07-06-22 | Twins +103 v. White Sox | 8-9 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 48 m | Show | |
Minnesota Twins AL Central Game of the Week. Game 965. 11:10 am pst. As we near the midway point of the regular season, the Twins seem to be getting hotter while the White Sox seem to be cooling off. Minnesota has taken Games 1 and 2 of this series to now give them a 4.5-game cushion in the division. As a matter of fact, they have dominated the White Sox in 2022, taking all five meetings with their American League Central rival. Going back a bit they have taken seven in a row against them. Joe Ryan and Lance Lynn are scheduled starters today. Ryan owns a 6-3 record with a 3.00 ERA this season. As a second-year Major Leaguer, the right-hander has not faced Chicago in his career. Lynn is 1-1 with a 4.50 ERA on the campaign and is only making his fifth start of the year. While team has won three of his four turns, he has given up a total of 11 earned runs so far. He has had success against Minnesota over his career. But he still trying to get back in sync and is not the pitcher he once was. The White Sox lineup has certainly struggled recently. And facing the leagues sixth-ranked pitching staff, I don’t see things changing here for them. They are 1-6 the last seven at home. Take the Twins. Thank you. | |||||||

Boston Red Sox. Interleague Game of the Week. Game 981. 4:15 pm pst. With All-Star break just around the corner, there are quite a few teams vying to better their situation. One of those teams is the Boston Red Sox. They are one of the hottest teams in the American League, winning 20 of their last 27 contests. They did drop Game 1 of this series yesterday to the Chicago Cubs, 6-5. They now sit in third place in the competitive, American League East. This is a very good team that doesn’t take losing lightly as they are 13-3 the last 16 games played following a loss. Not only that but they have dominated the National League Central, taking 11 of the last 14 meetings with opponents from the division. In my opinion, the Chicago Cubs have already thrown in the towel in for the season. Their division is a two-horse race between the Milwaukee Brewers and the St. Louis Cardinals. This team has won three in a row but let’s be honest, the first two victories in that small win streak were against the worst team in the NL, the Cincinnati Reds. Josh Winckowski and Alec Mills are scheduled today. The Red Sox starter has been stellar in his last three starts, earning victories in all three, allowing just for earned runs in over 16 innings pitched. On the other hand, Mills hasn’t had a strong outing in weeks, yielding five earns runs in each of his last three turns. By the way in those three appearances, he has only lasted a total of a little over seven innings pitched. And when the team goes to their bullpen, things will get worse as their pitching staff ranks 26th. The Cubs are 3-15 the last18 interleague home games, 1-6 the last seven versus AL East, and 16-35 the last 51 overall home games. Take Boston. Thank you. | |||||||
07-01-22 | Cardinals -135 v. Phillies | 3-5 | Loss | -135 | 8 h 19 m | Show | |
St. Louis Cardinals. Home Run play. Game 901. 3:05 pm pst. St. Louis sits one game behind of Milwaukee in the NL Central. They desperately want the top spot back. They enter this matchup with a top-10 squad both on the mound and at the plate. Miles Mikolas gets the start here. The seasoned right-hander is 5-5 with a 2.57 ERA on the campaign. And over his career in three games, which includes two starts against the Phillies, is 1-0 with a 4.15 ERA. Bailey Falter has never faced the Cardinals in his short career. The left-hander, however is 0-2 with a 4.50 ERA this season. I don’t expect the young pitcher to last too long today. And when the Phillies go to their bullpen, things are going to go from bad to worse for them. St. Louis is 21-7 the last 28 vs. left-handed starters. Take the Cardinals. Thank you. | |||||||
06-30-22 | Yankees -115 v. Astros | 1-2 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 28 m | Show | |
New York Yankees. Battle of the AL Best. Game 961. 3:10 pm pst. Not only do these two teams own the best records in the American League, they also own the two best records in all of baseball. They have split four meetings so far in 2022. But going back a little bit further, New York has gotten the better of Houston, taking six of the last 10 matchups. There is no questioning the fact that the Yankees offense is more lethal, ranking in the top-three in scoring, OPS, and home runs. The Astros lineup is certainly good, but they just don’t possess the same depth or consistency as their opponent here today. Both pitching staffs are excellent ranking No. 1 and No. 2 in the Majors. Speaking of pitching, Luis Severino and Luis Garcia are scheduled today. Severino has been more consistent, possesses the lower ERA, and has had more experience facing his opponent than his counterpart does. New York is 14-2 the last 16 road games versus right-handed starters, 20-8 the last 28 versus the American League West, And 40-12 the last 52 during Game 1 of a series. Take the Yankees. Thank you. | |||||||

Texas Rangers. Best Bet play. Game 913. 5:10 pm pst. These are two teams that surely have different outlook on the second half of the regular season. Kansas City dwells in the AL Central cellar at 26–-45 and 13.5 games back. Texas sits in second place in the AL West at 34-37, 10.5 games back. Currently they are just 5.5 games back of a Wildcard spot. The Rangers have taken two of three meetings with the Royals this season. And going back a bit further, five of the last six matchups. They have just outclassed their opponent here today. The Royals rank among the worst in baseball, both on the mound and at the plate. The Rangers are about at the middle of the pack in both areas. Today Martin Perez gets the road start. The left-hander comes off two outstanding outings en route to an overall record this season of 5-2 with a 1.96 ERA. Over his career in 11 appearances (all starts) he is 4-1 with a 4.43 ERA against the Royals. Kris Bubic gets the nod at home. He is 1-4 with a 7.41 ERA this season. And has only faced the Rangers twice in his career, both as a reliever. Texas is 10-4 the last 14 meetings at Kauffman Stadium and 7-1 the last eight versus left-handed starters. Take the Rangers. Thank you. | |||||||

