Cash Out Sports Picks leaned Boston because Brayan Bello’s 3.07 ERA and polish give the Red Sox the steadier arm, while their lineup—headlined by Rafael Devers and Tristan Casas—has shown recent power. Arizona’s Ryan Nelson is comfortable at Chase Field but works with a thinner order; Christian Walker and Corbin Carroll carry most of the load. With Boston searching for late-season momentum and owning the pitching and depth edge, the tout took the Red Sox moneyline.

Cash Out Sports Picks played Oakland moneyline after the A’s outscored the Angels by double digits in the first two games and averaged nearly seven runs across their last five. Luis Severino has been particularly reliable on the road, while Los Angeles hands the ball to a rookie making just his second big-league start, backed by a bullpen surrendering six-plus runs per game over the last week. The tout sees the veteran-rookie mismatch and Oakland’s carefree late-season form as enough to complete the sweep.

Cash Out Sports Picks sided with San Diego behind Dylan Cease, who owns a 4.64 ERA but a stingy .222 opponents’ average over his last nine and has guided the Padres to wins in six of his last eight starts versus losing clubs. Rookie Tanner Gordon and a shaky Colorado bullpen have dropped three of the right-hander’s last four, and the Rockies offense has totaled just 10 runs in its past four games. With Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado heating up during the Wild Card push, the tout preferred the Padres moneyline.

Cash Out Sports Picks backed Houston because Framber Valdez (12-8, 3.40 ERA, 27 starts) continues to give length and limit damage, something the Astros bullpen welcomes after heavy work earlier in the set. Texas counters with Patrick Corbin (7-9, 4.48 ERA) who was tagged for five earned in his last appearance and has struggled against patient, powerful lineups—exactly what Houston showed in Saturday’s 11-0 blowout. With momentum and the veteran pitching edge, the tout made the Astros the clear moneyline choice.

Cash Out Sports Picks said the Chicago Cubs moneyline was the best side because Washington has scored only 3.3 runs per game over its last ten and sends Andrew Alvarez out for just his second career start after blanking a weak Marlins lineup. Chicago, meanwhile, is averaging five runs per game during that same span, owns the deeper order, and will open with Drew Pomeranz in a planned bullpen game that lets them mix and match and keep the light-hitting Nationals off balance. Added postseason urgency and home-field comfort at Wrigley gave the tout enough edges to fade Washington and ride Chicago.

JDBetsHQ locked in Shane Baz Over 5.5 Ks at ‑119. Baz has fanned 6 and 8 hitters in back-to-back starts while averaging 95 mph on the four-seamer and carrying a 32% whiff rate on his slider. Seattle strikes out 8.96 times per road game this season and still sits bottom-10 in contact percentage (73%). His spreadsheet shows the Mariners whiffing 9.3 times per game over their last ten. Historical splits versus righties push Tampa’s bullpen leverage in his favor, so he expects Baz to reach six punch-outs within five innings. He considered a Rays moneyline lean but made the strikeout prop his primary play.

JDBetsHQ grabbed Milwaukee at ‑144. He cited the classic fade of the Sunday-night-baseball road team: Philadelphia played the ESPN game, then flew to Milwaukee, while the Brewers stayed home. Milwaukee’s hitters light up Taijuan Walker on his matchup sheet—green across the board for William Contreras, Sal Frelick, and Jackson Chourio—whereas Walker’s last four starts feature a 5.87 ERA, 1.7 HR/9 and only 5.1 innings per outing. Brewer starter Freddy Peralta (referred to as “Miz” on screen) carries a 30% K-rate and lines up well against a mid-pack Philly lineup that strikes out 8.6 times per game. With Milwaukee fourth in MLB team average over the past two weeks and playing in hitter-friendly American Family Field, he trusts the home side to control the game.

JDBetsHQ took San Francisco at ‑129 on the moneyline. He expects rookie call-up Kai-Wei Teng to rebound against a Colorado lineup sitting two losses shy of 100 and posting bottom-five numbers versus right-handed pitching. Teng was torched in San Diego (8 ER over two starts) but handled Washington respectably, and the Rockies’ road wRC+ is 27 points lower than either club. Opposing starter Ty Blach (referred to as Dahlner on sheet) owns a 5.31 xERA with limited swing-and-miss, so the Giants’ offense—top-10 hard-hit rate last two weeks—should carry the day. With both bullpens mediocre, he still trusts San Francisco’s lineup advantage and faded Colorado’s 20–50 road record.

