The New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox will wrap up their 3-game set tonight in the Bronx. The Yankees will have southpaw Carlos Rodón on the hill. Rodón is 8-3 with a 2.49 ERA, a WHIP of 0.93, and has won his last 7 starts. The best player in baseball, the Yankees’ Aaron Judge, was 0-4 yesterday and that is a rarity. Judge and company will get to the Red Sox pitcher Hunter Dobbins who has an ERA of 4.06 and a 1.31 WHIP. Judge will have a big night tonight. Count on it. The Bombers are the side to consider.
TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK YANKEES

The Philadelphia Phillies have lost 3 in a row but should right the ship today when they face the Pittsburgh Pirates in the middle game of a 3-game set at PNC Park. The 37-26 Phillies will have Ranger Suárez on the hill and he has been dealing. Suárez is 4-0 with a 2.73 ERA, a 1.22 WHIP, and will shutdown the 24-40 Pirates, who are averaging just over 3 runs per game. Philadelphia has the edge in runs scored, hits, batting average, slugging, OPS, and homers. 
TODAY’S PICK: PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES

The Tampa Bay Rays and the Miami Marlins will play an early one today at Steinbrenner Field. Kevin Cash has his team hitting on every cylinder. Tampa has won 3 straight and will have Zack Littell on the hill. The Rays are 7-0 in his last 7 starts and are playing one of the worst teams in the majors. Miami has lost 4 in a row and are just 9-17 on the road. The side to choose is obvious. 
TODAY’S PICK: TAMPA BAY RAYS

The New York Yankees and the Cleveland Guardians will play the rubber match of a 3-game set tonight in the Bronx. The Yankees fell to the Guardians yesterday 4-0 but they will rebound tonight with Max Fried on the hill. Southpaw Fried is 7-1 with an ERA of just 1.92 and a 0.94 WHIP. Cleveland will counter with Slade Cecconi, who is 1-1 with an elevated ERA of 5.28 and a 1.43 WHIP. Aaron Judge is licking his chops.
TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK YANKEES

The Detroit Tigers fell to the lowly Chicago White Sox yesterday, 8-1, but that won’t happen again tonight. Detroit is the best in the business; they were all groomed through the Tiger organization, not bought, and that is how Champions are built. Detroit is averaging over 5 runs per game and will win tonight.
TONIGHT’S PICK: DETROIT TIGERS

The 36-23 Philadelphia Phillies are on a 4-game losing streak but they will get back on the rails tonight when they open a 3-game set with the 30-29 Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre. Toronto is expected to have Bowden Francis on the hill and the Phillies will light this guy up. Francis is 2-6 with a 5.04 ERA and a 1.36 WHIP. Superstar Bryce Harper is expected to return for Philadelphia tonight. Enough said.
TONIGHT’S PICK: PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES

The best team in baseball, the Detroit Tigers, will open a 4-game set tonight with the lowly Chicago White Sox on the south side. The Tigers are the better team 1 through 9. They already swept the White Sox in early April and will win tonight.
