The Seattle Mariners have dropped five of their last six after getting swept in three games in the Bronx and losing two of three at Boston.

Here they'll face a much weaker opponent in the 23-52 Baltimore Orioles, and right-hander Felix Hernandez (6-6, 5.14 ERA) has started to heat up and allowed just one earned run in each of his last two starts. 

Andrew Cashner (2-8, 4.72 ERA) will take the ball for the Orioles. The 31 year old righty threw four shutout innings and allowed just three hits with two strikeouts Wednesday in a no-decision against the Nationals, but note that he posted a 4.23 ERA in five starts against Seattle last season. 

Mariners are 6-2 in their last 8 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400 and 21-6 in Hernandez's last 27 road starts vs. a team with a losing record. Orioles are 1-11 in their last 12 home games and 1-6 in Cashner's last 7 home starts.

Over his last seven outings, Berrios is 4-1 with a 2.34 ERA. Rangers righty Bartolo Colon (4-4, 4.91 ERA) has been dominant in day games this season, surrendering just eight earned runs through 28 2/3 innings of work for a 2.51 ERA.

GAME OF THE WEEK (MLB)

The New York Yankees have taken back-to-back losses here at Tampa Bay, but they're the only team in baseball yet to lose three games in a row this season and I don't see them losing here in the series finale. 

Domingo German (2-4, 4.77 ERA) will take the ball for the Yankees. He's won two straight decisions, the first with six innings of three-run ball against the Rays followed by seven innings of one-run ball against Seattle. German registered 19 strikeouts vs. just two walks in those two starts. 

Matt Andriese (1-3, 3.68 ERA) will get a spot start for the Rays with originally scheduled starter Blake Snell getting an extra day of rest. Andriese last pitched Monday, allowing three runs in 2 2/3 innings of relief and his longest outing of the year lasted just 3 2/3 frames.

Yankees are 68-32 in their last 100 games after losing the first 2 games of a series and 6-2 in their last 8 Sunday games. Rays are 3-9 in their last 12 Sunday games.

The Orioles opened this series with a 10-7 triumph, but runs and wins have both been few and far between for Baltimore of late, having lost 11 of its last 14 games. 

Baltimore right-hander Dylan Bundy (5-7, 3.81 ERA) was tagged with four runs on five hits with a pair of homers in six innings his last time out, although it's worth noting he had tossed a combined 15 scoreless innings in his last two starts prior to that. 

Julio Teheran (5-4, 3.97 ERA) takes the ball for Atlanta. He fanned 11 through a six inning no-hitter against the Padres his last time out before getting pulled with a minor cramping issue. The Braves are 7-1 in Teheran’s last eight home starts. 

Under is 10-1 in Orioles last 11 interleague games vs. a team with a winning record. Under is 9-2 in Braves last 11 home games.

The Philadelphia Phillies opened this series with a 12-2 romp to make it five wins through their last six games. They're 9-2 in right-hander Aaron Nola's (8-2, 2.55 ERA) last 11 starts, and he has held opponents to one run or fewer in six of his previous eight turns despite getting knocked around his last time out. 

The Nationals have dropped eight of 11 and 25 year old right-hander Erick Fedde (0-2, 5.63 ERA) could be in for a tough game here in his fourth start of the season. Fedde has served up eight homers through 31 1/3 career innings and here he'll face a Phillies team which has scored a total of 42 runs through their last six games.

The Milwaukee Brewers really did a number on their NL Central rival Thursday night, and I think they'll come through with a win again here on Friday, but in a much lower scoring game. 

Cardinals right-hander Jack Flaherty (3-2, 2.66 ERA) is having an outstanding year and has allowed only one run with 13 Ks through his last two starts. Under is 7-2-1 in Flaherty's last 10 starts overall, and you just never know how much run support the Cards bats can provide their pitching staff. 

Milwaukee righty Junior Guerra (3-5, 2.89 ERA) was charged with three runs in 5 1/3 innings against Philly his last time out, but is still no doubt enjoying an excellent season. Guerra will carry a respectable 1.16 WHIP and 67/26 K/BB ratio over 71 2/3 innings into this contest and has shut down the Cardinals offense, holding them to only one run through 11 1/3 innings of work on the season.

