Expert Betting Tips

I'm taking a chance on the Pirates here. Oviedo's season has been full of highs and lows, but he's been on a roll as of late. Oviedo has allowed two runs in 11.0 innings while issuing eight walks. He needs to have a respectable showing here as well. On Tuesday, Pittsburgh's offence struggled against Eovaldi, and they ultimately lost. In the decisive game, Texas' bullpen will have had ample rest, making life even more difficult for the Pirates. It's possible that Pittsburgh can win this game if Oviedo gets off to a fast start.
