Philadelphia at Cincinnati 7:10 ET Phillies (over) Reds- Philadelphia's Cole Hamels (5-4, 2.88 ERA) may be pitching somewhere else before the end of the season but as of now he is the lone bright spot in the Phillies rotation.

Pittsburgh at Atlanta 7:10 ET Braves over Pirates- The Atlanta Braves who traded away one of baseball best closers in Kimbel are have bullpen trouble as relief has failed them allowing 28 runs in 26 innings in the past 11 games.

Tampa Bay at Seattle 10:10 ET Rays over Mariners- “When you're hot you're hot and when you're not you're not” and that axiom certainly applies here as the Rays have won three straight and five of their last seven and the Mariners have lost six straight (all at home). This should be an excellent pitching dual as Jake Odorizzi (4-5, 2.61 ERA) of Tampa Bay will face-off with J.A. Happ (3-1, 3.70) of Seattle. Odorizzi has limited opponents to a .216 batting average and is 1-1 with a 0.89 ERA in two starts against the Mariners and Happ who has no decisions in his last four starts is 2-2 with a 5.35 ERA in eight appearances against the Rays.

Dodgers 10:10 ET Dodgers over Cardinals- Last Sunday St. Louis starter Carlos Martinez (5-2, 3.13 ERA) stopped the Dodgers cold allowing just one hit in seven strong innings while striking out eight in a 3-1 win over LA.

Brett Anderson (2-3, 3.42) took the loss last Sunday despite surrendering just two runs on five hits in six innings but is 1-0, with a 2.89 ERA in five home starts. As they say 'turn-about-is-fair-play' and I expect the Dodgers to triumph here. Take LOS ANGELES! |

06-05-15 | Detroit Tigers v. Chicago White Sox -118 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 5 m | Show | |
Detroit at Chicago White Sox 8:10 ET White Sox over Tigers- Currently these two clubs are the worst of the worst as Detroit has lost seven in-a-row and Chicago has dropped 11 of their last 17. The desperate Tigers have called up Kyle Ryan (1-0, 3.00 ERA) who picked up a win in relief against Oakland and had one start against the White Sox last August. He will be opposed by the struggling Jose Quintana (2-6, 4.33) who has lost three straight starts and six of his last seven decisions. Quintana could have looked better but the White Sox have scored the second-fewest runs (191) in the majors. He is 4-3 with a 4.30 lifetime ERA against Detroit and the Pale Hose will keep them down once more. Take the WHITE SOX! |

Dodgers 10:10 Dodgers over Cardinals- In a rematch of a game played last Saturday Cardinals Michael Wacha (7-1, 2.27 ERA) will try and rebound from his first loss of the season in a contest where he gave up a season low three hits. His mound opponent that day was the Dodgers Carlos Frias (4-2, 4.29) who did not allow an earned run in seven innings of work. Wacha has been outstanding on the road posting five wins without a loss with a 1.64 ERA limiting opposing hitters to a .209 average. On the flip side Frias is 2-1 at home in three appearances with a ERA of 7.02. Still, with these numbers it will be LOS ANGELES! |

Chicago Cubs at Washington 7:05 ET Nationals over Cubs- These two NL contenders are struggling as they enter this series as they have both lost six of their last 10 and Chicago is winless in their last four series and Washington has dropped five of their last six. The Cubs Jake Arrieta (4-4, 3.18 ERA) has struggled of late posting a 3.99 ERA in May and is winless in his last three starts. Gio Gonzalez (4-2, 4.73) was hit hard last time (literally as he was HBP twice) but has won his last three decisions.

