Washington Nationals vs New York Mets Betting Insights
The first thing I do when analyzing a slate is look for good pitchers that are getting plus-money and there are a few Tuesday. One of the better values I see is Nationals LHP MacKenzie Gore against Mets RHP Griffin Canning.
Gore has established himself as an upper-tier ace this season and could end up being similar to Tarik Skubal. The Nationals have been a profitable team to bet on despite their record, similar to last season. I usually shy away from Nationals full-game plays, but Gore can go deep into this game.
I also have been shying away from multiple bets on the same game, but this one graded out high enough to warrant it. Grabbing the ML at +130 helps me go a little extra on the total at 8.0 -124 to even things out.
MLB Best Bets: Nationals ML for 1 unit (Bet365 +130); Nationals/Mets UNDER 8.0 for 1 unit (DraftKings -124)

Houston Astros vs Chicago White Sox Best Bets and Predictions
People look at the White Sox record and automatically assume that they do not have any decent starting pitching. Well, for the most part they are right, but RHP Shane Smith has a 2.45 ERA and 1.14 WHIP. RHP Lance McCullers Jr. is starting to round into form pre-injury and has had five out of six starts with a game score of 50 or higher.
The Astros have averaged just 3.1 runs per game over their last 10 and the White Sox are at 3.7 runs per game in their last 10.
The line is 7.5 at most books, but you can find 8 with some juice. I have this one projected at 4-3 in favor of the Astros.
MLB Best Bets: Astros/White Sox UNDER 8.0 runs for 1 unit (BetRivers -120)
Texas Rangers vs Minnesota Twins Best Bets and Predictions
There is a LOT of value on road 'dogs on this slate, and I am going to sprinkle something on a 4-teamer Round Robin-style involving the Rangers/Reds/Rays/Mariners, as there is a significant difference in starting pitching.
Tyler Mahle (Rangers) at Simeon Woods Richardson (Twins)
Bryan Woo (Mariners) at Brandon Pfaadt (Dbacks)
Ryan Pepiot (Rays) at Lucas Giolito (Red Sox)
Andrew Abbott (Reds) at Slade Cecconi (Guardians)
MLB Best Bets: Rangers / Reds / Rays / Mariners 4 TEAM Parlay for 0.25 unit to win 3.95 (DraftKings)
