7 Unit Play. Take #919 Detroit +100 over Minnesota (7:40p.m., Wednesday, September 2 MLB.tv) It is hard to sweep a divisional opponent, and I do not see the Twins completing this sweep on Wednesday night. The Tigers have the better starting pitcher on the mound in Drew Anderson. He has allowed 3 earned runs or less in all of his starts this season. He has been a tough luck loser of late, but he should receive plenty of run support against Dean Kremer. He has been hit hard of late allowing 11 earned runs in his last 3 starts with just under 15 innings of work. I just cannot see the Tigers getting to him at some point in this game. Getting the Tigers at an underdog price is too good to pass up.

2-Unit Play. Take #903 Atlanta (-130) over Washington (1 p.m.)
The Braves took one on the chin yesterday but should bounce back here. Washington is going with a bullpen game and they have one of the worst bullpens in baseball. The Braves have dropped back-to-back games but are still 7-2 in their last nine and should get this one.
2-Unit Play. Take #912 L.A. Dodgers (-1.5, -115) over St. Louis (10 p.m.)
The Dodgers allowed 13 runs yesterday and got embarrassed at home. They should rebound here. St. Louis still hasn’t even announced a starter and they are going to be throwing out some meatball to face an angry Dodgers lineup. Yoshi Yamamoto should dominate this one.
1-Unit Play. Take #919 Detroit (-105) over Minnesota (7:40 p.m.)
2-Unit Play. Take #919 Detroit (-1.5, +160) over Minnesota (7:40 p.m.)
Detroit is off the rails and over a cliff. Drew Anderson has been solid since being added to the rotation and should continue his steady work. Dean Kremer has been getting knocked around some coming to the Twins and I think his struggles will continue.
2-Unit Play. Take #925 Baltimore (-1.5, -110) over Colorado (3 p.m.)
Tomoyuki Sugano has a 5.23 ERA on the season and has allowed 17 runs in his last 12 innings of work. The Rockies are 1-4 in his last five starts and the Orioles know Sugano well after he spent time with them. The Orioles took the L yesterday but has still been playing very well over the last three weeks and I like them to rebound.
2-Unit Play. Take #928 Tampa Bay (-1.5, +125) over N.Y. Mets (6:40 p.m.)

The Mariners are terrible on the road, on the season they are 18 games below .500 away from home. Seattle starter Miller has really struggled on the road going 0-5 with 7+ ERA in last 7 road starts. Take Boston to win on the moneyline today.
2-Unit Play. Take #929 Miami (-105, moneyline) Over Kansas City (7:40 pm, Wednesday September 2) **Caesars Odds**
The Marlins beat KC for 2nd straight night as big starting pitching edge is the key. Perez has been great in all but last start recently in fact Marlins have won 3 of his last 4 starts. Take Marlins on the moneyline.

