MLB pick today: St. Louis Cardinals vs Pittsburgh Pirates – Over 8.5 runs (-110), 11:35 am ET
Scoring should be expected in this morning’s game and a lot of that has to do with the starting pitching matchup. Rich Hill will take the mound for the Pirates, while the Cardinals will counter with Miles Mikolas. In short, what we have here are two starting pitchers who ought to give up a lot of hard contact, which is likely to translate into a lot of early runs. For that reason, backing the over will be our play this morning.

MLB pick today: Detroit Tigers vs Chicago White Sox – Under 8.5 runs (-110), 2:10 pm ET
There has been little offense for both teams in this series, and pitching has dominated. Michael Kopech will start for the White Sox, and he’s 3-5 with a 4.52 ERA. Before getting hit around by the Angels in his last start, he had back-to-back starts going 7+ innings without allowing a run. Matthew Boyd will start for the visiting Tigers and he is 3-4 with a 5.96 ERA. Boyd gave up 5 runs in his latest start but only 1 in his start before that.
Given the fact that neither offense has been a threat in this series and both pitchers have found some success recently, backing the under will be our play.

MLB pick today: Houston Astros ML over Los Angeles Angels (-148), 2:10 pm ET
The Angels have been roughed up in Houston this weekend, as the Astros have won the first 3 games of this American League West Division series, outscoring the Halos by a 20-10 margin. The Astros are 18-5 in their last 23 games dating back to May 9, and the hot streak started when they visited the Angels in Anaheim from May 8-10.
In addition, the Astros have been stacking wins, going 11-3 in their last 14 games following a win, while cashing in 11 of their last 16 games against a right-handed starting pitcher. Given their great form, backing the Astros to win and complete the sweep will be our play.

NBA pick today: Miami Heat +8.5 over Denver Nuggets (-110), 8:00 pm ET
The Miami Heat will look to even up the series as they face the Denver Nuggets in Game 2 of the NBA Finals tonight. While the Heat were outclassed in Game 1, they showed some fight as the Nuggets were up by as much as 24 before ultimately losing by 11 points.
A bounce-back performance should be expected as Miami has made adjustments after poor performances all through the postseason. For that reason, backing the Heat to make Game 2 much more competitive will be our play tonight.
