Saints open as road favorites against the Panthers in Carolina

Saints open as road favorites against the Panthers in Carolina at Tipico Sportsbook:

We’re on to the next. The New Orleans Saints (1-1) are looking to tread water in the NFC South after falling short against a divisional opponent last week, but they’ll be facing a similar challenge this week against another division-rival team. Fortunately for them, the Carolina Panthers (0-2) have fallen on hard times, and this could be a get-right game for New Orleans.

With that said, we shouldn’t undersell the difficulty involved here. The Saints are favored by 2.5 points in this road game at Tipico Sportsbook, which features one of the lowest point totals of the week at 40.5. That suggests a final score of about Saints 22, Panthers 19 in Carolina.

New Orleans lost in this same venue to this same opponent last year by a gnarly margin of 26-7. It’s worth noting that the Saints were without a third of their offensive coaching staff due to COVID protocols, but Jameis Winston’s second start still didn’t exactly impress anyone. He’ll be looking to bounce back again after throwing three interceptions a week ago.

As for other matchups around the NFC South: the Atlanta Falcons (0-2) have a good shot at upsetting the Seattle Seahawks on the road, with Seattle favored at home by less than a field goal. Odds for this week’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-0) game are not available (they’ll be hosting the Green Bay Packers) just yet, likely because the Bucs have a lot of uncertainty at wide receiver. Stay tuned on that front.

The Toronto Blue Jays (83-64) and Philadelphia Phillies (80-66) open a 2-game set Tuesday at Citizens Bank Park. First pitch is scheduled for 6:45 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Blue Jays vs. Phillies odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Season series: Blue Jays lead 2-0

The Blue Jays fell short of a 3-game sweep over the Baltimore Orioles with a 5-4 loss Sunday at Rogers Centre. Toronto closer RHP Jordan Romano allowed a 2-run single from Orioles C Adley Rutschman in the 9th inning to give Baltimore its first lead of the game. Blue Jays 3B Matt Chapman lined into Baltimore’s 15th triple play in team history in the 3rd inning.

Toronto All-Star C Alejandro Kirk (left hip) is expected to return Tuesday after sitting for the last 5 games.

The Blue Jays hold the top spot in the AL wild-card standings.

The Phillies were swept by the Atlanta Braves in a 3-game series after dropping a 5-2 decision Sunday at Truist Park. Philadelphia went hitless against Atlanta RHP Spencer Strider in the first 5 innings, and Braves C William Contreras hit a tiebreaking HR in the 6th.

The Phillies have lost 4 straight games after winning 5 in a row.

Philadelphia is 2.5 spots ahead of the Milwaukee Brewers for the NL’s final wild-card spot.

Blue Jays at Phillies picks and predictions

Prediction

Blue Jays 6, Phillies 3

Money line

BET BLUE JAYS (-125) ML.

Stripling has been reliable for Toronto lately and hasn’t allowed over 3 ER since May 7 at the Cleveland Guardians. Toronto’s offense should stay hot vs. a slumping Phillies team.

Run line/Against the spread

BET BLUE JAYS -1.5 (+125).

The Blue Jays’ last 4 wins have all been by 3 or more runs. Toronto should be able to win by multiple runs considering how consistent Stripling has been since mid-May.

Over/Under

PASS.

The Over is 3-0-1 in Toronto’s last 4 games, but it’s unlikely that Stripling will allow more than 3 ER. There are too many conflicting trends in this matchup to bet such a high number.

Giants at Rockies picks and predictions

Prediction

Rockies 7, Giants 4

Money line

The Giants are 4-3 at Coors Field this season but 31-41 on the road overall.  San Francisco has won its last 3 road games.

The Rockies, despite being in last place in the NL West, are 40-35 at home and have won 4 of their last 6 games there.

Freeland is pitching quite well in September and has allowed only 2 runs across those 3 starts, while the Giants will rely on their bullpen, which has a 4.20 ERA this season.

Take the ROCKIES (+122).

Run line/Against the spread

The Rockies’ 81-66 ATS record is the 5th-best in all of baseball and their 43-32 ATS record at home is 3rd-best in the majors.

The Giants are 68-79 ATS overall but 37-35 ATS on the road. They are 5-8 ATS this season against the Rockies.

Take the ROCKIES +1.5 (-125).

Over/Under

Eight of the Rockies’ last 9 home games have had 10 or more runs.

Seven of the 13 games between the two teams have had 10 or more runs.

Freeland’s last 3 home starts have had 10 or more runs.

St. Louis Cardinals at San Diego Padres odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s St. Louis Cardinals at San Diego Padres odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The St. Louis Cardinals (87-61) start a 3-game series against the San Diego Padres (81-66) Tuesday at Petco Park at 9:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Cardinals vs. Padres odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Season series: Cardinals lead 3-0

The Cardinals have had a good September thus far, winning 11 of the 17 games, including 3 of their last 4. If the playoffs began today, St. Louis would be the No. 3 seed in the NL as they’re 8 1/2 games ahead of the Milwaukee Brewers in the NL Central.

