4* Money Maker MIAMI MARLINS

4* Money Maker OAKLAND A's 

Taking the ROCKIES. Coming back again on a team we had last night. Will grab Colorado again. Chacin has given crooked numbers in all 6 starts and I expect that to continue tonight. 23 innings with 13 walks and 23 hits. That helps our cause. Marquez has been sharp or better in all but 1 start. Kid is dealing right now. 4* Money Maker COLORADO ROCKIES 

Taking SAN DIEGO. Like this kid Paddack for the Padres. 5 starts and just 5 runs in his 27 innings pitched. That's a .67 WHIP and 1.67 ERA my friends. Lost with SD last night, but will come back here with this pitching edge. What Teheran is showing up? I remember when this guy had unbelievable home numbers. Then, he was great on the road. What is 100% clear so far is that he has been uneven at best this season. 33 hits in 31.2 innings and 17 walks. His 2 best starts this year have been at home with wins over the Cubs and Mets allowing 2 runs in 11 innings on 12 hits and 5 walks, 13Ks in those 2 games helped. Still think the youngster is the way to go tonight. Seems like Teheran (28) has been around forever doesn't it? 4* Money Maker SD PADRES 

Taking the REDS. Jason Vargas. Really? Castillo with a .95 WHIP through his first 6 starts while Vargas counters with his 7+ ERA, 20 hits and 9 walks in 15 innings. Plenty of scoring opportunities tonight for Cincy. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS 

Taking the ROCKIES. Colorado getting hot winning 8 of 10. Brewers limping in dropping 7 of 10. Davies has been Milwaukee's most reliable start on the young season. He is sporting a 6+ ERA in 2 starts vs Colorado. Yelich could be out tonight which would help the cause. A little lower back problems as he left the last game. The play of both teams though has me on the small road dog. 4* Money Maker COLORADO ROCKIES 

Taking SAN DIEGO. I do like this young Braves team. But, being young does have some drawbacks. Like how is Soroka going to respond after his longest pitch count of his young career? 100 pitches seems to have found itself as when the bullpen come in. He has had previous shoulder problems. So getting a nice number, I will grab the dogs here. Margevicius has a respectable 1.08 WHIP on the year. He has been good in his 2 road starts allowing 2 runs on 6 hits in 11 innings. That's a 1.64 ERA - .154 BAA and .64 in limited innings. I'll take it though. 4* Money Maker SAN DIEGO PADRES 

Taking SEATTLE. Rangers ending a 5 game slide as of this writing erupting for an 11-1 game here in the ninth. I think they hold on. That being said, this team has big problems. The staff is a hot mess. Lynn the best guy and he is sporting a mid 6 ERA. He beat Seattle last week which means they will get the best of him today. Especially off getting pounded last night. Rangers bullpen. They should just have a jet on stand-by as they shuttle guys back and forth to the minors. That is what happens when you starters last about 4 innings and you are in the bullpen having guys throw 40-50-60 pitches a night. 4* Money Maker SEATTLE MARINERS 

Taking the YANKEES and will also be on the UNDER in this game. Have to like they way both guys are pitching for the under here. But German as a side looks like a nice bet. I know you hear me talk about too good to be true lines. And although this is a low number, it's about where it should be. Rodriguez has been respectable in his outings. German though has been just downright nasty in his 4 starts. 28K in 25+ innings, just 13 hits. A .143 BAA and .82 WHIP. Again, on the UNDER also with a couple solid youngsters on the hill. Just think the Yanks find a way to win the side for us. 4* Money Maker NY YANKEES

Taking TAMPA. Can't back Sale at any price right now. Will grab Glasnow as a decent dog. 4-0 in 5 starts, a .92 WHIP. 2-0 on the road with 5 hits allowed in 12 innings. No runs, 2 walks and 17Ks - 4* Money Maker TB RAYS 

Taking the REDS. Like this kid Mahle. Hudson numbers catching up to him as he was ready for regression. Cincy hurt the bankroll for us early in the month, but will back them as a small dog again today. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS 

