The Dodgers are also an extremely profitable 30-10 since the start of last season after allowing 8 or more runs in their previous game. Walker Buehler has made 6 career starts versus the Reds and recorded a stellar 2.76 ERA/1.02 WHIP in those outings. As a matter of fact, Buehler previous start came at home versus Cincinnati last Saturday and he pitched 6.0 innings of scoreless baseball. Give me the Dodgers as a money line wager.

Yankees (Rodon) @ Padres (Darvish) 9:40 ET

Play On: Under 7.5

The Padres Yu Darvish has been completely dominant over his last 4 starts while not allowing any earned runs in 24.0 innings pitched and recorded a terrific 0.54 WHIP during those outings. The Padres bullpen has been excellent throughout their previous 7 games while posting a staff 1.09 ERA/0.77 WHIP.  Darvish will be facing a Yankees lineup which has smacked 15 homers over the last 7 games. However, the Padres veteran right-hander has allowed only 2 homers in 9 starts this season and that includes 1 at home in 30 2/3 innings pitched.

Carlos Rodon has allowed 2 earned runs or fewer and went 6.0 innings or more in 5 of his last 6 starts. The Yankees bullpen has been very good this season and especially on the road. New York is coming off 2 consecutive wins and that’s significant. Dating back to last season, the Yankees have played 15-1 to the under in their last 16 away games immediately after winning their last 2 outings. Give me this game to go under the total.

Braves (Morton) @ Cubs  (Assad) 7:40 ET

Play On: Cubs +106

Charlie Morton has made 1 start this season and 1 last year versus the Cubs a posted an awful 9.82 ERA/2.18 WHIP. Atlanta has been mirred in an offensive slump while averaging only 2.9 runs scored per game over their last 7.

Javier Assad has been terrific for the Cubs this season while recording a superb 1.49 ERA/1.03 WHIP over 9 starts. During his lone starts versus Atlanta this season he pitched 6.0 innings of scoreless baseball. The Cubs bullpen has an impressive staff 1.50 ERA/1.08 WHIP throughout their previous 7 games. Since the start of last season, the Cubs are a stellar 27-15 at home when facing teams like Atlanta (27-17) that have a winning record. Give me the Cubs on the money line.

Tigers Olson) @ Royals (Wacha) 7:40 PM ET

Game# 963-964

Play On: Tigers -101

The Royals Michael Wacha has posted a lofty 5.40 ERA/1.60 WHIP during 3 home starts this season. The Kansas City bullpen has been shaky over their last 7 games which is evidenced by a sizable 5.89 ERA and 1.42 WHIP as a staff.

Reese Olson of Detroit has been in excellent form over his last 4 starts with a brilliant 0.69 ERA/0.92 WHIP while averaging a noteworthy 6.5 innings pitched per outing. The Tigers bullpen has been sharp of late while compiling a staff 2.22 ERA/1.01 WHIP throughout their previous 7 games. Give me the Tigers on the money line.

Game# 951-952

Play On: Under 8.0

The Royals Cole Ragans has been brilliant in 3 road starts this season with an 0.47 ERA while averaging 6.3 innings pitcher per start. The Angels Tyler Anderson has a shiny 2.50 ERA/1.11 WHIP during 3 home starts in 2024. The Los Angeles bullpen has an impressive 0.81 WHIP over their previous 7 games. The Halos have scored exactly 1 run in 5 of their last 9 games. Give me this game to go under the total.

Nationals (Irvin) @ Red Sox (Criswell) 4:10 PM ET

Game# 927-928

Play On: Under 8.5

The Red Sox Cooper Criswell has an impressive 1.47 ERA/0.98 WHIP during 4 starts this season. Boston’s bullpen has been terrific is 15 days games this season while compiling a staff 2.53 ERA/1.18 WHIP. The Red Sox has gone under in 7 consecutive games when the total has been 8.0 or greater. Boston has also played 7-0 to the under this season versus teams like Washington who average 2.75 or fewer extra base hits per game.

