04-18-24 | Angels v. Rays OVER 8.5 | 1-2 | Loss | -110 | 2 h 25 m | Show | |
The LA Angels are 9-9 on the season and just a half game back of Texas for the AL West division lead. The Angels have a -5 run differential. They face the AL East Tampa Bay Rays. The Rays are 10-9 and ties for third in the division. Every team in the East division has at least a .500 record or better. These teams have split the first two games of this three game set. The Angels took yesterday's contest, 5-4, while the Rays won on Wednesday, 7-6. Both games have gone over. The Angels have gone over in three straight games and are 7-5 OV/UN on the road this season. The Rays have gone over in five straight games and are 9-4 O/U in their 13 home games. Ryan Pepiot will start for the Rays. He's 1-2 in his three starts with a 5.40 ERA and 1.020 WHIP. He's coming off a start where he went five innings and allowed five hits and four runs in a loss to the Giants. The Angels will send Griffin Canning to the hill today. Canning is 0-2 in his three starts with a 9.88 ERA and 1.829 WHIP. He's coming off a loss at Boston where he allowed nine hits and six runs over his four innings of work. Neither pitcher likely around long in this contest. I'll take the OVER. |

04-17-24 | Cardinals v. A's UNDER 8 | 3-6 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 10 m | Show | |
St Louis and Oakland playing a short 2-game set here as the Cardinals took game one on Tuesday, 3-2. Lance Lynn earned his first win in his second stint with the Cardinals. The A's had a season-low 3,296 fans as they play their last season in Oakland. The Cards improved to 9-9 on the season and while they are last in the NL Central, they are just two-games back of first place Milwaukee. They also have the only negative run differential in the division at -6. Steven Matz will get the start for the Red birds here on Wednesday. Matz is 1-0 in his three starts with a nifty 1.80 ERA and 1.333 WHIP. Oakland dropped to 7-11 on the season and they actually are not in last in the AL West. That belongs to the Houston Astros who are 6-13. Good news for the A's is that their Ace is back on the hill today. What can you say about poor Paul Blackburn. He will likely be trade bait before the deadline and rightfully so. Blackburn has started three games and while only 1-0, he's allowed NO RUNS and just 11 hits over his 19 1/3 innings of work. He also has 11 KO's and just three walks. To say he's been outstanding is an understatement. That being the case, neither team will likely get many runs here today. I'm taking UNDER in this game. |
|||||||
04-14-24 | Cardinals v. Diamondbacks UNDER 8.5 | 0-5 | Win | 102 | 5 h 18 m | Show | |
The St Louis Cardinals and Arizona Diamondbacks conclude their three game set here today. The teams have split their first two games with the Cardinals taking Friday's game, 9-6, and the D'back winning on Saturday, 4-2. The Cards are last in the NL Central with a 7-8 record. They also have a -4 run differential. Miles Mikolas will toe the rubber for the Cards today. Mikolas is 1-1 in his three starts with a 4.76 ERA. He's coming off a no decision vs the Phillies where he went 6 2/3 innings and allowed just six hits and two runs. The Arizona Diamondbacks are third in the NL West with a 7-8 record and +16 run differential. Zac Gallen will start for the D'back. Gallen is 2-0 in his three starts with a 2.25 ERA and 1.188 WHIP. He's allowed just one run over his first two starts and three runs to the Rockies in his last a start. Gallen looks to be in fine form early and I'll take the UNDER in today's game. Play the UNDER |
|||||||
04-13-24 | Pirates v. Phillies UNDER 9 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 5 h 22 m | Show | |
Another rivalry game here on Saturday has the Pittsburgh Pirates taking on the Philadelphia Phillies. The two teams have split the first two games of this four game set with the Phillies winning on Thursday, 5-1, and the Pirates winning yesterday, 5-2. The Phillies are 7-7 and in 2nd in the NL East, two back of the Braves. The Pirates are 10-4 and tied with Milwaukee for the NL Central lead. The Pirates will send Marco Gonzales to the hill today. Gonzales is 0-0 in his two starts with a 2.45 ERA and 1.000 WHIP. He's allowed nine hits and three runs over his 11 innings of work. The Phils will send Spencer Turnbull to the hill. Turnbull is 1-0 in his two starts with a 0.00 ERA and 0.545 WHIP. Turnbull has been outstanding with just five his allowed and no earned runs over his 11 innings of work. In addition, he has 13 KO's to just one walk. Two very good pitchers on the hill today. First two games of the series have gone under, I look for that to continue here today. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
04-03-24 | Blue Jays v. Astros OVER 8.5 | 0-8 | Loss | -120 | 8 h 42 m | Show | |
The Toronto Blue Jays looks to get above the .500 mark today as they travel to Houston to play the struggling Astros. The Jays are 3-3 thus far and have allowed 31 runs while scoring 25 for a -6 run differential. The Jays are coming off a win at Houston yesterday, 2-1, after trailing most of the game. They lost the opener to the Astros 0-10. They will start Chris Bassitt for the second time this season. Bassitt is 0-1 after losing at Tampa Bay in his first start, 2-8. Bassitt went five innings and allowed six hits and five runs. Houston thought maybe their early struggles were over after a 0-4 start to the season. They beat Toronto 10-0 in game one of this series but then lost last night 1-2. Cristian Javier will get his second start tonight. He got a no decision in after his first start vs the Yankees. Javier went six inning and allowed four hits and no runs in that start. The Astros have scored 22 runs with 10 of those coming last night. They are -1 in run differential for the season. I'm taking the over here today as the Astros look to get back to winning. Play OVER. |
|||||||
04-02-24 | Red Sox v. A's OVER 8 | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 19 m | Show | |
The Oakland A's are the lame duck of baseball. They will be waiting to move to Las Vegas. However, in the meantime they have to endure the wrath of the home town fans. In fact, those fans have been boycotting A's games as attendance is that of a minor league game at best. The A's have given up the 2nd most runs thus far in baseball at 38. Only the Padres have given up more. The A's are just 1-4 to start the season and coming off a 0-9 loss to Boston yesterday. Alex Wood makes his second start of the season. Wood opened the season with a loss to Cleveland, 0-8. He went just 3 1/3 innings and gave up seven hits and six runs. He will face the Red Sox who are 3-2 thus far and coming off that win over the A's yesterday. Brayan Bello will make his second start this year. Bello opened the season with a win over Seattle, 6-4. Bellow went five innings and allowed five hits and two runs. I look for a high scoring game here on Tuesday as the A's allow a lot of runs thus far. Take the OVER. |
|||||||
10-27-23 | Diamondbacks v. Rangers OVER 8.5 | 5-6 | Win | 100 | 8 h 15 m | Show | |
Game one of the World Series. Both teams had to win game seven on the road. The Rangers won all four games in Houston while the Diamondbacks won games six and seven in Philly. Zac Gallen gets the nod here in game one for Arizona. Gallen is 19-11 overall on the season with a 3.64 ERA. Gallen is 2-2 in the playoffs, winning his first two game and then losing both games against Philly Ace Zack Wheeler in the NLDS. He allowed 13 runs over his four playoff starts (22 23/ innings), striking out 13 and walking nine. Nathan Eovaldi will start for the Rangers with his 16-5 overall record and 3.44 ERA. Eovaldi is 4-0 in the playoffs, going 26 innings and allowing seven total runs. He also has just four walks with 28 KO's. I like Eovaldi a lot here in game one. We have to fade a price in the -1.60 range, but what choice do we have at this point. Play the Rangers .I look for Gallen to struggle here tonight against this Texas lineup. Should be plenty of runs on the Texas side here. Play the Rangers and the OVER. |
|||||||
10-07-23 | Diamondbacks v. Dodgers UNDER 8 | 11-2 | Loss | -110 | 22 h 36 m | Show | |
The Arizona Diamondbacks swept the Milwaukee Brewers in the Wild Card round of the NL playoffs. Now it's on to LA to face the Dodgers in a best of five Divisional series. Arizona beat Milwaukee 6-3 in game one and 5-2 in games two, going under one game and pushing the total in the other game. Merrill Kelly will make his first postseason appearance here on Saturday. Kelly was 12-8 in the regular season with a 3.39 ERA. He struggled a bit down the stretch, going 2-3 in his last seven starts with a 4.35 ERA. The Dodgers got to 100 wins on the final day of the regular season with a win over the Giants, 5-2. It wasn't sure who would start game one of the Dodgers, but they are going with veteran lefty Clayton Kershaw. Kershaw was 13-5 on the season with a 2.46 ERA. He was 3-1 in his last seven starts with a 2.30 ERA. In fact, Kershaw allowed just two runs over his last three starts (14 1/3 innings). Kershaw looks in fine form and Kelly is one of the D'backs best. I'll take the UNDER here in game one. |
|||||||
09-22-23 | Mariners v. Rangers OVER 9.5 | 5-8 | Win | 100 | 8 h 40 m | Show | |
It's a heck of a race in the AL West with Houston leading by a half game over the Rangers and Mariners. That makes this series between these two teams very big. Tampa Bay has the top AL Wildcard locked up, but Toronto, Texas and Seattle are all a half game within each other for that 2nd and final wildcard spot. Bryce Miller starts for the Mariners with a 8-5 record in 23 starts and a 3.88 ERA. He's a bit worse on the road with a 3-3 record and 4.59 ERA. The Rangers will counter with Dane Dunning who is 8-6 in his 23 starts and a 3.70 ERA. He has a 4.14 ERA and a 1-2 record over his last seven starts. I'm taking the OVER between these two playoff battling teams. |
|||||||
09-21-23 | Braves v. Nationals OVER 9 | 10-3 | Win | 100 | 19 h 48 m | Show | |
The Braves and Nationals begin their last set against each other this season with Thursday's contest at Washington. The Braves lost on Wednesday at home to Philadelphia in 10 innings, 5-6. The Braves have now lost five of their last six games. The only thing the Braves have left to play for is home field advantage and they lead the Dodgers by four games. Thing is, do you want home field? The winner likely plays a very dangerous Philadelphia team if they win their Wild Card series. The Nats are playing out the season and would like nothing more than to beat the best of the N.L. Washington has won three of their last four games. They will start Jake Irvin today who his 3-6 in his 23 starts with a 4.41 ERA. The Braves counter with Max Fried who is 7-1 in his 13 starts with a 2.64 ERA. That number has been a bit higher in his last seven starts with a 3.40 ERA. Even though Fried is a very good pitcher, his games have gone over in four straight and six of the last seven. I'll take OVER here on Thursday. The Nationals won at home over the White Sox on Wednesday, 13-3. |
|||||||
09-18-23 | White Sox v. Nationals OVER 9 | 6-1 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 18 m | Show | |
Washington coming off a win in 10 innings at Milwaukee on Sunday, 2-1. The White Sox were shut out at home on Sunday by the Twins, 0-4. Both teams officially eliminated from the playoffs, just looking to play out the season now. The Sox will start Mike Clevinger who is 7-8 in his 21 starts with a 3.61 ERA. The Nats will start Joan Adon tonight who is 2-2 in his seven starts with a 6.00 ERA. Both teams should score some runs with the Nationals pitching Adon. I'll take the OVER on Monday. |
|||||||
09-13-23 | Royals v. White Sox OVER 9 | 7-1 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 24 m | Show | |
Two teams not going anywhere this postseason meet for the final time as the White Sox host the Royals. The Royals took game one of the series 11-10 and then lost yesterday, 2-6. The Royals called up Steven Cruz from Triple-A Omaha to start tonight's contest. Cruz likely just an opener here today. Cruz has been on the big club before, giving up four runs in five innings in late August. Don't expect Cruz more than an inning or two. The Bullpen has a 5.30 ERA so that isn't great news either. The Sox will stick with a conventional starter in Mike Clevinger who is 7-7 in his 20 starts with a respectable 3.64 ERA. I expect the Royals to all quite a bit of runs here today. Take the OVER. |
|||||||
09-12-23 | Cardinals v. Orioles OVER 10 | Top | 5-2 | Loss | -115 | 19 h 45 m | Show |
These teams playing the second of their set here on Tuesday after the Orioles took game one on Monday, 11-5. The Cardinals had gone over in six straight before a couple of Unders vs the Reds. The Overs got back on track last night with 16 total runs scored. Adam Wainwright has had a tough year for the Cardinals at 3-11 with a 8.19 ERA. Hard to believe he's been even worse of late, going 0-7 in his last seven starts with a 9.74 ERA. John Means will make his first start for the Orioles after joining the team in Boston over the weekend. Means makes his first MLB start in nearly 17 months here on Tuesday. Means, a one time All-Star, was runner up to rookie of the year in 2019. This will be a big test for the young pitcher to see if he's making it back from his long recovery from surgery. For me, I'll wait and see. But no matter what, Wainwright has been horrible and I'll take the OVER here on Tuesday. |
