Milwaukee Brewers are close to clinching the NL Central Divison crown with a four-game lead over the Cubs with 19 games left entering Wednesday night’s action. The Brewers have gotten remarkable pitching in the last month and their lineup has given enough offense to help them win five of out of their last seven games. 

In Wednesday’s game against Miami, Milwaukee’s bats lost power in a 2-0 loss to the Marlins. With the defeat, the Brewers remain four games ahead of Chicago for the division lead and five games ahead of them in the loss column.

His  K/9 rate is 7.7 while his WHIP is 1.48. Houser is 2-1 at home this season with an ERA of 4.79 in nine games plus eight starts.

The Miami Marlins are still on the hunt for one of the last two wildcard spots in the National League with 16 games to go in the season. They have a brutal schedule over the last two weeks with games against the NL west-leading Dodgers, the NL wildcard-leading Phillies, and now this four-game series with the NL central-leading Brewers. 

Entering into Wednesday night’s game with Milwaukee, Miami is 4-4 in this stretch. That night, starter Braxton Garett secured his ninth victory while throwing six shutout innings as part of the Marlins 2-0 victory. The Marlins are still a 1/1 game out of the final wildcard spot in the National League.

Eury Perez will pitch for them in today’s series finale. Perez is 5-4 on the season in 17 starts including six quality starts. He has permitted 64 hits in 83.2 innings pitched with an ERA of 2.90. Perez’s K/9 rate is 10.6 and his WHIP is 1.10. For away matches, he is 2-3 in nine starts with an ERA of 4.17. He has conceded 36 hits in 41 innings and has 44 strikeouts in that span. Over his last 5 games, Perez is 0-0 with a 3.16 ERA. He has sent out batters in 25.2 innings pitched.

MatchPlug Prediction For Milwaukee Brewers VS Miami Marlins 

The Miami Marlins are favoured in this pitching game of two 5-4 pitchers. Perez has a powerful strong hit-to-innings pitched ratio this season while House has stormed the bases with runners in his 19 starts this season. Miami has struggled with scoring this year but will get the best chance this afternoon against Houser. 

Marlins’ starter Perez isn’t just good at keeping runners off base but he has an outstanding K/9 of over 10 heading into this game. The Brewers too are hitting only .235 during the day this season.

Prediction: Milwaukee Brewers Moneyline.

MLB EXPERT PICKS: Boston Red Sox VS New York Yankees betting Predictions.

Boston Red Sox VS New York Yankees battle it out in another make-up match for their ongoing series. They were supposed to play on Monday Night and instead ended up playing a doubleheader on Thursday. 

New York swept both matches to tie Boston at 73-72, but Wednesday’s game was rained out. The Yankees won the first game 3-2 and the second game 4-1.

So, both sides will play a doubleheader today and this is the coverage for the first game happening at Fenway Park. The proposed starters for Game 1 are Michael King (4-5. 2.92 ERA) for New York and Tanner Houck (4-9, 5.28 ERA) for Boston.

The Boston Red Sox should sweep this series or at least win three games to have a shot. They and New York are trailing 7.5 games behind Seattle for the last playoff spot. Tuesday was bad, particularly for the lineup, where the Red Sox went 0-for-19 with players in scoring position and had only 13 hits and three runs in two games.

At this rate, Boston may have to allow younger players to get in on the action and they did so in Game 2 when rookie OF/SS Ceddanne Rafaela hit his first career homer.

In Game 1, Boston will send right-hander Tanner Houck to the mound. Houck has made only four starts since being absent for two months due to a facial fracture from a line drive against the Yankees. In his last start against the Orioles, he allowed five runs in 5.1 innings on Friday. Houck has started six games and played in 11 against the Yankees in his career, going 2.39 ERA with 33 strikeouts in 37.2 innings.

The numbers game indicates that the New York Yankees are done. They’ve won three consecutive games, but they are 7.5 games behind the final wild-card spot, which is the Mariners at 81-65 with 17 matches to go. To the Yankees, they could have just given up. But by sweeping Tuesday’s doubleheader, that was the first time at Fenway Park in 17 years.

New York is short of a dominant starter besides Gerrit Cole, so they rely on a bullpen that has a 3.10 ERA. Michael King is one of those pitchers, who just wants to go five innings and allow the bullpen do the rest. He’s permitted two runs in his last two starts and struck out 13 in 10 innings. King allowed only two runs over his last four starts and before then, was coming out of the bullpen.