Taking the GIANTS. Will grab MadBum as a small home dog. Big Maple Paxton solid in his last 2 starts. But I can't trust this Yankees line up to put up runs vs a good pitcher. Giants offense not the 27 Yankees by any stretch - Home dog gets the nod though. 4* Money Maker SF GIANTS 

Taking the PIRATES. I know that the Dodgers are clearly 'better' and Ryu has nice home splits. But I am thinking Archer at this price still represents some value. 4* Money Maker PITT PIRATES 

Taking the BREWERS. I like Degrom. But we saw last year - just because you give up 0 runs or 1 run, heck 2 runs, doesn't mean you are winning games. Give me the Brewers at this price. They have plenty of guys who can hit the ball. Plus, the whole mystery injury thing - MRI -X-rays. Mets notorious for not catching or reporting injuries. 4* Money Maker MILWAUKEE BREWERS 

Taking the ROCKIES tonight. Alright guys, sorry for the late MLB. If you watch the free pick videos, you know this week I was down in AC. Truck caught a rock and a tiny corner knick turned into a spidering crack that engulfed the entire passenger side of the windshield. 4 hours later and we have a new front window. But still need to go get camera calibrated! So- Colorado. Come in winners of 8 of 10. They have 6 straight in Atlanta. In fact, how about 23-9 last 32 vs the Braves. I know Fried has looked sharp, but it is tough to fade a team that is finally hitting and playing well right now. 4* Money Maker COLORADO ROCKIES 

Taking the big dog MARLINS. Look. As good as Nola is, he is struggling right now. Think of how bad the Marlins have been recently - Yet, in 10 starts, Nola 3-4 with 3.71 ERA vs Miami. Caleb Smith is a tough lefty quietly off to a very nice start. Have to grab the big value here. 4* Money Maker MIAMI MARLINS 

Taking the REDS. Teheran has been roughed up on the road in his 3 starts this season. Castiillo has been very sharp. Almost want to go RL for +140, but we need to start getting some Ws in the column. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS 

4* Money Maker LA DODGERS

4* Money Maker LA ANGELS 

4* Money Maker SF GIANTS 

4* Money Maker MILWAUKEE BREWERS 

4* Money Maker OAKLAND A's 

4* Money Maker MINNESOTA TWINS 

4* Money Maker TB RAYS

-- make-up from Saturday-- Taking the TIGERS. Think Norris gets it done here. Had CWS last night on the RL, Detroit gets it done this afternoon. 4* Money Maker DETROIT TIGERS

Taking the ANGELS. But not totally in love with Cahill so we will also be on the OVER in this game. Not sure we have seen either of these 'real' teams. Very streaky to say the least. 4* Money Maker ANGELS + OVER 

Taking the PADRES. I know Castillo numbers this year look impressive. But he has been anything but vs SD. A 5.17 ERA in 3 starts and a 0-2 record. 4* Money Maker SD PADRES 

Taking OAKLAND. Nearly went RL +135 and not sure why I am holding back. Well, truth be told Shoemaker has been pretty solid out of the gate. And regression will come at sometime, this park is pretty good for pitchers. Which is why we are on Fiers as his home splits are good. And the icing on the cake, Kris Davis. Guy is an absolute beast! But you should have figured that over the last couple years with his power. A's a nice young team that will make us some coin this year. 4* Money Maker OAKLAND A's 

Taking the GIANTS. Line has come down a bit, but still value on the dog. 4* Money Maker SF GIANTS 

Taking the BREWERS here and will also be on the OVER. 4* Money Maker BREWERS + Over

Taking the MARLINS. Plenty of people will look at this and be like, free money on the Nats! Why is this line so low? Easy money Washington. Well. Seeing this number come down and flip towards Miami is all I need to see. Caleb Smith has been sharp out of the gate and that helps the cause. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS 

