Thursday MLB Predictions
Angels vs. Rangers
2:05 p.m. ET
If you’re going to be wagering on an MLB game in the early afternoon, what better game to choose than a completely meaningless one.
The Angels (65-84) and Rangers (64-84) are within half a game of each other in the standings, but they’re not exactly battling for anything noteworthy at this point.
That doesn’t mean sharps aren’t looking to find value, however, and they’ve deemed that they have it with the Rangers.
75% of the wagers and 86% of the money have come in on the favorite, including a hefty percentage of the sharp action.
That’s enough to trigger our ‘Big Money’ signal as well, but the odds for this game range from -150 to -170, so be sure to find the best price available to you.
PRO Pick: Rangers -150

Giants vs. Rockies
3:10 p.m. ET
Much like the matchup above, neither the Giants nor the Rockies will be competing in the postseason this year.
Nonetheless, sharps like what they see in these prices as well, with money coming in on the Giants. While only 34% of the betting tickets are on the Giants, a majority of the sharp action we’ve seen has come in on San Francisco.
This line hasn’t yet moved from its original pick ’em position.
PRO Pick: Giants -110
