Anthony DeSclafani on Thursday. I would expect the Dodgers to prevail because they are a better team. Los Angeles is hot currently, and I do not advise betting against the best team in baseball.