MatchPlug Prediction For Boston Red Sox VS New York Yankees 

Despite the Red Sox owning the series this year, the Yankees are playing way better baseball, winning 11 of their last 15 games. They accomplished this feat by pitching excellently and having a supportive bullpen. King did a nice job when asked to start. Overall, he is 2-2 with a 2.06 ERA on the road and is 1-0 with a 1.29 ERA over his last 3 games. Meanwhile, Houck is 3-5 with a 5.09 ERA during the day and is 2-4 with a 5.76 ERA at home.

Prediction: Boston Red Sox Monyeline.

The New York Mets won’t be in the postseason in 2023 but are already making big plans with the newly hired president of baseball operations David Stearns. A native of New York and a Mets fan, Stearns helped the Brewers secure multiple division titles. Will he deliver more hardware to Queens?

New York averages 4.36 runs (20th) and hit .238 (26thO with a .725 OPS (18th). The team has hit 192 long balls (12th) and stole 106 bases (15th) in 2023. The NY pitching staff compiled a 4.43 ERA (19th) and a 1.38 WHIP (21st) with 50 quality starts (14th).

Senga will start for the Mets today in Queens. In his last appearance, he held Minnesota to two runs in six innings, but he played better in past start, fanning 12 Mariners in seven frames. He hasn’t conceded over three runs since late June and is 5-3 with a 2.52 ERA in 14 home starts this season.

The Arizona Diamondbacks won their last two series, taking five of seven games from Colorado and Chicago. Will he be able to hold off Cincinnati and San Francisco in the NL Wild Card chase?

Arizona scored 4.64 per game (13th) and hit .252 (14th) with a .739 OPS (16th). They’ve hit 157 long balls (20th) and stole 148 bases (3rd) this season. The Diamondback’s pitching staff combine for a 4.57 ERA (21st) and a 1.33 WHIP (19th) with 53 quality starts (12th).

Kelly will take the mound for the visitors in tonight’s series finale. He is 7-3 with a 3.53 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP in 13 road starts this season. In his two outings this September, he has permitted two total runs in 12.2 combined innings vs. the Rockies and Cubs. Besides a poor outing against the Dodgers on August 30th (seven runs and 12 hits), he’s been reliable, holding nine of his last ten opponents to three or fewer runs.

MatchPlug Prediction For New York Mets VS Arizona Diamondbacks  

Merrill Kelly has not pitched on the road the same way he did at home this season. Opponents hit .262 against him in road starts, compared to .186 at home, with 21 more hits in six fewer innings pitched. He also struck out fewer batters away from the friendly confines of Chase Field.

In Kelly’s last start on the road, he only conceded one run but walked five batters and fanned only five hitters. At home against the Rockies two starts ago, he had 12 strikeouts in seven innings. At Dodger Stadium on August 29, he put 15 runners on base and conceded seven innings. At Dodger Stadium on August 29, he put 15 runners on base and conceded seven runs. He also held Cincinnati scoreless with one hit and 12 Ks in seven innings at home. Lesser non-contact outs and more runners on base often lead to more runs.

Senga, on the other hand, has dominated Citi Field, holding the opposition to a .186 batting average with 106 strikeouts in 82 innings. He has a 2.52 ERA and 1.10 WHIP in 14 home starts, with 22 combined Ks in his last two outings in Queens, the Diamondbacks, who do not hit well on the road (.245 BA and .318 OBP), will fall to him next.

Prediction: New York Mets Moneyline.

Seattle Mariners are having a fantastic season but intend to leave their slump to reach the postseason for the second time in a row. Luis Castillo will start the upcoming game and he has been one of the best pitchers in MLB, permitting only 68 runs in 175.1 innings pitched while throwing 191 strikeouts. 

Additionally, with a .229 expected opponent Batting Average, a 6.2 Walk Rate, and a 3.373 expected ERA, opponents make minimal contact and struggle to drive in runs against Luis this season.

While Castillo has been great, the lineup also stepped up, delivering 4.77 runs per game. Julio Rodriguez is slashing .287/.342/.504 with 30 home runs and 275 total bases while J.P. Crawford is slashing .263/.380//423 with 15 home runs and 196 total bases. Other members of the lineup doing well are Cal Raleigh who is slashing .237/.315/.479 with 28 home runs and 212 total bases, Teoscar Hernandez and Eugenio Suarez added 44 homers and 460 total bases to round out the lineup, making Seattle tough to stop at the plate.

