Yankees (Severino) @ Blue Jays (Kikuchi) 1:37 PM ET

Game# 915-916

Play On: Yankees -117 (10*)

The Blue Jays Kikuchi has been in horrendous form over his last 3 starts with a 10.60 ERA and 2.36 WHIP. Kikuchi has made 3 career home starts versus the Yankees and had a miserable 6.60 ERA during those outings. The Blue Jays bullpen has a sizable 6.43 ERA during its last 7 games with much of that damage attributed to 6 homers allowed 28.0 innings pitched. That’s not good news considering they’ll be facing the top home run hitting team in in baseball who’s hit 104 home runs in their first 64 games. The Blue Jays are 3-9 this season with Kikuchi as their starter and 34-18 with everyone else.

The Yankees headed into this weekend having won 8 straight and 15 of its last 16 games. Luis Severino has been in terrific form over his last 5 starts with a sparkling 1.67 ERA and 0.77 WHIP while averaging 6.5 innings pitched per outing. The Yankees bullpen has been lights out with a 1.57 ERA and 0.84 WHIP over their previous 7 games. Give me the Yankees on the money line for a Top Play wager.

Cardinals @ Red Sox 1:35 PM ET

Game# 925-926

Play On: Red Sox -125 (5*)

This pick is all about Boston and Nick Pivetta. Boston entered the weekend having gone 12-3 in their last 15 games. Conversely, the Cardinals have lost 4 straight on the road. Furthermore, the Red Sox have gone an extremely profitable 19-6 since the start of last season when playing against National League teams. Speaking of Nick Pivetta, he’s managed to compile an excellent 0.93 ERA and 0.69 WHIP during his last 4 starts this season at Fenway Park. Give me the Red Sox on the money line.

Phillies (Eflin) @ Nationals (Tetreault) 12:05 PM ET

Game# 901-902

Play On: Over 9.5 (5*)

Jackson Tetreault had a nightmarish MLB debut start this past Monday while allowing 7 earned runs, 9 hits, and allowed 3 home runs in only 4.0 innings pitched. The Nationals bullpen has a 4.93 ERA over their previous 7 game which includes surrendering an alarmingly high 11 home runs. Going into this weekend’s action, Washington had played 8-2 to the over during its last 10 games.

Zach Eflin has been great at home but the opposite in his road starts. Eflin has pitched 5-0 to the over on the road this season with his 7.87 ERA and 1.75 WHIP during those outings being a key contributing factor. The Phillies bullpen has a terrible 6.43 ERA and 1.86 WHIP throughout its previous 7 games. During that 7-game stretch, Philadelphia also scored a healthy 5.6 runs per game and had an outstanding .351 OBP. Philadelphia has played 10-1 to the over in road games this season whenever the total was 8.5 to 10. Give me this game to go over the total.

Brewers (Alexander) @ Reds (Ashcroft) 4:10 PM ET

Game# 957-958

Play On: Reds -104 (5*)

The Brewers Jason Alexander has a deceiving 2.16 ERA in 3 starts this season. Alexander had a large 1.74 WHIP in those outings which simply means he’s been wiggling out of several jams based on that low ERA and has been extremely lucky to this point. Milwaukee won the opening game of this series 5-4 on Friday. The bad news is that the Brewers are 0-4 in their previous 4 following a loss and they haven’t won 2 consecutive games since 5/30. As a matter of fact, the Brewers are 4-12 in their last 16 games.

The Reds Graham Ashcroft has gone 5-0 in his team starts in 2022 with a stellar 2.22 WHIP. He’s been especially tough at home where he has a brilliant 0.47 ERA in 3 starts while averaging 6.4 innings pitched per outing. After starting the season 4-23, the Reds have been a more respectable 19-18 since that time. Give me the Reds on the money line.

Brewers (Lauer) @ Reds (Greene) 6:40 PM ET

Game# 905-906

Play On: Over 9.0 (10*)

These teams have met 6 times already this season and all have gone over the total with a combined average of 15.8 runs scored per game.

