LAS VEGAS -- It’s Saturday, June 28 and baseball fans are in for a full day of action from coast to coast. With every team in play and the postseason picture slowly taking shape, today’s slate is packed with opportunities. From early afternoon matchups to late-night showdowns, there’s no shortage of drama, big bats, and ace arms. Let’s get into the picks that could help start your weekend off with a win.
First Pick: San Francisco Giants -1.5
Rundown: The Giants are in a great spot on the road, facing a White Sox team that’s been outmatched all season and ranks near the bottom of the league in almost every offensive category. San Francisco has been swinging the bats better lately and should have no trouble taking advantage of Chicago’s shaky bullpen and inconsistent starting rotation. With a strong arm on the mound and their lineup heating up, this feels like a perfect recipe for a multi-run win. Laying the -1.5 has plenty of value against a team that struggles to keep games close.
Second Pick: Los Angeles Dodgers Moneyline
Rundown: Shohei Ohtani takes the mound for his second start of the season tonight. After one inning of work last time, he showed that he still has the arsenal of speed and movement that every ace needs. Going up against an inconsistent Royals squad, I love the Dodgers to take this one. With all the bats and a longer start for Ohtani, LA should take this one.
Third Pick: Los Angeles Angels Moneyline
Rundown: The Angels are showing signs of life again and walk into this matchup with a bit of momentum and a favorable pitching edge. They’re going up against a team that’s been shaky on the mound and hasn’t found consistency at the plate either. With some of their key bats starting to find a rhythm again, the Angels should be able to take control of this game early and keep it that way. It's not flashy, but it's a solid spot for a quiet, confident win from a team looking to climb back toward .500.
Fourth Pick: Potgueter To Win
Rubdown: Aldrich Potgireter is on fire. In his amateur and junior career he always has finished top three after leading on the first day, getting great value after getting passed or tied today by multiple golfers. The kid can hit a mile and loves to see what he is going to accomplish in his career.
