Rangers (Eovaldi) @ Diamondbacks (Gallen) 8:03 PM ET Game# 955-956 Play On: Diamondbacks -105 Nathan Eovaldi has an extremely profitable track record during his career postseason starts. This year has been no different when considering the Rangers are 5-0 this postseason when Eovaldi is their starting pitcher. However, he was uninspiring in the World Series opener when he allowed 5 earned runs during just 4 2/3 innings pitched versus Arizona. The Rangers have some wiggle room in this spot knowing that even if they lose, they’ll have 2 chances at home to capture the franchise’s first ever World Series crown. Zac Gallen has not been in good form over his last 3 starts. However, 2 of those outings came on the road where he was an ordinary at best pitcher all season. Nonetheless, Gallen is 12-5 during his home team starts this season with a brilliant 2.67 ERA/1.05 WHIP and a better than 6:1 strikeout to walk ration. Galeen made 1 home start versus Texas this season and allowed just 1 earned run in 6.0 innings and struck out 11 batters while doing so. The Diamondbacks bullpen pitched 8.0 innings last night. Arizona is an extremely profitable 15-4 this season immediately following a game in which they pitched 6.0 or more innings. Give me the Diamondbacks on the money line. |

Rangers (Heany) @ Diamondbacks (Mantiply) 8:03 PM ET Game# 951-952 Play On: Over 9.0 Texas is coming off yesterday’s 3-1 win which marked the first time they stayed under the total in 9 games. The Rangers will go with Andrew Heany on the mound tonight. Heaney hasn’t been god in 2 starts this postseason while recording a sizable 8.29 ERA/1.84 WHIP. Since 2021, Heaney has pitched 25-10 to the over during his team starts against teams with a winning record. Texas is 30-17 this season when facing a left-handed starting pitcher while averaging 6.0 runs scored per game and belting 68 home runs. The Texas bullpen is a bit taxed heading into today after pitching a combined 15.0 innings throughout the first 3 games of this World Series. Arizona will attempt to piece this game together with a bullpen by committee approach. They’ll be facing a potent Texas batting order which has slugged 26 homers in 15 games during this 2023 postseason. This is nothing new when considering the Rangers are averaging 1.46 home runs hit per game this season. Give me this game to go over the total. |

Rangers (Scherzer) @ Diamondbacks (Pfadt) 8:03 PM ET Game# 945-946 Play On: Rangers -108 I know Max Scherzer hasn’t been sharp in his 2 postseason starts. However, he’s been a proven clutch performer in past postseasons and will shine tonight. Texas is 8-0 on the road during this postseason and has outscored their opponents by a decisive margin 51-21. Brandon Pfadt has pitched extremely well during his last 3 postseason starts. Nonetheless, during his only starts versus Texas in 2023, Pfadt allowed 7 earned runs on 9 hits which included giving up 4 homers. Give me the Rangers on the money line. |

Diamondbacks (Gallen) @ Rangers (Eovaldi) 8:03 PM ET Game# 941-942 Play On: Rangers -1.5 (+134) Zac Gallen has been shaky over his last 3 postseason starts as evidenced by a 6.06 ERA/1.53 WHIP and 6 home runs allowed in 16 1/3 innings pitched. The latter home run to innings pitched ratio is especially concerning with Texas having hit 22 homers in 12 postseason games. Furthermore, the Rangers are averaging an enormous average of 1.79 homers hit per game at home this season. Nathan Eovaldi is an extremely profitable 10-1 during his career team starts in October. That includes 4-0 this year with a brilliant 2.42 ERA/0.96 WHIP and an average of 6.5 inning pitched per start. Texas reached the World series with a convincing 11-4 win in a deciding Game 7 at Houston. The Rangers are 21-6 this season following a game in which they scored 10 runs or more and outscored those 27 opponents by an average of 2.7 runs per outing. Give me the Rangers as a run-line favorite. |

Rangers (Scherzer) @ Astros (Javier) 8:03 PM ET Game# 933-934 Play On: Over 9.0 Max Scherzer has a reputation as a clutch postseason pitcher. However, I’m not showing him that type of respect at this stage of career and specifically today. Scherzer’s has made 2 starts versus Houston since 9/6 and had a terrible 12.00 ERA/2.00 WHIP in those outings. Houston’s Christian Javier has made 2 starts versus Texas in 2023 with an awful 9.00 ERA. The last 5 games of this ALCS have played 4-0-1 to the over. There’s been an extremely high percentage of bets and money placed on the under. I’m going with a contrarian approach. Give me this game to go over the total. |

Rangers (Eovaldi) @ Astros (Valdez) 8:03 PM ET Game# 925-926 Play On: Rangers +105 Houston continued its season long trend of being a fantastic road team by sweeping the 3 games in Texas and put themselves 1 win away from reaching another World Series. However, the Astros are just 40-45 at home this season and that includes going 3-10 in the last 13. Framber Valdez is scheduled to be on the mound for Houston tonight and he’s recently being in terrible form. During his last 4 starts, Valdez posted an awful 9.92 ERA/2.14 WHIP and averaged just 4.1 innings pitched per outing. It was a huge disappointment for Texas to lose all 3 at home after winning the first 2 of this NLCS at Houston. However, they can take solace in knowing that they’re a perfect 6-0 on the road this postseason. Additionally, Nathan Eovaldi get the start in Game 6 and he’s been in terrific form over 3 postseason starts while going 3-0 with a 2.29 ERA/0.86 WHIP. As a matter of fact, Eovaldi is 13-2 in his career postseason team starts and opponents averaged a mere 2.9 runs scored per outing during those 15 games. Give me the Rangers on the money line. |

The Phillies bullpen has a magnificent 1.63 ERA during postseason play. The Phillies have generated most of their run production in the playoffs via the long ball while belting 17 home runs in 9 games. However, the Diamondbacks will be attacking the Phillies tonight with a bullpen by committee approach. Arizona relief pitchers have allowed 0 home runs in 29.0 innings pitched during postseason play.

