BET: San Francisco Giants at the run line with PointsBet (+120)
📈 3.7% edge on the sportsbooks' odds
The Giants celebrated 4th of July with a dominant win over the Diamondbacks and head back to San Francisco on a mini-roll. Heading to the mound for the Giants today against the Cardinals is Kevin Gausman. The SP has been in hot form so far this season with an 8-2 starting record and an ERA of 1.68. We're expecting San Francisco to pull away and cover the run line.

Red Sox @ Angels
BET: Total runs UNDER 10.5 with PointsBet (-115)
📈 57.5% probability
The Red Sox continue their west coast trip with a stop in Anaheim against the Angels for a midweek series, and despite LA's weak run defense, there are signs today that point to the Under. Starting Halos pitcher, Jose Suarez, has been the pick of the bunch so far this season in SoCal, with an ERA of 1.98. For Boston, Martin Perez will be taking the mound and he'll be full of confidence having held the Angels scoreless in an earlier game against them in May.
