Time to check in with the top MLB Best Bets and Props for today and see what the Thursday MLB slate has in store for us. We have an 11-game slate to examine today and after checking out the Vegas odds and lines it looks like our day might be filled with more prop bets than full-game bets. 

 

 

 

We would love to celebrate Patrick Corbin Day in typical fashion, but are the Detroit Tigers a team to celebrate with today? Especially when it’s part of the daytime slate. We do like the Minnesota Twins, so maybe their matchup against the Oakland Athletics and some strikeout props are the way to go with today’s MLB best bets.

MLB Picks, Predictions & Best Bets Today, 6/13

This is also not a day we are going to play heavily. Yesterday’s MLB predictions were extremely unkind, and it put us into a hole we need to carefully dig ourselves out of. We saw some really unlucky bounces and some of our pitchers really struggled the third time through the order. 

The worst thing you can do, though, is try to erase a deficit all in one fell swoop, especially when it’s a day like today. We have to stay on-track with our process and focus on betting what stands out to us the most. We don’t want to force anything, so if you’re down, don’t freak out. We’ll get it back, but it may take a day or two. 

  • Yesterday’s Record: 3-7
  • Season Record: 218-201-5
  • Bankroll: -6.75 units

 

 

 

Athletics vs. Twins Prediction: Thursday, June 13

The Twins are one of the hottest-hitting teams in MLB right now, posting the third-highest wOBA (.370) with a .343 BABIP over the last seven days. Not only are they routinely putting the ball in-play, but they’re not striking out at all either, posting a K-rate below 16-percent over that span. 

Oakland righty Luis Medina is making just his third start of the season and while we don’t expect him to be as bad as he was his last time out (6 ER over 4.2 IP vs Toronto), this Twins lineup is going to give him fits. We’ll focus on their offense today. 

They should get to Medina fairly early while Joe Ryan stifles the Oakland bats, so not only will our MLB predictions today hit the Twins team total early, but we’ll also look to the Minnesota bullpen to shut down the late innings and give us the rare home-team run-line bet. We’ll also take the plus-money on Medina getting chased without racking up much in strikeouts.
