Taking the MARINERS here. Seattle has reeled off 8 wins the last 10 games and the Astros are asking themselves what the heck is going on here. Walker looks like he has figured things out and could be on his way to a very good year. 29Ks in 30 innings with a tidy 1.09 WHIP vs a team that swings and misses like nobody else. Fister is a nice soft tossing innings filler, but I think Seattle gets about 5 off him here tonight in this park. 4* Money Maker SEATTLE MARINERS

Taking the RANGERS here. Saw this line opened around 155 and now sitting around the 130 mark. Zimmerman has been absolutely lights out with a blistering .55 ERA on the year. But you beat who is in front of you. You beat 3 teams a combined 23 games under .500 and 2 more teams a combined 3 games over .500. Texas has dropped 3 straight and are coming off a 12-2 beat down. I expect the Rangers to show some Texas sized pride tonight and get a win. 4* Money Maker TEXAS RANGERS

* real fast - so we have been up and down lately with bases. I am sticking to what I know that has profited us in the past. We aren't taking big names and heavy faves. We take a lot of dogs and will have many split days only making a few dollars. It is a long season, with a lot of action. I always suggest and tell you my monthly or season best is best value rather than buying daily. Money Management in everything we do * Taking the TWINS here. I do like Fiers. I thought this is a nice add for the 'Stros. But I just think that Minny is ready to put together something here. Hughes had logged 4 straight quality starts before his last game. Again. It isn't sexy, but he puts us in a spot to win games. Houston has under achieved so far and they have no right laying this kind of number right now. 4* Money Maker MINNESOTA TWINS

Taking the MARINERS here. Have to back Felix at this price even it looks too good to be true. Fact is that bullpens have been killing me lately. But at least here I get a guy who will give at least 7, possible 8 innings of 1 run or less ball. Hernandez has been a beast this year with a .165 BA against, 1.38 ERA and 28 Ks in 32 innings, with just 19 hits allowed. It is tough to sweep teams, especially on the road. But Seattle is hitting the ball and even facing a young left, I think they can scrape something together here. Hernandez struck out 10 A's back on April 10 giving up 3 hits in 7 innings in a game won by Oakland in extra innings. 3-1 M's seems about right this afternoon. 4* Money Maker SEATTLE MARINERS

A 1.69 ERA in 3 starts shows that. I would like to see him get past a 6th inning, but if he will have us in the game regardless. 4* Money Maker LAA ANGELS

Taking the WHITE SOX here. We were ambushed last night by the Angels, but that is why I think we get a bounce back performance here from Chicago. Latos has been solid so far. I think that he hasn't been healthy in some time which contributed to his poor pitching in the past. And I will be honest by saying I have always liked him going back to his Padres and then Reds days. The guy is a totally different pitcher right now. And I have said before that I think this Angels team is looking at a sub 500 season. White Sox bats break out tonight. 4* Money Maker CHICAGO WHITE SOX

Taking the WHITE SOX here. Have to say, I was down on the Angels and high on Chicago to start with their posted win totals. I like Rodon. Last year he had a 1.20 ERA vs Halos in 2 starts. In his two road starts this season, all he has done is K 12 in 13 innings with a 1.38 ERA. I think CWS gets to Santiago and we see a nice 4-1 win tonight. On a side note, I have been keeping on an eye on White Sox totals and the strong pitching and spotty bats have contributed to a nice Under run. 4* Money Maker CHICAGO WHITE SOX

Taking the MARINERS here. Have to back King Felix here. Guy has been absolutely dominate sporting a .69 ERA and WHIP of .85 in his first two win-less starts. Mariners seem to be swinging the bat on the heels of last night game pounding out 12 hits. CC looked fine in his return to the mound. I love playing my home dogs on the bases. But in this spot, the way Felix has looked and the fact that CC has been, well, the way he has looked the last 3 years. Which hasn't been that sharp. Give me the M's. 4* Money Maker SEATTLE MARINERS

Taking the ROYALS here. Sign me up for the defending champs, on a tidy 3 game win streak against a struggling Oakland team. They are 1-6 at home, losers of 3 straight. Rich Hill? Go check out that guy's career. And I don't mean that as a knock, because Lord knows I don't have talent to pitch 12 years in MLB. But the stats show me that a gritty team like KC is going to do what it does. Win. Win when for the last 2 years people said not a chance. Just can't see the A's slowing things down here. 4* Money Maker KC ROYALS

