Ohtani is coming off a complete game shutout against Detroit, but he had allowed 14 runs through his previous three starts. I think the value is on Seattle and Bryan Woo who allowed only two runs over 4 2/3 innings of a 6-2 win over the Angels back in June.

This looks like a good spot to back Toronto to bounce back from a 3-2 loss to the Angels.

Chris Bassitt is 3-0 with a 3.32 ERA over his last seven starts, the Blue Jays have a 5-2 team record during that stretch. Bassitt is 6-1 with a 2.24 ERA in 10 home starts on the season.

The Orioles are playing well but they are only 3-4 in Kyle Gibson's last seven starts, and Gibson has a 6.39 ERA during that stretch of games.

Mike's 4% Yankees/Orioles MLB TOP PLAY

The Orioles are 8-3 in Dean Kremer's 11 home starts this season and this looks like a good spot to back Baltimore to bounce back from an 8-3 loss to the Yankees on Saturday. The team is 4-0 in his last four starts, and Kremer has allowed a total of only eight runs over those four starts. 

Yankees starter Luis Severino has a 7.62 ERA in six road starts on the season and he has a 6.88 ERA over his last seven starts.

Oakland right-hander Luis Medina has allowed a total of only five runs with 14 Ks through his last three starts while pitching five innings in all those games. Colorado left-hander Ty Blach has made only six appearances (one start) this season and he has a 5.51 ERA over those outings. 

Colorado has won 10 more games than Oakland for the season, but the A's have won the first two games of this series and Colorado is on a four-game losing streak.

The Cubs are 7-3 in the last 10 meetings with the Cards and they've outscored the Cardinals 13-5 through the first two games of this series. 

Cardinals righty Adam Wainwright is 0-2 with a 10.08 ERA over his last three starts and he has an ERA of 8.31 over his last seven starts. Wainwright gave up seven runs over just three innings of a 9-1 loss to the Cubs last month. Chicago righty Jameson Taillon held St. Louis to one run over 5 2/3 innings of a 7-2 win in the same series.

Arizona has the better record of the two teams but the Mariners are 7-3 in the last 10 meetings and I think they odds favors them here as s road favorite at Arizona. 

Arizona right-hander Bryce Elder is going through a rough patch and he's been tagged with 16 runs over only 12 innings through his last three starts. As the D'backs bats are slumping as well, I like Seattle to follow yesterday's 5-2 win with another W.

This looks like a good spot to back Cleveland to bounce back from a 3-0 loss to the White Sox Friday night. The White Sox are only 1-6 in their last seven games and Cleveland is 6-1 in right-hander Logan Allen's last seven starts. The Guardians are also 6-1 in his seven road starts this season.

Mike's EARLY Angels/Blue Jays MLB BOOKIE BREAKER

The Angels are 8-2 in their last 10 games, but they lost the opener of this series 4-1 and I think they'll take another L today. 

Toronto right-hander Alek Manoah has an ERA of 9.00 at home and a 3.92 ERA on the road, but I expect his ERA at home to improve. He posted a 2.42 ERA in 15 home starts last season.  

Angels left-hander Reid Detmers is 0-2 with a 8.16 ERA in his last three starts.

The Yankees are 12-1 in Gerrit Cole's home starts on the season, but only 3-5 in his road starts.

Baltimore right-hander Grayson Rodriguez has pitched well since coming back from a two-month stint with Triple-A Norfolk.

Sure, the Yankees still have a pretty big edge on the mound, but the Orioles have the best record of the two teams and they're coming into the series in first place in the AL East while the Yankees sit in last place in the division.

The Braves have yet to heat up following the All-Star break, but I like them to win big here against Milwaukee and Adrian Houser who has an 0-3 record with a 3.42 ERA in five career games (four starts) against Atlanta.

Houser will be opposed by right-hander Yonny Chirinos who will make his team debut since being acquired off waivers from the Rays. I think he's primed for a strong outing.

Cards righty Miles Mikolas is coming off his worst start of the season (against this very Cubs team), but he is 5-3 with a 2.51 ERA in 18 career outings against the Cubs.

Cubs left-hander Justin Steele is 3-1 with a 3.86 ERA in five career starts against St. Louis, but I like the revenge spot for the Cards here after dropping three of four games against the Cubs last week.

The Nats have been playing well lately with wins in five of their last six games while averaging 6.3 runs per game. The Mets have been inconsistent but should have no trouble scoring runs off Josiah Gray who is 1-2 with an 8.00 ERA in four career starts against the Mets.

The Dodgers counter with Tony Gonsolin who has not been at his very best of late, but the Dodgers are still 3-0 in his last three starts and the Dodgers are 5-2 in his seven home starts for the season.

The Dodgers are coming off back-to-back losses, and this is a team that rarely drops three in a row.

On the season, the Dodgers are 8-4 coming off a pair of losses and while left-hander Julio Urias gave up eight runs at Baltimore in his last start, note that he is 5-1 with a 2.15 ERA at home.

Throughout his career, the Dodgers are 10-3 with Urias on the mound if he gave up five runs or more in his last start, giving us double bounce-back angles on the Dodgers.

Texas has a better record at 59-41 versus Houston's 56-44, but I'm not convinced they're the better team.

Houston righty Brandon Bielak has allowed only two earned runs over 17 2/3 innings of work in three starts this month since returning from Triple-A Sugar Land. 

Texas righty Jon Gray has allowed 12 runs over 18 innings in July. The Rangers have lost four of his last six starts. Gray is 1-3 with a 3.94 ERA in six career starts against the Astros.

The Phillies ended a four-game slide with an 8-5 win over Cleveland on Sunday, but I think they're in for a tough one here against a hot Baltimore team that has won 12 of its last 15 games. 

The Orioles are 14-6 in Dean Kremer's 20 starts this season and 6-1 in his last seven starts.

The Rays have dropped six of their last seven games, but I like the price we get on Tampa Bay to win this game. 

The Rays have lost each of right-hander Taj Bradley's last four starts, but three of those starts were on the road. Braley allowed only one run on three hits with eight strikeouts in six innings versus the Orioles last month. He was credited with the win.

The Braves snapped a four-game slide with a 7-5 win against Arizona last night.

The Mets counter with Carlos Carrasco who admittedly has struggled at home, but has heated up since a slow start to the year, and he is 1-0 with a 2.12 ERA over his last three starts overall.

The Mets scored only three runs through a three-game series against the Dodgers over the weekend, but I think their bats will come alive here. This is a good price on a, IMO, much better Mets team that has underperformed big time so far.
