LA Angels at San Diego 6:40 ET Padres over Angels- Here we go! San Diego who plays with the passion of a chair has to respond as an American MLB team against starter from a former WWII enemy. Okay, that really has no baring on Shohei Ohtani (7-3, 3.02 ERA) and 12 strikeout per nine innings starts for the Angels. LA who appears to a real contender but once again must be playing without the ‘greatest’ player who never won anything ‘Mickey’ Trout who is begging out now that the Angels have a chance. Padres the biggest underachievers in baseball will send Joe Musgrove (6-2, 3.80) to the hill and he is 3-1 with a 2.88 ERA against LA who has lost five of six games. Take SAN DIEGO! |

St. Louis at Miami 6:10 ET Cardinals over Marlins- When St. Louis was 10-24 I was thinking now is the time to watch for a spark that would send them on a hot streak and they haven’t received it yet as they picked up just one-game in 50 games since. Hey, but beating the Yankees with a revenue pitcher on the mound might have them headed in the right direction. One who definitely is headed in the wrong direction is today's starter for the Cardinals Miles Mikolas (4-5, 4.44 ERA) allowing five or more runs in three of his last four starts. But, he is 3-1 with a 272 ERA in eight appearances against Miami. The Marlins as usual come up with arms and have another one on the hill today in Braxton Garrett (4-2, 3.53) who has a 1.98 ERA in his last nine starts covering 50 innings, but he is just 0-1 with a 7.00 ERA against he Cardinals allowing14 hits in nine innings. Red Birds are 16-5 at Miami in the last 21 meetings and 38-15 in the last 53 meetings overall. Take ST. LOUIS! |

Tampa Bay at Seattle 4:10 ET Mariners over Rays- The Mariners who were expected to contend in the AL West are still struggling to reach .500 while Tampa Bay has been hitting (literally) on all cylinders since Opening Day. Seattle is strong favorites here as Luis Castillo (5-6, 2.86 ERA) takes the hill and it is about time he received the support that he has earned. He just broke a 4-game personal losing streak where he had six starts and did not surrender three runs but once and had six quality starts. Tampa Bay has cooled off some and pitching could hamper their efforts. Tai Bradley (5-4, 4.58) has been inconsistent and gave up seven runs in four innings against Arizona last time out. Take SEATTLE! |

Minnesota at Baltimore 8:10 ET Twins over Orioles- it seems a bit odd to me that this game should open a pick-em as the Orioles seem to have such a huge advantage. To start with they are at home which means the Twins who lead the AL Central and are 2-games under .500 are 17-23 on the road. Minnesota will sent Pablo Lopez (3-5, 4.41 ERA) to the hill looking to upset Dean Kramer (8-3, 4.50) who lost his only start against the Twins surrendering five runs in four innings. I expect much of the same today. Take MINNESOTA! |

Tampa Bay at Arizona 6:40 ET Diamondbacks over Rays- Although the Rays were able to steal a win in the ninth inning yesterday but have still lost six of their last nine. Arizona who leads the NL West have recalled Brandon Pfaadt from Triple-A Reno (5-1, 3.53 ERA) in place of Merrill Kelly who has a blood clot in his lower leg. Tampa Bay will start Zack Littell (0-1, 6.57 ERA) who won’t go too long as this will be an ‘All-staff’ game. Tampa is just 3-7 on the Inter-league road and are 2-6 at Arizona. Take DIAMONDBACKS! |

Arizona will start their ace Zac Gallen (9-2, 2.84) who is facing the Rays for the first time. At 47-32 the D’Backs are plus+$1816 while the majors best at 54-27 in Plus+$1567.