TWO PLAYS BELOW with the Top Game Listed First and the Day Game is listed below it:
8-Unit Play. Take #919/920 'Over' 8.5 -120 Detroit at Minnesota (7:40 p.m., Wednesday, Sept 2)
This one sets up perfectly. The Twins are absolutely crushing the ball at the plate and it is another warm evening in the forecast for Target Field in Minneapolis Wednesday. The Twins have scored 31 runs in their current 3-0 hot streak at home and they have hit 8 homers in these 3 games. That includes particularly hammering Tigers pitching so far in this series. Now, what about those quiet Detroit bats? Indeed the Tigers have recently struggled at the plate but this is the perfect matchup to get them rolling again. Detroit will be facing Dean Kremer of the Twins. He got absolutely destroyed for 8 earned runs when he, as a member of the Orioles, gave up 8 earned runs in an ugly loss to these Tigers recently in late July. Now, while it is true he has pitched a little better since coming to Minnesota from Baltimore, a closer look reveals some concerns. Kremer had his best start in an outing in which he faced his former team, the Orioles, almost immediately after the trade. That was a special start for him but since then, Kremer has allowed 11 earned runs in less than 15 innings of work over his last 3 starts. He allowed at least 1 homer in all 3 starts. Also, he has 6 walks in 9.1 innings in his last 2 starts. As for the Tigers Drew Anderson, the right-hander has some decent numbers this season but not only is he taking on a red-hot lineup here, there is much more than meets the eye at first glance with him. For one thing, he is 1-5 with a 5.08 ERA on the road so he has not been the same pitcher away from home. Though Anderson threw 4.2 scoreless innings in his most recent start, he did walk 5 and allowed 4 hits for an average of about 2 baserunners per inning. In other words, he was fortunate. Also, prior to that outing, Anderson allowed 3 earned runs in just 5 innings in each of his two prior starts. He is unlikely to have success here and unlikely to work deep as you can see. Also, it is not like the Tigers bullpen behind him has had any success against the sizzling hot Twins lineup either so far in this series. In other words, per all of the above, you can see why the over 8.5 here is an extremely strong value and I look for double digits in runs in this one just like each of the first two games of this series. This time the Tigers also contribute well, per the above, and I don't see the Twins bats slowing down! 8* OVER 8.5 -120 in Minnesota
3-Unit Play. Take #925/926 'Over' 11 -120 Baltimore at Colorado (3:10 p.m., Wed, Sept 2)
The third time will be the charm here after the first two games of this series were surprising unders. The ball carries even better in the hot weather of a day game here at Coors Field and I like this pitching match-up for an over as well. The Rockies send Sugano to the mound and he went 1-4 with an 8.61 ERA in August and with opponents hitting .359 against him! Also, he has a 6.07 ERA in day games this season. The Orioles send Trevor Rogers to the mound here and he has allowed 14 earned runs in 21 innings over his last 4 road starts and now he has to make a start at one of the toughest venues in all of baseball. He gave up 6 earned runs in 5 innings at St Louis in his most recent start and this is another tough outing for him here. Finally, after surprising results the first two games, both teams erupt here for a ton of runs. 3* OVER 11 -120 in Colorado

4-Unit Play. #909. Take Over 8.5 Runs Milwaukee vs. Chicago Cubs (Wednesday @ 7:40pm est)
We roll with the Over here between these two squads. A couple of things here, we have two pitchers who have had success against both these opposing pitchers and I think things change here slightly for this contest. Misiorowski pitches here and yes he has been fantastic and unbelievable but with the Brewers winning 9-4 last game, this is a great opportunity for the Cubs to be active underdogs and push the tempo for the over here. Peterson comes off back to back losses, he could pitch better, but of course, he has also yielded 12 walks in his last 5 games as well and therefore, put this together and look for this game to likely go over the posted total this evening.

Take #916 Boston (-135) over Seattle
*4 EST
Boston scored 6 yesterday against one of the worst road teams in MLB with Woo on the bump for Seattle, and still lost as they gave up 9 runs. I do not see a repeat today as the Red Sox get to face Byrce Miller on the hill for Seattle with over a 7 ERA his last 5 starts and not a single win. He is backed by a bad bullpen and getting Boston in Revenge mode with Sandoval on the bump for them, We all know he is a southpaw, and the Mariners have huge issues against left-handed pitching, and as a team their last 10 games have hit left handers at .183 as a team. Boston in revenge mode here with a clear advantage at home is no brainer at a reasonable number.

