The Oakland Athletics are starting to click on every cylinder. They are 8-1 in their last 9 and should have no problem disposing of the Texas Rangers and southpaw Kolby Allard today. Allard is just 2-10 on the season with a 4.93 ERA and 1.20 WHIP, and the Athletics can hit lefties.
TODAY’S PICK: OAKLAND ATHLETICS
Saturday MLB Pick
The best southpaw in the business, Chris Sale, will be back on the rubber after a two year layoff due to TJ surgery when the Boston Red Sox host the Baltimore Orioles. Baltimore has lost 9 in a row and they are 8-22 in their last 30 against a left-handed starter on the road. That doesn’t bode well for the Birds. Sale is 8-2 in his career with a 2.57 ERA against Baltimore.
TODAY’S PICK: BOSTON RED SOX
Friday MLB Pick
The Milwaukee Brewers are hot. They lead the NL Central by 8 games and should pad that lead this weekend when they visit the 41-74 Pittsburgh Pirates. Mitch Keller is expected to toe the rubber for the Bucs and he is just simply not good. Keller is 3-9 with a 7.06 ERA, a 1.81 WHIP, and the Brewers are 6-1 in their last 7 at PNC Park.

The San Diego Padres cannot afford to lose to a team like the Miami Marlins if they want to contend in the tough NL West and they know it. Tonight the Pads will have Joe Musgrove tapping the rubber at Petco Park and he has been delivering. Over his last 3 starts, Musgrove is 2-0 with a 1.42 ERA and a 0.84 WHIP. Enough said.

The Houston Astros better be sleeping with one eye open because the Oakland Athletics sit just 3 games back for the top spot in the AL West. The A’s mowed down the pathetic Texas Rangers yesterday, 12-3, and today will be no different. Oakland has won 4 straight against the Rangers and are 36-15 in their last 51 meetings overall.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are the pick today. They have too much firepower to fall to the Los Angeles Angels again tonight. Julio Urías is expected to toe the rubber for the Dodgers and when he starts, good things happen. Urías is 13-3 with a 3.40 ERA and a 1.05 WHIP.
