Sports Betting 101: How to use Dimers Quick Picks
Today's MLB best bets and odds are proudly brought to you by PointsBet Sportsbook.
Reds vs. Mets
BET: Reds at the run line with PointsBet (-122)
📈 55% probability
It's been an entertaining weekend series so far at Citi Field in New York between the Mets and Reds, and our data projections thinks Cincinnati has what it takes to overturn their narrow 5-4 loss last night.
Starting on the mound for the Reds will be Vladimir Gutierrez. While his ERA stats aren't great (4.75), his W/L record as a starter is (5-3). On the vast expanses of Citi Field, it may be harder for the sluggers to get a hold of Gutierrez. Look for the Reds to keep this one tight if they can't sneak in for the outright victory.

Brewers vs. Braves
BET: Braves at the run line with PointsBet (+140)
📈 2.4% edge on the sportsbooks' odds
While this has been another interesting series that has been split so far this weekend, the Braves have a heavily favored pitching match up with Charlie Morton sporting a 10-3 starting record this year. Morton has been throwing some genuine heat, averaging seven strikeouts per game over his last nine games played. Atlanta can pile on runs at will and on their home turf, the run line looks like a great spot here.

Astros vs. Giants
BET: Astros at the moneyline with PointsBet (+101)
📈 51.2% probability
Houston and SF played out one of the games of this season yesterday afternoon at Mission Bay. It was a historic day for home runs, with the equal most ever seen at Oracle Park for a single game as eight were clubbed into the stands. The Giants were able to run out 6-8 winners, but they didn't have it all their own way and we think the Astros are well and truly capable of winning their second game of the weekend after their series opening win on Friday night.
