#2 FURRFIELD GIRL (ML=9/5)


FURRFIELD GIRL - This horse should go right out to the early lead and may never look back. Could wire the field. This thoroughbred probably isn't going to sit chilly. She should bust out of the gate and be one of the first to hit that tight turn. Watch for her down the lane. The 61 last race rating looks mighty good in black and white.

Vulnerable Contenders: #3 FORINT'S CASTLE (ML=3/1), #9 BRENDA J (ML=9/2), #4 CHARITABLE LUCK (ML=6/1),

FORINT'S CASTLE - Doesn't look to have enough positive aspects to justify the price. BRENDA J - I find it hard to play this mount this time out. Make her show you something in a short distance event before you wager on her in a race of 4 1/2 furlongs. Doubtful that the speed rating she recorded on August 24th will hold up in this clash. CHARITABLE LUCK - Trying to beat this one this time at the reward of 6/1.

Top HatGUEST COMMENTARY: The Brain - FURRFIELD GIRL - Watch out for this filly. Dono gives her Lasix for the 2nd straight time. My historical data says this horse should perform well today.

#7 WANNA FOLLOW ME (ML=4/1)


WANNA FOLLOW ME - This gelding hasn't won in his last three starts, but he did win on Jun 10th against better at 1 mile. Serpa and Bedard partnered up are a punter's friend. You have to bet this equine at a track he likes. There's nothing like being comfortable out on the track when it's time to race. Faced tougher last time out at Monmouth Park. Based on Equibase class ratings, this is a weaker field, so I will put this one on my list of contenders in this race.

Vulnerable Contenders: #2 THEYALLCOMEHOME (ML=5/2), #3 DA WINNER IS (ML=3/1), #5 FORT BOONESBOROUGH (ML=6/1),

THEYALLCOMEHOME - No pace in this field to help set-up his closing kick. DA WINNER IS - This gelding likely won't be on the money at the wire. FORT BOONESBOROUGH - Awfully hard to play this steed when he hasn't been showing any gumption of late. This less than sharp equine ran a mediocre speed fig in the last race. He shouldn't run better and will probably get beat in today's race running that fig.

Top HatGUEST COMMENTARY: The Brain - WANNA FOLLOW ME - My calculated info would suggest that some type of wager is indeed necessary given the lone speed that this horse should demonstrate against this group.

# 3 ZABABA 7/2

RORY MOR is my choice. The odds may be right on this horse. Has been running strongly and has among the strongest speed in the race for today's distance. CHICO GRANDE - Is tough not to look at based on speed figures which have been very strong - 80 avg - of late. Will likely be one of the leaders of the pack going into the midpoint of the contest. ZABABA - Shows reliable speed figures on average overall when compared with the rest of this group of horses in this race. Recorded a very good Equibase Speed Fig last time out.

# 8 FOREST MIST 2/1

# 9 BURNING MONEY 12/1

# 3 PLASKA 7/2

FOREST MIST looks to be a formidable contender. He has been running strongly and the speed figures are among the strongest in this group of horses in this race. Trainer has strong win rate (16 percent) at this distance and surface. Has strong early lick and should fare well versus this group. BURNING MONEY - In fine fettle, and coming back almost immediately again this time out. Should be given a shot - I like the figs from the last outing. PLASKA - He has a good opportunity for this event as trainer, Willis, has strong win clip with horses going this distance. Ought to be carefully examined based on the quite good speed fig earned in the last outing.

(955) ATLANTA BRAVES VS (956) WASHINGTON NATIONALS.

Take: UNDER.

Reason: Your free play for Thursday, September 14, 2017 comes in baseball as Atlanta and Washington clash in the NL. Washington is a big park and a weak Atlanta offense is in town. Mike Foltynewicz is throwing well, allowing 1, 2 and 3 runs his last three starts. The Under is 3-1-1 in Foltynewicz's last 5 starts vs. the National League East. Washington is on a 19-7-6 run under the total. Tanner Roark has allowed 3 runs or less in 7 straight starts. Roark (12-9) allowed three runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out six batters through six innings during Thursday's win over Philadelphia. The team is 8-1 under the total when he starts. Play Atlanta/Washington Under the total.

Nailed the Philadelphia Phillies last night for my 400♦ winner, and tonight I'm playing them against the Miami Marlins as my free play.

There are a number of factors that do it for me with this game, especially with the Phils catching the dog price.

First of all, without trying to make light of the situation with Hurricane Irma, I don't know how any team from the Miami area can focus right now. So when the Marlins left South Beach after their series with the Washington Nationals, they had no idea what was looming. To see it on a TV screen has to cloud thinking and have them worried about loved ones.

Second, the Marlins have lost four in a row and nine of 10, they're now 11 1/2 games back in the National League wild card race and they just don't appear to have life in their game any longer.

And third, while the Marlins are the second-best hitting road team in baseball, they're hitting just .235 in September - the sixth-worst batting average in the majors.

Things have fallen apart for the Fish.

Take Philadelphia in this one.

Will lowest scoring NFL Week 1 in years lead to more Unders in Week 2?

The Houston Texans allowed 10 sacks and turned the ball over four times against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.

The NFL is back with Week 1 in the books and thank goodness it’s behind us. Outside of a few games, Week 1 was a painful watch. Few games were competitive in the fourth quarter and many offenses looked uglier than Jason Whitlock’s fedora collection.

Low scoring is the story of the weekend with the Houston Texans, San Francisco 49ers, Cincinnati Bengals, Seattle Seahawks, New York Giants and the Indianapolis Colts all failing to put double digits on the scoreboard.

Last season, the St. Louis Rams – a squad with a historically horrendous offense – averaged a league-worst 262 yards per game. Eight teams tallied fewer than 250 yards of total offense in Week 1.

It’s no surprise that the Under was the best betting trend of the first weekend of the NFL season. The Under went 2-10 on Sunday and finished 5-10 for the week. The average points scored per game is 40.4 after the first 15 contests. The average points scored per game in Week 1 last season was about 4.5 points higher at 44.8.

The data tells us oddsmakers were hitting it out of the park with their Over/Under lines in Week 1 from 2013 to 2016. The differential between the average total and the average game score was less than a point in each year and the Over/Under record was never more than a game off an 8-8 mark.