Under is 20-5-1 in Brewers last 26 home games vs. a team with a winning road record and runs are likely to come at a premium for both sides. However, if one team was to run up the score it's more than likely to be the Brew Crew, just like they did in Thursday's 11-3 triumph.

The Minnesota Twins took a 9-2 beating from Boston Thursday afternoon, but they had already clinched the series by then and I expect them to come back strong here in the opener of a three-game series with Texas Rangers. 

Fernando Romero (3-2, 4.17 ERA) will take the ball for the Twins. The 23 year old right-hander has allowed eight runs through 15 innings here in June with Minnesota winning each of his three starts. He's 2-0 with a 2.91 ERA home at Target Field on the season. 

Mike Minor (4-4, 5.35 ERA) will take the ball for Texas. He's coming off seven solid innings of two-run ball against Colorado home in Arlington, but the left-hander has struggled on the road all season, posting an 8.14 ERA in five starts. Twins are 14-5 in their last 19 home games vs. a left-handed starter.

Milwaukee left-hander Brent Suter (7-4, 4.30 ERA) is 1-0 with a 3.48 ERA in two starts against St. Louis this season. The Brewers have won five of his last six starts and he limited Philadelphia to one run through seven frames of a 13-2 triumph his last time out. 

St. Louis righty Carlos Martinez (3-3, 2.73 ERA) has had plenty of success against Milwaukee throughout his career. He has however struggled big time since returning from the disabled, posting a 7.11 ERA through three starts and issuing 18 walks in 12 2/3 innings in those outings.

The Minnesota Twins look to complete the sweep of this three-game series Thursday afternoon, but I think a motivated Red Sox team will come out ahead of this contest. Rick Porcello (8-3, 3.70 ERA) gets the start for Boston in the series finale, and he's 2-1 behind a solid 3.60 ERA over his last four starts. The 29 year old right-hander is 4-1 in eight road starts on the season and Boston 26-14 away from home overall. 

Kyle Gibson (2-4, 3.27 ERA) will take the ball for the Twins. He's coming off seven innings of one-run ball at Cleveland, but note that he's 0-4 with a 4.78 ERA in seven home starts on the season. 

Boston has lost the first two games of a series four times this season, and won Game 3 each time for our 100% PERFECT angle. Overall, they're 21-6 in their last 27 during Game 3 of a series.

J.A. Happ (8-3, 3.48 ERA) will take the ball for Toronto. He has not allowed a single earned run through his last two starts, covering 12 innings, and he has the current Braves limied to a .222 AVG over 36 at bats. 

Anibal Sanchez (3-0, 1.93 ERA) will take the ball for Atlanta. He is coming off seven shutout innings against San Diego, but the current Blue Jays are hitting a combined .292 over 130 at bats off him.

Detroit right-hander Michael Fulmer (3-5, 4.13 ERA) has given up one run in each of his last two outings and owns a 1.94 ERA through eight day starts on the season.

Seattle southpaw Marco Gonzales (7-3, 3.42 ERA) has posted a 1.41 ERA in his last six starts, but the Bronx Bombers lineup is stacked and they're 14-3 in their last 17 home games vs. a left-handed starter.

Garcia is 3-1 with a 3.62 ERA in eight career starts against Atlanta which hands the ball to rookie right-hander Michael Soroka (2-1, 2.57 ERA) who is coming off his best major league outing, six shutout innings of one-hit ball against the Mets.

The right-hander's 2.43 ERA is the best in the Cards rotation and they've won six of his last eight starts.

GAME OF THE WEEK (MLB)

The Miami Marlins will be looking to complete the sweep of this four-game series Thursday afternoon. They've owned the Giants lately, and I definitely like their chances here with Dan Straily on the mound. 

Straily (2-2, 4.08 ERA) is 4-0 with a stifling 2.43 ERA in five career starts against the Giants and he should be all set for a big outing after going just 3 2/3 innings in a no-decision Saturday against the Padres.

Dereck Rodríguez (1-1, 5.25 ERA) will take the ball for San Francisco for his fourth appearance and third Major League start. The 26 year old has been lit up for nine runs (six earned) on 11 hits and four walks through just six innings on the road. 

Marlins are 6-1 in Straily's last 7 home starts and 7-1 in the last 8 meetings with the Giants.

