OAKLAND A's(Severino) +160 over Philadelphia Phillies(Sanchez)------Severino coming off 2 very good starts.   Phillies on a 7-2 run but...........they've still been outhit by A's by 27pts and out scored by them by 17 Runs.  A's have 3 hitters that are over .300.   Severino has walked 23 in 38 innings.   Sanchez is walking only 1 every 3 innings but has thrown a .289 average.   So he's hittable and the price is good.

CLEVELAND GUARDIANS(Williams) -115 over Kansas City Royals(Kolek)-------Cleveland has gone 6-1 when Williams starts.   He looks pretty good.

STL CARDINALS(Pallante) -110 over Milwaukee Brewers(Sproat)--------Offenses are equal.   Brewers have gone 2-4 when Sproat starts.   Pallante's throwing a .221 average and Stl is on a 7-1 run at home here.

COLORADO ROCKIES(Sugano) +125 over New York Mets-----------Mets will probably start Myers,  who has thrown a .190 average,  but hasn't gone more than 3 innings in a game.   Rockies have gone 4-2 when Sugano pitches.  They are on an 0-4 run but have hit 26pts higher than Mets and outscored them by 32 runs.   They have Moniak at .327,  Tyler Freeman at .293,  Johnston at .321 who is #20,  with Tovar with #14,  and Edouard Julien at .276.   Rockies at home have won 2 more games than Mets.

CINCINNATI REDS(Burns) +100 over Pittsburgh Pirates(Ashcraft)-----Reds have won 2 more games than Pitt,  while Pitt's offense has been much better,  having scored 38 more runs.  Ashcraft has thrown a low .221 average,  yet Pirates have gone 3-3 when he has started.   Burns,  I believe, is better,  with Reds having gone 4-2 when he starts.  He was born in Naples, Italy.  I like that,  with the Italians having come through yesterday.  Yes,  the Pirates rocked Lowder yesterday,     but the Reds scored 7 Runs.

DETROIT TIGERS(Holton) -125 over Texas Rangers(Leiter)---------Tigers' offense is better.   Leiter gives up a lot of runs.  So while Holton is only a 1-inning pitcher and Tigers have been about .500,   they have scored 25 more runs than Rangers.

HOUSTON ASTROS(Arrighetti) +105 over Boston Red Sox(Early)----------Considering  Pasquantino hit an HR yesterday and upped his average to .176 and Sam Antonacci went 2-4 yesterday,  in addition to Eovaldi dominating the Yankees a couple days ago,   I feel good about backing an Italian name here.   Arrighetti is 3-0,  throwing .169 and walking 1 every 2.   Astros aren't winning much more than Boston but they are hitting 33pts higher and have scored 43 more Runs.  Early is also walking about 1 every 2 innings but Boston is 2-4 when he starts.

CHICAGO WHITE SOX(Burke) +170 over San Diego Padres(King)------Burke is a Sagittarius.   Walking only 1 every 4.5 innings while King is walking almost 1 every 2 while being hard to hit.   Padres have scored only 4 more Runs than CWS and have hit 7 pts higher.   CWS on a 4-game winning streak so I'll take this big line.

NEW YORK METS(Mclean) -130 over La Angels(Detmers)--------Mets won yesterday and know they need to win a lot more to earn the embarrassing amount of money they are paid.   Semien and Bichette are new players who should be doing a lot better.   Angels have scored 43 more runs than Mets and have won 1 more game than Mets.   McLean is good, he's K'd 45 in 35 innings,  throwing .162.

 STL CARDINALS(Liberatore) +155 over La Dodgers(Sheehan)-------Dodgers have won 2 more games than Cardinals,  who just went 4-0 AT Pittsburgh.   Now they are home.  Dodgers have scored 12 more runs than Cardinals.   Liberatore has been hit,  but Stl is 4-2 in games he has started.

