YRFI/NRFI/NRSI best bet: Athletics vs Tigers – NRSI & Tigers +2.5 (-127)

Odds available at Caesars Sportsbook at time of publishing.

I really love this bet. Beyond the metrics of analyzing every game, we have a much more important stat. I have never lost a bet on my birthday and I don’t plan on it starting this year. Tarik Skubal is my favorite pitcher in the league and I expect my favorite player to come through and respect our coin on a day like this. Skubal is at home, where he pitches to the tune of a 1.88 ERA. I expect absolute domination from him as he looks to build on his Cy Young campaign from last year.

Pitching for the Athletics is Luis Severino, who has wild home/road splits. He will be pitching on the road, where he holds a 0.93 ERA. I expect him to help with our 3 outs needed in the 2nd inning. He has a great history against these Tigers batters. The NRSI alone is -170 so we need a nice reducer. I like the Tigers +2.5 on the alternate run line in any Skubal start, so that’s what I’m targeting to bring these odds down to a more digestible -127. Let’s stay hot on the diamond!