We can also see that scoring in Week 1 is on a three-year decline and there’s a gulf of 8.5 points between the high year of the sample in 2012 when the average points scored per game was 49.4 and this season.

Bettors will be asking themselves if the low scoring will continue into Week 2. Oddsmakers adjusted to the Week 1 results by setting the lowest average game totals in Week 2 since 2011.

Despite Vegas’ re-calibration, sharp bettors still think there are opportunities moving forward betting the Under on the league’s worst offenses.

Ted Sevransky says he has concerns about the offensive production from the six teams held under 10 points in the first week.

“All six teams had significant offensive line concerns coming into the season, and all six of them failed their first test pretty badly,” Sevransky says. “I have already bet Unders on several of their matchups this week [Week 2] and may still bet more.”

Let’s review each of these offensively-challenged sides and where they play in Week 2.

Cincinnati Bengals

Quarterback Andy Dalton turned the ball over five times in what, very well, could have been his worst career outing as a pro player. The Bengals put up a goose egg on the scoreboard marking the first time they’ve been shut out since Week 7 in 2014.

After the game Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis said, “I don’t know if I’ve ever been in such a disappointing football game.”

Dating back to last year, the Under is now 8-1 in Cincy’s last nine regular season games. The Bengals have had a middle of the pack offense for the last three years. It’s safe to assume they’ll finish with around the 15th best offense again this season.

The lowest total (38.5) on the board is Thursday night’s game between the Texans and Bengals.

Houston Texans

Houston allowed 10 sacks and turned the ball over four times against Jacksonville on Sunday. Texans coach Bill O’Brien benched his starting quarterback after the first two quarters of the season.

We don’t know yet if the Texans will stick with rookie DeShaun Watson under center or if they’ll go back to Tom Savage on Thursday against Cincinnati.

The offensive line is a major concern and it sure would help if the team could come to terms with their best lineman. Left tackle Duane Brown, a three-time Pro Bowler, is still holding out for a new contract.

Five of the Jags’ 10 sacks on Sunday came when they rushed just four defenders.

Indianapolis Colts

Quarterback Andrew Luck is ruled out against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 2 which means bettors are likely to see another week with Scott Tolzien under center for the Colts. Without Luck, there’s a good argument to be made that Indy is the least talented team in the league.

The total for the Cards-Colts game opened at 44.5.

New York Giants

The G-Men are another case of a club that was missing its best player in Week 1. Receiver Odell Beckham Jr. didn’t play because of an ankle sprain, although the Giants lack of scoring punch isn’t a one-game problem.

New York hasn’t scored more than 20 points in a game since Week 12 of last season and that game was against the Cleveland Browns. The Under is now 8-1 in the Giants’ last nine regular season games.

The line on this game has yet to be released as oddsmakers wait to hear on the availability of Beckham Jr.

Seattle Seahawks

The offensive line continues to be a problem for the Seahawks. Their starting left tackle went on the IR in preseason and there was no real effort made at replacing him besides looking at their own depth chart.

Seattle’s offense used to be run-orientated but last year the club finished 25th in rushing yards per game. There’s still a lot of talent on the offensive side of the ball and Green Bay’s defense may prove to be an above average unit as the season progresses.

Seattle hosts its division rival San Fran on Sunday and the total is set at 43.5.

San Francisco 49ers

Speaking of those Niners – they’re coming off a game which they failed to find the end zone once. The Niners abandoned the run game after the Panthers scored on their first possession in the second half to make it 20-0.

A 70-30 pass/run ratio isn’t going to lead to many wins or scores for the 49ers considering Brian Hoyer is their starting quarterback and Pierre Garcon projects to be their best receiver.

NFL Week 2 lines that make you go hmmm...
Peter Korner

If you like the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 2, you might just want to come back on the weekend and see where the line sits.

Longtime Las Vegas oddsmaker Peter Korner sizes up this week’s NFL schedule and picks out some of the lines making him go “hmmm...” in Week 2, including a curious opening number put up by one sportsbook for the Vikings-Steelers game that may end up being a better number than their re-post.

Houston Texans at Cincinnati Bengals (-5, 38.5)

NFL week two kicks off a Thursday night game which pits two teams that clearly under achieved in their respective openers.

Houston visits Cincinnati and questions outweigh answers for each team involved in this contest. The Texans will be entering practice week with the full understanding that QB Deshaun Watson will be starting. Though he didn’t embarrass himself in his debut, it will take more than the limited time he had under center to truly master the position at the professional level.

There’s always a tendency when a back-up player enters the action and performs well to have a letdown of sorts the next time out. That’s because the energy and spontaneity is short lived and the pack catches up to the leader - that will likely be the case with Watson.

In the case of the Bengals, they are counting on QB Andy Dalton‘s return to form after his disastrous opener. A little ying-yang for both quarterbacks.

This line opened a very questionable -3 on the home favorites and was quickly unmasked as a horrible starting point. As of Tuesday, the general consensus was already tipping it to -5. I say, this is still too low and think the line will be at -6 to -6.5 by kickoff.

What appears to be more of a must-win game for the Bengals is translating into heavy wood on Cincinnati early in the week, and most likely all the way through Sunday. If there’s going to be any Houston action, you can bet on it coming very late when underdog backers see the line has stalled.

Chicago Bears at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-7, 43)

Chicago visits Tampa Bay and I agree with the knee-jerk reaction of the early money on Tampa Bay.

This opened at -6.5 and by Tuesday was a universal -7. The advantage for chalk players in this game is that it will take a monumental amount of money to get off the key -7, so there’s no need to rush in on this game early in the week.

A huge advantage for Tampa Bay in having their opener canceled is that the Buccaneers don’t have any tape to give to the Bears to dissect. Tampa Bay torched this team last year in Florida and the circumstances seem right for the results to mirror that game. You always like to be on the side of the team that has the incentive and energy, and with this game being possibly the first major event since the horrific weather in the south, the unity of the team and its fans may peak perfectly for the home town Bucs. Emotion is a big factor for almost anything in life.

