Mets vs Braves MLB Free Pick
The Angle(s): The bats have completely stolen the show in this series, with the last two games combining for a staggering 36 runs. The starting pitching profiles for the finale suggest the fireworks are set to continue.
The Mets hand the ball to right-hander Freddy Peralta (5-7, 4.81 ERA), who has hit a major speed bump lately, laboring through an ugly 8.49 ERA over his past five starts
The Braves counter with right-hander Reynaldo Lopez (4-1, 3.31 ERA). While Lopez has been much sharper than his counterpart this summer, he has frequently struggled to go deep into games, often forcing an early handover to the bullpen.
With both orders swinging hot bats, expect the scoreboard to light up early and often.
The Bet: Over (3%).
Consultant Bio
Magic Mike Moneymaker's experience as a professional poker player has proven to be an immeasurable asset in sports handicapping. He's a numbers guy, with a keen eye for spotting trends and stats that just don't jive with the odds offered by the bookmakers. All Mike's plays come with write ups backing up his selection, giving you a glimpse into his process of breaking down games.
Just as in cash game poker, the goal is not to win that giant pot once in a while, but to build your bankroll slowly and steadily by identifying +EV situations to exploit.
----Handicapping Methodology----
As a former online poker pro, Mike knows the value of creating systems and winning formulas through statistical analysis and math to use as a baseline, but much like poker, sports are played by human beings with emotions and feelings.
Identifying letdown spots, bounce-back spots and situational betting in general plays a big part in Mike's success in picking winners, but he's also not a stranger to locking in a bet based on stats and trends alone.