Jake Irvin of the Nationals has recorded a very good 2.25 ERA/0.91 WHIP during 4 road starts this season. He’s also been solid in 4-day game starts with a 2.86 ERA/1.18 WHIP. Give me this game to go under the total.

Braves (Elder) @ Dodgers (Glasnow) 9:10 PM ET

Game# 959-960

Play On: Under 8.5

Atlanta has played 10-0 to the under in their last 10 and there was a combined average of just 5.8 runs scored per game. Bryce Elder has pitched 2-0 to the under in his 2 starts this season with a stellar 1.50 ERA and went 6.0 innings on both occasions. Elder made 2 career starts versus the Dodgers while recording a 1.50 ERA and both occurred last season. He also went 6.0 innings on both those occasions as well. The Braves bullpen has a sparkling 2.42 ERA/1.15 WHIP on the road in 2024.

The Dodgers have played 5-0 to the under in their last 5 when the total was 9.5 or less. Tyler Glasnow has been very good in 7 starts this season with a 2.72 ERA/0.93 WHIP. The Dodgers bullpen has been excellent throughout their previous 7 games with a staff 1.33 ERA/0.96 WHIP. Give me this game to go under the total.

Giants (Winn) @ Phillies (Suarez) 6:05 PM ET

Game# 955-956

Play On: Under 7.0

The Giants have scored 3 runs or fewer in each of their last 8 and played 6-0-1 to the under in the previous 7 games. The Giants Keaton Winn has been terrific over his last 3 starts while posting a 1.50 ERAS/0.78 WHIP while averaging 6.0 innings pitched per start and all 3 of those games went under the total. The Giants bullpen has overall terrible numbers this season. But. throughout their previous 7 games they’ve really turned things around with a staff 2.76 ERA while recording 34 strikeouts in 29 1/3 innings pitched.

Ranger Suarez has been superb during his first 6 starts of the season with a brilliant 1.32 ERA/0.63 WHIP while averaging 6.8 innings pitched per outing. Believe it or not, he’s been even better than that throughout his last 4 starts with a 0.30 ERA and better than 7:1 strikeout to walk ration while averaging 7.5 innings pitched per start. Since the start of last season, Suarez has pitched 11-0 to the under after allowing 2 earned runs or less during each of his previous 2 starts. Give me this game to go under the total.

Rangers (Dunning) @ Royals (Wacha) 7:10 PM ET

Game# 967-968

Play On: Royals -102

Kansas City enters today on a 3-game win streak in which they allowed 1 run on each of those occasions. The Royals are 20-13 this season have an impressive +1.7 run per game differential. This sets up a terrific MLB money line betting angle supporting the Royals which is displayed below.

Any MLB team that’s outscoring their opponents by an average of 1.0 or more runs per game and they’ve allowed 1 run or fewer in each of their previous 3 games, resulted in those teams going 30-4 (88.2%) since 2020. Those 34 teams had an average money line of -112 and outscored the opposition by a sizable 2.9 runs per game. Give me the Royals on the money line.

Twins (Paddack) @ Angels (Soriano) 9:38 PM ET

Game# 915-916

Play On: Twins +103

Twins have won 5 in a row and outscored the opposition by a cumulative 30-14. The Angels have gone 1-7 in their last 8 and averaged a tad over 3 runs per game during that stretch. The Twins bullpen has been solid over their previous 7 games with a solid staff 2.52 ERA/1.16 WHIP. The Angles bullpen has a terrible staff 5.55 ERA at home this season. Give me the Twins as a money line bet.

Mets (Quintana) @ Giants (Winn) 9:45 PM ET

Game# 961-962

Play On: Mets +102

Since starting the season 0-5, the Mets have gone a terrific 12-4. The Mets Jose Quintana is 3-0 in his last 3 team starts with a stellar 2.81 ERA. The Mets bullpen has been lights out over their previous 7 games with a staff 2.05 ERA/0.87 WHIP and they recorded an impressive 38 strikeouts in 26 1/3 innings pitched. Conversely, the Giants bullpen has a lousy 6.29 ERA/1.148 WHIP throughout their previous 7 games. The Mets are 6-2 in night games this season while San Francisco is a dismal 3-9 in that identical role. Give me the Mets on the money line.