|||||||
09-11-23 | Padres v. Dodgers OVER 9.5 | 11-8 | Win | 100 | 10 h 43 m | Show | |
The San Diego Padres visit Chavez Ravine to face the LA Dodgers in what many thought would be a late season battle for the NL West. But a poor season by the Padres have them 21 games back of the Dodgers. They have also lost two straight games. The Dodgers were red hot out of the All-Star break, but have cooled down a bit, going 4-6 in their last 10 games. They have a comfortable 13-game lead over Arizona though in the division. The Padres will start Pedro Avila who is 1-2 in his four starts with a 3.50 ERA. He has two starts on the road and is 0-1 with a 6.48 ERA. The Dodgers will start Gavin Stone who will make his fourth start today. He's had issues in his prior three, allowing 16 total runs for a 14.40 ERA. Walks have also been a issue with seven free passes in just 10 innings. Two good hitting teams and two suspect pitchers on the hill. I'll take OVER tonight. |
|||||||
09-09-23 | Cardinals v. Reds OVER 10.5 | 4-3 | Loss | -110 | 20 h 33 m | Show | |
The St Louis Cardinals continue their torrid tear with the bats. The Cardinals just came off a 3-game set vs the Braves where they scored 26 runs and went over all three games. They opened vs the Reds on Friday and it was another hit fest with nine more runs and another over. That put a dent into the Reds playoff hopes as they are close to Milwaukee in the NL Central and within a game of the NL Wildcard. The Cardinals will start Zack Thompson here on Saturday with a 2-2 record with a 3.60 ERA. The Reds will start Carson Spiers who has no record after one start and a 6.75 ERA. Don't really care who pitches here on Saturday, I'm sticking with the hot bats of the Cardinals and taking the OVER. |
|||||||
09-08-23 | Cardinals v. Reds OVER 10 | Top | 9-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 53 m | Show |
The Cincinnati Reds have won seven of their last 10 games and still within striking distance of 1st place Milwaukee in the NL Central. The Reds trail by just two games. They are also in the hunt in the NL Wildcard race, just a half game back in those standings. So every game is big for the Reds. They face a Cardinals team that just took two of three games from the Braves and scored 26 runs in the three game set. The Cards have also gone over in five straight games, scoring at least five runs in each of those. The Cardinals start Drew Rom today who is 0-2 in his three starts with a 7.24 ERA. The Reds will start Andrew Abbott who is 8-4 in 17 starts with a 3.22 ERA. Not quite so good lately, going 2-2 in his last seven starts with a 5.67 ERA. I'm sticking with the OVER in these Cardinals games as they continue to hit the ball well with little pitching on the other end. Play OVER. |
|||||||
09-07-23 | Cardinals v. Braves OVER 10.5 | 5-8 | Win | 100 | 9 h 18 m | Show | |
Yikes! What in the world is going on with the Braves. Did they change uniforms with the A's or something?? The Braves have gotten their butts kicked the last two nights by the Cardinals. Both games the Braves were North of a two dollar favorite and they gave up 10 runs on Tuesday and 11 runs on Wednesday. They fell way behind in both games and never came close. Even their Ace, Striker, was rocked last night in a 6-11 loss after the Cards jumped out to a 5-0 lead. Today they start Max Fried who is 6-1 with a 2.52 ERA. Adam Wainwright will start for the Cardinals with a 3-10 record and 8.10 ERA. The way this series is going, I won't be surprised at all by the Cardinals scoring big again here tonight. I'll just play the OVER. |
|||||||
09-06-23 | White Sox v. Royals OVER 9.5 | 6-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 7 m | Show | |
Wild game between these two teams on Tuesday as the Royals rallied in the bottom of the 9th inning for two runs to beat the White Sox, 7-6. The Sox jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the 2nd inning but couldn't hold on as the Royals chipped away and finally won. Neither team going anywhere this postseason so these games are just for enjoyment right now. That doesn't mean there isn't money to be made. The White Sox start Touki Toussaint who is 2-7 in his 11 starts with a 5.54 ERA. He's been slightly worse on the road with a 2-3 record and 6.35 ERA. It's been a rough season for Royals starter Jordan Lyles. Lyles is 4-15 in 26 starts with a 6.17 ERA. He's been slightly better at home where he is 2-6 with a 4.81 ERA. Either way, two bad pitchers on two bad teams with bad bullpens. I'll take the OVER and let them score at will today. |
|||||||
09-01-23 | Red Sox v. Royals OVER 9.5 | 2-13 | Win | 100 | 21 h 55 m | Show | |
 Both these clubs had Monday off as they begin this set from Kansas City. The Red Sox have no shot in the AL East as they trail by 14 1/2 games. The Wildcard isn't too easy either as they trail by 6.5 games. The Royals are one of the two AL teams already eliminated from the playoffs. James Paxton will start for the Red Sox with a 7-4 record in his 18 starts and a 3.99 ERA. He's been worse of late, going 2-2 in his last seven starts and a 4.80 ERA. He's also allowed 10 runs over his last two starts (8 1/3 innings). Jordan Lyles will start for the Royals with a 3-15 record and a 6.39 ERA. He's also been worse of late, going 2-4 in his last seven starts with a 7.71 ERA. I like this game to go OVER here on Friday. |
|||||||
08-29-23 | Astros v. Red Sox OVER 10 | Top | 6-2 | Loss | -113 | 9 h 22 m | Show |
It's a tight race in the AL West as one game separates the top three teams. One of those are the Houston Astros, who are 1 game back of the Seattle Mariners. The Mariners have surged into first place thanks to a 9-1 run. Meanwhile, Texas has been struggling to 2-8 their last 10 and Houston 5-5. The Red Sox are in 4th in the AL East, 13.5-games back of the Orioles. The Sox still have a shot at a AL Wildcard as they are 4.5-games back with four teams ahead of them. Houston will start J.P. France today. France is 8-5 in his 18 starts with a 3.62 ERA. He's coming off a horrible start, where he allowed 11 hits and 10 runs over just 2 1/3 innings to the Red Sox. Now he has to face them again here today. Boston will start Brayan Bellow who is 10-7 with a 3.56 ERA in 22 starts. He's been slightly higher with the ERA in his last seven starts, having a 4.46 mark. Both these teams can score as they both average five runs per game. The Houston bullpen has been bad of late, posting a 6.37 ERA in his last seven games. Boston has been even worse, allowing a 7.07 ERA over their last seven games. Two struggling pens and two very good scoring teams. I'll take the OVER today. |
|||||||
08-28-23 | Yankees v. Tigers OVER 8.5 | 4-1 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 4 m | Show | |
It's been a long time since the Yankees have been this far under .500 at this juncture of the season. Yet, here they sit at 62-67, 19 games back in the AL East. They have lost eight of their last 10 games and have the only negative run differential in the division at -20 runs. Detroit sits third in the AL Central, 7.5 games back of the Minnesota Twins in the AL Central. They can pretty much forget the AL Wildcard as they are 14 games back in that race. The Yankees will start Luis Severino today with a 3-7 record and a 6.97 ERA. He's been horrible on the road, posting a 0-5 record in eight starts and a 9.08 ERA. Reese Olson will toe the rubber for the Tigers with his 2-5 record in 12 starts and a 6.11 ERA. He's allowed 10 runs over his last two starts (7 2/3 innings). With these two starters on the hill today I'll be on the OVER. |
|||||||
08-27-23 | Rockies v. Orioles OVER 9 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -111 | 2 h 19 m | Show |
Interleague action has the Colorado Rockies playing on the East Coast at Baltimore. The Rockies have lost six games after dropping the first two of this series at the Orioles. The Orioles have taken both the first two games by the same score, 5-4. The Rockies have been a good over team, with a 8-1-1 O/U mark their last 10 games. The Rockies will start Ty Blach here today who is 1-1 in his six starts with a 3.25 ERA. The Orioles continue to lead the AL East by three games over the Rays. Baltimore has won four straight and seven of their last eight games. They are also 6-3-1 O/U in their last 10 games. Jack Flaherty makes his first start since Aug 15th. He is 8-8 in his 23 starts with a 4.73 ERA. He is coming off a bad start on the 15th where he allowed seven runs over three innings to the Padres. I like this one to go over today. Play OVER. |
|||||||
08-26-23 | Guardians v. Blue Jays UNDER 8.5 | 3-8 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 1 m | Show | |
The Guardians are losing ground in the AL Central as the now trail the Twins by six games. The news is even worse in the Wildcard as they are 11.5-games back. As for the Jays, they are in the race for the Wildcard, just 2.5 games back despite losing three straight games. The Guardians will start Logan T. Allen who is 6-6 in his 19 starts with a 3.31 ERA. He's been very good of late, allowing five total runs over his last four starts (23 innings). The Jays will start Hyun-Jin Ryu who is 2-1 in his four games since coming off the DL. Ryu had a rough outing in his first start, allowing four runs over five innings. However, Ryu has gotten his form back since then, allowing no runs over his lat three starts (14 innings). Both starters are very good and I'll be on the UNDER here today. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
08-25-23 | Guardians v. Blue Jays UNDER 8.5 | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 7 h 8 m | Show | |
The Cleveland Guardians have lost two straight games and six of their last 10 to drop six games back of the Minnesota Twins in the AL Central. The Toronto Blue Jays are 3rd in the AL East with a 70-58 record and have also lost two straight games as these teams begin their new set here on Friday. The Jays are just 1.5 games back in the AL Wildcard race and right now that looks their best avenue to make the postseason. The Guardians will start Tanner Bibee today who is 9-3 in hi 20 starts with a 3.01 ERA. He's been even better of late, going 4-1 in his last seven games with a 2.47 ERA. The Jays will start Chris Bassitt today who is 12-6 with a 3.92 ERA. He's also been good his last seven starts with a 4-1 record and 3.21 ERA. Two very good starters here today should keep this game lower scoring. Play the UNDER. |
|||||||
08-22-23 | Reds v. Angels OVER 9 | 4-3 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 45 m | Show | |
This game scratched from Monday because of lingering effects of tropical storm Hillary. They get it underway here tonight. The Cincinnati Reds have lost two straight games and six of their last 10 as they play today in this Interleague game at the LA Angels. The Reds are four games back of the Brewers in the NL Central and now trail the Cubs by one game for 2nd place. The Reds are just one game back in the NL Wildcard race. However, there are six teams all within 1 game of those top two spots. The LA Angels were buyers instead of sellers at the trade deadline as they were within striking distance of a playoff spot. That has change though as they are now in 4th in the AL West, 11.5-games back of the Rangers and 8.5 games back in the AL Wildcard race. The Reds will start Graham Ashcraft today who is 6-8 in his 23 starts with a 4.89 ERA. One of those players the Angels picked up was today's starter Lucas Giolito who has not done well in his short stint with the Halos. Overall he's 7-9 in his 25 starts with a 4.44 ERA. Last seven games he's 1-4 with a 7.12 ERA. I'll take the OVER here today. |
|||||||
08-21-23 | Red Sox v. Astros OVER 8.5 | 4-9 | Win | 100 | 13 h 47 m | Show | |
The Boston Red Sox look to keep their modest 3-game win streak going here today as they start a set at the Houston Astros. The Sox have also won seven of their last 10 starts and have a plus 36 run differential. While the Red Sox are 11-games back of the Orioles, they are just 3-games back in the AL Wildcard race. The Astros have lost three straight and missed a great opportunity to retake first place in the AL West. The Astros trail the Rangers by just 2.5-games but gained only a half game during the Rangers four-game losing streak. Good news is that Houston holds the 2nd AL Wildcard spot, a half game lead over Seattle. James Paxton starts for the Red Sox today with his 7-3 record in 16 starts and a 3.34 ERA. Those numbers are up of late with a 3-2 record in his last seven starts and a 4.21 ERA. The Astros will start Cristian Javier today who is 8-2 in his 23 starts and a 4.49 ERA. Like the Sox starter, his numbers get worse of late with a 1-1 record in his last seven starts and a 6.37 ERA. I'll take the OVER here today. |

