And that's exactly what "The Prodigy" is doing. Rusk has hit on 24 of his last 41 MLB picks, hitting on 59 percent of his picks adding to his total of more than $3,000 since the start of the 2017 season.

Now he's studied Wednesday's packed MLB slate and his top three picks are in. If you parlay these together, you could be looking at a return of 5-1!

We can tell you Rusk is going with the Phillies (-145) at home to face the Pirates at 6:05 p.m. ET. Rusk is on a 20-9 run (+888) picking games involving either Chicago or New York.  

"The Phillies as they have one of the best road-to-home win differentials in the league," Rusk told SportsLine. "Entering this contest 10 games over .500 at home, I don't think they have much to worry about against rookie Mitch Keller and the Pirates. I like the Phillies to pour it on Wednesday night."

Rusk has also unearthed a key x-factor that has him all-in on a big underdog Wednesday. You ABSOLUTELY must see what he's thinking before locking in your own MLB picks!
