06-15-22 | Rays +130 v. Yankees | 3-4 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 47 m | Show | |
The Tampa Bay Rays can make up some ground in the AL East over the 1st place Yankees as they begin a 3-game series here tonight in New York. The Rays are 35-26, but still trail NY by 10-games. They also have to think about Wild Card too at this point and they trail 2nd place Toronto by just 1-game. The Rays most successful pitcher will go today in Shane McClanahan who is 7-2 in his 12 starts with a nifty 1.87 ERA. He's been even better on the road with a 2-1 record in his three starts and a 1.47 ERA. McClanahan has won five straight starts! The Yankees bring a 5-game win streak into tonight's contest. New York will start Nestor Cortes who is 5-2 in his 11 starts with a 1.96 ERA. Cortes had one of his worst starts last time out, allowing seven hits and four runs over 4 1/3 innings to the Twins in a loss. Good live dog here today with the Rays who should be motivated to get this win with their best on the hill Play Tampa Bay. |

06-15-22 | Reds v. Diamondbacks UNDER 8.5 | 4-7 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 23 m | Show | |
The Cincinnati Reds look to extend their modest win streak to four games here tonight by sweeping the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Reds have taken the first two games of this series 5-4 and then last night 5-3. Luis Castillo will take to the hill for the Reds with a 2-4 record in his seven starts and a 3.23 ERA. Castillo has been very consistent for the Reds, allowing three runs or fewer in six of his seven starts. Arizona has lost two straight and eight of their last 11 games. Zac Gallen has been very good this year with a 4-2 record in his 11 starts and a 2.95 ERA. He's been better at home with a 2-0 record in his six starts and a 2.57 ERA. Both pitchers are very good and I expect a low scoring game here this evening. Play UNDER. |

06-14-22 | Padres -128 v. Cubs | 12-5 | Win | 100 | 10 h 58 m | Show | |
The Padres have pulled back to a tied in 1st place in the NL West with the LA Dodgers. The Padres have won seven of their last 10 while the Dodgers are just 4-6 during the same span. The Padres still boast the best road record in baseball with a 21-11 mark. Sean Manaea will toe the rubber today for the Padres with a 3-3 record in his 11 starts and a 3.52 ERA. Manaea has been very good of late, allowing just two total runs over his last two starts (13 innings). The Cubs have been in free fall, losing seven straight games to drop to 23-37 on the season. Kyle Hendricks will start today for the Cubs with a 2-5 record in his 11 starts and a 5.22 ERA. Hendricks not having near the kind of season we are used to seeing from him in recent years. I'll be on the Padres today again. |

06-14-22 | Marlins v. Phillies -141 | Top | 11-9 | Loss | -141 | 9 h 58 m | Show |
The Miami Marlins look to snap a recent 2-game losing streak here today in game two of their set with the Phillies. They lost on Monday with their best pitcher on the mound, 2-3. Now they will send Trevor Rogers to the hill today. Rogers is 3-5 in his 11 starts with a 5.58 ERA. He's allowed seven earned runs over his last 8 2/3 innings of work. The Philadelphia Phillies finally got back over the .500 mark as they have won as they have won 10 of their last 11 games. Zach Eflin is just 2-4 with a 4.09 ERA but has won his last two starts with just one earned run allowed over 12 innings. Eflin has been very good at home too, going 2-1 in his five starts with a 1.16 ERA. I'll take the hot Phils today with a equally hot Eflin on the hill. |

06-13-22 | Marlins +120 v. Phillies | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 55 m | Show | |
The Miami Marlins had their five game win streak snapped on Sunday by the Houston Astros, 9-4. The Marlins have improved to 27-31 in the NL East, still way behind the NY Mets. One of, it not the best, pitcher for the Marlins goes today in Sandy Alcantara. Alcantara is 6-2 in his 12 starts this year with a very good 1.61 ERA and 0.944 WHIP. Alcantara has not allowed a run over his last two starts (16 innings) and just three runs over his last six starts. The Phillies dropped back to the .500 mark with a loss on Sunday. They are still 9-games back of the Mets in the NL East. That loss on Sunday snapped a nine-game win streak for the Phillies. Aaron Nola will start today with a 4-4 record in his 12 starts and a 3.50 ERA. Nola rebounded from a poor 5-run performance vs the Giants with a nice eight inning, no runs outing vs the Brewers last start. I like Alcantara, he's very consistent and very good. Play Miami. |

06-12-22 | Marlins v. Astros UNDER 7.5 | 4-9 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 4 m | Show | |
The Miami Marlins have quietly built a five-game winning streak as they look to take the sweep on the road here today at Houston. They beat the Astros in game one, 7-4 and then again yesterday in game two, 5-1. Edward Cabrera will look to win again today after going 2-0 in his first two starts. Cabrera has a 0.75 ERA and 0.750 WHIP and has allowed just one earned run over his 12 innings of work. Cabrera and the Marlins will have their work cut out for them today against former Cy Young winner Justin Verlander. Verlander is 7-2 on the season with a 2.13 ERA and. 0.84 WHIP. Verlander had that one bad start on May 27th, allowing six runs and 10 hits over 6 innings to the Mariners. Other than that he has not allowed more than three runs in any of his other 10 starts. I look for this to be a low scoring game today and with that I'll be on the UNDER. |

06-12-22 | Orioles v. Royals OVER 9.5 | 10-7 | Win | 100 | 3 h 17 m | Show | |
Baltimore and Kansas City wrap up their four-game set here today with the Royals having won the first two games and the Orioles the game on Saturday, 6-4. Two of the three games of the series have gone over with the third just missing by one run. Dean Kremer will make his second start of the season here today for the O's. Kremer allowed five hits and three runs over 4 1/3 innings in his first game against Cleveland. The Royals will start Brad Keller here today. Keller is 1-7 in his 11 starts with a 4.18 ERA. Keller hasn't been very good, allowing three runs or more in each of his last six starts. I like this game to go OVER here today. |

06-12-22 | Rays -113 v. Twins | Top | 6-0 | Win | 100 | 5 h 3 m | Show |
The Tampa Bay Rays have lost the first two games of this series with the Twins, 4-9 on Friday and 5-6 on Sunday. That drops them to 34-25 overall and a 1/2 game back of the Blue Jays for 2nd in the AL East. Before the two losses, the Rays had won six of the previous eight games. Jeffrey Springs will get the start today with a 1-2 record in his seven starts. Springs has a very nifty 2.12 ERA and 1.000 WHIP. He's allowed two runs or fewer in each of his last six starts since his opening start of three runs. Minnesota will look to Cole Sands to help them take the sweep here today. That might be a tough task though since Sands only has two starts and neither was any good. He allowed four runs over four innings to the Tigers and four runs over 3 2/3 innings to the Yankees for a 9.39 ERA. In addition, his WHIP is a very high 2.477. Tampa Bay is too good with too good of a pitcher today to get swept. Take Tampa Bay. |

06-12-22 | Blue Jays v. Tigers +124 | 6-0 | Loss | -100 | 5 h 33 m | Show | |
The Toronto Blue Jays are 10-games above the .500 mark at 34-24, however they still trail the NY Yankees in the AL East by 8.5 games. They will need a winning streak if they hope to get back close to the Yankees by the All-Star break. They have split the first two games with the Tigers, taking game one, 10-1, and then losing last night 1-3. Ross Stripling will get the start today for the Jays. Stripling is 1-1 in his six starts with a 3.46 ERA. Stripling has been good, but aslo has hit some rough patches. While the Tigers are 10-games under .500 with a 24-34 record, they might be one of the scrappiest teams in baseball. They have won three of their last four games including last night's win. They have their best pitcher on the mound here today in Tarik Skubal. Skubal is 5-2 in his 11 starts with a 2.06 ERA. The team is 4-1 in his five home starts with a 2.10 ERA. Skubal is going to have his team in the game and a s decent dog price here today, the Tigers are too much to pass on. Play Detroit. |

06-11-22 | Red Sox +117 v. Mariners | 6-7 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 20 m | Show | |
The Boston Red Sox had their seven game win streak snapped by the Angels on Thursday, 2-5. They came right back on Friday with a win in game one of this series with the Mariners, 4-3. Michael Wacha will start today for the Sox with a 4-1 record in his nine starts and a nifty 1.99 ERA. Wacha has not allowed a run over his last two starts (14 2/3 innings) with nine KO's and just one walk. The dropped to 26-32 with last night's loss to Boston. George Kirby will look to get back to winning ways today. Kirby is 1-1 in his six starts with a 3.38 ERA. I like the way Wacha has pitched over his last few games and I will take the visiting Boston club tonight. |

06-11-22 | Mets -122 v. Angels | Top | 6-11 | Loss | -122 | 20 h 39 m | Show |
The LA Angels snapped their 14-game losing streak by finally beating the Boston Red Sox in the final game of their set on Thursday, 5-2. That win streak was short lived though, as the Angels dropped game one of their series with the Mets on Friday, 7-3. Meanwhile, the Mets have a comfortable lead in the NL East at 39-21 and a 6.5-game lead over 2nd place Atlanta. The Mets will start Carlos Carrasco today who has been very good for the Mets. Carrasco is 7-1 in his 11 games for the Mets with a 3.37 ERA. The Angels will start Michael Lorenzen who is 5-3 in his nine starts and has a 3.69 ERA. Lorenzen has been roughed-up a bit of late, allowing eight runs over his last two starts (13 2/3 innings). I'm sticking with one of the best teams in the NL in the Mets here today against a slumping Angels team. Play New York. |
|||||||
06-11-22 | A's v. Guardians -109 | 10-5 | Loss | -109 | 14 h 42 m | Show | |
The Oakland A's slide continues as questions surrounding their move to Las Vegas might gain momentum with attendance below that of even minor league teams. The A's lost to the Guardians on Friday, 2-3, making it 10-straight losses. Frankie Montas will try and get the team back in the win column today. Montas is 2-6 in his 12 starts with a 2.93 ERA. Montas hasn't been quite as good on the road where he is 1-2 in three starts with a 4.15 ERA. The Cleveland Guardians have won three straight games. They have also won nine of their last 11 games. Zach Plesac will start today for the Guardians. Plesac is 2-4 in his 10 starts with a 4.72 ERA. He's been better at home with a 3.10 ERA in his five starts. Even though Montas is the better pitcher, I will stay with Cleveland here today. |