Astros (Verlander) @ Rangers (Montgomery) 5:07 PM ET Game# 911-912 Play On: Under 9.0 Justin Verlander has established himself as one of the best starting pitchers in postseason baseball over the past 2 decades. There’s no reason to think that will change tonight. Verlander has been in excellent form over his last 4 starts with a 1.05 ERA/0.93 WHIP. During his last 4 road starts Verlander recorded a sparkling 0.72 ERA. Verlander has made 2 starts versus Texas this season with a 1.98 ERA/0.95 WHIP in 13 2/3 innings pitched. The Astros bullpen has a terrific staff 1.47 ERA/0.69 WHIP throughout their previous 7 games. Jordan Montgomery has been magnificent for Texas down the stretch. During his last 7 starts the Texas lefty has a brilliant 1.22 ERA. During his 2 starts versus Houston this season Montgomery had a superb 0.69 ERA. The Rangers bullpen had a tough day yesterday, but they’ve been very good during a majority of postseason action. Give me this game to go under the total. |

Despite that result, they still can ill afford to lose tonight and fall behind 3-1 with another game to be played in Texas on Friday. The good news for Astros backers is their team is a terrific 54-30 on the road this season. That includes 7-1 in games played in Arlington. They’ll be facing Rangers lefty starter Andrew Heaney tonight. During his last 2 starts versus Houston this season Heaney recorded a lofty 5.58 ERA/1.65 WHIP. Give me the Astros on the money line. |

Phillies (Suarez) @ Diamondbacks (Pfadt) 5:07 PM ET Game# 905-906 Play On: Under 9.0 The first 2 games of this NLCS have gone over the total. However, it was more the result of the Phillies home run hitting prowess against Arizona starting pitching and each total closing at 7.5 than anything else. Arizona had a combined 3 runs scored and 8 hits through the first 2 games. Philadelphia pitcher Ranger Suarez made 1 start at Arizona this season and tossed 7.0 innings of scoreless baseball. Suarez posted a 1.04 ERA/0.58 WHIP during 2 postseason starts this year. The Phillies bullpen has a brilliant staff 1.09 ERA this postseason.

During his only start at Texas this year, Javier allowed 8 earned runs in just 4 1/3 innings pitched. Max Scherzer has proven to be a tremendous postseason pitcher throughout his career. However, this will be his first start in over a month after being sidelined with an injury. Additionally, Scherzer’s lone start versus Houston this season came at home on 9/6 and he allowed 7 earned runs in only 3.0 innings pitched while also surrendering 3 homers. Texas has averaged 5.6 runs per game while going 7-0 in postseason action. The Rangers are also 6.0 runs scored per game at home in 2023 while smacking 146 homers in 82 games.

Rangers (Eovaldi) @ Astros (Valdez) 4:37 PM ET Game# 965-966 Play On: Rangers +110 Houston is a very good 53-30 during away games this season. However, at home they’ve gone an inexplicable 40-44 which includes 3-9 in their last 12. The Astros slated starter Framber Valdez has exhibited poor form over his last 3 starts with a 9.22 ERA/1.97 WHIP. During his lone postseason start which came at home versus Minnesota, Valdez allowed 5 earned runs in just 4 1/3 innings pitched. Nathan Eovaldi is an extremely underrated postseason pitcher. He has a career 12-2 postseason team start record in which opponents averaged a mere 2.9 runs scored per game. This postseason has been no different, Eovaldi has made 2 starts this October with a fabulous 1.32 ERA/0.81 WHIP in 13 2/3 innings pitched. During 9 day game starts this season, Eovaldi has an outstanding 2.92 ERA/1.11 WHIP. The Texas bullpen has been very good during this postseason with a staff 1.86 ERA/1.04 WHIP.

Yes, he only averaged 5.0 innings pitched per outing. However, this is a superb Phillies bullpen that just over the last 7 games alone has compiled a 1.29 ERA/0.86 WHIP. The Braves have averaged only 2.3 runs per game, possess a team batting average of .196, and a team on-base percentage of .250 during the first 3 games of this NLDS. On a positive note for Atlanta, Spence Strider will make the start tonight.

Braves (Elder) @ Phillies (Nola) 5:07 PM ET Game# 931-932 Play On: Phillies -118 Bryce Elder was just named the Braves starting pitcher this morning. Elder enters the postseason in shaky form based on his last 3 starts which saw him record a 7.80 ERA/1.87 WHIP. One of those appearances came against Philadelphia when he allowed 4 earned runs in 5.0 innings of work. Elder also hasn’t been sharp over his last 5 road starts while compiling a 6.49 ERA/1.71 WHIP during those outings. Since 9/23/2022, Aaron Nola made 3 home starts versus Atlanta and held them scoreless over 18.0 innings pitched. Nola has exhibited excellent form over his last 3 starts overall with a 1.31 ERA/0.71 WHIP while averaging 6.3 innings pitched per outing. The Phillies bullpen did blow a save in Game 2.