7-Unit Play: #906 Arizona +110 over Philadelphia (Wednesday, September 2, 2026, 3:40pm ET)
Take Arizona on the moneyline as my top MLB pick for Wednesday afternoon. This pick falls into one of my top MLB systems and I really like this pitching matchup for Arizona here today. Painter has an ERA of 5.95 overall this season with a WHIP of 1.44. Opponents have hit .274 against him overall this season, including .281 against him on the road, leaving him with an ERA of 6.08 on the road this season. Clarke takes the mound for Arizona and he has pitched great overall this season, with opponents hitting just .202 against him with an on-base percentage of just .246. Opponents have also hit just .160 against him at home this season leaving him with an ERA of 1.74 at home. During day game starts Clarke has been lights-out with opponents hitting just .125 against him leaving him with an ERA of 0.72. Play Arizona moneyline
Scott Spreitzer
4-Unit Play: Take 912 Dodgers -1.5, -110 (RL) over Cards (10:10 p.m., Wed. Sept. 2)
The Redbirds took it to the Dodgers last night, knocking Eric Lauer all over Chavez Ravine. But tonight the job at the plate gets tougher – much tougher. Yoshinobu Yamamoto has been terrific all season and August was his best month, so I don’t see any issues moving into September. The Dodgers are the fourth highest scoring team in MLB on average and top-five in OPS and batting average and the Redbirds are likely going with a bullpen game. That’s not a very good bullpen, by the way. I’m laying the run line with the Dodgers. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.
2-Unit Play: Take 916 Red Sox -130 over Mariners (4:10 p.m., Wed., Sept. 2)
Bryce Miller has hit the proverbial wall and I’ll play against him this afternoon. Miller has allowed 20 earned runs, 34 base runners, and five homers in his last 20 IP (four starts). Seattle lost all four games by a combined score of 62 to 7. Boston has won all four home starts by Patrick Sandoval and I’ll back them to make it five straight. I’m playing the Red Sox. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.
August Young
4-Unit Play (903) Atlanta Braves -140 over Washington Nationals (9/1 @ 1:05PM EST) Grant Holmes has been up and down, but this number is off. The Braves are 82-57 on the season and had won seven straight before the recent string of two losses. The Nats are 7 games below .500 and winning five of their last six does not make them live here. Especially considering the fact Brad Lord is top of our list to be lit up and face a nasty regression. Solid value on this one.
Strike Point Sports
5-Unit Play. Take #930 Kansas City (-110) over Miami (7:40 p.m. Wednesday, September 2)
The Royals are playing some of the best baseball they have all season, but it is a little too late for them to make a serious run at the playoffs. Noah Cameron is coming off a great month of August where he went 4-0 with a 1.87 ERA across 33.2 innings, and he was excellent in his last two starts in July where he did not allow a run over 15 innings. Eury Perez will be starting for the Marlins and he has not been as effective on the road (2-6, 4.05 ERA) this season as compared to when he pitches in Miami (5-4, 2.81 ERA). Walks have been a major issue for Perez on the road as he has given up 16 over his past 5 starts with Miami going 1-4 over that stretch. The Marlins still have an outside chance to make the playoffs, but I think they will come up short of that pursuit, just like they will in this contest. I like Kansas City in this one.
Best of Luck – Strike Point Sports

4 Unit Play Take #929 Miami +100 over Kansas City (7:40pm est):
Miami has beat up on bad teams posting a 32-9 record their last 41 versus below .500 teams like the Kansas City squad they face here. The Royals have been a mess this year having cost their backers more than 13 units overall this season. The Royals have went 8-17 against winning teams this season like the Marlins.
Play Miami.
Thank you and good luck,

1 Unit Play - Take #904 WSH Nationals (+130) Over ATL Braves. (1:05p.m, Wednesday, September 2nd)
Well, if you were in Atlanta yesterday, more times than not the public is going right back to them tonight with a better pitcher and line. Holmes gets the start with a 9-5 record and a 3.71 ERA. The Braves were also -185 yesterday and fell all the way to -150 by game time. Today they are -139 on several books, and we believe this is another perfect spot to fade them. We will roll with one of the best hitting teams in baseball and expect a bad night from Holmes.

4 Units: Take #922 HOU Astros ML (-140) over CHW White Sox (8:10PM, Wednesday, September 2nd)
We're backing the Houston Astros moneyline tonight as they aim to close out the series and secure the rubber match victory at Daikin Park. Dropping Tuesday night's game 5-1 was a minor bump in the road, but this deciding game sets up perfectly for Houston on home turf. The Astros send right-hander Hayden Wesneski (4-1, 3.86 ERA) to the mound. Wesneski has been extremely efficient in his starting role, keeping baserunners at bay with a sharp 1.19 WHIP and allowing just two home runs over 32.2 innings of work. His pitch mix generates quick outs, giving Houston a distinct early-inning edge. Chicago counters with righty Davis Martin (9-6, 4.32 ERA). While Martin brings durability, his traffic management has been an ongoing issue, holding a 1.33 WHIP after surrendering 127 hits and 39 walks over 125.0 innings. A disciplined Houston lineup led by Yordan Alvarez and Jeremy Pena is well-equipped to capitalise on those free passes and force Martin into high-stress, deep counts early. Expect Wesneski to set a firm tone, the Astros' bats to rebound aggressively, and Houston's back-end bullpen to shut the door for the series win.