Hunter Green has made 2 starts versus Milwaukee this season with a massive 11.25 ERA, 2.25 WHIP, and allowed an alarmingly high 6 home runs in just 8.0 innings pitched. The Reds bullpen has been shaky over its last 7 games with a staff 5.49 ERA and 1.53 WHIP. The Brewers Eric Lauer has displayed poor form throughout his last 3 starts with a 6.60 ERA, 1.80 WHIP, and all 3 games went over the total. Give me this game to go over the total for a Top Play wager.

The Angels have scored 2 runs or fewer in 10 of its last 15 games. Shoei Ohtani has a stellar 1.12 WHIP during 10 starts this season. Ohtani has made 3 career starts versus Seattle with an impressive 2.37 ERA, 0.90 WHIP, and amassed 26 strikeouts versus 2 walks in 20.0 innings of work. The Angels bullpen has a more than respectable 3.29 ERA and 1.17 WHIP throughout its last 7 games. Give me this game to go under the total.

Game# 951-952

Play On: Padres -1.5 (-113)

The Padres have won the first 3-games of this series at Wrigley Field and outscored the Cubs by a substantial margin of 35-11 while doing so. The Cubs have now lost 9 in a row heading into today and were outscored by an average of 6.4 runs per game. The Cubs Matt Swarmer has made 3 starts in 2022 and allowed an alarmingly high 9 home runs in just 17.0 innings pitched. Considering the weather forecast is calling for winds blowing 14-15 MPH out to right-center today, that doesn’t bode well for Swarmer. Throughout the previous 7 games the Cubs bullpen has recorded an abysmal 11.50 ERA, 2.11 WHIP, and allowed 12 home runs in 36.0 innings. The Cubs are a terrible 4-16 at home this season following a loss.

The Padres have gone 10-3 in their last 13 and includes 6-0 during away games. As a matter of fact, San Diego is 23-11 on the road this season. Joe Musgrove is enjoying a fabulous start to the season while going 10-1 in his team starts with an excellent 1.50 ERA. The Padres hurler has been even more dominating over his last 4 starts with a 0.33 ERA while logging 27.0 innings pitched. Musgrove has allowed only 4 home runs in 11 starts this season and that’s significant. The Cubs are a dismal 1-10 at home this season when facing a pitcher that allows 0.5 or fewer home runs per start. The Padres bullpen has an outstanding 0.95 ERA and 0.74 WHIP over their last 7 games.

Braves (Strider) @ Nationals (Fedde) 7:05 PM ET

Game# 905-906

Play On: Braves -1.5 (-105) (5*)

Washington has gone an abysmal 14-46 since the start of last season as a money line home underdog of +100 or greater. Washington is a terrible 4-15 at home in 2022 when facing a righthanded starting pitcher. Erick Fedde makes his first start of the season versus Atlanta.

Atlanta has won 13 consecutive games with 11 of those wins coming by 2 or more runs. During this 13-0 run, Atlanta has outscored their opponents by an average of 4.1 runs per game. During their last 7 games Atlanta has hit an enormous 22 home runs. Spence Strider has shown solid form over his last 3 starts with a 3.86 ERA and 1.29 WHIP. The Atlanta bullpen has been terrific throughout their previous 7 games with a staff 1.14 ERA and 0.68 WHIP. Give me the Braves on the run line.

Rays (Kluber) @ Yankees (Cole) 7:05 PM ET

Game# 965-966

Play On: Under 8.0 (5*)

Corey Kluber enters this start in good form. During his previous 3 starts, Kluber has posted a stellar 2.65 ERA and 0.82 WHIP. One of those starts came at home versus the Yankees where he allowed only 1 earned run in 6.0 inning pitched. The Rays bullpen has been lights out over their previous 7 games while compiling a staff 1.23 ERA.

Gerrit Cole is coming off a forgettable start at Minnesota in which he allowed a career 5 home runs. However, Cole has a solid 2.87 ERA and 0.80 WHIP in 6 home starts. Cole has made 1 start versus Tampa Bay this season and allowed only 1 earned run while striking out 10 in 6.0 innings of work. The Yankees bullpen has a brilliant 1.97 ERA and 0.84 WHIP throughout their last 7 games. Give me this game to go under the total.