06-10-22 | Marlins v. Astros UNDER 8 | 7-4 | Loss | -115 | 18 h 31 m | Show | |
Miami won last night in the final game of their set with Washington, 7-4. That meant the Marlins swept Washington in their three game set. Pablo Lopez will start today for the fish with a 4-2 record in his 11 starts. Lopez has a very nice 2.32 ERA and 0.970 WHIP. Lopez has been even better on the road with a 2-1 record in his five starts with a 1.41 ERA. The Astros had Thursday off as they begin 3-game set with Miami. Luis Garcia will toe the rubber today for the Astros. Garcia is 3-4 in his 10 starts with a 3.07 ERA. Garcia has pitched well of late, allowing two runs or fewer in six of his last seven starts. Both pitchers appear to be in a groove right now and for me, I'll be on the UNDER today. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
06-09-22 | Red Sox +107 v. Angels | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 41 m | Show | |
The LA Angels are mired in a 14-game losing streak. They thought firing manager Joe Maddon might help after losing 12 in a row. But so far that hasn't done a thing with two more losses. Shoeie Ohtani will look to end the losing streak today. Ohtani is 3-4 in his nine starts this season with a 3.99 ERA. He has allowed nine runs over his last nine innings. Meanwhile, the Boston Red Sox have won seven straight games as they have moved up in the AL East division. Nick Pivetta will toe the rubber today for the Sox with a 5-4 record over his 11 starts and a 3.50 ERA. Pivetta has been very good of late, allowing just one run in his last two starts (13 innings). Moreover, he has allowed one run or no runs in five of his last six starts. Have to keep with the winning team. I don't buck long losing streaks like the Angels have. Play Boston. |

06-09-22 | Phillies +152 v. Brewers | 8-3 | Win | 152 | 2 h 14 m | Show | |
The Philadelphia Phillies have been hot, winning six straight games after Wednesday's blowout win over the Brewers, 10-0. The Phils are just two games back of the .500 mark, but still a good 9.5 games back of the Mets in the NL East. Zach Eflin will toe the rubber today for the Phillies with a 2-4 mark in his nine starts and a 4.24 ERA. Eflin coming off his best start of the season, going eight innings vs the Angels, allowing just five hits and no runs for the win. The Brewers look to snap a 5-game losing streak here today. They lost three of four at home to the Padres and now the first two games of this series to the Phillies. The Brewers start Corbin Burnes today who is 3-3 in his 11 starts. Burnes has a 2.50 ERA and slightly higher 3.86 home ERA. Burnes to hit hard in his last start, allowing eight hits and five runs over 3 2/3 innings to the Padres. Phillies a big dog here today and I see them as a live dog with their winning streak. Play Philadelphia. |

06-09-22 | Dodgers -119 v. White Sox | Top | 11-9 | Win | 100 | 2 h 13 m | Show |
The LA Dodgers have a slim 1.5 game lead over the Padres in the NL West. LA has run into some tougher times of late, going 3-6 over their last nine games. Tyler Anderson will get the start for LA today. Anderson has been their most successful starter with a 6-0 record in his eight starts and a 2.64 ERA. Anderson has allowed no runs over his three starts (20 innings). The White Sox still struggling to make it back to the .500 record with a 26-28 record. They had their three game win streak snapped last night by the Dodgers, 1-4. Dylan Cease will start today with a 4-2 record and 3.39 ERA. Cease also has been good of late, allowing no runs over his last two starts (10 innings). I like Anderson as he's looked the best for LA all season. Take the Dodgers. |

06-08-22 | Yankees -1.5 v. Twins | 1-8 | Loss | -105 | 6 h 22 m | Show | |
Yankees have now won seven straight games, after taking game one of this set from the Twins, 10-4. They actually haven't just won, they have dominated, outscoring their opponents 48-11 during the seven games. Today, they have one of their best, if not their best, on the mound in Nestor Cortes. Cortes is 5-1 in his 10 starts with a 1.50 ERA and 0.867 WHIP. He has been just as good on the road with a 3-1 record and 1.50 ERA. Cortes has allowed one run or fewer in four of his last five starts. The Twins are in 1st in the AL Central, but this is the softest division in baseball as no other team is even over the .500 mark. The Twins have lost five of their last seven games. Christ Archer gets the start today with a 0-2 record in his 10 starts. Archer has a 3.89 ERA overall and a 5.00 home ERA. I see this matchup as a total mismatch. The Yankees are red hot and have a huge advantage in pitching today. I'll lay the Run line with the Yankees. |

White has a 4.77 ERA and has not gone past the fifth inning yet. Meanwhile the White Sox have won two straight and pulled within 2-games of the .500 mark. Michael Kopech starts today with a 1-2 record in his nine starts and a 2.20 ERA. Other than his last start, Kopech has allowed no runs in three of his previous four starts. I'll take the home dog here in the Sox with a very good starter on the hill. Play Chicago. |

A pair of 1st place teams bump heads today as the NL East leading Yankees take on the AL Central leading Minnesota Twins. The Yankees bring a 6-game win streak to Minnesota for the first of a 3-game set. Jameson Taillon will start for the Yankees. He's been one of their best on the hill with a 6-1 record in his 10 starts and a 2.30 ERA. The Twins still aren't sure who they will start and for me it doesn't really matter. I like Taillon a lot and will take him against any of the Twins starters here today. Play New York. |

06-07-22 | Tigers v. Pirates UNDER 7 | 5-3 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 10 m | Show | |
The Detroit Tigers look to snap a 3-game losing streak as they visit the NL's Pittsburgh Pirates today. The Tigers aren't often a road favorite, but they are today. That is mainly because their winningest pitcher is on the mound in Tarik Skubal. Skubal is 4-2 on the season with a very good 1.84 ERA. Skubak has allowed no runs in four of his last five starts. The Pirates have been doing well of late, winning five of their last six games including a 3-game sweep of the LA Dodgers. Jose Quintana will get the start for the Bucs today. Quintana is 1-2 in his 10 starts with a 2.32 ERA. Both these pitchers are very good and as such, I'll take the UNDER today. |

Inter League action today has the Cubs making the trip to Baltimore to take on the Orioles. The Cubs coming off a pair of losses at home to the Cardinals. They look to get back in the win column here today with Keegan Thompson on the hill. Thompson is 3-0 in his four starts with a nifty 2.79 ERA. The Cubs are 4-0 in Keegans starts this year. The Orioles lost their last game on Sunday to the Guardians, 2-3. They have now lost three of their last four games. Kyle Bradish will toe the rubber today for the O's.

Wacha has had one bad start, but other than than he's been excellent. The LA Angels have free fallen in the AL West.

He's 4-3 on the season with a 4.02 ERA. He's also been on rough times of late, allowing 12 runs over his last three starts (11 innings). I have to stick with Boston here today.

Today's rubber game has George Kirby starting for the M's. Kirby is 1-1 in his five starts with a 3.46 ERA. The Rangers are so close to that .500 mark as they sit at 25-27 overall. Martin Perez looks to get them one game closer today. Perez is 4-2 on the season with a 1.42 ERA and 0.932 Whip.

The Houston Astros sit comfortably in 1st in the AL West, 6.5 games ahead of the LA Angels. Still, it's hard to accept a 0-6 loss to the lowly Royals as they did last night. Today is the rubber game of the series and the Astros won't want to let this series go down. Framber Valdez starts today with a 5-2 record in his 10 starts. Valdez has a nice 2.57 ERA and better 1.40 road ERA this season. He has allowed one run in three of his last four starts. Moreover, he's allowed no more than three runs in nine of his 10 starts this season. The Royals are in last in the AL Central with a 17-34 record. They have lost five of their last six games. Jon Heasley will start today. Heasley is 0-2 in his four starts with a 4.66 ERA and 5.40 home ERA. While Heasley hasn't been bad, don't think he has enough to take this series from the 1st place Astros. Lay the Run line with Houston. |

06-05-22 | Angels v. Phillies -118 | 7-9 | Win | 100 | 2 h 46 m | Show | |
The Philadelphia Phillies look for the sweep today over the LA Angels in this lone Inter League matchup. The Phillies have pounded the Angels too, winning by a combined 17-2 in the two games. Kyle Gibson starts today for the Phils. Gibson is 3-2 in his 10 starts with a 3.83 ERA. Gibson has been very consistent of late, allowing just two runs in each of his last three starts. The Angels are in second place in the AL West, but still a good 5.5 games back of Houston. The Angels have been in a big hitting slump of late, scoring just five runs in the last five games (ALL LOSSES). Patrick Sandoval looks to right the ship today. Sandoval is 3-1 in his eight starts with a 2.70 ERA. However Sandoval coming off one of his worst starts last time out, allowing five hits and six runs over just three innings to Toronto. Gibson has been pitching well for the Phils and LA in a losing streak. I'll take Philly to sweep today. |