MIAMI MARLINS(Perez) +100 over Philadelphia Phillies(Wheeler)-----Wheeler went 5 3 2 3 6 vs Braves but Phillies on a 4-11 run.  Marlins are hitting 23pts higher and have scored 17 more runs than Phillies.   Marlins have gone 4-2 when Perez has started,  although he's walking 1 every 2.  Otto Lopez is at .322 and Edwards is at .336.

TORONTO BLUE JAYS(Corbin) -109 over Minnesota Twins(Richardson)-----Guerrero is hitting .354 with the Forever War on.   Jays hitting 16 pts higher while Twins have scored 32 more runs.   Richardson not getting the job done,  throwing a .311 average and the Twins have gone 1-5 when he starts.   Tor has gone 3-1 in Corbin's starts.

ATLANTA BRAVES(Elder) -114 over Detroit Tigers(Valdez)--------Got in on Betrivers at this low price.  Valdez is not bad,  and Elder is pretty good,  walking only 1 every 3.7 innings and throwing a .194 average.   Atlanta is the best offense in baseball,  having outscored the Tigers by 38 Runs.

COLORADO ROCKIES(Lorenzen) +155 over Cincinnati Reds(Abbott)-----Lorenzen doesn't have problems with walks.  1 every 4 innings.   But he has won this year despite the .359 average he's throwing.  Abbott has thrown a .319 average,  walking 1 every 2 innings and we can say..........that he usually gets rocked.   Reds have won 5 more games than Col but Rockies have out hit them by 34pts and scored 6 more runs.  Yesterday Goodman had 2 HR and it was a blowout.  Today Abbott is up there at -165...........I'll take it.

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS(Rodriguez) +100 over Milwaukee Brewers(Sproat)-----Both teams are 15-13,  Mil has scored 11 more runs while AZ is hitting 12pts higher.   Mil destroyed Kelly and Az yesterday.   Eduardo Rodriguez is pretty good,  throwing a .231 average.  Sproat has been getting a little better,  but he's not as good as Rodriguez.   Edward Cabrera won yesterday so I'll take Eduardo Rodriguez today.(Win 6-2..........Marte, Carroll and Arenado have HRs)

CHICAGO CUBS(Taillon) -107 over San Diego Padres(Waldron)----------Taillon is not exactly a "sure thing",  but Waldron has been rocked by Rockies and Angels in his two starts: 8 inn 12 ER.   Regardless of records,  Cubs' offense has been much better this season.(Win 5-4............Matt Shaw 3-4 HR)

CHICAGO CUBS(Cabrera) -120 over San Diego Padres(Buehler)-------San Diego is 19-9, which explains this line.  Cubs offense has scored 24 more Runs than Padres and is hitting 22pts higher.  Buehler is walking almost 1 every 2 innings and hitters are .293 off him.   He used to be good,  but I don't think he's so good anymore.  Cabrera has always had problems with walks yet this year he's only walked 11 in 29 innings with a BA against of .229.   He has 2 Wins and Cubs have gone 4-1 when he starts.(Win 8-3...........Alex Bregman 2-2,  CrowArmstrong HR)

SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS(Mahle) +144 over Philadelphia Phillies(Luzardo)----Look,  Phillies are 9-19 and linemakers are still acting like they're a good team.  They haven't showed that yet.  Luzardo has had 2 good starts and 3 rockings,  throwing a .295 average.   Mahle has been off-and-on,  walking 1 every 2 innings with a .273 BA against.  Phillies have scored 5 more Runs but SF is hitting 31pts higher.  Phillies just fired their manager,  Rob Thompson.(Lose 7-0..............Giants get 2 Hits.   Team doesn't hit for me)

STL CARDINALS(May) +110 over Pittsburgh Pirates(Montgomery)---------May has 3 consecutives wins after getting rocked.  He hasn't had a problem with walks.   Montgomery is a 1-inning pitcher.  Pirates have scored 10 more Runs than Cardinals,  who are on a 1-5 streak.  Cardinals have Nathan Church,  who had 2 HR a few games ago.  Pirates have Cruz.(Win 4-2.............Wetherhold and Pedro Pages with 9th inn HRs..............Ryan Fernandez out of Hillsborough CC gets the 2innings Win............George Soriano a lot of strikes for the Save.)