Cleveland at Kansas City 8:10 ET Indians over Royals- The Cleveland Indians look to get to .500 for the first time this season as they look to move to 5-1 on their current road trip and seven of eight on the road overall. Cory Kluber (3-5, 3.53 ERA) started 0-5 for the Tribe but the Cy Young award winner bounced back allowing just five runs in his last four starts while striking out 50 in his last 32 innings of work. Royals starter Jason Vargas (3-2, 5.16) is back off the DL and has yet to return to form as his ERA remains above 5. Kansas City has won two-of-three from the Indians twice already this season and now it's Tribe's turn. Take CLEVELAND! |

06-03-15 | Chicago White Sox -131 v. Texas Rangers | 9-2 | Win | 100 | 13 h 40 m | Show | |
Chicago White Sox at Texas 8:05 ET White Sox over Rangers- I hate playing against 'hot' clubs like the Rangers who have won a season high four straight and have the awaited arrival of Joey Gallo who went 3-for-4 with a homer and four RBI in his MLB debut yesterday. But, tonight he and his teammates may be a little over-matched as Chicago ace Chris Sale (4-2, 3.66 ERA) take the hill and he has 57 strikeouts in his last five starts over 37.2 innings while pitching to a WHIP of 0.88. His mound opponent Nick Martinez (4-1, 2.03) was tagged with his first loss of the year last time out and will have difficulty keeping up with Sale. Take WHITE SOX! |

Pittsburgh at San Francisco 3:35 ET Pirates over Giants- Like ships passing in the night these two clubs are currently headed in the opposite direction as the Giants have now dropped four in-a-row while the Pirates have won 10 of their last 12. San Francisco is looking to save face before they head to their meetings at the White House tomorrow as they are honored as World Series Champions. Yes World Series Champions now underdogs at home against a club that has defeated them in 12 of their last 17 regular season contests. Francisco Liriano (2-4, 3.47 ERA) has been outstanding on the road striking out 75 batters in 59.2 innings with a 1.57 ERA this season. Tim Hudson (3-4, 4.62) gets the start for 6-8 with a 3.23 ERA in 15 career starts against Pittsburgh including going 0-2 in two starts last season. Take the PIRATES! |

New York Mets at San Diego 10:10 ET Mets over Padres- Tied for first place in the East the Mets look to improve on their 8-15 road record as they continue their series in San Diego where the Padres are 2-3 on their home stand and 6-11 in their last 17. The fact that New York opened the favorite out of Las Vegas is a testament to their young phnom Noah Syndergaard (2-2, 1.82 ERA) who after his first big-league start has allowed just one walk is his last 19.1 innings covering his last three starts. Ian Kennedy (2-5, 7.15) who a just a few short seasons ago was on of the top pitchers in baseball has struggled this year has surrendered 12 homers in his last 39 innings. Take the METS! |

Tampa Bay at L.A. Angels 10:05 ET Rays over Angels- It was been said that pitching is 90% of baseball and looking at this 'price' as Tampa Bay is favored on the road against a team that is hot having won five straight backs up that axiom. Rays starter Chris Archer (5-4, 2.12 ERA) has allowed one run or fewer in seven of his 11 starts this season including his last three starts while his lifetime numbers against Los Angeles has him 3-1 with a 3.63 ERA in four starts. What makes this 'number' even more eye-brow rising is that Angels starter C.J. Wilson (3-3, 3.18) has permitted two runs or fewer in seven of his 10 starts and has lost just once in his last seven starts. Trends say...TAMPA BAY! |

06-02-15 | Cleveland Indians -125 v. Kansas City Royals | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 12 h 47 m | Show |
Cleveland at Kansas City 8:10 ET Indians over Royals- The Indians who started slow are now playing hot and have won six of their last seven road games and are now favored at Kansas City which is a bit of a surprise. I saw the Royals open the favorite and this move came from 'within' and has nothing to do with money wagered. Cleveland is on a 10-3 surge but it still seems strange that they are the favorite at Kansas City where they are 17-7 at home. Carlos Carrasco (6-4, 4.24 ERA) is among the AL leaders in strike out and is averaging 10.4 K's per nine innings as he has 37 punch-outs in his last five starts (three wins) covering 35.6 innings. The Royals Jeremy Guthrie (4-3, 6.70) is off his worst career showing surrendering 11 runs in 1.2 innings against the Yankees and owns a lifetime 6.14 ERA against the Indians. Take CLEVELAND! |

Alex Wood (3-2, 3.50 ERA) starts for the Braves and has pitched well against the D'Backs going 0-1 with a 2.00 ERA in four appearances. Arizona will start Archie Bradley (2-2, 5.28) who two of his first four starts in April but hasn't won since being hit in the face with a line drive.

