Winnipeg Jets vs. Nashville Predators Preview and Predictions 05-10-2018

9th May 2018 by Gracenote
the two best teams in the regular season have battled through six incredible games in the western conference semifinals, and now it is time to decide whether the winnipeg jets or the nashville predators will advance to the conference final. the predators host the jets in thursday's game 7 - the finale of a series in which neither team has won consecutive games, the road team has prevailed four times, and both have the same amount of shots (177) and attempts (338) playing 5-on-5.

"it's a really tight series," nashville captain roman josi told reporters wednesday. "even the games where the score doesn't really show it, they're all tight games. they could've gone either way." the key thursday could be who scores first, as the predators jumped ahead in games 4 and 6 and then deployed a defense-focused mindset in the final two periods to keep the jets at bay. in between, winnipeg survived a first-period onslaught in game 5 before pounding in four second-period goals en route to a 6-2 victory, using the speed and precise passing that nashville's defense negated in games 4 and 6. "have the confidence that you're going to go out and perform at your best," winnipeg coach paul maurice told reporters after wednesday's practice. "enjoy it, the whole part. the nerves before the game, the tension of the game, the excitement of the game."
tv: 8 p.m. et, nbc sports network, cbc, sportsnet, tva
about the jets: winnipeg had chances in game 6 but saw its power play, one of the nhl's best this season, come up empty four times in the 4-0 defeat - three times in the opening period with the jets trailing 1-0. mark scheifele and blake wheeler, who have combined for 12 goals and 15 assists in the postseason, were a combined minus-4 with three shots apiece in game 6, while 29-goal scorer nikolaj ehlers has not scored in the playoffs. connor hellebuyck gave up a goal 62 seconds into game 6 and finished with 25 saves, his lowest total of the series.
about the predators: nashville is alive thanks in large part to its top line, as filip forsberg and viktor arvidsson each scored twice with one assist in game 6, and center ryan johansen added two assists as each member of the trio finished with a plus-4 rating in an elimination game on the road. pekka rinne has been pulled twice against the jets, but the vezina finalist made 34 saves in his strongest game of the series. the predators were outstanding defensively in front of rinne, blocking 23 shots in the game and holding winnipeg to just four shots in killing off the four jets power plays.
overtime
1. thursday marks the first home game 7 (and only third overall) in predators history, and the first game 7 of any type in jets franchise history.

2. nashville c mike fisher did not practice tuesday or wednesday with an undisclosed injury, and if he cannot play, f calle jarnkrok would slide into the middle between f scott hartnell and f ryan hartman.

3. winnipeg has won two of three games in nashville in the series, outscoring the predators 14-8.

prediction: jets 5, predators 4

#5 LUCKY ME LUCKY YOU (ML=5/1)
#3 PARKERELIZABETH (ML=6/1)


LUCKY ME LUCKY YOU - The February 8th event at Turfway Park was at a class level of (74). Dropping to a lower level significantly, so she should be in a good position to win. The latest fig of 70 is the best last race speed fig in the group. Recent speed figs show dominant pattern of improvement. PARKERELIZABETH - Handicapping information show this racer with 3 improving speed ratings. Court should be on a live one in this event.

Vulnerable Contenders: #4 CHOCOLATE BOUQUET (ML=5/2), #1 OLDFASHIONED ANGEL (ML=3/1), #7 LIL MS PERFECTION (ML=7/2),

CHOCOLATE BOUQUET - Doubtful for this thoroughbred to do much running with no recent success in a short distance race. I usually try to beat these types of morning-line choices off the long layoff. OLDFASHIONED ANGEL - Showed very little in the last affair. Really can't expect a reversal of fortune today. Hasn't hit the board in any sprint contests recently. Unlikely to see her doing it this time around either. LIL MS PERFECTION - Tough to take this runner at the odds after the finish (sixth) in the last affair. A pattern of decreasing speed figs 67/58/45 for this horse.

# 1 WALK ON WATER 2/1

LISKA looks decent to best this group of animals and could score at a price in here. Will almost certainly come out solid - I have liked the way this gelding has moved speedily to the lead recently. KNIGHT SOLAIRE - Will almost certainly come out strong - I have liked the way this gelding has moved sharply to the front end recently. Looks very good for the conditions of this contest today, showing solid figs in dirt sprint races recently. WALK ON WATER - Boasts reliable Equibase speed figs on average overall when matched with the rest of this field. Could beat this group given the 88 speed figure garnered in his last outing.

