MLB Picks: After a perfect night, Eckel is back at it with another cycle of picks for Yankees vs Orioles, and Indians vs Twins

Mark Eckel

Keep swinging was Wednesday’s mantra. And it worked.

After a couple of sub-par days in the baseball betting world, Wednesday night produced a perfect 3-for-3 night. And not only did all three teams — the White Sox, the Nationals and the Brewers — win, all three recorded shutouts.

Thursday’s schedule is limited and also not very appealing, but let’s take a few swings.

Cleveland Indians at Minnesota Twins, 7:05 pm

Pitchers: Shane Bieber vs. Jose Berrios

Odds: Indians -106; Twins -114

New York Yankees at Baltimore Orioles, 7:05 pm

Pitchers: J.A. Happ vs. John Means

Odds: Yankees -230; Orioles +195

Over/Under: 10

The Cycle

Single: I like the Twins and their ace Berrios to win at home against what could be a tired Indians team playing its first game on the road this season.

Double: It’s hard to actually bet a team at -230, so to make it a little more equitable take the Yankees to beat the Orioles and the over 10 runs in a parlay.

Triple: Let’s get crazy and do a three-team parlay with the Twins, Yanks and the over 10 runs in the Yanks/Orioles game.

Home Run: Since we’re pumping the Twins go with Josh Donaldson (+280) to go yard tonight and also look for Cincinnati’s Eugenio Suarez (+200) to hit his first home run of the season as well.
