Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB betting for Tuesday.

⚾ Umpiring Chaos: Griffin and Munaf detail egregious officiating, including Juan Soto’s walk on miscalled pitches and Felix Bautista’s bad call with bases loaded.

📉 Casey Mize's Decline: Mize allowed 6 ER in 3 IP vs. Mariners pre-ASG and has a 4.93 bullpen ERA since June—down from 3.31.

🏠 Mitch Keller Home Split: Despite a 3.48 ERA over 16 starts, he's just 3–10 due to lack of run support at home.

🔥 Brandon Young Struggles: Orioles have lost 5 straight starts by Young, who holds a 7.52 ERA and 7 ER allowed in his last start.

🔄 Chase Burns Inconsistency: Impressive vs. Yankees (5 Ks), but bombed at Fenway (5 ER in ⅓ IP); rebounded with 10.2 IP, 3 ER in July.

📊 Christopher Sanchez Surge: 55.1 IP in June-July, only 10 ER; hasn’t allowed more than 1 ER in any July start.

💥 Brewers' Rise: Milwaukee tied NL Central lead, won 10 straight. Mizorowski: 4–1, 0.90 ERA, 11.6 K/9, dominated Dodgers with 12 Ks.

🏗️ Astros Betting Edge: Despite injuries, Framber Valdez remains consistent. Eduardo Rodriguez 1–7 lifetime vs. HOU, 7.51 ERA.

🚑 Dodgers Injury Watch: Max Muncy out, Yamamoto’s form fluctuates—bounced back with 7 IP shutout vs. Giants after early Brewers exit.

🎯 Twins/Dodgers Over or RL Look: Simeon Woods Richardson may keep it close; Dodgers miss final AB as home team—potential run line value.

Umpire Performance (0:49–3:47): Griffin slams ump Ron Culpa for miscalls, notably in Juan Soto’s walk and Orioles’ loss. They advocate for tech-enhanced strike zones used in spring training.
Tigers vs. Pirates Preview (4:52–8:55): Mize under scrutiny post-6 ER outing; Keller decent stats but lacks offensive support. Tigers bullpen ERA worsened (3.31 to 4.93) since June.
Guardians vs. Orioles (8:56–12:26): Brandon Young's poor road starts (7.52 ERA, 7 BBs) continue; Guardians’ Cantillo returns from minors aiming to stretch out starts.
Nationals vs. Reds (12:26–16:11): Nationals fading post-GM firing. Chase Burns shows improvement after rocky debut; Reds offense surging.
Red Sox vs. Phillies (16:12–20:19): Sanchez has allowed 10 ER over 55.1 IP since June. Phillies signed David Robertson, exposing bullpen fragility despite strong starting pitching.
Yankees vs. Blue Jays (20:19–24:28): Jays swept Yanks earlier in Toronto. Scherzer beat them on June 30 (5 IP, 2 ER, 7 Ks). Jays offense peaking at critical time.
Angels vs. Mets (24:30–28:18): Montas (5.03 ERA) unreliable; Hendricks “crafty” but volatile. Mets bullpen struggling; run line on Angels offers better value than ML.
Giants vs. Braves (30:35–34:21): Davis Daniel's limited MLB action questioned; Braves are rare home dogs due to lackluster offense. Griffin leans over 9.5 total.
Cardinals vs. Rockies (34:48–39:01): Blaylock’s Coors Field ERA inflated by 12 ER game. Rockies viable for team total overs. Fetty has lost 4 straight starts.
Astros vs. Diamondbacks (39:02–44:05): Framber remains reliable; D-Backs’ bullpen in disarray with multiple closers injured. Rodriguez struggles vs. HOU—Astros best bet as short favorite.