# 4 GOLD MAN 9/5

# 5 BESSIE'S BOY 10/1

GOLD MAN is the best wager in this race. McClellan has this gelding racing well and is a formidable choice based on the very strong Equibase Speed Figs garnered in sprint races lately. This gelding with Hernandez in the irons makes him a key contender. Has formidable early speed and ought to fare admirably versus this group of animals. TIPSY MOOSE - Overall the speed figures of this pony look respectable in this race. McMahon has one of the top winning percentages in this group of animals with entries running at this distance and surface. BESSIE'S BOY - He has a competitive distance/surface win record - 9 for 28.

#7 GENERAL SHERMAN (ML=8/1)
#4 BUSTAMOVE (ML=5/2)
#2 HAUS (ML=8/1)


GENERAL SHERMAN - I think the shorter trip will help this gelding stay the trip. Trainer Chleborad moves this horse down in the class scale to face a lower level today. Look for a good effort given this drop. PP data show this thoroughbred with three improving speed ratings. Birzer should be on a live horse in this event. BUSTAMOVE - Moquett drops him down to this class level. You don't need too much more from the pp lines to think this horse should run well at this level. Ran a lackluster race at Oaklawn Park in the last race. Racing under normal track conditions puts this gelding at the top of my contenders list. HAUS - Martin drops him down to this class level. You don't need too much more handicapping knowledge to figure that this horse is in a good spot at this level. Three consecutive improved Equibase speed figures (24-38-48) make this horse a dominant contender.

Vulnerable Contenders: #3 MAGIC MIRACLE (ML=4/1), #5 STRIKING EKATI (ML=9/2), #8 CONQUEST ASSASSIN (ML=6/1),

MAGIC MIRACLE - Not probable for this horse to make an impact with no recent good showings in a short distance event. STRIKING EKATI - Didn't close any ground whatsoever on Apr 28th. Hard to bet on this time out at the expected odds. CONQUEST ASSASSIN - Just can't wager on any steed right back after he doesn't finish in the money after any long breather. When looking at today's class figure, he will have to garner a much better speed rating than last time out to be competitive in this dirt sprint.



STRAIGHT WAGERS:
Go with #7 GENERAL SHERMAN on top if we're getting at least 7/2 odds

Stanley Cup Playoffs Game 7 Betting Preview and Odds: Jets at Predators

Winnipeg Jets at Nashville Predators (-165, 5.5)

Series tied 3-3.

The two best teams in the NHL this season have battled through six incredible games in the Western Conference semifinals, and now it is time to decide whether the Winnipeg Jets or the Nashville Predators will advance to the conference final. The Predators host the Jets in Thursday's Game 7, the finale of a series in which neither team has won consecutive games, the road team has prevailed four times, and both teams have the same amount of shots (177) and attempts (338).

“It’s a really tight series,” Nashville captain Roman Josi told reporters Wednesday. “Even the games where the score doesn’t really show it, they’re all tight games. They could’ve gone either way.” The key Thursday could be who scores first, as the Predators jumped ahead in Games 4 and 6 and then deployed a defensive-focus mindset in the final two periods of both games to keep the Jets at bay. In between, Winnipeg survived a first-period onslaught in Game 5 before pounding in four second-period goals en route to a 6-2 victory, using the speed and precise passing that Nashville’s defense negated in Games 4 and 6. “Have the confidence that you’re going to go out and perform at your best,” Winnipeg coach Paul Maurice told reporters after Wednesday’s practice. “Enjoy it, the whole part. The nerves before the game, the tension of the game, the excitement of the game.”

BETTING STATS:

http://i67.tinypic.com/10r4ccy.jpg

LINE HISTORY: The Predators opened as -165 moneyline favorites for Game 7 and as of Wednesday night that number has not moved. 66 percent of early moneyline wagers are on the favored Preds. The total hit betting boards at 5.5 and has yet to move.

ABOUT THE JETS (59-23-9-2, 45-46 O/U): Winnipeg had chances in Game 6 but saw its power play, one of the NHL’s best this season, come up empty four times with the man advantage in the 4-0 defeat – three times in the opening period with the Jets trailing the game 1-0. Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler, who have combined for 12 goals and 15 assists in the postseason, were a combined minus-4 with three shots apiece in Game 6, while 29-goal scorer Nikolaj Ehlers has not scored in the playoffs. Connor Hellebuyck gave up a goal 62 seconds into Game 6 and finished with 25 saves, his lowest total of the series.

