07-30-20 | Dodgers v. Diamondbacks +144 | 6-3 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 56 m | Show | |
6* Dodgers/Diamondbacks MLB *BAILOUT* on Arizona +144 The Key: If there’s such a thing as a letdown spot in MLB this would be it. The Dodgers just swept their 2-game series with the Astros by winning in extra innings last night. It was sweet revenge for the Dodgers, who felt like they were robbed of a World Series title by the Astros a few years ago due to the cheating scandal. And we’re getting the Diamondbacks at a great price tonight with Robbie Ray on the mound. Ray has had great success against the Dodgers, going 8-6 with a 3.33 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 21 lifetime starts. Ross Stripling is 1-2 with a 4.41 ERA and 1.38 WHIP in 8 lifetime starts against the Diamondbacks. Take Arizona. |

07-29-20 | White Sox -113 v. Indians | Top | 4-0 | Win | 100 | 7 h 17 m | Show |
7* AL Central Game of the Month on Chicago White Sox -113 The Key: The White Sox really need a win as they are just 1-4 while the Cleveland Indians are 4-1. Ace Lucas Giolito is here to the rescue and is the much better starter in this matchup with Zach Plesac. Giolito is 2-2 with a 3.16 ERA in 4 lifetime starts against Cleveland. He has pitched 14 2/3 shutout innings in his last 2 starts against them with 17 K’s. Plesac has never beaten the White Sox, going 0-2 with a 5.25 ERA in 2 lifetime starts against them. Take Chicago. |

07-28-20 | Brewers v. Pirates +155 | Top | 6-8 | Win | 155 | 9 h 59 m | Show |
7* National League Game of the Week Pittsburgh Pirates +155 The Key: The Pittsburgh Pirates want revenge after blowing a 5-1 lead in the 9th and losing in extras to the Brewers yesterday. We are getting them at a tremendous price here Tuesday in Game 2 of this series. Derek Holland has never lost to the Brewers as he is 1-0 with a 2.08 ERA in 2 lifetime starts against them. Josh Lindblom makes his return to the majors after spending the last few years in Korea. He is 5-8 with a 4.10 ERA and 1.37 WHP lifetime in the majors. Take Pittsburgh. |

07-27-20 | Mariners v. Astros -1.5 | Top | 5-8 | Win | 100 | 11 h 34 m | Show |
7* American League *HEAVY HITTER* on Houston Astros -1.5 (-120) The Key: Josh James is 2-0 with a 2.08 ERA in 7 lifetime appearances against the Mariners. Kendall Graveman will be making his first appearance since May 11, 2018 for the Mariners. He went 1-5 with a 7.60 ERA in 2018. The Astros are hitting .290 and scoring 7.0 RPG through 3 games this season behind one of the best lineups in MLB. The Mariners are hitting .238 and scoring 3.7 RPG. Seattle is 10-45 vs. teams outscoring opponents by 0.5 RPG or more over the last 2 years. It is losing by 2.4 RPG in this situation. Take Houston on the Run Line. |

7* Braves/Mets ESPN *HEAVY HITTER* on Atlanta +102 The Key: The Braves should not be underdogs to the Mets today. Rick Porcello went 14-12 with a 5.52 ERA with Boston in 2019 and is on the decline. Sean Newcomb went 6-3 with a 3.16 ERA last year for the Braves. Newcomb is 2-2 with a 2.75 ERA in 7 lifetime starts against the Mets. Take Atlanta. |

07-25-20 | Pirates v. Cardinals UNDER 9.5 | Top | 1-9 | Loss | -115 | 3 h 7 m | Show |
7* Saturday MLB *Total* Annihilator on Pirates/Cardinals UNDER 9.5 The Key: I definitely got robbed on the UNDER 8.5 yesterday in the Cardinals/Pirates game. It was 3-0 going into the 7th inning and finished with 9 combined runs. I’m back on the UNDER 9.5 today because the fact remains that these are two of the worst lineups in baseball, especially Pittsburgh. Adam Wainwright has allowed just 2 earned runs in 13 innings in his final 2 starts against the Pirates in 2019. Trevor Williams gave up just 2 earned runs in 12 innings in his 2 starts against St. Louis in 2019. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
07-24-20 | Pirates v. Cardinals UNDER 8.5 | Top | 4-5 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 19 m | Show |
7* Friday MLB *Total* Annihilator on Pirates/Cardinals UNDER 8.5 The Key: The Pirates have arguably the worst lineup in baseball. They aren’t going to contribute much to this total going up against Jack Flaherty. Flaherty is 4-1 with a 1.84 ERA and 0.93 WHIP in 7 lifetime starts against the Pirates. Joe Musgrove appeared to fix some mechanical issues at the end of last season by going 3-0 with a 2.89 ERA with 32 K’s over his final 5 starts of 2019. The one weakness for the Cardinals is their lineup as it just hasn’t produced the last few years. They are a perfect ‘under’ team and that will prove to be the case today. Take the UNDER. |

