After four days off, the MLB regular season is back in action. With 15 games on the slate, we asked the AI Model for some help to point out the best bets. Some of the bets might be shocking, but they also make sense. Here’s one of three bets to think about before playing at the top-rated sportsbooks.

MLB Pick
- Rockies ML (+143) at Caesars Sportsbook (check our Caesars Sportsbook Review)
San Francisco Giants vs. Colorado Rockies
Friday, July 19, 2024 – 08:40 PM ET at Coors Field
The AI Model believes the Rockies will add a 5.7-3.8 win over the Giants at home. The Rockies are +143 underdogs at Caesars Sportsbook, but the AI Model likes the Rockies so much that Colorado is expected to win by nearly two runs. We’ll absolutely want to bet on this.
Is Kyle Harrison With a High Moneyline Price?
The Giants will send out lefty Kyle Harrison for tonight’s opener. He’s a young starter who has allowed a .156 ISO and wOBA of .363 to his last 40 batters.
Harrison doesn’t add a high rate of strikeouts and has induced only 35.7% of ground balls over the last month. That’s not ideal going up against a Rockies lineup that has hit a .222 ISO against lefties over the last 30 days. Remember, the ISO numbers should be even better with the Rockies at home in Coors Field.
San Francisco’s Lineup Is Still Underwhelming
The Rockies will pitch Cal Quantril. Over the last 30 days, he’s added 44.6% of ground balls and allowed only 21.4% of fly balls, yet he still has an ISO of .311 and wOBA of .424.
Quantril won’t struggle as badly as he has if he continues to put up these stats.
The Pick
Like the AI Model, I also believe there is some value in the Rockies at +143. They’ll be as competitive and look better in many areas heading into this matchup.