Seattle at Baltimore 1:35 ET Mariners over Orioles- The odds makers must really like Seattle’s pitching over the Baltimore bats as the Mariners are once again favored on the road. George Kirby (6-6, 3.19 ERA) is getting a lot of respect and maybe the bookies are already know who the unannounced starter will be for the Orioles, and whoever he is they don’t think much of him or them. The Mariners 5-2 in their last seven games at Camden Yards including their win Friday 13-1. Look for more of that kind of stuff Sunday. Take SEATTLE! |

Seattle at Baltimore 4:10 ET Mariners over Orioles- It has taken more time than they would have liked but they are at the break even mark after putting it together the last two days defeating the Yankees 10-2 and then coming back and crushing Baltimore last night 13-1 as our Highest-Rated Megabucks winner. The Orioles with the fourth best record in the AL will send Dean Kramer (8-3, 4.56 ERA) takes the hill for Baltimore and he has no career decisions against the Mariners with a 2.81 ERA in 16 innings. Rookie right-hander Bryce Miller (5-3, 3.68) starts for the visitor and he has won his last two decisions giving up just five combined hits in those victories. Mariners are 4-1 in the last five meetings and get it done here once again...Take SEATTLE! |

Seattle at Baltimore 7:05 ET Mariners over Orioles- Seattle has yet to preform as many predicted as they are a game under .500 and a minus-872 on the year whereas Baltimore after year of cellar dwelling are making a move for the playoffs and are plus +1878 on the season.The Orioles have done it by scoring runs averaging almost a hit an inning while scoring over five runs a game. The Mariners will have to do it with pitching and with Logan Gilbert (4-4, 4.31 ERA) on the bump they have a decent chance to win in a virtual pick-em spot. Gilbert surrenders less than a hit an inning and strikes out more than one each inning. Orioles are 5-1 in last six at home while the Mariners are 4-1 in last five meetings in Baltimore.

Atlanta at Philadelphia 1:00 ET Phillies over Braves- Aaron Nola (6-5, 4.66 ERA is the Philadelphia workhorse and he does not like to leave unfinished business to others. He leads the majors in innings pitched and he has thrown 98 pitches or more in 13 of his last 14 starts. he averages a strikeout an inning and has allowed just 80 hits in his 95 inning work. I do not like when raid out affect my game schedules as Atlanta just keeps turning out young studs like the starter today Bryce Elder (4-1, 2.69) is not old enough to drink in most states and he is making his 14th of this season. Not bad so far, allowing just 69 hits in 77 innings but it will not be good enough tonight. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

Texas at Chicago White Sox 8:10 ET White Sox over Rangers- Chicago’s Michael Kopech (3-5, 3.92 ERA) has thrown 78 innings allowing just 60 hits with 89 strikeouts. This is nothing new as last season in 119 innings he surrendered only 85 hits. But with weak support he has not won since May 24 in a 6-0 shut out of Cleveland. Texas starter Martin Perez (6-3, 4.54) is on the other prospective as the Astros have giving him huge support. He allowed 90 hits in 77 innings with just 54 strikeouts. Rangers are 10-17 in the last 27 games in Chicago. Take the WHITE SOX! |

San Diego at San Francisco 9:45 ET Padres over Giants- There sure have been some disappointments this season the Mets, the Cardinals, the White Sox and the biggest of them all the San Diego Padres. The Giants pulled off some late game stuff to overcome the Padres who led 4-0. Tonight a pair of journeymen will face off as Seth Lugo (3-3, 4.10 ERA) who spent seven years as a NY Mets reliever with make his ninth start of the year for San Diego. For San Francisco it will be Anthony DeSclafani (4-6, 4.31) who has been roughed up in his three June starts giving up 12 earned runs in 12 innings. The Padres out-hit the Giants but once again they have the lowest B.A. with runners in scoring position than any other MLB club but with get it done tonight. Taker SAN DIEGO! |

Boston at Minnesota 7:40 ET Twins over Red Sox- Break-up the Red Sox! After a 3-game and double-header sweep of the Yankees, Boston must now take to the road where their fortunes different than playing at Fenway Park. The Red Sox hit 70-points higher at home than on the road and after their glorious weekend they will be caught floating on that cloud nine they talk about. Left-hander James Paxton (2-1, 3.09 ERA) gets the nod for the visitors and he has had limited action because of Tommy John surgery and he is 3-1, 3.17 ERA lifetime against the Twins. Minnesota will start Pablo Lopez (3-3, 4.27) and he is making his first career start against the Red Sox and he wins it. Take MINNESOTA! |