Taking the ROYALS. Had the over last night and the Yanks bats couldn't get it done for us. I will be looking at the over again as KC is pretty good putting up crooked numbers. You know my feelings on CC. I have been fading him with mixed results the last couple years. This line down a bit since opening, but still value on the dogs. 4* Money Maker KC ROYALS 

Taking OAKLAND. Small fave or very small dog over Houston who has won 10 straight. Yeah, Easy money if you bet the Astros right! 4* Money Maker OAKLAND A's 

Taking the GIANTS. Again, an ugly dog. Why has this line dropped? Aren't the Nats suppose to be great? No way they lose 2 in a row to the lowly Giants right? This isn't Stras, Mad Max or Corbin. This is Hell-Boy Hellickson. I'll grab Sammy as a dog. 4* Money Maker SF GIANTS 

Taking the TIGERS. Going ugly here. Going to be an ugly Wednesday with some of our MLB dogs today. Lines all look a little to easy if you are grabbing faves daily. 4* Money Maker DETROIT TIGERS 

Taking the REDS, again. I must like being abused I have backed these guys several times already this year with losing results. But it is a long season and I am sticking to my numbers. We'll grab Gray and Cincy as a nice road dog. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS 

Taking the METS today. I tend to like to back a team that is off a mauling. You lose by 10+ runs in baseball, you are getting your butt whipped. Matz was just as terrible in his last start issuing 7 walks. Again, big bounce-back for both team and player this afternoon. 4* Money Maker NY METS

Taking the REDS. I know Mahle is pitching over his head a bit, but I can't walk away from this price. Not a fan of Maeda. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS

Taking SAN DIEGO. So this is really the peak of where I am laying with a favorite. And to be honest, I did write up first on taking SD Run Line +135. But as I also like the under, I am more confident in a low scoring affair than SD winning 6-0. So we lost fading the Rockies yesterday, but make no mistake, this team is struggling. 4* Money Maker SD PADRES +Under 7

4* Money Maker SEATTLE MARINERS 

4* Money Maker MILWAUKEE BREWERS

Taking SF. Now 8 straight losses for the Rox, and now a fave in half those games. 2 wins over Tampa and then they pulled out a 1-0 win at home with Marquez on the hill. Team is struggling right now. 4* Money Maker SF GIANTS

Taking the REDS. Anytime I can get plus money fading Wainwright count me in. I am not going to go over his numbers again. I did that in the last write up when we faded him. Roark is a solid pitcher. I mentioned his numbers before also career wise. Give me the small home dogs. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS 

Taking the ORIOLES. One, you know that I have zero love for Porcello. So I don't care how bad the Orioles are, he shouldn't be laying 2-1. Two, the O's have actually put up some runs. Finally. Is Boston the team you really want to be laying big numbers with right now? I thought the bullpen was going to be average at best, but the starters would be much better. So far both have sprung early leaks. 4* Money Maker BALTIMORE ORIOLES 

Taking the WHITE SOX. Was going to take them last night and as of this writing, kicking myself for not backing them. Not sure why I was so hesitant. There was no Yankee starter listed when I was doing the write ups. Shouldn't have mattered. This team is banged up all over the place. Plus, and I think I was in the minority here, I am not a fan of the pitching from Game 1. To rely on Sevie (injuried) Happ (old) CC (Old and injured) Tanaka (1 throw away from elbow breaking or whatever tear he had), not sure why everyone was so high. Again, relying on youngsters to perform as good or better than last year. Andujar (out) Torres. Bird and Voight hitting under .200. No Sanchez. I can go on on. Let's get to CC fresh of the DL. I will be fading him all year. Especially laying big numbers at home. 4* Money Maker CHICAGO WHITE SOX 

Taking the ASTROS. I can't take away from the Mariners great start. 13-2 is nothing to sneer at. You can only beat who is front of you. But the schedule has been kind. The A's aren't suppose to be that good this year. Then you have the rebuilding White Sox and Royals. The Angels. You beat the Red Sox who appear lost lately. Now the bar is raised. Here come the Astros. Obviously I am not the only one not sold on Seattle as even with their impressive record and 6 straight wins, they are a a home dog tonight. Leblanc has a 6.47 ERA last year vs the 'Stros in 6 starts.  4* Money Maker HOUSTON ASTROS 

