<p>The New York Mets face off against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the third clash of a four-game series at Dodger Stadium in LA, so we’ve prepared the best betting pick and odds for this National League showdown set for Saturday, August 21, with the first pitch at 4:05 PM ET.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The Dodgers swept a three-game road set against the Mets last week. They opened this four-game set with a 4-1 victory as -205 home favorites, and the reigning champs are listed at -265 moneyline odds for Saturday’s clash on <a href="https://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/mybookie/">MyBookie Sportsbook</a> (the second game of the series has been excluded from the analysis).&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>The Mets are losing the pace in the NL East</strong></h2>



<p>The New York Mets fell to 60-61 on the season following that 4-1 defeat at Dodger Stadium. It was their sixth loss in the previous seven outings, and the Mets have won only nine of their first 13 games played in August.</p>



<p>Hereof, the Mets were five games behind the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves on Friday. New York’s playoff hopes are slowly fading away, as the Mets have registered a disappointing 4.66 ERA over the last two weeks while posting a lousy .226/.284/.349 batting line.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://twitter.com/Mets/status/1428787777332826115
</div></figure>



<p>Rich Hill will toe the rubber Saturday in LA, and the 41-year-old lefty got five no-decisions in five outings with the Mets since the trade deadline. During that stretch, he’s recorded a 4.98 ERA and a 14/7 K/BB ratio across 21.2 innings of work.</p>



<p>Hill is 6-4 with a 4.08 ERA and 1.20 WHIP in 23 starts and one relief appearance in 2021 (19 starts with Tampa Bay). He hasn’t met the Dodgers since 2007.</p>



<h2><strong>The Dodgers are cutting the deficit in the NL West</strong></h2>



<p>The Los Angeles Dodgers continue to chase the San Francisco Giants and were just 2.5 games behind the NL West leaders on Friday. They’ve won 13 of their first 16 games in August while posting the lowest ERA in baseball (1.97) to go with a shiny .183 batting average against.</p>



<p>The Dodgers are doing a good job at the plate as well. They’ve scored 71 runs over the last 13 games, and in the last 15 days of action, the Dodgers’ OPS of .811 is the seventh-best in the majors.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://twitter.com/DodgerInsider/status/1428608079508037634
</div></figure>



<p>Max Scherzer will get the nod Saturday, his fourth since he joined the reigning champs from Washington. The three-time Cy Young Award winner has gone 2-0 with a 2.20 ERA through that span, and he’s now 10-4 with a 2.69 ERA and 0.89 WHIP in 22 starts this season.</p>



<p>Scherzer is 13-5 with a 2.71 ERA in 24 career starts and one relief appearance against the Mets. He met them once in 2021 and took a win after tossing six frames of a two-run ball.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>NY Mets:</strong></p>



<ul><li>6-15 in the last 21 games overall</li><li>4-22 in the last 26 games against the Dodgers&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul>



<p><strong>LA Dodgers:</strong></p>



<ul><li>11-1 in the last 12 games overall&nbsp;</li><li>10-3 in the last 13 home games against the Mets</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-new-york-mets-vs-los-angeles-dodgers-pick"><strong>New York Mets vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Pick</strong></h2>



<p>Max Scherzer has allowed a .179/.223/.322 triple-slash in 184 at-bats to the current Mets. They know each other very well, and the Dodgers certainly have a huge advantage over the Mets. Not to mention the Dodgers bullpen that boasts a 1.82 ERA and 2.45 FIP in August.</p>



<p>The Mets have struggled mightily at the dish all season, and the last couple of weeks have been a disaster as well. The odds are not tempting, but the Dodgers should come out on top easily. They are only 3-5 against the spread in the last eight outings.</p>





<p></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>Considering the Mets’ offensive woes and the Dodgers’ mighty pitching, we shouldn’t expect to see a bunch of runs. Last week, just one of their three encounters produced runs in single digits, but the Dodgers beat the Mets 6-5 in the opener in ten innings.</p>



<p>It's a tough wager because of an 8.5-run line, but the Mets will have a difficult time at the plate. Hopefully, their pitching staff will put on a solid performance. The Mets bullpen has a 4.39 ERA and 4.40 FIP in August, while the current Dodgers have a .701 OPS in 37 at-bats against Rich Hill.</p>