JDBetsHQ leaned to the Cubs money line because Atlanta played on Sunday Night Baseball and had to fly to Chicago for a day game, a scheduling spot he regularly fades. He pointed out that Spencer Strider has allowed 4+ earned runs in three of his last five outings (Milwaukee, the Mets, and this very Cubs lineup) while Colin Rea had been steady until a rough outing against the Giants. With both offenses grading as merely average on his spreadsheet, he felt the travel disadvantage and Strider’s recent volatility tipped the edge to Chicago at home.

JDBetsHQ said he is backing the Blue Jays at +111 on the money line. After scrolling through the hitter match-ups he noted that every key bat on the other side is ice-cold – lines like 2-for-9, 1-for-6, and 3-for-10 kept popping up. Even Toronto’s own 1-for-3 pockets of success looked ‘amazing’ by comparison, and with no individual props he liked in the game he decided the best way to take advantage of the market was simply to grab Toronto at plus money.

JDBetsHQ took Toronto +111 on the money line, citing multiple matchup edges over Cincinnati. His spreadsheet shows the Jays grading green (above-average) across most offensive categories while the Reds "can’t swing the bat very well." On the mound it’s Chris Bassitt versus Hunter Greene. Bassitt has already blanked most of the Reds’ lineup—numerous 0-for strings like 0-for-7 and 0-for-3—whereas Greene has been touched up by Toronto bats: Bo Bichette is 3-for-6 with two homers, George Springer and Danny Jansen own souvenirs as well. Greene’s volatility (12 Ks one outing, three the next) combined with Toronto’s righty power led the tout to call the Blue Jays the clear value side despite opening as slight dogs at +111.

JDBetsHQ recommended playing Juan Soto over 1.5 on the HR prop because of an eye-popping batter-vs-pitcher history against Charlie Morton. Soto is 8-for-14 (.571) with three long balls and a 1.900 OPS lifetime off Morton, and the host noted the Mets still sit at or near the top of nearly every offensive category on his spreadsheet despite cooling off the last two games. He emphasized that even if the wider Mets lineup is wobbling, Soto’s individual matchup signal is too loud to ignore, especially with Morton giving up two homers in each of his last two outings. The play hinges entirely on Soto’s proven ability to barrel Morton’s heavy sinker/curve mix and the favorable 8.5 total in Detroit’s neutral weather conditions.

Millz Young took Luis Arraez over 0.5 hits and his total-bases prop. Arraez has notched a hit in three straight outings and is cashing the market at a 60 % clip. Because Arraez seldom homers—Young quipped he has only seen one live bomb all year—he is steering clear of the long-ball market and sticking with the contact-based props.

Millz Young recommended backing Jackson Holliday to record at least one hit and suggested sprinkling a small piece on a home-run ticket against San Diego. Holliday has produced a hit in 80 % of his recent starts and racked up multiple knocks in four straight games, a hot streak Young is eager to ride.

Millz Young said he is taking Spencer Strider’s strikeout prop over 6 for Monday’s start against Chicago. Young acknowledged Strider has hit exactly six punch-outs only once in his last few outings, but he expects the Braves to let him work into the sixth or seventh inning and "be that old Spencer Strider we need," giving him the volume necessary to clear the number.

Jovan Burts said he is backing Tampa Bay at -1.5 runs for a juicy +192 price against Seattle. He called the Rays the "wrong team favored," pointing to their 6-2 surge after sweeping Washington. Burts expects Luis Castillo to continue struggling away from T-Mobile Park—eight earned runs on 15 hits over his last two starts—and reminded listeners that Castillo has long been a fade candidate on the road. He trusts Tampa’s late-inning edge because Seattle’s bullpen "has been struggling as of late" while Shane Baz, despite a rough overall season, just limited opponents to three runs in his last outing. With the Mariners’ offense labeled "really inconsistent" and frequently stuck in one-run games, Burts predicted the M’s relief corps will crack late and give the Rays a multi-run victory, making the alternate run line worth the risk at nearly 2-to-1.

Kenny G labeled Atlanta at +130 his "dog of the day" behind 23-year-old phenom Hurston Waldrop. Waldrop is 4-0 with a microscopic 0.90 ERA, and the Braves are 5-0 in his last five starts. Kenny expects him to stay fearless even against a potent but streaky Philadelphia lineup. He concedes Atlanta’s bullpen has slipped to a 4.19 ERA and the offense has cooled (two, one and four runs the last three), yet he trusts Waldrop to shorten the game. On the other side, Jesus Luzardo sports a 4.23 ERA and is coming off an ugly four-inning, four-earned run effort. The Phillies pen is even worse (4.33 ERA), and their bats have been hot-and-cold (3-2-19-0-5-3 runs the last six). With Atlanta’s road struggles already baked into the price (27-42 away), Kenny believes the matchup volatility makes the plus money too tempting to pass.