Matt Shoemaker (3-4, 5.44) for the Angles is on the opposite side of the ledger as he has just on victory in his last seven starts but pitched seven innings of shutout ball his last time out. In his lone career start against Detroit Shoemaker pitched seven shutout innings last July. Look for a turn-around here as the Angles get it done. Take LOS ANGELES! |

New York Yankees at Oakland 4:10 ET A's over Yankees- Like this series 'we' have split the first two games having had the A's both nights. From out of the bullpen Adam Warren (3-3, 3.91 ERA) has gone a great job for New York in Tanaka's absence. His mound opponent for Sunday is Jesse Chavez who despite his record (1-5, 2.44) has itched very well for Oakland receiving little support in the field and at the plate but has been outstanding against the Yankees going 3-0 with a 2.29 ERA in four appearances. With yesterday's win the Yankees have now won five of their last 17 contests and still are struggling. Take OAKLAND! |

Pittsburgh at San Diego 10:10 ET Padres over Pirates- I hate to do this (come back with a team that beat me the night before) as late inning heroics defeated me last night as San Diego came-from-behind with a walk-off grand slam in the ninth. Pittsburgh had won seven straight entering that fateful inning and like many other clubs that have been deflated (Sorry Tom) after a winning streak in broken they just won't be 'right' tonight. San Diego starter Tyson Ross (2-4, 3.84 ERA) has not allowed more then three runs in nine of his 10 starts and is averaging one strikeout per inning pitched. Pittsburgh is just 10-14 on the road and will fall here once again. Take the PADRES! |

Chicago meanwhile has dropped three of four but this is not the sane Cubs team that Volquez dominated in the past with a 2.90 lifetime ERA as the addition of Kris Bryant and monster changes have made them much more formidable.

They two Las Vegas boys who played against each other in high school the Nationals Bryce Harper and Cubs Kris Bryant both went deep yesterday and will be tested today against the opposition's best starters. Max Scherzter (5-3, 1.67) who has recorded quality starts in eight of nine outings has no career decisions against the Cubs as he was in the AL most of his tenure in the bigs while Lester is 2-0 with a 3.32 ERA against Washington.

Detroit has now lost three straight and six of their last nine games. The best thing they have going is David Price (3-1, 3.32 ERA) as they have been winners in each of his last five starts. He is 2-2 with a 3.69 ERA in seven career starts against Oakland. The A's will start Jesse Chavez (1-4, 2.89) who has been a victim of poor support but their starters have a 2.38 ERA over their last 14 games. Take OAKLAND! |

Kansas City at New York Yankees 7:05 ET Yankees over Royals- They're back! Speed on the bases and power at the plate, break up the Yankees! All it took was a 1960's performance by the Bronx Bombers to have NYC buzzing about the future of baseball at Yankee Stadium. Wait, let me think New York has now won two of their last 12 games as but blasted five home runs Monday as every starter had at least one hit. Tonight Kansas City will start Jason Vargas (3-1, 5.26 ERA) who is off the disabled list to replace Danny Duffy who went on to the disabled list and that is not good news for the Royals. Vargas is 0-4 with a 6.75 ERA in eight career appearances against the Yankees while New York will start Adam Warren (2-3, 4.26) who has been a victim of weak support. Warren has allowed the Royals one run in 6 2/3 innings. Take the YANKEES! |

Detroit at Oakland 4:05 ET A's over Tigers- Surprisingly at this point of the season the Oakland A's have the worst record in baseball but have their last two after losing 14 of 16. Detroit has not been setting the world on fire either as they have lost their last two and five of eight and will start Shane Greene (4-2, 4.05 ERA) who has allowed left-handed batters to hit .314 against him while recording an .842 OPS. Jesse Hahn (1-4, 4.43) has dropped his last three decisions in his last five starts gets his first lifetime start against the Tigers. Returning home with help the A's here. Take OAKLAND! |

San Francisco leads the NL in batting average (.272) and has Tom Lincecum (4-2, 2.08 ERA) who has not had an ERA lower then 4.37 since 2011 is on the mound and is 4-3 lifetime against Milwaukee. The Brewers will start Kyle Lohse (3-4, 5.53) is 2-0 with a 3.38 ERA in May after a terrible start and is 3-3 lifetime against the Giants including 1-1 while pitching for St. Louis in the 2012 NLCS.

