MLB Picks June 27: Cubs and Dodgers Headline Action

The Major League Baseball season is nearing the halfway point and each and every series gets more important heading towards the All-Star break. There is a full slate of games for June 27 with the Cubs and Dodgers the featured game.

Chicago Cubs versus Los Angeles Dodgers

Both teams enter play in second place in their division. The Dodgers have a +13 to +4 advantage on the Power Ranking Indicator. Neither team is playing great at the moment with the Cubs at “average” and the Dodgers “average down” on the Team Strength Oscillator. Adbert Alzoday is scheduled to pitch for the Cubs versus Clayton Kershaw for the Dodgers. Alzoday is 4-6 with a 4.19 ERA and -230 on the Pitcher Profit Oscillator. Kershaw is 8-7 with a 3.43 ERA and -122 dollars. The Totals Predictor indicates that betting “under” is a smart play and the Scores Predictor gives the Cubs a 5-4 edge with 62 percent confidence. I will go with the Dodgers to narrowly defeat the Cubs. Check the line before betting.

Los Angeles Angels versus Tampa Bay Rays

The Angels are 4th in the AL West and the Rays are second in the AL East after a 3-7 stretch. Los Angeles has a +6 to 0 edge on the Power Ranking Indicator and “average down” versus “dead up” on the Team Strength Oscillator. Patrick Sandoval is scheduled to pitch for the Angels and the Rays have yet to name their starter. Sandoval is 2-2 with a 3.69 ERA and -586 dollars on the Pitcher Profit Oscillator. It’s best to avoid the over/under bet with both teams on opposite sides of the line. The Scores Predictor gives the edge to the Angels by a 6-5 score with 76 percent confidence. I would take the Angels to win and cover.

Colorado Rockies versus Milwaukee Brewers

Milwaukee enters with the best record in the NL Central and the Rockies are 4th in the NL West. The Brewers have a +14 to +10 edge on the Power Ranking Indicator and “burning hot” versus “average” on the Team Strength Oscillator. Chi Chi Gonzalez is scheduled to pitch for the Rockies versus Eric Lauer for the Brewers. Gonzalez is 2-4 with a 6.12 ERA and Lauer is 1-3 with a 5.21 ERA. Gonzalez has been a better bet at +44 dollars versus -141 for Lauer. The Scores Predictor gives the Brewers a 5-1 win with 53 percent confidence. Bet “under” and take the Brewers to win at home.

Seattle Mariners versus Chicago White Sox

The White Sox hold the top spot in the AL Central and the Mariners are 3rd in the AL West. The Mariners are the hotter team at the moment at “burning hot” versus “dead up”. The Totals Predictor shows both teams playing in games trending “over” the line and the Scores Predictor has the Mariners winning by a 5-4 score with 85 percent confidence. I would avoid the over/under bet, but check the line closer to game time. Marco Gonzales is scheduled to pitch for the Mariners and Dallas Keuchel is set to take the mound for the White Sox. Gonzales is1-4 with a 5.10 ERA and -128 dollars on the Pitcher Profit Oscillator, while Keuchel is 6-2 with a 3.98 ERA and +253.  I will take the Mariners to continue their hot play and win on the road.

New York Yankees versus Boston Red Sox

In this classic AL East battle, the 1st place Red Sox take on the 3rd place Yankees. Boston has a +19 to +18 edge on the Power Ranking Indicator.  The Yankees are 6-4 over their last ten and are “average up” versus “average down” on the Team Strength Oscillator. The Totals Predictor shows the teams trending on opposite sides of the line. The Scores Predictor is heavily favoring the Yankees by a 7-0 score with 50 percent confidence. I like the Yankees on the road in a lower-scoring game, betting the “under” is a smart play.