Taking the PADRES. Have been on these guys a couple times already. I will say it again. The culture is changing in SD. They get some wins and that is contagious. This kid Paddack has been sharp out of the gate. 4* Money Maker SD PADRES 

Taking the METS.  Just think we have the better starter, and right now the better team. Mets playing well overall and I think they break through vs Wright tonight. 4* Money Maker NY METS 

Taking the PIRATES. Can't trust the Cubs right now. And Quintana was nothing special in his lone start this season. 4* Money Maker PITT PIRATES

Taking the BLUE JAYS. Had them over Sale, will take them over Eovaldi. Like the Yanks earlier this year, how can you lay these numbers with a team that isn't winning? Sanchez solid so far in his 2 starts with 11 innings and 8 hits allowed. 12 hits and 6 walks in 10 innings won't help Eovaldi. Again, We hit the Jays at +200 the other day. This is a free money role against a struggling team that everyone thinks is due to win. 4* Money Maker TORONTO BLUE JAYS 

Taking the NATS and backing Strasburg here. Look - I do like Nola. Think the kid has a shot at a Top 3 Cy Young finish. I know exactly what I will be getting from Strasburg though. One, the dude is 17-4 in his last 21 starts vs the Phillies, 7-1 last 8 on the road. Nola 2-6 in his last 8 home starts vs Washington and 5-11 overall vs Nats. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS 

I'll grab the BLUE JAYS as big dogs. One. How can you lay this with Sale? His velocity is down to 89mph right now. Sox just have a pile of problems and laying 200 because you think they are 'due' for a win isn't a good reason to back them. Matt Shoemaker though - raise your hand if you saw back to back 7 innings 2 hits game with 15Ks coming in his first two starts. I'll ride the hot arm right now. 4* Money Maker TORONTO BLUE JAYS 

Again, on the PADRES. You know I am riding these guys, but also look who is across the diamond. Adam Wainwright. Guy is was past his prime. He was debating hanging up the glove. This is his retirement tour. Doubt the fans will be happy. 4* Money Maker SAN DIEGO PADRES 

Taking the WHITE SOX. Gonna grab Nova here. If there is one kind of pitcher I do not like to back, it's the soft throwing kind a guy Wade LeBlanc is. Guys who pitch to contact, especially against a young team like the Sox whose hitters want to swing at anything, fuhgetaboutit. 4* Money Maker WHITE SOX 

Taking the NATS. Won't have to worry about the Bullpen as I think Mad Max goes the distance today. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS 

Taking the BLUE JAYS. So you have read already my feelings on this Cleveland team. I will grab Stroman as a nice little dog today. Jays a feisty team - and although I think they won't be a good club, they can steal one from a banged up Indians team. 4* Money Maker TORONTO BLUE JAYS

Taking the ORIOLES, again. Killing me with this freaking bullpen. Not trusting German with this number. O's been in every game.  Hess was very sharp in his first outing, German, a bit wild. 4* Money Maker BALTIMORE ORIOLES

Taking the TWINS. You know I am high on these guys, and Berrios in general. 4* Money Maker MINNESOTA TWINS

Taking ARIZONA. Coming right back on the DBacks. Boston can't get out of their own way right now. I could never lay money with any team playing like this right now. Luke Weaver another youngster we are backing on the day. 4* Money Maker ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS 

Taking the ORIOLES. Look. I will be fading NYY until I see these guys run off at least 3 or 4 in a row. I think the starting pitching is average at best. Forget Elsbury who has been out since about 2 months into his monster contract (I call him Gardybury since he and Gardy are the same guy) - Forget Didi. You now have lost Andujar who people, I included expected another step forward. Shocked that Tulo is hurt. Stanton banged up. Hicks out. Sanchez was brutal last year. If he starts slow I think he is done for the year. Zero confidence in himself. I like Gleybar and the DJ signing was huge and is even larger than life now. I think Wade will be a solid contributor. But, now with Wade and Frazier, 2 youngsters looking to break out. Coupled with Voit's and Bird's slow starts. I think you are looking at a long April for the Yanks. Give me the O's who everyone thinks won't win 50. These guys are pros and hear and read that. They have something to prove. 4* Money Maker BALTIMORE ORIOLES 