The Yankees have heated up again, now winning five straight games as they look for the sweep over Detroit today. They took both games in big fashion, shutting out the Tigers in game one 13-0 and again in game two, 3-0. Jordan Montgomery will start today with a 1-1 record in his 10 starts and a 3.04 ERA. He's been very consistent, allowing three runs or fewer in each of his 10 starts. The Tigers will have to find some offense today if they look to avoid the sweep. Rony Garcia will be on the hill and he looks to be more cannon fodder for the Bronx Bombers. Garcia is 0-1 in his two starts with a 8.00 ERA. The only good thing, he's struck out 12 and walked just three. I look for another lopsided Yankees win here today. I'll lay the Run Line with New York. |

Tyler Wells looks to turn that around today as he's 2-4 in his 10 starts with a 3.71 ERA. He's been slightly better at home with a 1-0 record in four starts and a 2.29 ERA. I like both pitchers to keep this one close and low scoring. take the UNDER. |

The Arizona Diamondbacks took game one of this series with the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday night, 8-6. That was the club's third win in their last four games. Zach Davies will look to make it two in a row vs the Bucs here today. Davies is 2-3 in his 10 starts with a 4.84 ERA. Davies has also had a rough time of late, allowing 12 earned runs over his last 13 innings of work. The Pirates came back down to earth after their road sweep of the Dodgers. They are still hitting the ball well, their fourth game in a row with at least five runs. Roansy Contreras will start today for the Bucs no record in his two starts and a 1.80 ERA. I'm taking the Bucs to rebound here today. Play Pittsburgh. |

06-04-22 | Twins v. Blue Jays OVER 8.5 | 3-12 | Win | 100 | 4 h 45 m | Show | |
The Minnesota Twins have little competition in the AL Central with no other team having a .500 or better record. It almost makes them complacent knowing they should cruise to the division championship. Dylan Bundy will start today with a 3-2 record and 4.76 ERA. Bundy allowed nine hits and four runs in his last start to Detroit. The Blue Jays saw their eight-game win streak come to an end on Friday in their loss to the Twins, 3-9. However, it was their sixth straight over and their ninth over in their last 10 games. Jose Berrios will start today for the Jays with a 3-2 record in his 10 starts. Berrios has a lofty 5.62 ERA and has allowed nine runs over his last nine innings of work. I'm taking today's contest over. |

06-04-22 | Tigers v. Yankees -1.5 | Top | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 2 h 42 m | Show |
The Detroit Tigers had their modest 3-game win streak snapped on Friday by the Yankees, 0-13. The Tigers will look to be more competitive today with Beau Brieske on the hill. However, that doesn't look to promising with his 0-4 record in seven starts and 5.24 ERA. The Yankees have won three straight games after Friday's white wash of the Tigers. In fact, the Yankees four game win streak they have outscored opponents by a 30-3 margin. Luis Severino on the hill today with a 3-1 record in his nine starts and a 3.38 ERA. Doesn't really matter who they start though, they should pound the Tigers once again. I'm laying the Run Line with the Yankees. |

06-03-22 | Padres v. Brewers UNDER 6.5 | 7-0 | Loss | -100 | 18 h 37 m | Show | |
The San Diego Padres and Milwaukee Brewers play game two of their set here tonight in Milwuakee. The Padres lost game one on Thursday, 4-5. The Padres looked to have the game in hand leading 4-1 in the bottom of the ninth inning, but gave up four runs to lose the game. The Padres will try and rebound tonight from that devastating loss with their best pitcher on the hill in Joe Musgrove. Musgrove is 5-0 in his nine starts with a nifty 1.86 ERA. Musgrove has not allowed more than two runs in any of his nine starts this year. Milwaukee will counter with their Ace in Corbin Burnes. Burnes is just 3-2 in his 10 starts, but has a great 1.95 ERA. Two of the top pitchers in the NL and both candidates for the NL Cy Young. I'll take this game UNDER. |

06-03-22 | Twins v. Blue Jays OVER 9 | 9-3 | Win | 100 | 6 h 31 m | Show | |
The first place Minnesota Twins are now 30-23 after losing three straight games. They still have a comfortable lead in the AL Central since no other team is within 3-games of even the .500 mark. Today they start a three-game set vs one of the hottest teams in baseball, the Toronto Blue Jays. The Twins made a call to Triple-A St Paul to bring up today's starter, Chi Chi Gonzalez. Gonzalez had a 3.44 ERA in the minors with and struck out 23.4% of batters he faces. He last pitched in the majors with Colorado from 2019 to 2021 and had a less than stellar career with the Rockies. Meanwhile Toronto has won eight straight games including sweeps of the Chicago White Sox and LA Angels. Yesei Kukuchi starts today with a 2-1 record in his nine starts with a 3.48 ERA. Kikuchi is ok, but I'm not sure Gonzalez will do much better with the Twins. I'm taking the Over today. |

06-03-22 | Diamondbacks v. Pirates -105 | 8-6 | Loss | -105 | 17 h 31 m | Show | |
The Pittsburgh Pirates are 22-27 and 3rd in the NL Central division. However, they played well above their pay grade on their recent road trip to LA. The Dodgers might have thought they had an easy three game set coming up, but that isn't what happened. The Pirates swept the Dodger at Chavez Ravine, outscoring the high priced LA lineup, 19-12 in the process. Pittsburgh had Thursday off as they head to Phoenix to take on the Diamondbacks starting tonight. J.T. Brubaker will start for the Bucs. Brubacker is 0-4 with a 4.15 ERA, but has pitched great of late. He has gone two straight starts (11 2/3 innings) allowing no earned runs. The Arizona Diamondbacks are 25-27 and in 4th in the NL West. Merrill Kelly will start for the D'backs tonight with a 3-3 record and 3.67 ERA. Kelly hasn't been as good on the road where he has a 5.40 ERA in his four away starts. I'm going to see if the Bucs can continue their magic here tonight in Arizona. Play Pittsburgh. |
|||||||
06-02-22 | Cardinals v. Cubs -102 | 5-7 | Win | 100 | 9 h 35 m | Show | |
A rivalry continues with a five-game set between the St Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs. They will play a doubleheader on Saturday. The Cardinals are in 2nd place in the NL Central with a 29-21 record. The Cubs are in fourth with a 21-29 record. The Cardinals will start Matthew Liberatore today, making his third start of the season. Liberatore had a rough first start, allowing seven hits and four runs to the Pirates. However, he followed that with a very good start vs the Brewers, allowing just two hits and no runs over five innings for his first win. The Cubs have won two straight games, as they split their four-game series with the Brewers. Keegan Thompson will start today for the Cubs. Thompson is 2-0 in his three starts with a 1.93 ERA. He's allowed just one run over his last two starts (10 innings) with just one walk and nine KO's. I like Thompson and the Cubs to take game one of this rivalry with the Cardinals. |
|||||||
06-02-22 | Angels v. Yankees -145 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 33 m | Show | |
Game 2 of the Doubleheader between the Angels and Yankees. The Angels have dropped fast in the AL West after losing six straight games. They now trail 1st place Houston by 5.5-games. Reid Detmers will go in game two here today. Detmers is 2-2 with a 4.65 ERA. He's been worse on the road with a 8.48 ERA in his three away starts. The Yankees are in 1st in the AL East, 5.5-games ahead of the Tampa Bay Rays. The Yankees will start Jameson Taillon today. Taillon is 5-1 in his nine starts with a 2.49 ERA. Tallion has allowed just one run over his last two starts (15 innings). I'll take the Yankees in game 2 here today. |
|||||||
06-02-22 | White Sox v. Blue Jays UNDER 8.5 | 3-8 | Loss | -115 | 4 h 36 m | Show | |
The White Sox look to salvage one game of this three game set with the Blue Jays. The Sox lost game one, 5-6 and then game two last night, 3-7. Johnny Cueto will get the start today for the Sox. Cueto is 0-1 in his three starts with a 2.41 ERA. After two very good starts, Cueto was roughed-up last outing against the Cubs, allowing nine hits and five runs over 6 2/3 innings. Meanwhile the Blue Jays are surging in the AL East, having won seven straight games. They are now in 2nd place in the AL East, 5-games back of the Yankees. Alek Manoah will start for the Jays today. Manoah is 5-1 with a very good 1.77 ERA. He's been even better at home where he has just a 1.33 ERA in four starts. Manoah has also been very consistent this year, not allowing more than two runs in any of his nine starts. I'll take the UNDER here tonight. |
|||||||
06-02-22 | Twins v. Tigers UNDER 8.5 | 2-3 | Win | 110 | 2 h 39 m | Show | |
The 1st place Minnesota Twins have little competition in the division right now. The next closest team are the Chicago White Sox at 23-25 and no other team is above .500 in the division. Chris Archer starts today for the Twins with a 0-2 record in his nine starts. Archer has a 4.19 ERA but has been much better of late. He's allowed one run in two of his last three starts and three runs in his last start. The Detroit Tigers are just 20-30 on the season but have been fighting. The Tigers have won two straight games, four of the last five and five of their last seven. Alex Faedo starts today with a 1-2 record in his five starts. He has a 3.00 ERA and has allowed two runs or fewer in each of his five starts this year. I'm taking the UNDER here today. |
|||||||
06-01-22 | Twins v. Tigers UNDER 7.5 | 0-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 15 m | Show | |
Minnesota sits in 1st place in the AL Central and is the only team in the division that has a record of better than .500. The Twins hold a 4.5 game lead over the White Sox who are just below the .500 mark. Bailey Ober will start today for the Twins with a 1-1 record in his six starts and a 3.25 ERA. He's been very good in his two road starts, posting a 0.82 ERA. In addition, he's allowed just six total runs over his lat five starts. The Tigers have won three of their last four games including last night's game one with the Twins, 4-0. Tarik Skubal will start today for the Tigers. Skubal has been very good with a 3-2 record and 2.09 ERA. He's allowed just three total runs over his last four games (25 innings). Both pitchers are very good and I'll be on the UNDER in this one. |
|||||||
06-01-22 | White Sox v. Blue Jays UNDER 8.5 | Top | 3-7 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 11 m | Show |
The Toronto Blue Jays have won six straight games after their opening game win in this series with the White Sox last night, 6-5. The Jays have improved to 28-20 and are just a half game back of the Rays in the AL East for 2nd place and 5.5 back of the Yankees for 1st place. Hyun-Jin Ruy will start today with a 2-0 record and 5.48 ERA. Most of tha ERA came in his first two starts where he allowed 11 runs in 7 1/3 innings. Then he had almost a month off with an injury before returning on May 14th. Since his return, Ryu has three very good starts, allowing just three runs over 15 2/3 innings. The Sox dropped below the .500 mark with their loss last night. They will try to get back there tonight with Michael Kopech on the hill. Kopech is 1-1 in his eight starts with a very good 1.29 ERA. He's been even better in his four road starts with a 0.45 ERA. I like this game UNDER! |
|||||||
06-01-22 | Braves v. Diamondbacks UNDER 9 | 6-0 | Win | 100 | 4 h 43 m | Show | |
Atlanta has lost the first two games of this three game series with the Diamondbacks, including last night's contest 7-8. The Braves will try to salvage the last game here today with Kyle Wright on the hill. Wright is 4-3 in his nine games with a 2.68 ERA. Wright has been very good of late, allowing four total runs over his last three starts (18 innings). Arizona can get to the .500 mark with a win today as they sit at 23-24 overall. Madison Bumgarner will start today with a 2-3 record and 3.35 ERA. I like this game to go under here today. |
|||||||
06-01-22 | Astros v. A's UNDER 7.5 | 5-4 | Loss | -113 | 4 h 41 m | Show | |
The Houston Astros will look to extend their win streak to four games here today at Oakland. The Astros are in 1st place in the AL West with a 32-18 record and 5-games ahead of the LA Angels. Justin Verlander looks to rebound from his worst start of the season. Verlander went just six innings and gave up 10 hits and six runs in his last start at Seattle. That coming after a three game streak where he allowed no runs over 19 innings of work. The Oakland A's have lost the first two games to the Astros, 1-5 on Monday and 1-3 on Tuesday. Cole Irvin will try to get the A's back in the win column. Irvin is 2-2 with a 2.93 ERA in his seven starts. He's been very good at home with a 1-0 record in four starts and at 1.61 ERA. I expect Verlander to go out and shut down these A's which only have two runs in the series as it is. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
05-31-22 | Rays v. Rangers -110 | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 58 m | Show | |
The Tampa Bay Rays are 28-20 in the AL East and trail the first place Yankees by 5-games. They are coming off a loss to the Rangers in game one of this series on Monday, 5-9. This after taking two of three from the Yankees in the weekend series. Ryan Yarbrough will start today for the Rays with a 0-1 record in his four starts and a 4.41 ERA. Yarbrough has yet to have a quality start in any of his four outings. The Rangers can get to .500 with a win tonight over the Rays. That would still keep them in 3rd in the AL West, 7-games back of division leading Houston. The Rangers have won five of their last six games. Martin Perez will start today for the Rangers with a 3-2 record in his nine starts and a very good 1.60 ERA. Perez has allowed either one or no runs in each of his last seven starts. I'll take the Rangers and a very good Perez here tonight. |
|||||||
05-31-22 | Brewers -124 v. Cubs | 7-8 | Loss | -124 | 8 h 57 m | Show | |
Rivalry game here today between the Brewers and Cubs. Brewers have taken the first two games of this series with the Cubs, 7-6 in game one and 3-1 in game two in Sunday's doubleheader. Eric Lauer starts here today for the Brewers with a 5-1 record in his eight starts. Lauier has a very good 2.31 ERA this season and allowed over two runs just once in his last seven starts. The Cubs have lost three in a row, including that doubleheader to the Brewers on Sunday. They have also lost five of their last six games. Justin Steele starts today for the Cubs with a 1-5 record in his nine starts and a 5.40 ERA. Steele coming off his worst start of the season where he allowed seven runs over just two innings of work against Cincinnati. I'm taking the Brewers today with the much better starter on the hill. |

