Here is what the data is telling us for today's MLB games ⏬

Royals @ Yankees

BET: Kansas City Royals at the run line with PointsBet (-115)

📈 54.7% probability

The Kansas City Royals go into the third game of their midweek series against the Yanks knowing that they've got a chance after being competitive in the prior two games on Wednesday and Thursday. While both teams will be trotting out some pretty ordinary pitching, Kansas City do appear to have the slightest of edges coming up against Jameson Taillon who has a 1-4 W/L record as a starter this season. The KC run line looks like a good play.

We strongly recommend you put this bet down with PointsBet, who give new customers $100 in FREE bets when they open an account and deposit just $50. Joining only takes a minute and once you've done so, you'll have $150 in your new account. How good is that!!

Pirates @ Cardinals

BET: Total runs OVER 9 with PointsBet (-110)

📈 3.7% edge on the sportsbooks' odds

The forecast looks good for runs, runs. runs when the Pittsburgh Pirates and Cards link up tonight. Starting Pittsburgh pitcher, Chad Kuhl, has a ridiculous 7-1 Over/Under record in games appeared in this season, while his counterpart in Cards pitcher, Carlos Martinez, has an obscene 6.62 ERA from 68 innings pitched. This looks like our bet of the day.

Cubs @ Dodgers

BET: Chicago Cubs at the run line with PointsBet (+100)

📈 4.5% edge on the sportsbooks' odds

The form of the Chicago Cubs has been up and down as of late, but with the Dodgers expending a lot of energy trying to pummel their arch rivals, the Padres, over the last few days, they might be due a let down, just like the last time they went to war with San Diego in May. Our data projections has identified a big edge on the Cubbies keeping things close.