At -7, you might think the wise guys take the dog. I say let them. This line won’t get any higher. It’s the typical game that will be teased down to PK for most parlay players. Call this a gut feeling, but this game gets out of hand for Chicago and the white towel is raised early.

Minnesota Vikings at Pittsburgh Steelers (-6.5, 45)

Minnesota is at Pittsburgh in a game that’s been slow to be exposed by bookmakers early in the week.

In a curious sequence of events, Pinnacle sported a -4 on the home favorites and within a minute, took down the game and reposted at -7. My feeling was that the original -4 was good. Those bookmakers who like to copy the line and hang whatever is out there, posted -7’s and have already been hit on the dog and are resting at –6.5.

At this point, I definitely see more money being drawn to the underdog after a solid performance by the Vikings in Week 1. I know the public has a short memory, me being in that group as well, but seeing the Steelers struggle with the Browns and Minnesota’s sharp play, I have to think this line will be closer to the original -4 than -7 by kickoff.

So, with that being said, the value on Minnesota is to grab the line early in the week. If you like the Steelers, you might just want to come back on the weekend and see where the line sits and benefit from the over-reactionaries. My feeling is that this game is way closer than the spread indicates.

Pinnacle will realize that their first opinion was their best in this game. They, like the rest of the sportsbooks, will probably need Pittsburgh by the time this game closes.

Thursday Night Football Betting Preview and Odds: Texans at Bengals

Houston Texans at Cincinnati Bengals (-6.5, 38)

The Houston Texans and Cincinnati Bengals were among a glut of teams who put forth feeble offensive performances in their respective season openers. Coming off lopsided losses - each at home - to division opponents, the Bengals and Texans have a short week to solve their offensive woes when they square off in Cincinnati on Thursday night.

Awful quarterback performances low-lighted the Week 1 efforts for each team and there could be a change under center for Houston, which benched starter Tom Savage at halftime in favor of rookie first-round pick Deshaun Watson. "We’re going to do what’s best for the team," said Texans coach Bill O'Brien of the potential quarterback controversy after dealing with the failed Brock Osweiler fiasco last year. "We always try to do what’s best for the team, and try to go from there.” Cincinnati was shut out (20-0 by Baltimore) at home for the first time since 2001 as quarterback Andy Dalton matched a career worst with four interceptions and committed five turnovers. “I have to put this one behind us,” acknowledged Dalton. “I know the type of player that I am and I can be. I can’t let this affect the next one.”

TV: 8:25 p.m. ET, NFL Network.

LINE HISTORY: The Bengals opened as three-point home favorites but by Thursday morning that number was all of the way up to -6.5. The total hit the betting boards at 38 and remains on that opening number.

POWER RANKINGS: Texans (+0.5) - Bengals (0) + home field (-3) = Bengals -2.5

INJURY REPORT:

Texans - DE J. Watt (Probable, Finger), QB D. Watson (Probable, Ankle), DE J. Clowney (Probable, Foot), S A. Hal (Probable, Hip), C N. Martin (Probable, Ankle), RB A. Blue (Questionable, Ankle), CB K. Johnson (Question, Knee), LB B. McKinney (Questionable, Knee), G J. Allen (Doubful, Ankle), TE R. Griffin (Out, Concussion), LB B. Cushing (Out, Concussion), WR B. Ellington (Out, Concussion), TE S. Anderson (Out, Concussion), WR W. Fuller (Out, Collarbone), T D. Brown (Out, Holdout), TE C. Fiedorowicz (Out, Concussion), T D. Newton (I-R, Knee), WR D. Gray (I-R, Knee).

Bengals - WR J. Ross (Probable, Knee), TE C. Uzomah (Probable, Leg), S S. Williams (Probable, Elbow), CB D. Kirkpatrick (Probable, Foot), CB J. Shaw (Probable, Ankle), DE M. Johnson (Doubtful, Concussion), G T. Hopkins (Out, Knee), LB V. Burfict (Out, Suspension), QB J. Driskel (Out, Thumb), HB T. Carson (I-R, Ankle), TE M. Schreck (I-R, Knee), HB C. Peerman (I-R, Shoulder), WR J. Kumerow (I-R, Leg).

ABOUT THE TEXANS (0-1 SU, 0-1 ATS, 0-1 O/U): Reports out of Houston indicate that Watson, who guided Clemson to the national championship in January, will be under center for Thursday's matchup if he is not hindered by an ankle injury during Tuesday's practice. Watson was 12 of 23 for 102 yards with one touchdown and one interception, but he and Savage absorbed a combined 10 sacks behind a line that is still missing left tackle Duane Brown (contract holdout) and will be without guard Jeff Allen. Perhaps an even bigger issue facing the Texans is a lengthy injury list that features five players in the NFL's concussion protocol, including the team's top three tight ends. Despite the return of start defensive end J.J. Watt, limited to three games last season due to back surgery, Houston allowed 155 yards rushing in the 29-7 loss to Jacksonville.

ABOUT THE BENGALS (0-1 SU, 0-1 ATS, 0-1 O/U): Lost in the abysmal performance by Dalton, who tossed three of his interceptions in the first half, was the sturdy play of Cincinnati's defense, which surrendered a total of 268 yards (157 rushing) to the Ravens. Dalton, who is already halfway to last season's interception total of eight, compiled a wretched 28.4 passer rating after completing 16 of 31 for 170 yards, with star wideout A.J. Green leading the way with five catches for 74 yards. The Bengals need to sort out their running game -- Giovani Bernard, less than 10 months removed from knee surgery, rushed for 40 yards on seven carries but highly touted rookie Joe Mixon managed only nine yards on eight rushes. Rookie wideout John Ross, the ninth overall pick who was clocked in 4.22 in the 40 at the NFL combine, is expected to make his NFL debut.

TRENDS:

* Texans are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 Thursday games.
* Bengals are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a double-digit loss at home.
* Under is 7-1 in Texans last 8 games following a ATS loss.
* Under is 9-2 in Bengals last 11 vs. a team with a losing record.
* Texans are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings in Cincinnati.

CONSENSUS: The public is siding with the road underdog Texans at a rate of 56 percent and the Under is picking up 55 percent of the totals action.