Taking the WHITE SOX here. We have cashed already with Sale and will the streaking pale hose here on the road. Line is short when you see the pitching match-up names, but Tampa is 5-1 last 6 vs Chicago and 4-1 last 5 when facing Sale. For me though, this is a different Rays team. Not much offense for them scoring 1 run last 2 games facing a pair of strike out guys in Carrasco and Salazar of the Indians. Sale fits that bill also. 4* Money Maker CHICAGO WHITE SOX

Taking the ORIOLES here. I will be fading away on Buchholz all year long. We did it in his first game, and will do it here. Not impressed at all with this guy. His home numbers are what they are. A 3.58 ERA last year with a BA Against of .298 1.39 WHIP. 2014 3-7 6.64 .302 1.53. He has had 2 really good years. 2013 and 2010. They are clearly in the past and Clay is very hittable. Orioles still undefeated and send an unproven starter to the mound tonight. Still feel that Baltimore bats will put up enough runs to get us another underdog winner. 4* Money Maker BALTIMORE ORIOLES

Taking the BLUE JAYS here. This is a game that I should probably be upping our wagers and playing for more units. But I am a creature of habit and can't justify, even hitting 64% so far, not going to change my methods. I like Sanchez. Stroman might get more press, but this kid is my AL Cy Young sleeper. Laugh if you will, but like my NL sleeper Syndergaard, this guy is talented. I won't be shocked when he wins 17-20 games this year and neither should you. Living in NYC area, Tanaka is one pitch away from Tommy John surgery. Shame since he looked awesome when he first arrived. But the guy is not the same pitcher. The old bats of the Bombers have and early extra day of rest with a PPD under their belts. Don't think that matters a week into the season though. Jays can rake with anyone and do it better than most. Jays 6-2 last 8 in the series and I expect that to continue tonight. 4* Money Maker TORONTO BLUE JAYS

Taking the RANGERS here. Here is a nickels worth of free advice. Weaver is done. Guy can barely register 90 on the gun. He is a soft tosser with absolute zero movement. It would be probably be to fade him and go over in most of his starts. 4* Money Maker TEXAS RANGERS

Taking the REDS here. I thought that Cincy would be brutal this year. But every year we have a team that people are down on, jump out to a fast start. Well 3-1 Cincy fits that mold. Pirates are a perfect 4-0 atop the NL Central. But give me the home pups here. Cole, as great as he is. And I think the guy is a stud top line ace, has struggled vs the Reds. 0-4 5.23 ERA career and 0-3 5.95 last year vs Cincinnati. The young Iglesias is showing the skills he flashed briefly last year. Striking out 7 in 6 innings in his opening day start. 4* CINCINNATI REDS

Taking the INDIANS here. Lost with Kluber and these guys yesterday. Doesn't matter. Yesterday, we had maybe a draw on the hill with a pair of Cy Young winners on the hill. Tonight, we have a future winner on our side. Carrasco is a beast who throws heat and misses bats. Just what I like early in the year, and especially off a loss. 4* Money Maker CLEVELAND INDIANS

Taking the MARLINS here. So, I had a loser the on Sunday with Tampa getting a short number from the Jays. But I look at this game and really want to make this a bigger play. We can all agree, the public will be like, Justin Verlander laying what to Miami. Hey, weren't they the Florida Marlins? Chen isn't sexy, but he is a solid performer. I think we have the better line-up here. I like the Marlins bunch to be a surprise team this year. 4* Money Maker MIAMI MARLINS

Taking the METS here. Off a sloppy game Sunday night, we will grab 'Thor' and the short number. This kid is my Cy Young dark horse. People talk about 2 other guys on this staff, but I think this guy looks fantastic. Ageless Chris Young didn't have a good spring and I can't see him 'flipping' the proverbial switch here vs a Mets team, who, let's face it. They are desperate for a win for this Royals team. 4* Money Maker NY METS

Taking the INDIANS here. I like this club. I think they can be the surprise of the league much like the Mets last year. This is a tough rotation and has a Cy Young winner on the hill here in Kluber. Price is right most of the time, but I look for the home team to get it done here. Sox 2-6 last 8 overall vs Tribe and have lost 6 straight here at Progressive. 4* Money Maker CLEVELAND INDIANS

Taking the ASTROS here. We cashed with these guys in the wild-card right here with Keuchel and will do it again. Look.

Yanks still the same old lineup who had trouble with this guy 6 months ago. 4* Money Maker HOUSTON ASTROS
