Arizona at Kansas City 8:10 ET Royals over D'backs- Wait a second, in his last three starts Zac Gallen (9-2, 2.78 ERA) has gone 21.1 innings surrendering nine hits and NO earned runs and now he's favored on the road. He has given up 93 hits in 133 innings. Kansas City will send Brady Singer (4-9, 3.27) to the hill and he has won 3-of-his-last-4 decisions. After yesterday's 'Megabucks' win the Diamondbacks are 9-3 in their last 12 games at Kansas City but, they are 1-6 after scoring six or more runs the game before and the Royals are 6-2 in their last eight games against right-handed starters.

Toronto at Boston 7:10 ET Blue Jays/Red Sox (OVER)- Boston will start Right-hander Brayan Bello (0-3, 8.47 ERA) who will make his return from a Triple-A rehab assignment to start Wednesday. The Red Sox are 16-33 against American League East opponents and 3-11 against the Jays this season. On July 24, Bello allowed five runs on nine hits in four innings against Toronto.

Chicago White Sox at Baltimore 7:05 ET White Sox over Orioles- After posting three straight wins Lucas Giolito (9-6, 5.34 ERA) was bombed to high heaven by Houston giving up eight hits and seven earned runs in 3.1 innings. That's happened way too many times as he has surrendered 134 hits in just 116 innings. Baltimore will start Spenser Watkins (4-3, 4.04) and he also has surrendered more hits that innings pitched. Plenty of base runner and runs tonight. Sox 8-3 on the road against winning teams. Play WHITE SOX! |

Milwaukee at L.A. Dodgers 10:10 ET Brewers/Dodgers- Under- Corbin Burnes (9-5. 2.48 ERA) and Tony Gonsolin (15-1, 2.12 ERA) need I say anything else? Listen to this, between them these two last year's Cy Young winner and this year's most likely winner are a combined 272 innings pitched and have surrendered just 171 hits. No one gets on and no one scores. Brewers stink at the plate as it is. Play UNDER! |

08-23-22 | Diamondbacks -120 v. Royals | Top | 7-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 4 m | Show |
Arizona at Kansas City 8:10 ET Diamondbacks over Royals- Maybe Arizona isn't as bad as I thought as the bookmakers think enough of them to make them favorites on the road, be it against the Royals. Zach Davies (2-4, 3.99 ERA) gets the nod for Arizona and he hasn't won since May 13 a span of 12 straight starts. Doesn't it seem a bit strange that he would be favored on the road. But, ahhh...now we see and for good reason as Kansas City is starting Jonathan Heasley (1-7, 5.61) and he has surrendered 66 hits in 61 innings with only 46 K's along with 13 homers and six wild pitches. Take ARIZONA! |

08-23-22 | White Sox -130 v. Orioles | 3-5 | Loss | -130 | 9 h 0 m | Show | |
Chicago White Sox at Baltimore 7:05 ET White Sox over Orioles- The fact that Chicago is favored in this contest made me do a double-take as the Orioles have a better record and are the home team as well. So, it must be because of the difference in the quality of the starting pitchers but, I don't see that as a major factor here. Baltimore starter Auston Voth (3-1, 2.81 ERA) has been very effective hold opponents to just 41 hits in 48 innings. For the White Sox it will Dylan Cease (12-5, 2.09) who has been even more impressive surrendering just 98 hits in 134 innings with 178 strikeouts. Sox are 9-3 in the last 12 meetings. Take CHICAGO WHITE SOX! |

The 38-year-old right-hander is 4-4 with a 3.48 ERA in 10 career starts against the Yankees, whom he last beat April 6, 2013, while with Detroit.

The Yankees' Domingo German (1-2, 4.45) makes his seventh start since a shoulder injury delayed his season debut. German took a no-decision in an 8-7 win over Tampa Bay on Wednesday when he allowed three runs in 4 2/3 innings. German is 1-1 with a 4.43 ERA in four career starts against the Mets. He opposed Scherzer on July 27 and allowed two runs in 4 2/3 innings. Play UNDER! |

Boston at Baltimore 7:10 ET Red Sox over Orioles- The Orioles plan to send right-hander Dean Kremer (5-4, 3.58 ERA) to the mound for the series finale on Sunday. Kremer is 2-1 in three starts this month with a 2.84 ERA. The lone loss came against Boston on Aug. 11, when he gave up four runs and six hits in 5 2/3 innings of a 4-3 loss and he has made two other starts against the Red Sox in his career and lost those as well, leaving him 0-3 and 9.45 ERA against Boston. The Red Sox plan to start right-hander Nick Pivetta (9-9, 4.28) who blanked the Pittsburgh Pirates on one hit over seven innings in a 5-3 Boston victory on Tuesday, ending a streak of eight consecutive starts without earning a win. Pivetta has had success overall against Baltimore in his career, owning a 7-2 mark in 10 starts with a 3.58 ERA. Take BOSTON! |

