Free MLB Picks For Friday October 29, 2021

Astros vs. Braves

BEST BET: Total runs OVER 8.5 with BetMGM (-105)

Runs have been a feature of the first two games in Houston and that looks like continuing as the series swings to the A. We've spoken about the Astros and their hitting power throughout the course of the season. They'll score runs like they usually do, but Atlanta are also gifted a golden opportunity to feast with Luis Garcia taking to the mound for the 'Stros. Garcia has been leaky as of late with a 9.64 ERA over his last three starts. In two of those games he gave up five runs each in 2.2 and 1.0 innings respectively. This looks set to be a free flowing game.

BEST PROP: Austin Riley to hit a home run with BetMGM (+310)

The Braves slugger is in some ominous form in the midst of a three-game hitting streak and is seeing the ball well with 2 RBIs during that stretch. He is a consistent threat to homer and against Garcia on his home turf, this looks like a great time for Riley to go yard.