After a shaky start to the month, the Padres have reeled off 3 wins in a row. With the season nearing a close, San Diego is fending off the Philadelphia Phillies and the Brewers for the No. 2 wild-card spot in the NL.

RHP Adam Wainwright vs. RHP Mike Clevinger

Wainwright (11-9, 3.29 ERA) makes his 30th start. He has a 1.24 WHIP, 2.4 BB/9 and 6.9 K/9 in 178 IP.

  • Has allowed multiple ER in 4 of his last 5 starts
  • May 31 vs. Padres: 7 IP, 0 R, 2 H, 1 BB, 10 K

Cardinals at Padres picks and predictions

Prediction

Cardinals 6, Padres 3

Money line

Take the CARDINALS (-108) to secure a win on the road against the Padres. St. Louis hasn’t lost to San Diego this season and they’ve won 6 consecutive meetings with the Padres.

Run line/Against the spread

CARDINALS -1.5 (+155) is an enticing wager at plus odds as I believe St. Louis is the better team in this contest. Clevinger has struggled in recent starts for the Padres, giving me confidence the Cardinals can win this game by multiple runs.

For those that aren’t comfortable taking the Cardinals to win by 2-plus runs, you can get CARDINALS -0.5 FIRST 5 INNINGS (+120) at plus odds as well.

Over/Under

OVER 7.5 RUNS (-120) is the play here with both pitchers in this game giving up multiple runs in recent starts. When the Cardinals and Padres are at their best, they are both capable of scoring 7 or 8 runs by themselves.

The Over has hit in 5 straight home games for the Padres. Also, the Over is 6-1-1 in the last 8 meetings between the Cardinals and the Padres in San Diego.

Houston Astros at Tampa Bay Rays odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Houston Astros at Tampa Bay Rays odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The Houston Astros (97-51) and Tampa Bay Rays (82-65) meet Tuesday at 6:40 p.m. ET to continue a 3-game set at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Fla. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Astros vs. Rays odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Season series: Houston leads 1-0

The Astros shut out Tampa 4-0 Monday and are now 8-1 over their last 9 games. Houston’s pitching of late has been terrific. Since Aug. 21, the Astros are 20-6 with a 2.23 ERA and 0.96 WHIP. Houston is 9-1 over its last 10 games away from Minute Maid Park.

The Rays had been 16-3 over their previous 19 home games, but they were shut out Monday for the first time since July 28. Tampa Bay is 4-7 and batting just .241/.301/.352 (.654 OPS) over its last 11 games.

Astros at Rays projected starters

RHP Cristian Javier vs. LHP Shane McClanahan

  • Owns a 1.79 ERA over his last 7 starts
  • Coming off 6 scoreless innings Wednesday at the Detroit Tigers; has allowed 1 ER or less in 5 of his last 6 starts

McClanahan (12-5, 2.13 ERA) owns a 0.86 WHIP, 1.8 BB/9 and 11.0 K/9 through 152 1/3 IP across 25 starts.

Astros at Rays picks and predictions

Prediction

Astros 4, Rays 3

Money line

There is some risk because of the fine pitching match-up, but HOUSTON (+110) is a workable play.

This boils down to the dependability of the Astros lineup, which has cranked out an .883 OPS over its last 11 games. McClanahan’s start is his second off a layoff, and that could bring on middle-inning fatigue. The Tampa port-sider missed the first couple weeks of September with a shoulder impingement.

Run line/Against the spread

With respect for McClanahan, bigger bankroll players may want to consider a line watch here instead of the outright ML play.

Houston +1.5 priced at either -195 or even -200 makes for solid leverage.

Over/Under

With the slightest 4-way (both starters, both bullpens) fade in this game’s pitching, and with due respect for the Houston offense — one at its best against left-handers (.772 OPS) — back the OVER 6.5 (-108).

Carrasco (15-6, 3.70 ERA) has a 1.29 WHIP, 2.4 BB/9 and 9.1 K/9 through 141 IP in 26 starts.

Mets at Brewers picks and predictions

Prediction

Brewers 5, Mets 3

Money line

Milwaukee has played well at home. A bullpen game provides some hidden leverage for bettors, because the Brewers relief corps figures as one undervalued by its surface numbers. It’s a pen that does well to get a decent number of ground balls, yet its been tagged by a relatively high number of home runs on fly balls.

Carrasco is coming off a 105-pitch outing and his making his 2nd start off a stay on the IL. The veteran righty has gone past 95 pitches 4 times this season. The next-time-outs have resulted in a 6.52 ERA.

New York is coming off a game that saw it clinch a playoff berth for the 1st time since 2016. White the Mets still have a division flag to fight for, they may be in all-ahead-two-thirds mode in this one.

BACK THE BREWERS (-105).

Run line/Against the spread

AVOID. Milwaukee is the lean in principle, but the juice wipes out any value potential.

Over/Under

Can’t parse any expected-vs.-actual results value here: PASS.

The Vikings were terrible on a Monday Night Football in Philadelphia as they fell 24-7. The Vikes mustered just 62 rushing yards while going a dismal 1-of-4 on red-zone efficiency and 1-for-3 in goal-to-go efficiency.