Chicago White Sox at Detroit 1:10 ET
Tigers over White Sox- These two also-rans are a combined 54 games under .500 with the White Sox having won four of their last five trying to climb out of the AL Central cellar. Detroit has lost five straight and 11 of their past 13 and holds a 2-game lead over Chicago. This is the first of an 11-game home stand for the Tigers who are fresh off a sweep to the Indians as they won their 21 straight game yesterday. James Shields (3-6, 5.40 ERA) gets the start for the White Sox and he has allowed 23 home runs in 98 innings and is 8-8 with a 4.37 ERA in 24 career starts against Detroit. The Tigers will start rookie Chad Bell (0-2, 5.79) and he picks up his first win here. Take DETROIT!

Money Line: -127 Miami

Sportsbook:
Bodog

Miami Marlins -119

The Marlins are worthy of a flyer here on Thursday night.

Miami starter Jose Urena has been stellar in his recent run. He's won 4 of his last 5 decisions overall and last time out against Philadelphia is he was dominant. Urena allowed just 1 run over 7.0 innings of work, as he has been in some kind of groove lately.

Jake Thompson counters and he's been horrible. He allowed 7 runs over a 5.0 inning span last time out, which marked his 3rd horrific outing in his last 4.

Some trends to note. Phillies are 1-4 in their last 5 games following a win. Phillies are 4-9 in Thompsons last 13 starts.

Given the strong pitching edge, Miami is worth a move.

Back Miami.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

10* FREE MLB PICK (Royals +190)

It's not easy going against a team that's won 21 straight, but I think it's worth a shot here given the near 2 to 1 odds we are catching on the Royals. I know the talk is about going for the all-time record of 26 straight wins, but they did just set the AL record with their 21st win yesterday. I think there was some pressure and desire to get to 21 and wouldn't be shocked if they suffered a bit of a letdown here against a Royals team that you know would love nothing more than to put an end to this thing. KC will send out Jaob Junus, who has really been throwing the ball well, as he's 5-0 with a 3.18 ERA in his last 8 appearances, 6 of which were starts. Indians will send out Josh Tomlin and they are just 1-5 in his last 6 starts against a division opponent and 3-9 in his last 12 series openers. Give me the Royals +190!

Jack's Free Pick Thursday: Baltimore Orioles +177

The Baltimore Orioles are showing tremendous value today as +177 road underdogs to the New York Yankees. The Orioles are fighting to stay alive in the wild card race, and the Yankees are a team that they are chasing, making this a big series for them.

Wade Miley has pitched very well here down the stretch. He is 4-3 with a 3.25 ERA over his last eight starts. In two starts against the Yankees in 2017, Miley has given up just 2 earned runs in 10 innings for a 1.80 ERA.

Masahiro Tanaka is consistently overvalued for the Yankees. He is 11-1 with a 4.82 ERA in 27 starts this season. In two starts against the Orioles in 2017, Tanaka has allowed 10 earned runs in 10 2/3 innings for an 8.43 ERA.

Baltimore is 14-6 (+8.5 Units) against the money line after allowing 1 run or less this season. The Yankees are 0-4 in Tanaka's last four starts vs. Baltimore. Bet the Orioles Thursday.

Play on: Blue Jays +146 at 5Dimes

Free Pick on Toronto +

I like the value here with the Blue Jays as a big road underdog against the Twins Thursday night. While Toronto is all but out of the Wild Card race, I don't see this team throwing in the towel and they have continued to fight with a 4-1 record over their last 5.

The value here has a lot to do with Blue Jays starter Brett Anderson, who has pitched effectively in all 3 starts since being picked up by Toronto. He's pitched into the 6th inning of each outing and now allowed more than 3 runs in any start. The most impressive stat is that he's not walked a single batter during this stretch.

Minnesota will counter with Jose Berrios, but he could find it difficult here as Toronto sluggers Josh Donaldson and Jose Bautista both have excellent numbers in their careers at the Twins' Target Field. It has a lot to do with the Blue Jays 12-5 edge int he series over the last 3 years. It's also worth noting that the Twins are just 1-7 in Berrios' last 8 starts in a series opener and 1-4 in his last 5 vs a team with a losing record. Take Toronto!

Preview: White Sox at Tigers

The Chicago White Sox have a chance to climb out of the cellar in the American League Central with a good showing in a four-game series at the Detroit Tigers, which begins with a matinee affair Thursday. The White Sox have won four of their last five after a 5-3 win at Kansas City on Wednesday and they enter this series trailing the fourth-place Tigers by two games.

Chicago, which leads the season series with Detroit by an 8-7 margin, has held down last place every day since July 8. Jose Abreu had the go-ahead sacrifice fly in the top of the ninth inning for the White Sox on Wednesday, his ninth RBI in the last five games. The Tigers waved the white flag several weeks ago with a series of trades and have continued their free-fall with five straight losses, the last three of which came at the hands of the red-hot Cleveland Indians. Veteran James Shields gets the nod in the opener for Chicago opposite 28-year-old rookie Chad Bell for Detroit.

TV: 1:10 p.m. ET, CSN Chicago, FSN Detroit

PITCHING MATCHUP: White Sox RH James Shields (3-6, 5.40 ERA) vs. Tigers LH Chad Bell (0-2, 5.79)

Shields snapped an 11-game winless streak with seven stellar innings in a victory over San Francisco on Saturday. He limited the Giants to a run and two hits to record his fourth quality start over a span of seven outings, all after producing just two through his first 11 appearances. The 35-year-old yielded a run and two hits across 5 1/3 innings against Detroit to begin the season and he is 8-8 with a 4.37 ERA lifetime versus the Tigers.

Bell made 19 relief appearances for Detroit before joining the rotation this month. He gave up five runs over four innings of his first career start before improving a bit at Toronto his last time out, allowing two runs in 4 2/3 frames. The Tennessee native has a 6.28 ERA in 10 games (one start) at home.