Orioles (Kremer) @ Rangers (Eovaldi) 8:03 PM ET Game# 925-926 Play On: Orioles +125 Nathan Eovaldi was arguably a Top 5 MLB starting pitcher during the first half of this season and was mentioned as an early American League Cy Young Award candidate. However, his performance lines have tapered off considerably since. That certainly has reared its ugly head over his last 4 home starts with Eovaldi recording a terrible 7.90 ERA/1.90 WHIP during those outings and n4 home runs allowed through just 13 2/3 innings pitched. The Orioles had a storybook 2023 regular season which saw them win 101 games and capture an American League East Division title. Nevertheless, after losing the first 2 games of this ALDS at home, Baltimore finds themselves on the brink of elimination. The Orioles schedule starting pitcher Dean Kremer has far from dominating numbers this season. Yet, Baltimore is 24-8 in his 32 starts and that includes 15-2 when facing teams like Texas that possess a winning record. Baltimore keeps their season alive with a win in Game 3.

Arizona is 3-0 in the 2023 postseason and allowed 3 runs or fewer in each game. However, they’re a dismal 2-11 this season after allowing 4 runs or fewer in each of their previous 3 games. The Dodgers are coming off an embarrassing 11-2 loss in Game 1 of this National League Divisional Series. However, the Dodgers have gone a dominating 17-3 this season following a game in which they allowed 9 runs or more. Los Angles is also 25-5 this season immediately following a loss by 4 runs or more. The Dodger’s Bobby Miller has exhibited good form over his last 3 starts with a 1.96 ERA/1.15 WHIP. Give me the Dodgers as a money line favorite. |

Wheeler has also been in top form during his last 4 starts overall with a 2.28 ERA/1.01 WHIO and a 6:1 strikeout to walk ratio. The Phillies bullpen has been excellent and especially so over their previous 7 games when they compiled a staff 1.29 ERA/0.89 WHIP. The Phillies have allowed a grand total of 2 runs in their 3 postseason games. Atanta’s Max Fried has also been in superb form over his last 4 starts while recording a 1.88 ERA/0.96 WHIP.

Quite frankly, with a WHIP of 2.54 in those outings Kelly was extremely lucky to come out of those starts with just 7.27 ERA. Clayton Kershaw has made 2 home starts versus Arizona this year and posted a superb 1.64 ERA/0.91 WHIP while also recording just shy of a 5:1 strikeout to walk ratio. As a matter of fact, Kershaw is 8-2 in his home team starts this season with a brilliant 1.58 ERA/0.84 WHIP. Since 2021, the Dodgers have gone an extremely profitable 21-5 at home versus Arizona. The Dodgers are a very impressive 53-28 at home and 74-39 when facing right-handed starting pitchers this season. Give me the Dodgers as a run-line favorite. |

Nola has been extremely shaky throughout his last 4 starts versus teams with a winning record while recording a a large 7.65 ERA/1.60 WHIP. Miami dropped Game 1 of the series last night 4-1. Nevertheless, the Marlins are 8-2 in their last 10 following a loss in their previous game. The Marlins Braxton Garrett has gone 10-5 in his road team starts this season with a stellar 2.85 ERA/1.04 WHIP.

Diamondbacks (Gallen) @ Brewers (Peralta) 7:08 PM ET Game# 957-958 Play On: Under 7.5 Zac Gallen has made 2 starts versus Milwaukee this year and was brilliant in both outing while allowing just 1 earned run on 5 its and walked 2 in 14.0 innings. The Arizona bullpen has been extremely good of late while posting a staff 1.31 ERA/0.76 WHIP over their previous 7 games. The Diamondbacks scored 6 runs last night which was mostly due to them smacking 3 home runs in the first 4 innings. However, we must keep into perspective, this is the same Arizona team that closed out their regular season schedule by scoring a combined 6 runs in their last 5 games and only averaged 4.0 hits per game throughout that stretch. Freddy Peralta has been lights out in his last 5 home starts while recording an excellent 1.48 ERA/0.46 WHIP during that stretch. The Brewers bullpen has a solid staff 2.25 ERA/1.16 WHIP throughout their previous 7 games. Milwaukee squandered opportunity after opportunity last night while scoring only 2 runs despite pounding out 12 hits and left 11 men on base. That won’t get nearly the opportunities to score tonight than they had last night against Arizona’s ace. Give me this game to go under the total. |

Marlins (Luzardo) @ Phillies (Wheeler) 7:08 PM ET Game# 945-946 Play On: Marlins +133 Jesus Luzardo is the lesser know of these 2 starting pitchers but has more than held his own this season. As a matter of fact, Miami is 6-1 versus fellow NL East teams this season when Luzardo was their starting pitcher and the young lefthander’s stellar 2.38 ERA/1.15 WIP during those outings was a major contributor to that success. During his last 4 starts versus teams not named Milwaukee, Luzardo has compiled a brilliant 0.75 ERA/0.71 versus some pretty good hitting teams like the Rays, Dodgers, Braves, and Padres. Miami has been in postseason mode for quite a while now as they’ve been batting for a Wild Card spot, they finally clinched on the nest to last day of regular season action. The Marlins have also held their own this season versus the defending National League champion Phillies by going 7-6 during those head-to-head meetings which includes 4-2 at Philadelphia.

