AccuScore’s predictions are based on 10,000-plus simulations performed by the company’s computer. Throughout the baseball season, AccuScore will be stacking up its projections against Las Vegas odds and recommending wagers when value presents itself.
Colorado Rockies -120 (vs Arizona Diamondbacks)
Tyler Matzek vs Josh Collmenter
The heavy-hitting Rockies are undervalued at home vs. the Diamondbacks. We are expecting a firework display from the home team and a comfortable win. The bookmakers have set Colorado as -120 favorites, while our estimates put them to around -145. This is good value to be found on the better team and favorite.
Oakland Athletics +100 (@ Minnesota Twins)
Phil Hughes vs Jesse Hahn
We don’t have as much faith in the Twins as oddsmakers seem to. Oakland is an considered underdog by the betting market, but we have the Athletics winning 59.1 percent of the simulations. Jesse Hahn should have the upper hand over Phil Hughes, and Oakland batters are predicted to do well. You can’t look past the great value at +100, since we would put the line closer to -144.