WASHINGTON NATIONALS(Griffin) +113 over Chicago White Sox(Hudson)---------Hudson is a 1-inning pitcher,  not a starter while Griffin is pretty good;  I like him.  8 walks in 26 inn throwing a .235 average.   Understand that Nationals offense has been way better.  They are 42 Runs up on CWS and have hit 21pts better.(Win 2-1............a sterling 7 2 0 2 8 by Griffin matched by a 7 3 0 0 4 by Burke.  Jose Tena had an HR)

KANSAS CITY ROYALS(Lugo) -125 over La Angels(Detmers)------I'm pissed that Angels lost twice for me.   Yes, KC blew them out yesterday,  for obvious reasons.  But Lugo is good..........and he's not gotten wins this year but done very well.  .181 BA against.   KC hitting 10 pts higher than Angels but are 24 Runs behind Angels.)(Win 11-9...........Lane Thomas with the GWHR, 3-6.  Jac Caglianone with the 2Run HR with 2 outs in the 9th to tie it............Lucas Erceg gets the W...........Bobby Witt and Isaac Collins 2Hits with HR.   Lugo, strangely,  gets totally rocked.)

CLEVELAND GUARDIANS(Cantillo) +123 over Toronto Blue Jays(Gausman)-----Cantillo's a Sagittarius and Cleveland has gone 4-1 when he has started.  They have Rocchio and Angel Martinez.  Guardians have scored 12 more Runs than Blue Jays and Blue Jays are only 10-15.(Lose 5-3........Rocchio swings over his head to end the game)

COLORADO ROCKIES(Quintana) +173 over New York Mets(Senga)---------Rockies have scored 21 more Runs than Mets and have hit 22pts higher.   Senga has thrown a .319 average and has walked 10 in 17 innings.   Quintana may have not done good,  but so far Rockies have been a better team than Mets.(PPD)

OAKLAND A's(Springs) +120 over Texas Rangers(Gore)------Gore has walked almost 1 every 2 innings,  but other than that both pitchers have done well.   The offenses are even.  Cortes is at .339 for A's.(Lose 4-3..............HR by Jung)

CHICAGO CUBS(Rea) +125 over La Dodgers(Sasaki)----Both teams are 17-9,  Cubs have scored 4 more Runs.   Sasaki has not been good,  thowing a .296 average.(Lose 12-4...........Rea gets rocked)

MINNESOTA TWINS(Ryan) -110 over New York Mets(Scott)-------Twins have 41 more runs and 32 more walks than Mets.   Ryan looks ok,  no walks problem,  batters against is .184.  Mets are on a 1-12 run after Mamdani got in............Mets are a Jew-owned team,  I think, is the problem.   They've spent a lot of money,  bought Luis Robert.  Twins are only 12-12 and have hit 3pts better.(Lose 10-8)

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES(Backhus) +166 over Chicago Cubs(Boyd)-----Phillies:  a pathetic 8-15 record.   They are 4th overall in walks and have walked 5 more times than Cubs,  who are +44 Runs and +37 pts on Phillies.   Bohm is at .128,  which is a big part of this underperforming offense.  Stott is at .210 and Schwarber is .217.   Bacchus is of course the god of wine,  ritual madness and theatre.   Phillies need to be shaken out of their skid...........what is up with this 37 cent line at Bet Rivers?   Dude, play the game.(Lose 7-2............This team is sick!  Backhus didn't shake up shit going 1 2  1 0 1, giving way to Walker,  who is a very bad pitcher this year.    It's really Schwarber who is killing this offense.  He had a 3-1 pitch when this game was still within reach and GIDP.  Then he had a backwards K.   Can't bet on Phillies.)

LA ANGELS(Kochanowicz) -115 over Toronto Blue Jays(Corbin)---------Corbin has experience but he's always been hittable(.271).   Kochanowicz has walked 15 in 23 innings but batters have hit .167 off him.  I screwed up yesterday,  telling all these A's players were on the Angels.  Angels have Logan, Oswald,  Jo, Mike,  Nolan and Neto.   I think they'll win today.(Lose 4-2...........Kochanowicz was fine;  Drew Pomeranz got in and lost the game.)