Diamondbacks (Pfadt) @ Brewers (Burnes) 7:05 PM ET Game# 949-950 Play On: Over 7.5 Despite Arizona being anemic offensively over the final week of regular season action this total moved from an opening number of 7.5 to 8.0. Some of that mover may be due to the slated Arizona starting pitcher Brandon Pfadt. During regular season play Pfadt made 18 starts and posted a lofty 5.70 ERA while surrendering 19 home runs in 90 innings pitched. The Diamondbacks have played 7-0-1 to the over in their last 8 on the road this season immediately following an off day and there was a combined average of 14.0 runs scored per game. Former National League Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burnes has once again had a very good season. However, his ERA was much better on the road than at home where 9 of his 14 starts went over the total and he posted an ordinary 4.27 ERA during those outings. During his lone start at home versus Arizona this year, Burnes allowed an alarmingly high 7 earned runs in 5.0 innings of work. Milwaukee has played 12-4 to the over at home versus NL West teams this season and there was a combined average of 10.3 runs scored per game. Give me this game to go over the total. |

Blue Jays (Gausman) @ Twins ( Lopez) 4:38 PM ET Game# 947-948 Play On: Blue Jays +103 Pablo Lopez has been shaky over his last 3 starts with a 6.46 ERA. During his only start versus Toronto this year which came at home, Lopez went an uninspiring 5 2/3 innings and allowed 4 earned runs on 5 hits including 2 surrendering 2 homers and walking 2. The total in this game is currently 7.0. Minnesota is a solid 47-34 at home this season but just 9-18 when there’s a total of 7.0 or 7.5. The indicator being when they face a quality starting pitcher at home, they don’t fare well at all. This is a Twins franchise that has struggled in the postseason during the past 25 years while going a miserable 6-27 in those high-profile games. Kevin Gausman has been very good in 3 of his last 4 starts. During that stretch the veteran Blue Jays hurler posted a stellar 1.75 ERA/1.01 WHIP. The Blue Jays have gone a solid 46-35 on the road this season and 39-27 during day games. Give me the Blue Jays on the money line. |

The Mariners are a dismal 6-18 this season when facing starting pitchers like Jordan Montgomery that possess a 3.70 ERA or better. Seattle is also a money-draining 8-23 in 2023 when facing teams like Texas that have a +1.0 or greater run per game differential. Seattle enters today feeling the pressure of losing 5 of their last 6 and in jeopardy of missing the postseason as a result. Texas is on the doorstep of winning the AL West and with a win at the very least will clinch a postseason berth. The Rangers scheduled starter Jordan Montgomery has been brilliant over his last 3 starts while compiling a 0.43 ERA and he went 7.0 innings on each occasion. The Rangers bullpen has a solid 2.84 ERA over their last 7 games. Montgomery faced Seattle once this season and pitched 7.0 innings of scoreless baseball. The Rangers enter today having won 8 of their last 9. Give me the Rangers on the money line. |

Cubs (Stroman) @ Braves (Smith-Shawver) 7:20 PM ET Game# 957-958 Play On: Over 9.5 Marcus Stroman has been brutal over his last 4 starts while posting a 13.85 ERA/2.77 WHIP and averaging just 3.3 innings pitched per outing. The Cubs bullpen has struggled of late with a staff 5.67 ERA/1.59 WHIP and they allowed an alarmingly high 6 home runs in 27.0 innings. That’s surely concerning when facing the best home run hitting team in baseball the Atlanta Braves who’ve belted 303 home runs this season. The Cubs have gone over the total in 8 of their last 11 games. A.J. Smith-Shawver has displayed bad form over his last 3 starts while recording a large 7.07 ERA/1.50 WHIP while also allowing 7 homers in just 14.0 innings pitched. Atlanta has gone over the total in 18 of their last 22 games. They’ve also played 12-1 to the over on Thursdays this season and 24-6 over when facing NL Central Division teams. The Braves have also seen their last 4 versus the Cubs all go over the total and there was a combined average of 12.0 runs scored per game. Give me this game to go over the total. |

Red Sox (Sale) @ Orioles (Kremer) 6:35 PM ET Game# 965-966 Play On: Orioles -125 Chris Sale is still a very good starting pitcher but certainly not the dominant force he once was. As a matter of fact, during his 3 starts versus Baltimore this season Salle had an awful 13.50 ERA/2.25 WHIP and gave up 5 homers in 12.0 innings pitched. The Red Sox are only averaging 3.0 runs scored per game throughout their previous 7 outings. The Red Sox are an abysmal 7-21 in their last 28 games and that includes a current 4-game losing streak. Conversely, Baltimore has won 4 in a row and is on the cusp of clinching the AL East title. Additionally, Baltimore is 36-17 this season when facing left-handed starting pitcher like Chris Sale. I’m not crazy about Orioles starter Dean Kremer, but Baltimore is 15-3 at home this season when’s he’s their starting pitcher. Give me the Orioles on the money line. |

