Best MLB Bets Today - Free (Tuesday 6/11)

Tuesday night promises some exciting MLB action. Every team in the league are set to play in the day’s 15-game slate. I’ve handpicked two games for a parlay.

Cleveland Guardians vs. Cincinnati Reds

Right-hander Triston McKenzie is set to take the mound in Great American Ball Park for the Guardians. McKenzie, who initially struggled to find his strikeout rhythm this season, has now hit his stride. He has managed to accumulate at least five strikeouts in nine consecutive starts. The Reds, a team known for their vulnerability to right-handed pitching, have the third-highest K rate against RHP this season at (26.5%). This sets the stage for an exciting matchup for McKenzie. CIN has seven targets in the lineup with an above-league average K% for the year:

TJ Friedl: 20.0%
Stuart Fairchild: 25.6%
Elly De La Cruz: 33.3%
Jeimer Candelario: 26.9%
Jake Fraley: 21.4%
Tyler Stephenson: 22.4%
Jonathan India: 23.9%
Will Benson: 42.1%

Atlanta Braves vs. Baltimore Orioles

Max Fried and the Braves are set to face Albert Suárez and the Orioles at Oriole Park in Camden Yards. Like McKenzie, Fried struggled to begin the year but has been brilliant for Atlanta over the last month and a half. The Orioles have been excellent against left-handed pitching this season but have struggled a bit lately. Baltimore has the eighth-worst wRC+ vs. LHP and the 16th-worst OBP over the last 15 days. Baltimore has also struck out at a high rate against LHP; they have the seventh-highest K% in the league vs. lefties at (23.9%). Max Fried has raked up at least five strikeouts in eight of his 12 starts this season and in five straight starts on the road. There are six guys with above-league-average K% vs. LHP in the BAL lineup:

Jordan Westburg: 28.8%
Anthony Santander: 25.0%
Austin Hays: 36.4%
Jorge Mateo: 25.5%
James McCann: 24.4%
Colton Cowser: 40.0%
