Free MLB Picks For Friday October 8, 2021

Dodgers vs. Giants

BEST BET: Giants at the moneyline with BetRivers (+105)

To quote Arnold in the movie Predator: if it bleeds, we can kill it. The Dodgers got by the Cardinals on Tuesday night in the Wild Card game, but it wasn't without drama and it wasn't without a few moments that could have changed the result had it not been for St. Louis' lack of killer instinct. LA aren't going to get those same chances against the Giants team who have shown consistently this year that they are not to be underestimated. Starting SF pitcher Logan Webb has been in scary form, with the men from Northern California winning in nine of their last ten games that Webb has started in.

BEST PROP: Buster Posey to record an RBI with BetRivers (+210)

With the total set at 7 for this game with some very good pitching, runs could be difficult to come by which makes the home run markets a little scary to touch. Buster Posey has been in good touch against the Dodgers this year, batting at a .294 avg with 9 RBIs from 15 games.