WALK-OFFS

1. Abreu is batting .377 with three home runs against the Tigers this year.

2. Detroit has scored nine runs during its five-game slide.

3. White Sox SS Tim Anderson is 11-for-23 with four stolen bases during a five-game hitting streak.

Preview: Athletics at Red Sox

Drew Pomeranz has won nine of his last 10 decisions to insert his name among the contenders for the American League Cy Young Award while strengthening the Boston Red Sox in their quest to win the AL East title. The 28-year-old looks to bolster both bids on Thursday afternoon as the Red Sox play the rubber match of their three-game series versus the visiting Oakland Athletics.

Jed Lowrie drove in a pair of runs to highlight his three-hit performance in Wednesday's 7-3 rout, improving to 11-for-23 with two homers, six RBIs and five runs scored this season versus his former team. Lowrie has hit safely in 10 of his last 11 games overall and is 4-for-7 with a homer in his career against Pomeranz. AL West cellar-dwelling Oakland hasn't had much reason to cheer this season, but it has won six of seven outings overall and four of six encounters against the Red Sox. California native Dustin Pedroia collected back-to-back three-hit performances to extend his hitting streak to 26 games versus Oakland, although Boston's de facto captain saw his team's lead in the AL East over the second-place New York Yankees trimmed to three games.

TV: 1:35 p.m. ET, MLB Network, NBCSN California (Oakland), NESN (Boston)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Athletics RH Daniel Gossett (4-8, 5.02 ERA) vs. Red Sox LH Drew Pomeranz (15-5, 3.35)

Gossett picked up his first win since Aug. 2 in the opener of a doubleheader on Saturday after recording a career-high seven strikeouts and allowing one run over six innings in an 11-1 rout of Houston. "What I take out of this one is I got to be consistent," the 24-year-old said. "Location was a little bit better. It was OK." Gossett will be making his 15th career start and first versus Boston.

Pomeranz improved to 8-2 in 14 starts at Fenway Park on Friday after permitting two runs on as many hits in six innings of a 9-3 victory versus Tampa Bay. The left-hander was left with a no-decision at Oakland on May 20, as he yielded two runs while striking out six in just four innings. The short outing didn't sit well with Pomeranz, who was captured on video of having a spirited conversation with manager John Farrell in the dugout before being told to hit the showers.

WALK-OFFS

1. Boston SS Xander Bogaerts is 4-for-7 with three runs scored in the series.

2. Oakland rookie 1B Matt Olson is 7-for-15 with three home runs, six runs scored and six RBIs in his last five contests.

3. Red Sox LF Andrew Benintendi is 8-for-18 with four doubles, five RBIs and three runs scored during his four-game hitting streak.

Preview: Reds at Cardinals

The St. Louis Cardinals' playoff hopes appeared to take a devastating hit when longtime ace Adam Wainwright had to go on the disabled list last month with an elbow injury. Enter rookie Luke Weaver, who goes for his fifth victory in as many starts when the Cardinals wrap up their three-game series against the visiting Cincinnati Reds on Thursday afternoon.

St. Louis had its four-game winning streak snapped with Wednesday's 6-0 setback, suffering only its third loss in 13 games while falling to 6-9 against the Reds this year. Cleanup hitter Jose Martinez is 4-for-8 in the series and has hit safely in 13 of 14 games for the Cardinals, who dropped into third place in the National League Central - one-half game behind Milwaukee and three back of the first-place Chicago Cubs. Cincinnati reached 200 homers for the seventh time in franchise history in style as Eugenio Suarez hit the team's seventh grand slam of the season - two shy of the club record. Weaver will be opposed by another rookie in Cincinnati's Amir Garrett, who blanked St. Louis on two hits over six innings on April 7 in his major-league debut but is 0-5 over his last seven starts.

TV: 1:45 p.m. ET, FSN Ohio (Cincinnati), FSN Midwest (St. Louis)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Reds LH Amir Garrett (3-7, 7.39 ERA) vs. Cardinals RH Luke Weaver (5-1, 2.16)

Making his first start since June 20 after a lengthy stint in the minors, Garrett was plagued by the same issue that has sabotaged his season - an inability to keep the ball in the park. The 25-year-old took the loss against the Mets in New York on Friday after giving up four runs and five hits, including three homers. Garrett has surrendered a staggering 22 home runs in only 63 1/3 innings.

Weaver remained perfect in four starts since replacing Wainwright, blanking Pittsburgh on seven hits over 5 2/3 innings on Friday. The 24-year-old has permitted only four runs in those four outings while amassing 36 strikeouts against four walks in a span of 25 1/3 frames. Weaver faced the Reds in his final appearance of 2016 and was hammered for five runs while retiring only two batters.

WALK-OFFS

1. Reds LF Adam Duvall has hit safely in 10 straight games against St. Louis.

2. Cardinals 3B Matt Carpenter has drawn 10 walks in his last five games, giving him 99 on the season.

3. The Reds placed RHP Drew Storen on the 10-day disabled list due to a sprained right elbow.

Preview: Rockies at Diamondbacks

The Colorado Rockies' hopes of overtaking the Arizona Diamondbacks for the first wild-card spot in the National League took a hit on Wednesday as the club had its six-game winning streak halted with an 8-2 setback. The Rockies look to begin another run when they visit the Diamondbacks on Thursday afternoon for the finale of their four-game series.

Colorado pulled within three games of Arizona by winning the first two games of the set, but the deficit increased with Thursday's loss as the club managed only six hits. Trevor Story registered two of them while DJ LeMahieu belted his eighth homer of the season for the Rockies, who own a three-game lead over Milwaukee for the second wild card. Arizona is wrapping up a seven-game homestand during which it has gone 2-4. A.J. Pollock was the offensive star in Wednesday's victory, going 3-for-4 with a homer and four RBIs, while J.D. Martinez continued his torrid offensive pace as he registered a double and drove in a run to improve to 21-for-47 with nine homers and 19 RBIs in 11 games this month.

TV: 3:40 p.m. ET, AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain (Colorado), FSN Arizona

PITCHING MATCHUP: Rockies RH Chad Bettis (1-2, 4.98 ERA) vs. Diamondbacks RH Zack Godley (7-7, 3.18)

It took six starts, but Bettis finally recorded his first victory of the season on Saturday after missing the first 4 1/2 months due to his battle with testicular cancer. The 28-year-old Texan gave up four runs - three earned - and six hits over five innings against the Dodgers in Los Angeles, striking out five without issuing a walk. Bettis is 1-1 with an unimpressive 7.30 ERA in nine career appearances (six starts) versus Arizona.

