He was clubbed in his last outing against the New York Mets where he allowed five runs on seven hits across only four innings of work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Castellanos has feasted on Williams throughout his career, going 11-28 with two home runs and four doubles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He isn&#8217;t the only Philly slugger to have success against Williams as Bryce Harper is 3-9, Kyle Schwarber is 10-37 with four home runs and JT Realmuto 5-10 with three home runs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Castellanos will also have opportunities against a vulnerable bullpen that ranks 28th with a 5.13 ERA. This play checks all the boxes, making it worth a while for a plus money play despite the 2.5 line.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_41618\"  width=\"870\" height=\"489\"  data-origwidth=\"870\" data-origheight=\"489\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YNv_8x15Dqc?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=1&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;hl=en_US&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"MLB Picks and Predictions Today on the Power Five with Bryan Power {8-8-23}\"  src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/YNv_8x15Dqc\/maxresdefault.jpg\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div><span itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><meta itemprop=\"embedUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YNv_8x15Dqc\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"MLB Picks and Predictions Today on the Power Five with Bryan Power {8-8-23}\"><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"MLB picks and predictions are on the agenda on the August 8th edition of Power Five with Bryan Power, he breaks down MLB market movers, teams to buy and sell, a unique stat of the day, as well as a power play to take advantage of! #mlbpickstoday | #mlbpredictions | #mlbpicks 00:00 Introduction 01:10 Market Moves: Blue Jays vs Guardians Total 02:53 Sell High - Seattle Mariners 04:00 Buy Low Team - Arizona Diamondbacks 04:40 Stat of the Day - Orioles Record is WHAT in 2-Run Games? 06:17 Power Play of the Day - Braves vs Pirates MLB Card for Tuesday, August 8, 2023 4:05 PM ET Washington Nationals vs Philadelphia Phillies (Game 1) 6:40 PM ET Miami Marlins vs Cincinnati Reds 6:40 PM ET Minnesota Twins vs Detroit Tigers 6:40 PM ET St. Louis Cardinals vs Tampa Bay Rays 7:05 PM ET Houston Astros vs Baltimore Orioles 7:05 PM ET Atlanta Braves vs Pittsburgh Pirates 7:05 PM ET Washington Nationals vs Philadelphia Phillies (Game 2) 7:10 PM ET Chicago Cubs vs New York Mets 7:10 PM ET Kansas City Royals vs Boston Red Sox 7:10 PM ET Toronto Blue Jays vs Cleveland Guardians 8:10 PM ET Colorado Rockies vs Milwaukee Brewers 8:10 PM ET New York Yankees vs Chicago White Sox 9:38 PM ET San Francisco Giants vs Los Angeles Angels 9:40 PM ET Los Angeles Dodgers vs Arizona Diamondbacks 9:40 PM ET San Diego Padres vs Seattle Mariners 9:40 PM ET Texas Rangers vs Oakland Athletics Who is Bryan Power? 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\"><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/YNv_8x15Dqc\/0.jpg\"><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT7M8S\"><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2023-08-08T14:20:43Z\"><\/span>\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: Tommy Pham Under 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-115)<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Recently acquired Arizona Diamondbacks left fielder Tommy Pham is batting .257 on the season with 10 home runs and 37 RBI across 277 plate appearances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pham has struggled since joining the team, going 1-14 (.071) with no extra base hits and only one RBI across four games. He has now fallen short of 2+ Hits + Runs + RBI in 8 of his last 9 starts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Julio Urias is 8-6 on the season with a 4.69 ERA and 82 strikeouts across 86.1 innings of work. Urias faced the Diamondbacks during the opening week of the season, and he held them to two runs on four hits across six innings pitched.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pham has also struggled against Urias throughout his career, being held to 3-17 (.176) with only one home run and five strikeouts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He isn&#8217;t the only Diamondback slugger to struggle with Urias as Ketel Marte is 5-22 (.227), Christian Walker 4-21 (.190) and Corbin Carroll 0-2 (.000). On top of that, the Arizona lineup is in a major funk with only 15 combined runs scored across their last 8 games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Urias is coming into this outing with plenty of confidence after pitching six scoreless innings last time out. Pham has consistently had his issues hitting Urias and if he does get on base this lineup could easily leave hm stranded on base.<\/p>\n\n<h3>First Pitch | MLB Betting Preview for August 8<\/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 was clubbed in his last outing against the New York Mets where he allowed five runs on seven hits across only four innings of work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Castellanos has feasted on Williams throughout his career, going 11-28 with two home runs and four doubles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He isn't the only Philly slugger to have success against Williams as Bryce Harper is 3-9, Kyle Schwarber is 10-37 with four home runs and JT Realmuto 5-10 with three home runs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Castellanos will also have opportunities against a vulnerable bullpen that ranks 28th with a 5.13 ERA. This play checks all the boxes, making it worth a while for a plus money play despite the 2.5 line.<\/p>\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YNv_8x15Dqc&amp;feature=youtu.be\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: Tommy Pham Under 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (-115)<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Recently acquired Arizona Diamondbacks left fielder Tommy Pham is batting .257 on the season with 10 home runs and 37 RBI across 277 plate appearances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pham has struggled since joining the team, going 1-14 (.071) with no extra base hits and only one RBI across four games. He has now fallen short of 2+ Hits + Runs + RBI in 8 of his last 9 starts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Julio Urias is 8-6 on the season with a 4.69 ERA and 82 strikeouts across 86.1 innings of work. Urias faced the Diamondbacks during the opening week of the season, and he held them to two runs on four hits across six innings pitched.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pham has also struggled against Urias throughout his career, being held to 3-17 (.176) with only one home run and five strikeouts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He isn't the only Diamondback slugger to struggle with Urias as Ketel Marte is 5-22 (.227), Christian Walker 4-21 (.190) and Corbin Carroll 0-2 (.000). On top of that, the Arizona lineup is in a major funk with only 15 combined runs scored across their last 8 games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Urias is coming into this outing with plenty of confidence after pitching six scoreless innings last time out. Pham has consistently had his issues hitting Urias and if he does get on base this lineup could easily leave hm stranded on base.<\/p>\n\n<h3>First Pitch | MLB Betting Preview for August 8<\/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.
