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\/FRHOEDHpJco\/0.jpg\"><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT7M59S\"><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2023-08-03T13:42:33Z\"><\/span>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert;\">Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Luke Weaver is in the midst of a brutal 2023 campaign where he is 2-3 with a 6.80 ERA and 67 strikeouts across 86 innings of work. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert;\">He has struggled against Bellinger throughout his career, allowing him to go 4-10 with two home runs and four RBI. The Cubs have already scored a staggering 42 runs in their last three games against the Reds including 20 run and 16 run performances in the last two games. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert;\">If the Cubs score 15+ runs Bellinger is a near lock to clear this total and he&#8217;s been on fire making the juice worth the squeeze. <\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert;\">Hitter Prop Prediction 2: Paul Goldschmidt Under 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (+100)<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Paul Goldschmidt is batting .277 on the season with 18 home runs and 56 RBI across 469 plate appearances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">However, he has hit a cold spell recently, falling short of this Hits + Runs + RBI total in his last two and 5 of his last 6 games. Goldschmidt is only 3-21 (.142) with no home runs and only one RBI during those six games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Sonny Gray is 4-4 on the season with a 3.22 ERA and 115 strikeouts across 117.1 innings pitched.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Gray and Goldschmidt are very familiar with one and other and Gray has gotten the better of him, holding him to an impressive 1-20 (.050) with no home runs and seven strikeouts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We are in the dog days of summer and Goldy is an on the back nine at 35 years old. The Cardinals also don&#8217;t have a ton of motivation considering they are sitting at dead last place in the NL Central. Look for Gray to continue his dominance over Goldschmidt and hold him under 1.5 HRR at a +100 price.<\/p>\n\n<h3>First Pitch | MLB Betting Preview for August 3<\/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.

On the season, he is hitting .316 with 16 home runs and 50 RBI across 322 plate appearances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Bellinger has continued this torrid pace in the first three games of his current series with the Cincinnati Reds, going 5-14 (.357) with a home run and 4 RBI while recording 2+ Hits + Runs + RBI in all three games. He has cleared 1.5 HRR in an impressive 50 of 77 games for a 65% success rate.<\/p>\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=FRHOEDHpJco\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert;\">Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Luke Weaver is in the midst of a brutal 2023 campaign where he is 2-3 with a 6.80 ERA and 67 strikeouts across 86 innings of work. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert;\">He has struggled against Bellinger throughout his career, allowing him to go 4-10 with two home runs and four RBI. The Cubs have already scored a staggering 42 runs in their last three games against the Reds including 20 run and 16 run performances in the last two games. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert;\">If the Cubs score 15+ runs Bellinger is a near lock to clear this total and he's been on fire making the juice worth the squeeze. <\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span style=\"color: revert; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: revert; font-weight: revert;\">Hitter Prop Prediction 2: Paul Goldschmidt Under 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (+100)<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Paul Goldschmidt is batting .277 on the season with 18 home runs and 56 RBI across 469 plate appearances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">However, he has hit a cold spell recently, falling short of this Hits + Runs + RBI total in his last two and 5 of his last 6 games. Goldschmidt is only 3-21 (.142) with no home runs and only one RBI during those six games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Sonny Gray is 4-4 on the season with a 3.22 ERA and 115 strikeouts across 117.1 innings pitched.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Gray and Goldschmidt are very familiar with one and other and Gray has gotten the better of him, holding him to an impressive 1-20 (.050) with no home runs and seven strikeouts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We are in the dog days of summer and Goldy is an on the back nine at 35 years old. The Cardinals also don't have a ton of motivation considering they are sitting at dead last place in the NL Central. Look for Gray to continue his dominance over Goldschmidt and hold him under 1.5 HRR at a +100 price.<\/p>\n\n<h3>First Pitch | MLB Betting Preview for August 3<\/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.