Godley settled for a no-decision against San Diego on Saturday after allowing two runs and four hits over seven innings. The 27-year-old native of South Carolina recorded nine strikeouts and did not walk a batter after issuing a whopping six free passes in a victory at Colorado six days earlier. Godley also won his first career start versus the Rockies on June 22 in Denver after making two relief appearances against the club last season - both in the Mile High City.

WALK-OFFS

1. Diamondbacks 1B Paul Goldschmidt went 2-for-4 on Wednesday to join Luis Gonzalez as the only players to register 1,000 hits with the club.

2. LeMahieu is 7-for-17 over his last four games and has hit safely in 20 of his last 21 contests.

3. Arizona 3B Jake Lamb plated two runs on Wednesday to give him 101 RBIs. Lamb and Goldschmidt (112) are the second duo in team history and first since 1999 (Matt Williams - 142, Jay Bell - 112, Gonzalez -111 and Steve Finley - 103) to reach the 100-RBI plateau.

Preview: Braves at Nationals

The Washington Nationals enter Thursday’s finale of their home series against Atlanta knowing they are heading for the playoffs, and probably happy the Braves will not be waiting for them in the postseason. The National League East champions were routed 8-2 by Atlanta on Wednesday, falling for the sixth time in nine home games against a Braves team that is 12 games under .500 but one that has pounded Washington pitching for 16 runs on 24 hits in the series.

The Nationals got Jayson Werth back into the lineup Wednesday after the right fielder missed five games with a sore left shoulder, but saw ace Max Scherzer ripped for seven runs and six walks in six-plus innings. Shortstop Trea Turner stole his 40th base of the season in the loss and is 10-for-24 through six games of Washington’s 10-game homestand. Atlanta has won four in a row and six of its past seven - its best week-long stretch since mid-July. Braves rookie second baseman Ozzie Albies extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a single and two walks in Wednesday’s victory, raising his average to .350 in his past 26 contests.

TV: 7:05 p.m. ET, FSN Southeast (Atlanta), MASN2 (Washington)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Braves RH Mike Foltynewicz (10-12, 4.74 ERA) vs. Nationals RH Tanner Roark (12-9, 4.48)

Foltynewicz was 10-6 with a 3.94 ERA after beating the Marlins on Aug. 5, but has lost his past six starts with an 8.07 ERA and a .331 opponents’ batting average. His past three starts have been far better, allowing only six runs in 17 1/3 innings, but the Braves have scored only one run total in those three contests. Foltynewicz faces Washington for the fourth time in 2017, going 1-1 with a 6.61 ERA in the first three.

Roark has been outstanding after recording an 8.31 ERA in June, going 6-3 across his past 11 appearances (10 starts) with a 3.36 ERA and 69 strikeouts in 67 innings. He won for the third time in his past four starts Sept. 7 against Philadelphia, allowing three runs in six innings - six days after striking out 10 in seven innings against Milwaukee. Roark is 0-1 in two games (one start) against the Braves in 2017, giving up 10 runs on 13 hits in 10 innings.

WALK-OFFS

1. Nationals 2B Daniel Murphy, who is batting .435 during his current six-game hitting streak, did not play Wednesday due to a stiff neck.

2. Atlanta CF Ender Inciarte, third in the majors in hits (187), did not play Wednesday due to a jammed thumb and reserve OF Lane Adams got the start while collecting a career-high three hits.

3. Turner’s big night raised his career average against the Braves to .411 in 27 games.

Having finally put a halt to a six-game losing streak, the Baltimore Orioles face what could be a make-or-break series when they visit the wild card-leading New York Yankees on Thursday in the opener of a four-game set. The series will wrap up a 10-game road trip for Baltimore, which has scored a total of 12 runs over its past seven contests.

The stakes are high for both teams as the Yankees trail first-place Boston by three games in the American League East while the Orioles are 4 1/2 games behind Minnesota for the second wild card. New York, which has won four series in a row, took two of three in in Baltimore last week and steamrolled the Orioles in a three-game sweep at Yankee Stadium in June, outscoring them 38-8. Aaron Judge was 7-for-12 with three homers and six RBIs while Gary Sanchez went 6-for-13 with two homers and seven RBIs for the Yankees in that June onslaught. Baltimore, which has played four straight one-run games, sends left-hander Wade Miley to the mound to oppose right-hander Masahiro Tanaka.

TV: 7:05 p.m. ET, MLB Network, MASN (Baltimore), YES (New York)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Orioles LH Wade Miley (8-12, 4.96 ERA) vs. Yankees RH Masahiro Tanaka (11-11, 4.82)

Miley lost his second straight start last time out against white-hot Cleveland, giving up four runs on six hits over 5 2/3 innings after yielding just two runs over six frames versus Toronto in his previous turn. He has established a career high with 84 walks, including seven in five scoreless innings versus the Yankees in his season debut. Starlin Castro is only 3-for-24 against Miley.

Tanaka's three-start winning streak ended with a thud last week in Texas, when he was throttled for seven runs on eight hits over four-plus innings. The 28-year-old from Japan pitched seven innings in each of his previous three turns, surrendering a total of five runs. Manny Machado and Jonathan Schoop are each 4-for-20 against Tanaka, who is 0-1 with an 8.44 ERA in two starts versus the Orioles this season.

WALK-OFFS

1. The Yankees are averaging 10 runs in their last six games against Baltimore.

2. Machado is batting .191 against the Yankees this season but has four homers and 10 RBIs in the 47 at-bats.

3. Yankees 1B Greg Bird (back spasms) is expecting back in the lineup as early as Thursday after missing the past three games.

Preview: Royals at Indians

The Cleveland Indians own the longest winning streak in American League history and have their sights set on recording the second-longest run in major league annals when they host the Kansas City Royals on Thursday in the opener of a four-game set. Cleveland defeated Detroit 5-3 on Wednesday for its 21st straight victory, breaking the record set by the 2002 Oakland Athletics and matching the 1935 Chicago Cubs.

