Straily has been one of the few bright spots for the Reds this season even though he was less than stellar in his last outing. Still, that game was on the road and at home he is 5-1 with an ERA of 2.94 and Cincinnati has won his last five home starts. He may have to pitch well tonight, as the Reds have struggled to score runs as of late totaling only nine runs in their last five games. The Cardinals have also had their issues at the plate lately totaling five runs in their last three games. Cincinnati is 21 games under .500 on the season, but they are 33-33 at home and can even the season series with the Cardinals with a win today. That is exactly what will happen, as Straily will bounce back at home and Garcia will continue to struggle in a Reds win.

Free Pick: Take the Reds +118

This AL West game pits an Astros pitching, which has been solid as of late, facing a Rangers offense that has averaged over seven runs per game in their five-game winning streak. The Rangers have had the Astros number this season winning 11 of 13 games against them. Fister has not been solid in three of his last four starts, but on the road this season he 9-3 with an ERA of 3.07. He did have a solid outing facing the Rangers in the beginning of August, but that game was at Houston. The Rangers have the best home record in the AL and while Griffin has not been lights out in the 2nd half he will not have to be great tonight with the Texas offense rolling. The Rangers will get to Fister in the first game of this series and they will win their 6th in a row.

Free Pick: Take the Rangers -125

Thursday Sep 1, 2016

Quintana has been one of the bright spots for the White Sox this season and since the All Star break he is 4-1 with a 1.81 ERA. He has a quality start in eight straight games. He may have to have another quality start tonight with the White Sox lineup not producing as of late. The Twins’ offense has not really been the main problem in their 13-game skid, but their pitching has. In the 13 games they have given up more than seven runs nine times. Santana was shelled in his last start and his last four starts have been on the road. The last time he pitched at home he got the win over the White Sox. Still, the White Sox will get the win behind Quintana tonight sending the Twins to their 14th straight loss.

Free Pick: Take the White Sox -125

The Marlins’ lineup has really been struggling as of late and they have only scored more than three runs in two of their last 10 games. On the other side of the coin the Mets have averaged six runs per game in winning eight of their last 10 games. They need their lineup to produce with a banged up starting rotation.

Miami’s Giancarlo Stanton, who leads the team in HR, and Justin Bour are out with groin injuries. The Mets’ lineup has been sparked by the return of Jose Reyes, Asdrubal Cabrera, and Yoenis Cespedes, who were all on the DL at the beginning of this month. With the struggling Miami lineup and with them only winning one of their last six games facing the Mets that equals a New York win tonight.

Free Pick: Take the Mets -115

Tuesday Aug 30, 2016

Tough call in this one, as Tanaka has been lights out in his last two starts, but in his only career start against the Royals, which was this season in May, he was tagged up for six earned runs in seven innings. Still, he has recorded a win in each of his last four starts and in that span he has only one walk and 30 strikeouts. The Royals have scored 18 runs in winning their last two games, but Tanaka will tame their bats tonight and the Yankees will get the win.

I would stay away from the Over in this one, as even though that has been the pick in the last five games between these teams both starters are coming off solid outings and runs may be sparse tonight.

Free Pick: Take the Yankees -135

Monday Aug 29, 2016

The Blue Jays have the slight 7-6 edge in the season series against the Orioles this season and in their last series facing them they won the first two games totaling 15 runs while losing the last game only scoring two. Orioles’ starter Miley will face a Blue Jays’ lineup that totaled 32 runs in their last series, which was a three-game sweep of the Twins. He has not been pitching well since coming over from Seattle, but in his 2nd to last start with them before the trade he held the Blue Jays to two runs in six innings in a 2-0 Mariners loss.

Marco Estrada has not pitched well in his last two outings and he has an ERA of 6.00 in four August starts. He has faced the Orioles three times this season and after the Blue Jays dropped his first start facing them they have won their last two against them with him on the hill. In his last two starts Estrada has given up five HR and he faces a Baltimore lineup that has the most HR’s in the Majors. Tough call in this one, but going with the Orioles. They have won both series at home this season facing Toronto and they will win the first game of this series in what will not be a pitcher’s duel, which is why the OVER is also a good pick.

