MLB | Aug 16, 2026 Mariners vs Astros |
Astros -116 at Draft Kings |
Lost $116.0 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units I’m on the Astros in this one. It was encouraging to see Bryan Woo have a decent road start for once, but I’m still not buying it after one good outing in all honesty. The Astros are still the better team playing better baseball over the last couple of months and I look for them to show up in this game and win the series to take another step in creating distance in the AL West race. Give me Houston. |

MLB | Aug 16, 2026 White Sox vs Tigers |
White Sox +101 at Draft Kings |
Won $101 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units Chicago comes into this matchup looking to complete the sweep, but they have allowed at least five runs in three of their last five. The White Sox are 27-34 on the road this year, while the Tigers are 32-30 at home. Detroit has dropped three of their last four games and they really need a win in this contest. The Tigers are starting Anderson, who has allowed three earned runs in his last 12.0 innings, while Burke has allowed two earned runs or fewer in five straight outings. Take the White Sox here. |

MLB | Aug 16, 2026 Orioles vs Rays |
Orioles +131 at Draft Kings |
Won $131 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units Baltimore starting pitcher Trevor Rogers arrives at this contest in good form, allowing two earned runs or fewer in eight of his last nine starts made in 2026. Conversely, Tampa Bay hurler Freddy Peralta has struggled recently, allowing seven earned runs or more in two of his last four starts made this season. With that said, I am backing the Baltimore Orioles |

MLB | Aug 16, 2026 Brewers vs Dodgers |
Brewers +167 at Ace |
Won $167 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
Rating: 2 Units The Dodgers are going to be favored because they’re the Dodgers, they’re at home, and Skubal is on the mound. I get it. However, the Brewers are legit contenders and are a tough team to turn down in the underdog role. It’s that simple. Also, Henderson has been strong in his own right with a 2.88 ERA and 0.91 WHIP. I’m going to side with the Brewers and the plus money every chance I get, as they’re one of the best teams in baseball. |
