Arrieta has gone 3-3 with a 2.33 ERA in 11 career starts against the Mets, including 1-2 with a 2.96 ERA in four starts here at Citi Field. Arrieta beat the Mets 3-2 earlier in the year, allowing just two ERs on six hits in 8.0 innings work in the process. The Phillies have been a good offensive team so far as they come in ranked 5th in the league in scoring, putting up 5.52 rpg, while also ranking 12th in hitting at .257 and 14th in homers with 29. On the mound, they have been average as they come in ranked 15th in the league in ERA at 4.46, while also ranking 21st in WHIP at 1.41 and 16th in Ks with 191.

Musgrove was outstanding once again in his latest effort, holding the Tigers to only two runs in seven innings, resulting in a no-decision in a 5-3 Pirates victory. The fourth-year right-hander did not allow a single run in his first three outings, and he enters this one with a dazzling 0.81 ERA and a 0.76 WHIP paired with a 1-1 record in 22.1 innings pitched. He squandered eight runs (seven earned) in 10 innings against the D-Backs in 2018, and he has conceded a total of eight runs in 11.1 career innings against Arizona.

MLB 75 DIME GAME A'S The Blue Jays were feisty enough to pull off a surprise series win on the road against the Twins, but they’ll have to take things up a notch if they’re expecting a repeat performance at Oakland Coliseum. Despite their inconsistent play, the A’s still remain one of the more well-rounded teams in the league. Perhaps their only problem is they do everything well and nothing spectacular. That’s all fine and dandy when playing at home against a team like the Blue Jays. The momentum carried by Toronto is also tethered to the fact that they rank among the worst run-scoring teams in the league. That’s typically a bad sign when going on the road against a top-15 batting team like the A’s. There is also the fact that the A’s got a day off, and they’ll be coming into this game well-rested and ready to go. Marcus Stroman (1.99 ERA) has been solid for the Blue Jays on the mound, but he hasn’t had much success when facing against the Athletics—10.05 ERA, 26 hits, 16 earned runs and three homers in 14.1 innings. The Blue Jays might steal a game in this series, but Game 1 won’t be it. Give me the A’s in the series opener.

MLB 75 DIME GAME ROYALS +130 The Royals came into Sunday’s game against the White Sox with a chance to pull off a three-game sweep. There were broomsticks at the stadium but no sweeping, thanks to White Sox pitcher Lucas Giolito. Call it kryptonite, allergies or just plum bad luck why Giolito equates to bad things happening for the Royals. That trend continued in Game 3 of their series finale, when he retired 19 straight batters after walking second baseman Whit Merrifield. He ended the game with eight strikeouts, while allowing three hits and two runs over the course of 6.2 innings on the mound. The Royals pull the upset here.

MLB 75 DIME GAME REDS +108 Anthony DeSclafani will take the hill for the first time of the year in this contest. DeSclafani has talent, however, consistency has been an issue for the young right-hander. He recorded a weak 4.93 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP paired with a 7-8 record in 21 starts last season. The four-year veteran had some issues against Milwaukee last year, serving up 12 runs in 18 innings, and he holds a 3-3 record with a 4.91 ERA in 44 career innings against Milwaukee. Ryan Braun is 3 for 16 against DeSclafani, while Travis Shaw is 2 for 7, and Jesus Aguilar is 3 for 9. The Brewers will counter with Chacin who has been a hit and miss. Take the Reds here.

The Astros have gone 12-7 against the Rangers in each of the last two seasons. As for this pitching matchup, Peacock vs. a rusty Smyly favors the visitors. Houston is 42-20 in its last 62 series openers, 4-1 in Peacock’s last five starts, and 17-4 in its last 21 on the road against Texas.

MLB 75 DIME GAME CUBS -123 The Cubs were on the verge of putting the Rangers in a two-game hole before the seventh and eighth-inning comeback. However, they were shut down on offense for the last five innings of the game after building the initial 6-3 lead. It was a pretty remarkable turnaround performance for the Rangers after dropping the season-opener in lopsided fashion. Can they duplicate that sort of magic in a rematch? It’s hard to believe the Cubs will go completely silent for a five-inning stretch like that again, particularly after they hit the ball so well in Game 1. They’ll show up on Sunday and find a way to close out the game. Hamels has looked like a completely different pitcher with the Cubs (2.36 ERA) as opposed to when he was still playing with the Rangers (4.72 ERA). The mound at Globe Park will be like home away from home in his return, and he’ll make good on what Darvish tried to deliver on Saturday. The bats won’t be nearly as hot for the Rangers in the series finale. I like the Cubs in this game.

A 9-9 record for a guy who is first in the NL in ERA 1.77, second in strikeouts 259, second in innings pitched 209, and second in WHIP 0.94, is very disappointing. DeGrom has allowed just 13 runs over his last 10 games and the Mets are just 5-5 over that span. It’s guys like Michael Conforto, who is the team leader in home runs 27 and RBI 80, that need to step up. But Conforto has really struggled against Braves pitching this season.

Neither team has a clear bullpen advantage either. The offense of Boston is just too much for Cleveland. Martinez, Betts, Bogaerts, and the rest of the lineup are impossible to handle at their home park without a gem of a start on the mound.

Godley has been absolutely incredible in his last three starts. This Padres team that has trouble scoring against the average pitcher will look like a wounded gazelle to Godley right now. Richards looked great in his last start but he just can’t get wins. That one great start is not enough to warrant an upset pick over Godley and the Diamondbacks.

If Acuna has a setback and can’t play, the Rockies chances increase dramatically, but with Newcomb on the mound, Atlanta still has the edge
