Dodgers should snap their 2 game skid tonight at home against the Arizona Diamondbacks.The lefty Anderson gets the call tonight for LA. The Dodgers are 5-1 in his last 6 starts, and are 38-14 at home against teams with a losing record. Arizona has not fared well at Dodger Stadium, posting a 5-16 record over their last 21 games. Dodgers should get this one.
Tonight’s pick:
Los Angeles Dodgers
Twins snap their 5 game skid at home against the Halos. Twins are 5-1 in Duffy’s last 6 starts.
Today’s pick:
Minnesota Twins
What is wrong with Houston? I’ll tell you everything. Lay off them until they turn it around. I like Nats today. Zimmerman is on the hill and he is 7-1, in his last 8 home games against the Marlins.
Today’s pick:
Washington Nationals
Houston is finally coming home, where they have an impressive record of 48-24. The Astros are 4-0 at home following a road trip of 7 days or more, and are 12-1 at home vs. a left-handed pitcher. Fiers is on the hill for Houston and they are 4-1 in his last 5 starts. Astros should stop the bleeding tonight.
Pirates might be a good dog pick at +175. McCutchen and Ramirez rested yesterday and even Greinke is beatable.
Today’s picks:
Houston Astros
Pittsburgh Pirates
Big line change in Jays/Braves game. Jays opened at -220 and are now at -170. Careful!
The red hot Blue Jays are in Atlanta tonight and they are facing Matt Wisler. Wisler’s ERA is 7.24 with a WHIP of 1.90 over his last 3 games. Atlanta is 0-6 in his last 6 starts. The Blue Jays have the edge in every category: starting pitching, bullpen, hitting, power, speed, defense and bench. Barksdale is behind home plate and the Braves are 0-7 in his last 7 games umping. This could be a big night for Bautista and company.
Today’s pick:
Toronto Blue Jays
McCutchen and Ramirez are doubtful for the Pirates today due to a routine day off to rest.
