It’s a busy week in the world of sports with the arrival of the NFL and another big slate of college football action. Major League Baseball has center stage for the most part on Tuesday, while the U.S. Open quarterfinals are also making headlines. Let’s take a look at where the public money has gone so far on Tuesday.
MLB: San Francisco Giants -1.5 over Colorado Rockies
Bettors’ favorite MLB play of the day is on the Giants to win by multiple runs against the Rockies. San Francisco on the -1.5 run line is inspiring a bloated 98 percent of the handle and 89 percent of the bets. On the money line, the Giants are sizable -220 favorites. The public certainly isn’t scared away by that juice, though. A total of 88 percent of the money and also 88 percent of the bets are supporting San Francisco to win straight up.
And why not? The Giants have won 13 of Logan Webb’s last 14 starts and they are winning those games by an average of more than 3 runs. San Francisco -1.5 is one of our best MLB bets of the day.

NFL: Green Bay Packers -4 over New Orleans Saints

Green Bay still has its veteran star QB (Aaron Rodgers), while New Orleans does not (Drew Brees retired).