4-Unit Play: Take 912 Dodgers -1.5, -110 (RL) over Cards (10:10 p.m., Wed. Sept. 2)The Redbirds took it to the Dodgers last night, knocking Eric Lauer all over Chavez Ravine. But tonight the job at the plate gets tougher – much tougher. Yoshinobu Yamamoto has been terrific all season and August was his best month, so I don’t see any issues moving into September. The Dodgers are the fourth highest scoring team in MLB on average and top-five in OPS and batting average and the Redbirds are likely going with a bullpen game. That’s not a very good bullpen, by the way. I’m laying the run line with the Dodgers. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.
2-Unit Play: Take 916 Red Sox -130 over Mariners (4:10 p.m., Wed., Sept. 2)
Bryce Miller has hit the proverbial wall and I’ll play against him this afternoon. Miller has allowed 20 earned runs, 34 base runners, and five homers in his last 20 IP (four starts). Seattle lost all four games by a combined score of 62 to 7. Boston has won all four home starts by Patrick Sandoval and I’ll back them to make it five straight. I’m playing the Red Sox. Thanks & GL! Scott Spreitzer.

4-Unit Play (903) Atlanta Braves -140 over Washington Nationals (9/1 @ 1:05PM EST) Grant Holmes has been up and down, but this number is off. The Braves are 82-57 on the season and had won seven straight before the recent string of two losses. The Nats are 7 games below .500 and winning five of their last six does not make them live here. Especially considering the fact Brad Lord is top of our list to be lit up and face a nasty regression. Solid value on this one.Strike Point Sports
5-Unit Play. Take #930 Kansas City (-110) over Miami (7:40 p.m. Wednesday, September 2)The Royals are playing some of the best baseball they have all season, but it is a little too late for them to make a serious run at the playoffs. Noah Cameron is coming off a great month of August where he went 4-0 with a 1.87 ERA across 33.2 innings, and he was excellent in his last two starts in July where he did not allow a run over 15 innings. Eury Perez will be starting for the Marlins and he has not been as effective on the road (2-6, 4.05 ERA) this season as compared to when he pitches in Miami (5-4, 2.81 ERA). Walks have been a major issue for Perez on the road as he has given up 16 over his past 5 starts with Miami going 1-4 over that stretch. The Marlins still have an outside chance to make the playoffs, but I think they will come up short of that pursuit, just like they will in this contest. I like Kansas City in this one.
Best of Luck – Strike Point Sports

Wednesday September 2nd 2026-4 Unit Play Take #929 Miami +100 over Kansas City (7:40pm est):
Miami has beat up on bad teams posting a 32-9 record their last 41 versus below .500 teams like the Kansas City squad they face here. The Royals have been a mess this year having cost their backers more than 13 units overall this season. The Royals have went 8-17 against winning teams this season like the Marlins.
Play Miami.
Thank you and good luck,

1 Unit Play - Take #904 WSH Nationals (+130) Over ATL Braves. (1:05p.m, Wednesday, September 2nd)Well, if you were in Atlanta yesterday, more times than not the public is going right back to them tonight with a better pitcher and line. Holmes gets the start with a 9-5 record and a 3.71 ERA. The Braves were also -185 yesterday and fell all the way to -150 by game time. Today they are -139 on several books, and we believe this is another perfect spot to fade them. We will roll with one of the best hitting teams in baseball and expect a bad night from Holmes.

4 Units: Take #922 HOU Astros ML (-140) over CHW White Sox (8:10PM, Wednesday, September 2nd)We're backing the Houston Astros moneyline tonight as they aim to close out the series and secure the rubber match victory at Daikin Park. Dropping Tuesday night's game 5-1 was a minor bump in the road, but this deciding game sets up perfectly for Houston on home turf. The Astros send right-hander Hayden Wesneski (4-1, 3.86 ERA) to the mound. Wesneski has been extremely efficient in his starting role, keeping baserunners at bay with a sharp 1.19 WHIP and allowing just two home runs over 32.2 innings of work. His pitch mix generates quick outs, giving Houston a distinct early-inning edge. Chicago counters with righty Davis Martin (9-6, 4.32 ERA). While Martin brings durability, his traffic management has been an ongoing issue, holding a 1.33 WHIP after surrendering 127 hits and 39 walks over 125.0 innings. A disciplined Houston lineup led by Yordan Alvarez and Jeremy Pena is well-equipped to capitalise on those free passes and force Martin into high-stress, deep counts early. Expect Wesneski to set a firm tone, the Astros' bats to rebound aggressively, and Houston's back-end bullpen to shut the door for the series win.
