Free MLB Picks for Monday August 8, 2022

Blue Jays vs. Orioles, 7:05 pm ET

The O's had a down game to finish their week on Sunday with a somewhat surprising capitulation against the Pirates. That loss won't sound too many alarm bells, though, with a decent chance to make amends tonight against an up-and-down Blue Jays outfit. Toronto have lost 3 of their last 5 games and will send out Yusei Kikuchi (4-5, 4.86 ERA) to the mound - a man who has had mixed results this year. With Baltimore's strong run defense a feature of their season, we're expecting a close game with a potential bounce back.

BET: Orioles +1.5 (-122)

Reds vs. Mets, 7:10 pm ET

Former Mariner Justin Dunn will be thrown into the rotation for his first Major League start this season, replacing rookie Hunter Greene who has been placed on the 15-day injured list. Dunn had a 1-3 record from 11 starts in his time in Seattle last year and has struggled in the minors more recently as he has rehabbed from an injury of his own, giving up 11 runs, and 9 walks in 12 innings pitched from three starts. That screams feeding time for this Mets lineup who will be full of confidence after a strong weekend series against the Braves. This really shouldn't pose any problems for a team with expectations as high as New York.

Giants vs. Padres, 9:40 pm ET

Things couldn't have gone much worse for the Padres in Los Angeles this weekend with a series sweep at the hands of the Dodgers, but heck, these things happen in the MLB. They'll have a chance to get things right with a fresh series against another NL West rival in the Giants tonight, with Blake Snell on the mound and really rolling with three straight impressive starts in an indication that the ace has found his rhythm after a return from injury. He should be able to restrain the San Francisco hitters and give this stacked Padres batting lineup the chance to really cook.

BET: Padres -1.5 (+125)