Betting On The Los Angeles Angels

• 1XBet Spread: +1.5
• 1XBet Moneyline: 2.112
• 1XBet Over/Under: Over 6.5
• BetMGM Spread: +1.5
• BetMGM Moneyline: 2.15
• BetMGM Over/Under: Over 7.5

The Los Angeles Angels are having a tough season and wish to finish well enough to surpass the .500 mark by the end of the year. Chase Silseth has displayed flashes with a 49.2 Ground Ball Percentage but has struggled on the mound, permitting 25 runs in 48.1 innings pitched.

Additionally, with a 10.2 Barrel Percentage, an 11.2 Walk Rate, and a 4.21 expected ERA, opponents make good contact off the bat and drive in runs easily against Silseth this year.

While Silseth struggles, the lineup has been a ray of hope for the team, scoring 4.68 runs per match. Shohei Ohtani is slashing .304/.412/.654 with 44 home runs and 325 total bases while Mickey Moniak is slashing .280/.307/.490 with 13 homers and 149 total bases. But the back half of the lineup did well too. Brandon Drury slashes .259/.300/.480 with 21 home runs and 202 total bases while Logan O’Hoppe and Matt Thaiss have included 19 homers and 154 total bases to add depth to the lineup.

MatchPlug Prediction For Seattle Mariners VS Los Angeles Angels 

The Angels wish to end the season on a positive note, but the Mariners want to make a postseason push and commandeer the game right from the first inning. The Mariners should drive in runs with Julio Rodriguez, J.P Crawford, and the other members of the lineup making contact and powering the ball to easily circle the bases. 

Seattle should limit Los Angeles’ lineup with Luis Castillo pitching multiple scoreless innings to allow the bullpen to close the game with an easy lead. They should win the game and cover the spread in a dominant win at home.

Prediction: Seattle Mariners -1.5.

The Baltimore Orioles have won seven consecutive series since mid-August. They have some work to do if they are to maintain their lead in the AL East, especially with the Tampa Bay Rays on their heels. 

Baltimore scored 5.17 runs per game (6th) and hit .259 (6th) with a .756 OPS (8th). They launched 170 long balls (15th) and stole 99 bases (17th) this season. The team’s pitchers have a combined 4.05 ERA (14th) and 1.27 WHIP (12th) with 61 quality starts (9th).

Gibson will start for the Orioles tonight. He is 6-4 with a 5.69 ERA and 1.44 WHIP in 12 home starts this season. In his last outing, he held the Angels to three runs and six hits in six innings. He was 3-2 with a 7.89 ERA and a 1.48 WHIP in five starts last month.

The St. Louis Cardinals are fresh off a successive series of wins over the Cincinnati Reds and Atlanta Braves. They are not making a playoff push, but can still be competitive a few nights a week. 

They averaged 4.58 runs (17th) and hit .253 (13th) with a .753 OPS (9th). They’ve launched 196 home runs (9th) and stolen 91 bases (21st) in 2023. The pitching staff combined for a 4.83 ERA (25th) and 1.46 WHIP (28th) with 44 quality starts (22nd).

Rom should take the hill for the Cardinals tonight. In his last start, he conceded four runs and seven hits, including two home runs, in 3.2 innings vs. the Reds. Rom sports an 11:10 K:BB ratio in four outings against Philadelphia, Pittsburgh (two times), and Cincy.

MatchPlug Prediction For Baltimore Orioles VS St. Louis Cardinals

Baltimore has the more seasoned pitcher taking the mound, while its offense can break out offensively every match, they do not have enough edge in both departments to earn a bet on a cover. 

Gibson has an ERA north of five at home, at home, and St. Louis slashes an impressive .255 BA/.330 OBP/.430 SLG/.759 OPS vs. right-handed pitchers this season. He may have won three of his last starts, but he has pitched some duds lately, plus a seven-run shelling vs. the Chicago White Sox on August 30th.

Rom doesn’t have enough experience for bettors to wager on the first-position Orioles, who slash .256 BA/.338/.440 SLG/.778 OPS vs. lefty pitcher and are consistent with hitting well at home. He has held two of his four opponents to only five combined runs, but he is prone to playing the long ball (four HRs) and conceding 12 runs in his other two outings.

