08-18-19 | Indians -127 v. Yankees | 8-4 | Win | 100 | 5 h 49 m | Show | |
Cleveland Indians starter Mike Clevinger, has been in top form since July 1 as is evident by a perfect 6-0 record along with a stingy 2.39 ERA in 8 quality starts. He goes against a banged up Yankees team, that despite of some clutch hitting looks to be in a regression phase. Indians are 4-0 in Clevingers last 4 road starts. Meanwhile, the Yankees will go with veteran CC Sabathia who was 0-2 in July along with a bloated 7.17 ERA in four starts and is now coming of the IL and could easily show some rust. With the added pop in the Tribes batting lineup ie Yasiel Puig and Franmil Reyes and a packed righty batting order, Sabathia looks like cannon fodder. Indians are 37-17 in their last 54 games vs. a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30. Play on the Cleveland Indians to win on the ML |

Twins starter Berrios (10-6, 3.29 ERA) is 2-1 with a 5.63 ERA in three career starts against Texas. He lost his only start at Globe Life Park last season when he allowed five runs on three hits, all of them home runs, in four innings of a 7-4 loss and is fade material here in this spot according to my pitcher vs batting order power rankings. Note: BERRIOS is 1-9 against the money line vs. good power teams - averaging 1.25 or more HR's/game in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons. (Team's Record) BERRIOS is 3-10 against the money line against AL West opponents over the last 2 seasons.

The Giants will start a rookie hurler (L.Webb) in his first ever outing in the big leagues. Im betting despite of his top tier designation as a prospect ,that being here in a unfriendly environment on the road will not serve him well in his debut. Giants are 16-36 in their last 52 during game 3 of a series.Giants are 3-7 in their last 10 games following a win.

Nationals starter Anibal Sanchez (7-6, 3.75 ERA, 99 SO) is on a run mirroring the roll he went on in 2018 to help lead the Braves to a division title. Sanchez has won his last seven decisions and has a 2.93 ERA over his last 14 starts. Im betting he buoys a Nats team that has won 5 straight and 7 of their L/8 overall to another win vs Brewers here in this spot. I know his pitching opponent from the Brewers Lyles has pitched well since his trade from the Pirates , but prior to that trade , he registered a nasty 9.57 ERA in his final nine starts and could easily get nailed her vs a side that matches up well against him according to my power rankings. Nationals are 10-4 in Sanchezs last 14 starts. rewers are 0-5 in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.Nationals are 6-0 in their last 6 vs. National League Central.

Miles Mikolas (7-12, 4.13 ERA, 101 SO)After a consistent start to the second half, Mikolas regressed on Sunday against the Pirates, allowing five runs on seven hits in five innings. He struggled with command which is not a good omen as he exasperates fthe same problems he exhibited earlier this season. I know the Cards are playing well, and the pitching staff has looked strong, but ST LOUIS is just 1-13 against the money line after a 5 game span where the bullpen ERA was 2.00 or better this season. Cardinals are 0-6 in Mikolas' last 6 starts with 5 days of rest.Reds are 5-1 in their last 6 home games vs. a right-handed starter.The Cards crushed the Reds yesterday, 13-4, but in the past that kind of output has not been kind in their followup game, as they have gone 10-20 against the money line after scoring 9 runs or more over the last 2 seasons while scoring an average of just 3.5 rpg over that 30 game sample size. Meanwhile, CINCINNATI is 11-3 against the money line after allowing 8 runs or more this season with margin out put of 5.0 to 2.9. ST LOUIS is 7-18 against the money line in road games with a team slugging percentage of .430 or better on the season (NL) this season. MLB Road teams when the money line is +125 to -125 (ST LOUIS) - off an upset win vs. a division rival as an underdog of +130 or higher, with a winning record on the season playing a losing team are 8-34 L/22 seasons for a go against 81% conversion rate for bettors.