<p>Week 7 Sunday Night Football will see the Indianapolis Colts and San Francisco 49ers lock horns for the first time since 2017. Indy searches for its fifth consecutive victory over San Francisco, so we’re taking a closer look at this interconference showdown to get you the best Colts vs. 49ers betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>The Colts head to Levi’s Stadium as 4-point underdogs on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bookmaker/">Bookmaker Sportsbook</a>. The Niners are -195 moneyline favorites with a total of 43.0 runs.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>Indianapolis trounced Houston to get back on the right track</h2>



<p>The Indianapolis Colts (2-4; 4-2 ATS) are coming off a 31-3 home victory to the Houston Texans this past Sunday. It was their second win in the last three outings along with a heart-breaking 31-25 overtime loss at the Baltimore Ravens.</p>



<p>The Colts had an easy job against the hapless Texans. They picked off Davis Mills twice while racking up 174 rushing yards (6.7 per carry). Jonathan Taylor went off for 145 yards and a couple of touchdowns on just 14 carries, whilst Carson Wentz completed 11 of his 20 passing attempts for 223 yards and two scores.</p>



<p>After a 0-3 start on the season, the Colts are back in the playoff chase. They are tallying 23.2 points per contest (19<sup>th </sup>in the league) on 124.2 rushing yards (11<sup>th</sup>) and 243.3 passing yards (15<sup>th</sup>). Indianapolis surrenders 21.8 points in a return (11<sup>th</sup>) on 111.0 rushing yards (14<sup>th</sup>) and 255.5 passing yards (20<sup>th</sup>).</p>



<h2>San Francisco lost three straight contests</h2>



<p>The San Francisco 49ers (2-3; 1-4 ATS) are coming off a bye and will start Jimmy Garoppolo under center. Garoppolo sat out Week 5 and a 17-10 defeat at the Arizona Cardinals, while rookie Trey Lance went 15-of-29 for 192 yards and an interception in his first start.</p>



<p>Lance also had 16 carries for 89 yards, leading the way for the injury-depleted San Francisco backfield. RB JaMycal Hasty will return for Sunday’s clash against the Colts, but Lance won’t be available due to a knee injury. Tackle Trent Williams is doubtful to play which is another problem for the Niners’ offense that already misses TE George Kittle, RB Raheem Mostert, and RB Jeff Wilson.&nbsp;</p>



<p>San Francisco ranks 17<sup>th</sup> in the league in points scored per game (23.4) and 12<sup>th</sup> in rushing yards (12<sup>th</sup>). Garoppolo hasn’t impressed through his four appearances this season, tossing for 925 yards, five touchdowns, and a couple of picks.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Indianapolis:</strong></p>



<ul><li>4-1 ATS in the last five games overall</li><li>6-1 ATS in the last seven games against the NFC</li><li>5-2 ATS in the last seven games against San Francisco&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul>



<p><strong>San Francisco:</strong></p>



<ul><li>1-4 ATS in the last five games overall</li><li>1-6 ATS in the last seven games played in Week 7&nbsp;</li><li>2-8 ATS in the last ten games at home</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-indianapolis-colts-vs-san-francisco-49ers-pick">Indianapolis Colts vs. San Francisco 49ers Pick</h2>



<p>This is a big game for both teams, so I’m expecting a hard-fought battle. Hereof, with four points on the table, I have to take the underdogs. I would feel more comfortable with a 7-point spread, so if you’re satisfied with slightly lower wages, buy a few points and go with the Colts.</p>



<p>We should see a back-and-forth battle between a couple of run-heavy teams. I would be surprised if someone wins by a comfortable margin. Four points are a tricky spread, and we all saw what happened with the Colts in Baltimore.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Indianapolis Colts +4.0 at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>I’ve mentioned the Colts’ defensive stats, and the Niners’ numbers are similar. San Francisco allows 23.8 points on 113.2 rushing yards and 216.6 passing yards. Both teams are capable of playing tough defense and love to run the ball, so we shouldn’t see a firecracker.</p>



<p>On the other hand, the line is set pretty low, and I can see this clash finishing 24-21 or 23-20. The totals look like a tricky wager, and I’ll take the over only because of a possible dramatic finish. The over is 5-1 in the Colts’ last six outings on the road, and it is 4-2 in the Niners’ last six showings at home.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go over 43.0 points at -110</strong></p>