Taking SAN DIEGO. Cashed with them yesterday, will come back again today. Short number for sure. Wacha I thought would be a tad higher. But this kid Paddack looked pretty good in his first start retiring the first 10 Giants he faced. 7ks 2 hits in 5 innings, 79 pitches. Not that I like tossing out Spring training numbers. But 31Ks in 20+ innings isn't too shabby. This is one of those, look to good to be true numbers like Seattle yesterday. I'm taking the upstart Padres who I have said since Opening Day they are pumped for the new look of their franchise. 4* Money Maker SD PADRES 

Taking the WHITE SOX. Kicking myself for not taking them yesterday. But Seattle has just been on fire. And really, after the Mariners came all the back I thought they were going to pull it out. What I like here though is Giolito. The kid looked really good vs KC in his first start carrying a no hitter into the 7th. 4* Money Maker CHICAGO WHITE SOX

Taking the NATIONALS. Like Corbin. Think this guy is going to have a nice year for Washington. Mets off to a nice start. Corbin though with success last year here with a 2.03 ERA and the Mets hitting just .178 against him. Matz has a 5.88 career ERA vs Nats while Corbin was sharp last week giving up 2 runs in 6 innings. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS 

Taking the RANGERS. Who the heck is Felix Pena? LAA spending 400 mill on Trout. Can you have tried offering 330 and get a stud SP please! This kid, not even a kid at 29. A reliever in Chicago for 2 years. Gets to start last year and does nothing special. I'll grab Lance Lynn who has a solid track record as a MLB pitcher. Texas can hit. As of this writing they are heading to first pitch vs Matt Harvey. But they have beaten Cole, Verlander, Hamels and Darvish. They can put up some runs. We'll grab them as small dogs tonight. 4* Money Maker TEXAS RANGERS 

Taking the BREWERS. I like Milwaukee. We made a killing on them last year. And this year, well, let's just say I learned my lesson going against them. 1-5! Now, that could easily be flipped with their 9th inning comeback wins - but, a good team finds ways to win. Now we have the Cubs who I am down on. I am a bit worried though with this number. Like the Reds series, these are low lines. In fact, this dropped a bit already. Maybe people think the Cubs are due for a win and Milwaukee will cool off. I for one, will be riding the hot team right now. 4* Money Maker MILWAUKEE BREWERS

Taking OAKLAND. Had these guys a couple times already, will grab them as a nice dog. Look. Astros were money burners at home last year. Yes, they are arguably the best team in MLB. I am not saying they are very talented. But they aren't playing well right now. 4* Money Maker OAKLAND A's 

Taking ARIZONA. There is zero chance that I can get on a Red Sox bus as any kind of favorite. I get the lineup is strong. But right now, the pitching staff is an absolute wreck. And as for Porcello, I think he is more 2015 9-15 and 2017 11-17 than 2016 22-4 and 2018 17-7. His up down trend the last 4 years suggest he is ready for a season long regression. 4 walks 6 hits in 2+ innings last start. I know DBacks have their own pitching woes, but I will glad Godley as a small home pup tonight. 4* Money Maker ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS

Taking the PADRES. Not taking too much stock in both pitchers first outing. Our guy looked better, but it's one game. For me, the price is right. We had SD a couple times already this year. Lost a couple times with STL as the bullpen failed us multiple times. This Padres team is excited with their new players. Machado and Tatis bring energy to the entire lineup. STL will be where they will come September. But today, I think the Padres are worthy at this price. 4* Money Maker SAN DIEGO PADRES 