Cardinals (Gibson) @ Diamondbacks (Nelson) 8:10 ET

Game# 905-906

Play On: Cardinals -104

Ryne Nelson has made 2 starts for Arizona so far and had a horrible 8.21 ERA/1.83 WHIP while lasting only a combined 7 2/3 innings. That’s even more alarming when you consider the Arizona bullpen has a shaky staff 5.64 ERA/1.79 WHIP over their previous 7 games. Nelson has 1 career start versus St. Louis and that took place last season. It was certainly an uninspiring performance as he allowed 5 earned runs, 8 hits, and walked 3 in 6.0 innings. Despite having a subpar 6-8 record. Arizona is a +1.0 run per game differential. However, that’s a bit deceiving when considering they’re 5-2 versus Colorado (4-10) with a +2.0 run per game differential and 1-6 against everyone else.

Kyle Gibson has gone 6-0 in his teams starts on the road since last season when facing teams like Arizona who have a +0.5 or greater run per game differential. Gibson has made 4 starts versus the Diamondbacks since 2020 and posted a stellar 2.35 ERA/1.17 WHIP during those outings. The St. Louis bullpen has been solid over their last 7 games with a staff 3.33 ERA/1.26 WHIP. Give me the Cardinals on the money line.

Rangers (Dunning) @ Astros (France) 8:10 PM ET

Game# 965-966

Play On: Astros -121

The oddsmakers are begging you to take the defending world champion Texas Rangers as an underdog versus a Houston team that’s started the season 4-10. Additionally, Houston is coming off being swept in a 3-game series at Kansas City  with the last 2 losses coming by embarrassing score of 13-3 and 11-2. Yet here they are as the favorite in this matchup. When it looks to good in sports betting more times than not it is.

Since 2022, Dan Dunning has gone a miserable 8-22 during his road teams starts and an even worse 3-12 if facing a club with a losing record. Sice last season, Dunning is an atrocious 3-18 during his team starts throughout the first 81 games of the season. Texas enters this series having lost 4 of their last 5. Give me the Astros as a money line favorite.

Royals (Wacha) @ Mets (Severino) 7:10 PM ET

Game# 973-974

Play On: Royals +123

The Mets return home after coming off a successful 5-2 road trip. However, they’re just 1-5 at Citi Field this season. Luis Severino has gone an abysmal 2-13 in his team starts since 2022 when the money line was +125 to -125.

Don’t look now but the Kansas City Royals have won 7 in a row and outscored their opponents by a cumulative score of 48-13 while doing so. Michael Wacha has made 3 starts this season and posted a stellar 2.25 ERA/0.58 WHIP. Wacha is 17-7 in his team starts since last season when the money line is +125 to -125. The Royals bullpen has a brilliant 0.77 ERA as a staff throughout their previous 7 games. Give me the Royals on the money line.

Orioles (Irvin) @ Red Sox (Crawford) 7:10 PM ET

Game# 969-970

Play On: Red Sox -110

Baltimore’s Cole Irvin was shaky in 4 spring starts while posting a 6.23 ERA/1.85 WHIP. He walked an alarmingly high 13 batters in 17.0 innings pitched during those appearances. Those struggles carried ove to his regular season debut and lone 2024 start when he allowed 4 earned runs on 7 hits while walking 2 versus Kansas City. Irvin has made 1 career start at Fenway Park and it came last year when he allowed 6 earned runs on 4 hits during just 4.0 innings pitched.

Kutter Crawford has been excellent in his first 2 starts of the season while posting a 0.84 ERA. The Red Sox bullpen is coming off a bad day in yesterday’s 7-1 loss to Baltimore. However, they still have a terrific staff 1.95 ERA over their previous 7 games.

The Red Sox finished last season with a disappointing 78-84 (.481) record. They finished last season by going a dismal 6-14 over their final 20 games. Any MLB money line favorite of -110 or greater that’s playing in their first 12 games of the season, and they finished the season before with a win percentage of .450 to .550 while losing 14 or more of their last 20 games, resulted in those money line favorites going 38-6 (96.4%) since the 2020 season began. Give me the Red Sox on the money line.