Boston Red Sox. Best Bet play. Game 963. 10:40 pm pst. Don’t look now but the Boston Red Sox have very quietly taken over second place in the most competitive division in baseball. That’s right, the Red Sox are sitting in second in the AL East, winning six in a row and eight of their last 10. This is huge going into All-Star break. Having momentum going into the midway point of the regular season will certainly help them at the start of the second half of the regular season. They are playing great baseball. During their current six-game win streak they have accounted for five or more runs five times. All this while they’re pitching staff has not allowed an opponent to post five runs in a single one of those contests. Dropping three straight has brought the Cleveland Guardians down to second place in the Central. Playing Boston has been their kryptonite. They have dropped both Games 1 and 2 of this series. And going back a little bit, eight of the last 10 meetings. Playing at home hasn’t helped either against the Red Sox, as they are just 1-6 the last seven matchups at Progressive Field. Rich Hill and Aaron Civale are scheduled starters. Hill has certainly been more consistent to say the least. The Red Sox are 6-0 the last six versus the AL Central, 5-0 the last five versus right-handed starters, 7-1 the last eight versus teams with a winning record, and 11-2 the last 13 on the road. Take Boston. Thank you. | |||||||

St. Louis Cardinals. NL CENTRAL GOM. Game 956. 515 pm pst. Guys, I can make this analysis extremely short by saying simply “fade the Cubs.” But you know me, I can’t leave it at that. Chicago is playing such bad baseball that I believe that they’ve thrown in the towel already, even before the mid-way point of the regular season. They’re not hitting. And their pitching has been just deplorable. They have lost 14 of the last 17 outings. But things are even worse than that. In those 14 losses, they’ve accounted for five or more runs just three times. Meanwhile, their pitching has allowed at least five runs in 13 of those last 17 outings. Speaking of pitching, Kyle Hendricks is getting the start today. The team has lost his last two starts. And over his last five turns, the right-hander has allowed 21 earned runs in just over 23 innings pitched. Now St. Louis has been up-and-down over recent weeks going 8-7 the last 15 contests. But presently, they are tied for the top-spot in the division with Milwaukee and need every win they can get before going into the All-Star break. Playing the Cubs should help them achieve their goal. They have taken three of five meetings with Chicago this season. And going back a bit, 10 of the last 14 overall meetings. Today they send Andre Pallante to the hill. Granted, the team hasn’t given the pitcher too much run support. However, the right-hander has not allowed more than two earned runs in any outing this season. And if you’re keeping count, he has made 21 appearances already. Yes, I know he’s only had a few starts, but he has looked very sharp in each one of those starts. There is no way Chicago can contend with the No. 5 scoring offense in baseball. Nor can they contend with the 11th ranked pitching staff either. St. Louis is 8-2 the last 10 at home, 7-2 the last nine home games versus right-handed starters, and 34-15 the last 49 versus the NL Central. Take the Cardinals. Thank you. | |||||||
06-22-22 | Giants +124 v. Braves | 3-4 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 10 m | Show | |
San Francisco Giants. Oddsmakers Mistake play. Game 959. 4:20 pm pst. Both the Atlanta Braves and the San Francisco Giants are currently sitting in a second place standing in their divisions. Both teams certainly know that every win they can muster right now going into All-Star break will give them momentum come the second half of the regular season. They have split-out Games 1 and 2 of this series. And over the last 10 meetings, they have split-out, five games each. While I will admit the Giants lineup have been a bit erratic. I feel that today’s matchup is all about the starting pitchers. Carlos Rodon and Charlie Morton are scheduled. The San Francisco starter is 6-4 with a 2.84 ERA this season. And has had five solid turns. Unfortunately, the team couldn’t give him run support in several of his outings. On the flipside, the Braves starter is 4-3 with a whopping ERA of 5.08. Four of his last five turns, he has allowed four earned runs. Rodon has certainly been more consistent. And with the team getting a big win yesterday, I feel momentum has shifted to the Giants favor. San Francisco is 6-1 the last seven versus teams with a winning record, 4-1 the last five as an underdog, 8-3 the last 11 on grass, and 5-2 the last seven versus right-handed starters. Take the Giants. Thank you. | |||||||

Boston Red Sox. Home Run play. Game 966. 4:10 pm pst. Let’s be honest. The Detroit Tigers are a hot mess. They have lost eight of their last 10 to sink further into the abyss, sitting in fourth place in the AL Central, at 26-42. On the other hand, the Boston Red Sox have started to heat up. They have won three straight, seven of the last 10, and are sitting in third place in the very competitive, AL East, at 38-31. They have taken Games 1 and 2 of this series. And four consecutive meetings with Detroit this season. Tarik Skubal and Michael Wacha are scheduled here. Skubal, who is 5-4 with a 3.13 ERA, has lost his last two turns, allowing nine runs in nine innings pitched. Wacha has been outstanding all season long, as the team has won seven of his 10 starts en route to an overall record of 5-1 with a 2.28 ERA. The Tigers are 1-6 the last seven meetings in Boston, 1-6 the last seven following a loss, 1-9 the last 10 versus the AL East, and 1-6 the last seven versus right-handed starters. Take the Red Sox. Thank you. | |||||||

Los Angeles Dodgers. Best Bet GOM play. Game 953. 3:40 pm pst. The Los Angeles Dodgers are in a dogfight at the moment with the San Diego Padres. They both currently possess the top-spot in the competitive, NL West division. With the All-Star break just around the corner, Los Angeles knows they need every win they can get right now. And playing Cincinnati is just what the doctor ordered to achieve their goal. The Dodgers have taken seven consecutive meetings with the Reds going back to last season. This includes all five matchups this season. They have outscored their NL rival by a combined 34-10 in 2022. This includes an 8-2 drubbing yesterday in Game 1 of this series. Today, Tyler Anderson takes the mound. The left-hander is 8-0 with a 2.82 ERA on the season, striking out 63, and walking just 11, in 67 IP. The team has won his last six turns. For the Reds, Luis Castillo gets the nod. The right-hander is 2-4 with a respectable, 3.33 ERA on the campaign. However, the team has lost his last three outings. Both on the mound and at the plate, the Dodgers rank No. 2 in the Majors. Their pitching staff has a Team ERA of just 2.90, while their lineup is averaging over 5.06 runs per game. Cincinnati is purely outclassed both on the mound and at the plate in this match up. The Reds are 0-4 the last four as an underdog, 0-6 the last six at home, and 0-5 the last five overall. Take the Dodgers. Thank you. | |||||||