Free Pick: Take the Orioles +110

Saturday Aug 27, 2016

Neither starter in this game has good numbers against the opposition with the Reds’ current roster hitting a lifetime .370 against Zack Godley and the Diamondbacks hitting .375 against Anthony DeScalafini. The big difference here is DeSclafani’s consistency with a 62.4 quality start percentage on the road compared to Godley’s 25% at home. I’d take a shot on the total here, but we have and high percentage UNDER umpire behind home plate, so that’s out. Cincinnati has had no problem hitting Arizona’s pitchers in four games this season and I feel that they’ll do a much better job this tonight getting some of those base runners across the plate.

Free Pick: Take the Cincinnati Reds - 119

Friday Aug 26, 2016

The Orioles have lost three straight games that Yovani Gallardo has started although has pitched well enough to have a better fate holding the opposition to three or fewer runs in each game. What he hasn’t done however is pitch well against the Yankees who have scored nine runs over 13 innings in his last two starts against them. Rookie Luis Cessa goes for New York and he’ll be making just his second career start. He looked great in his first one but his work in the bullpen was average and I can see a different outcome today. Both of these teams have been scoring well over the last handful or so of games and while the trend is to the under with five consecutive falling under the line, I believe that double digit runs are a strong possibility tonight. 

Free Pick: Take the OVER 9.5 -115

Thursday Aug 25, 2016

Rookie starter Ross Stripling faced the Giants in his career debut holding them hitless over 7 1/3 innings and I think he can repeat that performance tonight. San Francisco is ice cold having dropped four consecutive games and are on a 3-7 streak in their last ten as a dog. I’ll lay the small number and back the home side here.

Free Pick: Take the Los Angeles Dodgers -116

Wednesday Aug 24, 2016

It’s not like the Tigers are hot losers of five of their last ten games, but the five losses did come against arguably the two hottest teams in the AL. The Twins lost four straight to the sizzling before losing last night, so come into this game losers of five consecutive matches. They took the opener last night and look in line to take tonight’s game. They have a large edge in starting pitching with lefty Matt Boyd a superior option to Tyler Duffey. Boyd pitched six shutout innings against the Twins back in July and comes into this game allowing three or fewer runs in his last seven starts. Duffey pitched well in his start against the Tigers back in April, but he’s been very inconsistent this season and brings a 4-4 home record with a 6.67 ERA to the mound. The Twins have dropped five straight being outscored 33-9 and this game has number six written all over it.

Free Pick: Take the Detroit Tigers -106

Tuesday Aug 23, 2016

KC starter Yordana Ventura has a poor 4.46 earned run average on the season, but he’s put together three consecutive quality starts (against quality hitting teams) and hasn’t tossed a bad game since early July in Philly. Miami starter Andrew Cashner was starting to pitch well before the trade and he did pitch well in his latest, but was dreadful in his two previous with his new team. The Royals’ roster has had limited exposure to Cashner’s stuff, but have hit .368 versus him in 19 at bats with six of the seven batters hitting over .300. The visitor is on a roll with eight straight wins and the pitching staff has been exceptional allowing a combined 13 runs over that span. 

Free Pick: Take the Kansas City Royals -105

Monday Aug 22, 2016

The Astros bats are on fire having averaged 9.25 runs per game over their last four games and I expect them to have some success against rookie Jameson Taillon tonight. Tallion has been pitching well, but he hasn’t faced much in his last six with five of his six starts against some the National Leagues weakest offenses. Doug Fister takes the mound for Houston and while he hasn’t had his best stuff over the last two his historical stats against the Pirates current roster is solid holding them to a .241 on base percentage over 83 plate appearances. I’ll take a shot on the road team here at plus money.

Free Pick: Take the Houston Astros +136

Sunday Aug 21, 2016

The Astros’ offense has been on fire in the last two games of this series, and they have had success against the Orioles’ starter Yovani Gallardo with the current roster hitting a combined .312 against him. Houston starter Dallas Kuechel hasn’t been at his best in recent starts getting lit up in two of his last three and the Astros have lost his last three against the Birds, but his pitching performance wasn’t to blame. Baltimore’s stats against lefties are poor and with the way Houston is hitting the ball well lay the small number.

 

Free Pick: Take the Houston Astros -115

Saturday Aug 20, 2016

Both teams have been hot as of late, but I prefer the current form of the Rays’ Jake Odorizzi over A.J. Griffin. Odorizzi has been extremely sharp in recent games at home allowing two runs over 18 2/3 innings spanning three starts. Griffin has gone 11 starts without recording a quality start. Lay the small number. 

