Best NRFI Bets Today – Free NRFI Picks

NRFI Prediction 1: St. Louis Cardinals at Milwaukee Brewers (-110)

The Brewers and the Cardinals both average .5 runs per first inning, but we are going with the under in today’s NL Central showdown. The Cardinals have been a stronger YRFI team on the road, but now they will be without Contreras at the top of the order; we expect this team to take a step back in the first-inning offense.

Sonny Gray, the veteran, is making the start for the Cardinals. Gray has been in the Cy Young conversation so far this season, and he will look to continue his case by starting off today with a scoreless first frame. This is a great NRFI target.

NRFI Best Bet Today #2: Kansas City Royals at Los Angeles Angels (-110)

The Royals are one of the best first-inning offenses in the MLB, but we are fading them today on the road in Los Angeles. Kansas City averages .71 runs per first frame, but that number drops to .47 when on the road. They are facing lefty Reid Detmers, which is a tough matchup for this lineup.

The Angels are averaging .46 runs in the first frame, but they have been worse at home so far this season, averaging .40. Michael Wacha makes the start for the Royals, and though he has been getting hit hard, he limits walks, which is huge for an NRFI. The current Angels roster is batting .094 against Wacha in 34 plate appearances with a .214 xwOBA.
