Interesting day yesterday, as the favorites dominated and the 9th inning was quite dramatic in some cases. Not sure we will see the favorites dominate today, but based on the pitching match-ups that is the way I'm leaning. Here are my plays:
Phillies RL & ML (F5) I normally don't bet the run line on underdogs, but I see a lot of value on Philly today. I'm betting bigger on the RL here at +1.5, and taking the ML on the first 5 only. Velasquez gets lots of strike outs, and hopefully keeps the rest out of the air today.
Padres ML
Giants ML, SF/COL U10.5 Since 2013, Johnny Cueto has pitched 16 innings in Coors Field and yielded 2 ER. He's off to a great start this season, so I'll take my chances on the Giants here.
Orioles ML
Angels ML
Rangers ML Rangers hit lefties well, plus Liriano's Home/Away splits are unfavorable today.
A's RL & ML
Leans: Royals - they've hit Sale in the past, plus there's no telling what the mentality of this White Sox team is after blowing a 5-1 lead Friday night and a 7-1 lead yesterday.
Nats - Strasburg is finally living up to all the hype
Yankees, Brewers, Red Sox
Good luck today everyone!
