Sports handicapper Ron Raymond has released his top MLB picks for today’s games, utilizing his specialized Raymond Report tipsheet. Ron’s strategic approach focuses on historical trends and current streaks, providing a well-rounded insight into today’s matchups. Here’s a detailed breakdown of his selections:

1. Detroit PK -168

Ron advises playing on Detroit as they match up as the home favorite. Historical data shows that home favorites are 29-18 SU this season against opponents with a 21% to 30% winning percentage. Moreover, home teams like Detroit, coming off a loss as a favorite, have a strong bounce-back record of 96-58 SU in their next game. This supports a solid play on Detroit today.

2. St. Louis PK -117

The St. Louis Cardinals, led by pitcher Lance Lynn, face the Angels while on a 3-game winning streak. The Cardinals have a strong track record on the road against teams with losing records, winning 60% of these matchups. This winning momentum and statistical backing make a compelling case to play St. Louis.

3. Seattle UNDER 7.5

The under total is favored in Seattle’s game at T-Mobile Park, especially significant against teams with a 50% to 59.9% winning percentage, where the record stands at 2-7-0 this season. Additionally, MLB home teams coming off a 5-game home stand have tended to stay under the total in their next game, with a record of 15-27-1. These factors suggest a strong play on the under.

4. Tampa Bay/Boston UNDER 8.0

For the matchup between Tampa Bay and Boston, the under is a strong play, particularly given the Red Sox’s recent trend of unders at Fenway Park. They are 1-9-0 in their last 10 games overall and 0-5-0 against teams with losing records this season. Moreover, in the third game of a series at Fenway, the under record is 1-4-1 this year, enhancing confidence in this pick.

5. Oakland/Houston UNDER 8.5

The under has been a consistent outcome in games at Minute Maid Park, recording an 8-11-2 this season for the Astros. Additionally, road teams like Oakland, who are on a 3-game losing streak, have seen the under go 10-24-2 this season. These trends suggest a continuation of low-scoring affairs, supporting a play on the under.