Marlins (Alcantara) @ Phillies (Nola) 7:05 PM ET

Game# 901-902

Play On: Miami +120 (5*)

Aaron Nola’s recent performance line is impressive with much of that success coming in road starts. During his last 2 home starts Nola has allowed an alarmingly high 9 earned runs in 11 1/3 innings pitched. Nola has made 2 home starts versus Miami since 2020 and allowed 11 earned runs in 10.0 innings pitched. The Phillies are coming off yesterday’s 13-1 loss to Arizona which put an end to a season high 9-game win streak. The Phillies are 4-8 in their last 12 games following a loss.

Miami’s Sandy Alcantara has flown under the radar this season and has emerged as a legitimate National League Cy Young candidate. The Marlins hurler has a brilliant 1.61 ERA in 12 starts this season while averaging 7.0 innings pitched per outing. Alcantara has been even better than that throughout his previous 6 starts with a 0.56 ERA which includes 2 complete game shutouts. Alcantara pitched 7.0 or more innings in each of those starts and Miami went 6-0 in those games. Miami has gone 8-4 this season when Alcantara was their starter and includes 6-0 versus fellow NL East opponents. The Marlins are coming off yesterday’s 9-4 loss at Houston which broke their 5-game win streak. Nonetheless, Miami has gone 4-0 in their last 4 following a loss. The Marlins are an uninspiring 27-31 this season, but they’ve gone a very profitable 15-7 in division games. Give me the Marlins as a money line underdog.

Dodgers (Urias) @ Giants (Rodon) 4:05 PM ET

Game# 959-960

Play On: Under 8.0 (5*)

The Dodgers have gone over the total in just 31.2% of their 32 road games this season. The Dodgers Julio Urias has pitched 8-1 to the under this season whenever there was a total of 7.0 to 8.5 and there was a combined average of 5.9 runs scored per game. Since 7/21/2021 Urias has made 5 starts versus San Francisco and he recorded an impressive 1.23 during those outings. The Dodgers have gone over the total in just 2 of its previous 9 games.

Carlos Rodon has a solid 2.67 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in 5 home starts this year. During those home appearances, Rodon has also struck out 44 batters in 27.0 innings pitched.

Game# 957-958

Play On: Under 8.5 (5*)

Blue Jays (Stripling) @ Tigers (Skubal) 1:40 PM ET

Game# 965-966

Play On: Under 8.0 (5*)

The Blue Jays will be facing lefthander Tarik Skubal today. Toronto has played 9-2 to the under this season when facing lefthanded starting pitchers. Ross Stripling has pitched 5-1 to the under this season with a more than respectable 3.46 ERA and 0.96 WHIP. Stripling will be facing a Tigers team with a poor season slugging percentage of .321. Stripling has pitched 9-1 to the under since the start of last season when going up against an American League team with a season slugging percentage of .400 or worse.

Tarik Skubal is a vastly underrated starting pitcher. During his previous 6 starts, Skubal has compiled an excellent 1.38 ERA and 0.77 WHIP. Detroit is averaging just a paltry 2.8 runs per game this season. With that said it comes as no surprise that they’ve witnessed only 32.8% of their 58 games going over the total this season. The Detroit bullpen has a sparking staff 2.84 ERA this season. Give me this game to go under the total.

Diamondbacks (Bumgarner) @ Phillies (Wheeler) 4:10 PM ET

Game# 905-906

Play On: Phillies -1.5 (-105) (10*)

Madison Bumgarner has a lofty 5.63 ERA over his last 4 starts and allowed 6 home runs in 24.0 innings pitched. That high ratio of home runs allowed is problematic when considering he’ll be facing a Phillies team which has cracked 21 home runs throughout its previous 8 games. The Arizona bullpen has been extremely shaky of late. Since last season, Arizona is 6-30 during the month of June.