08-17-19 | Mariners +150 v. Blue Jays | 4-3 | Win | 150 | 5 h 32 m | Show | |
Jays starter Trent Thornton (4-8, 5.34 ERA, 110 SO) is coming off one of his best starts of the season, where he held the Yankees to just one run on three hits over six innings while striking out six. Thornton's biggest problem in 2019, though, has been consistency between starts. Note: The Blue Jays are 0-7 on the ML with Trent Thornton when he went six-plus innings in his last start. Meanwhile,Reggie McClain (0-0, 4.50 ERA, 5 SO)The 26-year-old rookie has risen from Class A ball to the big leagues this season and now gets his first MLB start, as the Mariners will go with a bullpen game. McClain is a converted starter who has pitched 3 games in relief since being called up and according to scouts deserves a mlb start. Blue Jays are 3-9 in Thorntons last 12 starts on astroturf. MLB Road teams when the money line is +125 to -125 (SEATTLE) - average offensive team (4.4 to 4.9 runs/game) against an average starter (ERA 4.70 to 5.70)-AL, with an on base percentage of .310 or worse over their last 20 games are 91-47 L/22 seasons for a 66% conversion rate for bettors.

Dodgers starter Kenta Maeda(8-8, 4.12 ERA, 128 SO) is coming off arguably his best start of the season, when he scattered three hits over seven scoreless innings in a win over the D-backs last Saturday. Maeda struck out six batters and didn't issue a walk for the first time in four starts. The right handed hurler is looking confident and deserves my backing here tonight on the road vs the Braves. MAEDA is 2-0 in two outings when starting against ATLANTA with an ERA of 0.68 and a WHIP of 0.825. I know Soroka the Braves rookie hurler has looked tremendous this season, but according to my power rankings the Dodgers batting order matches up well against him. ATLANTA is 9-21 against the money line in home games against NL West opponents over the last 2 seasons. Dodgers are 8-3 in the last 11 meetings in Atlanta.Dodgers are 36-17 in the last 53 meetings. MLB Road teams when the money line is +125 to -125 (LA DODGERS) - with a starting pitcher whose ERA is 3.70 to 4.20 on the season (NL) against opponent with a starting pitcher whose winning percentage is better than 70% are 44-21 L/22 seasons for a 68% conversion rate for bettors.

08-16-19 | Padres +117 v. Phillies | 4-8 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 45 m | Show | |
The Phillies will send right-hander Vince Velasquez (4-7, 4.30 ERA).Velasquez opened the season in the rotation before moving to the bullpen. He returned in June and is 2-4 with a 4.50 ERA in nine starts since then. He has pitched more than 5 2/3 innings just once in that stretch and is fade material here tonight vs the under rated San Diego Padres. Meanwhile,San Diego will send 23-year-old Chris Paddack to the hill. Paddack is 7-5 with a 3.26 ERA and owns a devastating changeup that pitchers have been laying off on lately, but that good prove fatal as strike zone efficiency could easily increase here down the stretch for Paddock. PHILADELPHIA is 3-15 against the money line vs. an NL starting pitcher whose WHIP is 1.150 or better this season and 9-28 against the money line vs. an NL starting pitcher whose WHIP is 1.250 or better this season.

Oakland has an edge here tonight with top tier starter Mike Fiers (11-3, 3.30 ERA). Fiers will take the mound Thursday riding a 17-start unbeaten streak. He has gone 9-0 with a 2.12 ERA in that run. He goes against Astros starter Aaron Sanchez (5-14, 5.60 ERA allowing 74 hits in 60.1 innings ) and never inspires me, making the As my choice in this spot play. Athletics are 7-2 in Fiers' last 9 home starts vs. a team with a winning record. Fiers, own a very solid home ERA of 2.54 this season, including a 1.66 ERA since the first of May. Astros are 2-5 in their last 7 games vs. a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. This has been a fairly grueling road trip with a couple of marathons so far for the Astros and Im sure fatigue is taking its toll in them. MLB team (HOUSTON) - average hitting team (AVG = .265 to .279) against a good starting pitcher (ERA 4.20 or less) -AL, with an on base percentage of .360 or better over their last 15 games are 21-50 L/5 seasons for a go against 71% conversion rate for bettors.

