After spending the previous decade at Covers Experts, Bryan Power has wasted little time establishing himself here at WagerTalk. A consistent winner since first emerging on the scene back in 2011, Power didn\u2019t have a single losing calendar year in his first decade as a pro handicapper! In April &amp; May of this year (2022), he went on an amazing 154-99-2 (+$41,322) with all plays! October is when he truly made his mark at WT, at one point cashing 22 of 26 plays (85%). Power handicaps football (both NFL &amp; College), basketball (NBA &amp; College), MLB, Soccer (most major European leagues) and the UFC. He uses a personal set of power ratings, combined with situational handicapping to make his selections. Multiple bets per day, across multiple sports, are the norm. Client plays are rated 3%-5%. \ud83d\udc4d You can get free picks and betting tips direct from Vegas by following the WagerTalk handicappers on Twitter: \u25ba WagerTalk: https:\/\/twitter.com\/WagerTalk \u25ba Sportsmemo: https:\/\/twitter.com\/sportsmemo \u25ba GoldSheet: https:\/\/twitter.com\/thegoldsheet \u25ba Bryan Power: https:\/\/twitter.com\/bryanpower_wins \ud83d\udc4d Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to WagerTalk TV; \ud83d\udd14 CLICK the Bell and never miss an episode! \ud83d\udc40 WagerTalk TV, available for viewing on... \ud83d\udcfa Twitch: http:\/\/wt.buzz\/twitch \ud83e\udde0 More Free Sports Betting Picks and Tips: \ud83e\udd11 Free Sports Picks: https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/free-sports-picks \ud83d\udcca Live Odds: https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/odds \ud83d\uddde\ufe0f News: https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news \ud83d\udc4d Stay connected with WagerTalk \ud83d\udcfa YouTube: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/tv \ud83d\udc4d Facebook: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/fb \ud83d\udc26 Twitter: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/tw \ud83d\udcf8 Instagram: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/ig \ud83d\udcf0 Reddit: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/rd \u2764\ufe0f iHeart Radio: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/iheart \ud83c\udf4e Apple Podcasts: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/ap \ud83d\udccc Pinterest: https:\/\/wt.buzz\/pin #MLBPicksToday #MLBPicks #mlbpredictions #mlbpredictionstoday #baseballpicks\"><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/YGz8kXRtDOY\/0.jpg\"><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT9M53S\"><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2023-08-02T15:23:23Z\"><\/span>\n<p class=\"p1\">However, Mountcastle has feasted on Kikuchi, going 5-10 against him with four home runs and a double. Mountcastle generally bats second in the O&#8217;s lineup, and he isn&#8217;t the only Baltimore slugger to have success against Kikuchi, so there will be plenty of runs scoring and RBI opportunities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Orioles have scored 17 runs in their first two games in Toronto and I&#8217;m backing Mountcastle to continue his hot streak and clear 1.5 HRR.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">Hitter Prop Prediction 2: Adolis Garcia Over 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-110)<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Texas Rangers right fielder Adolis Garcia is quietly having one of the best power hitting seasons in the majors with a .843 OPS, 28 home runs and 85 RBI across 443 plate appearances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Garcia has only eclipsed 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBI in 2 of his last 5 games but has landed on one exactly in the other three games and in 53% of the games on the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He has also been a White Sox killer, clearing this total in all four head-to-head matchups while going 5-16 (.313) with two home runs, three doubles and three RBI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pale Hose starting pitcher Dylan Cease avoided being dealt at the deadline and is 4-4 on the season with a 4.15 ERA and 143 strikeouts across 119.1 innings pitched. However, Cease has struggled with Garcia, allowing him to go 3-11 with a home run, double and two RBI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Garcia has also had success against multiple Chicago relievers, and they just traded away three key bullpen arms in Kendall Graveman, Joe Kelly and Reynaldo Lopez.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He also loves home cooking with a .288 batting average and 17 home runs compared to only a .231 batting average and 9 home runs on the road in one less at-bat. Everything lines up perfectly for Garcia to clear 1.5 HRR at a reasonable price of -110.<\/p>\n\n<h3>First Pitch | MLB Betting Preview for August 2<\/h3>\nJoin Drew Martin and a rotating panel of guests for First Pitch as we break down the daily baseball slate from a betting perspective every weekday at 1:45pm ET \/ 10:45am PT for First Pitch discussing the MLB betting slate.

He has recorded 2+ Hits + Runs + RBI in his last three games and 6 of his last 8 games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Yusei Kikuchi is having the best season of his career with an 8-3 record, 3.79 ERA and 116 strikeouts across 109.1 innings of work.<\/p>\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YGz8kXRtDOY\n<p class=\"p1\">However, Mountcastle has feasted on Kikuchi, going 5-10 against him with four home runs and a double. Mountcastle generally bats second in the O's lineup, and he isn't the only Baltimore slugger to have success against Kikuchi, so there will be plenty of runs scoring and RBI opportunities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Orioles have scored 17 runs in their first two games in Toronto and I'm backing Mountcastle to continue his hot streak and clear 1.5 HRR.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">Hitter Prop Prediction 2: Adolis Garcia Over 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-110)<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Texas Rangers right fielder Adolis Garcia is quietly having one of the best power hitting seasons in the majors with a .843 OPS, 28 home runs and 85 RBI across 443 plate appearances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Garcia has only eclipsed 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBI in 2 of his last 5 games but has landed on one exactly in the other three games and in 53% of the games on the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He has also been a White Sox killer, clearing this total in all four head-to-head matchups while going 5-16 (.313) with two home runs, three doubles and three RBI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pale Hose starting pitcher Dylan Cease avoided being dealt at the deadline and is 4-4 on the season with a 4.15 ERA and 143 strikeouts across 119.1 innings pitched. However, Cease has struggled with Garcia, allowing him to go 3-11 with a home run, double and two RBI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Garcia has also had success against multiple Chicago relievers, and they just traded away three key bullpen arms in Kendall Graveman, Joe Kelly and Reynaldo Lopez.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He also loves home cooking with a .288 batting average and 17 home runs compared to only a .231 batting average and 9 home runs on the road in one less at-bat. Everything lines up perfectly for Garcia to clear 1.5 HRR at a reasonable price of -110.<\/p>\n\n<h3>First Pitch | MLB Betting Preview for August 2<\/h3>\nJoin Drew Martin and a rotating panel of guests for First Pitch as we break down the daily baseball slate from a betting perspective every weekday at 1:45pm ET \/ 10:45am PT for First Pitch discussing the MLB betting slate.