They are sending Yonny Chirinos (3-1, 2.35 ERA) to the mound are he has been outstanding in his limited action allowing just 24 hits in 38 innings. San Diego will send Joe Musgrove (4-2, 4.37) and his high-lite is that he has 47 strikeouts in 47 innings. The Padres are starting his hit which is long overdue. Take SAN DIEGO! |

Tampa Bay at San Diego 7:10 ET Padres over Rays- This one we should have thoughts about as the struggling Padres will send former Rays Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell (2-6, 3.78 ERA) who has been just a shell of himself since being removed in the 2020 playoffs. But, pitching against his former team will give him incentive as it was a bitter parting in 2021. Tampa Bay will start Zach Eflin (8-1, 2.97) who after seven years with the Phillies seems to have found himself this season. There is trouble in Diego as the Rays are not only 22-6 against lefties but 6-1 in the last seven meetings. As bad as the Padres appear at times they are 6-1 after a loss. Take SAN DIEGO! |

Toronto at Texas 8:05 ET Blue Jays over Rangers- The odds makers must be messing with my head a bit as they insist on making the Blue Jays favored in difficult spots and they seem to always fall short when I was sucked in. I hate betting this team but i still believe that they are winners tonight. To start with Texas has fallen back of late dropping six of their last eight games and they will be facing Toronto’s top hurler in Kevin Gausman 5-3, 3.12 ERA) who is 4-2 with a 3.88 ERA against the Rangers in nine starts. Martin Perez (6-2, 4.67) will get the nod for the Rangers and he has had the best run support of all Texas pitchers while surrendering 87 hits in just 71 innings . Take TORONTO! |

LA Angels at Texas 7:10 ET Rangers over Angels- Okay, this one should be good as MKB will showcase its biggest attraction since Babe Ruth in Shohei Othani (5-2, 3.88 ERA) who has a legitimate shot before it is over to win both the Cy Young and MVP and it could possibly happen in the same season. But, I truly do not believe it is happening this right now. He starts for the Angels tonight but his overall number from the hill are not as awesome as his a at the plate (leads majors with 21 home runs). The man that will attempted to cool Othani down is Nathan Eovaldi (9-2, 2.49) who will probably steal the CY tonight as he mows this Angels down. He has surrendered just 68 hits in 87 innings pitched. Rangers have the 2nd best record in baseball to Tampa Bay and they have scored the most runs, and more tonight off the hard throwing right-hander. Take TEXAS! |

Arizona is a team of streaks as they had their six-game run stopped last night after taking down Phillie in Game 1 of this four game series. Tonight’s starter for the Dbcks Merrill Kelly (8-3, 2.94 ERA) is looking for his eighth straight winning decision and is 1-1 with a 1.98 ERA against the Phillies. The former Whiz-Kids are streaking themselves wining eight of their last 10.

The Yanks who usually are an all-or-nothing team from the plate and Tuesday all nine starters had hits and with two home runs. The aces of the staff for both clubs will start tonight with Gerrit Cole (7-1, 2.84 ERA) on the bump for the visitor and Justin Verlander (2-3, 4.85) on the hill for the Mets. Cole is 2-2 with a 6.75 in six career starts versus the Mets while Verlander is 9-7 with a 3.44 in 23 regular season starts against the Yankees. Mets are 5-2 in last five meetings at home.