08-15-19 | Mets v. Braves -120 | 10-8 | Loss | -120 | 8 h 50 m | Show | |
Atlanta's starter Teheran has recorded a quality start in five of his past seven outings and has the ability to keep his team in all matchups especially here at home. Note: Teheran has been pitching at a high level for most of the season, but he has been especially tough on opposition batting orders in his last seven starts -- all in July and August. During that run, he is 2-1 with a 1.91 ERA.In his latest trip to the hill this past Friday, Teheran gave up one run and struck out seven in seven innings in an 8-4 vcitory at Miami., his pitching opponent, Stroman In two starts since joining the Mets from the Jays, has a bloated 6.10 ERA. He is a quality hurler, but could easily get picked apart by one of baseballs most consistent offences. I know the Mets have been hot, but I still strongly believe they are over rated, especially offensively, and are also being over valued by the public thanks to the media , who has failed to recognize that much of their current hot run has come against losing teams. Note: Mets are 8-21 in their last 29 road games vs. a team with a winning record. METS are 8-22 against the money line as a road underdog of +100 to +150 this season. The Mets are 0-21 on the ML as a dog after they had 12+ hits and were not a 150-plus dog and it is not a series opener. Mets are 1-6 in the last 7 meetings in Atlanta.

Aaron Civale(1-1, 0.75 ERA, 13 SO)will make back-to-back starts for the first time in his Major League career. He allowed one run on three hits in six innings against the Rangers on Monday. Civale threw six scoreless innings in a June 22 start in his only other big league trip to the hill and gets my support here today vs the host Twins. Meanwhile, Twins stater Jose Berrios(10-6, 3.24 ERA, 140 SO)Berrios was crushed for a first-pitch homer by Ronald Acuna Jr. on Tuesday, setting the tone for one an ugly outing in which he allowed a career-high nine earned runs and a season-high four walks in 5 2/3 frames. There were signs of control issues to which could easily signify arm fatigue here late in the season, which could easily continue to translate in excessive offensive production vs opposition batting orders and the Tribe this Sunday.

There is a battle cry being put out by the Manager of the Nats before this game vs the Mets as a post season spot is being battled for "We're fighting to get in the playoffs, they're fighting to get in the playoffs," Martinez said. "I believe in those boys in that clubhouse. People kicked us, we were down and you saw what they can do. Not by any means are we down." END QUOTE: The Mets, who were tied for 13th place in the NL and eight games out of the second wild card on July 24, have won 15 of their last 16 games to move within a half-game of the Nationals and Milwaukee Brewers, who are tied for the two wild-card spots and are now huge public favs, giving us value with a Nationals team that is 5-0 on the ML in the last game of a series as a dog off a game as a dog when they are off a loss in which they held the lead. Im betting the Nats do not get swept today, and do enough damage vs DeGrom to get a win here as hefty underdogs. Nationals are 8-3 in their last 11 during game 3 of a series.Nationals are 22-9 in their last 31 games after losing the first 2 games of a series.

Max Fried(12-4, 4.07 ERA, 112 SO) recorded a strike with nearly 70 percent of the 76 pitches he threw over six strong innings against the Reds on Thursday. His curveball induced a 33.3 percent (7 of 21) swing-and-miss rate during this rain-shortened complete game effort and remains a solid hurler to back for now in this current winning form. Meanwhile,Martin Perez( (8-4, 4.58 ERA, 100 SO) struggled with the long ball in his last start, when he matched a season high with three homers allowed for five runs in five innings.

Asher Wojciechowski( 1-3, 3.91 ERA, 31 SO) is coming off the best start of his career. The 30-year-old righty threw 7 1/3 scoreless innings vs. Boston on Sunday, striking out 10 and taking a no-hitter into the seventh. His innings pitched and strikeouts were career highs and has momentum coming into this tilt and gets backing .

Jose Urquidy (1-0, 5.54 ERA, 17 SO ) will make his fourth career start .He earned his first win on Saturday vs. the Rangers, when he allowed one run in seven innings. He's the second Astros pitcher to strike out at least nine with no walks within his first three games. This kids the real deal. Meanwhile, Jack Flaherty the Cards starter despite of pitching decently of late has not garnered a win since May 14 against the Braves and is fade material vs the Astros tonight. He is also just 1-2 with a 5.59 ERA over seven career interleague starts, including a 7.63 ERA over three appearances against the American League this season.Note: The Cardinals are 3-15 L/18 on the ML when Jack Flaherty starts and he threw more strike out than hits allowed in his last start. I know the Cards have been hot, but playing against upper tier competition seems to ignite the Astros to playing their best ball.

