Arizona Diamondbacks vs. San Francisco Giants best bets

One of the keys to the final week of the regular season is finding teams with something up for grabs. The Diamondbacks are still battling the Mets and Braves for a wild card spot in the National League. It should help that this game is at home, where they have a 42-33 record this season.

This game in Arizona could also give Ketel Marte a boost. He has a .238 ISO and a .408 wOBA at home. In his last 10 starts anywhere, Marte has had at least two hits, runs and RBIs seven times. Let's assume he can accomplish that feat again, assuming the Giants start Hayden Birdsong. In 14 starts with the Giants this year, he has a 4.74 ERA and a 4.94 FIP.

Sticking with this game, let's also bet on Corbin Carroll to get at least one stolen base at good rates. Thanks to his improved hitting down the stretch, he has 11 stolen bases in his last 22 games. Birdsong has a WHIP of 1.39 and the Giants have allowed the second-most stolen bases per game in the league.

MLB tips for Arizona Diamondbacks vs San Francisco Giants

  • Ketel Marte Over 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBI (-140 at DraftKings Sportsbook) for 1 Unit
  • Corbin Carroll over 0.5 stolen bases (+330 at DraftKings Sportsbook) for 0.5 units

The best bets for Toronto Blue Jays vs. Boston Red Sox

It's been a disappointing season for the Blue Jays, who will likely finish last in the American League East. One of their few bright spots has been the performance of Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who has a .226 ISO and a .402 wOBA. He hasn't slowed down toward the end of the season either, hitting 17-for-44 (.386) in his final 11 games, as well as hitting two home runs and two doubles.

Starting in this game for the Red Sox will be Tanner Houck, who recently missed two weeks with shoulder fatigue. In his last start, he threw just 60 pitches in four innings. The Red Sox have little chance of making the playoffs, so they may not want to force Houck to throw many more pitches in this game. Behind him is a Red Sox bullpen that has the sixth-highest bullpen ERA and seventh-highest bullpen WHIP in the major leagues. Guerrero has the potential to produce another juicy stat if Houck leaves this game early.