Kenny G recommended laying the juice on the Dodgers at –220 because Yoshinobu Yamamoto gives them a clear pitching edge. Yamamoto is 11-8 with a 2.90 ERA and has finally been stretched out, posting a strong outing against San Diego after a solid start versus Colorado. He completely dominated Arizona in late May. Kenny acknowledged the Dodgers bullpen has struggled (4.68 ERA) and recent run production has been spotty (1-0-5-3-5-6-7 runs the last seven games), but he trusts Yamamoto to work deep enough to mute that weakness. Arizona’s relief corps is even worse (4.68 ERA) and their road record sits at 34-37. With L.A. 44-26 at home and still fighting to stay atop the NL West, Kenny sees the moneyline as the safest path rather than attacking the nine-run total.

Calling Oakland his ‘dog of the day,’ Kenny G argued the A’s are undervalued at +135. JT Ginn has a respectable track record versus Texas (five strong innings in May) and the Athletics have actually won each of his last two starts despite short outings. The Rangers are just 28-40 on the road and their recent surge is masking season-long offensive inconsistency plus lingering injuries (he referenced the recent appendicitis absence). Texas’ bullpen remains solid, but Kenny doubts they deserve heavy-road-favorite status against an opponent playing hard down the stretch. With deGrom still ramping back from arm fatigue and Oakland hungry to avoid a sweep, Kenny sees enough upside in the number to take the shot.

Kenny G took the Giants at –130 because their run-prevention unit is miles ahead of Baltimore’s. San Francisco owns a 3.32 bullpen ERA and Justin Verlander, despite a 2-10 record, has steadied lately and just handled the Cubs. The Giants had won six in a row before Saturday’s 11-1 loss and their offense has popped for 15, 12, 7 and 5 runs in the past week. Baltimore counters with Tomoyuki Sugano (4.06 ERA) and a 4.65 bullpen ERA; the Orioles are only 30-38 on the road and rank 18th in runs scored. Kenny thinks Verlander plus the superior pen justify the modest juice, and while park trends point to the under, he made the moneyline his preferred angle.

Kenny G said the Yankees are still a play at -200 because every key matchup metric tilts their way. Luis Gil has rounded into form after dominant outings against St. Louis, Boston and Washington, while Chicago counters with Martine Perez, who threw a season-high seven innings his last start and may be gassed. New York’s lineup just finished a 5-game stretch of 10-10-11-5-10 runs and now leads MLB in runs and slugging, whereas the White Sox have lost five straight, rank 26th in runs and 27th in average, and will be without Vargas (10-day IL). Even with the Yankees’ bullpen sitting at 4.25 ERA, Kenny trusts their bats to cover the late innings against a Chicago relief corps at 4.18 ERA. He expects New York’s winning streak to continue and is comfortable laying the price, though he admits it is not quite strong enough to be an “official” pinned pick.

Calling it his potential "lock of the day," Kenny G recommended laying the -175 with Detroit behind Tarik Skubal. The lefty is 11-4 with a 2.28 ERA and already blanked Kansas City over seven innings in May. His last start was messy on the scoreboard (6 runs vs Oakland) but only one was earned, and he still struck out 12 with zero walks. The Royals counter with Michael Wacha, who is on the paternity list and could be scratched; even if he starts, he carries a mediocre 3.39 ERA and was nicked for 8 hits and 3 ER by these same Tigers last week. Kansas City owns the 27th-ranked offense and is 0-5 vs Skubal lifetime. Detroit’s pen is merely average, but the matchup gap between starters is so large that Kenny is comfortable eating the juice.

Kenny G leaned to Mariners ‑120, expecting a bounce-back after dropping the first two in Cleveland. He acknowledged Bryce Miller’s ugly 5.98 ERA and 2-3 team record over his last five starts, but pointed out that the Guardians have the league’s worst offense by batting average and OBP and are 28th in runs. Cleveland starter Tanner Bibee owns a 4.73 ERA and has been rocked in four of his last five outings, plus the Cleveland bullpen, while strong overall (3.61 ERA), has begun to show cracks. Seattle’s offense still ranks 11th in runs and faces a right-hander they saw for five mediocre innings back in June. Motivation matters too: the M’s sit three games behind Houston in the AL West, whereas Cleveland is still an outside WC hopeful. All told, Kenny thinks the better line-up and equal or better pen makes Seattle the right side at a short price.