LATE NIGHT *RUNLINE RIPPER*

The St. Louis Cardinals had won for of five prior to Tuesday's game and right-hander Luke Weaver (3-5, 4.35 ERA) has held the Padres scoreless in two previous career meetings. San Diego southpaw Eric Lauer (2-4, 6.64 ERA) allowed three runs on six hits and seven walks over five innings of a 4-0 loss at Miami his last time out. Lauer served up four homers in 2 1/3 innings of a 9-5 loss to the Cardinals back in May, and we can note that the Cards are 5-1 in their last six home games vs. a left-handed starter.

Brewers righty Jhoulys Chacín (5-1, 3.58 ERA) cruised through three shutout innings before surrendering a run in the fourth and three more in the seventh at Philadelphia Friday. He has done his best work home at Miller Park on the season though, entering this contest with a 2.79 ERA through 29 frames.

The Chicago Cubs have won eight of nine meetings on the season following a 7-2 triumph in the series opener Monday night. 

I like the Brewers to turn the tables with a low-scoring win here in Game 2 of the series with right-hander Chase Anderson (4-5, 4.57 ERA) on the mound. 

Anderson has posted a solid 3.33 ERA in nine career starts against the Cubs (2.08 ERA in two starts on the season) and the Brew Crew is 10-4 in Anderson's last 14 home starts.

Tyler Chatwood (3-4, 3.86 ERA) will take the ball for the Cubs. He has conceded six earned runs covering 12 2/3 innings through his last six starts, but it could easily have been way worse as he's allowed 14 hits and 16 free passes during that stretch. 

Chatwood's 53/56 K/BB ratio on the season is just atrocious, and I think Milwaukee will be able to take advantage of the right-handers' lack of command.

The NY Yankees had won four straight prior to a 2-0 loss to the Mets Sunday night. 

Their winning streak was fueled by solid pitching rather than their bats with each of their last six games going under the total. I expect another low-scoring affair when they host the Washington Nationals Tuesday night. 

Yankee southpaw CC Sabathia (3-1, 3.59 ERA) has compiled a 2.25 ERA in previous meetings with the Nats while the Bronx Bombers will see Washington righty Tanner Roark (3-6, 3.56 ERA) for the first time.

Junior Guerra (3-4, 2.83 ERA) will take the ball for Milwaukee, and he's been dominant in seven games (four starts) against the Cubs (1.80 ERA). Guerra has posted quality starts in four of his last five outings.

Under is 4-0 in Cubs last 4 overall. Under is 10-2 in Guerra's last 12 home starts vs. a team with a winning record.

The New York Yankees are going for the sweep of this Subway Series and deal the reeling Mets a ninth straight defeat when they take Citi Field Sunday night. Odds are the Yankees will come through with a win, but I think it will be of the low-scoring variety. 

Mets' righty Seth Lugo (1-1, 2.04 ERA) will no doubt be looking to make the most of a spot start filling in for Noah Syndergaard, and he threw four shutout innings against the Cubs on May 31 in his only previous start this year. Under is 4-0 in Yankees last 4 games vs. a right-handed starter.

Yankee righty Luis Severino (9-1, 2.20 ERA) is 7-0 with a 1.85 ERA in his last 10 starts andranks fourth in the AL in ERA on the season. The Mets have managed just 11 runs during their eight-game slide, and runs surely won't come easy here against the NYY ace.

The Philadelphia Phillies have had a tough start to the month, losing seven of their first eight games including back-to-back setbacks to the Brew Crew.

I like Milwaukee to keep taking advantage of the reeling Phillies here on Sunday with Brandon Woodruff (2-0, 6.05 ERA) on the mound. Woodruff has bounced between the majors and Triple-A this season, but this looks like a perfect time for him to build some confidence against a Philly side which has scored just 2.8 runs per game over its last eight contests.

Zach Eflin (2-2, 3.74 ERA) will take the ball for the Phillies, and he'll be facing a Brew Crew which has combined for 24 runs and 26 hits in the first two games of the series.

Pirates righty Jameson Taillon (2-4, 4.53 ERA) allowed three runs through 6 1/3 frames in the same contest but has been solid in most of his starts. Under is 9-1-1 in Taillon's last 11 road starts. Under is 10-4 in the last 14 meetings in St. Louis.