05-31-22 | Reds v. Red Sox -132 | 2-1 | Loss | -132 | 7 h 3 m | Show | |
The NL's Cincinnati Reds travel to Boston today to take on the AL's Reds Sox. Both teams have struggled this year but the Reds have gone through some long losing streaks. The Reds are in last in the NL Central with a 16-31 record. They did win four in a row before losing Sunday's game to the Giants, 4-6. The bullpen has not been very good, especially of late where they have a 5.00 ERA. Luis Castillo starts today for the Reds with a 1-2 record in his four starts with a 4.35 ERA. The Boston Red Sox have struggled most of the season and are within three wins of the .500 mark at 23-26. Michael Wacha will start today for the Sox. Wacha is 3-0 in his seven starts with a 2.83 ERA. He's been even better at home with a 1-0 record in three starts and a 1.17 ERA. I'm going to take the home Red Sox with Wacha today. |

05-30-22 | Braves v. Diamondbacks +109 | 2-6 | Win | 109 | 9 h 29 m | Show | |
The Atlanta Braves just can't seem to get back to that .500 mark yet. They are close at 23-25 after Sunday's win over Miami, 6-3. They did take two of three from the Marlins so that inched them closer. The Braves will be sending Spencer Strider to the hill today. Strider will be making his first career MLB start. Strider has excelled in the bullpen this year with a 2.22 ERA and 1.03 WHIP with 37 KO's and just 11 Walks. Arizona just got swept at home by the LA Dodgers. That four game losing streak after a stretch that saw t the team go 5-1 the previous six games. Zac Gallen gets the start today. Gallen having a fine season with a 3-0 record in his eight starts and a 2.22 ERA. Gallen is coming off his worst start of the season, allowing seven hits and six runs over 5 1/3 innings to the Royals. I look for Gallen to rebound here today and the D'backs to win this game. |

05-30-22 | Rays -135 v. Rangers | 5-9 | Loss | -135 | 9 h 23 m | Show | |
Tampa Bay chasing the Yankees in the AL East, now 4.5-games back with a 28-19 record. The Rays took two of three games from the Yankees in their set which ended yesterday. Their pitching held the hard hitting Bronx Bombers to just five runs total over the three-game set. Drew Rasmussen starts for the Rays today with a 5-1 record and 2.68 ERA. Rasmussen allowed three runs in his last start, a win over Miami. However, that was the mot runs he's allowed in a start in his previous six starts. Texas had their four game win streak snapped on Sunday by the A's, 5-6. They are now 22-24 but still 7-games back of 1st place Houston. Glenn Otto will start today for the Rangers with a 2-2 record and 4.91 ERA in his six starts. He's been much worse at home in his two starts with a 0-1 record and 10.80 ERA. I like the Rays here today with Rasmussen on the hill. |
|||||||
05-30-22 | Astros v. A's UNDER 7 | 5-1 | Win | 110 | 5 h 25 m | Show | |
These two teams begin a three-game set here on Memorial Monday. The Houston Astros salvaged the rubber game of their series with Seattle, taking the third game, 2-1, after losing the first two games. The Astros offense has gone South of late, scoring just five total runs over the last four games. Framber Valdez gets the start today for the Astros. Valdez is 4-2 with a 2.83 ERA this season. He has now gone six consecutive starts without allowing more than three runs in a game. The A's trail the 1st place Astros by 11 games in the AL West. The A's also salvaged one of the four games in their series with the Rangers taking the fourth game, 6-5. Paul Blackburn gets the start today for the A's. He's been their best pitcher by far this year with a 5-0 record in his nine starts and a 1.70 ERA. He's allowed just three runs over his last four starts and six runs over his last six starts. This game looks to be an under play the whole way. Play UNDER. |

