The lowly Pittsburgh Pirates will look to get something going this Thursday with their series in Cincinnati as they face the Reds for a 3-game series.
Pittsburgh Pirates
The Pirates hold the worst record in baseball at 3-13 and have struggled equally with ball and bat. Their task gets no easier here against a solid Reds team who are hungry for postseason baseball.
The Pirates should be well rested, however, as their previous series against the Cardinals was postponed.
The Pirates do have a chance in this game, though, as they send Trevor Wiliams to the mound who was fantastic last time out. In his last outing against the Twins he was able to go 7 innings and only allowed one run, so if he can come anywhere close to his last performance he will put the Pirates in a position to win.
Cincinnati Reds
The Reds on the other hand are a very exciting young team with guys like Aristides Aquino who will have big ambitions for this year. The Reds have not gotten off to the best start with an 8-9 record so far and that has them 4.5 games behind the Chicago Cubs in the race for the NL Central.
Therefore a series like this against the worst team in baseball will be critical if they are to achieve their postseason hopes and they have all the talent to get that done and close the gap on the Cubs.
Anthony DeSclafani gets the call for the Reds in this one who was awesome last Saturday against the Brewers going 6 scoreless innings. He is very much in line to repeat that performance against the struggling Pirates bats.
Free Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Cincinnati Reds MLB Prediction:
I think Cincinnati takes this game, but I prefer the under in this one considering the pitching matchup. It would not surprise me if both DeSclafani and Williams have solid outings and although this total is likely to be modest, I still think this one will go under the total.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Under the total
Take the under in this Thursday matchup and cash in on MLB action.
