Best NRFI Bets Today 2024 08 13 Tigers Tarik Skubal

On Tuesday, Tarik Skubal and the Tigers will host George Kirby and the Mariners. We are taking the NRFI in this game because of the pitching matchup, combined with the weak offenses. 

The second NRFI on our betting card features the Cardinals and Reds. Erick Fedde will face Hunter Greene. With these pitchers on the mound, we expect the offense to be very difficult to find. The best sportsbook to utilize on Tuesday is bet365 Sportsbook because of their special promotion. 

As a special offer, bet365 provides $25 in bonus bets if you bet a $50 parlay. This exclusive deal is available only through our promo link

Best NRFI Bets Today: Cardinals vs. Reds  (6:40 PM, EST)

1st Inning Under 0.5 Runs (-115) at bet365

St. Louis comes into this matchup at 60-58 in second place in the NL Central. Cincinnati is 57-61, trailing Milwaukee by 10.5 games in this division. 

Fedde is 8-5 in 2024 with a 3.28 ERA. He has fanned 118 batters in 131.2 innings and has a 1.15 WHIP. Fedde is coming off a 5 inning performance in which he allowed one run on four hits against the Rays. 

Greene toes the rubber for the Reds and he is 8-4 with a 2.90 ERA. He has 154 strikeouts in 136.1 innings with a 1.03 WHIP. Greene has allowed three runs in his last 19 innings and has been collecting most of his outs on the strikeout. 

St. Louis is hitting .247, which is the 13th-best in baseball this season. Masyn Winn leads the team, hitting .279 along with nine home runs. Alec Burleson has also contributed at the plate, hitting .277 with 20 home runs and 67 RBIs. 

Cincinnati has been the exact opposite: they are hitting just .230 as a club. Elly De La Cruz leads the team, batting .264 with 20 home runs and 50 RBIs. Outside of De La Cruz, the Reds have not been producing offensively in 2024.

This matchup features two starting pitchers who have been great this season, and we are confident they will go deep into this game. They are both known for being strong starters.

Best NRFI Bets Today: Mariners vs. Tigers (6:40 PM, EST)

1st Inning Under 0.5 Runs (-140) at bet365

The next NRFI we are taking is in the Mariners vs. Tigers game. Seattle is 63-56, tied for first in the AL West with Houston. Detroit comes into this game at 56-63 in fourth place in the AL Central

George Kirby takes the ball for the Mariners, and he is 8-8 with a 3.13 ERA. He has 138 strikeouts in 141 innings and a 1.02 WHIP. It’s important to select NRFI bets with pitchers who have high-caliber strikeout ability, and we are getting that in Kirby. 

The Tigers are going with Tarik Skubal, the betting favorite, to win the AL Cy Young award at -380 on bet365 Sportsbook. He is 13-4 with a 2.57 ERA and has struck out 171 batters in 2024. Skubal has been the best pitcher in the league this season, and we expect him to dominate this matchup. 

The Mariners' batting average is .218, the second-worst in the league. Seattle's pitching staff has carried the team, as runs have been hard to come by all year. 

The Tigers are not much better on offense this season, as they are hitting .230 as a team. This is the third-worst mark in baseball. With both offenses ranking at the bottom of the league, we expect Kirby and Skubal to take care of business and cash our NRFI bet.