Cincinnati at New York Giants 7:10 ET Giants over Bengals- For the most part the Super Bowl loser has a difficult time the following year and not only during the regular season but the preseason as well. Even though Joe Burrow won't be playing but I can't get past him getting sacked nine time in the playoffs and they still won. Now, no Burrow but the same lineman. New York will for the most part use Tyron Taylor and the veteran is perfect for the preseason as he runs and is expendable. Giants come up big at home. Take NEW YORK! |

Dallas at L.A. Chargers 10:10 ET Cowboys over Chargers- Both of these clubs were 'Public' favorites last week and both were unimpressive. Dallas was shut out for 55+ minutes before scoring during garbage time and San Diego played fair against the Rams having 120 yards in penalties. The Cowboys had covered their last four preseason road games and after last week's 17-7 loss at Denver they have taken a lot of heat for their effort. The 'Boys' will be looking to right themselves here. Take DALLAS! |

Bumgarner is 0-3 with a 7.33 ERA over his past four starts. He has allowed 34 hits and walked eight in 23 1/3 innings during the stretch.

Houston at Atlanta 7:15 ET Braves over Astros- Cristian Javier (7-8, 2.96 ERA) is slated to start Saturday for the Astros against fellow Braves right-hander Spencer Strider (7-4, 3.04). Atlanta has won 10 of the last 11 games and their surge began after they lost four of five to the Mets in a series. Javier has never faced the Braves in the regular season, although he was 0-1 with a 12.20 ERA in three relief appearances against Atlanta in the World Series. The Astros will face Strider for the first time and they will not like it. Take ATLANTA! |

08-20-22 | Lions -3 v. Colts | Top | 27-26 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 18 m | Show |
Detroit at Indianapolis 1:10 ET Lions over Colts- This is another of those silly 'prices' (like yesterday's Houston) where the worst is favored on the road. Indianapolis is expected to make a playoff run with QB Matt Ryan leading the way. But, the Colts the receiver of five Buffalo turnovers last week did what they do beat and blew a fourth quarter lead and couldn't take advantage of the gifts the Bills gave them. Detroit believe it or not was the 'public' choice last week and failed against the lowly Falcons in a game they dominated the clock and yardage but, a pair of turnovers did them in as they lost at home 27-23. This time they are road favorite (silly isn't it) so I expect the colts to come up lame. Take DETROIT! |

Houston at L.A. Rams 10:10 ET Texans over Rams- For the Super Bowl champs to be an underdog at home against this Houston club has me believing that the Rams will show nothing and play no one of significance. Los Angeles won their first preseason game 29-22 over their in town rival the Chargers. The Texans have an open slate as very little is expected of them and they will be fight for their football lives and jobs each time out. Houston eked out a 17-13 win over the Saints by scoring with :25 to go from Jeff Driskel who is with his fourth team in his fourth season. This NASA group will come to play. Take HOUSTON! |

British Columbia at Saskatchewan 10:00 ET Roughriders (+) over Lions- There is no question who the best team is in the nine-team CFL and it is the B.C. Lions who are 8-1 SU and 7-2 ATS including a 32-17 pounding of tonight's opponent. Although the Lions are ranked No. 1 in both offense and defense they are not perfect. The Roughriders have dominated this series winning seven of nine ATS. Take SASKATCHEWAN! |

08-19-22 | Astros v. Braves -118 | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 9 h 45 m | Show | |
Houston at Atlanta 7:20 ET Braves over Astros- Atlanta is creeping up on the Mets and one of the reasons is the consistency of their pitching staff led by Kyle Wright (14-5, 3.14 ERA). In his last eight starts Wright has surrendered more than two runs twice while giving up three runs once. He has been hit safely only 118 times in 135 innings. Houston will start Lance McCullers Jr. who is making just his second start of the season and he threw six shutout innings against the lowly A's. He will find the Braves a tougher opponent to face and the Astros are just 4-9 in their last 13 games at Atlanta. Take the BRAVES! |