“Our guys are enjoying it, and they should,” Indians manager Terry Francona, whose club has manhandled opponents 139-35 during the streak and reduced its magic number to win the AL Central to four, told reporters. “When you do something and do it the right way, you should enjoy it.” Cleveland is also about to get stronger as relief ace Andrew Miller will be activated Thursday after a second stint on the disabled list because of knee tendinitis. Kansas City, which lost the second, third and fourth games of the Indians' streak by a combined 20-0, is four games behind Minnesota for the AL's second wild card spot after a 5-3 loss to the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday. Cleveland's Josh Tomlin and Kansas City rookie Jake Junis have each won five straight decisions with Tomlin winning both starts since returning from the disabled list (hamstring).

TV: 7:10 p.m. ET, MLB Network, FSN Kansas City, STO (Cleveland)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Royals RH Jake Junis (7-2, 4.34 ERA) vs. Indians RH Josh Tomlin (9-9, 5.13)

Junis received a no-decision after allowing two runs, eight hits and a walk while striking out seven over 6 1/3 innings of Kansas City's 5-2 victory over Minnesota on Saturday. The 24-year-old Illinois native is unbeaten in his last eight appearances, posting a 3.18 ERA during that span to lower his season number by 1.32. Junis, who has a 2.48 ERA in his last six starts, pitched 2 1/3 innings of relief in the Royals' 10-1 loss to Cleveland on Aug. 18, yielding four runs and five hits in his only career appearance versus the Indians.

Tomlin permitted two runs and four hits while striking out three across five innings of a 4-2 victory over Baltimore on Saturday. The 32-year-old Texan is unbeaten in his last seven starts and has a 2.57 ERA with 27 strikeouts and two walks over his last six turns covering 35 innings. Salvador Perez is 18-for-38 and Eric Hosmer 8-for-41 with two home runs versus Tomlin, who is 10-5 with a 3.92 ERA in 24 appearances (20 starts) versus Kansas City - 1-1, 1.93 in three starts this season.

WALK-OFFS

1. Cleveland has more homers (40) than the total runs its opponents have scored during the streak.

2. Indians starters are 19-0 with a 1.70 ERA during the streak.

3. Cleveland has trailed for only four of the 189 innings during the streak.

Preview: Mets at Cubs

The Chicago Cubs are coming off their biggest offensive output of the season, but they hope they’ve saved some runs to support a rookie making his major-league debut on the mound Thursday. The Cubs look to keep the bats going behind Jen-Ho Tseng when they wrap up a three-game series against the visiting New York Mets.


The Cubs have won the first two contests, outscoring the Mets 25-8 and matching their season-high for runs in a 17-5 rout Wednesday. Another offensive outburst would be beneficial to Tseng, a command pitcher who learned Wednesday he will make his debut in the heat of a pennant race. Chicago leads the National League Central by 2 1/2 games over Milwaukee and is three games ahead of St. Louis. The Mets have dropped three straight following a four-game winning streak, and they’ve allowed 35 runs during the skid.

TV: 8:05 p.m. ET, SNY (New York), ABC 7 (Chicago)


PITCHING MATCHUP: Mets RH Seth Lugo (6-4, 4.64 ERA) vs. Cubs RH Jen-Ho Tseng (NR)

Lugo struggled in his first two starts after coming off the disabled list on Aug. 27, but he was dominant last time out. The 27-year-old allowed four hits and a walk over six scoreless innings against Cincinnati on Friday, earning his first win since July 25. Lugo has pitched four scoreless innings over two relief appearances against the Cubs.

Tseng is set for his major-league debut after an outstanding season in the minors. The 22-year-old from Taiwan was 13-4 with a 2.54 ERA in 24 starts across Double-A and Triple-A this season, earning the club’s Minor League Pitcher of the Year honor. Tseng struck out 122 batters and walked just 38 in 145 1/3 innings in the minors this year.


WALK-OFFS

1. The Cubs have hit 204 home runs this season, the fourth-highest total in franchise history.

2. Mets INF Jose Reyes led off Wednesday’s game with a home run to tie Darryl Strawberry for the second-most extra-base hits in franchise history with 469.

3. Chicago OF Albert Almora entered in the seventh inning Wednesday and had a triple, a home run, and six RBIs in two at-bats.

Preview: Mariners at Rangers

Felix Hernandez returns from his second shoulder injury of the season when the Seattle Mariners visit the Texas Rangers on Thursday for the finale of their four-game series. The 31-year-old Hernandez has missed the past six-plus weeks with his latest injury as his most-recent outing was a no-decision against the Rangers on July 31.

The Mariners are hoping Hernandez and staff ace James Paxton (slated to return from a pectoral injury on Friday) can provide a boost as they try to chase down Minnesota for the American League's second wild-card spot. Mike Zunino reached base four times and clubbed two solo homers in Wednesday's 8-1 victory as Seattle remained 3 1/2 games behind the Twins while Texas dropped fell four games back. The Rangers were outscored 18-4 in back-to-back losses after winning the series opener and are just 5-10 against the Mariners this season. Texas slugger Joey Gallo is homerless in 11 straight games since going deep on Sept. 1 and appears unlikely to duplicate the 11 blasts he smashed in August.

TV: 8:05 p.m. ET, ROOT Northwest (Seattle), FSN Southwest (Texas)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Mariners RH Felix Hernandez (5-4, 4.28 ERA) vs. Rangers RH Andrew Cashner (9-9, 3.19)

Hernandez hasn't been all that stellar even when healthy this season, serving up 16 homers in just 13 starts - his career worst is 23. The veteran has pitched more than six innings on just three occasions and hasn't posted a single 10-strikeout performance - stunning for a guy with 2,333 in his career. Hernandez is 1-0 with a 3.55 ERA in two starts against the Rangers this year and 19-23 with a 3.93 ERA in 52 career outings.

Cashner has pitched well over his last three starts, going 2-0 with a 1.71 ERA. He settled for a no-decision against the New York Yankees in his last turn, when he allowed one run and four hits over seven innings. Cashner is 1-1 with a 2.60 ERA in three starts against Seattle this season and 1-3 with a 3.26 ERA in seven career appearances (six starts).