Toronto at Baltimore 7:05 ET Blue Jays over Orioles- This seems a bit strange to me as Baltimore has the second best record in the AL behind Tampa Bay of course and yet they are underdogs at home to the Blue Jays who they hold a 10-game lead over. This seems even more bogus when you realize that the Orioles have won their last four games. To point out more oddities we see Baltimore going 20-12 at home while Blue Jays are just 18-17 on the road. Blue Jays are 5-2 at Baltimore in the last seven. Take TORONTO! |

Cincinnati at St. Louis 2:15 ET Cardinals over Red(legs)- He is one of the more exciting and electric young hard throwers in the game and I am speaking of Hunter Greene (1-4, 3.92 ERA) of the former Redlegs now known as Reds. He has given up just a par hits in his last two starts and he gives up less hits than innings pitched but has issued too many free passes. St. Louis has been playing more like Dead-birds than Redbirds and will have future HOF hurler Adam Wainwright (2-1, 5.97) who in his eighteenth season is on the down side of his career (opponents are hitting .326 against him and surprisingly Cincinnati is the team that has tagged him with his most career loses as he is 11-17 with a 5.53 ERA in 40 lifetime appearances. One of those wins came this season and the Cardinals are 10-4 over the Reds in the last 14 meetings.Take ST. LOUIS! |

LA Dodgers at Philadelphia 7:05 ET Phillies over Dodgers- The problem for me here is that I really like the Dodgers Bobby Miller (2-0, 1.06 ERA) who just shut down the Yankees allowing only one hit in six innings and he received a no decision. Miller was the LA No. 1 draft pick in 2020 and that was his third MLB appearance and to date in 17 innings he has surrendered only nine hits with 16 strike outs and only four walks. Aaron Nola (5-4, 4.30) is considered as the Philadelphia (Megabucks winner yesterday 5-4) workhorse and has had mixed results having failed to post a winning season since 2019. Although his numbers do not necessarily show it but he has been throwing really well lately allowing just one hit in seven innings his last time out and he has only given up 67 hits in 82 innings on the year. The Phillies have won six straight and are 37-17 in their last 54 home game while the Dodgers are 2-6 in their last eight road games. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

The Dodgers although a comfortable 9-games over .500 just do not appear to me to be a championship team. They are 16-17 on the road while the Phils are at least 17-10 at home and will have Ranger Suarez who picked up his first victory in his last start his fifth and this will make tow-in-a-row.

Milwaukee staged a late 4-3 comeback as Tuesday’s Megabucks Brewers were a winner and they are 29-4 when scoring four runs or more and just 4-24 when they do not. The Orioles will start Dean Kramer (6-2, 4.43 ERA) who has never faced the Brewers while the home team will start former Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burnes (4-4, 3.75) who has just one career start against the Brewers a no decision.

Kyle Gibson (7-3, 3.89 ERA) has won his last three starts for the O’s but is just 1-2 with a 5.67 ERA in seven career starts against Milwaukee.

Milwaukee at Cincinnati 7:10 ET Redlegs over Brewers- The way things have been going in baseball the past five days I believe it is best to just stay with the A-Play the single strongest play I see on the MLB board today. The meeting seems to be a bit askew with the price as Milwaukee is looking for a 4-game sweep and come up an be underdog to a rookie, left-hander Andrew Abbott (0-0, 0.00) who is making his MLB debut. The Brewers will go with 14 year veteran Julio Teheran (1-1, 0.82 ERA) who make just one appearance in 2022 and only 12 stats the last three seasons. In his career Teheran is 3-4 with a 4.14 ERA in nine career starts against Cincinnati and the Brewers are 2-5 in their last seven against lefties. I know the Reds are not so good but this young hurler started in Double-A and has risen quickly through the system to the bigs. Take CINCINNATI! |

Yesterday’s Power Play win with SF should be repeated here Sunday as a Megabucks winner with San Francisco sending Anthony DeScalafani (4-4, 3.48 ERA) to the bump against Baltimore’s Tyler Wells (3-2, 3.29). Wells has been truly amazing allowing just 40 hits in 63 innings pitched all in 11 appearances giving up more than four hits only three times.

