I hit 4 out of my last 5 games. Let’s keep it rolling today with the Pirates at home against the Reds. Pirates are 21-11 at home and the Reds are 12-22 on the road. Locke has been sharp over his last 3 starts for the Pirates with an ERA of 2.95 and a WHIP of 1.15. Pirates should end their 3 game skid tonight.
Today’s pick:
Pittsburgh Pirates
I’m taking the Twins at home tonight against the Chicago White Sox. Chicago has a dismal road record of 12-23 and John Danks has been roughed up over his last 3 starts with an ERA of 6.35 and a WHIP of 1.59 over that span. Minnesota plays well at home with a 23-14 record and Tommy Milone has been sharp with an ERA of 2.37 and a WHIP of 1.00, over his last 3 starts.The Twins have the edge in hitting, power, speed and defense. Twins should turn it around tonight with a win.

Let’s take the Dodgers at home over the Giants. Dodgers are 11-4 over their last 15 Sunday games and have a 26-13 record at home. I like Anderson, the lefty, with a 3.48 ERA and 1.31 WHIP over his last 3 games. Lincecum over his last 3 games has an ERA of 4.41 and a WHIP of 1.41. Dodgers have the edge with their bullpen, power, defense and bench. They’re going to win today.

Rolling with the Nats today. Scherzer’s on the bump. He’s 7-5 with an ERA of 1.95 and a WHIP of 0.88. Washington has an edge in starting pitching, hitting, power, defense and bench. Oh yeah, Harper’s back.
Today’s pick:

Great win with the Phillies as a home dog yesterday. Let’s keep it rolling today with the White Sox and Chris Sale. Over his last 3 starts, Sale has an ERA of 1.25 and a WHIP of 0.78. Colby Lewis for Texas has an ERA of 3.43 and a WHIP of 0.98 over his last 3 starts. Texas does not do well in Chicago. Over their last 11 games in Chicago, they are 3-8.

Good day yesterday with Astros and Giants winning. Today I like 3 games and we will start north of the border. The Mets are 3-11 in their last 14 road games and Toronto is 11-2 in their last 13. Toronto has the edge in starting pitching, bullpen, hitting, power, speed, defense and bench. They like hitting lefties and Niese is a lefty.
I also like the Yankees at home. Pineda is 6-2 in his last 8 home starts. Yankees have the edge in starting pitching, bullpen, power and bench.
Lastly, I like San Fran over Seattle with 2 aces on the hill. Over Bumgarner’s last 3 games, he has an ERA of 3.63 and a WHIP of 1.07. King Felix has an ERA of 12 over the last 3 and an ERA of 1.92. He got lit up last time around. San Fran is 7-2 in their last 9 road games, while Seattle is 1-9 in their last 10 games as a favorite. Seattle is also 1-8 in their last 9 home games.
