Now I’m starting to cook, with back-to-back wins on my daily best bets and four W’s in the past five days. Let’s build this into a proper heater, shall we? For my best bet for Thursday, August 28th: MLB Predictions, we’re off to Oracle Park in San Francisco, California. Let’s go!
Best Bet For Thursday (August 28th): MLB Predictions
Chicago Cubs vs San Francisco Giants
Start Time: 3:45 PM EST
It’s getaway day in The Bay, so we’ve got an early start time tomorrow as the Chicago Cubs and the San Francisco Giants meet for the final time this season (barring a not-very-likely playoff meeting). The Giants took Game 1, the Cubs are leading Game 2 as I write this, and I’m expecting the Cubs to win Game 3 tomorrow.
Yep, I’m in on the road dogs tomorrow in San Francisco. The Cubs are a significantly better team than the Giants, plain and simple, with advanced stats rating them as almost a run better than San Francisco tomorrow. Plus, they’re a better team on the road (35-31) than the Giants are in Oracle (31-33).
With Shota Imanaga going up against Logan Webb, there is no real distinct advantage for either team in what should be a pitcher’s duel.
All this makes the Cubs as a dog on the moneyline a steal of a play for Thursday.
Best Bet: Chicago ML (+104)
Best Bet Overall Record: 268-247 (52%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): -($1,604.29)
Return on Investment: -3%