Cole has made 3 starts against Toronto this season with a brilliant 0.46 ERA. New York has averaged just 3.3 runs scored per game over their last 7 outings. Jose Berrios has been in very good form throughout his previous 4 starts while posting a 2.80 ERA/0.93 WHIP and just shy of a 9:1 strikeout to walk ratio. Toronto has played 40-2-2 to the under at home this season with Berrios as their starting pitcher and his stellar 3.11 ERA/1.15 in those outings was a key contributor to the low scoring games. The Blue Jays bullpen has been solid over their last 7 games with a staff 2.84 ERA/1.19 WHIP. Give me this game to go under the total. |

Cubs (Steele) @ Braves (Elder) 7:20 PM ET Game# 957-958 Play On: Over 9.5 Justin Steele has enjoyed a terrific season for the Cubs. However, he's struggled mightily over his last 2 starts while allowing 12 earned runs over 9.0 innings pitched. Steele made 1 uninspiring start versus Atlanta this season in which he allowed 3 earned runs in 5 1/3 innings pitched. He was fortunate to give up only 3 earned runs in that outing when considering he allowed 8 hits and walked 4. The Cubs have averaged 6.4 runs scored per game throughout their last 7. Additionally, the Cubs have scored 6 runs or more in 6 of their last 8 games. Atlanta has played 20-11 to the over this season when facing left-handed starting pitchers like Justin Steele and belted 58 homers during those 31 games. Atlanta has also played 16-4 to the over in their last 20 games heading into today. Atlanta's Bryce Elder has made 1 starts versus the Cubs in 2023 and allowed 5 earned runs on 7 hits while walking 3 over only 4 1/3 innings pitched. Elder hasn't been good at all in his last 2 starts while allowing 8 earned runs on 12 hits which included 3 homers and walked 3 batters in 8 2/3 innings pitched. Give me this game to go over the total. |

Snell has made 5 starts versus San Francisco since last season and had an excellent 0.61 ERA during those outings while striking out 46 in 29 2/3 innings pitched.

Seattle has gone a dismal 8-20 this season when facing teams like Texas that have a +1.0 or greater run per game differential on the season. Texas is 5-1 versus Seattle this season and that includes 3-0 when playing at home. Texas is coming off a 15-5 blowout win over Boston in their previous game. The Rangers are an extremely profitable 19-6 this season immediately following a game in which they scored 10 runs or more, and they outscored their opponents by a decisive margin of 2.5 runs per game. Dane Dunning has a stellar 1.19 WHIP in 9 home starts this season while averaging a healthy 6.0 innings pitched per outing. Dunning was rock-solid in his lone start versus Seattle this season while allowing just 2 earned runs over 6.0 innings of work. Give me the Rangers on the money line. |

Giants (Harrison) @ Dodgers (Sheehan) 10:10 PM ET Game# 909-910 Play On: Dodgers -1.5 (+115) The Giants Kyle Harrison has displayed bad form over his last 3 starts while recording a 7.36 ERA/1.57 WHIP and allowed an alarming 6 home runs during just 14 2/3 innings pitch. That recent home rate allowed by Harrison is especially noteworthy considering the fact he’ll be facing one of the top power hitting teams in baseball tonight. Furthermore, the Giants bullpen has been terrible over their last 7 games while posting a staff 6.14 ERA/1.81 WHIP. Lastly, the Giants have gone an abysmal 5-25 in their last 30 away games. The Dodgers are coming off a 4-2 home loss to Detroit last night that halted a 5-game win streak. However, Los Angeles is 4-0 in their last 4 immediately following a loss and outscored their opponents by a wide margin 34-7 or 6.7 runs per game. Additionally, since 2021, the Dodgers are 46-11 at home with a +2.8 run per game differential immediately following an outing in which they scored 2 runs or less. Emmet Sheehan is scheduled to start for the Dodgers, and he has a stellar 2.92 ERA/0.97 WHIP in 5 home starts this season. The Los Angeles bullpen has been lights out over their last 7 games while recording an excellent staff 1.24 ERA/0.96 WHIP. Give me the Dodgers as a run-line favorite. |

Pirates (Oviedo) @ Cubs (Hendricks) 7:40 PM ET Game# 907-908 Play On: Over 8.5 Th wind will be blowing in from rightfield at 10 MPH at Wrigley Field tonight. That’s always something to assess when playing a total in that ballpark. Nevertheless, it’s been much worse than that on many occasions this year and this total is extremely reasonable with all things considered. The Pirates Johan Oviedo has made 4 career starts at Wrigley and with a lofty 6.52 ERA/1.91 WHIP. Oviedo also has a horrible 2.35 WHIP during his last 3 starts while walking 12 batters in only 12 1/3 innings pitched. The Pirates bullpen has a dismal 6.75 ERA over their last 7 games, and they’ve surrendered 7 homers in 34 2/3 innings pitched. Pittsburgh has played 17-5 to the over this season when facing a National League team averaging 5.0 or more runs scored per game. The Cubs are coming off yesterday’s 13-7 home loss to Pittsburgh in a game their bullpen allowed 7 earned runs in 6.0 innings. The Cubs played 9-0 to the over this year immediately following a game in which their bullpen allowed 5 earned runs or more. Kyle Hendricks has an uninspiring 4.96 ERA/1.41 WHIP over his last 3 starts. The Cubs are averaging 5.7 runs per game throughout their last 7 and with an outstanding .350 team on-base-percentage. |

Since the start of last season, Kelly has made 3 home starts against San Francisco and compiled a brilliant 1.69 ERA/0.61 WHIP and averaged 7.1 innings pitched per outing. The Diamondbacks bullpen has been very good over their last 7 games while posting a staff 2.25 ERA/1.19 WHIP.

