Thursdays are for MLB matinees.
There are 10 games on today's baseball slate, nine of which get underway before 4:05 p.m. ET.
A schedule like this can make it difficult for bettors stuck at work to handicap the entire board and lock in their favorite MLB picks today, though the Action Network's PRO betting tools can make that task a bit easier.
Specifically, I'm turning to two similar historically profitable PRO Betting Systems to find value for Thursday's Boston Red Sox vs. Cleveland Guardians and Houston Astros vs. Chicago Cubs matchups.
The systems and corresponding MLB picks for Thursday are detailed below.

It's going to be windy today at Progressive Field.
So the key questions for bettors are:
- Which direction will the winds be blowing?
- How will they impact scoring?