Diamondbacks (Gallen) @ Rockies (Freeland) 8:40 PM ET

Game# 957-958

Play On: Diamondbacks -1.5 (-115)

Since 7/9/2022, Kyle Freeland has made 5 starts versus Arizona and compiled a terrible 8.89 ERA during those outings. That includes a start at Arizona last week in which he allowed a whopping 10 earned runs on 10 hits over just 2 1/3 innings pitched.  The Rockes bullpen has been awful to start the season with a staff 7.28 ERA/1.93 WHIP.

Arizona began the season by taking 3 of 4 at home versus Colorado and outscored them 32-14. Since 2020, Zac Gallen has made 5 starts at Coors Field in Denver and posted a terrific 2.18 ERA/0.73 WHIP. The Arizona bullpen has been solid thus far with a staff 3.55 ERA/1.08 WHIP. Give me Arizona on the run line.

Mariners (Castillo) @ Blue Jays (Berrios) 7:07 PM ET

Game# 965-966

Play On: Blue Jays -112

Luis Castillo has been shaky in 2 starts this season with a 6.75 ERA/1.78 WHIP. The Mariners are coming off a 3-game series at Milwaukee in which their bullpen had a miserable 8.67 ERA/2.03 WHIP as a staff.

Toronto will be playing their home opener today after beginning the season on a 10-game road trip. Jose Berrios has been very good in 2 starts with a 2.25 ERA and averaged 6.0 innings pitched per outing. Give me the Blue jays on the money line.

Orioles (Wells) @ Pirates (Falter) 4:05 PM ET

Game# 973-974

Play On: Orioles -133

The Pirates Bailey Falter was terrible in 3 spring starts in addition to a shaky 2024 regular season debut. The Orioles Tyler Wells has 1 career start versus Pittsburgh and that came last season. During that outing, Wells was brilliant while allowing 0 earned runs on 1 hit and striking out 8 over 7.0 innings pitched. The Baltimore bullpen has been rock-solid thus far in 2024 with a staff 2.38 ERA/0.93 WHIP while also amassing better than a strikeout per inning pitched. Since the start of the 2021 season, the Orioles are an excellent 17-2 as a money line road favorite of -125 or greater and they outscored their opponents by an average of 2.7 runs per game. Give me the Orioles as a money line favorite.

Astros @ Rangers 8:05 PM ET

Game# 917-918

Play On: Rangers +120

These teams played in the ALCS last season which was won by Texas in 7 games. The real oddity to that series was the road team winning on each occasion. I look for the home team Texas Rangers to put that trend to rest tonight. This will be the Astros first road game of the season and they’re currently a disappointing 2-5. The Houston bullpen has not performed well thus far while posting a staff 6.00 ERA/1.67 WHIP and they allowed 6 homers in just 21.0 innings pitched.

Any American League home team like Texas that’s averaging 5.4 runs or more scored per game, and they allowed 1 run or less in their previous game, resulted in those home teams going 30-6 (83.3%) since the start of the 2020 season. The home teams average outscoring those road clubs by an average of 2.7 runs per game. Give me the Rangers on the money line.

Angels (Anderson) @ Marlins (Luzardo) 6:40 PM ET

Game# 971-972

Play On: Over 8.5

Both bullpens have been shaky to start the season and is a major reason for each team being involved in large percentage of high scoring games. The Marlins have witnessed all 5 of their games going over the total with a combined average of 11.8 runs scored per outing. The Angel have played 3-1 to the over thus far with a combined 11.7 runs being scored per game. The Halos smacked 6 homers in those 4 games. The Angels Tyler Anderson has pitched 31-11 (73.8%) to the over in his career road starts when there’s been a total of between 8.5 to 10.0. Anderson has also posted a lofty 5.67 ERA/1.50 in his career regular season appearances during the months of March and April. Give me this game to go over the total. The Angels will be facing Marlin’s lefty Jesus Luzardo. Dating back to last season, the Angeles have played 7-1 to the over in their last 8 on the road when facing a lefthanded starting pitcher with a combined average of 12.6 runs scored per outing. Give me this game to go over the total.