10-30-19 | Nationals +123 v. Astros | 6-2 | Win | 123 | 8 h 18 m | Show | |
6* Nationals/Astros Game 7 *CA$H COW* on Washington +123 The Key: The Washington Nationals will improve to 10-0 this postseason in games decided by Max Scherzer and Stephen Strasburg when they win Game 7 Wednesday night. Scherzer is 3-0 with a 1.42 ERA in his last 3 starts and 9-2 with a 2.49 ERA in 14 road starts this year. Zack Greinke is 0-4 with a 5.56 ERA in his last 7 playoff starts and isn’t built to handle this big of a moment. The Nationals have won 7 straight playoff road games. The Nationals are 11-1 in their last 12 trips to Houston. Take Washington. |

10-29-19 | Nationals +1.5 v. Astros | Top | 7-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 37 m | Show |
7* Nationals/Astros Game 6 *HEAVY HITTER* on Washington +1.5 (-135) The Key: Stephen Strasburg is too good to allow the Astros to beat the Nationals by more than one run tonight, let alone beat him at all. I think the price is right to pull the trigger on the Nationals on the Run Line here. Strasburg is 5-2 with a 1.34 ERA in 8 postseason starts lifetime. Justin Verlander is 0-3 with a 5.40 ERA in his last 4 playoff starts this season. Take Washington. |

10-26-19 | Astros v. Nationals -103 | 8-1 | Loss | -103 | 8 h 7 m | Show | |
6* Astros/Nationals Game 4 *CA$H COW* on Washington -103 The Key: The Washington Nationals have a big pitching advantage tonight. They go with Patrick Corbin and will have their best bullpen arms available after none of them pitched last night. The Astros go with rookie Jose Urquidy and probably won’t have all of their best bullpen arms available after they all pitched last night. Take Washington. |
|||||||
10-25-19 | Astros v. Nationals OVER 8 | Top | 4-1 | Loss | -115 | 6 h 42 m | Show |
7* Astros/Nationals Game 3 *Total* Annihilator on OVER 8 The Key: Zack Greinke is 0-4 with a 6.14 ERA in his last 6 playoff starts. Look for him to get rocked again in another high scoring Game 3. The weather is perfect in Washington DC with little to no wind and 60 degree temps at game time. Anibal Sanchez has been good this postseason, but he faces a different animal here in this hungry Astros lineup. The OVER is 4-1 in Astros last 5 games overall. The OVER is 4-0 in Nationals last 4 games overall. The OVER is 6-0 in Nationals last 6 interleague games. Take the OVER. |
|||||||
10-23-19 | Nationals +1.5 v. Astros | Top | 12-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 40 m | Show |
7* Astros/Nationals Game 2 *HEAVY HITTER* on Washington +1.5 (-132) The Key: Stephen Strasburg is the biggest underdog he has ever been in his career tonight. Only having to lay -132 on him on the +1.5 run line is a gift from the books. Another game that’s expected to be a pitcher’s duel here and it’s likely this game is decided by one run either way. Strasburg sports a 1.10 ERA in 7 lifetime postseason appearances with 6 starts. Justin Verlander is 0-2 with a 5.19 ERA in his last 3 starts. He has yielded 10 runs and 5 homers in 17 1/3 innings during this stretch. The Nationals are 90-35 in Strasburg’s last 125 starts and 44-15 in his last 59 road starts. Take Washington on the Run Line. |
|||||||
10-22-19 | Nationals +1.5 v. Astros | Top | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 9 m | Show |
7* Nationals/Astros Game 1 *HEAVY HITTER* on Washington +1.5 (-115) The Key: The total for this game is only 6.5, so oddsmakers are expecting a pitcher’s duel. And when that’s the case there is a good chance the game is decided by one run either way. Getting Max Scherzer on the run line here as only a -115 favorite is a great price. Scherzer has been dominant in the postseason, especially of late while yielding only one run and 5 hits in his last 15 innings pitched for a 0.60 ERA. The Nationals have won 15 of Scherzer’s last 18 starts. They have won 6 straight playoff games and couldn’t possibly come into the World Series with any more confidence after coming from behind to win the wild card game and Game 5 of the NLDS over the Dodgers before sweeping the Cardinals with ease. Take Washington on the Run Line. |
|||||||
10-18-19 | Astros v. Yankees +131 | 1-4 | Win | 131 | 9 h 36 m | Show | |
6* Astros/Yankees Game 5 *CA$H COW* on New York +131 The Key: I like the price we are getting with the Yankees at home underdogs as they try to stave off elimination for one more game. The Yankees are 54-19 in their last 73 home games, so it’s hard to envision them not winning a single home game in this series. The Yankees are 6-0 in James Paxton’s last 6 home starts as well. Paxton is 7-3 with a 3.48 ERA in his 16 home starts this year. Paxton sports a 3.25 ERA in 15 lifetime starts against the Astros. Take New York. |
|||||||
10-17-19 | Astros v. Yankees -128 | Top | 8-3 | Loss | -128 | 12 h 47 m | Show |
7* MLB Playoffs Game of the Year on New York Yankees -128 The Key: Masahiro Tanaka beat Zack Greinke in Game 1 to cash in the Yankees as nearly +150 underdogs. Tanaka will beat Greinke again in Game 4 here and save the Yankees season. Tanaka is 3-0 with a. 1.00 ERA in his last 3 starts. Tanaka sports a 1.95 ERA in his last 6 starts against the Astros. Greinke is 0-4 with a 6.84 ERA in his last 5 postseason starts. He has yielded 19 runs and 8 homers in 25 innings. The Yankees have won 54 of their last 72 home games. Take New York. |
|||||||
10-15-19 | Astros v. Yankees +141 | Top | 4-1 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 7 m | Show |
7* Astros/Yankees Game 3 *HEAVY HITTER* on New York +141 The Key: If anyone was going to beat Gerrit Cole this season, it would be the Yankees at home. They are 59-24 at home this year. And I would argue they are going with their most talented starter tonight in Luis Severino, who had a huge season last year but has been injured most of this year, so he is under the radar. Severino is 1-1 with a 1.12 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in 4 starts this year, and 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA and 0.78 WHIP in 2 home starts. Severino is also 2-0 with a 1.13 ERA in his last 2 starts against the Yankees, yielding only 2 earned runs in 16 innings. The Yankees are 22-3 in home games off a loss this year, and 14-1 in home games after scoring 2 runs or less this year. Take New York. |