Los Angeles Dodgers. OM GOM. Game 901. 3:40 pm pst. Sports fans, for the life of me I cannot figure out why the line here is so darn low. One of the best teams in baseball faces one of the worst. Los Angeles is currently tied with San Diego for the top-spot in the NL West and need every win they can get right now going into All-Star break. On the other hand, Cincinnati possesses one of the worst records in the Majors and continues to find new and improved ways to lose. This is a team dwelling in the Central Division cellar at 23-43, 14.5 GB, losing four in a row. The Reds have lost all four meetings with the Dodgers in 2022. And going back a little further have dropped six straight in this rivalry, 10 of the last 14 played at Great American Ball Park, and are just 12-30 the last 42 overall meetings. Tony Gonsolin takes the mound on the road. The right-hander is 8-0 with a 1.42 ERA, striking out 60 in just 63.1 IP, winning his last four turns. As a matter of fact, the team has won seven of his last eight turns. Tyler Mahle gets the nod at home. The right-hander has struggled this season going 2-5 with a 4.46 ERA. The team has lost four of his last five starts and six of his overall 10 appearances this season. Cincinnati is 0-5 the last five at home, 3-9 the last 12 versus right-handed starters, and 15-37 the last 52 versus the NL West. Take Los Angele. Thank you. | |||||||

New York Yankees. Best Bet play. Game 961. 4:10 pm pst. Owners of the best overall record in baseball, the New York Yankees come off a rare loss yesterday. The last two times they suffered a defeat, they then went on seven and nine-game win streaks. And unlike recent seasons, they are dominating the Tampa Bay Rays. New York has taken three in a row and five of seven meetings with their division rival this season. They currently possess the best scoring lineup and pitching staff in baseball. They rank in the top-10 in every major offensive category, including topping to league in scoring, OPS, and home runs. The same goes for their ranking on the mound, topping the Majors in Team ERA and WHIP. It’s no wonder Tampa Bay currently sits 13-games back in the division. They are having trouble putting runners on base and more importantly, putting runs on the scoreboard. They average a full run less per game than their opponent here today. And over their last 10 games, they have managed to score five or more runs just three times. Gerrit Cole, who beat the Rays less than a week ago, is 6-1 with a 3.33 ERA on the campaign as a team has won his last three starts. Shane McClanahan, who has respectable numbers at 7-3 with a 1.84 ERA just isn’t getting the run support. The Yankees are 20-7 the last 27 versus the AL East, 19-7 the last 26 following a loss, and 17-7 the last 24 on the road. The Rays are 0-5 the last five as an underdog, 1-5 the last six versus the AL East, and 1-4 the last five versus right-handed starters. Take New York. Thank you. | |||||||

New York Yankees. Best Bet Play. Game 915. 10:35 am pst. Well one thing seems to be sure, the New York Yankees which own the best record in baseball don’t seem to be letting their foot off their gas coming into the midway point of the regular season. The Yankees are on an eight-game win streak, which does include Game 1 of this series yesterday, 12-3. As a matter of fact, they have dominated the Blue Jays taking three in a row and six of the last seven this season. Going back a little further, they have won eight of the last 10 meetings at the Rogers Centre. Today Luis Severino gets the start. He is 4-1 with a 2.80 ERA on the campaign. And has already faced Toronto twice this season with the team winning both outings. Yusei Kikuchi gets the nod at home here. He is 2-3 with a 4.80 ERA as the team has lost his last three turns. Over his last three appearances he has lasted just 8.6 innings pitched and allowed 11 earned runs. He is in real trouble here today facing the majors top-scoring offense which also ranks No. 1 in OPS and in home runs. The Blue Jays are 3-7 the last 10 versus the American League East and 2-6 the last eight as a home underdog. The Yankees are 20-7 the 27 versus American League East, and 16- 6 the last 22 on the road. Take New York. Thank you. | |||||||

New York Yankees. Best Bet play. Game 917. 4:05 PM PST. New York has won seven straight, sweeping their last two opponents en route to the best overall record in baseball at 47-16. Toronto, which are currently 10 games back in the American League East, have been hit or miss over the last week or so, splitting out their last eight outings. Today they send Ross Striping to the hill. While the team has won the right-handers last six starts, let’s pump the brakes a bit here. The last five teams he has faced all have losing records. So, his numbers and their numbers behind him are a bit skewed. There is a big difference facing the Angels, White Sox, Royals, and Tigers and facing the Yankees. For New York, Jordan Montgomery gets the nod. He sports a 2.70 ERA as the team has won his last four turns. On a team full of outstanding starters, Montgomery has held his own. As a matter fact, in his 11 appearances this season he has never allowed more than three runs, yielding two runs or less in nine of those 11 appearances. The Yankees have taken five of the last six meetings this season against the Blue Jays. And going back a bit, seven of the last nine meetings in Toronto. They’ve also fared very well against division opponents going 19-7 the last 26 versus the AL East, 15-6 the last 21 on the road, and 37-14 the last 51 versus right-handed starters. Take New York.

