Best NRFI Bets Today: No Run First Inning Picks 5/23

Rockies vs. Pirates NRFI/YRFI Bet | Claim $200 FREE at BetMGM

Pittsburgh was humiliated 18-4 by the Cardinals yesterday and should not be expected to bounce back in any tremendous fashion. They are a horrible baseball team opening up a series against a marginally better team in the Rockies, much different away from Coors field. The Pirates give up more first inning runs per game than anyone in baseball, although it dips from .93 overall to .59 at home, still sixth-worst in all MLB. The Rockies just will not provide enough early firepower to take advantage of J.T. Brubaker being so awful. This game gets out of hand, just not in the first inning.

The bats are starting to warm up for Philadelphia despite navigating Bryce Harper‘s elbow injury, and the Braves are fifth in MLB in home runs. Power can do wonders to cash these YRFI bets, especially if a starter is prone to any early mistakes. Both of these teams are top 10 in MLB in holding opponents scoreless in the first, but Philly dips on the road, as does Atlanta at home. Zack Wheeler will face off against Tucker Davidson but look for Rhys Hoskins or Ronald Acuna Jr. to steal the first inning.

Cardinals vs. Blue Jays NRFI/YRFI Bet | Claim $200 FREE at BetMGM

No way St. Louis can keep up the offensive onslaught seen yesterday against the Pirates, right? Expect some early fireworks as the Cardinals’ bats are cooking with gas. Even better news for St. Louis is their opponent has given up at least one run in the first inning in two of their last three games, despite Toronto being sixth-best in MLB in that category. The Cardinals are catching the Jays at the perfect time, especially in the first inning tonight.