Kenny G said the plus-150 moneyline on Miami is "a little bit tempting" because Sandy Alcantara’s form is trending up and the Mets’ bullpen has turned into a coin-flip unit (4.00 ERA since July). Even though New York is 44-26 at home, Miami carries a profitable 35-31-2 over record on the road and has already hung two competitive outings on Senga this year. Kenny only labeled it a lean, but he believes the price alone justifies a small wager on the fish.

Kenny G backed the Blue Jays at -120 in a would-be playoff atmosphere. He pointed out Brandon Woodruff’s recent wobble—eight runs allowed across his last 10 innings—and noted that five of his six quality starts came versus bottom-10 offenses. By contrast, 41-year-old Max Scherzer has delivered four gems in his past five outings and owns a 3.82 ERA on the season. Toronto is an MLB-best 44-24 at home and ranks first in batting average and OBP. Milwaukee’s bullpen ERA (3.79) has improved but remains a concern, and Kenny doubts the Brewers sweep in Rogers Centre given the Jays’ urgency to maintain a two-game lead in the AL Wild Card.

Kenny G advised backing Tampa Bay at -150. He likes left-hander Ian Seymour (3.18 ERA) after a dominant five-inning, one-hit, eight-strikeout start against Cleveland. Tampa’s bullpen owns a 3.48 ERA, while Washington’s is dead last at 5.23. The Nats have dropped seven straight and send Brad Lord (3.84 ERA) to the mound after he was rocked for 10 runs over his last two outings versus both New York clubs. Washington’s offense has scored just five total runs in its past four games and is 23rd in MLB in runs. Although the Rays’ bats have cooled (14th in runs, 19th OBP), Kenny trusts their pitching edge and the Nats’ free-fall to justify the price.

Kenny G said the Pirates were worth a sprinkle at +150 despite their ugly 22-46 road record. His angle is that Lucas Giolito could be flat after throwing 110 pitches in his last start, while Mitch Keller looked sharp his last time out. Boston is 41-27 at Fenway, but Giolito has allowed 12 runs in his past two outings and the Red Sox bullpen has a 4.46 ERA over the past month. Pittsburgh’s lineup has been inconsistent, yet Kenny noted the Bucs are 39-26-3 to the under on the road, suggesting a lower-variance game that makes a big dog more attractive. He called it only a "small lean," but felt the number was too rich to ignore.

Pressed for a side, Kenny G leaned to Pittsburgh at +150 even though he won’t elevate it to a pinned-comment best bet. His angle fades Lucas Giolito off an eight-inning shutout of Baltimore; the last time Giolito worked that deep he was rocked in his next start by San Diego. Kenny believes the same fatigue factor could surface here. Mitch Keller is coming off a solid six-inning, three-run performance and gives the Bucs a puncher’s chance against a Boston lineup that has produced only three runs in each of its last three games despite owning a top-five season-long scoring rate. He noted the Pirates have quietly won the first two games of the series, are playing their best ball of the year, and Boston’s offense is slumping while the price still reflects peak form. Road splits (Pittsburgh 22-46 away) keep it to a small wager, but Kenny thinks the combination of Keller’s uptick, Giolito’s potential drop-off, and juicy odds make the dog worth a sprinkle.

Kenny G said the best way to attack this matchup is to lay the short price with Cincinnati at –140. His confidence rests on the current form of the two starters. Andre Pallante owns a 6-12 record with a 5.44 ERA and the Cardinals have lost each of his last five outings, four of which Kenny called "flat-out disasters." On the other side, Brady Singer has reeled off three straight gems (CG shut-out vs Philadelphia, one-run efforts against the Angels and Diamondbacks) and the Reds are 4-1 in his last five turns. Singer also shoved six innings of one-run ball the only time he saw St. Louis this year. Kenny acknowledged the Cincinnati lineup has cooled (two runs or fewer in three of the last five) but trusts Singer and a serviceable 3.89 bullpen ERA to make that moot, especially because Pallante’s struggles should give the Reds an early cushion. He passed on the total despite Great American Ball Park’s league-best 40-21-5 under record, noting he would actually lean over 8.5 but prefers the Reds moneyline as his actionable play.