08-20-23 | Mets v. Cardinals OVER 10 | Top | 3-7 | Push | 0 | 5 h 54 m | Show |
Two teams that this time of the year are usually figuring in the playoff picture just playing out the rest of the season at this point. The Mets are 58-66 and 23 games back in the AL East. Meanwhile, the Cardinals are in last in the AL Central. The Mets will start Carlos Carrasco today who is 3-6 on the season with a 6.40 ERA. He's been even worse lf late, going 1-3 in his last seven starts with a 7.18 ERA. The Cardinals will start Dakota Hudson who is 3-0 in his four starts with a 4.15 ERA. Not a lot to see on Hudson, though the team has won all four of his starts. I'm taking the OVER in this one on Sunday. |

08-17-23 | Mets v. Cardinals OVER 10 | 4-2 | Loss | -130 | 9 h 5 m | Show | |
Two teams not heading to the postseason meet here tonight as the St Louis Cardinals host the NY Mets. The Mets are 23.5-games back in the NL East while the Cardinals are in last in the NL Central, 11 games back. The Mets coming off a 2-1 series win over the Pirates and scored 19 runs in the three game set. Jose Quintana starts today with a 0-4 record and 3.03 ERA in his five starts. The Cardinals took two of three at home over the A's, scoring 13 runs in the first two games before getting shutout in game three, 0-8. Adam Wainwright will get the start today with a 3-7 record in his 15 starts and a very high 8.77 ERA. That number is horrible over his last seven starts, as he is 0-6 with a 14.87 ERA. I'm taking these two teams to score plenty of runs and go OVER the total. |
|||||||
08-16-23 | Brewers v. Dodgers UNDER 8.5 | 1-7 | Win | 100 | 13 h 32 m | Show | |
The Red-hot LA Dodgers look to run away with the NL West as they now lead the Giants by nine games after a 9-1 run. They beat the Milwaukee Brewers in game one of this series last night, 6-2. The Brewers are 3.5-games in first place in the NL Central. Wade Miley starts today for the Brewers and he's been one of their best this year. Miley is 6-2 in his 15 starts with a 2.90 ERA. He's been better of late, going 3-0 in his last seven starts with a 2.00 ERA. He's also allowed just two total runs over his last three starts (16 innings). Clayton Kershaw makes his second start since coming off the DL. He pitched well in his return to the rotation, going five innings vs the Rockies and allowing just three hits and one run. That win made Kershaw 10-4 on the season with a 2.51 ERA. He's been great at home with a 4-1 record in seven starts and a 1.71 ERA. I like both these pitchers and I'll take the UNDER here tonight at Chavez Ravine. |
|||||||
08-14-23 | Pirates v. Mets OVER 8.5 | 2-7 | Win | 100 | 9 h 4 m | Show | |
 The Pittsburgh Pirates are 11.5 games back in the NL Central behind Milwaukee Brewers. The news is a bit better in the NL Wildcard race as they sit 8.5-games back. However, with seven teams to climb over that doesn't look good either. The Mets cleaned house before the trade deadline as they sit 22.5 games back of the Braves in the NL East. They have also lost seven of their last 10 games. Little bit of question who the Pirates start today, but for it doesn't matter. I'm taking the over no matter who starts. Quinn Priester looks to be the likely candidate. Priester is 2-1 in five starts with a 8.75 ERA. Carlos Carrasco will start for the Mets with a 3-6 record in his 17 starts and a 6.42 ERA. Either way, either starter, take the OVER. |
|||||||
08-12-23 | A's v. Nationals OVER 9.5 | 2-3 | Loss | -102 | 8 h 22 m | Show | |
A battle of last place teams here on Saturday has the AL West last place Oakland A's taking on the NL East last place Washington Nationals. The Nationals have a bullpen that has allowed a 5.01 ERA this year. That doesn't bode well for starter Jake Irvin. Irvin is 3-5 on the season with a 5.04 ERA. Irvin has gone into the 6th inning twice in his last six starts. The A's bullpen isn't any better with a 5.48 ERA and a road mark of 6.28. Luis Medina will start for the A's with a 2-7 record and 5.55 ERA. Two average to poor starters and neither backed up with a good pen. I'll take the OVER here today. |
|||||||
08-10-23 | Royals v. Red Sox OVER 10.5 | 0-2 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 12 m | Show | |
 Two last place teams face off here today as the last place AL East Red Sox host the last place AL Central Royals. Boston has won two of the three games in this series after Wednesday's 4-3 win. The Sox will start James Paxton who is 6-3 in his 14 starts with a 3.60 ERA. The Royals made a early Thursday pitching change to Austin Cox. Cox is 0-1 in his two starts with a 7.55 ERA. Cox has allowed seven runs in his 8 2/3 innings but has six walks against just six KO's. Cox hasn't made it out of the fifth inning in either start. That likely means the Royals will rely on their pen a lot here today and that has not been good. The pen has a 8.10 ERA over their last seven games and a 5.26 ERA on the season. The Boston bullpen isn't much better, especially lately where they have a 9.00 ERA over the last seven games. This one has all the appearances of an over play today. Play OVER. |
|||||||
08-09-23 | Cubs v. Mets OVER 9 | 3-4 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 31 m | Show | |
The Chicago Cubs beat the Mets on Tuesday 3-2, snapping a three game over run. They are 59-55 and in 2nd in the NL Central, just 1.5-games back of the Brewers. They are also the only team in the division with a positive run differential (+67). The Mets are just playing out the season as they are 21-games back in the NL East and 7.5 games back in the Wild Card. They have eight teams ahead of them in the Wild Card. And, they cleaned the roster of high priced talent at the trade deadline. Kyle Hendricks starts today for the Cubs with a 4-6 record and 4.21 ERA. That number goes up of late with a 1-3 record in his last seven starts and a 5.44 ERA. He is coming off a game vs the Braves where he went just four innings and gave up eight hits and seven runs. The Mets start David Peterson who is 2-7 in his 12 starts with a 6.12 ERA. Peterson has pitched better of late, going 1-4 in his recent seven starts and a 5.12 ERA. However, neither pitcher all that good and I'll take the OVER here today. |
|||||||
08-08-23 | Braves v. Pirates OVER 10 | Top | 8-6 | Win | 100 | 17 h 10 m | Show |
The Braves and Pirates play game two of this set here on Tuesday as the Bucs took Monday's game from the Braves, 7-6. The Braves have a huge cushion in the AL East as they lead by 10-games over the Phillies. The Braves also have the second best run differential in baseball at +162. The Bucs are fourth in the NL Central, nine games back of the Brewers. They are also 7.5-games back in the NL Wild Card race with a lot of teams in front of them. The Braves will start Yonny Chirinos today who is 2-2 in his six starts with a 6.67 ERA. The Bucs will counter with Mitch Keller who is 9-8 in his 23 starts and a 4.35 ERA. He's been worse of late, going 1-5 in his last seven starts and a 6.58 ERA. He's allowed 24 runs over his last four starts 21 2/3 innings. Don't expect either of pitchers to be around long. I'm taking the OVER. |
|||||||
08-06-23 | Dodgers v. Padres OVER 9 | 8-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 17 m | Show | |
The Dodgers and Padres have split the first two games of this four game set from San Diego. The Dodgers used a big, late rally on Friday to win and the Padres returned the favor on Saturday. The Padres trailed 1-3 in the eighth inning before scoring seven runs to win the game, 8-3. That snapped a five-game winning streak by the Dodgers over the Padres. The Padres are now three-games back in the NL Wild Card race. The Dodgers will start newly acquired Lance Lynn. Lynn makes his second start for the Dodgers after beating Oakland in his LA debut, 7-3 for the win. The Padres will also show off their new arm in Rich Hill. Hill brings a 7-10 record over to the Padres with a 4.84 ERA. Both games have been high scoring with 15 runs on Friday and 11 runs on Saturday. The Dodgers have gone over in four straight games while the Padres have seen two of their last three go over. I don't think either of these pitchers will go much past five in this one. I'll take the OVER. |
|||||||
08-04-23 | Rockies v. Cardinals OVER 9.5 | 9-4 | Win | 100 | 19 h 52 m | Show | |
The Rockies travel to St Louis to being this set with the Cardinals. The Rockies have lost two straight games and are in last place in the NL West. They also have the worst run differential (-160) in the National league. The St Louis Cardinals are also in last place in the NL Central. They will send Adam Wainwright to the hill today. Wainwright is 3-5 with a 7.18 ERA in 13 starts. He's 1-4 in his last seven starts with a 8.42 ERA. The Rockies will star Chris Flexen who is 0-5 this year with a 10.71 ERA. Two bad pitchers on two last place teams. That's a recipe for a lot of runs here on Friday. Play the OVER. |
|||||||
08-03-23 | Diamondbacks v. Giants OVER 8.5 | 0-1 | Loss | -119 | 6 h 52 m | Show | |
NL West clash here has the 3rd place Arizona Diamondbacks taking on the 2nd place SF Giants. The Giants have taken the first two games in this series with excellent pitching. The Giants have won six of their last 10 while the D'backs have lost seven of their last 10. Arizona starts Brandon Pfaadt today who is 0-4 in his eight starts with a 8.19 ERA. The Giants start Scott Alexander who is 0-1 in his three starts with a 5.39 ERA. While the first two games have been of a pitching duel, I look for tonight's to have plenty of runs. Take the OVER. |
|||||||
07-24-23 | Reds v. Brewers OVER 9 | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -119 | 8 h 13 m | Show |
 NL Central clash here today has the top two teams in the division playing for first place. The Milwaukee Brewers are in 1st place, but only by a half game over the Reds. The Reds have won five straight games to pull within a half game. Still, both teams have run differentials in the negative values. The Reds will start Graham Ashcraft here today. Ashcraft is 5-7 in his 18 starts with a 5.76 ERA. The Brewers start Colin Rea with a 5-4 record in his 16 starts and a 4.57 ERA. Both teams can hit the ball and neither pitcher is all that good. I'll take the OVER here today. |
|||||||
07-17-23 | Dodgers v. Orioles OVER 9 | 6-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 10 m | Show | |
The Dodgers dropped their third game vs the Mets on Sunday in extra innings, 1-2, snapping their six-game winning streak. The streak did put the Dodgers back into first place with a 1.5-game lead over the Giants and 2-games over Arizona. The Orioles are still chasing Tampa Bay in the AL East, now just one-game back of the Rays. The O's are the top AL Wild Card team too, holding a nice six-game cushion. LA will start Emmet Sheehan today who is 2-0 in his four starts with a 4.35 ERA. That number goes up in his one road start to 5.40 ERA. The O's start Grayson Rodriguez today who is 2-2 in his 10 starts with a 7.35 ERA. That number is 9.56 ERA in his five home starts. I look for plenty of runs to be scored here today. Play the OVER. |
|||||||
07-11-23 | National League v. American League UNDER 7.5 | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 7 h 55 m | Show | |
This series has been a under series for a long time now. The Oddsmaker has dropped this number to 7.5 under knowing just that. So there isn't a lot of value left in the number since you don't find many games under at least a 7 any more. Last year the AL won 3-2, going UNDER. In 2021 the AL won 5-2 with the UNDER or some pushes. No game was played in the 2020 Covid year. In fact, only the 2018 game (14 runs) and the 2014 (8 runs) and 2015 game (9 runs) have really been higher scoring games. Five of the last six games would have gone under this posted total tonight. For me, not a lot of value in any of the lines, but for fun we'll take the UNDER tonight. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
07-06-23 | Rangers v. Red Sox UNDER 10 | 6-10 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 60 m | Show | |
The Texas Rangers and Boston Red Sox have split the first two games of this series with the Rangers taking game one and the Sox taking game two yesterday, 4-2. Both gams have gone under. The Rangers lead in the AL West has dropped to 2-games over the surging Houston Astros. The Red Sox have climbed over the .500 mark in the AL East at 44-43. Every team in the AL East has a winning record and plus run differential. The Rangers will start Nathan Eovaldi today who is 10-3 in his 17 starts with a 2.64 ERA. He's coming off a very nice start over Houston where he allowed no runs over seven innings for the win. Kutter Crawford will toe the rubber for the Red Sox with his 3-3 record in eight starrts and 5.30 ERA. If you throw out the seven runs in his first start, he hasn't allowed more then four runs in any start. Moreover, he's allowed two runs or fewer in five of those eight starts. I'm going to take UNDER here today with two above average pitchers. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
07-05-23 | Pirates v. Dodgers OVER 9 | Top | 4-6 | Win | 100 | 13 h 39 m | Show |
