Oakland over Toronto

1:37 PM EST. Chris Bassitt (RHP - TOR) pitches better than his expected stats, and does it with aplomb. His pinpoint control is cemented in his profile and his skills have been firmly above average for a while. He consistently avoids hard contact but the risk here is durability, as he's on the first back-to-back 180+ IP run of his career and fatigue may be setting in. Bassitt has a 5.96 ERA over his last five games and his groundball rate is decreasing. The Blue Jays are a hit and miss bunch that are absolutely overpriced here.

Is JP Sears (LHP - OAK) turning into a second-half breakout candidate? He owns a 2.72 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, 24% K%, 20% K-BB%, and a 3.51 xERA over his last six games started and is also coming off of back-to-back gems. In what is essentially a 50/50 proposition, give us the plus money on the A’s and let the chips fall where they may.

Pinnacle takes some of the lowest fees on all users’ bets, meaning it’s able to offer some of the best value odds on the market. Compared to other major, well-known sportsbooks, Pinnacle offers superior average odds pricing. Pinnacle’s low betting margins and high betting limits is the best in the biz and will save you thousands of dollars over your betting life.

For instance, a baseball game at most sportsbooks has 20 to 25 cent margins

Arizona     -150

Detroit      +125

That’s a 25 cent margin but at Pinnacle, it’ll be an 9 cent margin (see example)

Arizona       -145

Detroit    +134

If you bet on sports daily, Pinnacle is a must have because of their low margins.
