MLB Expert Picks for Sunday, April 28

Our VI baseball betting experts have compiled their MLB picks for Sunday, April 28 and they're focusing on the matchups below:

Diamondbacks vs Mariners Free Picks

Diamondbacks @ Mariners Under 7.5 Total Runs (-114)

Logan Gilbert has a 1.87 ERA so far this year. Gilbert is a guy I feel is quite underrated. He pounds the strike zone and does a pretty good job inducing soft contact.

Gilbert has a good track record against the Diamondbacks in a small sample size. He has a 1.049 WHIP in the first half of the season in his career. He has been slightly better in day games than night games as well.

Brandon Pfaadt is a mediocre right-handed pitcher. This is a pitcher's park though, and the Mariners offense hasn't been very good.

The Diamondbacks offense is far better against lefties than right-handed pitching.

Bill Miller is a top two or three under umpire in all of baseball. He consistently has a very high strikeout/walk ratio and his strikes called percentage in general is always high.

Take the under here.

Cubs vs Red Sox Free Picks

Boston Red Sox Moneyline (-125)

The Red Sox have won seven, or 63.6%, of the 11 games they've played as favorites this season.

Boston has a record of 5-1 record when favored by -127 or more on the opening line by oddsmakers this season and once again look like viable favs to back.

The Red Sox smashed the Cubs yesterday by a 17-0 count and now with momentum on their side, I'm betting on them cashing again tonight.

MLB Home teams when the money line is +125 to -125 (BOSTON) - after a game where they had 20 or more hits, with a tired bullpen - throwing 9+ innings over the last 2 games are 26-7 L/27 seasons for a 79% conversion rate for bettors.

MLB Road teams when the money line is +125 to -125 (CHICAGO CUBS) - revenging a loss vs opponent as a road favorite, a top-level team 62% or better) playing a team with a winning record are 11-28 L/5 seasons for a go against 72% conversion rate for bettors.

Free MLB Money Line Picks

Looking for a straight up winner? The Vegas Insider MLB Money Line Picks focuses on just picking the winner. It's as simple as that and knowing that there's no clock in baseball, your wagers are never losers until the final out is punched. Our Free MLB Money Line Picks are known for their value, especially when our stable of experts lay into some live underdogs. 

Free MLB Run-Line Picks

Run-Line Picks is MLB can be viewed as ATS or Against the Spread Picks since a spread or in this case, a run-line is involved. Oddsmakers always open run-line spreads as -1.5 or +1.5 and then there is money associated with each run-line spread. Instead of backing a heavy money-line favorite, bettors have the option to back that team to win by two or more runs at a lower price. When taking the underdog at the +1.5 price, your wager can still lose the game outright but if it stays within the spread (1.5) then you'll be okay. Our MLB Run Line Free Picks will feature a selection either on the favorite or the underdog and will include betting analysis on how to lay or take the points. 

Free MLB Over Under Totals Picks

If you’re undecided on MLB ML or MLB Run Line Free Picks, you must be a Totals bettor and our Free MLB Over Under Totals Picks allow you to cheer for either a slugfest at the ballpark or a great pitching battle. Everybody loves the longball and cheering for an Over is much more fun but that doesn’t prevent our experts from playing the Under in our Free MLB Picks page and look for strikeouts. All selections featured in the MLB Over Under Totals Picks include betting analysis and tips on how to find the best markets.
