William Boor's Dodgers vs Guardians Preview, Betting Analysis
The "Silent Sharp Unders" system targets regular-season MLB games in which both teams are performing well, but the total has quietly dropped from open to close.
These are games featuring competent, winning teams with recent success, playing in stable weather conditions and with closing totals in a common scoring range. Despite both teams showing strength, the market subtly favors the under — likely due to matchup specifics, pitching or pace factors. By following this soft signal — when the public is more focused on win streaks than totals — this system finds value in betting against inflated scoring expectations.
This matchup meets all the aforementioned criteria, so let's trust the math and back a system that has hit 56% of its all-time picks.
Pick: Under 7.5

Run Line (Spread)
