We here at Gambling911.com have been getting slaughtered in recent days following last year’s terrific run.  Hopefully today’s plays will signal a turn-around.  “Betting Baseball – The Hot Sheet” is a daily free picks column appearing on the Gambling911.com website so be sure to bookmark us and check out the daily Baseball picks here.

We will be on Tampa Bay at -123 as the visiting favourite in Baltimore.  The Rays send David Price to the mound.  In six career starts at Baltimore's Camden Yards, Price has three wins, four quality starts, a 2.54 ERA and a 1.15 WHIP, with current Orioles a combined .230/.276/.326 hitting against him with a 26 percent strikeout rate.

Tampa Bay is a bit of a scary play as they have lost 7 of their last 9 games.  Baltimore has only won 4 of their last 10 however.  The Orioles are also 10-4 in Miguel Gonzalez’s last 14 starts.  But this is all about David Price and there is definitely some value at -123 at BetOnline.

We also like the red hot Red Sox, who have won 5 straight.  They will start John Lester, who is 5-1 when starting against Cleveland with an ERA of 3.34 and a WHIP of 1.191.  What caught our attention is that Boston is just a -125 favorite here.  The public is backing Boston heavy here.  

The Red Sox have won the last three in this series and four of the last five games.  They are 5-0 in their last 5 road games vs. a right-handed starter.

The Indians are 3-8 in Zach McAllister.s last 11 starts.
