ProfessorSides Published 1 week ago

3:07pm ET: Phillies at Blue Jays: Blue Jays (+113)
6:40pm ET: Astros at Reds: Astros (-140)
6:50pm ET: Twins at Rays: Twins (-107)
7:10pm ET: Red Sox at Mets: Red Sox (-101)
7:40pm ET: Cardinals at Brewers: Brewers (+110)
7:40pm ET: Guardians at Royals: Over 8.5 (-110)
8:05pm ET: Yankees at Rangers: Over 8.5 (-115)

NOTES:
Phillies at Blue Jays – Francis has been so good, home team, plus odds… coin toss situation

White Sox at Orioles – Again I say, the White Sox are such an outlier they break models

Nationals at Marlins – Neither B grade is crazy if you like it, neither is good enough value for me to play

Astros at Reds – Love our boy Spaghetti

Twins at Rays – Twins offense and bullpen are good enough they should be favored by more

Red Sox at Mets – I’m just not buying that Megill is anywhere near the level of Houck

Rockies at Braves – Under (FG or F5) or pass

Pirates at Cubs – Hard pass here

Cardinals at Brewers – If you missed out on the Brewers at plus odds… I don’t know, hard to really say anything other than just let it go

Guardians at Royals – This should be 9, so o8.5 is solid

Yankees at Rangers – Same

Dodgers at Angels – A total of 10! And justified! Dodgers a reasonable parlay leg but I have nothing to pair them with

Mariners at Athletics – If the Mariners couldn’t get that one last night…

Tigers at Padres – I don’t trust Darvish coming back here, so Tigers F5 RL isn’t crazy

Diamondbacks at Giants – I don’t trust Gallen (as much this year period or) on the road

Wed 9/4 MLB Update

ProfessorSides Published 1 week ago

3:07pm ET: Phillies at Blue Jays: Blue Jays (+113)
6:40pm ET: Astros at Reds: Astros (-140)
6:50pm ET: Twins at Rays: Twins (-107)
7:10pm ET: Red Sox at Mets: Red Sox (-101)
7:40pm ET: Cardinals at Brewers: Brewers (+110)
7:40pm ET: Guardians at Royals: Over 8.5 (-110)
8:05pm ET: Yankees at Rangers: Over 8.5 (-115)

NOTES:
Phillies at Blue Jays – Francis has been so good, home team, plus odds… coin toss situation

White Sox at Orioles – Again I say, the White Sox are such an outlier they break models

Nationals at Marlins – Neither B grade is crazy if you like it, neither is good enough value for me to play

Astros at Reds – Love our boy Spaghetti

Twins at Rays – Twins offense and bullpen are good enough they should be favored by more

Red Sox at Mets – I’m just not buying that Megill is anywhere near the level of Houck

Rockies at Braves – Under (FG or F5) or pass

Pirates at Cubs – Hard pass here

Cardinals at Brewers – If you missed out on the Brewers at plus odds… I don’t know, hard to really say anything other than just let it go

Guardians at Royals – This should be 9, so o8.5 is solid

Yankees at Rangers – Same

Dodgers at Angels – A total of 10! And justified! Dodgers a reasonable parlay leg but I have nothing to pair them with

Mariners at Athletics – If the Mariners couldn’t get that one last night…

Tigers at Padres – I don’t trust Darvish coming back here, so Tigers F5 RL isn’t crazy

Diamondbacks at Giants – I don’t trust Gallen (as much this year period or) on the road

About me

I’m a PhD statistician who has built mathematical models to predict MLB, NFL, CFB, CBB and NHL. The models provided totals, team totals, and thresholds for ML picks to be +EV and top plays, the latter deriving from my expertise of probability. I believe our picks have an edge because most people don’t understand probability very well!