The Phillies enter today riding a red-hot 8-game win streak and scored 6 runs or more 7 times. Blake Wheeler has a brilliant 1.73 ERA and 0.94 WHIP during 6 home starts this season. The maligned Phillies bullpen has been terrific recently. Give me the Phillies on the run-line.

The Royals bullpen has an awful 1.86 WHIP over its last 7 games and issued 20 walks in 26.0 innings during that span. Kansas City has played 14-6 (70%) to the over during its previous 20 games. Give me this game to go over the total.

Game# 977-978

Play On: Under 8.0 (5*)

Luis Gonzalez has pitched 8-2 to the under in 10 starts this season with a 3.02 ERA and 1.02 WHIP. Garcia has also pitched 7-0 to the under since the start of last season when facing National League teams. The Astros bullpen has a terrific 1.49 ERA and 0.95 WHIP at home this season. Betting on Astros games to go under the total this season has been extremely profitable. The Astros have gone over the total in just 29.8% of their 57 games played.

The Marlins Pablo Lopez is a vastly underrated starting pitcher. Lopez has a stellar 2.32 ERA and 0.97 WHIP in 11 starts this season. Lopez has an even better 1.41 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in 5 road starts while 4 of those 5 games went under the total. Lopez has pitched 6.0 or more innings in 5 of his last 6 starts. Give me this game to go under the total.

Game# 955-956

Play On: Under 8.0 (5*)

However, they’ll be facing Milwaukee starting pitcher Adrian Houser tonight and he’s allowed just 3 home runs in 51 2/3 innings pitched which includes just giving up 1 homer in 27 2/3 innings pitched at home. Houser is 3-2 in his home team starts with a shiny 1.95 ERA this season. The Brewer bullpen has been solid at home in 2022 with a staff 3.06 ERA and 1.08 WHIP. During their previous 7 played, Milwaukee has average just 3.0 runs scored per game, registered a poor team batting average of .197, and hit a mere 3 home runs.

Aaron Nola has started 1 game versus Milwaukee this season and pitched 7.0 scoreless innings while striking out 9 and walking only 1. Nola has a solid 3.38 ERA and 1.09 WHIP in 5 road starts this season while averaging a healthy 6.2 innings pitched per outing. The beleaguered Phillies bullpen has been very good of late. Throughout their previous 7 games, Phillies relievers have a cumulative 2.13 ERA and 0.87 WHIP. Give me this game to go under the total.

Yankees (Cortes) @ Twins (Archer) 7:40 PM ET

Game# 967-968

The Yankees have won 7 in a row and outscored their opponents by an aggregate score of 48-11. That now makes the Yankees a scintillating 33-9 in their previous 42 games played. During that stretch the Bronx Bombers have a team batting average of .309 and socked 16 home runs. Hector Cortes has been sensational this season for New York with a 1.50 ERA and 0.87 WHIP in 10 starts.

Gilbert was dominating in his only start versus Houston this season while pitching 7.0 innings of scoreless baseball. The Mariners are 5-3 on this current road trip following yesterday’s 4-1 loss.

The Tigers are coming off a 5-4 extra inning loss at Yankee Stadium on Sunday. Detroit is an incredible 13-1-2 to the under this season following an over in their previous game. The Tigers have also played 15-4 (79%) to the under this season when facing teams with a losing record. By the way, the Tigers bullpen has an impressive staff 1.80 ERA over their last 7 games.

The Pirates Jose Quintana has been a pleasant surprise thus far in 2022 while recording a sparkling 2.23 ERA in 10 starts.

Give me this game to go under the total for a Top Play.

Game# 919-920

Play On: Under 8.0 (5*)

The Toronto Blue Jays have gone over the total in 7 straight games. However, all 7 of those games came against righthanded starting pitchers. The Blue Jays will be facing Twins lefthanded starter Devin Smeltzer today and that’s noteworthy and relevant. Why, because the Blue Jays have played 8-1 to the under this season versus lefthanded starting pitchers. By the way, Smeltzer has exhibited excellent form over his last 4 starts with a 1.50 ERA and 0.83 WHIP while averaging 6.0 innings pitched per outing.