ABOUT THE PREDATORS (60-23-4-7, 47-46 O/U): Nashville is alive thanks in large part to its top line, as Filip Forsberg and Viktor Arvidsson each scored twice with one assist in Game 6, and center Ryan Johansen added two assists – each member of the line finishing plus-4 in an elimination game on the road. Pekka Rinne has been pulled twice against the Jets, but the Vezina finalist made 34 saves in his strongest game of the series. The Predators were outstanding defensively in front of Rinne, blocking 23 shots in the game and holding Winnipeg to just four shots in killing off the four Jets power plays.

San Francisco Giants vs. Philadelphia Phillies Preview and Predictions 05-10-2018

9th May 2018 by Gracenote
the philadelphia phillies have been patient with carlos santana to begin paying dividends after signing the power-hitting switch hitter to a three-year, $60 million contract in the offseason. santana has responded to a sluggish start by carrying a six-game hitting streak into thursday afternoon as the phillies (21-15) vie for a four-game sweep of the visiting san francisco giants (19-18).

santana has gone deep in each of the first two contests of the series before driving in a career high-tying five runs in wednesday's 11-3 romp, improving to 9-for-26 with three homers, 12 rbis and five runs scored during his hitting streak. maikel franco had an rbi single in the first inning to push his hitting streak to seven games (12-for-29) before belting the eighth homer of the series for philadelphia, which improved to 14-5 at citizens bank park. san francisco's brandon belt scored on evan longoria's double on wednesday, marking the sixth time that he has crossed the plate during his last seven games. the giants' offense has taken a snooze as the club has answered its 33 runs in its previous four games by getting outscored 26-5 in this series.
tv: 1:05 p.m. et, facebook watch
pitching matchup: giants lh ty blach (3-3, 3.60 era) vs. phillies rh vince velasquez (2-4, 5.14)

blach collected his second straight win after allowing two runs (one earned) over a season-high 7 2/3 innings in an 11-2 romp over atlanta. "it felt good to get out there and feel like i could get deep into the game," the 27-year-old told the san jose mercury news. "it's something i take pride in so definitely a big momentum booster there." blach turned in decidedly differing performances against philadelphia last season, as he scattered seven hits in a 10-0 shutout on june 2 before getting shredded for six runs on eight hits in a 12-9 setback on aug. 19.
velasquez snapped a three-start losing streak and posted his first win since april 7 after giving up only a solo homer over five innings in saturday's 3-1 triumph at washington. the homer was the sixth allowed in four outings for the 25-year-old, who also struggled with his control by issuing a season-high four walks. velasquez pitched well in his lone encounter versus san francisco, yielding two runs on three hits over five innings in a no-decision on aug. 4, 2016.
walk-offs

1. philadelphia cf odubel herrera has reached base in 38 consecutive games, tied with jimmy rollins for second place in franchise history.

2. san francisco rf andrew mccutchen is 12-for-29 during his nine-game hitting streak.

3. longoria has recorded five multi-hit performances since april 27.

Kansas City Royals vs. Baltimore Orioles Preview and Predictions 05-10-2018

9th May 2018 by Gracenote
chris davis could be finding his home run swing as the last-place baltimore orioles go after their third series victory of the season when the kansas city royals pay a visit thursday night for the finale of a three-game set. davis, who belted 223 homers over the previous six seasons, had struggled in 2018 before launching home runs the last two days - including a three-run blast in the 5-3 victory wednesday.

davis, batting .176, hit his fourth homer of the season in the fourth inning wednesday and mark trumbo plated a pair of runs with a single in the eighth to snap a 3-3 tie as the orioles went on to end a seven-game losing streak. chris tillman goes after his second victory when he takes the mound for baltimore on thursday against fellow right-hander ian kennedy, who has been snakebit much of the season. the royals lost for the fourth time in 11 games wednesday after going 1-for-8 with runners in scoring position - the lone hit being lucas duda's two-run blast in the fourth inning. kansas city's mike moustakas went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts after knocking in eight runs over the previous two games while teammate jorge soler is 6-for-11 across the last three contests and boasts nine rbis in his past eight outings.

pitching matchup: royals rh ian kennedy (1-3, 2.92 era) vs. orioles rh chris tillman (1-5, 9.24)

kennedy gave up six hits and one walk with seven strikeouts over six scoreless innings last time out without getting a decision in a 4-2 kansas city victory. the 33-year-old usc product has allowed two or fewer runs in five of his seven starts and owns 35 strikeouts across 37 innings. manny machado is 2-for-3 with a double versus kennedy, who is 0-2 with a 6.89 era in four career games against baltimore and is 10 strikeouts shy of 1,500 overall.
tillman followed up his best outing of the season by getting pounded for seven runs on seven hits in one-plus inning to take the loss against the los angeles angels last thursday. the 30-year-old california native had given up one hit and two walks over seven scoreless innings to beat detroit on april 27 for his only win. moustakas and salvador perez are each 6-for-16 with a home run against tillman, who is 3-3 with a 5.37 era in nine games versus the royals.
walk-offs

1. kansas city lf alex gordon is 12-for-28 with three homers over his last seven contests.