During his last 3 starts Feltner compiled a terrible 8.71 ERA/2.42 WHIP and averaged just 3.4 innings pitched per appearance. Colorado is an abysmal 22-54 on the road this season which includes 2-16 in their last 18 away. Adding more to that road futility is the fact that Colorado is 3-33 as a road money line underdog of +200 or greater this season and they were outscored by an average of 3.4 runs per game. One more final note, the Rockies are 2-22 on the road this season versus teams like San Diego who are at a +0.5 or greater run per game differential. The Padres are currently riding a 5-game win streak in which they outscored their opponents by an average of 4.8 runs scored per outing and all 5 of those wins came by 2 runs or more. Throughout their previous 7 games, the Padres have averaged 7.6 runs scored per game and belted 14 home runs. The Padres are scheduled to have their ace Blake Snell take the mound this evening.

That’s a major concern for the Tigers since Cincinnati has belted 14 home runs and has a terrific .355 team on-base-percentage during their previous 7 games. Detroit is coming off wins in each of their last 2 games while defeating the White Sox 3-2 and 3-1. However, the Tigers are an abysmal 0-7 at home this season immediately following 2 straight games in which they allowed 3 runs or less and were outscored by an average of 3.4 runs per outing. Brandon Williamson has been excellent over his last 3 road starts while compiling a 2.04 ERA/0.96 WHIP.

During that identical time frame, the Padres also have an impressive .292 team batting average and .358 on-base-percentage.

David Peters has an uninspiring 1.58 WHIP over his last 4 starts. Couple that with a Mets bullpen 1.56 WHIP over their last 7 and their relivers 19 walks in 24 1/3 innings pitched and it’s a recipe for losing.

Kopech has allowed an alarmingly high 28 homers during 120.0 innings pitched this season. That’s genuine cause for concern considering he’ll be facing an Orioles team which has belted 12 home runs during their previous 7 games. The White Sox are coming off home wins over the lowly Oakland A’s on Saturday and Sunday. However, they haven’t put together a 3-game win streak since 8/6 and did so just once since 6/8. The White Sox bullpen has an unappealing 5.90 ERA over their previous 7 games and that includes allowing 6 homers in 29.0 innings pitched.

That shapes up to be problematic for Giolito considering he’ll be facing a Phillies team that’s averaged 6.4 runs scored per game, hit .309 as a team, recorded a team on-base-percentage of .366, and smacked 15 homers throughout their previous 7 outings. Making matters even worse, the Angels bullpen has a dismal 6.62 ERA/1.79 WHIP as a staff over their previous 7 games while also allowing an eye-catching 7 homers in 34.0 innings of work.

Wacha has also been superb in form day game starts this season with a 1.12 ERA/0.88 WHIP. The Padres bullpen has been very good over the past week. However, their offense has been silent and they were hitting just .182 as a team and averaged 3.1 runs scored per outing over their last 7 games heading into the weekend. The Brewers Adrian Houser is a perfect 6-0 during his team starts in day games with a shiny 3.03 ERA/1.06 WHIP. Houser has made 3 home starts versus the Padres since 2019 and posted a brilliant 1.80 ERA/0.87 WHIP in those appearances. The Milwaukee bullpen has been extremely good of late.

The Twins bullpen has been shaky over their previous 7 games while recording a staff 4.98 ERA/1.85 WHIP and they walked 17 batters in 21 2/3 innings pitched. Throughout their previous 7 games, Minnesota is averaging 5.7 runs scored per game and belted 13 homers. Some of you may be scratching your head when seeing this pick, and consequently feeling uncomfortable betting a game over with Max Scherzer as one of the starting pitchers. However, as much as Scherzer has been dominant in his home starts this season that’s not been the case on the road. Scherzer has pitched 8-4-1 over on the road this season with a lofty 4.79 ERA. The most concerning part of Scherzer’s road starts is that he’s allowed 20 homers in 73.3 innings pitched. Couple that with the fact that he’ll be facing a Twins team which averages 1.48 homers hit per game at home and identically 1.48 hit per outing during 97 games versus right-handed starting pitchers, and he points toward a perfect storm. Furthermore, the Rangers bullpen has been brutal over the last 7 games while posting a 8.69 ERA/1.66 WHIP as a staff and they gave up 7 homers in 29.0 innings. Give me this game to go over the total. |

We have a red-hot Texas Rangers team that’s won 10 of their last 11 versus a San Francisco Giants club that lost 4 in a row and 6 of their last 7, and it’s the latter who comes up as a sizable favorite. They’re begging us to bet Texas but we’re not taking the bait. The Giants Brandon Webb has been superb during 11 home starts this season while recording a 2.58 ERA/0.99 WHIP and averaged 7.0 pitched per outing. Since 2021, Webb is 26-12 during his team starts versus team with a winning record. Additionally, the Giants are 15-6 this season versus teams like Texas who own a win percentage of between .540 and .620. Since the start of last season, Dane Dunning is a dismal 5-17 during his road team starts. Dunning has a lofty 5.40 ERA/1.50 WHIP during his last 3 road starts in which Texas went 1-2. Give me the Giants on the money line. |