San Diego Padres. Best Bet play. Game 961. 5:05 PM PST. San Diego took Game 1 of this series yesterday, 4-1 to hand Chicago their seventh consecutive loss. And the Padres own the best record in the Majors, going 21-11 away from home. This includes four straight road victories. This doesn’t bode well for the Cubs, which possess the poorest home record in the National League with a 11-21 mark at Wrigley this season. During their current losing slide, Chicago has been outscored by almost 5 1/2 runs per game. Over his career, Kyle Hendricks has done well against San Diego. However, he is 0-2 with a 9.00 ERA over his last three overall starts and 0-2 with an 8.04 ERA in the past three turns at home. Due to a shoulder issue, this will be his first appearance in nearly two weeks. Sean Manaea gets the start today. The left-hander has been strong this month, pitching 13 innings in two starts, allowing just two earned runs and striking out 11. San Diego is 4-0 the last four versus the National League Central, 4-1 the last five versus right-handed starters, 10-3 to last 13 as a road favorite, and 8-3 the last 11 overall. Take the Padres.

Boston Red Sox. Best Bet play. Game 925. 7:10 pm pst. To say Boston has dominated Seattle would be an understatement. The Red Sox have taken seven consecutive meetings in this rivalry, including all five matchups in 2022. Of course, this includes a Game 1 win yesterday, 4-3. Boston is really starting to heat up winning eight of their last nine games. And today they send their best pitcher to the mound. Michael Watcha is 4-1 with a 1.99 ERA on the season. The team has won seven of his 10 starts on the campaign. Seattle is a good team. But they just can’t seem to put together any consistency. They are struggling both on the mound and at the plate. They have rookie right-hander, George Kirby starting. He is 1-1 with a 3.38 ERA this season. The Mariners are 2-5 the last seven as a favorite, 4-13 the last 17 versus the AL East, and 1-7 to last eight during Game 2 of a series. The Red Sox are 8-1 last nine on the road, 16-5 the last 21 versus the AL West, and 20-8 the last 28 overall. Take Boston. Thank you. | |||||||

New York Mets. Interleague Game of the Week. Game 931. 7:35 pm pst. With Atlanta on a nine-game win streak, New York, although currently with a 6.5 game lead in the NL East, really can use everyone win they can get right now. And playing Los Angeles will help them achieve their goal. As you know, the Angels have dropped 15 of the last 16 outings. This is a team struggling both on the mound and at the plate. Their pitching is allowing a ton of runs while their lineup just can’t seem to muster any excitement. Over the last few years, the Mets Achilles’ heel has been their hitting. Their pitching has been solid but they’re hitting just wasn’t too good. That is not the case this year. They rank second overall in the Majors, accounting for over 5.10 runs per game and top all teams in Team BA at .264. Carlos Carrasco takes the hill. He has won for straight outings en route to a 7-1 record with a 3.52 ERA. As a matter of fact, the team has won six of his last seven turns. Over his career in 11 games, which includes five starts, the right-hander is 3-0 with a 2.02 ERA against Los Angeles. For the Angels, Michael Lorenzen goes to the hill. The team has lost his last two outings as he is 5-3 with a 3.69 ERA this season. New York took Game 1 of this series yesterday, 7-3. That was the first time these two teams have met in five years. However, the Mets are 26-10 the last 36 against right-handed starters, 7-2 the last nine following a win, and 10-4 the last 14 overall. Take New York. Thank you. | |||||||

St. Louis Cardinals. National League Central Game of the Week. Game 958. 5:15 PM PST. St. Louis has dropped three in a row and yet because of Milwaukee’s six-game slump, the Cardinals sit just a half-game behind the Brewers in the Central. They know very well that with All-Star break just around the corner they have a very good chance at taking over the top-spot in the division. And hosting the Reds is just what the doctor ordered to achieve their goal. Not only is Cincinnati in last place in the division, they own the worst overall record in the National League. To add insult to injury, they have the worst road record in the Majors at 8-20 away from home. Not only do the Cardinals possess a much better lineup, they also have a top-10 pitching staff. This does not bode well for the Reds. It doesn’t matter who starts for them because they rank dead-last in baseball with a Team ERA of 5.40. Today starters happen to be Castillo and Pallante. Castillo is 2-3 with a 3.55 ERA on the campaign, while Pallante has looked extremely good graduating from the bullpen to a starter. He is currently 1-0 and 1.23 ERA. St. Louis has taken two of three meetings this season against Cincinnati. And going back a bit, seven of the last 10 overall matchups. Cincinnati owns some of the ugliest statistics in baseball going 0-4 the last four versus right-handed starters, 5-22 the last 27 road games versus teams with the winning record, and 8-23 the last 31 games as a road underdog.

The Mets have done well against the Padres taking four of the last five meetings. However, this is the first matchup between these two NL rivals this season. Carlos Carrasco, who is 6-1 with a 3.63 ERA on the campaign gets the start on the road today. Opposing him will be Blake Snell, who is 0-2 with a 4.80 ERA this season. The combination of New York’s third ranked offense (5.11 RPG) and their seventh ranked pitching staff (3.59 Team ERA) it’s just going to be too much for the erratic San Diego squad to handle. The Mets are 6-1 the last seven games following a win, 5-1 the last six during Game 1 of a series, and 5-1 the last six games played versus left-handed starters, Take New York. Thank you. | |||||||

However, these are two very different teams right now. Boston is on a four-game win streak while Los Angeles has lost 11 straight. Michael Wacha and Noah Syndergaard are scheduled starters here. Wacha, at 3-1 with a 2.43 ERA, a owns a 2-0 record with a 0.77 ERA in two career starts against the Angels. Syndergaard, who is 4-3 with a 4.02 ERA on the campaign, has faced the Red Sox three times in his lifetime, sporting a 1-1 record with a 3.05 ERA. Los Angeles it’s finding new and improved ways to lose. While their offense has accounted for just two runs per game over the last six, their pitching staff has absolutely gotten shelled, for seven runs per game during their current slide. Look for Boston to get a big win here as they are 8-0 the last eight versus the American League West, 4-0 the last four versus right-handed starters, and 4-0 the last four on the road.

