Hello and welcome back to another edition of Blaise's Best Bets! We have a full slate of playoff games, plus a all-important Game 6 in the NBA playoffs. Here's the bets I'm rolling with tonight with help and research from the Pine's signature AI.
LAA v CWS: Mike Trout Total Bases: Over -110 (Line: 1.5)
Talk about a steal! Mike Trout has been on a tear for the Los Angeles Angels and is looking in MVP fear. He is averaging 2.63 total bases per game, well above the 1.5 number. Not to mention, he is averaging 3.1 over his past ten. It should be noted that Trout and the Angels are facing a tough matchup in Lucas Giolito. However, Giolito has yet to go more than 4 innings in a single start and the White Sox bullpen has an ERA over 6. Here's the Total bases per game leaders in the MLB:
MEM v MIN: Brandon Clarke Rebounds: Under +100 (Line: 8.5)
Now this might be a stretch but this is personally my favorite underdog pick of the night. Clarke's high line has been buoyed by two double digit rebound performances against the Timberwolves. In his past ten games, those are the only two that crossed the 8.5 thresh hold. Even with those performances, Pine's AI only gives the over a 24% chance of hitting and a projection of nearly 7 rebounds tonight. I'm not one to doubt the science so give me the uneven gettinder.
STL v ARI: Paul Goldschmidt Hits: Over +205 (Line: 1.5)
Two underdog picks in the same article?? Insanity, I know. However, Paul Goldschmidt has been heating up after a slow start to the season. He has multi hit games in seven of his last ten games, which includes two of three games against the New York Mets. Goldy has also been very successful against his former team, collecting seven hits in his past four against the D-Backs. A Diamondbacks team that is middle of the pack pitching wise. I'm booking this one, albeit with some caution.