Indians (McKenzie) @ Orioles (Wells) 4:05 PM ET

Game# 973-974

Baltimore will be facing righthanded starter Triston McKenzie today. The Orioles are a dismal 11-21 versus righthanded starters this season. Since the start of last season, the Orioles are an abysmal 22-57 in day games. Baltimore’s Tylor Wells has pitched very well at time this season. However, Wells has struggled mightily in 4 day game starts while recording 6.43 ERA and 1.64 WHIP.

Despite being 1 game below .500 the Guardians possess a +0.5 run per game differential. Conversely, Baltimore is a horrible 9-35 at home since 2021 when facing a team with a +0.5 or greater run per game differential. Give me the Guardians for a money line wager.

The Angels Michael Lorenzen has been rock-solid in his 3 home starts with a 3.24 ERA and 0.96 WHIP. Lorenzen was dominant in his lone start versus Oakland this season while allowing 1 earned run over 7.0 innings pitched. Give me this game to go under the total.

Nationals (Corbin) @ Brewers (Woodruff) 7:10 PM ET

Game# 961-962

Play On: Brewers -1.5 (-105) (5*)

The Nationals Patrick Corbin has gone 0-8 in his team starts this season with a lousy 6.28 ERA and 1.68 WHIP. Washing has scored 2 runs or less in 6 of their last 8 and includes last night’s 7-0 loss at Milwaukee. They’ll be facing a Milwaukee Brewers team that’s 12-3 in their last 15 at home and a starting pitcher who’s dominated them.

Milwaukee’s Brandon Woodruff is 3-0 in his home team starts this season with an excellent 1.62 ERA and 0.66 WHIP. Woodruff has made 4 career starts versus Washington with an awesome 1.13 ERA and 0.54 WHIP. The Brewers bullpen has been strong over their last 7 games while recording a 2.14 ERA and 0.91 WHIP. Give me the Brewers on the run-line.

Dodgers (White) @ Phillies (Nola) 6:05 PM ET

Game# 955-956

Play On: Phillies -120 (5*)

The opening and current money line on this matchup jumped right off the screen at me. We have a Dodgers team on a present 6-game win streak as an underdog versus an opponent that’s last 4 of its last 5. Furthermore, the Dodgers are a sizable 8.5 games ahead of Philadelphia in the National League standings. The sportsbooks are begging you to take the underdog here. I’m not taking the bait.

The Phillies ace Aaron Nola has made 4 home starts this season with a 3.09 ERA and 0.69 WHIP. Nola has made 2 starts versus the Dodgers since last season and allowed only 2 earned runs and striking out 15 in 11.0 innings of work. Nola has averaged 6.5 innings pitched per start over his last 5. That’s extremely important in the respect that it protects an already vulnerable Phillies bullpen from being asked to carry a heavy load. Give me the Phillies on the money line.

A’s (Blackburn) @ Angels (Silseth) 9:38 PM ET

Game# 927-928

Play On: Under 8.0 (5*)

Chase Silseth will be making a 2nd ever MLB start. If he comes close duplicating his MLB debut, then A’s hitters will once again struggle. I say once again because Silseth’s debut came against the A’s on 5/13 and he allowed 0 earned runs on 4 hits during 6.0 innings pitched.

Paul Blackburn has been lights out in 7 starts this season with a brilliant 1.67 ERA and 0.90 WHIP. Blackburn has been even better than that in his 4 road starts with a 0.83 ERA during those appearances. The A’s bullpen has been solid on the road this season with a 2.65 ERA. Oakland has been anemic offensively throughout their previous 7 while averaging a paltry 2.3 runs scored per game and managed to hit only 2 home runs. Give me this game to go under the total.

The Nationals have played 9-1 to the under this season when facing a lefty starter.

