Fun Facts for Smart MLB Baseball Bettors – Thursday, July 24th, 2025

Powered by ATS STATS | www.atsstats.com

It’s getaway day with value hiding in the shadows and traps trying to look like chalk. From bullpen blowups to bounce-back spots, let’s line up today’s MLB matchups like it’s batting practice.

---

🔹 🔥 Market Watch – High C.O.G.O Double Dip
Two matchups are piping hot in the total department:

• Padres vs. Cardinals – Total: 7.98 | C.O.G.O: 77%
• Blue Jays vs. Tigers – Total: 8.83 | C.O.G.O: 53%

💡 Investor Angle: St. Louis and San Diego are both on mini skids, but that 77% C.O.G.O means the Over machine is primed. Toronto and Detroit could trade blows with Lauer and Olson on the bump.

---

🔹 📉 DETROIT TRAP WATCH – STREAKS DON’T LIE

• Tigers have dropped 9 of 10, yet they’re -131 favorites at home.
• Eric Lauer gets the nod for Toronto, after Chris Bassitt pitched in yesterday’s 8-4 win over the Yankees.
• Tigers counter with Reese Olson, who’s part of a Detroit team that has gone ice cold.

💡 Contrarian Take: When a 1-9 team is laying chalk vs. a team that just popped 8 runs, it’s time to raise the yellow flags.

---

🔹 🟩 Bullish Bounce – Guardians Keep Climbing

• Cleveland has now won 4 straight
• 8-2 SU last 10
• Logan Allen takes the mound after Zach Eflin held the O’s to 2 runs yesterday.

💡 Investor Angle: The Guardians’ SOS last 7 games (28.57%) is soft, but when you’re cashing tickets, nobody cares who you beat.

---

🔹 💣 UNDERDOG VALUE – A’s at Astros

• A’s enter BEARISH but battle-tested: SOS L7G: 83.67%
• Oakland has dropped 4 straight but kept games competitive.
• Luis Severino starts for the Astros, who trot out Jason Alexander yesterday in a win.

💡 Sneaky Play: A’s bats could finally crack through — especially with value on the board at +105 or better.

---

🔹 ⚠️ SELL SIGNAL – Angels Laying Too Much?

• Angels have lost 3 in a row and are still -156 vs. Seattle
• Yusei Kikuchi gets the ball after a loss yesterday to the Mets
• M’s counter with Logan Evans, riding a 6-4 SU streak

💡 Market Pulse: This line screams reputation over reality. Angels have cashed just 4 of their last 10.

---

🔹 ⚾ Early Bird Watch – Orioles vs. Guardians (1:10 PM ET)

• Orioles have lost 3 straight, face a red-hot Guardians club
• Morton vs. Allen is a savvy vet vs. rising lefty matchup
• Total set at 9.38 with both teams posting 45% C.O.G.O

💡 Investor Angle: Cleveland’s quiet surge is sneaky. Might not be flashy, but cash is still green.

---

🎯 Final Word:
The Thursday getaway slate is stacked with overpriced favorites and live dogs. Stay sharp, know the pitching matchups (💥 thanks Bassitt), and ride the C.O.G.O trends where they make sense — not just where they shine.
