MLB Divisional Series: Spotlight on Rangers vs. Orioles & Astros vs. Twins | BrownBagBets Predictions
The MLB Divisional Series is upon us, and it's brimming with intriguing narratives. From the Orioles making a playoff comeback after years to the Twins breaking their playoff jinx, there's no shortage of excitement. Today, four thrilling games are set to unfold, and we at BrownBagBets have zeroed in on two matchups that present promising betting opportunities.
Rangers vs. Orioles - Over 8 Runs: 5% Bankroll Wager
The Texas Rangers face off against the Baltimore Orioles at 1 pm on FS1, and we're predicting a high-scoring affair with an over of 8 runs. Why? Camden Yards is set to host its first playoff game in years, and the atmosphere will be electric. This hitter-friendly ballpark combined with the Rangers' #3 starter, Heaney, and his ERA over 4, suggests runs will be aplenty. With sharp money backing this over, we recommend a 5% bankroll wager.
Astros vs. Twins - Astros ML: 5% Bankroll Wager
Switching gears to the 4:45 pm ET game on FS1, the Houston Astros host the Minnesota Twins. Our pick? The Astros on the Money Line. The reason? Justin Verlander. His playoff pedigree is unmatched with an impressive 3.6 ERA over 207 playoff innings. The Twins, on the other hand, are sending Joe Ryan to the mound, a decision that might haunt them given his 5.22 ERA in road starts and the Twins' subpar road record this year. We're confident in the Astros and recommend a 5% bankroll wager.