The Pirates and Dodgers have split the first two games of this series from LA with the Dodgers taking game one and the Pirates game two on Tuesday, 9-7. The Dodgers are back in 2nd place in the NL West, 2.5-games back of the Diamondbacks. Despite going just 5-5, the Dodgers have gained some ground thanks to a 4-6 run by the Diamondbacks. The Pirates have passed the Cubs in the NL Central as they moved into third place, 6.5-games back of the Reds. Osvaldo Bido will get his fifth start of the season here on Wednesday. Bido is 0-1 with a 4.74 ERA. The Dodgers will counter with Bobby Miller who is 4-1 in his seven starts and a 4.23 ERA. That number goes up a bit at home to 5.81. Neither pitcher all that great with the ERA and for me that's an OVER play here on Wednesday. |
|||||||
07-05-23 | Rangers v. Red Sox UNDER 9.5 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 9 h 38 m | Show | |
 The 1st Place Texas Rangers are 51-35 and have 4-6 over their last 10 games. They won yesterday over the Red Sox, 6-2. The Rangers have the best run differential in baseball at +159 runs. The Red Sox are 43-43 and in last in the AL East. They have lost six of their last 10 and like every other team in the AL East, they have a positive run differential. The Rangers will start Jon Gray tonight with his 6-4 record in 15 starts and a 3.21 ERA. His road numbers are even better at 4-1 in seven starts with a 1.99 ERA. Brayan Bello will start today for the Sox. Bello is 5-5 with a 3.08 ERA. He's been excellent of late, allowing just three total runs over his last three starts (20 2/3 innings). I like both these pitchers tonight and will go with the UNDER. |
|||||||
06-30-23 | Red Sox v. Blue Jays UNDER 9 | 5-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 27 m | Show | |
Reason: The Boston Red Sox have dropped four straight and six of their last 10 to fall below the .500 mark at 40-41. They are the only team in the AL East to fall below .500. Though all five teams still have positive run differentials. The Blue Jays are just one spot ahead of the Sox at 44-37 and 10 back of the Rays. They are coming off a win over the Giants on Thursday, 2-1. The Sox will James Paxton who is 3-1 in his eight starts with a 3.19 ERA. Jose Berrios will start for the Blue Jays with a 8-5 record in his 16 starts and a 3.60 ERA. That number goes down at home where he is 4-1 in six starts and a 2.48 ERA. Both pitchers are solid here today and I'll be on the UNDER in this one. |
|||||||
06-28-23 | Reds v. Orioles OVER 9.5 | Top | 11-7 | Win | 100 | 8 h 14 m | Show |
The Cincinnati Reds took Tuesday's contest from the Baltimore Orioles even with a slight rain delay, 3-1. The Reds continue to hold onto 1st place in the NL Central with a 42-38 record and 1/2 game lead over the Brewers. The Reds are the only 1st place team in baseball with a negative run differential as their sits at -20 runs. The AL East 2nd place Orioles have a +30 run differential as they chase first place Tampa Bay. Good news is they sit atop the Wild Card standings in the AL with a 5.5-game lead over the Yankees and Angels. The Reds will start Luke Weaver here today. Weaver is 1-2 in his 12 starts with a lofty 6.86 ERA. Moreover, he's allowed 10 runs over his last 8 1/3 innings. The O's will counter with Kyle Gibson who is 8-5 in his 16 starts and a 4.30 ERA. Gibson has allowed eight runs over his last nine innings. I look for a lot of runs scored in this matchup. I'll be on the OVER. |
|||||||
06-23-23 | Brewers v. Guardians UNDER 8 | 7-1 | Push | 0 | 17 h 52 m | Show | |
The Milwaukee Brewers held 1st place for most of the season in the NL Central. However, a 11-game win streak by the Reds now has them 1.5 games back of Cincinnati. The Brewers hope to get back to their winning ways with Wade Miley taking the hill today. Miley is 4-2 in his nine starts with a 3.28 ERA. Miley has allowed just one run over his last two starts. Meanwhile, the Cleveland Guardians have closed to just one-game of the Twins in the AL Central. The Guardians have won four straight games. Shane Bieber will toe the rubber today for the Guardians. Bieber is 5-4 in his 15 starts with a 3.50 ERA. He had his one-run streak of 12 2/3 innings busted last start after allowing five runs over 7 1/3 innings. Despite the poor outing, I still like this game UNDER today. I expect both pitchers to put up good numbers. Take UNDER. |
|||||||
06-13-23 | Guardians v. Padres UNDER 7.5 | Top | 3-6 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 44 m | Show |
The Cleveland Guardians are in 2nd place in the AL Central with a 31-34 record, 1.5 games back of first place Minnesota. The Guardians beat Houston on Sunday, 5-0, taking two of three games against the Astros. Cleveland will start Tanner Bibee tonight who is 2-1 with a 3.04 ERA. Bibee has allowed more than three runs in just one of his last eight starts this season. The San Diego Padres look to move up the ranks in the NL West as they sit in 4th place right now with a 31-34 record. The Padres start Joe Musgrove tonight. Musgrove is 3-2 in his eight starts with a 4.36 ERA. He's been better at home with a 3.00 ERA in three starts. Musgrove has been especially good of late, allowing just three total runs over his last three starts (17 1/3 innings) with 17 KO's and just four walks. Both pitchers looking very good. For me, I'll take this game UNDER the total. |
|||||||
05-30-23 | Royals v. Cardinals UNDER 9 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 27 m | Show |
No matter what the standings for these teams it's always a rivalry when Kansas City and St Louis matchup. The Royals are in last the AL Central while the Cardinals are in last in the NL Central. The Royals start Zack Greinke who is 1-5 on the season with a 4.55 ERA. He's been much better of late, allowing three earned runs over his last two starts. Miles Mikolas starts for the Cardinals with a 3-1 record and 4.23 ERA. He's allowed five total runs over his last four starts. Both pitchers pitching well and I will take the UNDER here today. |
|||||||
05-28-23 | Dodgers v. Rays OVER 9 | 10-11 | Win | 100 | 2 h 4 m | Show | |
Game three between these teams here on Sunday as the teams have split the first two games. The Rays took Friday's game, 9-3 and the Dodgers took Saturday's, 6-5. Both games have gone over. For the Dodgers, they have gone over in six of their last seven games. LA starts Gavin Stone for just the third time here today. Stone has no record but a lofty 10.13 ERA. The Rays have gone over in eight straight games. They will start Josh Fleming here today. Fleming has no record after two starts with a 5.63 ERA. Not much to know about Fleming, but Stone has not been good. I'm taking the over here today. |
|||||||
05-25-23 | Orioles v. Yankees OVER 9 | 3-1 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 8 m | Show | |
We had a winner with the Orioles on Wednesday as they came from behind to get this key AL East win. The AL East is the best division in baseball as it's the only one with all teams above .500 and all teams in the plus run differential. The Rays jumped out to that huge lead, but have seen it dwindle to jus three games over the Orioles and six over the Yankees. These teams have split the first two games of this series, with the Yankees taking game one and the Orioles game two yesterday. Tonight, Kyle Gibson will start for the O's. Gibson is 5-3 on the season with a 4.27 ERA. He's been slightly worse on the road with a 5.09 ERA. The Yankees will counter with Clarke Schmidt who is only 2-4 in his 10 starts with a 6.00 ERA. Both pitchers have been very inconsistent and considering both have excellent hitting teams, I'll take the OVER. |
|||||||
05-25-23 | Blue Jays v. Rays OVER 8.5 | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 2 h 14 m | Show | |
Another key AFC East clash as the best division in baseball has their top team, the Tampa Bay Rays, taking on Toronto. The Rays once had a huge lead in the East, but it's gone down to just 3-games over Baltimore. The Blue Jays are in last place, but still have a winning record. They are 9.5-games back and need this head-to-head wins to cut into that lead. The Blue Jays have lost two of the first three games in this series, despite outscoring the Rays by a 27-14 margin. Ok, 20 of those runs came in a 20-1 lopsided win. All three games have gone over and in fact, the last five games have gone over for the Jays. Alek Manoah will start today for the Jays with a 1-4 mark in his 10 starts and a 5.15 ERA. The Rays will counter with Zach Eflin who is 6-1 with a 3.45 ERA in his eight starts. I look for both teams to get plenty of runs here tonight. I'll be on the OVER. |
|||||||
05-17-23 | Diamondbacks v. A's OVER 9 | Top | 5-3 | Loss | -115 | 6 h 42 m | Show |
 Arizona continues to hold onto second place in the NL West, three games back of the Dodgers. They have leveled off though, going 5-5 their last 10 games and losing on Tuesday to Oakland, 8-9. The teams have split their first two games of this series with the D'backs winning on Monday, 5-2. The Oakland A's finally got to the double digits in wins with their win on Tuesday. Still, they have the worst record in baseball at 10-34 and worst run differential in baseball at -159 runs. Ryne Nelson will start for the D'backs today with his 1-2 record in eight starts. He also has a 6.20 ERA and 1.549 WHIP. The A's counter with Luis Medina, who is 0-2 with a 8.18 ERA. Neither pitcher is very good and considering how many runs the A's allow, I'll be on the OVER here today. |
|||||||
05-14-23 | Rangers v. A's OVER 9 | 11-3 | Win | 100 | 6 h 12 m | Show | |
The Texas Rangers got back on the winning track with their win on Saturday over the A's, 5-0. They have taken two of the first three in this series as the play the set final here on Sunday. Andrew Heaney will start today for the Rangers with a 2-3 record in his seven starts. Heaney has a 5.25 ERA and a 2.31 road ERA. Drew Rucinski will get the start for the A's. Rucinski is 0-3 in his three starts with a 8.16 ERA. Two poor pitchers here today. For me, that means just one play, take the OVER. |
|||||||
05-12-23 | Cubs v. Twins UNDER 8 | 6-2 | Push | 0 | 9 h 42 m | Show | |
The Cubs and Twins open this series here tonight in Minnesota. The Cubs are coming off a series loss to the Cardinals, losing two of three games. They did take the finale on Wednesday, 10-4. The Cards are still in last place in the NL Central with a 13-25 record, eight back of the Pirates. They have also lost seven of their last 10 games. Drew Smyly gets the start today for the Cubs with a 3-1 record in his seven starts and a 3.05 ERA> Smyly has been very good of late, allowing two runs or fewer in each of his last six starts. The Twins have won two straight and are 21-17 and in 1st place in the AL Central. The Twins took two of three from the San Diego Padres. All three Padre games went UNDER. In fact, the Twins have now gone under in six straight games. The bullpen and starters have been solid, with the pen holding a 3.56 ERA. I like this one to be another low scoring clash. I'll take the UNDER. |
|||||||
05-11-23 | Padres v. Twins UNDER 8 | Top | 3-5 | Push | 0 | 12 h 6 m | Show |
 Both these teams took of Wednesday after playing game on Tuesday with the Padres winning that one, 6-1. The Padres got back above the .500 mark with a 19-18 record, 3.5-games back of the Dodgers in the NL West. The Twins are in 1st place in the AL Central at 20-17 and the only team in the division with a winning record and positive run differential (+22). The Padres will start Yu Darvish who is 2-2 in his six starts with a 3.19 ERA. Darvish has pitched well, allowing one run in three of his last four starts. The Twins counter with Bailey Ober who is 2-0 in three starts with a 0.98 ERA. He's only allowed two total runs in 18 2/3 innings. Two very good pitchers here today. I'll play the UNDER. |
|||||||
05-10-23 | Dodgers v. Brewers UNDER 8 | 8-1 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 27 m | Show | |
The LA Dodgers and Brewers have split the first two games of this series with Milwaukee taking Monday's game, 9-3 and the Dodgers taking Tuesday's game, 6-2. The Dodgers have won eight of their last 10 games and sit in first in the NL West with a 22-15 record. The Brewers are in 2nd in the NL Central with a 20-16 record. Clayton Kershaw looks to rebound from his sub-par performance last time out vs the Padres. He gave up five runs over 4 2/3 innings to take the loss. Kershaw was the player of the Month in April with a 5-1 record. Overall he's 5-2 now with a very good 2.53 ERA. Kershaw might be out to prove something here today after the Padres scoreboard made fun of him after his loss showing him with tears streaming down his face. Bold statement for a team that the Dodgers have owned over recent times and something for the bulletin board when the Padres visit LA this weekend. The Brewers will counter with Wade Miley here today who is 3-1 in his six starts with a 2.31 era. He's been even better at home with a 2-0 mark in three starts and a 1.59 ERA. This one has all the markings of a fine pitcher's duel. For me I'll take the UNDER. |