Giants (Keaton) @ Dodgers (Paxton) 10:10 PM ET

Game# 909-910

Play On: Over 8.5

San Francisco went over the total in each of their first 4 games of the season and there was a combined average of 11.7 runs scored per outing. During that stretch they averaged 6.2 runs scored per game and hit 6 homers. The Giants starter Keaton made 1 career start versus the Dodgers, and it came last season. He allowed 6 earned run and included 3 homers in just 5 1/3 innings pitched. The Dodgers have scored 5 or more runs in each of their first 6 games and have smacked 10 homers. Give me this game to go over the total.

Yankees (Gil) @ Diamondbacks (Nelson) 9:40 PM ET

Game# 927-928

Play On: Yankees -114

Diamondbacks starter Ryne Nelson has terrible numbers in his career team starts at home and all appearances during the month of April. Aince the art of last season, Arizona is 10-22 versus American League teams like the Yankees who are allowing an average of 4.4 runs or less per game.

Both teams are off to a great start with the Yankees at 4-0 and Arizona 3-1. However, the Yankees bullpen didn’t allow an earned run in their 4-game sweep at Houston. Yankee starter Luis Gill was sharp in 3 spring training starts with a 2.87 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and struck out 23 batters in 15 2/3 innings pitched. The Yankees allowed 4 runs or fewer in each of their 4 wins at Houston to start the season. Since the start of last season, the Yankees are an extremely profitable 11-2 on the road after allowing 4 runs or less in each of their previous 4 games. Give me the Yankees on the money line.

Reds (Abbott) @ Phillies (Sanchez) 6:40 PM ET

Game# 905-906

Play On: Reds +132

One thing that’s been consistent for the Phillies over the last 2 years as they’ve been an underachieving bunch in the 1st half of the season and terrific during the remainder of both seasons. The Phillies started the season 1-2 and their bullpen has been horrible. Cincinnati has won 2 of their first 3 while averaging 6.7 runs scored per game and hit 6 homers while doing so. Reds starter Andrew Abbott went 9-3 in his team starts as a money line road underdog of +100 or greater last season. Abbot was also 6-0 in his team starts since last season whenever there was a total of 8.5 to 10.0 like it currently is for this matchup. Give me the Reds as a money line underdog.

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.

Phillies (Sanchez) @ Diamondbacks (Mantiply) 8:07 PM ET

Game# 913-914

Play On: Under 9.5

Chris Sanchez has a sparkling 2.16 ERA/0.92 WHIP this season in 5 road starts. 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. Give me this game to go under the total.

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.

Astros (Urquidy) @ Rangers (Heaney) 8:03 PM ET

Game# 907-908

Play On: Astros -102

The Astros came away with an 8-5-win last night to cut their series deficit to 2-1. 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.

Arizona has played 44-31-7 to the under this season at home. Their bullpen has a respectable 3.51 ERA during the postseason while allowing 0 home runs in 25 2/3 innings pitched. Brandon Pfadt pitched 4 1/3 innings of scoreless baseball in the NLDS clinching home win versus the Dodgers. Pfadt has pitched 13-3 to the under this season when there was a total of 8.5 to 10.0. Arizona is coming off a 10-0 loss in Game 2 on Tuesday night. The Diamondbacks have played 14-5 to the under at home this season when facing a left-handed starting pitcher like Ranger Suarez is.

Astros (Javier) @ Rangers (Scherzer) 8:03 PM ET

Game# 901-902

Play On: Over 9.0

Houston hitters have an abysmal .165 team batting average throughout their previous 3 games. However, the Astros have played 7-0 to the over this season following a 3-game stretch in which they had a team batting average of .200 or worse and there was a combined 13.8 runs scored per game. The Astros are a stellar 53-30 on the road this season and hit an eye-catching 136 home runs while doing so. As a matter of fact, Houston has belted 13 home runs in 6 postseason games thus far. Houston starter Christian Javier has a lofty 4.82 ERA 17 starts on the road this season and those games played 12-5 to the over. 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. Give me this game to go over the total.