Speaking of Eric Lauer, he’s compiled a superb 2.60 ERA and 0.98 WHIP during his 6 starts this season. The Brewers bullpen has a solid 2.84 ERA and 1.09 WHIP at home this season. Give me this game to go under the total.

Game# 919-920

Play On: Tigers -105

Cleveland has begun this current 5-game homestand with a pair of losses to the lowly Cincinnati Reds. The Guardians are 4.5 games ahead of Cleveland in the American League standings. Yet, they opened as a home underdog versus a 13-25 Tigers team. That line speaks volumes to me and upon further research it was apparent to me what the oddsmakers were seeing.

Aaron Civale has pitched extremely well versus the Tigers in his career. However, he enters today having displayed terrible form over his last 3 starts while recording an 11.42 ERA and 1.79 WHIP. The Tigers Tarik Skubal has been in excellent form throughout his previous 3 starts with a 0.95 ERA and 0.90 WHIP. As a matter of fact, Skubal has registered an impressive 2.04 ERA and allowed 0 earned runs in 4 of those 7 appearances. The Tigers bullpen has been a strength this season as they have a staff 2.84 ERA and 1.08 WHIP. Give me the Tigers on the money line.

As a matter of fact, the Yankees southpaw hurler has pitched 4-0 to the under during his last 4 starts versus Baltimore with a superb 1.71 ERA. By the way, Baltimore has played 13-1 to the under this season when facing a lefthanded starting pitcher. The Yankees bullpen has an impressive 2.91 ERA and 0.97 WHIP throughout their previous 7 games.

The Orioles Bruce Zimmerman has pitched 9 1/3 innings of scoreless baseball during his 2 starts versus the Yankees in 2022. Zimmerman has also pitched 3-1 to the under in his day game starts this season with a terrific 0.93 ERA. The Orioles are averaging a paltry 1.9 runs scored per game during its last 8 outings.

The Nationals will be facing Marlins righthander Pablo Lopez. The Miami hurler has been dominant in 7 starts this season with a 1.26 ERA and 0.81 WHIP. Since the start of last season, Washington has played 10-1 to the under when facing National League starting pitchers with an ERA of 2.40 or better.

The Rockies bullpen has a terrible 7.2+6 ERA, 1.71 WHIP, and surrendered 6 home runs throughout its previous 7 games. Colorado is coming off a 10-7 loss to the Giants last night and that makes 8 straight in which they went over the total with a combined average of 14.4 runs scored per game.

San Francisco has played 7-1 to the over in their last 8 and there was a combined average of 12.1 runs scored per game. They scored 6 runs or more in 7 of those 8 games.

Jose Berrios has been horrible over his last 2 starts while allowing 11 earned runs in just 10.0 innings versus the Yankees and Guardians. The Blue Jays bullpen has been erratic thus far in 2022 and especially so at home.

Toronto won the opening game of this series yesterday with a 6-2 win over Seattle. However, Seattle is 4-0 in their last 4 following a loss while Toronto is 0-4 during their previous 4 after a win. Give me the Mariners as a money line underdog.

Game# 931-932

Play On: Over 11.0 (5*)

German Marquez has gone 0-4 in his last 4 team starts with a terrible 7.83 ERA and 1.94 WHIP. Based on that high of a WHIP, Marquez is lucky his ERA wasn’t much higher in those outings. During his last 2 starts at Coors Field, Marquez has surrendered an alarmingly high 5 home runs in just 11.0 innings pitched. The Colorado bullpen has struggled mightily throughout the past couple of weeks. Colorado has gone over the total in each of its last 4 and there was a combined average of 14.0 runs scored per game.

Marlins (Luzardo) @ Padres (Martinez) 9:40 PM ET

Game# 957-958

Play On: Under 7.0 (5*)

I like the situation more than the overall statistics for this to be a low scoring game. Both teams played yesterday on the east coast and had to take the trek across 3 time zones for today’s matchup. Furthermore, the Padres played a double-header at Cleveland and Game 2 of that twinbill went extra innings. More times than not throughout the years teams have what I call tired bats syndrome which produce low scoring affairs. Additionally, teams customarily fly in their slated starting pitchers 24 hours in advance to get their proper rest.

