Sharp MLB Picks for Thursday: 4 Best MLB Bets for September 1, Including Dodgers vs. Mets

We’re back at it again this Thursday with 4 sharp MLB picks. Yesterday we went 2-2, which was disappointing. However, we broke even and still have not had a losing day. As always, we will be using the OddsJam betting tools to aid us in our betting selections! Let’s get into it.

Kansas City Royals vs. Chicago White Sox

2:10 p.m. ET

Fun fact, in his last 10 games, Johhny Cueto has only gone over 4.5 Ks twice. Another fun fact, Cueto’s K line is set at 4.5 today. I smell a Positive EV play! We’re getting massive value when comparing against DraftKings, one of the sharper books when it comes to K props.

Royals vs. White Sox Pick: Johnny Cueto Under 4.5 Ks | -142 at FanDuel

Los Angeles Dodgers vs. New York Mets

4:10 p.m. ET

We’ve got another good game to watch tonight in this specific series. This time, Clayton Kershaw takes on Chris Bassitt. While Bassitt is a good pitcher in his own right, he is no Jacob deGrom and, respectfully, deGrom is the reason the Mets won last night. There is no deGrom tonight and I expect the Dodgers to take their revenge.

Texas Rangers vs. Boston Red Sox

7:10 p.m. ET

The analysis on this one is really simple. The Boston Red Sox are the better team over the Texas Rangers. There is a 65% chance the Red Sox win outright and a 62% chance they win the 1st half. OddsJam agrees, let’s hammer this!

Rangers vs. Red Sox Pick: Boston Red Sox 1st Half Moneyline | -165 at BetMGM

Milwaukee Brewers vs. Arizona Diamondbacks

9:40 p.m. ET

Let’s copy and paste the analysis above into this pick too. There’s not a lot to think about. The clearly better team has a very solid Positive EV line. If we bet these types of lines consistently, we’re going to be in the money.