05-29-22 | Brewers v. Cardinals UNDER 7 | 8-0 | Loss | -100 | 3 h 42 m | Show | |
The Milwaukee Brewers look to snap a two-game losing streak here today at St Louis and salvage the last game of this series. The Brewers are still in 1st place in the NL Central with a 29-18 record, but their lead has shrunk over the Cardinals to 2.5-games. The Brewers Ace, Corbin Burnes, will start today. While Burnes is only 2-2 in his nine starts he does have a very good 2.18 ERA. He's been even better on the road with a 1.74 ERA in five games. The Cards will counter with Miles Mikolas today. Mikolas is 3-2 and has an impressive 1.96 ERA. He has allowed more than two runs in a start just once (3 runs). Two excellent pitchers on the hill today. I'll take the under. |
|||||||
05-29-22 | Guardians v. Tigers UNDER 8.5 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 4 h 13 m | Show | |
The Detroit Tigers and Cleveland Guardians play the rubber matchup of their 3-game set here today. The teams split the first two games with the Guardians winning Friday and the Tigers winning on Saturday. The Guardians will start Triston McKenzie today with a 3-2 record in his seven starts. McKenzie has a nifty 2.45 ERA overall and 2.40 ERA on the road. He's also given up more than three runs just once in his seven starts this year. The Tigers had their modest two-game win streak snapped last night by the Guardians, 1-8. Elvin Rodriguez will toe the rubber today for the Tigers. He's making just his second start of the season after going five innings in his debut against the Twins, allowing four hits and four runs. The Tigers not much of a hitting team and with McKenzie on the hill for Cleveland I look for a low scoring game. |
|||||||
05-29-22 | Yankees v. Rays UNDER 6.5 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 4 h 12 m | Show | |
The Tampa Bay Rays need these wins vs the Yankees to close that big gap in the AL East. Unfortunately for the Rays the best they can do is a 4-game split with a win here today. They did win on Saturday, 3-1. They still trail the Yankees in the division by 5.5-games. Shane McClanahan will take the hill today for the Rays with his 4-2 record in nine starts and a 2.06 ERA. He has allowed only three earned runs over his last four starts 25 1/3 innings. The Yankees had their four-game win streak snapped last night. Luis Severino looks to get them back on track today. Severino is 3-0 in his eight starts with a 3.02 ERA. He has allowed just one run over his last two starts, 13-innings. Both pitchers are very good and I look for another under in this series. |
|||||||
05-28-22 | Astros v. Mariners UNDER 7.5 | 0-6 | Win | 100 | 10 h 8 m | Show | |
The Houston Astros saw their ACE Justin Verlander roughed-up in game one with the Mariners on Friday as Seattle won, 6-1. The Astros will look to rebound here today with Jose Urquidy on the hill. Urquidy is 4-1 in his eight starts with a 4.24 ERA. He has allowed one run or no runs in three of his last four starts. The Mariners wins have come far and few between of late, that's why Friday's win was so surprising. You have to go all the way back to April 26/27 for the last time the M's have won two straight games. They have Logan Gilbert on the hill today who is 4-2 in his nine starts with a 2.77 ERA. Gilbert has been pretty consistent all season long. I don't expect the M's to get many runs today. If Gilbert can do what he has lately, this will be an UNDER. |
|||||||
05-28-22 | Cubs v. White Sox UNDER 8.5 | 5-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 30 m | Show | |
The White Sox and Cubs play a short 2-game Inter League series here today from the South Side of Chicago. The Cubs have lost two straight, including Thursday's loss at Cincinnati, 5-20. Keegan Thompson starts today for the Cubs. Thompson has two starts and is 1-0 with a 2.00 ERA. The White Sox also lost in their last game 7-16 to the Red Sox to level their record at 22-22 overall. They trail 1st place Minnesota by 5-games in the AL Central. Johnny Cueto starts today for the Sox. Cueto has two starts this season with a 0-0 record and a 0.00 ERA. He has gone six innings in both starts and allowed no runs and 12 KO's. I'll take UNDER here today. |
|||||||
05-28-22 | Giants v. Reds OVER 9.5 | 2-3 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 26 m | Show | |
The San Francisco Giants have been struggling as they have dropped into third place in the NL West, 6.5-games back of the Dodgers. The Giants have averaged a very good 5.09 runs per game this year. It's the pitching staff that has dropped dramatically from last season, allowing a 4.53 ERA overall. Alex Wood starts today with a 3-3 record in eight starts and a 4.82 ERA. The Reds have won three straight games, including last night's opener with the Giants, 5-1. They have now scored 29 runs over their last three games. Vladimir Gutierrez will start today with a 0-6 record and 8.70 ERA. He's been even worse at home with a 9.94 ERA. I like this game over here today. |

05-28-22 | Marlins +108 v. Braves | Top | 4-1 | Win | 108 | 5 h 25 m | Show |
The Miami Marlins look to snap a 3-game losing streak here today at Atlanta. They were swept by their in-state rivals, Tampa Bay. Sandy Alcantara is the only starter to win a game over the teams last seven outings. He beat these Braves on April 22, 4-3, going nine full innings and allowing no earned runs. Alcantara is 4-2 overall in his nine starts with a nifty 2.11 ERA. The defending champion Braves still trying to get back to the .500 mark at 22-24. They beat Miami in game one of this series on Friday 6-4. Tucker Davidson will start today for the Braves. Davidson is 1-1 in his two starts with a 5.87 ERA. He lasted only 2 2/3 innings in his last start against Philly, allowing four hits and five runs. I'll take the Marlins today with their best pitcher on the hill. |

05-27-22 | Dodgers v. Diamondbacks +137 | 6-4 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 45 m | Show | |
The LA Dodgers got their 30th win of the season last night with a win over Arizona in the opening game of this set with the D'backs, 14-1. The Dodgers have been dominating both with the bats and on the mound. They lead the NL West by two-games over the Padres. Ryan Pepiot will make his third start of the season here today. Pepiot has no record yet with a 3.86 ERA. He is coming off a start vs their D'backs where he allowed two hits and three runs over his four innings of work for a no decision. Arizona looks to stay above the .500 mark today with a win over the Dodgers. The 23-23 D'backs have won five of their last seven games. Veteran Madison Bumgarner will start today. Bumgarner is 2-2 in his nine starts with a 2.76 ERA. He's been even better at home with a 1.86 ERA in his four starts. Bumgarner should keep the D'backs close here tonight and for me that makes them a live dog. Play Arizona. |
|||||||
05-27-22 | Rangers v. A's UNDER 7 | 8-5 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 43 m | Show | |
The Texas Rangers improved to 20-23 after winning their last two games. They took the opener in this series with the A's on Thursday, 4-1. They are 0-5-2 O/U/P their last seven games. Jon Gray will start today with a 1-2 record in his six starts and a 5.14 ERA. Gray has been up and down this season, but he has pitched well in two of his last three starts. Oakland dropped to 19-28 on the season with their loss to the Rangers on Thursday. The A's have lost four of their last six games. Cole Irvin will start today with a 2-2 record in his six starts. Irvin has a 2.94 ERA and a nice 1.13 ERA in his three home starts. Since his first two starts of the season, Irvine hasn't allowed over two runs in any of his last four starts. I'll take the UNDER in this contest. |

05-27-22 | Astros -1.5 v. Mariners | 1-6 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 43 m | Show | |
The Houston Astros took the last two games of their three game set with the Guardians. The Astros are in 1st place in the AL West, 2.5-games ahead of the Angels. Justin Verlander will take the hill today. Verlander looks to once again be a Cy Young candidate with his dominating performances thus far. Verlander is 6-1 in his eight starts with a 1.22 ERA. He has not allowed a run in any of his last three starts (19 innings). Seattle has dropped two straight games to fall to 18-27 overall. The Mariners also fell into last in the AL West. Chris Flexen was very good last year, but not this season. He has a 1-6 record in his eight games with a 4.98 ERA. He has also allowed 14 runs over his last 14 1/3 innings. Verlander has been dominating and I don't see the M's giving him much of a problem tonight. Lay the Run Line with the Astros. |

05-27-22 | Blue Jays v. Angels UNDER 8 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 42 m | Show | |
The Toronto Blue Jays have won two straight games to improve to 24-20 in the AL East. They still trail the Yankees by 7.5 games as they have dropped off fast in the division race. Alek Manoah will toe the rubber for the Jays with a 5-1 record and 1.62 ERA. Manoah has allowed no more than two runs in any start this season. The LA Angels are having a fine season with a 27-19 record and just behind the Astros for the AL West lead. Chase Silseth will make his third start of the season today. Silseth is 1-1 in those prior two starts with a 2.61 ERA. Should be a good pitcher duel here tonight and I'll be on the UNDER. |

05-27-22 | Yankees v. Rays UNDER 7.5 | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 7 h 14 m | Show | |
The NY Yankees continue to dominate their division as they lead the AL East by 5.5 games over 2nd place Tampa Bay. The Yankees have won three straight games to improve to 32-13. Jameson Taillon will start today with a 4-1 record in his eight starts and a 2.95 ERA. Tallion is coming off a seven inning performance against the White Sox, allowing five hits and one run. Tamp Bay dropped their game one of this series with the Yankees on Thursday, 2-7. The loss dropped the Rays to 26-18 in the AL East. Jeffrey Springs will make his fifth start for the Rays. Springs is 1-1 in his four previous starts with a 2.12 ERA. In his two home starts he has a 1.23 ERA. Springs has not allowed a run over his last two starts. I'll be on the UNDER here today. |