New York will send undefeated and Cy Young candidate Gerrit Cole (6-0, 2.93 ERA) to the hill and he has been racked for five earned runs in each of his last two starts but was bailed out by a load of Aaron Judge homers. The Dodgers will send rookie Michael Grove (0-1, 8.44) out against what is not such a formidable line-up even with whiff artist Stanton back. Somehow it is LOS ANGELES! |

It pains me to play against Texas as I posted them to be the surprise winner (that is one reason I hate making preseason predictions having to pay against my self.) What I see is the home club being given no advantage (by the odds-makers) here when they are a far superior club. Last season the Mariners went 14-5 against Texas including 73 in the Lone Star State.

Chicago was expected to contend for the AL Central but find themselves 11 games under .500. LA has dropped 4-of-5 after winning 4-straight at home. The White Sox have shown some life lately winning five of six against right-handed starters and will have Lance Lynn (4-5, 5.83 ERA) has won his last three starts and has picked up the pace.

New York Yankees at Seattle 9:40 ET Mariners- over Yankees- With so many weak spots in their line-up the Yankees have become virtually a ‘as Judge goes so go the Yankees’. The Pride of the Yankees (no he didn’t say that) Aaron Judge hit a pair of home runs and robbed the Mariners of another in the field yesterday will be what Mariners right-hander Logan Gilbert (3-2, 3.60 ERA) will have to contend with. New York will send out Nestor Cortes (4-2, 5.30) who although has a winning record has not be anywhere as effective as he was last season.

Seattle has won six of their last seven and the Yankees have moved to nine games over .500 after a poor start to the season. New York always seems to be in the middle of something and Domingo German (2-3, 3.75 ERA) who has had issues on and off the field is off a 10-day suspension for using too much sticky-stuff and is making his first start since May 16. The Mariners will send rookie Bryce Miller (3-1, 1.15) who has not allowed more than four hits in any of his five MLB starts. Anthony Rizzo the Yankees only .300 hitter will be out after getting hit in the head in a collision with Fernando Tatis Jr. Take SEATTLE! |

San Diego at New York Yankees 7:10 ET Padres over Yankees- I feel like there is something up with this game as in reality the Padres are favored in New York. We are talking about an underachieving San Diego then that was expected to give the West a run for their money but they have disappointed everyone with their play. The Yankees are 15-5 in their last 20 games but have dropped their last two and being an underdog at home makes no sense. The Padres will start Joe Musgrove (1-2, 6.75 ERA) who is facing the Yankees for the first time. New York will start Randy Vasquez who is making his MLB debut and was 1-5 with a 4.85 ERA in AAA ball.

Burnes has been inconsistent at best and surrendered the most hits in any start this season, last time out giving up eight hits in six innings in a 3-0 loss to St. Louis.

Tampa Bay of course has the best record in MLB and just split a four-game series against the Yankees. The Rays will send left-hander Jalen Beeks (1-2, 5.40 ERA) to the mound who has not pitched more than two innings in any of his 10 appearances. The Mets will start Justin Verlander (1-1, 2.25) who in making his home debut for New York.

Flaherty who is 3-7 with a 4.92 ERA against the Brewers is off to a horrid start to the season. Milwaukee will start Freddy Peralta (4-2, 3.32) who has had three straight quality starts but is just 3-4 with a 5.94 ERA in 13 career appearances.

You know what I am thinking...I believe St. Louis has come to life after a horrid start (10-24) but have won five of six this week. In baseball when a team is hot they are hot and it does not matter who is pitching Miles Mikolas (1-1, 5.40 ERA) or who is out. Boston knows about streaks as they just had a seven game win streak but have now lost four of five.

Houston will start Luis Garcia (0-2, 7.71) and he is 1-1 with a 4.00 ERA in three starts against the Jays. Jays are 6-2 last eight on the road and get the money here. Take TORONTO! |

In his first start against Boston he allowed three runs in five innings but had eight strikeouts while walking just one.

In seven full inning he had 12 strikeouts, allowing just three hits and no runs in a no decision appearance. Philadelphia like last season is off to a slow start and can only wait for MVP Bryce Harper to get back in the lineup. Bailey Falter (0-1, 2.61) has thrown five innings in both of his starts while surrendering 11 hits and three runs.