Diamondbacks (Kelly) @ Phillies (Nola) 8:07 PM ET

Game# 971-972

Play On: Under 7.5

The 2 scheduled starting pitchers have been in recent excellent form. Merrill Kelly has a 1.44 ERA/0.96 WHIP and averaged 6.3 innings pitched per outing over his last 4 starts. Aaron Nola has a 1.44 ERA/0.76 WHIP over his last 3 starts and averaged 6.4 innings pitched per appearance. Each of these bullpens have been lights during this postseason. Philadelphia relievers have a combined 1.25 ERA/1.20 WHIP and the Diamondbacks bullpen has a staff 1.54 ERA/1.11 WHIP.  The Arizona bullpen is 4-4 on their save opportunities and Philadelphia is 4-5 this postseason. Give me this game to go under the total.

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. The Rangers enter today having gone 6-0 this postseason with 5 of those games taking place on the road. Make it 7-0! Give me the Rangers on the money line.

Braves (Strider) @ Phillies (Suarez) 8:07 PM ET

Game# 943-944

Play On: Under 8.5

Since 7/25/2022, Ranger Suarez has made 6 starts against Atlanta and posted an excellent 0.90 ERA during those outings. 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. Strider has made 5 starts against Philadelphia this season with an exceptional 2.18 ERA/0.85 WHIP and averaged a healthy 6.6 innings pitched per outing. Give me this game to go under the total.

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. However, despite that mishap they have a terrific staff 1.46 ERA/0.73 WHIP throughout the previous 7 games. Give me the Phillies on the money line.

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. Give me the Orioles as a money line underdog.

Diamondbacks (Gallen) @ Dodgers (Miller) 9:07 PM ET

Game# 919-920

Play On: Dodgers -146

Zac Gallen was awful in his only 2 starts at Dodger Stadium this season while recording a 9.90 ERA/2.10 WHIP and he surrendered an alarming 4 homers in just 10.0 innings pitched. 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.

Phillies (Wheeler) @ Braves (Fried) 6:07 PM ET

Game# 917-918

Play On: Under 8.0

Zack Wheeler has made 2 starts at Atlanta this season and was magnificent in both while posting a 0.64 ERA during 14.0 innings pitched. 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. Give me this game to go under the total.

Diamondbacks (Kelly) @ Dodgers (Kershaw) 9:20 PM ET

Game# 9:07-908

Play On: Dodgers -1.5 (+105)

Merry Kelly has made 2 starts at Dodger Stadium this season and posted an awful 7.26 WHIP/2.54 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.

Phillies (Suarez) @ Braves (Strider) 6:07 PM ET

Game# 901-902

Play On: Under 8.5

Spencer Strider is 4-0 during his team starts against Philadelphia this season with an excellent 2.42 ERA/0.81 WHIP while striking out 38 batters in 26.0 innings pitched. Since 7/25/2022, Ranger Suarez has made 5 starts versus Atlanta and compiled a terrific 1.03 ERA during those outings. This will be the 7th postseason start for Suarez since last year and opponents averaged a mere 2.7 runs scored per game in the previous 6. The Phillies bullpen staff has been lights out of late while recording a 1.33 ERA/0.85 WHIP throughout their previous 7 games. Give me this game to go under the total.

Marlins (Garrett) @ Phillies 8:08 PM ET

Game# 953-954

Play On: Marlins +137

Aaron Nola has made 3 starts versus Miamin and wasn’t very good while doing so as evidenced by a 6.75 ERA/1.50 WHIP during those outings. 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. The Marlins lefty has also exhibited very good form over his last 3 starts with a 2.25 ERA/1.00 WHIP and 4:1 strikeout to walk ratio. Give me the Marlins as a money line underdog.

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. Give me the Marlins on the money line.

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.

Rangers (Montgomery) @ Mariners (Gilbert) 9:40 PM ET

Game# 969-970

Play On: Rangers +100

For starters, Texas has gone 8-1 this season versus Seattle. Seattle’s Logan Gilbert has been shaky over his last 4 starts with a 5.09 ERA/1.44 WHIP and Seattle was 0-3 in those games. 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.