Heading into this weekend the Boston bullpen had a lofty 6.50 ERA/1.72 WHIP over their previous 7 games. The Red Sox are coming off a 6-2 home loss to Detroit on Saturday and the continue to struggle offensively. Boston has scored 3 runs or fewer in 10 of their last 16 games. The Tigers are a more than respectable 10-6 over their previous 16 away games. Give me the Tigers as a money line underdog. The Tigers Eduardo Rodriguez has been solid all season long with a 2.75 ERA/1.05 WHIP in 19 starts while averaging 6.0 innings pitched per outing. Rodriguez has an even better 2.15 ERA/0.89 WHIP during 10-day-game starts. Heading into the weekend, the Tigers had a bullpen 2.16 ERA/1.20 WHIP over their previous 7 games.

The Oakland bullpen has a miserable 6.28 ERA/1.66 WHIP on the road. The A’s have scored 3 runs or fewer in 9 of their last 10 games which includes 2 or fewer in each of their previous 3. Oakland is an abysmal 3-24 this season when scoring 2 runs or less in each of their previous 2 outings they were outscored by a decisive average margin of 3.7 runs per game. Washington is a more than respectable 13-8 during their previous 21 games. Furthermore, the Nationals are 10-2 in their last 12 at home. Conversely, Oakland is 2-11 in their last 13 on the road. Although I’m not crazy about their starting pitcher Jake Irvin, the Nationals bullpen has a stellar 2.63 ERA/0.99 WHIP over their last 7 games. Give me the Nationals as a money line favorite. |

Royals (Lyles) @ Red Sox (Pivetta) 7:10 PM ET Game# 971-972 Play On: Over 10.5 Jordan Lyles has seen each of his previous 3 starts go over the total and his 7.47 ERA/1.53 WHIP during those outing were major contributing factors to those high scoring affairs. Lyle has surrendered an alarmingly high 23 home runs in 118 1/3 innings pitched this season. Lyles has made 5 starts versus Boston since last season and had a miserable 8.10 ERA during those appearances.

Astros (Valdez) @ Orioles (Rodriguez) 7:05 PM ET Game# 915-916 Play On: Orioles +113 Yes, I am fading a starting pitcher in Framber Valdez who tossed a no-hitter in his last outing. My personal experience when witnessing an ample sample size of no-hitters over the past 2 decades is that pitchers coming off those monumental feats are more often than not nowhere near as sharp in their next start. Besides, during his previous 3 starts prior to the no-hitter, Valdez had a large 9.00 ERA/1.80 WHIP. The Astros bullpen has a deceivingly low ERA throughout their last 7 games. During that span, Astros relievers have an uninspiring 1.65 WHIP while walking 18 batters in just 20.0 innings pitched. Houston is coming off a 9-7 win at Yankee Stadium on Sunday in a game they belted 4 homers. The Astros are 5-15 since the start of last year immediately following a game in which they hit 4 or more home runs. The Orioles Grayson Rodriguez has exhibited very good form over his last 3 starts with a 2.55 ERA/0.79 WHIP. The Baltimore bullpen has a superb 0.44 ERA over their previous 7 games. Baltimore is 27-12 this season when facing lefthanded starting pitchers like Framber Valdez while averaging 6.1 runs scored per game, compiling a .315 team batting average, and an excellent .382 on-base-percentage. The Orioles enter this series having won 4 straight and 7 of their last 8 games. Give me the Orioles on the money line. |

Yankees (Cole) @ White Sox (Cease) 8:10 PM ET Game# 969-970 Play On: Yankees -1.5 (+100) The White Sox will be facing one of the Top 5 dominant pitchers in MLB tonight. If that’s not tough enough, they’ve averaged a mere 2.6 runs scored per game over their previous 7 outings. The White Sox slated starter Dylan Cease has been horrible in his last 2 starts while allowing 11 earned runs, 11 hits, and walked 5 batters in just 7 1/3 innings pitched. Cease is 0-3 in his career teams starts versus the Yankees and with a massive 9.54 ERA and each of those outings transpired since 2021. Gerrit Cole has been extremely good in a high percentage of his starts this season. Cole has displayed superb form over his last 4 starts with a 1.71 ERA/0.68 WHIP while striking out 34 batters and wlaked just 4. Since the start of last season, the Yankees are 15-0 versus AL Central Division teams like Chicago when Gerrit Cole is their starter. Give me the Yankees on the run-line. |

Gavin Williams is the slated starter for Cleveland, and he’s displayed poor form over his last 5 starts with a 1.65 WHIP. The Guardians bullpen has a staff 1.62 WHIP over their last 7 games which leaves much to be desired. The Blue Jays are 13-4 in their last 17 on the road. That includes coming off a 3-game sweep over Boston this past weekend in which they averaged 8.3 runs and 14.7 hits per game. Hyun-Jin Ryu makes his second sart of the season after returning from a 13-month stint on the disabled list. I expect him to be much better than in his season debut last week.