The Miami starter Jesus Luzardo has made 2 road starts in 2022 and posted an impressive 1.80 ERA while striking out 20 batters in 10.0 innings pitched.

The Rockies German Marquez has displayed terrible form over his last 3 starts with a 7.71 ERA and 2.07 WHIP.

The Rockies bullpen has been awful throughout their previous 7 games while compiling a 6.75 ERA and 1.66 WHIP. Since the start of last season, Colorado has played 14-4 to the over at home when there was a total of 10.0 or 10.5. Give me this game to go over the total.

Houston has gone 13-4 at home versus Seattle since 2020. The Astros are 7-2 this season when facing lefthanded starting pitchers and hit 15 home runs while doing so. The Astros bullpen has been terrific in their 6 home games in 2022 with a brilliant 1.35 ERA as a staff.

Game# 903-904

Play On: Under 7.0 (5*)

Chris Bassitt has been solid for the Mets this season during his 4 starts with a 2.25 ERA and 0.92 WHIP in 24.0 innings pitched.

Atlanta is coming off a 7-3 loss at Texas yesterday in a game that went over the total of 9.0. The Braves have played 6-1 to the under during its last 7 following an over in their previous game. Give me this game to go under the total.

Game# 909-910

Play On: Yankees -115 (5*)

Jordan Montgomery has a superb 2.70 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in 4 starts this season. The Yankees enter this series riding a 9-game win streak. Throughout their previous 7 outings New York has averaged a robust 8.3 runs scored per game and smacked 17 home runs.

Ross Stripling has made 2 career starts versus the Yankees with an uninspiring 4.50 ERA and both came last season. The Blue Jays bullpen has recorded a terrible 6.47 ERA and 1.65 WHIP throughout its previous 7 games. During that identical stretch, Toronto has averaged a paltry 2.8 runs scored per game. Give me the Yankees on the money line.

Angels (Lorenzen) @ White Sox (Keuchel) 2:10 PM ET

Game# 969-970

Play On: Angels -115 (5*)

Dallas Keuchel has been horrible in 3 starts with a 9.90 ERA and 2.40 WHIP. Furthermore, he averaged only 3 1/3 innings pitched per start.

Game# 975-976

Logan Gilbert has a brilliant 0.40 ERA in 4 starts. Sandy Alcantara has a sparkling 1.78 ERA in his 4 starts. The Marlins are currently a money line favorite of -115. Alcantara has pitched 9-0 to the under at home since last season when Miami had a money line of +125 to -125 and there was only a combined average of 5.1 runs scored per game. Miami’s bullpen has a 3.36 ERA and has made good on 8 of 9 save opportunities. The Mariners bullpen has a very good 2.95 ERA and 1.09 WHIP. Give me this game to go under the total.

Spenser Watkins has made 3 starts this season and posted a sparkling 2.77 ERA. Baltimore has played 6-0-1 to the under at home this season. The Orioles bullpen has been excellent in games at Camden Yards. The Orioles have hit just 10 home runs in 20 games.

The Twins Dylan Bundy is 3-0 in his team starts this season with a brilliant 0.59 ERA. The Twins enter today riding a 7-game win streak and allowed a mere 12 combined runs over that stretch. The Twins bullpen has recorded an excellent 2.05 ERA and 0.95 WHIP throughout its previous 8 games. Corey Kluber has made 3 starts in 2022 and registered a sizable 1.57 WHIP during those outings.

The Astros Jose Urquidy has made 3 starts versus Toronto since the start of last season and posted a lofty 5.28 ERA while allowing an alarming 5 home runs in 17.0 innings. Urquidy also has an uninspiring 5.52 ERA during 3 starts this season.

Mariners (Brash) @ Marlins (Hernandez) 6:40 PM ET

Game# 975-976

Play On: Marlins +100 (5*)

Between these 2 starting pitchers and each bullpen my grades are just about even with neither team having a significant edge. Seattle has gone a terrific 7-1 at home this season. However, the Mariners are just 2-6 in their last 8 on the road. The Marlins enter today riding a 5-game winning streak. Give me the Marlins on the money line.