Kansas City at New York Yankees 1:05 ET Yankees over Royals- The Yankees are in the mist of their worst streak since 1995 having lost 10 of their last 11 as not only have their bats failed but their pitching has completely fallen apart. This afternoon they start fireballing Nathan Eovaldi (3-1, 4.73 ERA) who has thrown well despite control issues who is off his shortest outing of the season. Kansas City will start Jeremy Guthrie (4-2, 4.75) who is off his best start of the year but has had problems against New York going 5-10 with a 4.92 ERA in 19 lifetime appearances. Look for the Yankees to get back in the win column here. Take NEW YORK! |

Minnesota at Chicago White Sox 2:10 ET While Sox over Twins- Minnesota is 14-6 in May after starting the season 1-6 and are seeking their seventh win in their last 10 after beating Chris Sale Saturday. Chicago has followed a six-game winning streak by losing four of their last five but will have Jose Quintana (2-4, 4.12 ERA)off his best outing of the year losing the Cleveland when surrendering only two runs in eight innings. He has allowed two runs or fewer in each of his last five starts. Take the WHITE SOX! |

Milwaukee at Atlanta 1:35 ET Brewers over Braves- This one looks a little out of place as the 16-27 Brewers are favored on the road against the 20-21 Atlanta Braves. Milwaukee is just 8-12 on the road and are off a Saturday loss against the Braves and they are just 11-16 in their last 37 road games. When you note that the Brewers are just 3-10 in Jimmy Nelson's last 13 starts it really makes me scratch my head. This one comes up Milwaukee as I see it. Take the BREWERS! |

Oakland at Tampa Bay 1:10 ET A's over Rays- Oakland who own the worst record in baseball (15-30) will send Sonny Gray (4-2, 1.92 ERA) to the hill with the second best ERA in the American League as he has help opponents to two earned runs or less in six of his nine starts. Yesterday's win for Oakland was only their third in their last 17 contests as they look to turn things around. Gray is 1-1 with a 3.32 ERA against the AL Champs s they try to improve on their 2-13 record in one-run games. Take the ATHLETICS! |

L.A. Angels at Boston 7:15 ET Red Sox over Angels- It appears that all the Angels needed to straighten out their woes was a trip to the American League East where they have won five of eight and last night had their best scoring night in over a month. Boston continues to struggle with their pitching staff (already fired their pitching coach) and will turn to a knuckleballer Steven Wright (1-1, 4.02 ERA) to stem the tide. Look for the Red Sox to bounce back here. Take BOSTON! |

Baltimore at Miami 7:15 ET Marlins over Orioles- Difficult to believe that the Marlins losers of eight straight can be favored they way they are playing but they are here. Dan Jennings is now 0-5 since stepping out of the front office onto the field to become Miami's manager and a number of his moves and lack of moves have come into question. All of the Marlins eight losses have come at home where no one comes to the games anyway but will have Dan Haren (4-2, 3.47 ERA) starting against the Orioles Mike Wright (1-0, 0.00) who was called up from Triple-A to make this start. Somehow, behind Haren who is 5-4 with a 3.87 ERA against Baltimore the Marlins finally get a win. Take MIAMI! |

New York Mets at Pittsburgh 4:05 ET Pirates over Mets- Matt Harvey (5-1, 1.98 ERA) has been over-powering his last three starts after opening the season with five straight wins but has the unfortunate problem of pitching for a team that has difficulty scoring runs. Harvey has not allowed a run in three of his last four starts and enters this contest with 16 straight scoreless innings but has no wins to show for his efforts. A.J. Burnett (3-1, 1.38) who lost 18 games last year has allowed two runs or less in all eight of his starts. New York has lost its last five road games while Pittsburgh has won 10 of the past 14 meetings. Take the PIRATES! |

