Top Games

Cardinals @ Marlins

The Cardinals are playing decent baseball of late, the Marlins are not.  Miami has only won two of their last ten games overall.  Because the Cards are on the road, you'll be getting a decent price on each of the games in this series.  On Monday, for example, we had Sonny Gray starting for St. Louis and this one stayed under -150.  The Cardinals did walk off with the win.  For Tuesday's game, the line was coming in at -148 Cards with Lance Lynn starting vs. Roddery Munoz for Miami.

Mariners @ Guardians

Two of the hotter teams in the MLB right now face off.  While Cleveland is 6-3 versus Seattle in their last nine meetings, the Mariners took 2 of 3 in Cleveland the last time they played there.

PITCHING PROBABLES: Mariners: Bryce Miller (5-5, 3.48 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, 80 strikeouts); Guardians: Triston McKenzie (3-3, 4.10 ERA, 1.41 WHIP, 65 strikeouts)

LINE Guardians -118, Mariners -102; over/under is 8 1/2 runs

Cleveland has a 44-25 record overall and a 21-8 record at home. The Guardians are 15-6 in games when they hit at least two home runs.

Seattle is 43-31 overall and 16-19 in road games. The Mariners rank sixth in the AL with 81 total home runs, averaging 1.1 per game.

Padres @ Phillies

You gotta love this one.  Philadelphia is one of the hottest teams right now and just a -152 favorite at home against the Padres.  And better still, they are 9-1 against them over their last ten meetings.

Diamondbacks @ Nationals

Both teams are sitting around the .500 mark.  Arizona is 8-2 in the last ten games against Washington.  But be careful here, the Nats are emerging as one of the better teams in Major League Baseball right now.  They've won 8 of their last 9 games.

Orioles @ Yankees

Our marquee matchup of the day. Baltimore has dominated 7-2 over the last nine meetings between these two clubs.  And the Orioles happen to be on fire of late, winning eight of their last ten overall.  The Yankees have only won half of their last ten.
