Free MLB Picks for Friday July 8, 2022

Rays vs. Reds, 6:40PM ET

Cincinnati will be up against it tonight coming up against one of the best defensive units in the MLB, as well as one of the best pitchers in Shane McClanahan (9-3, 1.74 ERA). While Luis Castillo (3-4, 3.09 ERA) will be on the mound for the Reds, it's been their bullpen which have been costing them badly in games over the past two weeks, with a reliever ERA of 8.17 over their last 10 outings leading to a 3-7 record over that span. The beauty of Tampa Bay is their ability to restrict their opponents and score runs, with an average of close to 5 runs per game over their last 10. The Rays will be expecting a comfortable win here once they blow by Castillo.

Twins vs. Rangers, 8:05PM ET

Minnesota have consolidated their position atop of the AL Central standings and will like their chances to keep the throat on those below with a weekend series against an out-of-form Rangers lineup that have lost 6 of their last 7 games. The Twins are going with Sonny Gray (4-1, 2.47 ERA) on the mound and shouldn't be challenged.

Tigers vs. White Sox, 8:10PM ET

The Tigers took last night's series opener but they'll find things a little tougher tonight with the underperforming Tarik Skubal heading to the mound. Skubal has been out of sorts over his last 5 starts, giving up 3 runs or more in each of those trips to the bump. This will be the perfect chance for the White Sox to even up honors. 

BET: White Sox -1.5 (+128)
