⚾️ Totals Under 8.5 in New York Mets vs. San Francisco Giants

📝 Pick Preview:
I’m expecting a low‑scoring grindfest at Oracle Park tonight, with wind in and both bullpens on tight. The Mets offense has been ice‑cold away, plating just two runs in the last two games on the road. On the other side, the Giants starters have been eating innings but likely won’t go deep enough to blow it open. Both teams rank top‑10 in bullpen ERA, so we’re expecting a lot of quick hooks and mid‑inning relief. Yesterday’s opener leaned under as both lineups struggled against breaking pitches. With the weather conditions holding well and the skippers favoring matchup arms, I’m comfortable banking on a sub‑9 total. Under 8.5 seems like the right play for a pitchers’ duel that won’t break out into an offensive slugfest.

⚾️ Under 8.5 Total Runs in Cubs vs. Brewers

📝 Pick Preview:
Matthew Boyd has quietly been one of the toughest southpaws in baseball, sporting a 2.20 ERA and sub‑1.05 WHIP across more than 110 innings, and he’s surrendered two earned runs or fewer in five of his last six outings. Opposing him is rookie Jacob Misiorowski, who’s electric but is still riding a pitch count in his 40+ innings this season. Neither bullpen here inspires tons of confidence if things slide sideways, so both squads have leaned on starter duels and small ball to eke out wins. The Brewers lineup has cooled off since the break, averaging under four runs per game in July, and American Family Field hasn’t been a fireworks show early on. With two bell‑cow arms on the bump and middling offenses at the plate, this one’s got “low‑scoring” written all over it. Expect the run total to stay buried under nine by the time you’re grabbing your post‑game coffee.
