Best NRFI Bets Today – Free NRFI Picks

NRFI Prediction No. 1: San Francisco Giants at Chicago Cubs (-110)

We cashed on these two teams yesterday and on Monday, and we are going back to the well today.

The Giants average .32 runs per first frame, the fourth-worst mark in the MLB. We are fading them today. Their run-per-first-inning figure drops to .24 on the road, so we like the NRFI. They have averaged 0 runs over their last three games, and we expect this to stay the same. They are facing Kyle Hendricks, who is very hittable, but The Giants roster has a .250 xwOBA against Hendricks.

The Cubs average .46 runs per first inning, which is in the middle of the pack. They have averaged zero runs per first inning over their last three games. Their run production in the first frame rises to .53 runs at home, but we are not concerned. Both offenses’ mediocre first-inning success has us on the NRFI.

NRFI Best Bet Today #2: Kansas City Royals at Oakland Athletics (-110)

The Royals put up .55 runs per first frame, which is near the top of the MLB, but we are facing them today. They are averaging no runs in the first inning over their last three games, and we expect this to stick. The Royals score .31 runs in the first on the road, which is a solid dropoff. They are facing righty Luis Medina, who has been solid this season, and the Royals have not faced him.

The A’s are averaging .31 runs in the first frame, which is 3rd worst in baseball. So far this season, they are averaging .22 runs at home. Left-handed starter Cole Ragans makes a start for Kansas City, and Ragans has been great this season. He dominates the A’s current roster with a 42.1% K rate, a .154 xBA, a .287 xSLG, and a .225 xwOBA.