05-26-22 | Dodgers v. Diamondbacks +167 | 14-1 | Loss | -100 | 20 h 0 m | Show | |
After scoring 19 runs in their first two games at Washington, the Dodgers hit a wall in Wednesday's game three. They scored no runs in a 0-1 loss. That makes LA 29-14 and the Padres remain 1.5-games back with their loss on Wednesday to the Brewers, 1-2. LA now heads all the way back to the West to take on the Diamondbacks in Phoenix. Mike White makes just his second start of the season here tonight. White went just 2 1/3 innings in hi first start vs the Phillies, allowing three hits and three runs. Arizona had Wednesday off after taking two games from Kansas City and also winning five of their last six games. Humberto Castellanos will start for the D'back with a 3-1 record and 4.13 ERA. He's been good, not great, allowing seven runs over his last three starts (16 innings). Dodgers a huge 1.80 favorite here with a very sketchy White on the mound. I like dogs who show value and the D'backs have lots of value tonight. Play Arizona. |
|||||||
05-26-22 | Rangers v. A's UNDER 7 | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 20 h 60 m | Show | |
The Oakland A's took game three of their series on Wednesday with the Mariners as a nice dog price of +1.55 and won, 4-2. Now the A's return home to open their series here on Thursday against the Rangers. Frankie Montas will toe the rubber today for the A's. Montas is 2-4 in his nine starts with a 3.55 ERA. Montas has been excellent of late, going 7 2/3 innings of work with just two runs allowed and one walk and 14 KO's. The Rangers snapped their 3-game losing streak on Wednesday against the Angels with a 7-2 win. That's the most runs the Rangers have scored in their last seven games. Martin Perez will start today for the Rangers. Perez is 3-2 with a very good 1.64 ERA. He's been great on the road in his three starts, allowing no runs including a nine-inning shutout of the Astros in his last start. I'm looking for this game to go UNDER tonight with these two hot pitchers on the mound. |
|||||||
05-26-22 | Brewers v. Cardinals UNDER 7.5 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 18 h 5 m | Show | |
The Milwaukee Brewers remain on the road after a successful trip to San Diego, taking two of the three games including Wednesday, 2-1. Eric Lauer starts tonight for the Brewers with a 4-1 record and 2.16 ERA. Lauer rebounded from a sub-par performance on the 14th with a nice game vs the Nationals last Friday where he allowed no runs over seven innings. The Cardinals had Wednesday off after losing on Tuesday to the Blue Jays, 1-8. That loss snapped a five-game win streak by the Cardinals. This is a big early season series as these two teams are battling it out in the NL Central. The Cardinals are in 2nd place, 3-games back of the Brewers with a 24-19 record. Adam Wainwright will start tonight with a 5-3 record in his eight games. Wainwright has a 2.87 ERA and slightly better 2.50 home ERA. He's been very good of late, allowing three runs over his last 20 innings. Two excellent pitchers that should keep this game low scoring and close. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
05-25-22 | Guardians v. Astros UNDER 8.5 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 29 m | Show | |
The Cleveland Guardians can't seem to put any wins together as they have not won two or more games in a row since May 8 and 9th. Cal Quantrill will start today for the Guardians with a 1-2 record and a 3.48 ERA. Quantrill coming off a nice start where he went seven innings vs the Reds, allowing just five hits and one run. The Houston Astros have a 1-game lead in the AL West over the LA Angels. It's looks to be just a two-team race in the division as the other three teams are all at least five-games below the .500 mark. Cristian Javier starts today for the Astros. Javier is 2-2 with a 4.50 ERA. However, at home he has a 1-1 record in two starts with a 0.79 ERA. Really, Javier has had one bad start in his four outings, a seven run game to the Nationals. I'll take the UNDER here tonight. |
|||||||
05-25-22 | Marlins v. Rays UNDER 7 | 4-5 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 58 m | Show | |
The Miami Marlins lost game one of this series with the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday, 0-4. They have now lost four of the last five games to drop to 18-23 overall and 4th place in the AL East Division. Cody Poteet will make his second start of the season here tonight. Poteet had a nice first start, going 4 2/3 innings vs the Nationals, allowing just one hit and no runs. Tampa Bay improved to 25-17 and is in 2nd place in the AL East behind the NY Yankees. Drew Rasmussen will start for the Rays. He's 4-1 in his eight starts with a nifty 2.33 ERA and 0.905 WHIP. He's been even better at home with a 2-0 record and 1.31 ERA. Rasmussen has allowed just three total runs over his last five starts. Both pitchers should be very good here tonight. I'll take the UNDER. |
|||||||
05-25-22 | A's +157 v. Mariners | 4-2 | Win | 157 | 4 h 30 m | Show | |
The Oakland A's snapped a 3-game losing streak last night with their big dog win over the Mariners, 7-5. That was just their win over their last 10 games. Paul Blackburn will start tonight for the A's and he's been their best pitcher with a 4-0 record in his eight starts. Blackburn has a 1.91 ERA and 0.992 WHIP this year. He's been even better in his five road starts with a 1.37 ERA and the team has won all five of his away starts. The Mariners have also fallen on hard times, losing five of their last six games and dropping to 18-26 in the AL West, just a half game ahead of the A's for last place. Robbie Ray will start today with a 4-4 record in his nine starts and a 4.77 ERA. I'm a little taken aback by the +157 dog price on the A's considering these teams are very equal and the A's have a very good road pitcher in Blackburn on the hill. Lots of value here today with this dog. Play Oakland. |
|||||||
05-25-22 | Brewers v. Padres -132 | 2-1 | Loss | -132 | 4 h 29 m | Show | |
Two of the best NL teams meet today as the NL Central leading Milwaukee Brewers take on the NL West 2nd place San Diego Padres. The Brewers are 27-16 overall and lead 2nd place St Louis by 3-games. Aaron Ashby gets his fourth start of the season today. Ashby is 0-1 with a 4.61 ERA. He's coming off a road game at Atlanta where he allowed six hits and six runs in four innings. The Padres have been one of the best road teams in baseball this year, but have struggled at times at home. They won game one vs the Brewers and then lost last night, 1-4. That loss did snap a five-game win streak for the Padres. Yu Darvish gets the start today with a 4-1 record in his eight starts. Darvish has a 3.91 ERA and a 1.37 ERA at home in his three starts. Darvish has been one of the better Padre pitchers and I'll take him tonight. Play San Diego. |
|||||||
05-24-22 | Brewers v. Padres UNDER 6.5 | 4-1 | Win | 105 | 10 h 35 m | Show | |
The NL Central leading Milwaukee Brewers play game two of their series here tonight at San Diego against the Padres. They lost the opened last night, 2-3. That made two straight losses for the Brewers. They get their ACE on the hill today in Corbin Burnes. Despite his 1-2 record, Burnes has a nice 2.26 ERA and except for his last start he allowed two runs or fewer in his previous six starts. The Padres look to extend their win streak to six games here tonight. The Padres trail 1st place LA by just a half game in the NL West. Blake Snell gets the call today for the Padres. Snell is making just his second start since missing all the previous part of this season due to an injury. Snell only went 3 2/3 innings in his first start back against PHilly, allowing three hits and three runs. I look for Snell to only get stronger as he gets more innings. I'll take the under with these two pitchers on the hill today. |
|||||||
05-23-22 | Guardians v. Astros UNDER 8.5 | 6-1 | Win | 100 | 6 h 49 m | Show | |
Cleveland dropped another game under .500 to 17-20 with their loss on Sunday to Detroit, 2-4. That makes the Guardians 1-4 over their last five games. Zach Plesac looks to get the start tonight for the Guardians. Pleasac is 1-3 in his seven starts with a 4.42 ERA. The Astros improved to 27-15 after winning their last two game and taking three of four from the Texas Rangers. Luis Garcia toes the rubber for the Astros. Garcia is 3-2 with a 3.34 ERA this season. Both starts are capable of putting together good games here today. I'll take the UNDER. |
|||||||
05-23-22 | Blue Jays v. Cardinals -112 | 3-7 | Win | 100 | 5 h 25 m | Show | |
The Toronto Blue Jays won two of their three over the Reds, losing the last game on Sunday, 2-3. The Jays haven't scored more than three runs in any of their last five games. Joe Berrios gets the start today. Berrios is 3-2 in his eight starts this year, with a 4.83 ERA and 1.488 WHIP. St Louis improved to 23-18 after winning three straight games over the Pirates. They outscored Pittsburgh 28-11 in that set. Miles Mikolas will start today with a 3-2 record and 1.68 ERA. Mikolas hasn't allowed more than two runs in any of his eight starts this year. I like the Cards here tonight. Play St Louis. |
|||||||
05-23-22 | Tigers v. Twins UNDER 8 | 4-5 | Loss | -100 | 5 h 20 m | Show | |
The Detroit Tigers are tied for last in the AL Central with the KC Royals, both teams with a 14-26 record. The Tigers did snap a three game losing streak with a win on Sunday over the Guradians, 4-2. They have a 1-6-1 O/U record in their last eight games, partly thanks to scoring one run in three straight games. Eduardo Rodriguez starts today for the Tigers with a 1-3 record and 4.38 ERA. He's pitched well in his last three starts, allowing a total of four runs in 14 innings. Meanwhile the division leading Twins have won four straight games to improve to 25-16. The pitching has been very good. Chris Archer will go today with a 0-1 record in his seven starts. Archer has a 4.10 ERA. However, most of those came in a five run game on May 5. Other than that game, Archer has allowed two runs or fewer in every other starts. I'm taking UNDER today. |
|||||||
05-23-22 | Orioles v. Yankees UNDER 7.5 | 6-4 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 45 m | Show | |
The Baltimore Orioles have won three of the last four games and improved to 17-23 on the season. They are still last in the AL East and likely will remain there the entire season. Jordan Lyles will start today for the O's. He's 2-4 in his eight starts with a 4.11 ERA. He's pitched well of late, allowing more than two earned runs just once in his last four games. The Division leading Yankees look to snap a two-game losing streak. They lost two of their last three to the White Sox and scored just one run in those two games. Gerrit Cole will start today with a 4-0 record in his eight starts and a 2.89 ERA. Cole has has not allowed more than three runs in any of his eight starts this year. I look for a low scoring contest here today. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
05-22-22 | Twins v. Royals UNDER 8 | 7-6 | Loss | -115 | 4 h 58 m | Show | |
The Minnesota Twins look to extend their win streak to four games here today as they look for the sweep in Kansas City. The Twins will start Bailey Ober today who is 1-1 in his four starts with a 2.75 ERA. After his first start where he allowed four runs to the Mariners, Ober has allowed just two total runs in his next three starts. The Royals have lost three straight games and five of their last seven games. Brady Singer looks to get them back on track today. Singer has only one start and that was a fine one. Singer went seven strong innings against the White Sox, allowing just four hits and no runs with no walks and nine KO's for the 2-1 win. I look for a low scoring game here today with two pitchers that have pitched great of late. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
05-22-22 | Tigers v. Guardians UNDER 7 | 4-2 | Win | 105 | 4 h 48 m | Show | |
The Detroit Tigers look to snap a 3-game losing streak here today at Cleveland. The Indians are just 13-26 overall on the season and in last place in the AL Central. Alex Faedo will start for the Tigers with a 0-1 record in his three starts but a nice 2.87 ERA. Faedo has not allowed more than two runs in any of his three starts this season. The Cleveland Guardians are trying to claw their way back to the .500 mark in the AL Central. Right now, only Minnesota has a record over .500 in the division. The Guardians snapped a three game losing streak with their win here on Saturday. They will start Shane Bieber today who is 1-2 in his seven starts. Bieber has a 3.96 ERA with a 1.267 WHIP. Bieber had his worst start of the season, allowing seven runs to the Blue Jays but then bounced back with a six inning, one run performance against the Twins. I'm looking for a low scoring game today. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
05-22-22 | Mariners v. Red Sox UNDER 9.5 | 4-8 | Loss | -115 | 3 h 23 m | Show | |
The Seattle Mariners have dropped three-straight games to a 17-24 record and fourth place in the AL West. The Mariners have also lost five of their last six and could be swept here today by the Red Sox. Logan Gilbert will start for the M's with a 4-2 record and 2.60 ERA. Gilbert has been even better on the road where his is 3-1 with a 1.59 ERA. The Boston Red Sox have won four straight to improve to 18-22, but still are four games under the .500 mark. Nathan Eovaldi will start today with a 1-2 mark in his eight starts and a 4.32 ERA. Eovaldo had been doing great his lat five starts before his last one. He had given up just six runs in five games and then was blistered by the Astros for six runs over 1 2/3 innings in his last start. I look for Eovaldi to rebound here today and this game to go UNDER. |
|||||||
05-21-22 | A's +134 v. Angels | 3-5 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 30 m | Show | |
The Oakland A's took game one of this series with the Angels on Friday night, 4-2. That improved the A's to 17-24. The A's will turn to Frankie Montas here tonight. Montas is only 2-4 on the season, but still has a nice 3.67 ERA and 1.000 WHIP. Montas pitched very well in his last game, but took the loss to these Angels, 1-4. That loss came despite going six solid innings and allowing two runs and 12 KO's. The Angels have dropped out of 1st place in the AL West thanks to a four-game losing streak. The Houston Astros have taken over the division lead, 1.5 games ahead of the A's. The Angels will start Michael Lorenzen here today. Lorenzen is 5-2 in his six starts with a 3.57 ERA. Both pitchers are about even tonight, but with the Angels in the midst of a losing streak I'll take the live dog here in Oakland. |
|||||||
05-21-22 | Rangers v. Astros -1.5 | 1-2 | Loss | -120 | 17 h 55 m | Show | |
The Texas Rangers took game two of this series to even it at one game a piece with their win on Friday. The Rangers got a shutout win over the Astros, 3-0. The Rangers will start Jon Gray here today. Gray is 1-1 in his five starts this year with a 5.73 ERA. Gray is coming off a 5 2/3 inning outing vs the Angels where he allowed four runs and eight hits. The Astros were shut out for the first time since their game on April 20th. Justin Verlander will toe the rubber here today for the Astros. Verlander is 5-1 in his seven starts with a 1.38 ERA and 0.679 WHIP. Verlander has gone 13 innings without allowing a run and just three hits. Verlander is pitching great right now and I look for a bounce back here today with the Astros. I'll lay the Run Line with Houston. |
|||||||
05-21-22 | Padres +141 v. Giants | 2-1 | Win | 141 | 4 h 27 m | Show | |
The San Diego Padres look to extend their two game win streak here today at San Francisco. These two NL West titans are battling it out and the Padres took game one of this series on Friday, 8-7. The Padres have been the best road team in the NL this year at 15-7 away. The Padres will send Joe Musgrove to the hill today. Musgrove is 4-0 in his seven starts with a 2.20 ERA and 0.933 WHIP. Musgrove has not allowed more than two runs in any of his seven starts this year. The Giants dropped to third place in the division with two losses in a row. Carlos Rondon will start today with a 4-2 record in his seven starts and a 3.49 ERA. Rondon coming off his worst start of the year where he allowed 10 hits and eight runs over 3 2/3 innings to the Cardinals. Padres a very live dog here today on the road where they have flourished and with the better pitcher. Play San Diego. |
|||||||
05-21-22 | White Sox v. Yankees UNDER 9 | 5-7 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 50 m | Show | |
Game one of this series between the White Sox and Yankees was postponed on Friday. That means they pick up here today, but will only play a single game today, not a doubleheader. The White Sox made it to 19-19 with a win on Thursday over Kansas City. They are just the 2nd team in the AL Central to be at .500 or above with 1st place Minnesota at 22-16. The Sox will start Dallas Keuchel today with a 2-3 record and 5.88 ERA. Keuchel is coming off a very good start where he went five innings and allowed four hits and no runs to these Yankees. The Yankees have catapulted into 1st place in the AL East with a 28-10 record, now 5-games ahead of 2nd place Tampa Bay. Nestor Cortes will start today with a 2-1 record in his seven starts. Cortes has a very good 1.35 ERA and is slightly better at home with a 1.00 ERA in three starts. Cortes has not allowed more than two runs in any of his seven starts and has three games where he's allowed no runs. I'll take the UNDER here today in this matchup. |