Chris Bassitt (10-7, 3.27 ERA) is scheduled to start for the Mets on Friday. Bassitt's last start also came against the Phillies, and he allowed four hits and no runs in five innings in a win on Sunday. Bassitt is 2-0 with a 1.08 ERA in three career starts against the Phillies, all coming this season. He has struck out 16 and walked six in 16 2/3 innings during those outings. The Phillies will hand the ball on Friday to Aaron Nola (8-9, 3.07 ERA). Nola has had quite a bit of success against the Mets, going 9-6 with a 3.09 ERA in 24 career starts, including four this season. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

New York batters struck out 13 times, and the team's only runs came on balls that did not leave the infield. Jameson Taillon (11-3, 3.95), who leads the Yankees in wins, gets the call on Friday. The right-hander took the loss in his latest outing; he allowed three runs on six hits in seven innings in a 3-0 defeat at Boston on Sunday. Taillon is 4-3 with a 3.51 ERA in eight career starts against the Blue Jays, including 3-1 with a 2.05 ERA in four starts this year. Toronto hands the ball to Kevin Gausman (8-9, 3.16 ERA).

I don't expect much out of them this week but for Seattle who played tough in their loss 32-25 at Pittsburgh. Geno Smith will get the nod at quarterback for the Seahawks as Lock has covid and this is perfect for the veteran. Running plays during the preseason is Geno's specialty as it is his chance to shine.

Maybe the 13 home runs given up has something to do with it. When he's on nobody hits him and last time out he went six inning without giving up a hit with 11 K's.

New York capped off a five-game home matchup with the Braves and won 4-of-5 expanding their lead to six game. Now, it's Atlanta time to shine as the home team and run their strongest opponent out of the formerly burnt to the ground Atlanta. (A little Sherman history). Taijuan Walker (10-3, 3.43 ERA) has been a huge plus for the Mets with deGrom down for four months but have surrendered 13 runs in his last three starts coving just 12.2 innings. The Braves Charlie Morton (5-5, 4.26) doesn't seem the same as years past but, he's still difficult to hit allowing 104 in 123 innings. Home team is 50-24 in last 74 games as hosts. Take ATLANTA! |

Cleveland at Boston 7:05 ET Watch Dogs over Red Sox- With seven wins in their past 10 games, the Guardians are within 2 1/2 of the final American League wild-card spot. Boston is under .500 for the first time since it was 27-28 on June 4. The Red Sox are now 4 1/2 games out of a playoff spot.

Boston's starters are 0-12 with a 7.65 ERA this month, and the Red Sox hope rookie Kutter Crawford (2-3, 4.50) can end the skid. Crawford is 1-1 with a 2.82 ERA in his past four outings and owns a 3.81 ERA in five starts this season. Take CLEVELAND. |

Tampa Bay at Baltimore 7:05 ET Rays over Orioles- My goodness woke has taken over baseball to the point where the Orioles are better then .500 and truthfully they have been playing really good baseball. With Monday's loss the Rays have dropped four straight including the last two in Baltimore but tonight they send their most effective hurler to the hill as Drew Rasmussen (6-3, 3.13 ERA) will be their stopper. The O's will start Tyler Wells (7-6, 3.69) who doesn't strike out many but is difficult to hit surrendering 116 hits in 147 MLB innings. Overall the Rays own Baltimore and is 47-19 in the last 68 meetings. Take TAMPA BAY! |

N.Y. Yankees at N.Y. Mets 7:10 ET Yankees over Mets- The Subway Series continue tonight at Citi Field where the Mets will host the Yankees in the first of a two-game set. The Bronx Bombers are the number 1 offensive team in baseball doing it with the long ball leading in runs, homers and OPS and have a team ERA of 3.30. Both clubs will send their more unheralded starters to the hill as Jordan Montgomery (3-2, 3.24 ERA) take the lead for the Yankees and Taijuan Walker (7-2, 2.55) for the Mets.

Los Angeles' Noah Syndergaard (5-7, 4.00 ERA) has won only once in his last seven starts -- June 27 against the Chicago White Sox -- and has made four career starts against Kansas City. The right-hander is 2-2 with a 3.55 ERA vs. the Royals, allowing 24 hits while fanning 24 in 25 1/3 innings. Kansas City will send out its own right-handed power pitcher -- 38-year-old Zack Greinke -- in an effort to win its third straight game.