Kenny G grabbed Texas at +130 despite the Rangers’ 28-40 road mark, citing three angles: Patrick Corbin’s form, hot bats, and Arizona’s bullpen. Corbin (7-9, 4.33 ERA) just spun 8 scoreless innings with 8 K versus the Angels; the last time he went eight frames (early June) he followed with a serviceable start. Texas has won five straight and scored 9-9-5-27-0 during that run, with a 3.67 bullpen ERA providing late-inning cover. Ryne Nelson (7-3, 3.53 ERA) is off a strong outing against Milwaukee but allowed 5 ER in 5.1 IP when he faced Texas in August, and Kenny flat-out "doesn’t trust" the Diamondbacks’ relief corps. With Arizona laying –155 at 34-32 home, Kenny prefers the plus-money Rangers and their red-hot offense.

While the over is his primary bet, Kenny G still sided with Seattle at roughly –120 behind Luis Castillo. He acknowledged Castillo’s recent dip but expects a bounce-back against Shane Baz, whose 5.19 ERA and homer issues concern him more. Seattle is only 31-36 on the road, yet Tampa is a modest 34-33 at home. The Mariners rank 11th in runs (21st BA) compared with the Rays’ 13th in runs (19th OBP), and Kenny trusts Seattle’s lineup plus a still-solid 3.84 bullpen ERA slightly more than Tampa in this coin-flip price range.

Kenny G leaned toward Baltimore at +135 behind Kyle Bradish, who struck out 10 over six innings in his lone 2025 start after a mid-season call-up. Dylan Cease has been mediocre for San Diego (4.82 ERA, six earned over his last three starts), and while the Padres boast MLB’s best bullpen, their offense remains strangely inefficient—only 20th in runs despite ranking sixth in average and ninth in OBP. Baltimore’s bats have disappointed all year but Kenny thinks Bradish can out-pitch Cease long enough to take advantage of plus odds before the bullpens decide it. He did caution that the Orioles’ 4.66 bullpen ERA keeps this as a lighter conviction wager, yet the price still made them his preferred side.

Kenny G advised betting San Francisco –145 despite an uneasy starting matchup of Kai-Wei Teng versus Chase Dollander. His reasoning: the Giants’ lineup, normally bottom-third in every category, has exploded for 13, 15, and 12 runs in its last three and now faces a Rockies staff with the second-worst bullpen ERA in baseball. Colorado sits at 39-98, rarely wins two straight, and trots out Dollander, who is 2-11 with a 6.55 ERA and was blasted by the Dodgers and D-backs in two of his last three. San Francisco, in contrast, backs Teng with the second-best bullpen ERA in the majors, giving them plenty of bailout potential once the rookie exits. Kenny expects the surging Giants bats plus a massive relief edge to overwhelm a Colorado club that is 21-47 at home and flirting with historic futility.

Kenny G recommended laying the –160 money-line with Milwaukee. He pointed to Taijuan Walker’s ugly profile – four earned on 10 hits in his last outing and a 4-7 record with a 3.63 ERA that is propped up by soft opponents such as Washington. The last time Walker saw Milwaukee he lasted only four innings, surrendering seven hits and four runs. Philadelphia’s relief corps has been leaking oil all summer (4.37 bullpen ERA) and its bats have gone ice-cold after a 19-run outburst against Atlanta, scoring just six total runs in the three games that followed. Milwaukee counters with electric rookie Jacob Misiorowski, whose 10-strikeout effort against Arizona showed his ceiling even if the final line was noisy. The Brewers own the better pen (3.76 ERA), a 45-24 home record, and an offense that still ranks second in MLB in both batting average and OBP despite a brief lull. Kenny G expects that to be more than enough to secure the win against a Phillies club that is just 34-35 on the road.

Kenny G recommended taking the Angels at +120 in Houston, calling it his only lean from the matchup. His case hinges on the uncertainty surrounding Luis Garcia, who has not thrown a big-league pitch since 2023 because of elbow trouble. Garcia’s last recorded numbers (2-2, 4.00 ERA) come from that season, and Kenny doubts the Astros will let him work deep in his first game back. Behind Garcia is a Houston bullpen that he labeled merely “pretty decent” and trending the wrong way. The handicap is reinforced by the Astros’ ice-cold bats – 0, 1, 2, 4, 4 runs over their last five – and season-long ranks of 22nd in runs and 16th in slugging despite a shiny batting average. Meanwhile Los Angeles is 29-37 on the road but has been a profitable 35-29-2 to the over away from home, showing they can score. Kenny trusts Kikuchi on the mound more than a rehabbing Garcia and is willing to grab the plus money even though he won’t make it an official card play.