05-20-22 | A's v. Angels UNDER 8 | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 15 m | Show | |
The Oakland A's and LA Angels begin their series here tonight from LA. Both teams come in off losses. The A's lost Wednesday to Minnesota, 4-14. That makes four of their last five games they have lost. Paul Blackburn makes the start here tonight for the A's. He's 4-0 in his seven starts with a nifty 1.67 ERA. He's been even better on the road with a 3-0 record and 0.83 ERA. He's also allowed two runs or fewer in six of his seven starts. The Angels are coming of a 3-game loss to the Rangers. Chase Silseth makes his second start of the season tonight. His first was excellent, going six innings vs these A's, allowing one hit and no runs for the win. I look for these teams to get back to some low scoring games. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
05-20-22 | Rangers +160 v. Astros | 3-0 | Win | 160 | 7 h 47 m | Show | |
The Rangers and Astros begin another Lone Star State battle here tonight from Houston. The Rangers are 17-20 and had their four-game win streak snapped by the Astros yesterday, 1-5. Martin Perez starts tonight with a 2-2 record and very nice 2.02 ERA. Perez has started two road games and has yet to allow an earned run. Perez has also not allowed more than one earned run in any of his last four starts. The Astros improved to 25-14 with their win last night and moved into 1st place in the AL West. Cristian Javier starts tonight with a 2-1 record in his three starts. He has a 5.79 ERA and 1.500 WHIP. The Rangers are pretty nice dogs here tonight and are a great value shot with Perez on the mound. I'll take that shot. Play Texas. |

05-19-22 | Yankees v. Orioles UNDER 8 | 6-9 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 28 m | Show | |
The Yankees look to sweep their series here today with the Orioles. They have taken the first three games with one over, one under and a push thus far. Today, Jordan Montgomery will start for the Yankees. Montgomery is 0-1 in his seven starts with a respectable 3.06 ERA. He's been even better on the road with a 2.21 ERA in four starts. Montgomery has been very consistent too, allowing two runs or fewer in each of his last six starts. The Orioles have now lost six straight games. During that losing streak they have scored more than three runs just one time and that was four runs. Bruce Zimmermann will get the start today. He's been the best the O's have had thus far with a 2-2 record in seven starts and a 1.98 ERA an 1.80 home ERA. Zim has not allowed more than two runs in any of his seven starts this season. Looks to be a low scoring affair with these two pitchers on the hill. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
05-18-22 | Astros v. Red Sox UNDER 9 | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 27 m | Show | |
The Astros and Red Sox have split their three game series thus far with Boston taking game one on Monday and the Astros taking last night's contest, 13-4. The Astros are just a game back of the Angels in the AL West in that two team division battle. Luis Garcia will start today for Houston with a 3-1 record in his six starts and a 2.94 ERA. He's been even better on the road with a 1.20 ERA in his three away outings. Garcia has also allowed just one run over his last 12 innings of work, winning both games with just four walks and 18 KO's. Meanwhile, the Red Sox are in last place in the AL East. The Sox will turn to Nick Pivetta today who has had his problems with year. Pivetta is 1-4 in seven starts with a 5.08 ERA. He's been even worse at Fenway where he is 0-3 with a 6.75 ERA. The good new for Pivetta is that he's pitched well in his last two games, going 13 innings and allowing just one run with one walk and 12 KO's. If Pivetta has it back under control, which he looks to have done, then take the UNDER here tonight. |

05-18-22 | Braves v. Brewers UNDER 6.5 | 6-7 | Loss | -115 | 2 h 26 m | Show | |
The Braves still trying to climb back to that .500 mark sit at 17-20 after winning Tuesday's contest at Milwaukee, 3-0. Both games thus far in this series have been low scoring with the Brewers winning on Monday 1-0 and the Braves on Tuesday, 3-0. I don't see that changing with Max Fried on the hill today for the Braves. Fried is 4-2 in seven games with a 3.14 ERA. The Brewers start their ACE in Corbin Burnes. Burnes has a 1-2 record despite a great ERA of just 1.77. Burnes has not allowed more than two runs in any of his last six games. Take the UNDER here today. |
|||||||
05-18-22 | Tigers v. Rays UNDER 7 | 1-6 | Push | 0 | 2 h 25 m | Show | |
Detroit had its four-game win streak snapped yesterday by the Rays, 1-8. That means the two teams have split this three game series with the rubber match here today. While yesterday's game went over, that was the only one to do so in the last six games. Eduardo Rodriquez will start today with a 1-2 record this year in his seven starts. He's pitched well though with a 3.72 ERA. He's also allowed just one run over his last two starts 13 2/3 innings. The Rays improved to 22-15 with their win on Tuesday. The Rays are in 2nd place behind the 27-9 Yankees. Drew Rasmussen will start today with a 3-1 record in his seven starts. Rasmussen has been very good with a 2.67 ERA and 1.72 home ERA. He's also allowed just one run in each of his last three starts and three total runs over his last four starts. I'll take today's game under the total. |
|||||||
05-17-22 | Astros v. Red Sox UNDER 8.5 | 13-4 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 31 m | Show | |
The Houston Astros dropped game one of this series with the Red Sox on Monday, 3-6. After an 11-game win streak, they have now lost two of their last three games. The Astros still have one of the best pitching staffs in baseball, including a bull pen that has just a 2.91 ERA. Jose Urquidy starts today with a 2-1 record after six starts and a 4.39 ERA. He's been very good of late, allowing just one run over his last two starts (nine innings) of work. The Boston Red Sox improved to 14-21 with their win on Monday. That was their third win in their last four games. Nathan Eovaldi toes the rubber today for teh Sox. Eovaldi is 1-1 in his seven starts with a 3.15 ERA. He's been very consistent this year, not allowing more than three runs in any single outing. I like both these pitchers to keep the score low. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
05-16-22 | Diamondbacks +212 v. Dodgers | 4-5 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 46 m | Show | |
The LA Dodgers snapped a four-game losing streak and salvaged the final game of their series with a win over the Phillies on Sunday, 5-4. The Dodgers pitching staff has been hit hard in recent games, allowing 33 runs over their last four games. Tony Gonsolin will get the start here today for the Dodgers. Gonsolin is 3-0 in his six starts with a 1.33 ERA. The Arizona Diamondbacks are 18-17 on the season and having a much better season than most had anticipated. The D'backs did lose two of their three games to the Cubs, including the last two games. All three games with the Cubs were decided by one run. Madison Bumgarner will start today for Arizona. Bumgarner has pitched very well this year with a 2-1 record and 1.78 ERA. He has not allowed more two runs in any of his seven starts. In fact, he has allowed one run or no runs in six of those starts. At this huge dog price today, I'll take a shot with a very good pitcher on the hill for Arizona. |

