⚾ MLB Picks, Predictions & Best Bets Today, 5/4

It’s hardly a smaller slate to start the week, which means plenty of opportunities to add to our MLB expert picks. Not only that, but we’ve got some studs on the mound to target. That includes one of the early games to make MLB predictions on, with the start of the Red Sox vs. Tigers series (Detroit was just on Sunday Night Baseball as well).

We highlight that one because not only do we have lefty ace Tarik Skubal toeing the rubber, but also the young stud of Payton Tolle for Boston. In other words, there will be plenty of MLB best bets today on strikeout props there. Similarly, we’re also going to see Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the bump for the Los Angeles Dodgers taking on the Houston Astros.

That’s certainly not looking like a World Series rematch right now, but there is still so much season left to go. As for this Monday slate, let’s fully dive into our MLB best bets today!
 

 

 

🔥 Mets vs. Rockies Best Bet: YRFI - Yes Run First Inning (-119 at Novig)

It’s not often that the Colorado Rockies have the first game of the slate, but that’s the case today, so let’s not waste any time. They’re sending Tomoyuki Sugano to the mound, which is already a benefit aside from the game being at Coors Field. That combo alone is enough for us to make this the first of our MLB best bets today.

Colorado just had a weekend series at home where all three matchups saw 1+ runs scored in the first inning. They scored five themselves, then allowed two, and then finished off with one in the finale. As for Sugano, in four of his last five starts, this has hit - twice by his hand and twice with his team helping him.

New York’s going with a “by-committee” type of day, and if it’s lefty David Peterson, Colorado’s swapping the lineup for better righties at the top of the lineup rather than Mickey Moniak. So, let’s start our MLB best bets today with Mets vs. Rockies YRFI (-119 at Novig).

🔥 Brewers vs. Cardinals Best Bet: Over 8 Runs (-127 at Novig)

If you like the YRFI plays, this is another matchup in which we like one. However, we’ll switch things up a bit for you and take the game total over as well. After all, we cashed one last night with Sunday Night Baseball, and even without that being the case, we like this approach to add to our MLB best bets today.

Hitting conditions are good in St. Louis tonight with out-blowing winds, as is the Cards bullpen - they’ve got the fifth-worst ERA at this point. Milwaukee’s is better in that regard, but starter Chad Patrick is a guy who can allow plenty of contact. His own team’s lineup has plenty of power as well, so we’ll take Brewers vs. Cardinals over 8 runs (-127 at Novig).