Their lineup has begun to heat up while they possess one of the League’s best pitching staffs (2.93 team ERA). While the Mariners certainly have talent, they just can’t string together consecutive solid performances. They are going to have a hard time facing the powerful, Christian Javier today. In 41 innings pitched this season, the right-hander has a 2.41 ERA, striking out 52 and only walking 15. Opposing him will be the shaky, Robbie Ray. The right-hander is struggling. He has lost his last three starts allowing 11 earned runs in just 17 IP. The Mariners are 16-41 the last 57 meetings with the Astros, 2-11 the last 13 following a win, and 7-16 the last 23 on the road. Take Houston. Thank you. | |||||||

And going back a bit eight of the last nine overall matchups. The Rangers have Glenn Otto on the mound. While he owns some impressive numbers, overall, when pitching at home this season in three starts he has a whopping 6.91 ERA. Marco Gonzales takes the hill on the road.

The M’s are 4-0 the last four meetings in Texas and an overall 23-7 the last 30 meetings with the rangers. Take the Mariners. Thank you. | |||||||

Milwaukee Brewers. BEST BET play. Game 957. 5:05 pm pst. Right now, there is no team in the National League Central division playing as well as the Milwaukee Brewers. They sit atop of the division with a four-game lead at 32-18. They are winning both at home and on the road. Speaking of being on the road, they took both games of a doubleheader on Monday against the Chicago Cubs. They have now taken five of the last six meetings in this division rivalry. They have dominated Chicago taking nine of the last 11 in Wrigley Field and 20 of the last 26 overall matchups. The Cubs has sunk to fourth place in division, 12 games back at 19-29. With a combination of an erratic offense and just a horrible pitching staff, Chicago has fallen way short of expectations this season. Eric Lauer is 5-1 with a 2.31 ERA while Justin Steele is 1-5 with a 5.40 ERA. This game will get ugly. The Brewers are 6-2 the last eight on the road, 4-1 the last five vs. LH starters, and 19-7 the last 26 vs. the NL Central. Take Milwaukee. Thank you. | |||||||

Coming off back-to-back victories against the Yankees, the Rays are very excited to head to Globe Life Field where they are 10-4 the last 14 meetings with the Rangers. Today’s matchup is all about the starting pitching. Drew Rasmussen is 5-1 with a 2.68 ERA and Glenn Otto is 2-2 with 4.91 ERA are scheduled here. Rasmussen has worked at least five innings in each of his last six starts. And the team has won eight of his nine starts this season including seven straight.

Not only do the Mets have an eight-game lead in the NL East, but they are also one of the best road teams in the National League, sporting a 15-7 record away from home. The Giants are on a four-game slide and have Alex Cobb on the mound today. For New York, David Peterson gets the start. Between the combination of the San Francisco lackluster lineup and their horrible bullpen, look for New York to take another big win here today. The Mets are 21-6 the last 27 games vs. RH starters, 10-3 the last 13 games vs. teams with a winning record, and 8-3 the last 11 games vs. the NL West. Take the Mets. Thank you. | |||||||

Tampa Bay Rays. AL East Top-Rated play. Game 971. 4:05 pm pst. Tampa Bay seems to have a bit of a strong hold at the moment on second place in the American League East. And after winning at least 10 straight games in this division rivalry, including an early April sweep, the Rays dropped game 1 of this series yesterday in extra innings. Look for them to bounce back today with a vengeance and prove a point. They are 12-2 the last 14 meetings in Baltimore and 43-13 the last 56 meetings overall. Jeffrey Springs gets the road start. He is 1-1 with a 1.66 ERA on the campaign. Getting the nod at home is Kyle Bradish. He is 1-2 with a 5.06 ERA thus far. Look for Tampa Bay to get a little payback here today and further strengthen their standing in the division.

Los Angeles Angels. AL West GOW. Game 921. 5:05 PM PST/8:05 PM EST. It’s very simple for the Angels, just possess a top-five pitching staff along with a top-five lineup and you will start piling up victories. Los Angeles has won seven of the last 10 and are currently tied with Houston for the top-spot in the division. The Rangers, on the other hand rank in the bottom third both on the mound and at the plate. The only thing consistent about the Rangers is their inconsistency. The Angels have taken the last three meetings this season with their division rival and going back a ways, they have taken seven of the last 10 at Globe Life Field. Noah Syndergaard and Jon Gray are scheduled starters. Syndergaard is certainly more reliable and without a doubt, more durable. Los Angeles is 5-1 the last six games played on the road, 5-1 the last six versus right-handed starters, and 5-1 the last six versus the AL West. Take the Angels. Thank you. | |||||||

Texas Rangers. Home Run play. Game 968. 4:10 PM PST. I don’t know if there’s another American League team as disappointing as the Boston Red Sox. Dead-last in the American League East, 12 games back, with a dismal record of 11-20. Their pitching has been bad enough. But they’re hitting is absolutely nonexistent, ranking 28th, and averaging just 3.45 runs per game. Let’s go back to the pitching. Nick Pivetta starts today. The right-hander is 0-4 with a 6.08 ERA on the season. This includes a 0-2, 5.52 ERA mark in three road starts on the campaign. The team has lost all six of his appearances in 2022. He is just horrible. He must face a Texas Rangers team that is starting to show signs of life recently, winning seven of their last 10 outings.

Minnesota Twins. Triple play. Game 915. 4:05 PM PST. For the life of me, I can’t figure out why the best team in the AL Central is only a short favorite over the worst team in the AL East. Minnesota has taken Game 1 and 2 of this series by combined score of 9-3. Going back a bit, they have dominated Baltimore going 37-16 the last 53 meetings and 8-2 the last 10 meetings in Camden Yards. Both on the mound and at the plate, the Orioles are simply outclassed here. They are own one of the worst offenses in all of baseball ranking 29th and averaging just 3.08 runs per game. Well, this does not bode well as they must face a top-five pitching staff in the Minnesota Twins which own a Team ERA of 3.01. Minnesota is 4-0 the last four on the road, 4-0 the last four versus the AL East, 7-0 the last seven as a favorite, at 11-1 the last 12 overall. Take the Twins. Thank you. | |||||||

They took both ends of the doubleheader yesterday by a combined score of 8-4. Once again, this season their pitching staff is outstanding currently ranked third with a Team ERA of 2.99. But it has been their hitting that has put them over the hump and earning victories. Over the last few years their offense has not produced with any consistency. So far this year they are scoring runs. Tylor Megill gets the nod at home today. The right-hander is 4-0 with a 1.93 ERA this season and in four career starts against the Braves, he is 1-0 with a 2.75 ERA. I’m sticking with the red-hot Mets here. Take New York.