<p>The NFL action continues with Week 8 games on Sunday, October 30, and this inter-conference duel is among them, so make sure you read the best Dolphins vs. Lions betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>Detroit is hoping to avoid the fifth loss in a row when they host Miami at Ford Field. The Dolphins are -3.5 favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bookmaker/">BookMaker Sportsbook</a>, while the total is set at 51.5 points. These inter-conference rivals haven’t met since 2018.</p>



<p><strong>Dolphins returned to winning ways with the return of Tua Tagovailoa</strong></p>



<p>The Miami Dolphins (4-3-0, 3-4-0 ATS) snapped a three-game losing skid with a 16-10 home victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Tua Tagovailoa returned from his head injury and immediately led his team to a W, even though it wasn’t anything flashy and impressive. All the points were scored in the first half, and perhaps the Steelers had a chance to win, but their rookie QB Kenny Pickett threw three interceptions.</p>



<p>Tua Tagovailoa completed 21 of 35 passes for 261 yards and one touchdown. Although he has some top receivers to work with, Tagovailoa threw his lone TD pass to running back Raheem Mostert, who also posted a game-high 79 rushing yards on 16 carries. Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill combined for 160 yards on 11 receptions (18 targets). On defense, Andrew Van Ginkel was rock solid with a game-high 11 tackles.</p>



<p>DE Trey Flowers has hit the injured reserve list with a foot injury, and he will miss an extended period. DE Emmanuel Ogbah (back), CB Xavien Howard (groin), QB Skylar Thompson (thumb), and S Clayton Fejedelem (groin) are questionable to feature on Sunday against Detroit.</p>



<p><strong>Lions lost four consecutive games</strong></p>



<p>The Detroit Lions (1-5-0, 3-3-0 ATS) lost four games in a row, and in the last two, they scored just six points. After failing to score in a loss against the New England Patriots, the Lions scored six in a 24-6 defeat to the Dallas Cowboys on the road. Detroit was pretty tied with Dallas when it comes to total yards and first downs, but they committed even five turnovers opposite the Cowboys’ one.</p>



<p>Jared Goff completed 21 of 26 passes for 228 yards and two touchdowns. He also had two lost fumbles, and the Lions couldn’t get a better result in Dallas mainly because of Goff’s mistakes. Kalif Raymond registered a game-high 75 yards on five receptions, while Jamaal Williams had 79 rushing yards on 15 attempts. Defensively, Jeff Okudah displayed a great performance with game-high 15 tackles.</p>



<p>WR DJ Chark Jr. has been entered on the injured reserve list with an ankle injury, and it is unknown when he will return to the lineup. DE Charles Harris (groin), S DeShon Elliott (finger), and G Jonah Jackson (neck) are questionable to play on Sunday against Miami.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Miami:</strong></p>



<ul><li>8-3 ATS in the last 11 games following a straight-up win</li><li>7-3 ATS in the last ten games after allowing less than 15 points in their previous game</li></ul>



<p><strong>Detroit:</strong></p>



<ul><li>0-9 ATS in the last nine games in Week 8</li><li>0-4 ATS in the last four games in October</li></ul>



<p><strong>Miami Dolphins vs. Detroit Lions Pick&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>Although the Dolphins haven’t impressed in their latest win over Pittsburgh, I expect them to win here without much trouble. Detroit has the worst defense in the NFL that allows 32.3 points per game, while the Lions’ secondary is surrendering almost 250 yards per game to the opposing receivers. Miami has a couple of top wideouts in Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, and I am backing them to slice Detroit’s secondary open in this one. Tua Tagovailoa should be even better in the second game after returning from a head injury, so I am going with the visitors.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Take the Dolphins at -3.5 (-110)</p>



<p><strong>The Total</strong></p>



<p>Miami is neglecting its run offense and with a very big reason. The Dolphins have excellent receivers and a running back who can serve as a receiver as well, while their quarterback is a strong passer. Miami is averaging 281.6 passing yards per game, which is the third-best pass offense in the league. On the other hand, Detroit is in the top 10 in both pass and run offenses, and I expect to see plenty of points here. Over is 6-2 in the Lions’ last eight games overall, while Over is 19-7 in Detroit’s previous 26 home games.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Go Over 51.5 points (-110)</p>

Major League Baseball (MLB) might not be the most popular sport in the world to wager on, but it still presents a really good betting option. MLB betting comes in many different forms, and this is a season that presents plenty of betting opportunities as well.