10-14-19 | Cardinals +123 v. Nationals | 1-8 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |
6* Cardinals/Nationals Game 3 *CA$H COW* on St. Louis +123 The Key: Jack Flaherty gives the Cardinals hope that they can get back in this series. He takes the ball for Game 3 tonight with the Cardinals trailing 0-2. Flaherty is 12-9 with a 2.75 ERA in 35 starts this year. What he has done in the second half of the season has been unmatched and is deserving of Cy Young consideration. Flaherty sports a 1.13 ERA in his last 18 starts. He has yielded only 15 runs in 119 innings during this stretch. Take St. Louis. |
|||||||
10-11-19 | Nationals v. Cardinals UNDER 8 | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 7 h 26 m | Show | |
6* Nationals/Cardinals NL *Total* Annihilator on UNDER 8 The Key: This game sets up perfectly for an UNDER. Both teams are still hungover from winning Game 5 in the NLCS and the batters will be affected more. It will take some time for players to get into this series, and the pitchers on both teams will be at an advantage in Game 1. But the biggest advantage for the pitchers in this one is the fact that temperatures will be in the 40’s for this game in St. Louis Friday night. Anibal Sanchez sports a 3.48 ERA in 15 road starts this year, and Miles Mikolas sports a 3.01 ERA in 15 home starts. The UNDER is 4-1 in Nationals last 5 playoff road games. The UNDER is 35-16 in Cardinals last 51 home games against a right-handed starter. The UNDER is 9-1-2 in Mikolas’ last 12 starts against a team with a winning record. The UNDER is 5-0-1 in the last 6 meetings. Take the UNDER. |