Free Pick: Take the Tampa Bay Rays -106

Thursday Aug 18, 2016

The Mariners are 12-3 in their last 15 games and send out arguably their go to guy this season. Hisashi Iwakumi doesn’t have the best road stats, but he does have a winning record and decent enough ERA of 4.17. He’s pitched well against the Angels in recent starts with the only sub-par outing coming in his last at home (6.1 innings pitched allowing four runs), but he stung together four quality starts before that including his last two in Angel Stadium. Matt Shoemaker gets the ball for the ball for Los Angeles and he has pitched well at home this season with a 70% QS rate, but hasn’t gotten the run support. The numbers look the same for his starts against Seattle recording a QS in three of his last four starts against them with the Angels dropping all four. With the scoring woes of LA and the probability of a quality start by Shoemaker the total seems like the safest bet but add in some action on the Mariners on this game as well. 

Free Pick: Take the UNDER 8 -105 - GM

Wednesday Aug 17, 2016

The Royals are the hot team here and from this side of the fence the better starter Yordana Ventura is the better starter in this match. Ventura has a nice 61.5% quality start rate on the road this season compared to Tigers’ starter Anibal Sanchez’ 30.8. The Royals starter has also had great success against the Tigers with four QS in his last five against them allowing a total of five runs over the five games. Sanchez has allowed 14 runs in his last three starts against Kansas City. He has been pitching better at home, but is coming off a beating in Texas, so his current form has to be questioned. I see the visitor here as the value play.

Free Pick: Take the Kansas City Royals +119 -GM

Tuesday Aug 16, 2016

The Red Sox pitching has been solid in their four game win streak and starter Eduardo Rodriguez has held the opposition to three or fewer runs in six straight starts. However, Rodriguez got lit up for five runs in 4 1/3 innings in his latest against the Orioles and brings an unenviable 5.81 road ERA into this game. His counterpart Yovani Gallardo also had a poor outing in his latest against today’s opponent getting lit up for five runs over five innings at Fenway back in April. He does pitch much better at home with a 2-0 record and 3.33 earned run average. The Orioles have a big scheduling edge with the Red Sox flying from Arizona to Cleveland on Sunday and then last night to Baltimore to take on the Birds today. That’s enough for me to back the team with the best home record in baseball

Free Pick: Take the Baltimore Orioles -103

Monday Aug 15, 2016

Miami has owned this series as of late taking all three earlier this season at home and the last two in 2015 for a five game series win streak. They may be in tough tonight against the Reds with lefty Brandon Finnegan on the mound. The marlins hit left-handed pitching well but Finnegan has had great stuff in recent outings allowing just three runs in his last three starts covering 18 innings. Miami starter David Phelps hasn’t recorded a quality start in his last five pitching five or less innings in each one. I’ll take a shot on the home team who is profitable 7-3 in their last ten at the Great American Ball Park.

Free Pick: Take the Cincinnati Reds +113 GM

Sunday Aug 14, 2016

I look to the Tigers today to get the job done today. Starter Michael Fulmer hasn’t faced the Rangers, but he comes into this game ultra-sharp with six quality starts over his last seven games and has held the opposition to three or fewer runs in nine of his last ten outings.  A.J. Griffin started the season out on a hot streak, but has failed to register a QS in his last 10 and didn’t look good in a start against the Detroit back in May when they got to him for three runs in just 2 2/3 innings in a 10-5 Tigers win. Texas has owned this series over the last ten getting the victory in eight of the games, but Detroit has shown signs of breaking out at the plate and the pitching matchup is favorable. 

Free Pick: Take the Detroit Tigers -102

Saturday Aug 13, 2016

Matt Shoemaker has been lights out good against the Tribe striking out 31 batters in 22 innings over three career starts. He has however had his troubles on the road this season going 3-8 with a 4.89 ERA and with the way that the Indians are swinging the bats they may turn the tables on him this time around. Cleveland hands the ball to Mike Clevinger who has yet to record a quality start in four lifetime starts and brings a bloated 6.97 ERA into this game. Dating back to last season six of the last seven in this series have gone over the total including three of four this season and that's where my money will be tonight..

Free Pick: Take the OVER 9 +100