05-10-23 | Tigers v. Guardians UNDER 7.5 | 5-0 | Win | 100 | 11 h 57 m | Show | |
The Detroit Tigers and Cleveland Guardians continue their series here on Wednesday after the Guardians took Tuesday's game, 2-0. Cleveland is 17-19 and in 2nd place in the AL Central. The only team in the division with a winning record and positive run differential is first place Minnesota at 19-17. Runs have been at a premium for this Guardian team, as they have scored three runs or fewer in seven of their last eight games. Peyton Battenfield will make his fifth start today for Cleveland. Battenfield is 0-3 with a 3.22 ERA and has received just one run of support in his last five starts. The Tigers are 16-19 and in third place in the AL Central. The Tigers will start Eduardo Rodriguez who is 3-2 with a 1.81 ERA in his seven starts. Like his counterpart today, runs have been hard to get when he starts as the Tigers have three runs or fewer in six of his seven starts. Both pitchers are good and both offenses are poor. I'll take the UNDER here today. |

05-04-23 | Pirates v. Rays UNDER 8.5 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 4 h 43 m | Show | |
 The Pittsburgh Pirates still surprising many with their first place in the NL Central. They have a great run differential of +45 and while they lost on Wednesday to the Rays they are 7-3 their last 10 games. Vincent Velasquez will start today for the Bucs. Velasquez is 4-2 in his six starts with a 3.06 ERA. He's actually been better on the road with a 3-1 record and 2.38 ERA. In addition, he's allowed no runs over his last two starts (13 innings). The Rays continue to just win. They are now 24-6 and have won seven of their last 10 games. They have the best run differential in baseball with a +106 runs. Zach Eflin looks to improve to 4-0 on the season today. Eflin has a 3.00 ERA in his four starts and has allowed over two runs just one time and that was three runs to the A's. I like both pitchers a lot here and will take the UNDER. |
|||||||
05-03-23 | Giants v. Astros UNDER 7.5 | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 2 h 5 m | Show | |
 The Houston Astros are in 2nd place in the AL West with a 16-14 record, 2.5-games back of the Rangers. The Astros have won six of their last 10 games, but lost on Tuesday to the Giants, 0-2. The teams have split their first two games of this series with the rubber game here today. Framber Valdez will start for the Astros today. Valdez is 2-3 in his six starts but has a very good 2.54 ERA. He's been even better at home with a 2.16 ERA though he has a 0-3 record at home in four starts. The Giants are 12-17 and in fourth place in the NL West. They will start Logan Webb here today. Webb is 1-5 in his six starts with a 4.82 ERA. Webb started the season with four straight games where he allowed four run in each game. However, he's gotten much better of late, allowing just two runs in each of his last two games. I'll be on the UNDER here today as both pitchers look to be in much better form. Play UNDER. |