Tigers (Pineda) @ Twins (Ryan) 7:40 PM ET

Game# 973-974

Play On: Under 7.0 (5*)

Michael Pineda makes his 2nd start of the season and he was extremely sharp in his 2022 debut while pitching 5.0 innings of scoreless baseball. The Tigers bullpen has been outstanding throughout the previous 3 games with a brilliant 1.21 ERA. Tiger relievers have surrendered only 3 home runs in 69.0 innings pitched this season. Detroit has scored only an average of 2.7 runs per outing during 4 road games in 2022.

Joe Ryan has been terrific during his first 3 starts of the season while recording a 1.69 ERA and 0.88 WHIP in 16.0 innings pitched. Although Ryan has shown a vulnerability to giving up home runs early in his career, he’ll be facing a Tigers team which has homered just 8 times in 16 games. The Minnesota bullpen has been solid over its last 7 games with a 2.57 ERA and 1.04 WHIP. Give me this game to go under the total.

A’s (Jeffries) @ Giants (Rodon) 9:45 PM ET

Game# 929-930

Play On: Under 7.0 (5*)

Oakland has scored 2 runs or fewer in 5 of their last 6 games. The A’s have hit only 3 home runs throughout their last 7 games while posting a pathetic team batting average of .186. Oakland’s Daulton Jeffries has seen all 3 of his 2022 starts stay under the total and his 1.17 ERA during those outings was a major reason why. Carolos Rodon has been dominant in his first 3 starts with his new team with a 1.06 ERA and registering 29 strikeouts in 17.0 innings pitched. Both bullpens have been very good to start the year.

Oakland is coming off a 2-0 win over Texas and San Francisco defeated Milwaukee 4-2 during its previous game. Any team with a total of 7.0 or less (Giants) that allowed 2 runs or less in their previous game, versus an opponent (A’s) that’s coming off a game in which a combined 2 runs or fewer was scored, resulted in this specific situation playing 45-11 (80.4%) to the under since 2018. The average total in those 56 games was 6.8 and there were just a combined 5.0 runs scored per occurrence. Give me this game to go under the total.

Astros (Odorizzi) @ Rangers (O’Hearn) 8:05 PM ET

Game# 925-926

Play On: Over 9.0 (5*)

Jake Odorizzi has been horrible in 3 starts this season with a 9.00 ERA, 2.56 WHIP, and averaging a mere 3.0 innings pitched per start. The Houston bullpen has been great at home but a bit shaky on the road while issuing 17 walks in 36 1/3 innings.

Taylor O’Hearn has a sizable 7.59 ERA and 2.25 WHIP during his 3 starts in 2022. The Texas bullpen has allowed an alarmingly high 9 home runs during 38.0 innings pitched at home and also walked 18 men as well. Give me this game to go over the total.

Mariners (Gilbert) @ Rays (Wisler) 6:40 PM ET

Game# 915-916

Play On: Mariners +122 (5*)

Logan Gilbert is 3-0 in his team starts this season with a terrific 0.54 ERA while striking out 15 and walking just 1 during 16 2/3 innings pitched. Since the start of last season, Gilbert has gone an unscathed 9-0 in his teams starts following 2 appearances in which he allowed 2 earned runs or less. During that identical time span, Gilbert is an extremely profitable 12-2 in his teams starts when Seattle was +125 to -125 on the money line. The Seattle bullpen has been superb so far this season with a 2.62 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and 66 strikeouts in 55.0 innings. Since last season, Seattle has gone 13-6 on the road following an off day.

Seattle has a bullpen WHIP of just 1.00 to start the season and the Mariners hitters have an average of 8.1 men left on base per game.  Any road team (Mariners) with a bullpen WHIP of 1.15 or less, and they average 7.5 or more men left on base per game, resulted in those teams going 45-17 (72.6%) since 2018. Give me the Mariners as a money line underdog.