Taking SEATTLE. Like the Brewers, we have to ride the hot team right now. The ' line looking too low' has destroyed me the last couple days. I guess this is how they rope in the March Madness bettors by thinking taking hot teams is easy money. Well, I will bite today. One reason I don't mind though is the hitting. Man, Seattle raking right now. Think they have 10 guys who have hit homers already this year - Ok, had to look 9.. 9 guys for 17 HRs. Twins and Angels have hit 1 a piece as I write this at 920pm EST Thursday night. I like the Sox. You may have saw my write up on them against the Indians. I know the home opener is special. Maybe tomorrow they will be a play. But right now, I am riding a team that is really playing well right now. 4* Money Maker SEATTLE MARINERS 

Taking the BLUE JAYS. Well, I faded Toronto yesterday and it did not pay off. I said in my Under write up for the Indians that I really wanted to pull the trigger on the White Sox. Well, that was a costly mistake. Again. I have said it before when going against the Tribe. This team is missing some pieces right now and having trouble scoring runs. If we get +150 every game we will gladly take the dogs. 4* Money Maker TORONTO BLUE JAYS 

Taking BALTIMORE. Will again back the O's and continue to fade the Yanks. I won't make the same mistake as last weekend and miss a game in this series. If we are getting big numbers like this, we have to take the Orioles. Yanks a banged up bunch right now. 4* Money Maker BALTIMORE ORIOLES 

Taking the ORIOLES. We know that Baltimore won't keep this up. But for now, we will ride them. Toronto was going to be bad this year - maybe not Orioles bad, but bad. They are trading guy and bringing up top prospects now. Not a chance they should be favored at these kind of numbers right now. 4* Money Maker BALTIMORE ORIOLES 

Taking the TIGERS. Man. missed out last night. Like the Orioles where we take 2 of 3 and go 1-1 instead of 2-1. We lost the opener of this series. I wanted to fade NYY right out of the gate in every home game as I knew they would be huge faves. And I backed off. Terrible on my part. The Yanks starters are average at best right now. The lineup is missing pieces. They were already going to count on young guys to be as good or better than last year. Without Didi, now Stanton and Andujar. Judge is special. But Sanchez was brutal last year. Torres is still young. Tulo? Hicks and DJ, Gardy. Give me the Tigers, or any huge dog facing these guys. You can't tell me every team doesn't want to come in here and beat the big, bad Yankees. Also on the Under here. 4* Money Maker DETROIT TIGERS 

Taking the PHILLIES and backing Nola. Now, we are 11-17 with MLB so far, but down -103. That is because when we play dogs and + money Run Lines, we won't get buried. So we step out on a road fave. Just think Nola is that much better. Think they take it to the Nats again. Washington bullpen again looks like it will be in for a long year. 4* Money Maker PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES 

Taking the PADRES. One. I think Greinke is on a serious downward trend right now. Two. We have cashed with SD a couple times already. We really should be looking at RL +200 here. Off a tough Monday of baseball, we will stick to the ML and get the bankroll back up. Think we see some runs and will also be on the over. 4* Money Maker SD PADRES 

Taking OAKLAND. Have to grab the home dogs at this big price. Red Sox struggling a bit out of the gate. Sale wasn't sharp in his first start. Maybe he takes some time to get back into form. Usually he closes like this. So it is tough fading a guy who historically is better early. I thought Sox had some bullpen problems to start the season. The starters haven't helped ease that weak spot. 4* Money Maker OAKLAND A's

Taking the MARLINS, again. Will go back to Miami tonight. Bullpen blows a 3-2 in the 7th, then totally implodes in the 9th. 3 tough losses yesterday with Pirates, Reds and Miami all losing late. So as I said yesterday. Mets riding high after the Nats series. Now they send their weakest link to the mound. Miami scrappy and will win a game or two in home series. 4* Money Maker MIAMI MARLINS 

Taking REDS. Back on Cincy today. Think they hit Chacin. Bullpen again gets us in the 9th last night. Looking for reverse RL here on the Reds also. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS 