The Cardinals may perform well enough to keep the match close, but for a winner, the Baltimore Orioles are a better choice.

Prediction: Baltimore Orioles Moneyline.

The Colorado Rockies have struggled over the past week and have lost five of their last six games. They will want to change that with a win over Chicago, earning them the second victory in their last seven games. 

Colorado averages 4.38 runs per game. Their .247 batting average is 18th in the league. Their .308 on-base percentage is 25th, while their .398 slugging percentage is 21st. Their pitching has been bad, conceding 5.94 runs per game. Opponents have a .287 batting average against them, which is 30th in the league. The Rockies have an ERA of 5.69 also 30th, as is their 1.53 WHIP.

The last time Ty Blach started for Colorado, he conceded eight hits and 4 runs in 5 innings, resulting in a 9-8 loss to the San Francisco Giants. He has to bring a better effort if his team is to win.

The Chicago Cubs played well in the past week, winning 6 of their last 9 games. They presently occupy the second Wildcard spot in the National League, with a two-game lead over Arizona. When they face the Rockies today, they’ll try to secure a win which should give them their 7th win in their last 10 games and the series win.

Chicago averages 5.03 runs per game. Their .245 batting average is 12th in the league. Their .328 on-base percentage is 10th, while their .419 slugging percentage is 14th. They conceded 4.35 runs per game. Opponents have a .243 batting average against the Cubs, which is 11th in MLB. Their 4.01 ERA is 11th too, and their 1.26 WHIP is 10th.

In James Taillon’s last start for the team, he gave up one hit and no runs in six innings, resulting in a 1-0 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. He’ll need to deliver another good effort and more runs for Chicago to win this matchup.

MatchPlug Prediction For Colorado Rockies VS Chicago Cubs

The Cubs have not been playing well offensively and scored just 12 runs in their last four matches. They’ll continue to struggle in offence against Blach who has done well on the mound in recent home starts. He has a lot of success with Chicago in previous contests, holding them to 41 in three starts and will keep their offense in line.

Colorado has struggled in recent matches, losing two of their last three home games. Although they played well offense-wise, scoring 17 runs in their last three home games. They will play well offensively in today’s match as they hit the ball well against right-handers, and Taillon hasn’t been in the best shape on the mound in recent starts. He gave up 10 runs in three previous starts.

Prediction: Chicago Cubs Moneyline.

The San Francisco Giants are still rooted firmly in the race for one of the last two wildcard spots in the National League with less than 20 matches to play. After going through a poorly timed six-game losing streak, San Francisco has now run off four straight wins. 

Trailing 4-3 in the bottom of the tenth on Monday, they rallied for two runs courtesy of LaMonte Wade Jr.’s single to centre to conclude the walk-off win. They continue to fight four other teams for the remaining wild card spots.

The Cleveland Guardians’ hope to make the playoffs is looking impossible after a 3-7 stretch of baseball entering Tuesday night’s match in San Francisco. They have lost three successive games following Monday night’s 5-4 defeat by the Giants in 10-innings. They led 4-3 after scoring one run in the top of the 10th but close Emmanuel Clase permitted two in the bottom of the 10th to collect his 9th loss of the season.

Logan Allen will pitch for the Guardians in today’s series finale. He is 7-7 on the season in 22 starts including seven top starts. He has permitted 114 hits in 117.1 innings pitched with an ERA of 3.68. His K/9 rate is 8.7 and his WHIP is 1.34. In road matches, Allen is 5-3 in 11 starts with an ERA of 3.36 and 61 strikeouts in 56.1 innings pitched. He went 2-2 with an ERA of 4.15 while striking out 25 batters in 26 innings pitched for his last five games.

MatchPlug Prediction For San Francisco Giants VS Cleveland Guardians

Although Allen has been one of the Guardians’ most consistent starters this season, he will be pitching for a Cleveland team that is now in must-win mode. The Giants have won four consecutive games entering Tuesday night’s match and have won all of Harrison’s two home starts this season.

Matter of fact, Harrison has an ERA of 3.28 at home in two starts with 16 strikeouts in 11.1 innings pitched. San Francisco can rely on him to get them into the sixth inning and turn the game over to the bullpen to finish off the light-hitting Guardians. Cleveland is 3-7 in its last ten games and has all but waved the white flag in the AL Central Division race. The Giants will outlast Cleveland on Thursday and secure the win.

Prediction: San Francisco Giants Moneyline.