04-10-23 | Nationals v. Angels OVER 9.5 | 6-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 36 m | Show | |
The 3-7 Washington Nationals will travel to the LA Angels tonight. The Angels are 5-4 and tied for first in the AL West. The Angels lost a shootout on Sunday to the Blue Jays, 11-12. The Halos scored 27 runs in their four game set with Toronto, but could only get a split of the four game series. The Angels have also been a good over team, going 5-3-1 in their nine games. Jose Suarez gets his second start tonight. Suarez went just 4 1/3 innings vs Seattle in his season debut, allowing eight hits and seven runs and was collared with the loss. The Nationals split their last series at Colorado, scoring 23 runs over the last three games. They have also gone over in five of their last six games. Their bullpen has been bad, posting a 5.45 ERA and a 6.94 road ERA. Pat Corbin gets the start after going 0-2 in his first two games. Corbin has an 8.00 ERA after two games with a 2.22 WHIP. This has all the markings of another big scoring game. Take the OVER. |
|||||||
04-04-23 | Braves v. Cardinals OVER 10 | Top | 4-1 | Loss | -103 | 7 h 10 m | Show |
 The Atlanta Braves off to a 3-1 start after four games. The Braves took two of three from the Nationals to open the season. They opened this set with the Cardinals winning last night, 8-4. Dylan Dodd will toe the rubber for the first time this season. In fact, he makes his major league debut here tonight. Meanwhile the Cardinals are 2-2 to start the season. They took two of three from the Blue Jays to open the season and lost the opener here last night. They have gone over in three of their four games thus far. They have also scored at least four runs in each game. Steven Matz will make his first start this year. Matz was 5-3 with a 5.25 ERA last year. Neither pitcher all that great here today and the way both teams have been hitting, this looks like an over to me. |
|||||||
04-01-23 | Braves v. Nationals OVER 8 | 7-1 | Push | 0 | 3 h 11 m | Show | |
 The Braves opened their season on Thursday with a convincing win over the Nationals, 7-2. I had them on the Run line in that opening game. They took off yesterday and resume here today against the Nat. They will start Spencer Strider, who was 11-5 last year with a 2.67 ERA. The Nationals will start Josiah Gray, who was 7-10 last year with a 5.02 ERA. Braves expected to contend for the division title again this year. I expect the Braves to get plenty of runs again here today. I'll take the OVER. |
|||||||
10-29-22 | Phillies v. Astros UNDER 7 | 2-5 | Push | 0 | 19 h 14 m | Show | |
Game one went to the Phillies who dug themselves a 0-5 deficit in game one but battled back to tie the game and send it into extra innings where they won 6-5 in 10. Today, Zack Wheeler will start game two for the Phillies. Wheeler has been very good in the postseason, allowing five runs in his four starts (19 1/3 innings) with 25 KO's and just five walks. Wheeler's ERA over his last seven starts is a paltry 1.34 ERA. The Astros will start Framber Valdez who is 18-6 overall on the season with a 2.96 ERA. In his two postseason starts, Valdez has gone `12 2/3 innings and allowed two earned runs. Game one was a slugfest, but I look for the teams to settle down into a pitching duel here in game two. Take UNDER. |
|||||||
10-28-22 | Phillies v. Astros UNDER 6.5 | 6-5 | Loss | -100 | 82 h 15 m | Show | |
The Houston Astros have rolled through the playoffs, going 7-0 thus far. The Phillies road has been tougher, having to play at Atlanta and San Diego. We get a great pitching matchup in game one here on Friday from Houston. Houston manager Dusty Baker has been a major league manager for over 20 years but has yet to win a World Series so you have to believe there is extra incentive in the Houston dugout to win this thing. Zack Wheeler has been great for the Phillies in the postseason. In his four postseason starts, Wheeler has allowed five total runs with 27 KO's and just three walks. He is 2-1, with his loss coming in the Atlanta series. Wheeler has a 2.67 ERA this year and a 1.35 ERA over his last seven starts. It will be a tall task for the Phils today as they face Justin Verlander. Verlander is coming off six innings vs the Yankees where he gave up three hits and one run for the win, 4-2. Verlander has just two postseason starts and did get rocked in his first by Seattle, giving up six runs and 10 hits over four innings. Still, Verlander has just a 1.99 ERA this season. While I won't lay the big price with the Astros, I will take the UNDER here in game one. |
|||||||
10-22-22 | Astros v. Yankees UNDER 7 | 5-0 | Win | 100 | 17 h 22 m | Show | |
The Astros look to take a commanding lead in this ALCS after taking the first two games in Houston, 4-2 and 3-2. Both games going under the total with both sides showing off their pitching. The Padres will start Cristian Javier today who is 11-8 overall on the season with a 2.68 ERA. Javier makes his first start since October 1st today. Javier has not allowed a run over his last four starts (23 innings). Gerrit Cole will hope to get the Yankees in the win column today. Cole is 15-8 overall on the season with a 3.41 ERA. Cole had two starts in the Cleveland series, allowing just three total runs over his 13 1/3 innings. Two very good pitchers and a series that has already shown off the defense and pitching. I'll stick with the UNDER today. |
|||||||
10-20-22 | Yankees v. Astros UNDER 7 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 33 m | Show | |
The Houston Astros took game one of this ALCS on Wednesday, 4-2. The game was tied early on but the long ball put the Astros ahead and they rode the arm of Justin Verlander to the win. The Yankees will turn to Luis Servino today who is 7-3 overall in his 20 starts. Severino has a 3.26 ERA and is 3-1 with a 3.03 ERA in his last seven starts. That includes one postseason start against the Guardians where he went 5 2/3 innings, gave up eight hits and three runs. The Astros will start Framber Valdez who was very good this year with a 17-6 overall record and 2.78 ERA. Valdez had one postseason start and that was against the Mariners where he went 5 2/3 innings, allowed four hits and two earned runs. Two big hitting teams that both have been good under plays this year. The Astros are 61-95 Ov/Under on the season while the Yankees are 77-85 Ov/Un on the year. I'm taking the UNDER here in game two. |
|||||||
10-19-22 | Phillies v. Padres UNDER 7 | 5-8 | Loss | -125 | 4 h 2 m | Show | |
Pitching once again seems to be the name of the game in the National League playoffs. After great pitching in the Padres/Dodgers series, we got treated to another gem in game one in this series on Tuesday night. The Phillies got three total hits, though two were home runs including a 488 foot shot by Kyle Shwarber. The Padres could manage just one single in game one. Aaron Nola goes tonight for the Phillies. Nola was just 13-13 in the season but beat both the Cardinals and Braves in the playoffs, allowing no earned runs over his 12 2/3 innings of postseason work. Blake Snell will go for the Padres. Snell has nine innings of work in two postseason starts, allowing three runs. Looks like another pitcher's duel here tonight to me. Play the UNDER. |
|||||||
10-15-22 | Braves v. Phillies OVER 9 | 3-8 | Win | 101 | 5 h 54 m | Show | |
The Braves face elimination today at the hands of the Phillies as they trail one game to two. Atlanta took a beating in Friday's contest, 1-9. Win or go home today for the Braves. That task will fall to Charlie Morton who is 9-6 on the season with a 4.34 ERA. He's been slightly worse over his last seven starts with a 5.65 ERA. The Phillies turn to Noah Syndergaard today who is 10-10 on the season with a 4.00 ERA. The Braves have gone over in six of their last eight road playoff games and are 25-9-3 Ov/Un in their last 37 games vs a team with a winning record. Philly has gone over in four straight home games and is 11-3-2 Ov/un in their last 16 home playoff games. I like today's game to go OVER. |
|||||||
09-30-22 | Royals v. Guardians UNDER 7 | 3-6 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 16 m | Show | |
Nothing left for the Guardians to play for as they ran away with the AL Central in the 2nd half of the season. The Guardians are 11 games in front of Chicago. The Guardians won't get a first round bye and will have to face one of the Wild Card teams. Kansas City has lost three games in a row but will have their best pitcher on the hill today in Brady Singer. Singer is 10-4 on the season with a 2.92 ERA. He's been even better of late, going 4-0 in his last seven starts with a 2.27 ERA. Cleveland will counter with Aaron Civale who is 3-6 in his 18 starts with a 5.19 ERA. HE's been better of late, going 1-1 in his last seven starts with a 3.38 ERA. In fact, he's allowed two runs or fewer in seven of his last eight starts. I'm taking the UNDER here on Friday. |
|||||||
09-20-22 | Diamondbacks v. Dodgers UNDER 8.5 | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 11 h 11 m | Show | |
The Dodgers are trying to make history this season. They already have 102 wins and the team's personal record is 106, which looks very easy at this point to possibly break. The All time record in baseball is 116 wins, but that doesn't look realistic, though still possible. The Dodgers also moved into 6th place ALL time in baseball in run differential as they have a +332 mark. The Diamondbacks come into today with a four game losing streak and six of eight. They will start Drey Jameson tonight with a 1-0 record in his only start. He looked very good vs the Padres, going seven strong innings, allowing two runs and no hits with KO's. The Dodgers start Tyler Anderson who is 14-3 on the season with a 2.64 ERA. Anderson went seven strong innings his last start vs these Diamondbacks, allowing five hits and not runs. In fact, it was against Nelson as neither team had scored a run into the 7th inning. I like a rematch here tonight of these pitchers to once again be a pitchers duel. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
09-19-22 | Mariners v. Angels UNDER 7.5 | 9-1 | Loss | -105 | 4 h 14 m | Show | |
Seattle now in 3rd place in the ever changing AL Wild Card picture. The Mariners are 1.5 games back of the Rays and 2-games back of the Blue Jays. They have a four-game lead over fourth place Baltimore though. The M's will start one of their best today in Logan Gilbert. Gilbert is 12-6 on the season with a 3.24 ERA. He's been hot of late, allowing just one run over his last three starts (17 Innings) and not allowing more than two runs in any of his last five starts. The Angels will counter with Jose Suarez. Suarez is 5-7 in his 17 starts with a 4.04 ERA. He's not allowed more than three runs in any of his last eight starts. I'll take the UNDER tonight in this matchup. |
|||||||
09-18-22 | Padres v. Diamondbacks UNDER 8.5 | 6-1 | Win | 100 | 17 h 59 m | Show | |
Padres and Diamondbacks close out their set here on Sunday. The teams split the first two games of this series with the Padres winning on Friday, 12-3. The Padres best pitcher will take to the hill here on Sunday in Yu Darvish. Darvish is 14-7 on the season with a 3.16 ERA. He's only allowed three total runs over his last three starts (21 innings). Arizona will counter with Ryne Nelson who is 1-0 in his two starts this year. Those were impressive starts against the Dodgers and Padres, allowing no runs over 13 innings. Nelson looks to be the real thing. Two excellent pitchers has me on the UNDER. |
|||||||
09-18-22 | Rangers v. Rays UNDER 7 | 3-5 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 60 m | Show | |
Texas lost to Tampa Bay on Saturday, 1-5. The two teams have split the first two in this series. Tampa is tied for 2nd in the wild card race right now, 1.5-games back of first place Toronto. Good news is they have opened-up a 5.5-game lead over the Orioles with time running out. Tampa will start Jeffrey Springs who is 7-4 in his 21 starts this season with a nifty 2.65 ERA. He's been even better at home with a 2.01 ERA in nine starts. The Rangers will start Glenn Otto who is 6-8 in 23 starts with a 4.71 ERA. He's been better of late, going 2-0 with a 3.44 ERA in his last seven starts. I like this game under today. |
|||||||
09-14-22 | Rays v. Blue Jays UNDER 7.5 | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 9 m | Show | |
 Very important WIld Card matchup today as the Toronto Blue Jays hold just a half game lead in the race over the Tampa Bay Rays and the Seattle Mariners. Good thing is that fourth place Baltimore is now five-games back. The Rays lost last night at Toronto, 2-7. Every game in this matchup is important. Drew Rasmussen will start today for the Rays with a 10-4 record in 24 starts and a 2.57 ERA. Rasmussen has been hot of late, allowing two runs or fewer in each of his last seven starts. Toronto will counter with Ross Stripling who is 6-4 in his 20 starts with a 2.91 ERA. Should be another great matchup here tonight. I'll be on the UNDER. |

09-10-22 | Angels v. Astros UNDER 7 | 6-1 | Push | 0 | 9 h 19 m | Show | |
The Houston Astros have little challenge in the AL West with a 12-game lead over the Mariners. Still, they have to play the rest of the season and today they face the Angels and Shohei Ohtani. Ohtani is 11-8 on the season with a nifty 2.58 ERA. He's been slightly better at home with a 2.19 ERA. In fact, he's allowed one total run over his last two starts (15 innings). The Astros will counter with Jose Urquidy who is 13-5 with a 3.51 ERA. He's been better of late, going 5-2 with a 2.58 ERA over his last seven starts. I'm going to stick with the UNDER here in this one. Â Â Â |