The Padres' won my Megabucks release 2-1 Saturday and their confidence might be improving after their fourth win in five games. San Diego had lost 10 of its previous 14. Carrasco faced the Padres for the first time in his career June 6, when he earned the win after allowing two runs over seven innings in the Mets' 11-5 victory. Musgrove is 1-4 with a 5.63 ERA in five games (four starts) against New York. Still, the mojo is with the Padres. Take SAN DIEGO! |

Cleveland at Chicago White Sox 8:00 ET (2nd Game) Guardians over White Sox- I hate posting games that are played during double-headers are managers see as an opportunity to play their dregs, just where and when is the question. Lance Lynn Lynn (1-3, 7.50 ERA) just doesn't have it anymore at least from I have seen he is toast. Konnor Pilkington (1-2, 4.24) is expected to be called up for the start for Cleveland and the Guardians are 7-3 in the last 10 meetings. Take CLEVELAND |

Blake Snell hasn't been his best yet this season but he did put together a pair of back-to-back quality starts before the break. The Mets seem to have lost their mojo as their weaknesses are beginning to show. Today's starter for New York will be Chris Bassett who has been good but not overwhelmingly great. Bassitt is 0-1 with a 10.13 ERA in two career starts against the Padres. Snell is 2-3 with a 3.21 ERA in five starts against the Mets. Take SAN DIEGO! |

The Giants will send right-hander Logan Webb (9-3, 2.83) to the mound Friday. The San Francisco leader in wins and innings pitched (117 2/3) will be facing the Dodgers for the first time this season. In six career starts against Los Angeles, he is 1-2 with a 3.64 ERA. Anderson is not only a former Giants pitcher, joining them for the 2020 season, he also has eight career starts against San Francisco, going 1-3 with a 4.40 ERA.

Milwaukee at San Francisco 7:15 ET Brewers over Giants- The merry-go-round of Giants base runners would still be going on as they scored six runs in the bottom of the ninth to defeated the Brewers last night if the winning runs scored and ended the game. Major league saves leader Josh Hader (0-4, 4.50 ERA) entered the contest with a 3-run lead and after facing seven batters six had scored and the game was history. First place Milwaukee will send Eric Lauer (6-3, 3.83) to the mound and he has carried a heavy load his last two times out throwing 102 and 101 pitches in five and six innings respectively. Alex Cobb (3-4, 4.57) has not been as effective in 2022 as in seasons past as he has struggled a bit. Brewers are 5-2 in Frisco after last night's loss and regroup today. Take MILWAUKEE! |

Ottawa at Hamilton 5:00 ET Tiger-Cats (-) over RedBlacks- With these two 0-4 clubs (1-7 ATS) going at it Saturday the thing I want to say is God Bless America and the NFL. Looks like it should be a pretty even game when comparing offenses and defenses but the 'number' is kind of drastic for a team ranked 8-of-9 on offense. But, injuries are a part of the game and the RedBlacks are hurting as well as 4-10 ATS on the road and 0-4 ATS in their last four stops at Tiger-Cats. Take HAMILTON! |

Saskatchewan posted a pair of impressive wins the last two weeks pounding Montreal 41-20 and Ottawa 28-13 in home wins. The roughriders have had their way in the series between these two as they are 4-1 in the last five meetings and an even more impressive 11-5 ATS in Toronto. But, the Argonauts are 5-2-1 ATS after a straight up loss. Number don't show it but it's...TORONTO! |

Milwaukee at San Francisco 10:15 ET Brewers over Giants- Ya know, Milwaukee played one of those games where you never believed that you could win. They had 11 hits in the fifth inning and had scored only one run while the Giants had two runs on two hits. Burnes was his usual self and they gutted out a gritty win and are now favored on the road again. So, we will have them again with Brandon Woodruff (7-3, 4.01 ERA) on the hill as we will back the Brewers who are 5-1 in their last six in San Francisco. Take MILWAUKEE! |

Minnesota starter Devin Smeltzer (4-2, 3.92) is 0-1 in his last three starts getting hit hard in the last two but, nowhere near as bad as they other guy. Twins are 7-2 in the last nine meetings including 5-1 at home. Take MINNESOTA! |

Baltimore at Tampa Bay 7:10 ET Rays over Orioles- Baltimore's improbable 10 game winning streak and the truth of the matter is that they sandwiched seven home games in before winning their last two at Wrigley against the Cubs. What I'm getting at is that they are seven games under .500 on the road while Tampa Bay with one of the best home field advantages is 12 games over 500. as hosts. Orioles are even worse in Tampa where they are 14-39 in the last 53 meetings. Take TAMPA BAY! |