Losers of 11 of their last 13, the White Sox are slated in third place of the American League Central. In every major category, the Los Angeles lineup ranks in the top-five. They are simply crushing the ball. This is an area that Chicago is certainly struggling ranking 26th and averaging just 3.20 runs per game. The Angels have already taken two of three in this series and going back a bit, seven of the last 10 overall meetings in this rivalry. This includes four of the last five in Chicago.

They currently sit in third place in the American League East at 9-8 splitting out their last 10 games. To say the Mariners have dominated the Rays is an understatement. They took Game 1 of this series yesterday to give them eight wins in the last 10 meetings. They have been very successful a Tropicana Field winning six of the last eight matchups in the series on the road. They enter today’s meeting with a top-10 lineup and the top-10 pitching staff.

Well, the A’s have a solid lineup that will look to redeem themselves today. On the flipside they also have one of the most consistent pitching staffs in baseball in the opening month. The Orioles, well what can we say, they rank dead-last in baseball averaging just 2.00 runs per game. The pitching matchup of Wells and Blackburn significantly favors the home team here. Let’s not forget that Baltimore is 15-55 the last 70 games played on the road. And Oakland, with yesterday’s defeat, lost their first home game of the season after winning five straight going back to last season. Take the A’s. Thank you. | |||||||

Oakland. MVP play. Game 928. 3:05 pm pst. Well baseball fans, outside of the Texas Rangers, the Baltimore Orioles possess the American League’s poorest record at 3-8. It’s true, they are horrible. Particularly on the road where they are winless at 0-5. This is a team averaging a mere, 2.09 runs per game. They must now face a top-10 pitching staff in the Oakland A’s and specifically starter, Daulton Jeffries. In just under two weeks, the right-hander has proven to be the ace of the staff. In his short career, he has never faced Baltimore. However, in his two starts in Oakland, he owns a 2.70 ERA. The Orioles send Jordan Lyles to the mound. The right-hander is 0-1 with a 5.23 ERA thus far this season. And in eight games, including six starts has an overall career record against the A’s of 3-2 with a 4.22 ERA. Just because of the pitching situation I would definitely put a lean on the A’s here. But they also happen to own one of the most dangerous lineups in baseball accounting for over 5.00 runs per game. They are also 16-5 the last 21 meetings with Baltimore. Take Oakland. Thank you. | |||||||

The Rockies have taken Games 1 and 2 of this series to give them 6-1 mark the last seven meetings with the Phillies. As a matter fact, they have dominated Philadelphia in Coors Field as well, taking 21 of the last 29 meetings at home. Zach Elfin is 1-3 with a 7.40 ERA against the Rockies in his career. German Marquez is 3-1 with a 2.75 ERA lifetime against the Phillies. Colorado’s lineup ranks in the top-10 in every major category.

Los Angeles Dodgers. Best Bet play. Game 964. 7:10 PM PST. Don’t look now, but at 8-2, the Los Angeles Dodgers own the best record in all of baseball. With a combination of the top-ranked scoring offense and the third-ranked pitching staff, this team is mowing down any opponent in their way. The Atlanta Braves, along with the Los Angeles Dodgers are the two best teams in baseball the last two seasons. Atlanta is highly touted this season but currently own a record of 5-6. They just can’t seem to get in sync right now. They lost Game 1 of this series yesterday, 7-4. And going back a bit have lost six of the last 10 overall meetings with their National League rival. The offense ranks in about the middle of the pack in both leagues while the pitching staff ranks near the bottom. Max Fried and Walker Buehler are scheduled starters here. Fried is already 0-2 with a 5.73 ERA while Buehler is 1-0 to 3.38 ERA.

They took Game 1 of the series yesterday, 8-3 to now give the team four wins in the five meetings against their American League West rival already this season. With their lineup starting to show signs of life this team is very dangerous as they own a top-10 pitching staff with a Team ERA of 3.19. Both on the mound and at the plate, the Los Angeles Angels are very erratic. They’ve been hit with a boatload of injuries and that’s not helping their cause either. Patrick Sandoval and Framber Valdez are scheduled starters here. Sandoval is 0-3 with a 9.77 ERA in five career games (four starts) against the Astros. Valdez is 7-3 with a 3.60 ERA over 12 career games (eight starts) against the Angels.

Colorado Rockies. Best Bet. Game 908. 5:40 PM PST. One of the hardest places to play for any visitor in all of baseball is at Coors field. This does not bode well for a Philadelphia team that is just 1-3 this season on the road. Colorado has taken three of the last four meetings in the series. While both starting pitchers, Aaron Nola and Chad Kuhl have good past records against today’s opponents, so far this season the Rockies starter has looked much better. The combination of Colorado’s explosive sixth ranked offense (5.11 runs per game) stepping into the batters box 60 feet away from a Philadelphia pitching staff that ranks 26th (5.07 Team ERA) certainly benefits the home team here. The Phillies are 2-9 the last 11 games played in Colorado, 1-5 the last six games played on the road, and 0-5 the last five games played versus right-handed starters. Take the Rockies.

