Wise n' Shine: MLB picks, NBA Draft odds and College Baseball predictions for Tuesday, June 20

Good morning, Pickswise Nation, and welcome to another terrific Tuesday of sports. There’s plenty of MLB baseball today along with a pair of huge College Baseball games, but we also have some NBA Draft content with the big day inching closer, so let’s get straight to making your next bet better.

About Last Night

Wake Forest remains undefeated
The College Baseball World Series continued on Monday night with two very exciting games, including Tennessee beating Stanford to send the Cardinal home and Wake Forest defeating LSU 3-2 to remain unbeaten. Our expert Keith picked the Demon Deacons to win the tournament at +275 odds before it started, and Wake now has -115 odds to be the winner.

Small, but mighty MLB slate
It was a slender but exciting MLB slate on Monday, and the highlight was the Royals losing their 15th consecutive game with Jordan Lyles on the mound. How’s that even possible? But around the league, the Diamondbacks crushed Corbin Burnes and the Brewers 9-1, the Mets dominated Hunter Brown and the Astros 11-1 and Luis Arraez and the Marlins smashed the Blue Jays 11-0.

Best Bet of the Day

MLB: Texas Rangers ML (-125) over Chicago White Sox
8:10 pm ET

The White Sox are bringing Dylan Cease to the mound, who is coming off a solid outing against the Dodgers. This season he has put up a 4.31 ERA and 1.34 WHIP. He’s been a strong strikeout pitcher but has struggled with walks and hard hits. The Rangers aren’t exactly an easy team to record strikeouts against, and they are more than capable of doing damage against opposing pitchers. Cease may be due for some regression in this matchup against such a talented team. To make matters worse for the White Sox, Nathan Eovaldi is pitching for the Rangers. Eovaldi has been fantastic this season, having a 2.59 ERA & 0.98 WHIP. Go with the better offense and far better pitcher in this one. Check out our full Texas Rangers vs Chicago White Sox predictions.