Yankees (Cole) @ Blue Jays (Berrios) 7:07 PM ET

Game# 917-918

Play On: Under 7.0

Gerrit Cole is 6-0 in his last 6 team starts with a dominating 1.59 ERA/0.78 WHIP while recording a better than 9:1 strikeout to walk ratio. 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.

Padres (Snell) @ Giants (Webb) 9:45 PM ET

Game# 901-902

Play On: Under 7.0

Both starting pitchers have been in terrific form in recent starts. Blake Snell has a dominating 0.56 ERA over his last 5 starts. 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. Logan Webb has strung together 5 quality starts in a row and in his last 3 has a terrific 1.80 ERA/0.95 WHIP while averaging a healthy 6.7 innings pitched per start. Webb has made 3 starts versus San Diego this year and recorded a 0.83 ERA/0.74 WHIP with all 3 games staying under. Give me this game to go under the total.

Mariners (Miller) @ Rangers (Dunning) 8:05 PM ET

Game# 971-972

Play On: Rangers -120

Bryce Miller has made 1 start versus Texas this season and allowed 7 earned runs on 8 hits while walking 2 in just 2 1/3 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.

Giants (Webb) @ Diamondbacks (Kelly) 3:40 PM ET

Game# 953-954

Play On: Under 7.5

Merrill Kelly has pitched 12-1 to the under in his 13 home starts this season with a stellar 3.04 ERA/1.04 WHIP and averaged 6.2 innings pitched per outing. 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.

Logan Webb has been in terrific form over his last 3 starts while recording a 1.74 ERA/0.68 WHIP and averaging 6.9 innings pitched per outing. Webb has pitched 10-3 to the under during his starts in day games this season and with a 2.41 ERA/1.00 WHIP.  Webb has made 3 starts versus Arizona this year and had a splendid 2.57 ERA/0.86 WHIP.

Rockies (Feltner) @ Padres (Snell) 9:40 PM ET

Game# 911-912

Play On: Padres -1.5 (-135)

Ryan Feltner will be making his first start since 5/13. 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. During his last 4 starts Snell has recorded a brilliant 0.72 ERA and the Padres won all 4 of those by 3 runs or more. Give me the Padres as a run-line favorite.

Orioles (Gibson) @ Astros (Brown) 8:10 PM ET

Game# 921-922

Play On: Over 9.0

Kyle Gibson has been erratic over his last 3 road starts while posting a large 8.82 ERA/1.90 WHIP and all 3 games went over the total. During his last 6 starts overall, Gibson has a lofty 1.50 WHIP and allowed 9 homers in 35 1/3 innings pitched. The Usually reliable Orioles bullpen has been shaky over their last 7 games with a 5.18 ERA, and they allowed 6 home runs in just 24 1/3 innings pitched. Baltimore has played 9-0 to the over in their last 9 away games.

Hunter Brown has been awful over his last 4 home starts while collecting a 8.44 ERA/1.81 WHIP. The Houston bullpen has an uninspiring staff 5.49 ERA/1.58 WHIP and allowed 4 homers over only 19 2/3 innings of work throughout their previous 7 games. Houston has played 27-14 to the over this season versus teams like Baltimore who possess a +0.5 or greater run per game differential. Give me this game to go over the total.

Angels (Sandoval) @ Rays (Bradley) 6:40 PM ET

Game# 913-914

Play On: Over 8.0

The Angles Patrick Sandoval has been in bad form over his last 3 starts with a 9.22 ERA/2.12 WHIP. The Angels have played 16-6 to the over this year as a money line underdog of +150 or greater and there was a combined average of 11.0 runs scored per game. The Rays Taj Bradley has seen 3 of his last 4 starts go over the total and had a sizable 6.52 ERA/1.55 WHIP during those outings. Give me this game to go over the total.