However, that lack of run production is a bit deceiving when considering the fact, they amassed a combined 35 men left on base during those 3 games. Prior to the stretch, the Angeles had scored 6 or more runs in 6 of their previous 7 games. Additionally, the Halos have smacked 12 home runs over their last 7 games. The Angels slated starting pitcher is Griffin Canning and he posted a sizable 6.05 ERA/1.50 WHIP during his last 4 starts.

Giolito’s road performance line in 2023 leaves much to be desired as it reads a 5.25 ERA/1.58 WHIP during 11 starts. Furthermore, Giolito has an abysmal 4-17 team start record since the start of last season as a money line underdog of +100 or greater like he’ll be today. Granted the Angels are a red-hot 8-1 in their last 9. However, they played a doubleheader at Detroit yesterday and will be facing a Toronto team that was off on Thursday. It’s also worth noting that the Angels are 8-17 this season when facing teams like Toronto who have a win percentage of between .540 and .620. Kevin Gausman has been terrific in 9 home starts this season while recording a 2.58 ERA/0.99 WHIP and averaged a healthy 6.6 innings pitched per outing. Since the start of last season, Toronto is 3-0 when facing Lucas Giolito as an opposing starting pitcher.

Orioles (Bradish) @ Phillies (Suarez) 6:05 PM ET Game# 971-972 Play On: Orioles -101 The Phillies Ranger Suarez has displayed bad form over his last 4 starts with a 6.14 ERA/1.86 WHIP. Quite frankly with a WHIP that high Suarez is fortunate that his terrible ERA wasn’t worse. The Phillies aren’t exactly ripping the cover off the ball of late averaging a mere 3.1 runs scored per game and recording a miserable .190 team batting average over their previous 7 games. The Orioles Kyle Bradish has exhibited extremely good form over his last 5 starts while compiling a 1.38 ERA/0.87 WHIP and averaging a healthy 6.5 innings pitched per outing. Despite blowing a 9th inning lead, The Orioles bullpen has a superb 2.74 ERA/1.17 WHIP over their previous 7 games. Baltimore is a very profitable 24-10 this season when facing left-handed starting pitchers like Ranger Suarez is. Baltimore is also a terrific 32-19 on the road this season. Give me the Baltimore Orioles on the money line. |

Angels (Canning) @ Tigers (Rodriguez) 6:40 PM ET Game# 909-910 Play On: Tigers -119 The Angels Griffin Canning has exhibited bad form over his last 3 starts while recording a large 6.90 ERA while averaging just 4.8 innings pitched per outing. The Angels are coming off a successful 6-3 homestand. However, they’ve lost 6 consecutive away games heading into today. The Tigers are slated to go with lefthander Eduardo Rodriguez on the mound and has a sparkling 2.69 ERA/0.97 WHIP in 14 starts this season while averaging 6.0 innings pitched per outing. Rodriguez will be facing an Angels team that’s gone a dismal 10-18 in 2023 when facing lefthanded starting pitchers. You may be surprised to know that Detroit has gone a respectable 7-4 in their last 11 and 19-15 during their previous 19 games. The Tigers will be facing an Angels team that has a current record of 51-49 (.510). Why is that worth mentioning? Because Detroit is an extremely profitable 11-1 this season when facing teams with a win percentage of between .510 and .540. Give me the Detroit Tigers on the money line. |

Rangers (Gray) @ Astros (Bielak) 8:10 PM ET Game# 963-964 Play On: Astros -102 Jon Gray is enjoying a very good season when scanning over his season long performance line. However, he’s hit a bit of a wall of late which is apparent by his 1.70 WHIP over his last 4 starts. Additionally, the Rangers bullpen which has been an obvious enigma to an otherwise stellar season to this point has a staff 8.10 ERA over their last 7 games while allowing a whopping 7 homers in 26 2/3 innings pitched. The Houston starter Wade Bielak has exhibited extremely good form over his last 3 starts with a 1.02 ERA/0.85 WHIP during that span. The Astros bullpen has a solid 3.38 ERA/1.22 WHIP throughout their previous 7 games. Give me the Houston Astros on the money line. |

07-22-23 | Dodgers v. Rangers UNDER 9.5 | 16-3 | Loss | -120 | 3 h 23 m | Show | |
Dodgers (Miller) @ Rangers (Dunning) 4:05 PM ET Game# 971-972 Play On: Under 9.5 Bobby Miller of the Dodgers has pitched extremely well on the road this season with a 2.11 ERA/0.98 WHIP in 4 starts. The Dodgers bullpen has been lights out over their last 7 games while compiling a staff 1.03 ERA/0.95 WHIP and yielding only 1 home run in 26 1/3 innings pitched. Texas is coming off last night’s 11-5 loss to the Dodgers and that game easily sailed over the total of 9.5. However, the Rangers have played 5-0 to the under in their last 5 immediately following an under and there was a combined average of 6.6 runs scored per game. Dan Dunning has been rock-solid for the Rangers this season while posting a 3.20 ERA/1.12 WHIP during in 13 starts. Dunning also has averaged 6.1 innings pitched per start which also includes 6.4 at home. Giving his team that kind of length when called upon to start covers up for the flaws the Rangers bullpen has and minimizes the risk of wasting one of his stellar performances. Give me this game to go under the total. |
