2016 MLB Betting Tips: Cardinals v Pirates + Sep. 6th Games

September 5th 2016, 11:21am, By: CrossRoads

Another big day of Baseball coming up as we offer MLB betting tips for games on September 6th including the massive Cardinals vs Pirates game!

St Louis Cardinals at Pittsburgh Pirates (Tuesday 6:05am)

The first of three games sees the Cardinals face off against the Pirates at PNC Park in Pittsburgh. Both teams are coming into this game with multiple losses.

Cardinals sitting 70-64 are just inside the wild card position, but certainly needs to find something after the Reds expose them in the previous series. The Cardinals are running with 22 games straight with a home run which shows that their offensive game is still strong.

Pirate pitcher Chad Kuhl will start Tuesday morning and will have to be better than his last game to stop a Pittsburgh’s five game losing streak. Pirates just have to find ways to score. Sundays game against the Brewers saw the Pirates go 1 for 9 with runners in scoring positions.

Tip: Pittsburgh Pirates to win - $2.02 at CrownBet

 

Texas Rangers at Seattle mariners (Tuesday 6:10am)

Earlier last week the Rangers won 3-0 against Seattle. Since the last game of that series the Rangers are showing why they are number one in the league. They are lighting it up with the bat. In the previous three games Texas have scored more than 10 home runs and are on a seven game winning streak. Seattle are still a chance to secure a wildcard position but aren’t doing much justice with a 2-8 in last 10 games.

Tip: Texas Rangers and Over 7.5 - $3.55 at CrownBet

 

Houston Astros vs. Cleveland Indians (Tuesday 9:10am)

Astros bring Pitcher Mike Fiers into the mix against the Indians. He will have his work cut out with Cleveland on a five game winning streak and just like Texas are hard to beat right now. Astros need help from their pitchers they are ranked 24th in hits allowed this season.

Indians still lead the AL Central Division and like all the top teams, having great pitching equals success.

Tip: Cleveland Indians to win -  $1.80 at CrownBet

 

Arizona D-Backs at L.A Dodgers (Tuesday 10:10am)

Kenta Maeda starts on a 13-8 record, challenging a team who is no chance of making the world series playoffs. Maeda put in five innings and allowed only two earned runs in his last outing. Dodgers have one of the best records at home with a 43-27 record.

D- backs start ex-dodger Zack Greinke who will start for his first time back in LA.

Tip: LA Dodgers and Over 6.5 - $2.76 at CrownBet