Both hurlers have been outstanding as Rodon has allowed only 74 hits in 100 innings and Burnes has been even better allowing just 69 hits in 106.1 innings. Brewers are 4-1 in their last five games in San Francisco and the under is 3-1-1. I expect this to stay under and for MILWAUKEE to WIN! |

07-14-22 | Edmonton Elks v. Montreal -9 | 32-31 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 48 m | Show | |
Edmonton at Montreal 7:30 ET Alouettes (-) over Elks- When looking at the Elks (former Eskimos) we clearly see the worst that the CFL has to offer. They are dead last in both offense and defense surrendering the most yards per game and gaining the least on offense. Now, this might not as big a mis-match as it looks as Montreal in dead center in the nine-team league ranking No. 4 of defense and No. 5 on offense (you can't get anymore centered than that!). The Alouettes have scored 103 points and given up 104 points thus far and the 'price' is probably right. But, coming off a 41-20 loss to Saskatchewan is easier than Edmonton's 49-6 home loss to Calgary. Hold your breath and lay it. Take MONTREAL!f |

Tampa Bay sends Drew Rasmussen (5-3, 3.11 ERA) to the bump while Boston will send Kutter Crawford (23-2, 4.50) who is making his second straight start in 12 appearances after shutting down the Yankees on one run in five innings last time out.

Rockies starter Kyle Freeman (4-7, 4.70) has surrendered more hits than innings pitched and that is never a good sign. Take SAN DIEGO! |

The best thing they have going for them is Shohei Ohtani (8-4, 2.44 ERA) who has been un-hittable on the mound of late. He has surrendered just 60 hits in 81 innings and has not allowed a run in his last four starts covering 27 innings and only one run in his five starts in 34 innings.

Tonight the O's will start Spenser Watkins (2-1, 4.15 ERA) and he has been at his best in his last three starts going 17.2 innings while surrendering only two earned runs. Chicago will send Justin Steele (3-5, 4.13) and he is off his best showing of the season allowing just two hits in 7.0 innings against the Brewers. Despite their current hot streak Baltimore is just 1-6 in the last seven meetings and the Cubs are 5-2 in their last seven games against right-handed starters. Take the CUBS! |

Chicago W.S. at Cleveland 7:10 ET Watch Dogs over White Sox- Perhaps the biggest disappointment this season my be the play of the White Sox as their manager once again called for an intentional base-on-balls while having the batter in a hole with the count. Louis Giolito (5-5, 5.05 ERA) has shown wear as he has surrendered 35 earned runs in his last eight starts covering 43 innings (not good). Cleveland's Aaron Civale (2-5, 6.28) has had his own issues but is off his best outing of the season allowing just one run in seven innings. The White Sox are 1-6 in the last seven meetings and just 19-40 at Cleveland the last 59 meetings. Take CLEVELAND! |

Tampa Bay is not what they have been in the past but they do get ready when top pitchers take the mound for their opponents. The Rays are 4-1 in the last five meetings against the Sox and 10-4 in the last 14 games in Tampa. The Red Sox are 2-7 in their last nine games on artificial turf and the Rays are 5-1 in their last six against the AL East. Take TAMPA BAY! |

The Braves have lefty Max Fried (9-2, 2.52) ready to go. The surging Braves have pulled within 1 1/2 games of the NL East Division-leading Mets entering this series as Atlanta won for the sixth time in its last seven games.

The team has been shut out in four of his starts and it scored just once in two others. He is 1-1 with a 3.93 ERA in four career appearances against the Phillies, including three starts. The Phillies, who have won seven of their last 10 games, will start Aaron Nola after using five relievers Sunday in a bullpen game.

New York who leads the majors in scoring runs per game will send former No. 1 pick by the Pirates James Taillon (9-2, 3.83 ERA) to start in Fenway Park and that can be intimating. Boston will send out six-year veteran Nick Pivetta (8-6, 3.86 ERA) to face the Bronx Bombers and he has surrendered just 83 hits in over 100 innings of work.

San Francisco at San Diego 4:10 ET Giants over Padres- San Francisco had lost seven straight before getting into the win column against Arizona lost two more and then recovered as our Megabucks winner 3-1 over the Padres last night. San Diego I believe is the most overrated team in MLB as most expect them to challenge the Dodgers and Giants in the West. The Giants will send Alex Woods (5-7, 4.83 ERA) to the mound while the Padres will send MacKenzie Gore (4-3, 3.18) and it may seem the San Diego has the advantage being home and have a more effective hurler but, they just don't play well against better competition.
