Top MLB Picks Straight Up for the Weekend

 
 

On Friday, Steven Matz is taking on Jake Peavy in a battle of the New York Mets hosting the San Francisco Giants. Matz got off to a slow start, but is pitching much better. Jake Peavy has a high ERA, and will struggle on the road in this game. This is an easy bet, and worth taking straight up. The bet for Friday night in Major League Baseball is the New York Mets -143 over the San Francisco Giants.

Bet on the Chicago Cubs on Friday. It’s a huge line, but it’s simple money. The Chicago Cubs are not going to lose the first game of the series to the Atlanta Braves. The Cubs are sending Jon Lester to the mound, and the Braves are going to struggle to touch him. The Braves are sending their youngster Aaron Blair to the mound. Blair will face one of the top offenses in all of Major League Baseball. Bet the Chicago Cubs -240 over the Atlanta Braves.

On Saturday, in a game between the Detroit Tigers and Minnesota Twins, you know who to bet here. Jordan Zimmerman and the Detroit Tigers are on the road, but so what. They are going to demolish the Minnesota Twins. The Twins are sending Tyler Duffey to the mound. Look for Detroit to get healthy with their offense in this one. Zimmerman will move to 5-0 on the season. Bet the Detroit Tigers -190 over the Minnesota Twins.

Zack Greinke is going to have his best start of the season on Saturday. Greinke and the Arizona Diamondbacks are at home on Saturday against the Colorado Rockies. The Rockies are a great offensive team, but Greinke has seen them plenty. The Rockies are sending Chris Rusin to the mound, against an Arizona team that has been teeing off this season. Take the Arizona Diamondbacks -146 over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday night.

Just one game on Sunday we want you to be aware of – the national Sunday Night Baseball game between the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox. With all due respect to Nathan Eovaldi, who is done in this game. David Price is coming off his best outing of the season, and it’s going to continue in this game. Look for the Boston Red Sox to finish the series strong with a big win over the Yankees. Take the Boston Red Sox -155 over the New York Yankees on Sunday Night Baseball.
