Free Baseball Picks – September 15
Gambling911.com has your free Baseball picks for September 15. We have four picks today.
Chicago Cubs vs. Pittsburgh Pirates UNDER 7 - Cubs LH Travis Wood (9-11, 3.05 ERA) vs. Pirates LH Francisco Liriano (16-7, 2.92)
Liriano has been sensational against the Cubs, posting a 3-1 record with a 1.88 ERA and 30 strikeouts over 28 2/3 innings. He’s also been especially good pitching at home. The Cubs have not been offering much run support. In 5 of their last 7 games, they have not had more than 2 runs.
Wood lost his last start against Pittsburgh despite only permitting one run. Over his last three starts, Chicago has allowed 4 runs or fewer.
8 of 10 in this series have either gone UNDER the current total or pushed at 7.
Cleveland Indians +107 - Indians RH Zach McAllister (7-9, 4.11 ERA) vs. White Sox LH Chris Sale (11-12, 2.90)
This looks like a sucker bet when you consider Cleveland is 14-2 in their last 16 meetings against Chicago.
Sale has three consecutive quality starts overall. McAllister is winless in three outings following a three-start winning streak. That said, McAllister is 2-1 with a 2.97 ERA in six career starts against Chicago.
Sale is 2-3 when starting against Cleveland with an ERA of 5.11 and a WHIP of 1.324.
Oakland +104 - Athletics RH Jarrod Parker (11-6, 3.55 ERA) vs. Rangers LH Martin Perez (9-4, 3.60)
Parker is 6-1 against Texas. He has eight straight quality starts and, ironically, it was against Texas where he last tasted defeat.
Parker permitted two runs in six innings against Texas on both Aug. 3 and Sept. 4.
Perez had a six-start winning streak come to an end his last start. He only allowed one run in his last start against Oakland on September 3.
Oakland has been playing especially well of late as Texas has come unraveled.
Texas are 7-1 in Perez's last 8 starts but he is only 2-2 starting at home.
We like the UNDER 9 in the Oakland/Texas game as well. 6 of 10 in this series have gone UNDER the current total.