When I first looked at this game, I was not sold on the Cubs with Hendricks on the hill as he has struggled a bit on the road this season. But after really running the numbers, my projections and power rankings say we do have some value here with the Cubbies vs the Brewers. Note: Hendricks despite of being winless in July still garnered a 3.60 ERA. In 20 career starts against Milwaukee, Hendricks is 8-6 with a 3.22 ERA. Meanwhile the Brewers starter Gio Gonzalez will make his second start since a stint on the injured list for left shoulder inflammation and in his first start after the injury threw just 74 pitches, and could easily experience rust.

Porcello's last start against the Yankees was a rough outing on June 29 in London, when he retired just one batter and gave up six runs and Im betting against him and home side today vs the explosive Yankees.

Diamondbacks RH Zack Greinke (8-3, 3.08 ERA) vs. Giants LH Drew Pomeranz (2-8, 6.79) Greinke, the Dbacks starter will be facing the Giants for the first time this season. Right now the veteran righty is in top form as is evident by a career-best 6.2 strikeout-to-walk ratio. The right-hander has allowed nine runs over his last two starts (13 innings), and 5-0 with a 1.37 ERA in five career Oracle Park starts. Meanwhile, his pitching opponent Pomeranz is 0-4 with an 8.53 ERA in 10 career appearances (seven starts) versus Arizona , including 0-1 with an 8.59 mark in two starts this season and is fade material in this spot. GREINKE is 16-3 against the money line vs. NL teams scoring 4 or less runs/game on the season over the last 2 seasons.

Dodgers LH Clayton Kershaw (7-1, 3.07 ERA) vs. Rockies RH Jon Gray (8-5, 3.92) There is a very high total attached to this game here in launching pad known as Coors Field. But its interesting to note that Kershaw’s starts with an over/under of 10 or higher have been in away games , and in those tilts the Dodgers are just 1-4 , losing by 2.6 runs per game. His last two such event back in 2008 and 2009 here at Coors Field saw him get beaten around losing 10-1 and 10-4 and Im betting on a rinse and repeat situation here, as Kershaw enters this game a little wobbly after getting roughed up in Chase Field last time out . Meanwhile, the Rockies starting ace Jon Gray has steadily has been performing more and more like the staff ace they believe he can be. He's already two-thirds of the way (8) toward matching his personal standard for victories, which he established last year by winning 12 games and gets my support here today on a value home MLine. Dodgers are 1-5 in their last 6 road games vs. a right-handed starter.

The two pitchers faced off May 31 in Pittsburgh, a game the Pirates won 9-4. Brewers starter Chacin hasn't cleared the fifth inning in either of his starts since a stint on the injured list for back tightness, continuing what has been a excruciatingly disappointing season and is fade material here vs what is currently a hot hitting Pirates team off a 10-0 win vs the Houston Astros last time out and winners of 7 of their L/8 overall.

I know the Detroit Tigers have been tanking and their in a horrendous slump, so forgive me for my never ending and insidious search for value lines with bad teams. Norris the Tigers hurler has been pitching well of late, 25ks in his L/29 innings of work and offers up very good contrarian value here as a AL home team in interleague action. Note: Detroit is 7-1 L/8 vs the Nationals in Comerica Park. MLB Road favorites with a money line of -125 to -175 (WASHINGTON) - after 3 straight games where they committed no errors, with a struggling bullpen whose ERA is over 8.00 the last 5 games are 25-42 L/22 seasons for a 63% go against conversion rate for bettors.

DANNY DUFFY (L) vs. SEAN REID-FOLEY (R) This young Jays offence has really been generating alot of offence of late (6.3 rpg on a .298 BA in 7 games) and have looked good overall as is evident by winning two of three from the Boston Red Sox before dropping three close games in New York, including an 8-7 loss Wednesday. Im betting the Jays have an edge here today vs a KC team that iss ending Danny Duffy to the hill.Duffy is 2-3 with a 4.86 ERA in seven career appearances against the Blue Jays.