05-16-22 | Astros v. Red Sox UNDER 9 | 3-6 | Push | 0 | 9 h 46 m | Show | |
The Houston Astros had their 11-game win streak snapped on Saturday by Washington, 6-13. Then the Astros came right back and picked up with winning on Sunday with a 8-0 shutout of Washington. Today, Jake Odorizzi takes to the hill with a 3-2 record and 3.37 ERA. Odorizzi has pitched very well of late, going 11 2/3 innings allowing no runs. The Boston Red Sox took two of their three game series withe the Rangers over the weekend. Garrett Whitlock starts today after a 0-1 record in his four starts. Whitlock has a 3.00 ERA and 1.133 WHIP. Two decent pitchers here today, I'll take the UNDER tonight. |

05-15-22 | Red Sox v. Rangers -110 | 1-7 | Win | 100 | 4 h 49 m | Show | |
The Boston Red Sox look for the sweep here today in Texas. The Sox took game one and game two of this series by a combined 18-4 score. Lefty Austin Davis will get the start today for the Sox. Don't expect Davis to be more than in the role of an opener here today as he's not expected to last much past the 1st inning. Texas looks to salvage the rubber game here today with Martin Perez on the hill. Perez is 1-2 on the season with a 2.10 ERA. Perez has only allowed two earned runs over his last four starts (26 2/3 innings). With the Sox going with an opener that means they will rely on a bullpen that has been mediocre at best this year. I'll take the Rangers here today. |

05-15-22 | Orioles v. Tigers UNDER 7.5 | 1-5 | Win | 105 | 3 h 53 m | Show | |
The Baltimore Orioles have dropped two straight games to bring their record to 14-20 on the season. The Orioles hope to salvage the rubber game of this series with the Tigers after dropping the first two games. The O's have scored just two runs overall in this series thus far. Tyler Wells starts today for the O's with a 1-2 record and 3.75 ERA. Wells has pitched very good of late, allowing just two total runs over his last two starts (11 innings). In fact, the Wells has not allowed over two runs in any of his last five games. The Tigers look to sweep the series today with Tarik Skubal on the hill. Skubal is 2-2 in his six starts with a 2.41 ERA. Skubal has allowed just two runs over his last two starts (13 innings). I look for this game to go UNDER. |

05-15-22 | Astros -1.5 v. Nationals | Top | 8-0 | Win | 100 | 5 h 60 m | Show |
The Houston Astros had their 11-game win streak snapped on Saturday by Washington, 6-13. The Astros pitching must have taken the day off after shutting out three of their previous five opponents. The win streak brought the team to within 1-game of the AL West leading Angels. Right now it's a two-team race in the AL West with the other three teams all below the .500 mark. Justin Verlander takes the hill today and is looking like his old Cy Young self. Verlander is 4-1 in six starts with a 1.55 ERA. He's been even better on the road with a 3-1 mark and 0.64 ERA. Washington is just 12-23 on the season and in last place in the NL East. The Nats are 3-7 over their last 10-games. Pat Corbin will start today and he's been in bad shape all season. Corbin is 0-5 in his seven starts with a 6.06 ERA. I don't see the Astros losing this game, but I'll have to lay the Run Line with the big price on their heads. Play Houston Run Line. |

05-14-22 | Red Sox v. Rangers UNDER 8.5 | 11-3 | Loss | -120 | 8 h 41 m | Show | |
Boston improved to 12-20 overall with their win in the opening game of this series with the Rangers, 7-1. Rich Hill will get the call today for the Red Sox. Hill is 0-1 in his five starts, but has a solid 2.86 ERA. In fact, Hill has been very hot of late, allowing NO runs over his last three starts (13 innings). The Texas Rangers are just 13-18 overall and have alternated win/loss over their last eight games. Glenn Otto will start today with a 1-0 record in three starts and a 3.14 ERA. This looks to be another low scoring game with Hill on the mound for the Red Sox. Take UNDER |

05-14-22 | Brewers v. Marlins UNDER 7 | 3-9 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 45 m | Show | |
The Milwaukee Brewers improved to 21-12 with their win over Miami in the opening game of this series, 2-1. The Brewers sit in 1st place in the NL Central, 3.5 games ahead of St Lous and after that no team is even at the .500 mark. Eric Lauer starts today and is 3-0 in his five starts with a very nice 1.82 ERA and 0.944 WHIP. Since his opening start where Lauer gave up three runs, he has allowed just three total runs over his next four starts. The Marlins dropped to 14-18 with their loss on Friday. The fish have now lost four of the last five and 10 of their last 12. Trevor Rogers gets the start and he's 1-4 with a 5.00 ERA. Rogers did pitch very well in his last start, going five inning and allowing no runs. I like today's game UNDER. |

05-14-22 | Orioles v. Tigers UNDER 7.5 | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 6 h 45 m | Show | |
Baltimore dropped to 14-19 with their loss to the Tigers in game one of this series on Friday, 2-4. That was the team's second under in a row and the fourth in the last five games. Bruce Zimmermann has been very good this year and will toe the rubber today. Zim is 2-1 in his six starts with a 1.78 ERA. He has not allowed more than two runs in any of his six starts and has three games where he hasn't allowed a single run. The Tigers got to 10-23 with that win on Friday. The Tigers have gone under in eight of their last 10 games with one push. They have also scored two runs or fewer in eight of their last 11 games. Michael Pineda gets the start today and is 1-2 in his four starts with a 3.43 ERA. In three of his four starts he's allowed two runs or fewer. This looks to be another low scoring affair for the Tigers. Take UNDER. |

05-13-22 | Blue Jays v. Rays +115 | 2-5 | Win | 115 | 5 h 53 m | Show | |
The Toronto Blue Jays look to snap a four-game losing streak here at Tampa Bay tonight. The Jays lost two to the Yankees and three of four to the Guardians. They have now lost five of their last six overall games. Yet, tonight they are the favorite at Tampa Bay. Kevin Gausman will start tonight and he's been very good, posting a 3-1 record in six starts with just a 2.13 ERA. Tampa Bay snapped a three-game losing steak last on Wednesday at the Angels. Even with those three losses, they have won seven of their last 10 games. Drew Rasmussen will start today. He's 3-1 in his starts with a 2.89 ERA. I consider both of these starters pretty equal and with that I'll take the hotter team here today. Play Tampa Bay. |

05-13-22 | Brewers v. Marlins UNDER 6.5 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 7 h 16 m | Show | |
The Brewers and Marlins begin a three-game set here on Friday from Miami. The Brewers are 20-12 on the season and in first place in the NL Central. The Brewers Ace, Corbin Burnes will start today. Despite have just one win and two losses, he's pitched very well with a 1.86 ERA and 0.802 WHIP. The Miami Marlins are 14-17 after snapping a three game losing streak with a win at Arizona on Wednesday, 11-3. Pablo Lopez gets the start today Lopez is 4-1 on the season and has an excellent 1.25 ERA and 0.889 WHIP. Lopez has allowed no runs in four of his six starts this season. Two of the best pitchers on the mound today, I'll take the UNDER. |

05-12-22 | Astros v. Twins UNDER 8.5 | 5-0 | Win | 100 | 5 h 45 m | Show | |
We've seen a bit of a shift recently from the Unders that dominated early in the season to more even now that overs have been catching up. Still, one team that continues to produce great unders is this Houston club. They did it again for me last night night with a 5-0 shutout of the Twins. Their pitching has been amazing during this eight game win streak. They have allowed no runs their last two games and no more than two runs in any of their last eight games (four shutouts). Meanwhile, their hitting hasn't been great but good enough. Luis Garcia stars today for the Astros with a 2-1 record in five starts and a 3.45 ERA. He is coming off an excellent start that saw him go seven innings, allow two hits and two runs. The Twins had their three game win streak snapped last night by the Astros. They have struggled at times to score runs with just seven total runs scored over the last four games. Josh Winder toes the rubber today and has a 2-0 record in his two start. Winder has yet to allow a run in his 12 innings of work with just five total his, 15 KO's and just one BB. Winder should keep this one low scoring again and I will be on the UNDER again tonight. |
