Why These Picks?
MIA Marlins v TB Rays: A big plus money pick, but I stand by it. The Marlins are fresh off of getting swept by the worst team in baseball (at home!) – while the Rays have quietly won 6 of their last 8 outings. To be fair, Miami starter Edward Cabrera (4.14 ERA) has had some solid outings, but I just don’t think the Marlins offense will step up to support him. To boot, Rays starter Zack Littell (3.86 ERA) is 5-0 in his last 5 outings. Give me Tampa Bay to win by at least 2.
ARI Diamondbacks v CIN Reds: It’s tough to say “no” to an Over with Eduardo Rodriguez (7.05 ERA) on the mound for the Diamondbacks, friends. Rodriguez’s last 5 straight outings have resulted in game totals of at least 11 runs (4 out of 5 went well beyond this number…) In addition, the Reds have put 15 runs on the board in just their last 3 games, while the Diamondbacks have bagged 21 in their last 3. Between the Cincinnati & Arizona offenses, I think the Over will cash here pretty easily. My money’s on a high-scoring affair this evening.
NY Mets v COL Rockies: The pitching matchup here is just far too one-sided. Mets starter Kodai Senga comes into this game with an impressive 1.60 ERA, while Rockies pitcher Antonio Senzatela sits at a 7.14 ERA with a mere 1 win and 10 logged losses (oof). I fully expect New York to cash the Over on their Team Total here.
LA Dodgers v STL Cardinals: Dangerous as the Dodgers offense can be, the Cardinals come into this game with a massive edge named Sonny Gray (3.65 ERA). Gray has a formidable 6 wins logged with a single loss, and to be frank, even in the one game over the past where he allowed a staggering 7 earned runs, the Cardinals still claimed victory (14-7 over Philadelphia). I’m on St. Louis to bag a win at home tonight.