09-10-22 | Rays v. Yankees UNDER 8 | 3-10 | Loss | -115 | 3 h 10 m | Show | |
Huge series here as the Rays continue to put the pressure on the fading Yankees. The Yankees had a double-digit lead not very long ago and now the Rays have dwindled that down to just 3.5 games in the AL East. The Rays have won four straight, including beating the Yankees last night, 4-2. The Rays pitching has been great, allowing two runs or fewer in seven of their last nine games. The Rays will start Corey Kluber here today who is 10-7 and 4.00 ERA. Kluber is coming off an excellent start where he allowed two hits and no runs over seven innings to the Yankees. The Yankees will start Jameson Taillon who is 12-4 on the season. Taillon has a 3.95 ERA and has allowed two runs or fewer in each of his last three starts. Should be another excellent game here today, I'll take the UNDER. |
|||||||
09-09-22 | White Sox v. A's UNDER 8 | 5-3 | Push | 0 | 11 h 59 m | Show | |
The Chicago White Sox are in a 3-team race for the AL Central. The Sox and Twins both trail first place Cleveland by 1.5 games. And really which ever team wins the other two won't be making the playoffs as both teams are 7-games back in the Wild Card race. So these games are important to the Sox. The Sox will start Lucas Giolito who is 10-9 with a 5.21 ERA. He's pitched pretty well of late, allowing two runs or fewer in two of his last three games. Oakland just playing out the season with send James Kaprielian to the hill. He's just 3-9 with a 4.79 ERA in his 22 startss. He's also pitched pretty well of late, allowing two runs in three of this last four starts. While neither pitcher is very good, they have been much better of late. I'll take the UNDER. |

09-09-22 | Rays v. Yankees UNDER 7 | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 53 m | Show | |
Tampa Bay making a huge late season charge at the 1st place Yankees, now just 4.5-games back. Just a few months ago that number was more like 15-games back. The Rays have won eight of 10 and three straight games. They also hold the top AL Wild Card slot right now with a 1-game lead over the Mariners. Drew Rasmussen will start today with a 9-4 record in his 23 starts and a 2.70 ERA. That number is even better during the last seven games with a 3-1 record and 1.85 ERA. The Yankees lost last night to the Twins, 3-4. That did snap a four-game win streak. Frankie Montas will toe the rubber for the Yankees with a 5-11 record and 3.72 ERA. His numbers go up the last seven starts with a 2-2 record and 5.55 ERA. |

09-06-22 | Diamondbacks v. Padres UNDER 7 | 5-6 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 4 m | Show | |
The Arizona Diamondback would like nothing better than to put a crimp in the San Diego Padres Wild Card hopes. Right now the Padres and Phillies are tied for the 2nd and 3rd Wild Card spots with the Brewers the only other team with a real chance, sitting 2-games back. The Diamondbacks took game one from the Padres on Monday, 5-0. In fact, the D'backs have held four of their last five opponents to 1 run or no runs in a 4-1 streak. In addition, they are 9-2 over their last 11 games. Merrill Kelly has been a bright spot for the D'backs this year with a 12-5 record and 2.84 ERA. He is also great on the road with a 8-1 record in his 12 starts and a 2.74 ERA. The Padres hope to snap a 3-game losing streak here today. Juan Soto who they picked up at the trade deadline has been in a terrible slump of late. And with Fernando Tatis missing the rest of the season, Soto has to pick it up if the Padres hope to stave off the Brewers. Joe Musgrove starts for the Padres with a 9-6 record and 3.01 ERA. Musgrove hasn't been as good of late though, going only 1-3 in his last seven starts with a 4.05 ERA. Your free play for Tuesday is on the UNDER. |

09-04-22 | Mariners v. Guardians UNDER 7.5 | 6-3 | Loss | -105 | 5 h 46 m | Show | |
Two teams that are battling for playoff spots meet in the final game of their set as the Guardians host the Mariners. The Guardians have a modest 1-game lead in the AL Central over the Twins and 2-games over the White Sox. Not so good looking in the Wild Card though as the sit 4-games back of the Orioles right now in what is a 4-6 team race for three spots. The Mariners are 2nd in the Wild card race, just one percentage point behind 1st place Tampa Bay. They are 2-games ahead of Toronto and 3.5-games ahead of the Orioles. Seattle has also won six straight games, getting great pitching. The M's have allowed 1 run total in their last three games and no more than three runs in any of their last six and 10 of their last 11. The pen has a solid 3.31 ERA and 3.00 ERA over their last seven games. George Kirby starts today with a 6-3 record in his 19 starts and 3.16 ERA. That drops to 2.11 ERA over his last seven starts with a 4-0 record. The Guardians have lost four straight games, scoring a total of 1-run during that span. Cal Quantrill starts today with an 11-5 record and 3.50 ERA. He has allowed one or no runs in four of his last five starts. This looks to be a very low scoring game with two very good pitching staffs meeting. Take the UNDER. |
|||||||
09-04-22 | Rangers v. Red Sox OVER 9.5 | 2-5 | Loss | -110 | 4 h 42 m | Show | |
 The Texas Rangers are stuck in the middle of a 7-game losing streak after dropping the first three games of this series with the Red Sox. Moreover, they have allowed 23 runs to the Sox in the 3-games. Today, they turn to Dane Dunning to try and end the streak. Dunning, however, is just 3-7 in his 25 starts with a 4.18 ERA and a 0-5 record on the road with a 5.25 ERA. Meanwhile, the Red Sox have won four straight games and have gone over in four of their last five games. Josh WInckowski will start today with a 5-7 record and 5.83 ERA. That number is even worse at home where he is 3-4 with a 7.00 ERA. Neither starter likely around long in this game. I'll take the OVER. |

09-03-22 | A's v. Orioles UNDER 8.5 | 1-8 | Loss | -114 | 9 h 10 m | Show | |
The Baltimore Orioles still fighting for a playoff Wild Card slot, sit in fourth place, just 1.5 games back of third place Toronto. The O's have won three straight and seven of their last 10 to keep pace with the pack. Adam Oller starts for the A's today with a 2-6 overall record and 5.66 ERA. The O's will counter with Austin Voth. Voth is 4-2 with a 4.48 ERA. He's pitched very well of late, allowing just three total runs over his last three starts (17 2/3 innings). I'm taking the UNDER in this one as both pitchers have been very good in recent starts. Play UNDER. |
|||||||
09-02-22 | Yankees v. Rays UNDER 7.5 | 0-9 | Loss | -117 | 9 h 34 m | Show | |
The Yankees had a huge lead in the AL East, but that is now down to 6-games over the Rays. They have hit a bit of slump lately, losing four of their last five games, including last night at the Angels, 2-3. Thus begins a big series with the Rays tonight. Domingo German will start tonight with a 2-2 record in his eight starts and a 3.19 ERA. He's been very good of late, allowing one earned run over his last 14 innings with eight KO's and no Walks. The Rays have won three straight games and look to put a dent in that lead by the Yankees. Jeffrey Springs will start tonight with a 5-4 record in his 18 starts and a 3.08 ERA. Both these pitchers are very good and I will take the UNDER here tonight. |
|||||||
09-02-22 | A's v. Orioles UNDER 8 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 8 h 30 m | Show | |
The Oakland A's look to snap a 2-game losing streak here tonight as they begin a series at Baltimore. The A's have got decent pitching and their bullpen has a 3.67 ERA over their last seven games. JP Sears will toe the rubber for the A's. Sears is 4-1 in his six starts with a 1.69 ERA. The O's offense has been pretty bad of late, but the pitching has been very good. They have two shutout wins in a row and the bullpen has a 1.69 ERA over their last seven games. The O's are in the hunt for one of the three wild card slots, just 1.5 games back of the pack. Dean Kremer will start tonight for the O's with a 6-4 record in his 15 starts and a 3.24 ERA. He's allowed just two runs over his last 13 innings. This one looks like a dead under to me tonight. 15-Star Total Annihilator. |

A little Florida State action here today as the Tampa Bay Rays take on the Marlins from Miami in a short two game stint. Tampa Bay currently holds the top AL Wild Card spot with a 1-game lead over the Mariners. Shane McClanahan will start today for the Rays with a 11-5 record and 2.20 ERA in his 24 starts. He's allowed just four total runs over his last three starts (19 innings). Miami just concluded a four-game set with the Dodgers, losing three of the four games. Jesus Juzardo will start today with a 3-5 record in his 11 starts and a 3.34 ERA. He's allowed two runs or fewer in four of his last five starts. Both pitchers are solid and I'm taking UNDER. |

08-30-22 | Orioles v. Guardians UNDER 8.5 | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 6 h 29 m | Show | |
The Cleveland Guardians are in a fight in the AL Central with the Minnesota Twins for first place. The Guardians lead the Twins by just 1.5 games. The Twins are three games back of a AL Wild Card game with four teams ahead of them. The O's only hope is a Wild Card and right now they are two games back of that spot. The O's took two of their three games at Houston, losing the Monday matchup, 1-3. They are now 5-2 their last seven games. Spenser Watkins starts today with a 4-4 record and 3.78 ERA. He's allowed two runs or fewer in seven of his last nine games. Meanwhile, the Guardians have lost three of their last four games. They will send Cal Quantrill to the hill today. Quantrill is 10-5 in his 24 starts with a 3.59 ERA. He's allowed no runs in three of his last four starts. I'm taking UNDER here today. |

08-28-22 | Dodgers v. Marlins UNDER 7 | 8-1 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 7 m | Show | |
The Dodgers had their 3-game win streak snapped on Saturday by the Marlins and their Ace, Sandy Alcantara. Alcantara pitched a complete game, allowing just one run to the Dodgers and striking out nine, 2-1. The Dodgers were their own worst enemy, committing two very bad errors in the 6th that were ruled hits by the Santa Claus scoring the game. With two outs a slow comebacker to the mound went right under Mays glove for a runner. The next batter hit a slow roller to 2nd base that went under Taylor's glove. Next up, base hit for the eventual winning 2nd run. The Dodgers have been a very good fielding team, but three errors on Friday and those two miscues on Saturday leave a lot be be desired. The Dodgers will start Julio Urias this morning with a 13-7 record and 2.36 ERA. He's been great of late, going 6-1 in his last seven games with a 1.02 ERA. He's allowed just two total runs in his last four games. Edward Cabrera will start for the fish. Cabrera is 4-1 in his seven starts with a 1.41 ERA. He's been very good this far as has Urias. I'll take this game UNDER. |

08-24-22 | Angels v. Rays UNDER 7 | 3-4 | Push | 0 | 8 h 27 m | Show | |
The Angels have dropped the first two games of this series with the Rays, scoring one run in each game. In fact, the offense has scored one run or no runs in four of their last five games. Mike Mayers will make his first start for the Halos, replacing Touki Toussaint who has been relegated to the pen. Mayers has worked out of the pen this year with a 1-0 record and 5.22 ERA. The Rays currently hold the top Wild Card spot in the A.L, a half game ahead of the Jays and Mariners with the Orioles 2.5-games back. Shane McClanahan will start today for the Rays. He's 11-5 in his 23 starts with a 2.29 ERA. I fully expect the Angels pathetic offense to once again be shut down here tonight. I'll go with the UNDER. |

