Why These Picks?
LA Dodgers v STL Cardinals: This game should see plenty of scoring, friends. Dodgers starter Clayton Kershaw (5.17 ERA) hasn’t pitched more than 5 innings in any of his outings so far this season, which means the LA bullpen will likely make an early entrance. On the other side, St. Louis will start rookie Michael McGreevy – while his season debut was a good one, the Dodgers offense is bound to give him a run for his money in an effort not to get swept (for what would be just the second time this season). Despite the Under cashing for the first two games in this series, I’m on a high-scoring affair this afternoon.
ARI Diamondbacks v CIN Reds: Zac Gallen is a little sharper on the road than his overall ERA would lead you to believe, but his last 2 outings saw final totals of 11. E.g. Gallen’s last outing saw the Atlanta Braves get a mere 1 run past him, but the final score still ended up in the double digits. On the other side, starter Brady Singer has allowed 17 earned runs over his last 5 games. I think the Over will cash here friends, and as long as the Arizona bullpen doesn't completely melt, the Diamondbacks should be able to avoid getting swept.
SEA Mariners v LA Angels: I know the Mariners will be trying like hell to avoid the sweep, so they might make some wild moves once the LA bullpen comes in. But with George Kirby (8.56 ERA) on the mound, I have to wager that the Angels will run up a decent total in the first 5 innings. I say they hold the lead by at least 1 run for the first half of the game.