Both, at the plate and on the mound, they rank in the bottom half of the league, thus resulting in a four-game losing streak. On the other hand, Chicago is one of the hottest teams in baseball. Overall, they sport a 6-2 record. The lineup is starting to heat up while the pitching staff ranks in the top-five. They have taken both Games 1 and 2 of this series. And going back a bit, they have taken four straight meetings with their A.L. rival in Guaranteed Rate Field and five of the last seven overall meetings. Tampa Bay has a pitcher making his first start of his career while Chicago has a very experienced starter going today. The Rays are 0-5 the last five games played on the road while the White Sox are 5-1 the last six versus the American League East. Take Chicago. Thank you. | |||||||

Astros. HR. Game 977. 6:42 pm pst. Well, it didn’t take very long for Houston to take hold of first place in the American League West. Their hitting has been a little erratic. However, due to their Major League leading pitching staff, which ranks first in Team ERA with an anemic, 1.69 mark, they are winning. This does not bode well for a Seattle team that is struggling at the plate, ranking 28th, and averaging just 3.00 runs per game with a team batting average of .192 (also 28th). Odorizzi and Gonzalez are scheduled starters. The Houston starter went to 2-2 with a 3.91 ERA in five starts against the Mariners a season ago, striking out 28 and walking just 10 in 25 1/3 innings pitched. The Mariners starter, in 10 appearances, including nine starts against the Astros, is 1-6 with a 5.48 ERA.

St. Louis Cardinals. NL Central Game of the Month. Game 901. 12:10 PM PST. My friends, the St. Louis Cardinals have already jumped out to take a lead in the NL Central. The funny thing is, they are the only team in this division that is either trying to get newly-acquired players acclimated or in a rebuilding year. The other teams in this division will certainly take time to start to gel and get into a flow. That’s not the case here with this team. Their offense is clicking on all cylinders, ranking second in both leagues in scoring, averaging over 6.25 runs per game. They own a Team Batting Average of .271 which is good enough to rank third in both leagues, rank second in OPS at. 874, rank second in stolen bases with 14, and have already slammed eight home runs. Their opponent today, the Milwaukee Brewers have high hopes for the year. However, right now are falling way short of expectations as their offense ranks among the worst in both leagues. And let’s face it, their pitching leaves a lot to be desired as well. These two teams certainly know each other very well. The Cardinals have had their way in this series, taking six of the last seven meetings overall. And while visiting American Family Field, have taken the last four matchups in a row. Today, they send one of the National Leagues most experienced pitchers to the mound in Adam Wainwright. The right-hander looked very sharp in his first start of the campaign, tossing six scoreless innings and striking out six batters to earn a victory a week ago against the Pirates. In his career, “Uncle Charlie“ is 20-12 with a 2.60 ERA in 49 games against Milwaukee including 42 starts. A season go he was 2-1 with a 3.62 ERA in five starts versus the Brewers. Brandon Woodruff gets the nod at home. The right-hander had an awful first outing, only lasting 3.2 innings in last weeks 9-0 defeat at Wrigley Field. In his lifetime, he is 3-3 with a 3.30 ERA in 10 games versus St. Louis, including eight starts. He was 0-2 with a 3.97 ERA in four starts against the Cardinals last season. St. Louis is 9-1 the last 10 games as an underdog, 8-1 the last nine games during Game 1 of a series, 8-1 the last nine road games versus right-handed starters, and 22-6 the last 28 overall road games. Oh, by the way, they are also 15-4 the last 19 versus the NL Central and 4-1 the last five following an off day. Take the Cardinals. Thank you. | |||||||

Houston. BEST BET Play. Game 973. 12:40 pm pst. Don’t look now, but in just a week of play, the Houston Astros have already separated himself from the rest of the American League West division. They are playing some great baseball. With a record of 4-1, they are scoring over 4.4 runs per game while they possess the top-ranked pitching staff in baseball, sporting a Team ERA of just 1.64. Today they send Framber Valdez to the hill. The LH has already notched a win this season going 6.2 IP in a complete game shutout last week at the Angels, striking out six. Merrill Kelly gets the nod at home. The RH struck out seven in 4-0 IP against San Diego last Friday in a game the Diamondbacks lost 3-0. Houston took Game 1 of this series yesterday, 2-1 to give them their fifth victory in the last six meetings with Arizona. The Diamondbacks own one of the poorest lineups in baseball, accounting for just 2.4 runs per game. They are also 0-4 the last four games played at home 7-20 the last 27 games played versus the AL West, and 4-10 the last 14 during Game 2 of the series. Take the Astros. Thank you. | |||||||

Colorado. IL GAME OF THE WEEK. Game 927. 5:05 pm pst. With a combination of good hitting and solid pitching, Colorado is playing some very good baseball, resulting in a 3-1 record already. On the other hand, Texas is just 1-3 thus far, possessing one of the worst pitching staffs in baseball. The Rangers have a Team ERA of 5.91. While their hitting has been good, ranking second, it just can’t compensate for their poor pitching. Chad Kuhl and Martin Perez are set to take the mound today. Neither are Cy Young award candidates. But, Kuhl is definitely a little more consistent. The Rangers are 8-23 the last 31 Interleague games and 0-6 the last six as a favorite. Take the Rockies. Thank you. | |||||||

Chicago. NL Central Game of the Week. Game 901. 1:10 PM PST. Well sports fans, we’re just a week into the season, and it’s no surprise the Cubs are atop the division while the Pirates are closer to the bottom. Chicago takes to the road for the first time and normally, we look to fade them this early in the season away from Wrigley Field. However, this is a team that plays very well in this situation going 4-1 the last five games played on the road, 4-1 the last five games played versus division rivals, and 8-3 the last 11 games played as a road favorite. Left-hander, Drew Smyly comes off his best campaign since 2013 and is expected to be even better this year. Left-hander José Quintana comes off the worst season of his professional career. Chicago has taken nine of the last 10 meetings overall in this rivalry which does include five of the last six in Pittsburgh. The Pirates are 19-48 the last 67 games played versus the NL Central and 17-46 the last 63 games played versus left-handed starters. Take the Cubs. Thank you. | |||||||

