MLB Picks – Apr 13

The Cubs' right-handed heavy lineup capitalized on their platoon advantage against Sanchez as expected, while the favorable wind conditions at Citizens Bank Park helped push the total over 8.0 runs for a winning result.

Our Pittsburgh ML pick cashed as the pitching matchup played out as anticipated, with Paul Skenes' dominant stuff proving too much for Washington's right-handed-vulnerable lineup while the underlying concerns about Cavalli's sustainability materialized.

The over cashed as both offenses delivered the expected production, with the underlying metrics proving predictive as anticipated command issues and regression indicators materialized into the run-scoring opportunities we projected.

Our over 7.5 cashed as anticipated, with Bailey Ober's struggles materializing as expected and the pitching mismatch favoring offensive production throughout the contest.

Cleveland's victory validated our pre-game analysis as Gavin Williams' swing-and-miss stuff and the Guardians' platoon advantages against left-handed pitching materialized as expected, delivering value at the -118 price point.

Our read on both starting pitchers proved accurate, as Eovaldi and Severino's underlying struggles translated to the offensive production we anticipated. The over cleared comfortably with both starters failing to provide the length their teams needed.