Taking the ANGELS. All you need to know about King Felix is in this line. The guy is a shell of his former self. Sad end to a great career. Hernandez 0-8 6.34 last 11 starts of last year. I am not sure it gets much better this season. Stratton comes over late in a trade with San Fran. Has edge of being a bit unfamiliar to hitters. I'll grab LAA as a small road fave. 4* Money Maker LA ANGELS 

Taking the MARLINS. Had these guys yesterday, and will come back again. Look. Mets off a nice series taking 2 of 3 from the Nats. Now they play the lowly Marlins. I'm in NJ. Not a Mets fan. But man oh man, this team is primed to get swept here. That is just the way they play. They rip their fans hearts out in imaginable fashion. Matz off a career high innings pitched. And promptly was shelled all Spring Training. Home dogs worth a play with a good strikeout pitcher on the hill tonight. 4* Money Maker MIAMI MARLINS 

Taking the REDS. Nearly went RL +170. But man, Yelich is a one man wrecking crew right now. Can totally see that guy hitting a meaningless HR and we win 7-6 or something. So I am fading Milwaukee off that wild STL series and that comeback win. Also though, and more importantly, Zach Davies. 13 starts last year. Off an injury. Still getting back into form. This Reds team has some hitters that can make you pay. Roark has been up and down in his career. And off an 'off' year, I am expecting a big year for him with his new club. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS 

Taking the TIGERS. So I have faded NY now in 3 of their first 4 games. And I will do it again at this price. So Domingo German may have had a nice spring. That's fine. But last year, vs MLB lineups, 5.57 ERA in 21 starts. Now, do I think he will improve overall. Of course. That's a young guy taking his lumps. Is Detroit a monster offensive lineup? Of course not. But it is about a number here. And getting nearly 2-1 - I will be shocked if this line doesn't get better for underdog bettors as the day goes on, have to make the play. This Yankees staff does not impress me. Oh, they will hit. But we will have plenty of chances to cash hearty dogs this season. 4* Money Maker DETROIT TIGERS 

Taking the PIRATES. So, Cards hurt us yesterday blowing that game. New day though. And for me, off a tough series vs the Brewers, who StL probably views more of a threat, we will take the home team here. Archer was solid down the stretch for Pitt last season. And I cannot take Wainwright even as a dog. Guy put off retirement. Why? Life-time 5.54 ERA in this park. Guy pitched in 8 games last year. Had a 5+ ERA the year in 24 games. We have to go to 2014 when he was really good. At 37, and off another injury, I am not expecting that vintage Wainwright. 4* Money Maker PITT PIRATES 

4* Money Maker SF GIANTS

4* Money Maker STL CARDINALS 

4* Money Maker MIAMI MARLINS 

4* Money Maker BALTIMORE ORIOLES 

4* Money Maker ATLANTA BRAVES

Taking ARIZONA. Not a fan of Greinke at all and probably should have at least went RL against him. You know I hate taking big faves as we did have the Orioles +320 yesterday. A 3-3 day on the diamond, but it was profitable with the Run Line wins on Oakland and San Diego. Here, we are all about Robbie Ray. Guy has nice numbers vs LAD. 8-3 2.67 ERA in 17 starts - We know he will keep us in the game. DBacks rocked Stripling to the tune of a 11+ ERA in his 2 starts last year. Off of a humiliating loss, we will grab the dogs to bounce back. 4* Money Maker ARIZONA DBACKS 

Taking the CARDINALS. Had them yesterday, will back them again today. Not much to say on that. 4* Money Maker STL CARDINALS 

Taking the TWINS. Look. Everyone is probably on the Indians to win this division. Don't sleep on Minny one bit. First off. Tribe banged up right now. Kipnis and Lindor both out. Ramirez banged up his knee. Michael Brantley is gone. The bullpen and OF are far from elite. Minny went out and got the ageless HR machine Nelson Cruz and picked up CJ Cron, Jonathan Schoop and Marwin Gonzalez. If Buxton gets back to 2017 form, these guys will surprise. - Berrios could be a Cy Young contender. Kluber is not getting any younger and we have seen plenty of times where Cleveland struggles to push runs across the plate for him. 4* Money Maker MINNESOTA TWINS

