In the Tampa Bay Rays-Minnesota Twins rubber match, sharp bettors have backed the Rays to win the series, causing a shift in odds from -110 to -125. Pablo Lopez (4-2, 2.31 ERA) faces Drew Rasmussen (3-4, 2.60 ERA). The Rays boast a better recent performance, with a .248 average and 2.22 ERA over the past ten games, contrasting with the Twins' .234 average and 3.03 ERA.
In the Interleague series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Cleveland Guardians, the Dodgers are favored after taking the first two games. Clayton Kershaw (0-0, 7.50 ERA) meets Kolby Allard (2-0, 1.50 ERA). The Dodgers' offense has proven superior with a .264 average, 87 home runs, and 310 runs scored compared to the Guardians' .230 average, 56 home runs, and 216 runs scored.
The third game of the series between Pittsburgh Pirates and Arizona Diamondbacks features a battle of right-handed starters, Paul Skenes and Zac Gallen. Despite the Pirates' comeback win in the previous game, sharps have favored the Diamondbacks to take the series.
Using betting value systems, there is potential for the Rays to provide value as a non-division favorite and the Diamondbacks as a favorite in a low total game. The Dodgers, meanwhile, hold Interleague value with the lack of familiarity favoring the expected "better" team.
