Transcript
00:00Welcome to the BetQL Daily Boost. I'm Lucy Burge of BetQL and I'm joined by Matt Horner
00:09and we have an odds boost for you for today on Major League Baseball and it is on the
00:15Twins to win and Royce Lewis to hit a home run and this is boosted to plus 600 at Caesars.
00:21What do you think of this boost Matt? Yeah, I don't mind this plus 600. My best bet, full
00:26disclosure is the opposite side of the Twins winning in this game. I'm taking the opposite
00:31side, but at the same time, my reasoning is kind of that the game is 50-50 and I like
00:36the plus money, but the Twins can certainly win. There's no doubt about that. Royce Lewis
00:40has been on fire. He's actually one of the better players in baseball that you've never
00:43heard of because the guy is constantly on the injured list. He like never plays, but
00:48right now he's playing, which is good for the Twins, obviously. So yeah, I don't mind
00:52this at all. Plus 600. If you want to put a little sprinkle in that, don't mind it.
00:56Very nice. Get in on this odds boost plus 600 at Caesars and take advantage of our offer

01:25bets for today. As you mentioned, Matt, mine is in the Red Sox game. It is Raphael Devers
01:30to have over one and a half total bases. This will be up against the Orioles after a devastating
01:35loss for the Red Sox last night. Could not believe my eyes when they blew that lead.
01:39I genuinely was like, are you kidding? Are you kidding me? So I think that they could
01:45bounce back tonight perhaps, but even if they don't win, I think Devers will go over one
01:49and a half bases. He has gone over this in six of his last 11 games with a home run and
01:54five doubles in that time span. And again, Zach Eflin, he is batting for 62 with two
01:59home runs, three doubles and a single. So I like his chances to go over one and a half
02:04total bases tonight. Yeah, well, let me tell you one Soto over one and a half total bases
02:09yesterday. It was about the easiest cash in history that happened automatically against
02:15the White Sox. That was so easy. God, the White Sox are just so awful. It's just so
02:20painful. So, yeah, the Oakland A's, they were terrible for us yesterday.
02:25Brent Rooker was ruled out and it was just a disaster. So let's see if we can bounce
02:30back today. Like I said, I'm going with the Texas Rangers against the Twins tonight.
02:34They're at plus money, but honestly, I feel this game's a little bit of a toss up.
02:37That's why I'm taking the plus money, because I think it can go either way.
02:41Bailey over is on the mound tonight for the Twins over. He is pretty much an above average
02:47starter. I like his numbers. Three fifty two era three thirty five expected a three seventy
02:51nine expected fifth. He's an above average. He's been great. The Rangers bats have been
02:57heating up lately, though they are still bad against right handers.
03:01They have a ninety three WRC plus as a team, but that's up from eighty eight over the past
03:05week. So they've been starting to be on fire against right handed pitching as of late.
03:09On the other side, Cody Bradford, a left hander, is going for the Rangers, somebody
03:13maybe nobody's ever heard of. But at the same time, he's actually been really good this
03:17year. He's four. No, he has a three sixty era. And a lot of times these guys you never
03:20heard of that good areas are like, oh, man, yeah, they're just they've just been getting
03:24lucky. He's actually been good. He has a three thirty expected era and a three fifty eight
03:28expected fifth. So he's been quite good. Low sixty seven percent strand rate as well.
03:33Little worried about his two fifty Babbitt, which is really low and a one twenty home
03:37run through nine. Right. But overall, the pros outweigh the cons with him. The twins
03:41are really good against lefties. One eleven WRC plus. But they've been going the opposite
03:45direction lately. They were one thirteen. Now they're down to one eleven and they've
03:49been going down. Carlos Correa is out of the lineup. Byron Buxton is also injured. Now
03:54the twins just have so many injuries all the time. It's ridiculous for their offense.
03:57Minnesota does have the better bullpen, but Texas has the better defense. Texas defense
04:02is really good. Their tenth and defensive run save first and outs above average. They're
04:06fantastic. And overall tonight, I just see this as kind of an even matchup with the two
04:11starters on the mound. Texas with better defense, Minnesota with a better bullpen. But I'm going
04:15to back the starter that has positive regression coming and I'm going to back the offense that
04:20has been going in the right direction instead of the the downward direction here, I guess
04:24you would say. So give me the Rangers first five money line and full game money line.
04:30It's a game parlay over draft Kings. It's plus one eighty. You can play these separately
04:34if you want. You don't have to play the parlay, but I just like the Rangers night,
04:37first five and on the full game money line. Very nice. I love that. Get in on this Oz