The Giants are 5-1 in Beedes L/5 starts and they have won each of his last three outings and he gets my support here again. Meanwhile, the Dbacks starter Young was the D-backs’ second-round pick in the 2015 MLB Draft, and he will be making his Major League debut. The lefty went 2-3 with a 5.79 ERA in his eight starts for Triple-A Reno. Im betting hes not quite ready for the bigs, but the DBacks management figured the light hitting Giants would be a good opportunity to show his stuff at the MLB level. With that said, I still expect SFs batting order to do some damage here and get the win. Diamondbacks are 4-12 in their last 16 vs. National League West.Diamondbacks are 2-7 in their last 9 games vs. a right-handed starter.RIZONA is 14-25 against the money line against division opponents this season.

In his career he owns a 5.61 ERA in 15 starts. Even though the Tigers are struggling I like their chances here today vs a hurler that is downtrending.

The Rays won 10 of Morton's first 14 starts, during which he went 8-0 with a 2.10 ERA. But Tampa Bay has lost each of his last two starts, butIm betting on a bounce bak effort from a very under rated hurler.Morton, the American League ERA leader at 2.31, is throwing his curve more than any other pitch and holding opponents to a .118 batting average with it. Minnesota is an explosive team that can hit top tier fire ballers, but they have shown some struggles against hurlers like Morton. I know the Rays have struggled of late, and that they will go against a tough pitcher in Odoirizzi but according to my power rankings matchup well here from a value perspective on this line. Rays are 5-0 in Mortons last 5 starts vs. American League Central.Rays are 7-2 in Mortons last 9 road starts.

Note" Gallen at Triple-A New Orleans, garnered a powerful 9-1 record and 1.77 ERA in 14 starts before he was promoted .Meanwhile, Corbin had a strong effort last time out, but previous to that has been beaten up on in his previous three trips to hilll, giving up 20 runs and 22 hits over 12 2/3 innings of sub par work, and could easily return to those negative output vs a up trending Miami team that is very under valued on this this line.Nationals are 0-4 in Corbins last 4 road starts.

Miley the Astros start has allowed three or fewer runs in 14 of his 15 starts this year and must not be underestimated in his ability to give the Astros a quality start here vs the Yankees tonight. I know Tanaka the Yankees starter is off a brilliant effort, but in the past this has not been a recipe for success as his team is just is 1-6 against the money line after giving up 1 or less earned runs last outing this season. (Team's Record) Tanaka is also just 0-2 with a 7.36 ERA in six career starts against Houston. I know both these teams are operating at the proverbial opposite end of the performance spectrum, with the Astros on a 6 game losing streak and the Yanks on 7 game win streak. However, it must be noted that despite of recent woes the Astros are still hitting well, just not getting runners home that are in scoring position, something that wont last.

He was a bit wild early and threw 102 pitches, but he found the feel of his out pitch and recorded seven strikeouts on sliders and now looks to have momentum and strength to go deeper here and produce a quality start for the Brewers. Meanwhile, Red Starter Castillo's worst start of the season happened at Miller Park on May 22 and the lasting impression on that could be still riding in the back of his mind entering this tilt. In that game he only 2 2/3 innings during an 11-9 Reds loss where he earned a no-decison, the ace gave up four runs on five hits (including two homers) with three walks.Castillo is 0-1 with a 4.66 ERA in two starts this season against the division rivals and 2-2 with a 3.50 ERA in six career starts against them overall. I know these teams are operating at the proverbial opposite end of the performance spectrum at the moment with the Reds on a 6 game winning streak and the Brewers on a 5 game losing streak, but all good and bad runs must eventually come to end, and now today Im betting on those recent biases being busted in this spot play.

Angels RH Griffin Canning (2-3, 3.93 ERA) vs. Cardinals RH Michael Wacha (4-3, 6.00) I not always a big proponent of backing rookie hurlers like Canning, but there are occasions where I see enough value on the line to get down on an inexperienced hurler. Note: Canning has owned left-handed hitters and held them to a .163 average and did well in his only career interleague start, holding the Los Angeles Dodgers to three runs over six innings in a no-decision on June 10. Cards pitcher Wacha has made two starts since returning from a bullpen , and the results were quite contrasting. After throwing six shutout innings against Miami, Wacha was knocked for six runs (five earned) in a four-inning start versus the Mets last week and against a hard hitting Halos team very much looks like fade material. After all Wacha went to the bullpen for a reason that is not positive in the first place, and just does not seem right at the moment. The right hander has garnered a 8.23 ERA in 4 home starts. WACHA is 2-8 against the money line in home games in an inter-league game in his career.