The Milwaukee Brewers have won 11 of their last 14 games and own the best record in the National League. The Chicago White Sox meanwhile have lost four straight and own the worst record in the NL, but I think the value is on the home team here at Guaranteed Rate Field Friday night. 

Hector Santiago (1-2, 4.87 ERA) will take the ball for the White Sox. He has struck out 18 batters in his last 20 1/3 innings while posting a respectable 3.54 ERA during that span while Brewers right-hander Chase Anderson (4-3, 4.42 ERA) was lit up by the Mets his last time out, giving up five runs on seven hits through just 3 2/3 frames. Anderson has struggled with the long-ball lately and he has served up five in his last three starts alone.

The New York Mets mustered just four hits in a 5-1 loss to the Mets on Thursday, but I think they'll have more success here Friday night when facing Tyler Chatwood (3-4, 4.10 ERA) on the mound. Chatwood has given up seven runs on 10 hits while walking 11 with 4 Ks in his last two starts, both of which only lasted 2 2/3 inning. Mets right-hander Zack Wheeler has also surrendered plenty of runs of late, but he has an excellent 15/2 K/BB ratio through his last two starts. The value is on the Mets.

The Detroit Tigers are a solid 17-12 home at Comerica Park on the season, and left-hander Blaine Hardy (1-0, 2.70 ERA) is coming off his best outing of the year as he held the Chicago White Sox to one run on three hits in seven innings on May 27. Blue Jays left-hander Jaime Garcia (2-3, 5.52 ERA) limited Philadelphia to one run and five hits in seven innings but he has posted a 7.30 ERA in five road starts on the season. 

Blue Jays are 3-13 in their last 16 games vs. a left-handed starter, and I think the value is on Detroit in this matchup.

The LA Angels look like easy money here Thursday afternoon with Andrew Heaney (2-3, 3.09 ERA) on the mound. The 26 year old southpaw held the Yankees to one run through 6 1/3 frames his last time out. He has allowed two or fewer earned runs in six consecutive starts (1.39 ERA on the month) and will make his first career start against the Tigers who turn to 27 year old left-hander Ryan Carpenter (0-1, 8.31 ERA) who will make his fourth appearance and third start of the season, filling in for injured Francisco Liriano. Carpenter was knocked around for six runs (five earned) through five innings of a 6-0 loss against Cleveland on May 16. 

The Halos are 12-3 SU and 10-5 against the runline as road favorites on the season.

James Paxton (4-1, 3.10 ERA) will take the ball for the Mariners, and while his career numbers against the Rangers are far from impressive, note that he's entering this contest scorching hot with a 1.64 ERA through his last six appearances.

Baltimore is averaging only 3.80 rpg home at Camden Yards on the season and has managed just six runs during a four-game losing streak. Under is 12-1 in Nationals last 13 interleague games.

In addition we can note that White Sox right-hander Reynaldo Lopez (1-3, 2.93 ERA) has allowed just two earned runs on seven hits covering 15 frames in his last two starts. Lopez has given up only three earned runs on 11 hits in 27 1/3 innings in day games this year. Cleveland hands the ball to Corey Kluber who's 2.17 ERA on the season is the 6th best mark across the Major Leagues.

The St. Louis Cardinals hand the ball to Alex Reyes who will make his first start of the season. The Cards No. 1 prospect missed all of 2017 after undergoing Tommy John surgery but posted a 4-1 record behind a 1.57 ERA in 2016 and he has fanned 44 through 23 scoreless innings during four rehab starts ahead of this contest. The Brewers turn to Junior Guerra (3-3, 2.98 ERA). Guerra is a solid pitcher, but I think the Cards will come through for their young pitcher today.

LAD right-hander Kenta Maeda (4-3, 3.38 ERA) has given up just four hits over 14 2/3 scoreless innings through his last two starts. Maeda has this Phillies roster limited to a .195 AVG over 41 at bats.

In addition we can note that Reds right-hander Luis Castillo (4-4, 5.34 ERA) has turned in a 2.83 ERA and 31:9 K:BB ratio so far here in May. Castillo will face a D'Backs team which has really struggled to score runs lately (not taking yesterday's 12-5 win into account). Zack Godley will take the ball for Arizona. The 28 year old righty has walked 10 batters across his last 9 1/3 frames, but he should be able to shut down a team like the Reds. 