WALK-OFFS

1. Rangers C Robinson Chirinos is 8-for-18 during his six-game hitting streak and has reached base in each of his last 27 contests.

2. Mariners RF Mitch Haniger is 7-for-14 with a homer in the series and 26-for-55 with four homers and 11 RBIs over his last 13 games.

3. Texas 1B Mike Napoli (stress reaction in right leg) missed his third consecutive game Wednesday and is questionable for the finale.

Preview: Blue Jays at Twins

A turnaround in their play at home has the Minnesota Twins in control of the second wild card in the American League as they bid for their first postseason berth since 2010. The Twins have won 10 of their last 12 at Target Field as they prepare to host the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday for the opener of their four-game series.

Eddie Rosario belted a two-run, walk-off homer in the 10th inning Wednesday as Minnesota completed a two-game sweep of San Diego and maintained its two-game lead for the final wild-card spot. It was the eighth homer of the series and second in as many nights for Rosario, who helped the Twins reach the .500 mark at home for the first time since May 5. While Minnesota set a Target Field record with seven homers in the series opener, the pitching has allowed one run and 11 hits over 19 innings. Toronto's four-game winning streak was halted by Baltimore despite three hits from Kendrys Morales, leaving the Blue Jays 8 1/2 games behind the Twins.

TV: 8:10 p.m. ET, Sportsnet (Toronto), FSN North (Minnesota)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Blue Jays LH Brett Anderson (3-3, 5.90 ERA) vs. Twins RH José BerrÃ*os (12-7, 3.94)

Anderson, who started the season with the Chicago Cubs, recorded his first win in his third start with the Blue Jays, limiting Detroit to two runs and five hits over six innings on Saturday. He registered a quality start in his previous outing, allowing three runs over six frames in a no-decision at Baltimore. Anderson is 3-3 with a 3.80 ERA in eight career appearances (six starts) against the Twins.

Berrios has leveled off after opening the season by winning seven of his first eight starts, but he is coming off a strong effort in a no-decision at Kansas City in which he allowed two runs over seven innings. He has alternated strong and poor outings in his last six turns, working seven frames in half of them while yielding a combined 16 runs in the other three. Morales is 1-for-7 versus Berrios.

WALK-OFFS

1. Rosario has hit safely in seven straight games and has recorded three homers and nine RBIs in his last five contests.

2. Morales is 9-for-23 during his six-game hitting streak.

3. Twins LHP Adalberto Mejia was activated from the 10-day disabled list and will start on Saturday.

Preview: Astros at Angels

The Los Angeles Angels have ended a scoring funk and aim to win a series against the team with best record in the American League when they host the Houston Astros on Thursday for the finale of their three-game series. Los Angeles recorded eight extra-base hits in a 9-1 trouncing of the Astros (87-58) on Wednesday after scoring just 10 runs over its previous five contests.

Luis Valbuena and Justin Upton homered on Wednesday, and Upton's blast was the 250th of his career, gave him 100 RBIs for the season and ended his 14-game homerless drought. The Angels are two games behind Minnesota for the AL's second wild-card berth as they play the third contest of a nine-game homestand that includes sets with Texas and red-hot Cleveland. Houston has a magic number of five to clinch a playoff spot but is struggling with five losses in its last six games. Brian McCann is 26-for-76 with nine homers, five doubles and 28 RBIs against scheduled Angels starter Ricky Nolasco.

TV: 10:07 p.m. ET, MLB Network, AT&T SportsNet-Southwest (Houston), FSN West (Los Angeles)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Astros RH Brad Peacock (10-2, 3.05 ERA) vs. Angels RH Ricky Nolasco (6-13, 5.19)

Peacock is winless in his last six outings but has suffered just one loss during the drought. The 29-year-old has struck out eight or more batters in four of his last five turns and has fanned a career-high 150 this season. Peacock is 0-1 with a 4.09 ERA in three appearances (two starts) against Los Angeles this season and 3-2 with a 4.64 ERA in 10 career appearances (seven starts).

Nolasco lasted just 3 2/3 innings in a loss to Seattle in his last turn - allowing four runs and six hits - and is winless over his last four outings. The 34-year-old has served up a career-worst 34 homers, third-most in the majors. Nolasco is 1-1 with a 3.79 ERA in three starts against the Astros this season and owns a 7-2 mark and 3.82 ERA in 12 career appearances (11 starts).

WALK-OFFS

1. Angels DH Albert Pujols hasn't homered this month despite being 17-for-40 with 12 RBIs.

2. Astros OF Jake Marisnick (thumb) departed Wednesday's game after being hurt on a head-first slide and will fly back to Houston on Thursday to undergo further examination.

3. Los Angeles RHP JC Ramirez (elbow) revealed Wednesday that he has a torn ulnar collateral ligament and is receiving stem-cell injections in hopes of avoiding Tommy John surgery.

Play on: Indians -1½ +105 at 5Dimes

Dave's Thursday Free Play:

1* on Cleveland Indians -1.5 (+105)

The Key: Not only have the Cleveland Indians won a ridiculous 21 straight games, they've also gone 18-3 against the run line during this streak. And now we're getting plus money on the run line with them Thursday. Josh Tomlin hasn't lost a game since June 25. He has gone 5-0 with a 2.57 ERA in his past 6 starts. Tomlin is 1-1 with a 1.93 ERA in 3 games against the Royals this year. Jake Junis sports a 5.56 ERA in 6 road starts for the Royals. Take Cleveland on the Run Line.

MLB | Mariners vs Rangers
Play on: Mariners +103 at 5Dimes

Take the Seattle Mariners with the money-line versus the Texas Rangers listing both starting pitchers Felix Hernandez and Andrew Cashner. Seattle (73-73) won the third game of this series last night by an 8-1 score. The Mariners have then won 7 of their last 10 games after allowing no more than two runs in their last game. Seattle has also won 11 of their last 14 road games against teams with a losing record. Texas (72-73) has now lost 4 of their last 5 games at home. And in their last 14 games against right-handed starting pitchers, the Rangers have lost 10 of these games. Take Seattle with the money-line listing both starting pitchers. Best of luck — Frank.
