Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner preview MLB Tuesday betting schedule is packed with sharp betting opportunities and valuable matchups for bettors seeking an edge. This expert MLB betting analysis breaks down key games, highlighting top MLB moneyline picks, underdog plays, and totals worth considering. We begin north of the border with the Blue Jays hosting the Yankees on Canada Day. Despite Kevin Gausman's recent struggles versus New York, the Jays offer home underdog value. Max Fried has been in elite form, but Griffin Warner leans Toronto while Munaf Manji prefers the under. In Philadelphia, Nick Pivetta takes the mound for the Padres against Christopher Sanchez and the Phillies. Pivetta's elite stuff and the Padres' superior bullpen provide value, leading both hosts to side with the under and the Padres. Paul Skenes Day in Pittsburgh raises red flags as he's lost four straight to the Cardinals despite quality outings. Both experts prefer St. Louis plus money and favor the under, citing the Pirates' inconsistency and the Cardinals' strong bullpen. In Miami, Joe Ryan's dominance makes the Twins a solid first five play against the streaking Marlins. Edward Cabrera's walk issues and a volatile Twins bullpen push Munaf to target early betting value and the under. The Tigers and Nationals offer one of the day's best over spots. With Jack Flaherty and Trevor Williams both unreliable and Detroit trending 12-1 to the over in road series openers, both hosts lock in on the over 9.5. In Tampa, the surging Rays send Shane Baz against Jeffrey Springs and the A's. Tampa's hot June offense and Baz's recent dominance make them a clear moneyline and team total over pick. The Brewers are Griffin's top play as Freddy Peralta faces Clay Holmes and the sliding Mets. Milwaukee is red hot, while New York struggles late in games. Munaf highlights Peralta's spotless record vs. the Mets and backs the plus money. In Boston, the Reds look to rebound after a wild series opener. With Richard Fitz struggling, Griffin and Munaf support the Reds moneyline and game over. The Angels and Braves offer another over candidate with Tyler Anderson and Grant Holmes on the mound in a hitter-friendly park. Atlanta's power and Anderson's road overs make this a strong target for runs. In Arlington, Jacob deGrom's excellence anchors a Rangers first five run line play against Baltimore's shaky Brandon Young. With a low park run profile, the full game under also draws interest. The Cubs host a reeling Guardians squad that can't hit lefties, making Matthew Boyd and the under strong leans. Griffin notes Cleveland's ugly error stats and poor bullpen. The Astros visit the Rockies in Coors Field with Houston sending a lefty against a team that's 1-13 at home vs. LHP. Over 11 and Astros run line stand out. In Arizona, the Giants are a live dog with Hayden Birdsong facing the struggling Zac Gallen. With the D-backs' bullpen decimated, Munaf leans Giants team total over and game over. Seattle's pitcher-friendly environment makes Royals-Mariners a tough call, but under 8 has value despite weak starters Lorenzen and Hancock. Finally, the Dodgers host the White Sox in a mismatch. Yoshinobu Yamamoto's recent dip doesn't deter confidence, and Dodgers team total over is the clearest angle. Griffin and Munaf close with best bets: Griffin on the Brewers ML and Reds ML, Munaf on Tigers/Nats Over and Rangers first five run line. Together they offer sharp insights and valuable MLB betting predictions for Tuesday. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Take 10 with Tim – April 18, 2025 – 9:30 am. We will use Microsoft Teams1.The Cubs demoted Matt Shaw this week after getting off to a tough start, where he only hit .172 in 18 games.a.It appears Gage Workman will be on the strong side of a platoon with Jon Berti. Workman is a Rule-5 guy I recommended during the Spring because I thought he'd get a shot. Any chance for success here?b.If we're taking Matt Shaw's demotion, one has to wonder when the Nationals will pull the plug on Dylan Crews. Crew's performance makes Matt Shaw look like an All-Star.2.Spencer Strider returns to the mound after almost a year to the day of his TJS. a.Were you encouraged? 5.0 IP, 5 hits, 2 ER, 5K/1BB. Fastball was a tad off – down 0.9 MPH 3.Surprising Starts - Sell High or hold what you gota.Tyler Soderstrom (ATH) – 76 PA, 8 HR, 17 RBI, .324 BA, 14K/8BBb.Spencer Torkelson (Det) – 79 PA, 6 HR, 14 runs, 13 RBI, .275 BA, 25K/9BBc.Matt Mervis (Mia) – 45 PA, 6 HR, 12 RBI, .275 BA, 18K/4BBd.Ben Rice (NYY) – 65 PA, 5 HR, 2 SB, 12 runs, 7 RBI, .273 BA, 15K/10BBe.Kameron Misner (TB) – 49 PA, 3 HR, 1 SB, 9 runs, 10 RBI, .395 BA, 8K/3BBf.Trent Grisham (NYY) – 44 PA, 4 HR, 10 RBI, 10 Runs, .308 BA, 8K/4BBg.Pete Crow Armstrong (CHC) – 89 PA, 15 runs, 10 RBI, 3 HR, 7 SB, .259 BA, 22K/5BBh.Trevor Story (Bos) – 80 PA, 3 HR, 6 SB, .299 BA, 24K/3BBi.Geraldo Perdomo (AZ) – 79 PA, 9 runs, 16 RBI, 3 HR, 2 SB, .311 BA, 5K/13BBj.Jung Hoo Lee (SF) – 76 PA, 19 runs, 14, RBI, 3 HR, 3 SB, .338, 12K/7BB4.The Brewers traded for Quinn Priester, and he responded with an impressive win on Tuesday against the Tigers. Granted, it was the Tigers, but I wrote a long post about him to our Patreon members, indicating that the data looked pretty good. Was this just a lucky outing or do you think it's sustainable?5.The Dodgers are handling their pitching staff as we suggested. They are using that fifth spot in the rotation, soon to be sixth as a minor league start. They've used Justin Wrobleski, Bobby Miller, and Landon Knack. Knack has pitched the best. Is he worth a grab, or with Ohanti and Gonsolin due back, should you avoid the entire situation?6.I saw where you were able to trade for Shane Baz in our Dynasty League and, surprisingly, it didn't cost you much. Were you surprised?a.What do you think the upside is with Baz this season and in Dynasty Leagues?7.Let's take a look at the standings – just looking for surprise starts (both good and bad) and do you think they will stay that way.a.American Leagueb.National League8.I know we don't have regrets, but I want two anyway.a.Who do you wish you had left on the draft table for someone else?b.Who should you have drafted and didn't?9.What one hitter are you looking to add in this weekend's FAAB?10.What one pitcher are you looking to add int his weekend's FAAB?

The Pirates drop to 1-5 after a brutal 7–0 loss to the Rays in Thomas Harrington's MLB debut — and we're breaking it all down on tonight's NS9 Postgame Show powered by Primanti Bros. Jim and Doug dive into a flat, lifeless offensive performance from Pittsburgh, Shane Baz's dominance, and the laundry list of issues plaguing the Bucs lineup — from base-running blunders to coaching concerns. We also take a deeper look at Harrington's debut: what went wrong, signs of promise, and whether he should get another shot. Plus: Oneil Cruz's continued struggles in center and how this roster construction has left the Pirates stuck in neutral to start the year.
Thomas Harrington makes his major league debut and it went about as bad as you could draw it up. The good thing is (sarcasm), Shane Baz was awesome, too. 7-0 loss. Let's talk Harrington and the decision to send David Bednar to AAA.https://linktr.ee/bridgetobuctoberhttp://steelcitypirates.com/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/bridge-to-buctober/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