Under is 7-0 in Diamondbacks last 7 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400. Under is 6-2 in Reds last 8 overall.

Pirates rookie right-hander Nick Kingham (2-1, 3.44 ERA) has been recalled to make his fourth start of the season in place of the injured Ivan Nova. Kingham has an excellent 21/2 K/BB ratio through his first 18 1/3 innings of work in the big leagues and I expect a solid outing from him here.

The Houston Astros opened this series with a 5-1 triumph Monday afternoon, and I think they'll get the better of the Bronx Bombers here on Tuesday as well.

Houston right-hander Charlie Morton (7-0, 2.04 ERA) is having a terrific season, and he held the Yankees to one run on two hits with 10 Ks in 7 2/3 innings of a 2-1 win on April 30.

The Yankees turn to CC Sabathia (2-1, 3.55 ERA) who has posted a 6.05 ERA in his last four starts. The veteran left-hander last pitched Wednesday in a 12-10 loss at Texas when he allowed seven runs and six hits through 4 1/3 frames.

Astros are 15-5 in their last 20 road games and the road team is 18-6 in Tripp Gibson III's last 24 games behind home plate.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have heated up lately and have won eight of their past 10 games. Here they'll come up against Philly right-hander Vince Velasquez (4-5, 4.18 ERA) who has been lit up for 18 hits and 14 runs through 11 innings in previous meetings with the Dodgers. The Dodgers turn to Brock Stewart (0-0, 3.72 ERA) who will make his second start of the season after holding Colorado to two runs on five hits and a walk through four innings on Tuesday. 

Phillies are 11-23 in Velasquez's last 34 starts. Dodgers are 6-2 in Stewart's last eight starts. Dodgers are 7-1 in the last eight meetings at Dodger Stadium.

GAME OF THE MONTH (MLB)

The Houston Astros closed out last week with back-to-back losses at Cleveland (despite scoring 15 runs), but they had won seven of eight prior to that and I think they look good to get back to their winning ways in the Bronx Monday afternoon. 

Justin Verlander (6-2, 1.08 ERA) will take the ball for the Astros. Verlander was tagged with three earned runs in 5 2/3 innings in his season debut, but the veteran right-hander has held nine of 10 opponents to one or fewer runs since. The Yankees turn to Domingo German (0-2, 5.59 ERA) who has been slapped around to the tune of 12 runs in 8 2/3 frames in his last two starts combined. 

Scoring runs is not an issue for the Astros, and I expect an easy win for the visitors here behind the red hot Justin Verlander and almost equally hot bats. Great price on the Astros and I'm going BIG.

FRIDAY NIGHT *RUNLINE RIPPER*

The Houston Astros have won four straight (including an 8-2 triumph here at Cleveland yesterday) and seven of their last eight. Still, they're a rather big underdog here, despite sending Dallas Keuchel (3-6, 3.43 ERA) to the mound. Sure, the left-hander's win/loss record for the season is not all that impressive, but note that he's 4-1 with a 2.76 ERA in seven career appearances (six starts) against the Tribe. Cleveland turns to Corey Kluber (7-2, 2.36 ERA) who's having an excellent year, but I really think the value is on the visitors in this matchup. 

Astros are 13-3 in their last 16 road games overall and 4-0 in their last four road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Indians are 1-6 in their last seven games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.

The Braves turn to left-hander Luiz Gohara (0-0, 1.29 ERA) who will make his first start of the season after working only seven innings out of the bullpen. The 21 year old will go on the bereavement list following his start so he can visit his ailing mother in Brazil. Will the focus be there tonight? I have my doubts ... We can also note that Phillies are 14-3 in their last 17 home games vs. a left-handed starter.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have lost 12 of their last 13 overall while the Milwaukee Brewers enter this contest on a 9-3 streak, including back-to-back wins against the D'Backs. I think Arizona will be mighty motivated here to avoid the sweep though and it'll have an edge on the mound here with Zack Godley (4-3, 3.78 ERA) taking the ball for the visitors. Godley is 2-0 record and 1.42 ERA in four appearances (two starts) against Milwaukee which turns to Brent Suter (3-3, 4.72 ERA). The 28 year old southpaw will face Arizona for the first time and could be in for a world of hurt if the visitors bats wake up, which I think they will.