Chicago at Arizona 9:40 ET Cubs over Diamondbacks- Chicago's young studs are starting to pay dividends as both Kris Bryant and Addison Russell his homers in yesterday's 3-0 win over the Padres. Arizona has won five in-a-row and are off a four-game sweep at Miami against the Marlins who is a total funk. The Diamondbacks have won five straight and 12 of 17 at home against the Cubs but still are a heavy underdog. Jon Lester (4-2, 3.70 ERA) is 4-0 with a 1.67 ERA in May and will continue his fine hurling tonight. Take the CUBS! |

The White Sox lost the last three of a four-game home series against the Indians to drop their first home series of the season. Phil Hughes (3-4, 4.76 ERA) is 4-5 with a 3.12 ERA in 16 career appearances against the White Sox while Chicago's starter Jeff Samardzija (3-2, 4.58) is 1-1 lifetime against the Twins.

New York Mets at Pittsburgh 7:05 ET Pirates over Mets- With the fanfare and attention that Mets starter Noah Syndergaard (1-1, 3.18 ERA) is getting from the media I took note that the price of this game is as high as it is. (I expect the number to drop) New York has struggled on the road winning just seven of 19 and that could be part of it as well as their weak hitting line-up. Pittsburgh has lost their last two games to drop to a season low four game under .500 as they have lost seven of their last eight. Gerrit Cole (5-2, 2.40) has been the Pirates ace with six quality starts in seven appearances. Although 0-2 against the Mets Cole gets the win here. Take PITTSBURGH! |

The Angels did lose one thing yesterday as Albert Pujols was hit by a pitch and will be missing tonight. R.A. Dickey (1-5, 5.76 ERA) have been pounded his last two outings but should settle in against the Angels tonight. Take the BLUE JAYS! |

Philadelphia at Colorado 3:10 ET Rockies over Phillies- This one falls into the 'don't make sense' category as the lowly Rockies come up an inflated favorite over the surging Phillies who have won seven of their last eight contests. Prior to their last eight games Philadelphia averaged just 2.8 runs per games on the season. Colorado meanwhile has lost seven of their last eight at home and to be such a prohibited favorite doesn't pass the eye test. Pitching has aided the Phillies cause as they an ERA of 1.43 in their last eight games. That will change in Colorado's thin air this afternoon. Take the ROCKIES! |

St. Louis at New York Mets 1:10 ET Mets over Cardinals- The Mets have lost seven of their last 10 and their lead in the NL East not because of pitching but because their bats have not provided much support for any of their starters. Jacob deGrom (3-3, 3.21 ERA) is 4-1 at home with an ERA of 1.42 but will be up against Jamie Garcia (3-1, 4.12) who is 2-0 with a 0.96 ERA in four career starts against the Mets.

L.A. Dodgers at San Francisco 10:15 ET Dodgers over Giants- My eyebrows were lifted when I saw the Dodgers come up the favorite against Tom Lincecum (3-2, 2.43 ERA) who is pitching well in San Francisco. When I saw Los Angeles was starting Brett Anderson (2-1, 3.50) who is not a household name I became even more intrigued. Consider that the Giants are 4-0 against the Dodgers in their last four at home it seems even more skeptical to me that they are an underdog. Think about it Anderson is 0-3 with a 6.10 ERA in five starts against San Francisco. I smell a rat...Take the DODGERS! |

Colon is undefeated against the Cardinals 4-0 with a 2.77 ERA in six career starts while St. Louis will start Carlos Martinez (3-2, 4.73) who has an ERA of 6.00 in his last five starts.

Washington is hitting the long ball and no one more than Bryce Harper who has 10 homers in his last 12 games to propel the Nat's surge. Meanwhile, the Yankees are also in a tie for the top spot with the Rays after dropping six in their last seven games. Ryan Zimmerman (3-2, 3.66 ERA) is 2-0 in his last five starts and the Nationals are now 11-6 at home and has no career decisions against New York. Here, it is WASHINGTON! |

Oakland at Houston 8:10 ET A's over Astros- Back on Monday April 13 I saw these two clubs go at it in Houston as Oakland crushed the Astros and my thought were that the A's were the far superior team and that the young Astros had a lone way to go. Well, here we are five weeks later with Houston posting the best record in the AL at 25-14 and the A's bringing up the bottom in the AL at 14-26. Oakland halted a four-game losings streak last night and will have one of baseball's best on the mound in Sonny Gray (4-1, 1.61 ERA) who is 2-1 with a 2.05 ERA in three career starts against Houston.