Seattle. DOUBLE PLAY. Game 967. 4:40 pm pst. Today these two teams conclude a four-game series at Target Field. Seattle took both Games 1 and 2 but dropped Game 3 yesterday. They have had their way in this AL rivalry taking six of the last eight meetings going back to April of last season. Today’s matchup is all about the pitching. Chris Flexen gets the road start here. The right-hander was 14-6 with a 3.61 ERA last year. And over his career, in two starts against the Twins, owns a 1-0 record was 3.46 ERA. Dylan Bundy gets the nod at home. The right-hander was an ugly, 2-9 with a 6.06 ERA a season ago. Over his career he sports a respectable 3-3 record with a 2.70 ERA in nine appearances against Seattle which includes six starts. I know Minnesota counted for 10 runs yesterday but this team doesn’t have a very powerful lineup. I look for them to be bootstrapped by Flexen today while the Mariners, which are 12-3 the last 15 games overall going back to last season, beat up on Bundy. Seattle is 4-1 the last five meetings in Minnesota, 5-0 the last five games played following a loss, and 7-1 the last eight games played as a road underdog. Take the Mariners. Thank you. | |||||||

Boston. Crusher. Game 961. 2:10 pm pst. Although I’ve been a Las Vegas resident for over 32-years, I’m still a New Yorker at heart. And being a New Yorker, we never liked to praise anything from the state of Massachusetts. Having said that as a sports handicapper and sports bettor I will say this, the only issue the Red Sox have is the fact that they play in the same division with the Yankees, Rays, and Blue Jays. This is a very good team. There certainly is talent in the American League Central, but not like the American League East, which will most likely have four teams with 90+ wins this season. Boston opened the campaign against a very good New York team at Yankees Stadium and played very competitively taking Game 3 of the series. Detroit opened the campaign at home winning the opener and dropping Games 2 and 3 against Chicago. The Red Sox have dominated the Tigers taking eight of the last 11 meetings which does include five of the last seven at Comerica Park. Michael Watcha gets the road start here. The journeyman pitcher owns a very respectable 63-48 career record with a lifetime ERA of 4.14. Matt Manning in his first year in the big leagues, sported a 4-7 record with a 5.80 ERA. The Tigers offense is showing very little thus far while their pitching has already allowed over 19 runs. Boston is 4-1 the last five games played as a road favorite, while Detroit is 1-5 the last six games played as a home underdog. Take the Red Sox. Thank you. | |||||||

Milwaukee. GRAND SLAM. Game 969. 12:05 pm pst. Well sports fans, it’s no surprise that Baltimore has picked up this season just where they left off last season, losing. The Orioles have now dropped six in a row behind an offense that is averaging just 1.50 runs per game. By the way, that output is good enough to rank them dead-last in the league in scoring. I know it’s very early in the season, however, this team is just horrible. And things aren’t gonna’ look that much better for them in this matchup. Milwaukee sends Adrian Houser to the bump. The right-hander went a very respectable 10-6 with a 3.22 ERA last year. This does include a very strong finish as he completed the campaign with a 7-1 mark with a very low 2.65 ERA in his final 19 games (which did include 17 starts). Although it’s been a while, Milwaukee took five consecutive meetings against Baltimore spanning from 2014 to 2017. They are also very good against the American League East, going 7-2 the last nine versus division representatives. Bruce Zimmermann gets the home start. The left-hander was 4-5 with a 5.04 ERA in 2021. While he shows some good control, he really doesn’t have anything too threatening in his repertoire. The Orioles are 0-3 and have gotten plowed for 15 runs already. They are also 1-5 the last six in interleague play and 0-8 the last eight versus NL Central opponents. Take Milwaukee.

As a matter of fact, they’ve dominated Minnesota, taking six of the last seven meetings going back to last season. Today, Marco Gonzalez goes to the bump. The left-hander owns a very respectable 51–33, 4.06 ERA career marks and he comes off an impressive campaign. Bailey Ober takes the hill for Minnesota. The right-hander made his debut about 11 months ago and went 3-3 with a 4.19 ERA on the campaign. The Mariners have done quite well playing in Target Field taking the last four meetings. They are also 8-1 the last nine road games played versus right-handed starters, 7-0 the last seven games played as a road underdog, 21-6 the last 27 overall games played on the road and 13-3 the last 16 games played overall.

That’s just indicative of how Miami finds new and improved ways to lose games. The Giants, like most teams, have dominated the Marlins taking five of the last six meetings going back to last season. The 44-million-dollar man gets his first start with his new team today. Carlos Rodon went 13-5 with a 2.37 ERA last season with the Chicago White Sox. Reports are that the LH is in the best shape of his career, throwing nearly 100 mph. Getting the nod today for Miami is Pablo Lopez. The RH, in his four seasons in the Major Leagues owns an 18-21 record with a 4.04 ERA. Respectable numbers but has issues with control resulting in quite a few BB’s. The Marlins are once again touted to be one of the poorest teams in the National League while the Giants are predicted to be a very good team in the very competitive, NL West Division. Miami is 13-42 the last 55 on the road, 1-4 the last five versus LH starters, 1-6 the last seven versus the NL West, and 3-10 the last 13 overall. Take San Francisco. Thank you. | |||||||

As a matter fact they’re going to be even better this year. With newly-acquired starter, Robbie Ray, watch out for this team in this Division. The LH comes off of 13-7 year with Toronto in which he had a 2.84 ERA. In 193.1 IP, the crafty veteran notched to 248 strikeouts. To begin with, the Mariners took four of the last five meetings with the Twins a season ago. This is a good team. As a matter fact, they closed last season‘s campaign winning 11 of the last 14, going 19-7 the last 26 on the road, sporting a 6-0 record the last six games played as an underdog, and are good in the first game of the series going 6-1 the last seven in that situation. The 26-year-old, Joe Ryan is only making his sixth ever appearance in a big-league game. The RH had some respectable numbers a season ago, however does not have the experience or the savvy to face this very dangerous Seattle lineup. Take the Mariners. Thank you. | |||||||
