Milwaukee Brewers vs Boston Red Sox Preview

Sat, Apr 22. 18:05 (UK time)

Nick Pivetta has pitched 14 innings over his three starts in 2023, never going longer than five innings. The Milwaukee Brewers are seventh in pitches seen per plate appearance, above average in runs scored per game, and fifth in walk rate. Just two teams take a higher percentage of pitches.

Command has been a career-long issue for Pivetta. He has often been around the 9% walk rate mark, and has seen 12.5% of hitters walk to first in 2023.

Milwaukee Brewers vs Boston Red Sox Best Bet

It would be a huge surprise to see Pivetta make it to the sixth inning. He hasn’t done so in his last seven starts. Hammer the under here.

Selection: Nick Pivetta under 15.5 outs
Best Odds: 1.91 (Bet365)
Stakes: 8/10

Arizona Diamondbacks vs San Diego Padres Preview

Sat, Apr 22. 02:40 (UK time)

The Arizona Diamondbacks have scored five or more runs in five consecutive games. Seth Lugo allowed three earned in 3.2 frames last time out. Don’t be distracted by Lugo’s strong first two starts – the former Met has an xERA over four, and ranks only around league average in underlying metrics.

Lugo has allowed more than a hit per inning, which doesn’t bode well against a Diamondbacks line up sitting second in contact rate.

Arizona Diamondbacks vs San Diego Padres Best Bet

Arizona is also 12th in expected slugging, while Lugo is allowing a hard-hit rate over 40%. Having thrown 93 or more pitches in all of his starts, San Diego is going to let Lugo pitch through some trouble which should allow the Dbacks to put up at least three runs on him.

Selection: Seth Lugo over 2.5 earned runs
Best Odds: 1.87 (Bet365)
Stakes: 5/10

Los Angeles Angels vs Kansas City Royals Preview

Sat, Apr 22. 02:40 (UK time)

The Kansas City Royals are a brutal 4-15 to start the season. They face the Angels and Shohei Ohtani on Friday night. Yes, the Angels dropped a couple of games to the Yankees, and Jeff Passan ignited the Ohtani trade rumours again on Thursday.

The Angels, though, are 6-3 against teams under .500. Ohtani has allowed six hits in 21 innings, with 27 strikeouts and just two earned runs.

Kansas City sends Taylor Clarke to the mound, owning a 6.75 ERA. Their offence is well-below league average across metrics both traditional and advanced.

Los Angeles Angels vs Kansas City Royals Best Bet

The Angels have won Ohtani’s last three starts. Look for the two-way phenom to shutdown the Royals tonight.

Selection: Los Angeles Angels -1.5
Best Odds: 1.74 (Bet365)
Stakes: 6/10

WHAT IS A BASEBALL ACCA?

A baseball acca is an accumulator bet, a type of bet that consists of several selections across different matches that are combined together into one single bet. An acca usually. consists of at least four selections but many more can be included. There will be odds for the single bet as a whole which is calculated by multiplying the odds of all of the selections. A baseball acca is one of the most popular ways to bet. This is the case because they can create potentially massive odds for a small stake. Many punters choose to create MLB accas which is what we have created here. If one of these selections loses then the baseball acca will lose. This type of bet needs every selection to win in order to succeed.