10-09-19 | Cardinals v. Braves -102 | 13-1 | Loss | -102 | 4 h 9 m | Show | |
6* Cardinals/Braves Game 5 *CA$H COW* on Atlanta -102 The Key: Mike Foltynewicz already squared off with Jack Flaherty once in this series. Foltynewicz won Game 2 by a final of 3-0 as he fired 7 shoutout innings, while Flaherty gave up 3 runs in his 7 innings. Foltynewicz now is 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA in his last 2 starts against the Cardinals in 2019 without allowing a single earned run in 13 innings. He has been pithing well for a couple months now. Foltynewicz sports a 1.48 ERA in his last 8 starts and has yielded only 8 earned runs in 48 2/3 innings over this time frame. Flaherty is 1-2 with a 4.18 ERA in 4 lifetime starts against the Braves. The Cardinals are 1-7 in their last 8 playoff road games. St. Louis is 1-5 in Flaherty’s last 6 road starts against a team with a winning record. The Braves are 14-3 in Foltynewicz’s last 17 starts, and 6-0 in his last 6 home starts. Take Atlanta. |

10-08-19 | Astros v. Rays OVER 7.5 | Top | 1-4 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 9 m | Show |
7* Astros/Rays AL *Total* Annihilator on OVER 7.5 The Key: The Astros and Rays combined for 13 runs in Game 3. I think they’ll easily top this 7.5-run total in Game 4 as well. Justin Verlander is vulnerable tonight as he’ll be pitching on 3 days’ rest for the first time this season. And Diego Castillo will be the opener in what will be a bullpen game for the Rays. Castillo is 0-1 with a 6.14 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in 6 starts this year, and 0-0 with a 10.81 ERA and 1.80 WHIP in 3 home starts. Castillo is 11-2 OVER when the total is 7 to 8.5 over the last 2 years. The OVER is 4-0 in Astros last 4 playoff road games. The OVER is 13-3 in Castillo’s last 16 starts. The OVER is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings. Take the OVER. |

10-07-19 | Yankees v. Twins +138 | 5-1 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 22 m | Show | |
6* Yankees/Twins AL *CA$H COW* on Minnesota +138 The Key: The Minnesota Twins will be determined to avoid the sweep in Game 3 tonight. They had too good of a season and are too good a team for it to end like that. They should be able to get to the lightly-used Luis Severino, who has only pitched 12 innings all season due to injury. The Yankees won’t extend him too long in this game. Jake Odorizzi is having a great year at 15-7 with a 3.51 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 30 starts. He has actually done pretty well against the Yankees lifetime with a 1.20 WHIP across 17 starts. Severino has never beaten the Twins as he is 0-1 with a 7.00 ERA and 1.67 WHIP in 3 lifetime starts against them. Odorizzi is 10-0 after giving up 2 earned runs or fewer in each of his last 2 outings this season. The Yankees are 2-10 in their last 12 playoff road games. The Yankees are 0-5 in their last 5 road games against a right-handed starter. The Twins are 21-6 in Odorizzi’s last 27 starts. Take Minnesota. |

6* Braves/Cardinals NL *Total* Annihilator on UNDER 8.5 The Key: Adam Wainwright has been dominant at home this season, and Mike Soroka has been dominant on the road. I think the price is right to pull the trigger on the UNDER 8.5 here in Game 3 because of it. Soroka is 7-1 with a 1.55 ERA in 16 road starts. Wainwright is 9-4 with a 2.56 ERA in 16 home starts. Wainwright is 8-0 UNDER as a home dog of +100 or higher over the lsat 3 years. Wainwright is 8-1 UNDER in day games this season. Take the UNDER. |

6* Nationals/Dodgers NL *Total* Annihilator on UNDER 7.5 The Key: Runs will be hard to come by again tonight for the Dodgers and Nationals. These are two elite starting rotations when you have Stephen Strasburg and Clayton Kershaw as your No. 2 starters. Strasburg is 18-6 with a 3.32 ERA in 33 starts this year. Kershaw is 16-5 with a 3.10 ERA in 28 starts. Strasburg sports a 2.66 ERA in 11 lifetime starts against the Dodgers. Kershaw sports a 2.65 ERA in 18 lifetime starts against the Nationals. The UNDER is 5-0-1 in Nationals last 6 games against a left-handed starter. The UNDER is 17-6-1 in Strasburg’s last 24 road starts against a team with a winning record. The UNDER is 9-1-1 in Dodgers last 11 playoff home games. The UNDER is 18-7-1 in the last 26 meetings in Los Angeles. Take the UNDER. |

