Red Sox vs. Blue Jays
BET: Red Sox at the moneyline with PointsBet (+116)
📈 2.1% edge on the sportsbooks' odds
Boston are coming off back-to-back poundings against the Yankees over the last two nights, but our data projections like them bouncing back as their midweek series against the Blue Jays starts. Nick Pivetta will be taking to the mound for the Red Sox, who has a 7-4 starting record as pitcher this season. For one of the best teams record-wise in the league, the plus money on offer here is crazy.

Padres vs. Braves
BET: Padres at the moneyline with PointsBet (-135)
📈 51% probability
It takes a brave man or woman to bet against the Padres when Yu Darvish takes the mound, and we are not that brave. The San Diego pitcher has been his ever reliable best this season with a team win/loss record of 14-4 when he starts. Atlanta's form has continued to be patchy and we just can't see them getting the job done against one of the league's most well-drilled teams.

Indians vs. Astros
BET: Total runs OVER 8.5 with PointsBet (-118)
📈 54.2% probability
Two of our favorite offensive juggernauts meet up this week and you better believe we're smashing the Overs as many times as humanly possible.
Houston are 53-39-2 on the Over/Under this season while Cleveland aren't too far behind on 48-38-4. With the Astros owning the best ranked run offense in the league for runs scored per nine innings, they're in for a treat tonight when they face starting Indians pitcher, Jean Carlos Mejia, who has an ERA of 7.42 from 30 innings pitched across the season. This is our bet of the day.