Taking the PIRATES. I do think that we can make a little coin on the Reds in spots this year. But here, I will grab Taillon. Guy had a great season LY and will look for it to continue. 3-2 3.16 vs Cincy in 5 starts last year. 4* Money Maker PITT PIRATES 

Taking ST LOUIS. Now. You know we made some bank last year on this Brewers team. But out of the gate, I can't back Jhoulys Chacin. Have to side with Mikolas at this price. Guy went 18-4 2.83 ERA 1.07 WHIP last year. Going 3-0 vs the Brew Crew is nice also. STL brings in Goldy to take over 1B. I do like Milwaukee to battle for the division, in this spot though, road dog. 4* Money Maker STL CARDINALS 

Taking a big flyer on the ORIOLES. I got these guys under 59 wins. But, getting 3-1, have to make a play. Especially with Tanaka opening day woes. 2015-18, 0-2 9.49 ERA in those starts, all losses on Opening Day. A bit of a caveat, on one of NJs mobile apps, I have Stanton +170 and Judge +175 to hit HRs today. That being said, more than 300, I will be looking for Baltimore to steal just 1 game and we have a profitable series. 4* Money Maker BALTIMORE ORIOLES 

Taking the DODGERS. Lost with LA last night. Should have played the over liked I mentioned in the write up. But that's the past. New day. Will back Ryu over Price. Price's post-season woes well documented. That being said, this is more a play on Rye. Guy is pretty good, and under the radar. Dodgers a good team. Price self admitted he has problems gripping the ball in the cold. Could be another Over also. But I am just sticking to the dogs and LA to even the series. 4* Money Maker LA DODGERS 

Taking the DODGERS. I know the Sox have 115 wins under the belt. They are a good team. But I am not letting Kershaw slip past me getting this kind of number as a dog. Arguably the best pitcher of his generation - I get he doesn't have the post season numbers like his dominate regular season stats. I am not going to go over a few bad innings that skew things for him. Sale in the post season has been worse. And the fact that he hasn't really been healthy the second half doesn't help him either. LA is a good team. Wouldn't be in b2b World Series' games if they weren't - We will grab LA as a dog - also looking at the Over in this spot. Might add later. 4* Money Maker LA DODGERS 

Taking the DODGERS. You know I like Ryu. I think this guy is their ace right now. I know Kershaw is a beast, but this guy has flown undercover for me since joining LA. 2 post season starts this year, .88 WHIP 12Ks 11 innings. Zero walks. At this price, it is really one of those 'no-brainer- type games for me. Miley was more than capable for Milwaukee in his 16 starts. A 2.57 ERA in 80.2 innings of work. Again, can't knock his numbers for the Brewers. That being said though, this LA team is deep and talented. They will play today like it is Game 7. 4* Money Maker LA DODGERS 

Taking the RED SOX. I know that the Price is wrong nearly every outing in the post-season. But we have taken the Sox before as a dog. This is a 114 win team. They are pretty good. I think the wind is out of the Astros sails. Verlander is special. But they will have to go to the pen eventually today. And that has been a house of horrors this post season. Nobody can get that 3rd out. So many 2 out runs last night. Won't be shocked at another over either. But I will be on the Boston to wrap things up. 4* Money Maker BOSTON RED SOX 

Taking the BREWERS. Have to say. Thought that LA would be up 2 one here. But this Milwaukee team just continues to grind out wins. Pressure starting to mount on LA. Have to jump on the hottest team playing over the last few weeks. 4* Money Maker MILWAUKEE BREWERS 

Taking the RED SOX. We are taking both dogs today in MLB. I thought this would be a tough series for either team. Can't overlook a Boston team that despite winning 112 games, is still getting disrespected with some of these lines in the playoffs. 4* Money Maker BOSTON RED SOX