10-03-19 | Nationals v. Dodgers UNDER 7.5 | 0-6 | Win | 100 | 10 h 39 m | Show | |
6* Nationals/Dodgers NL *Total* Annihilator on UNDER 7.5 The Key: Runs will be hard to come by between the Dodgers and Nationals with the two starters going tonight. Pat Corbin is 14-7 with a 3.25 ERA in 33 starts this year. Corbin is 2-0 with a 0.59 ERA in his last 5 starts against the Dodgers. Walker Buehler is 14-4 with a 3.26 ERA in 30 starts this year. Buehler is 6-1 with a 2.86 ERA at home this year. He sports a 2.92 ERA in 2 lifetime starts against the Nationals. He fired 7 shutout innings in his lone home start against the Nationals this year. The UNDER is 8-1-1 in Dodgers last 10 playoff home games. The UNDER is 34-13-5 in Dodgers last 52 home games against a team with a winning record. The UNDER is 11-0-2 in Buehler’s last 13 home starts against a team with a winning record. Take the UNDER. |

7* Rays/A’s AL *Total* Annihilator on UNDER 7.5 The Key: Two elite starters go at it tonight followed by two elite bullpens in this wild card game. The end result will be a pitcher’s duel and UNDER 7.5 combined runs. Charlotte Morton is 16-6 with a 3.05 ERA and 1.08 WHIP in 33 starts this year for the Rays. Morton is 2-1 with a 3.20 ERA and 1.14 WHIP in 7 lifetime starts against the A’s, including 1-0 with a 0.68 ERA in 2 starts against them in 2019 while yielding only one earned run in 13 1/3 innings. Sean Manaea is 4-0 with a 1.21 ERA and 0.78 WHIP in 5 starts this year. Manaea is 1-1 with a 2.70 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in 3 lifetime starts against the Rays. The UNDER is 6-0 in A’s last 6 games overall. The UNDER is 5-0-1 in A’s last 6 playoff home games. The UNDER is 5-1 in Manaea’s last 6 starts. The UNDER is 4-1 in Rays’ last 5 games overall. The UNDER is 10-4 in the last 14 meetings in Oakland. Take the UNDER. |

10-01-19 | Brewers v. Nationals -174 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 16 m | Show |
7* Brewers/Nationals NL *HEAVY HITTER* on Washington -174 The Key: The Nationals come into the postseason with all the momentum and a real chance to win a World Series with their combination of starting pitching, a revamped bullpen and a great lineup. I expect them to handle their business here in the wild card against the Brewers and improve to 9-0 in their last 9 games overall. The Brewers are 0-3 in their last 3 games overall, which has to have given their confidence a hit because all 3 were meaningful games in Colorado with the NL Central title at stake. Max Scherzer sports a 2.92 ERA in 27 starts this year and a 1.80 ERA in 8 lifetime starts against the Brewers. I trust in him to get the job done over Brandon Woodruff, who has a 4.41 ERA in 9 road starts and a 5.14 ERA in his last 3 outings. Take Washington. |

09-29-19 | Reds v. Pirates +109 | 3-1 | Loss | -100 | 3 h 17 m | Show | |
6* National League *MOUND MISMATCH* on Pittsburgh Pirates +109 The Key: The Pirates are 4-1 in their last 5 games overall and closing the season strong. I don’t believe they should be home dogs to the Reds today. Trevor Williams has never lost to the Reds, going 5-0 with a 1.94 ERA in 8 lifetime starts against them. Tyler Mahle is 2-12 with a 5.42 ERA in 24 starts this year for the Reds and 0-1 with a 9.26 ERA in his last 3 outings. Mahle has never beaten the Pirates, going 0-3 (0-5 ML) with a 4.61 ERA and 1.43 WHIP in 5 lifetime starts against them. Take Pittsburgh. |

6* American League *MOUND MISMATCH* on Oakland A’s -1.5 (-123) The Key: The A’s can move closer to clinching a wild card with a win over the Mariners on Friday. The Mariners have lost 4 straight and have scored a combined 2 runs in those 4 games, an average of just 0.5 RPG. Mike Fiers is 15-4 with a 3.86 ERA in 32 starts for the A’s this year and should shut down the Mariners. Justus Sheffield is 0-1 with a 5.79 ERA in 6 starts for the Mariners, and 0-1 with a 6.75 ERA in 4 home starts this year. Fiers is 14-0 against an AL team with an OBP of .320 or worse in the second half of the season over the last 2 years. Fiers is 12-0 as a road favorite of -150 or more over the last 2 years. The A’s are winning by 3.7 RPG in this situation. Take Oakland on the Run Line. |

