Jose Berrios was once good. Then he got bad. Now he’s good again especially when he’s pitching in Toronto where he’s 4-1 with a 2.48 ERA this season. The Blue Jays have won 87.5 percent of Berrios’ home starts since 2021 going 21-3. I like Berrios and Toronto to beat the reeling Red Sox. Boston […]
Padres at Pirates Under 8 This total is too high in a pitching matchup of Blake Snell versus Mitch Keller. Snell has shown his former Cy Young Award winning ability during his last five starts with a 0.29 ERA. The Pirates broke through for nine runs against the Padres and their overmatched emergency fill-in starter, […]
Rays minus 1 1/2 runs minus $1.25 (run line) hosting Royals I’m not going to lay nearly $3.00 to back the Rays at home against the Royals. But I want Tampa Bay involvement with Jordan Lyles on the hill for Kansas City. So it’s laying 1 1/2 runs on the run line. Tampa Bay has […]
A’s plus 1 1/2 runs plus $1.30 (run line) at Blue Jays You have to go back to the 2003 Tigers to find a team with a worse record after 77 games than the A’s. Oakland is 19-58 and has lost eight in a row. So why the heck get involved with them? Value and […]
Sky plus 3 hosting Mystics Chicago not only has short revenge for a 77-69 road loss to Washington this past Sunday, but also double revenge. The Mystics nipped Chicago, 71-69, on May 29 at Chicago. Washington i s 7-4. I find that record deceiving, though. The Mystics rank last in scoring and field goal percentage. […]
Diamondbacks at Brewers Under 8 1/2 (Early Start) I don’t see these teams reaching nine runs in this early start get-away game with a pitching matchup of Zac Gallen versus Julio Teheran. Gallen has cemented his status as one of the top pitchers in the National League. He’s 8-2 with a 2.96 ERA. Gallen has a […]
