I hit a couple of plus-money picks on Sunday, but that was it. The slump continues. Luckily I was super hot starting off August so I’m still in the money. Here are my MLB picks for August 22nd. Let’s go!

MLB Picks for August 22nd
Washington Nationals @ New York Yankees
Start Time – 7:05 pm EST
Yankee Stadium
Broadcast – YES
I’m not playing the Yankees – losers of eight straight – on the moneyline at -192, that is for certain. However, starters Josiah Gray and Carlos Rodon (this his first start back off the injured list) have been getting lit up in their recent starts, so the Over it is
Bet: Over 8.5 (-122)
St. Louis Cardinals @ Pittsburgh Pirates
Start Time – 7:05 pm EST
PNC Park
Broadcast – SNPT
Same play here as in the Nationals-Yankees game. Adam Wainwright and Johan Oviedo have been abysmal. OVER!!
Bet: Over 9.5 (-115)
Los Angeles Dodgers @ Cleveland Guardians
Start Time – 7:10 pm EST
Progressive Field
Broadcast – BSGL
Bobby Miller has been rolling for the Dodgers; Noah Syndergaard is an autofade. Plus, both teams are constantly going Under, so that’s the play
Bets: Dodgers -218, Under 9 (-110)
Miami Marlins @ San Diego Padres
Start Time – 9:40 pm EST
PETCO Park
Broadcast – ESPN, ESPN2
Blake Snell vs. Jesus Luzardo is a no-brainer. And I’m thinking the Padres can touch up Luzardo enough to hit the Over.
Bets: San Diego -180, Over 7.5 (-115)
