With a full 15-game slate on the agenda, we asked the AI Model to help us find the best wagers on the MLB board. Here’s one of the three bets that we’ll be rocking with during tonight’s action, with the best MLB odds from the top sportsbooks.
The AI Model suggests Toronto and San Francisco will score only 6.8 runs in tonight’s game. With a former Cy Young pitcher on the mound, it totally makes sense. That said, the total for this game is set at 7.5. Therefore, the Under would be the best play per the AI Model.

MLB Pick: Under 7.5 (-110) at Caesars Sportsbook
Toronto Blue Jays vs. San Francisco Giants
Tuesday, July 09, 2024 – 09:45 PM ET at Oracle Park
All The Giants Do Is Strike Out!
The Giants will face Yusei Kikuchi of the Blue Jays tonight. He’s a lefty who has allowed a .242 ISO and wOBA of .387 to his last 99 batters.
However, Kikuchi has also struck out 27.3% of batters and has kept walks down to 8.1%. His ISO numbers don’t mean much if the Giants can’t hit.
That said, the Giants’ lineup has struck out 25.2% of the time against lefties over the last 30 days. Every batter in the lineup has struck out at least 19% of the time over the previous month against lefties.
Kikuchi should have success on the mound tonight.
Welcome Back, Blake Snell
Meanwhile, lefty Blake Snell will make his return to the mound. He’s been injured for most of the season but is in line to return tonight.
The lefty hasn’t been great this season, but he’s still added 26.1% of strikeouts. In addition, he’s facing a Blue Jays lineup that has only hit a .162 ISO and has struck out 23.1% of the time against lefties over the last 30 days.
MLB Computer Pick
I’ll trust the two high-strikeout lefties for tonight’s game. According to the AI model, let’s back the Under 7.5.