08-23-22 | Reds v. Phillies UNDER 8 | 6-7 | Loss | -115 | 9 h 7 m | Show | |
The NL Wild Card race is really a two-team race now as Atlanta has at least locked-up the Wild Card with an 8-game lead. However, just 1.5-games separate the next three teams for those final two spots, including Philadelphia which is tied for 2nd right now with the Padres. The Phillies took game one of this four game set with the Reds on Monday, 4-1. That was only their 2nd win in their last six games. Ranger Suarez makes the start here tonight for the Phils with a 8-5 record in his 21 starts and a 3.31 ERA. However, he's been much better of late, going 2-1 in his last seven starts with a 1.71 ERA. The Reds simply playing out the remainder of the season as they won't be going anywhere this postseason. They start Nick Lodolo here this evening with a 3-4 record in his 11 starts and a 4.11 ERA. Lodolo coming off his best start of the season last time out vs this Phillies team. He allowed them five hits and no runs over seven innings in a 1-0 Reds win. I'll stick with the UNDER here tonight. |
|||||||
08-21-22 | Cardinals v. Diamondbacks UNDER 7.5 | 6-4 | Loss | -105 | 6 h 49 m | Show | |
 The Cardinals won their sixth straight game on Saturday with a win over the D'backs, 16-7. The Cards have taken over 1st place in the NL Central from Milwaukee, now leading the Brewers by 4-games. Jose Quintana will start today for the Red Birds. Quintana is 4-5 in his 23 starts with a 3.23 ERA. He's allowed two runs or fewer in five straight games. Arizona looks to salvage the rubber game of this series today. They will look to Merrill Kelly to do just that. Kelly is 10-5 in his 24 starts with a nifty 2.81 ERA. He's been even better of late going 3-0 in his last seven starts with a 1.53 ERA. Two hot pitchers looks like an UNDER for me here today. |
|||||||
08-21-22 | Mariners v. A's UNDER 6.5 | 3-5 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 47 m | Show | |
Seattle and Oakland have split the first two games of this series, with the Mariners taking game 1, 10-2, and the A's taking last night's game, 4-3. The Mariners made a big mid-season pickup of Luis Castillo to make a run for one of the Wild Card slots. Right now the M's are tied for 1st in the Wild card race with Toronto and 1-game ahead of Tampa Bay and 1.5 ahead of Minnesota. In fact, there are six teams that are within three games of each other for three WildCard slots. Louis Castillo has been very good since he came over to Seattle as he's allowed just five runs in his last three starts, all team wins. He's now 5-4 on the season with a 2.73 ERA. The Oakland A's just playing for pride at this point, JP Sears gets the start today, just his fifth of the season. Sears is 3-0 in four starts with a 0.86 ERA. He's looked very sharp for the A's, allowing no runs in three of his starts. I'll take the UNDER here today with two very good pitchers. |
|||||||
08-20-22 | Giants v. Rockies OVER 11 | 3-4 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 44 m | Show | |
The San Francisco Giants look to snap a three-game losing streak here tonight against the Rockies. The Giants have seen their record drop below the .500 mark. The Giants have also dropped to fifth in the Wild Card race, now 4.5 games back of a spot. Alex Cobb will start for the Giants with a 4-6 record in his 19 starts and a 4.26 ERA. Cobb has been getting hit hard on the road where he is 1-0 in seven starts with a 6.19 ERA. The Rockies beat the Giants in game one last night, 7-4, snapping a five-game losing streak. Ryan Feltner will start today with a 2-4 record in his 10 starts and a 6.84 ERA. He's been worse at home, posting a 7.65 ERA. I expect for this game to go over with these two pitchers on the mound. Take OVER. |
|||||||
08-19-22 | Astros v. Braves UNDER 8.5 | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 6 h 59 m | Show | |
An Interleague clash of two powerhouses here as the team with the best record in the AL, Houston, clashes with the 2nd place NL East Atlanta Braves. Houston has won two straight games and six of their last eight. Lance McCullers Jr will get just his second start of the season here tonight. He had a nice first outing, going six innings vs the A's and allowing just two hits and no runs. The Atlanta Braves took three of four games from the NY Mets, including Thursday's contest, 3-2. They have won nine of their last 10 games. Kyle Wright will toe the rubber tonight with his 14-5 record in 22 starts and a 3.14 ERA. Both pitchers can take over this game tonight. I'll look for a low scoring affair and take the UNDER. |
|||||||
08-18-22 | Diamondbacks v. Giants UNDER 7 | Top | 5-0 | Win | 100 | 6 h 32 m | Show |
 Arizona took game three of this four game set with the Giants last night, 3-2. The Giants still lead the series two games to one. Tonight, the Diamondbacks will start Zac Gallen who is 8-2 in his 22 starts with a 3.02 ERA. Gallen has been even better of late, posting a 2.08 ERA and 4-0 record in his last seven starts. The pen has been solid also, especially of late with a 2.61 ERA over their last seven games. The Giants look to stay above the .500 mark tonight as they sit 59-58. The Giants need to make up room in the NL Wild Card and quickly. They are 5th right now for one of three wild card slots, 5-games back of the Padres for that third spot. Logan Webb has been excellent for the Giants, posting a 11-5 record in his 24 starts with a 3.00 ERA. He's coming off a eight-inning outing vs the Pirates where he allowed five hits and no runs. These are two very good pitchers and I look for a low scoring game here today. Play the UNDER. |
|||||||
08-16-22 | Astros v. White Sox UNDER 7 | 3-4 | Push | 0 | 10 h 27 m | Show | |
 Two of the best pitchers in the American League will butt heads here tonight in the Chicago as Justin Verland and Dylan Cease take to the hill. Houston lost the opening game of this four-game set on Monday , 2-4. That snapped a four-game win streak for the Astros. Verlander has been great again this year with a 15-3 record in his 21 starts and a 1.85 ERA. Meanwhile, the White Sox have won four straight games as they moved into 2nd place in the AL Central, two-games back of the Guardians. Their Ace, Dylan Cease has been impressive all season with a 12-5 record and 1.96 ERA in his 23 starts. Just how good has Cease been? Well, consider he's allowed one run or no runs in 12 straight starts. That is impressive. I'll take the UNDER here and won't be surprised by a 1-0 or 2-1 victory. |
|||||||
08-15-22 | Orioles v. Blue Jays OVER 9 | 7-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 33 m | Show | |
The Baltimore Orioles and Toronto Blues Jays are fighting for two of the three A.L. Wild Card slots. The Jays hold first place in that race, 1/2-game ahead of Seattle, 1-game ahead of Tampa Bay and 1.5-games ahead of Baltimore with the Twins and White Sox just two-games back. That's six teams within two games of each other for the Wild Card slots. That makes this 3-game set very important to both teams. The Orioles lost two of their three games to the Rays, including both Saturday and Sunday. They will send Kyle Bradish to the hill today. Bradish is 1-4 in his 13 starts with a 6.42 ERA. The Blue Jays have lost four of their last five games six of their last seven. Yusei Kikuchi will start today for the Jays with a 4-6 record in 19 starts and a 5.13 ERA. Both teams need wins, but this one looks to be decided by the pens as neither starter all that good. I'll take the OVER today. |
|||||||
08-14-22 | Phillies v. Mets UNDER 7 | 0-6 | Win | 105 | 3 h 14 m | Show | |
The first two games of this three game series have been split by these teams in what were very good pitching matchups. The Phillies won game one on Friday, 2-1 and dropped yesterday's contest 0-1. Zack Wheeler toes the rubber today for the Phillies. Wheeler has a 11-5 record in his 21 starts with a 2.63 ERA. He's been a bit better of late, going 5-1 in his last seven starts with a 2.17 ERA. The Mets have received outstanding pitching all season, including a bullpen that has a 3.61 overall ERA and 2.95 ERA their last seven games. Chris Bassitt will go today with a 9-7 record in his 21 starts and a 3.32 ERA. He's been slightly better at home with a 2.73 ERA and a 2.28 ERA his last seven overall games. He's also allowed no runs over his last two starts (15 innings) with 12 KO's and two walks. I'm sticking with the theme in this series and going UNDER. |
|||||||
08-14-22 | Guardians v. Blue Jays UNDER 7 | 7-2 | Loss | -100 | 3 h 12 m | Show | |
The Cleveland Guardians have taken over 1st place in the AL Central with a 60-53 record. They lead the Minnesota Twins by 1.5-games. The Guardians saw their six-game win streak snapped on Saturday by the Blue Jays, 1-2. Shane Bieber will start today for the Guardians with a 7-6 record and 3.28 ERA. Beiber has allowed two runs or fewer in each of his last three starts. The Toronto Blue Jays won't win the AL East, but they are in the thick of it for one of three AL Wild Card slots. The Jays currently hold the top Wild Card spot, a half game ahead of Seattle, two games over Tampa Bay and three teams within four games. Kevin Gausman will start today for the Jays with a 8-8 record and 2.91 ERA. He's been slightly better of late with a 3-2 record in his last seven starts and a 2.33 ERA. Gausman has not allowed a run over his last two starts (14 innings) with 15 KO's and just one walk. Both pitchers are hot and these are two playoff caliber teams. I'll take the UNDER here today. |
|||||||
08-12-22 | Phillies v. Mets UNDER 7 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 9 h 4 m | Show | |
 The Philadelphia Phillies had their seven game win streak snapped yesterday by Miami, 0-3. The Phils have been very good, especially with their bullpen that has a 2.16 ERA over their last seven starts. Ranger Suarez gets the start today with a 8-5 record and 3.68 ERA. He's also been good of late, posting a 4-1 record in his last seven starts with a 2.63 ERA. The NY Mets look to extend their win streak to seven games today. They are coming off a 3-game sweep over Cincinnati, allowing the Reds a total of five runs in the three games. Max Scherzer has been excellent for the Mets and he will toe the rubber today. Scherzer is 8-2 in his 15 starts with a 1.98 ERA. That number drops to 1.77 at home and 1.37 over his last seven starts. This game has all the markings of a low scoring affair tonight. I'll take the UNDER. |
|||||||
08-10-22 | Rays v. Brewers UNDER 7.5 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 2 h 11 m | Show | |
Tampa Bay looking for one of the Wild Card slots as they sit at 58-51 and are in third place in the Wild Card standings. They are just a 1/2 game back of 2nd place Seattle and 1.5 back of 1st place Toronto. The Rays will start Jeffrey Springs today. Springs is 3-3 in his 14 starts with a nice 2.87 ERA. Springs allowed no runs in his last start vs the Tigers, going six innings and striking out six and walking none. The Milwaukee Brewers held onto 1st place for most of the season, but now find themselves in 2nd place behind St Louis, just one game back. And the Brewers will have to compete with four teams in the NL Wild Card race if they can't take the division title. Brandon Woodruff has been a shining star for the Brewers this year. Woodruff is 9-3 with a 3.49 ERA. He's been even better at home with a 5-0 record in six starts and a 2.08 ERA. I look for this contest to be low scoring and will take the UNDER. |