Phillies (Wheeler) @ Braves (Wright) 7:20 PM ET

Game# 953-954

Play On: Phillies -109

The Braves are coming off being swept in a 3-game weekend series at Miami in which they were outscored by a combined 36-13. Wright started at Philadelphia a week ago Monday and allowed 6 earned runs in just 3.0 innings pitched. The Atlanta bullpen has struggled over their previous 7 games with a staff 10.21 ERA/1.90 WHIP. The Atlanta scheduled starting pitcher Kyle Wright has been in terrible form over his last 6 starts while posting a 7.48 ERA/1.89 WHIP.

Since the start of last season, Zack Wheeler has made 4 starts at Atlanta and compiled a very good 1.95 ERA/1.80 WHIP in those outings. The Phillies bullpen has been solid over their last 7 games with a staff 2.28 ERA/1.27 WHIP. Give me the Phillies on the money line.

Rays (Civale) @ Orioles (Bradish) 7:15 PM ET

Game# 961-962

Play On: Orioles -130

Baltimore suffered their 2nd straight loss yesterday when they fell to St. Louis 1-0. However, the Orioles are 6-1 this season after being held scoreless in their previous game, and 7-0 during their last 7 immediately following 2 consecutive losses. Additionally, the Orioles haven’t lost 3 straight games since 7/1 and are 12-1 on Thursdays in 2023. Kyle Bradish is 7-0 during his last 7 team starts with an impressive 2.38 ERA/0.96 WHIP. He went 6.0 innings or more in 6 of those 7 outings and allowed 2 earned runs or fewer on each occasion. Baltimore will be facing the Rays starter Aaron Civale today. Civale has been a shade shaky over his last 4 starts while posting a lofty 5.13 ERA. Give me the Orioles on the money line.

Padres (Snell) @ Dodgers (Pepiot) 10:10 PM ET

Game# 911-912

Play On: Under 8.5

The Dodgers Ryan Pepiot has been superb in his 2 starts this season while allowing 0 earned runs, allowing 3 hits, and walking just 1 during 12.0 innings pitched. The Dodgers bullpen has been solid over their previous 7 games with a staff 2.22 ERA/0.95 WHIP. Blake Snell has amassed 6 consecutive quality starts. During his last 3, Snell has a brilliant 0.95 ERA while averaging 6.3 innings pitched per outing. During his 2 starts at Dodger Stadium since the start of last season, Snell posted a very good 2.45 ERA. It’s worth noting, the Padres have played 16-1 (94%) to the under this season in their games played on Wednesdays.

Reds (Williamson) @ Tigers (Wentz) 6:40 PM ET

Game# 977-978

Play On: Reds -112

The Tigers starting pitcher Joey Wentz is 5-12 during his team starts this season with a poor 7.17 ERA/1.74 WHIP and allowed 17 homers in 75 1/3 innings of work. 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. Williamson has also been in very good form over his last 5 starts overall with a 2.70 ERA/1.00 WHIP. The Reds didn’t play yesterday and that’s significant. Cincinnati is 7-1 on the road this season immediately following an off day. The Reds are also 9-1 in their last 10 on the road versus teams with a losing record. Give me the Reds as a money line pick.

Mariners @ Rays 6:40 PM ET

Game# 963-964

Play On: Over 8.0

Seattle won the opener of this 4-game series last night 1-0. That game produced just a combined 9 hits. Despite that anemic offensive result, today’s total opened at 7.5 and quickly moved to 8.0 and for good reason.

Seattle starter George Kirby has exhibited poor form over his last 4 starts while posting a 6.38 ERA/1.58 WHIP and allowed 4 home runs in 18 1/3 innings pitched. The Mariners bullpen has a lofty 5.09 ERA/1.57 WHIP over their previous 7 games. Seattle is averaging a sizable 1.38 homers per game when facing right-handed starting pitchers.

The Rays starter Taj Bradley has shown bad form over his last 7 starts while compiling a 7.72 ERA/1.75 WHIP. Bradley struggled in his lone start versus Seattle this season when he allowed 5 earned runs on 9 hits in just 3 1/3 innings pitched. Tampa Bay has averaged a robust 1.42 homers hit per game when facing right-handed starting pitchers this season. Additionally, Tampa has played 40-23 (63.5%) to the over this season immediately following each of their previous 2 games going under the total. Give me this game to go over the total.