6* American League *MOUND MISMATCH* on Cleveland Indians -1.5 (-117) The Key: The Indians are now 1.5 games out of the wild card after losing yesterday. Due to their advantage on the rubber in this one, they will bounce back in blowout fashion against the Chicago White Sox Thursday night. Aaron Civale is 3-3 with a 1.82 ERA and 0.99 WHIP in 9 starts this year. Dylan Cease is 4-7 with a 5.67 ERA in 14 starts, and 2-4 with a 6.55 ERA in 7 home starts. The Indians are 6-0 in their last 6 against a right-handed starter. Cleveland is 40-11 in its last 51 against a team with a losing record. Take Cleveland on the Run Line. |

09-25-19 | Yankees v. Rays -142 | Top | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 6 h 27 m | Show |
7* AL East Game of the Year on Tampa Bay Rays -142 The Key: That Tampa Bay Rays are the 2nd wild card right now, but 0.5 games behind the A’s and 0.5 games ahead of the Indians. They need to keep winning just to get into the postseason. The Yankees have already clinched the division and aren’t likely to catch the Astros for the top seed. They don’t need wins right now, and it’s showing. The Yankees are just 5-5 in their last 10 games overall, while the Rays are 5-1 in their last 6 contests. The Rays have the clear advantage on the rubber tonight with Charlie Morton, who is 15-6 with a 3.15 ERA in 32 starts, and 7-3 with a 2.75 ERA in 16 home starts. Jonathan Loaisiga is 0-1 with a 5.73 ERA in 3 starts for the Yankees. The Yankees are 4-19 as a road dog of +100 to +150 over the last 2 years. New York is 0-4 in Loaisiga’s last 4 starts. The Rays are 6-0 in Morton’s last 6 home starts against a team with a winning record. Take Tampa Bay. |

6* Monday MLB *Total* Annihilator on Marlins/Mets UNDER 8.5 The Key: I can’t see the Marlins and Mets being able to do much offensively in this game. Steven Matz is 7-1 with a 1.97 ERA in 13 home starts for the Mets this year. Caleb Smith has been the Marlins’ best starter, going 9-10 with a 4.12 ERA and 1.16 WHIP in 26 starts. Smith is 2-0 with a 2.38 ERA in 4 lifetime starts against the Mets. Matz is 4-3 with a 2.83 ERA in 11 lifetime starts against the Marlins. The UNDER is 6-1-1 in Mets last 8 games overall. The UNDER is 7-1-1 in Matz’s last 9 starts against the Marlins. Take the UNDER. |

The Red Sox are 3-11 in their last 14 games overall to fall 7.5 games back in the wild card and are almost assuredly missing out on the playoffs now.

7* National League *HEAVY HITTER* on Washington Nationals -130 The Key: The Nationals have been on a tear for months and are closing in on the Braves in the NL East.

The Diamondbacks were sellers at the deadline and it’s showing as they are 1-4 in their last 5 games.

They are crushing the White Sox in this series 10-3 and 6-2 to take the first 2 games. I don’t see them letting up here against a White Sox team that is just 3-12 in their last 15 games overall. The Twins are 23-7 in their last 30 road games against a team with a losing record. Martin Perez is 7-3 with a 4.10 ERA in 17 starts this year.

They only trail the Twins by 2 games in the AL Central now after trailing by more than 10 games a few months ago. So they have a lot to play for here, while the Royals do not. And the Indians are cheap considering they have the advantage on the rubber too. Zach Please is 4-3 with a 3.67 ERA and 1.11 WHIP in 10 starts this year.

7* AL Central Game of the Week on Minnesota Twins -149 The Key: The Twins feel the Indians breathing down their necks. Fortunately, they now have an easy schedule moving forward after playing a tough schedule prior to this stretch. They just beat the White Sox 10-3 last night and they should crush them again Friday. The White Sox are just 3-11 in their last 14 games overall and out of contention in the division now. Chicago starter Dylan Cease is 1-2 with a 6.19 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in his 3 starts this year.

I believe the Rays are cheap given their motivational advantage, and the fact that they have a very easy schedule coming up now after just facing the Yankees and Red Sox. The Blue Jays won’t offer much resistance. Jacob Waguespack is 0-0 with a 6.30 ERA and 1.80 WHIP in 2 starts for Toronto. Take Tampa Bay. |

7* AL West Game of the Week on Houston Astros -153 The Key: The Houston Astros have won 6 straight coming in and are really grabbing a stranglehold on the AL West. Going 8-1 against the A’s this season has certainly helped their cause as they simply have their number. There’s no reason to believe the A’s will win this game, either.