Tampa Bay at Atlanta 7:10 ET Rays over Braves- At first glance one is led to believe that Tampa Bay will really have their work cut out for them as they average just four runs per games. The Rays who's staff ERA is just 2.84 in their last 26 games will have Erasmo Ramirez (1-1, 6.66 ERA) to the hill and he has settled down after a rocky start to the season. He had allowed 15 earned runs in his first two appearances but has allowed just three runs in his last 19 innings since that point. Atlanta starter Mike Foltynewicz (2-0, 4.24) has allowed 19 hits and 10 walks in his 17 innings of work and that just doesn't get it done. Take TAMPA BAY! |

The Angels who had won five in-a-row and eight of 10 will send another lefty in Hector Santiago (2-2, 2.41 ERA) into Rogers Centre to face the Blue Jays power hitting right handed batters. The Blue Jays will counter with Aaron Sanchez (3-3, 4.26) who is off his best outing of the season but he must gain better control and cut down on his walks to be successful. Still, back home the Jays are the side. Take TORONTO! |

Milwaukee at Detroit 7:10 ET Brewers over Tigers- The Brewers who have only 13 wins in their first 38 games have already lost their manager and have troubles scoring runs losing four of their last five with two runs or less. Of course Milwaukee was up against one of the best young pitching staffs in baseball in the New York Mets but did defeated their winningest hurler in Bartolo Colon. They will be sending hard throwing Mike Fiers (1-4, 5.00 ERA) who not only has 37 strikeouts in 25.1 innings but has allowed fewer than three earned runs in three of his last four outings.

Boston at Seattle 4:10 ET Mariners over Red Sox- This seems like an awfully high price against a team like Boston that has won five of its last seven since their 'players only' team meeting. The Red Sox just handed Felix Hernandez his first loss of the season and now they are a heavy underdog against 'legend' James Paxton (1-2,4.31 ERA) who is 6-2 with an ERA of 2.61 at Safeco Field.

Jeremry Guthrie (2-2, 5.70 ERA) who broke a four-start winless steak last time out is 5-4 with a 3.40 lifetime against Texas has been inconsistent at best. Ross Detwiler (0-4, 7.22) who has allowed seven homer in six starts has been worse yet to post a win this season, but is off his best start of the year allowing Houston only one run in seven innings without a decision.

Good luck or bad Mariners starter Taijuan Walker (1-3, 8.13) has just been terrible in inter-league play as he is 0-2 with a 7.00 ERA with 10 walks in nine innings. Walker has been better at home allowing only four runs in over 10 innings and with San Diego at0-4 in inter-league play I'll take the home team. Take SEATTLE! |

St. Louis at Cleveland 6:10 ET Indians over Cardinals- Boy, I hate playing against the Cardinals as they are probably the soundest team fundamentally in baseball and they are so tough to beat. Cleveland has dropped 11 of their last 16 and it falls for the most part on their pitching staff. 2014 Cy Young award winner Corey Kluber (0-5, 5.04 ERA) has yet to win a game and it isn't even as though he is pitching in hard luck, he's just getting shelled! The Indians are 0-7 in his starts this season and is 0-2 surrendering a .342 batting average to opponents in his three home starts. This is his first time facing St. Louis and that bring the advantage to his side. Take CLEVELAND! |

New York Yankees at Tampa Bay 7:10 ET Rays over Yankees- To me, the Yankees are big biggest surprise in baseball as their line-up has seven starters hitting .240 or less but they have produced the long ball along with great pitching to lead the AL East. Tonight they will face one of the AL's young hard throwers in Chris Archer (3-4, 2.59 ERA) who has 40 strike outs in his last five starts over 29 innings. He has allowed only one home run over that span and although New York will start another hard thrower in Nathan Eovaldi (3-0, 3.97) he doesn't have the control yet and has allowed five homers in his last five starts. Tampa Bay is 7-3 in their last 10 home games and will get it done here tonight. Take the RAYS! |