MIAMI MARLINS(Paddack) -115 over Stl Cardinals(May)----------May has had 2 bad and 2 good starts.  Batters hitting .351 off him. .288 off Paddack.  Marlins hitting 24pts higher than Cardinals,  on a 2-game winning streak.   They have Edwards and Otto,  and #17 Caissie.(Lose 5-3)

OAKLAND A's(Lopez) +145 over Seattle Mariners(Castillo)-----Neither SP looks too good,  but A's are in 1st place,  having hit 16pts higher than Seattle and scored 3 more Runs.(Win 5-2)

LA ANGELS(Detmer) +100 over Toronto Blue Jays(Cease)------Blue Jays are only 8-13 on the road here.  Cease has thrown a .184 average but has walked 12 in 20 innings.   After years of not walking,  Angels are 3rd overall in walking and have taken 31 more walks than Blue Jays.   Angels have scored 31 more Runs than Blue Jays while Tor has hit 28pts higher.  Detmers has thrown a .212 average and walked only 6 in 22 innings.  Angels have Oswald and Kurtz,  who is bringing his average up a bit,  Muncy,  Jacob Wilson and Tyler.   Angels  on a 5-5 run while Tor is 2-5.(Lose 5-2...............stupid,  me listing all those A's players.  I should have played them,  they won.  Angels suck for me)

ATLANTA BRAVES(Holmes) +100 over Philadelphia Phillies(Painter)-----------Painter is 6'7,  K's about 1 per inning,  hasn't lasted more than 5.1 inn/game and is throwing a .291 average.  Batters have hit .182 off Holmes and he's walked about 1 every 2 innings.   Braves are the 2nd best offense in baseball and hit 54 pts higher than Phillies.   And they've scored 45 more Runs than Phillies.  Gotta go here again.(Win 4-2............Michael Harris 3-3 HR)

ATLANTA BRAVES(Sale) +105 over Philadelphia Phillies(Sanchez)------Sanchez is 6'6 and a Sagittarius.  Batters are hitting .273 off him this year.   Sale is also very tall and batters have hit  .213 off him this year.   Braves offense has been a lot better this year.   Braves are 43 Runs up on the Phillies and have hit 50pts higher than them.  Dubon is hitting .319,  Mateo is at .438, Olson at .299 and Dominic Smith is at .362.   And they have Ronald Acuna.   This is a good price for a 13-7 team with Sale.(Win 3-1)

KANSAS CITY ROYALS(Wacha) +157 over New York Yankees(Schlittler)(Lose 4-2)

Kansas City Royals(Wacha) vs New York Yankees(Schlittler) UNDER 8-----------Neither team is hitting well,  Royals are on a 2-7 streak and are scoring 21 Runs fewer than Yankees. But, they are hitting 8pts higher.   Wacha and Schlittler are doing well,  with Schlittler going only 5 or 6 innings.   Batters are hitting under .200 vs both pitchers.   India is a Sagittarius, #6, but he is at .174.   Maikel Garcia is hitting okay,  with Pasquantino a pathetic .155.   The real problem with this offense is Salvatore Perez,  who can hit,  but is at .169 now.   Should be low scoring with KC not far off the lead late.(Win 4-2.................Perez 0-4,  Pasquantino hit an HR)

LA ANGELS(Soriano) -130 over San Diego Padres(Waldron)(Win 8-0)

LA ANGELS(Soriano) -1.5(+155) over San Diego Padres(Waldron)-------Soriano is doing exceptionally well, throwing a .103 average over 4 starts.   Angels just went 2-2 at NYY,  with Oswald coming alive.  In fact, Angels have scored 15 more Runs than Padres.(Win 8-0...........Josh Lowe 2-4 HR,  Nolan Schanuel 3-5,  Oswald Peraza 2-4,  Adam Frazier 2-4)