New York has run into problems delivering hits when needed most as they are hitting .222 with runners in scoring position. San Diego who has a much firepower at the plate are still waiting for the return of Fernando Tatis who once again is sidelined because he has been a bad boy. The Mets will start Tylor Megill (2-0, 1.64 ERA) who has had a pair of quality starts defeating Miami twice and this time he will face a real offense.

Milwaukee at Arizona 9:40 ET Brewers over Diamondbacks- I can not help myself here as once again i am going to play against my personal House Rules...but we all won last time I did it, so it is with confidence and the same applies here. Well, except for my basis toward Milwaukee starter Corbin Burnes (0-1, 9.64 ERA), after having seen him up-close I know how difficult he is to hit against. The Cy Young Award Winner has already walked five in nine+ innings and he is better than that having once started the season with 59 strikeouts before he walked a better. Arizona starter Merrill Kelly (0-1, 3.86) was roughed up by the Dodgers last time out and happens to be up against a determined Burnes. Brewers are 18-8 in the last 26 meetings and D backs are 3-8 following a win. Take MILWAUKEE |

Houston will send Hunter Brown to the hill and hr picked up two wins in 20 innings of work in 2022 but is still considered a rookie and is 0-1 with a 7.71 ERA in just 4.2 innings of work.

St. Louis at Milwaukee 8:10 ET Cardinals over Brewers- To me and many others that a close to the situation say that when Jordan Montgomery (1-0, 5.40 ERA) was traded to the Cardinals from the Yankees that it GM Brain Cashman gave away their only left-handed pitcher but one that will prove to be a contender for the Cy Young before his career is done. That broke the locker room mojo and New York still hasn’t recovered and their pitching is a mess. The Brewers will counter with Eric Lauer (1-0, 3.83) who picked up a win against the Cubs last Sunday surrendering six hits in 5+ innings. Second time out he will not be so lucky. The Red Birds are 21-8 on the road against lefties. Take ST.LOUIS! |

Let me think a minute Sonny Gray the 13-year veteran has never attained the success many believe he should have. Houston will be starting Jose Urquidy who was pounded in his first start surrendering seven hits in four innings in a no decision with two homers hit by the White Sox.

Minnesota at Miami 1:10 ET Marlins over Twins- It is difficult for me to play against any one named Jesus no matter how you pronounce it. It is even more difficult if he is a starting pitcher named Jesus Luzardo who has come into his own as a member of the Marlins. Last season just 69 hits, and in his first start against the Mets (Megabucks Winner) he surrendered just two its in six innings. Minnesota will send former Miami start pitcher Pablo Lopez who opened his season with a win over Kansas City also allowing just two hits in six innings. Home field and being familiar with their opponent a former teammate give the edge to...MIAMI! |

This of course raises the price of backing them especially on a daily basis and they started 2-2 splitting a 4-game home series with Colorado dropped the last two games. The Padres will start Ryan Weathers who is 4-7 lifetime and 0-1 against Arizona.

We have all seen how Houston’s pitching can and has dominated the last two games and totally during the regular season with MLB’s lowest team ERA. Houston does not need to hit five homers to win all it needs is for Framber Valdez (2-0, 1.42 ERA post-season) to continue to as he has all season. Philly will throw out Zack Wheeler (1-2, 2.67) and the former Met has been excellent in the post-season but the Phillies bats at .174 for the series fall short. Take HOUSTON! |

So, how does that affect this game I don’t know but I’m looking to bounce back with Matt and the Astros here. I really am an Aaron Nola fan but it look like the Stros have his number as he has surrendered 11 runs in his last two starts covering nine innings.

To compound that, a future Hall of Fame hurler Justin Verlander will get the nod for a Houston. Philadelphia will send their most consistent starter in the playoffs to the hill in Aaron Nola who was in the mound in the Phillies clinching game against the Stroes. Now, here a bit that I found unbelievable...Verlander is 0-6 with a 5.68 ERA in seven career World Series starts and he hasn’t been such a prize this post season either but getting great support with a 6.30 ERA.