Major League Baseball was founded all the way back in 1876, but the league has obviously gone through some major changes since that time. Most of the major rules are still in place, but the way that the game is played is now much different.

There are currently 30 teams in MLB, and every team plays 162 games during the regular season. MLB games typically start at the end of March, or early April, and the World Series wraps up during the first week of November.

MLB teams are split up into leagues and divisions, but there is now more crossover games than ever before. The American League and National League now operate under the same basic rules, and that keeps things similar regardless of what league you are looking at.

Knowing the best MLB betting sites &amp; sportsbooks is also important if you plan to bet on MLB, and this article will explore that as well. By the time you are done reading this article, you should be ready to bet on baseball.

It was one of the Jazz’s best defensive displays this season as they limited the visitors to 44.7% from the field and kept the Hornets to miserable two three-pointers on 16 attempts (12.5%), making 16 triples on the other end. Utah will take a little break from a homestay; the Jazz spent the last three at home and after this duel in Portland, will return for another five games at Vivint Smart Home Arena.</p>



<p>Lauri Markkanen led the Jazz with a double-double of 25 points and game-high 11 rebounds. Jordan Clarkson scored 18 points, Mike Conley added 14, Walker Kessler contributed 13 points and nine boards, and Collin Sexton scored 11 points.</p>



<p>C Kelly Olynyk (ankle) is out indefinitely and will not play against Portland on Wednesday.</p>



<p><strong>Trail Blazers destroyed the Spurs in Portland</strong></p>



<p>The Portland Trail Blazers (22-25, 25-22-0 ATS) managed to avoid the fourth consecutive defeat with a blowout 147-127 home win over the San Antonio Spurs. The Blazers scored a season-high 147 points, including 40+ points in the first and third quarters. Portland was great from the floor, shooting 59.8%, while the hosts hit 20 triples opposite San Antonio’s 13. The Blazers are currently on a six-game home stand, and after this game against Utah, they will meet the Raptors and Hawks.</p>



<p>Damian Lillard led Portland to this massive win with a double-double of 37 points and game-high 12 assists. Anfernee Simons scored 26 points, Jusuf Nurkic posted a double-double of 27 points and game-high 11 rebounds along with seven dimes and game-high three steals, while Shaedon Sharpe chipped in 19 points.</p>



<p>SF/PF Justise Winslow (ankle) is out indefinitely and is not going to feature on Wednesday against the Jazz.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Utah:</strong></p>



<p>N/A</p>



<p><strong>Portland:</strong></p>



<ul><li>9-4 ATS in the last 13 home games</li><li>5-2 ATS in the last seven home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400</li></ul>



<p><strong>Utah Jazz vs. Portland Trail Blazers Pick</strong></p>



<p>Both Utah and Portland are playoff (play-in) candidates, so these H2Hs could play a vital role at the end of the regular season. There is not much difference between these rivals, and even though the Jazz are better on team offense (117.6 points per game), the Blazers have a stronger defense, while the hosts also have three individuals who are averaging 20+ points per contest (Lillard, Simons, and Grant). Jerami Grant had a horrible shooting night (1-9 FG) against the Spurs and scored just three points after scoring double digits in every game since December 16. I am backing Grant to bounce back here and contribute to Portland’s victory.</p>



<p><strong>Pick</strong>: Take the Blazers at -2.5 (-130)</p>



<p><strong>The Total</strong></p>



<p>We will likely be going to have a high-scoring affair on Wednesday. Both teams are among the top seven when it comes to offensive rating, while they are not even in the top 20 in defensive rating. The Jazz have the 22nd defense in the NBA that allows 116.3 points per game, and I am backing the Blazers to score 120+ here. Over is 5-0 in the Jazz’s last five road games, while Over is 7-3 in the Trail Blazers’ previous ten games following an ATS win.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Go Over 235.5 points (-120)</p>
