Another full 15-game slate of MLB is coming our way on Wednesday, July 23, and we have a ton of red-hot action to look forward to. Among today’s standout games are Giants vs Braves, Tigers vs Pirates, Orioles vs Guardians, Twins vs Dodgers, Red Sox vs Phillies and Yankees vs Blue Jays. One of the best and quickest ways to bet on the action is by wagering on whether a run will be scored in the first inning — YRFI or NRFI. There is value to be had in this market, so let’s dive into my YRFI/NRFI best bet of the day after yesterday’s winner. You can also find out our expert MLB picks for EVERY GAME today.
YRFI/NRFI best bet: Brewers vs Mariners – NRFI (-120)
Odds available at Fanatics Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Back-to-back days with a NRFI — it feels right. After we cashed yesterday’s pick in Tigers vs Pirates, I’m going for another quick inning — this time in Seattle. Milwaukee has failed to score in the 1st inning of 8 straight games. Luis Castillo is on the bump for Seattle and he holds a very impressive 2.06 ERA in games played in Seattle this season. Castillo has only allowed 2 earned runs in the 1st inning all year in 20 starts, which means he has a 0.90 ERA in the opening inning.
Conversely, Seattle has failed to score in the 1st inning in 4 straight games. Pitching for Milwaukee is Quinn Priester, a man who is pitching with complete confidence and is fresh off a stellar start against the Dodgers, striking out 10 men over 6 innings and not allowing a single run. I expect him to carry that over to this game where he should open hot. Let’s cash another one today!