2. baltimore placed rhp darren o'day (elbow) on the 10-day disabled list wednesday and recalled lhp tanner scott.

3. royals of abraham almonte left wednesday's game due to illness and his status for thursday is uncertain.

Boston Red Sox vs. New York Yankees Preview and Predictions 05-10-2018

10th May 2018 by Gracenote
the boston red sox used a 17-1 stretch to seize early control of the american league east, but the new york yankees have utilized an identical surge to take over the top spot. the first-place yankees look to make it 18 of 19 and complete a three-game sweep of the red sox when the american league east rivals meet thursday in the bronx.

brett gardner and aaron judge combined for six hits, six runs and five rbis, including four on consecutive hits - gardner's two-run triple and judge's two-run homer - against boston closer craig kimbrel in an eighth-inning rally that lifted new york to a 9-6 victory wednesday night. "they're playing good baseball," kimbrel told reporters of the yankees, who have won 11 straight at home. "it seems like they're doing all the small things at the right time." new york was 7 1/2 games behind the red sox after the action on april 20, but has seized a one-game edge on boston, which is 8-9 since its 17-1 run. cc sabathia, who was 4-0 with a 1.04 era in four starts against the red sox last year, starts the finale for the yankees opposite fellow lefty eduardo rodriguez.

pitching matchup: red sox lh eduardo rodriguez (3-0, 5.29 era) vs. yankees lh cc sabathia (2-0, 1.39)

rodriguez posted three straight quality starts in the middle of april but has given up five runs in each of his last two outings. he struck out 10 in six frames but served up three home runs in his last start saturday at texas. the red sox are 6-0 in starts made by the venezuela native, who is 4-2 with a 2.96 era in nine starts against the yankees.
sabathia is 2-0 with a 0.39 era in four starts since coming off the disabled list april 19, including six scoreless innings and a season-high seven strikeouts against cleveland on friday. he has lasted four straight starts without allowing a home run and has issued only three walks over his last five outings. the 37-year-old, who is 17-13 with a 4.12 era lifetime versus the red sox, has controlled matters against hanley ramirez (2-for-22), xander bogaerts (4-for-28) and andrew benintendi (2-for-11).
walk-offs

1. red sox lhp david price, who was originally scheduled to start wednesday, was diagnosed with a mild case of carpal tunnel syndrome and is expected to throw a bullpen session thursday.

2. judge is 10-for-19 with two homers and five rbis against boston this year.

3. red sox 1b mitch moreland went deep wednesday and is 11-for-21 with four homers and eight rbis during a five-game hitting streak.

Seattle Mariners vs. Toronto Blue Jays Preview and Predictions 05-10-2018

9th May 2018 by Gracenote
the toronto blue jays responded to being no-hit in the opener against the seattle mariners by sleepwalking through much of the following game before erupting for a four-run eighth inning. the blue jays (20-17) bid to continue that momentum against the visiting mariners (20-15) on thursday when they play the rubber match of the series at rogers centre.

teoscar hernandez answered a brutal 2-for-19 stretch in his previous five games by belting a solo homer to highlight his three-hit performance in wednesday's 5-2 victory. kevin pillar recorded his fifth multi-hit effort this month for toronto, which posted just its second win in six outings overall and second in its last seven at home while handing seattle its fifth loss in its last 14 contests. jean segura had an rbi double en route to his third three-hit performance in 10 outings for the mariners. the 28-year-old dominican will try to continue that momentum versus thursday starter j.a. happ, against whom he is just 1-for-7 in his career.
tv: 7:07 p.m. et, root northwest (seattle), sportsnet one (toronto)
pitching matchup: mariners rh mike leake (3-3, 6.28 era) vs. blue jays lh j.a. happ (4-2, 3.67)

leake's fast beginning to the season has slowed to a crawl after he answered wins in his first two outings with a 1-3 mark with an 8.70 era in his last four starts. the 30-year-old didn't help himself in his last outing with a season high-tying four walks across 5 1/3 innings of a 5-0 setback versus the los angeles angels on friday. russell martin is 10-for-32 in his career versus leake, who carries a lifetime mark of 1-1 with a 2.40 era against toronto
happ tasted defeat for the first time since opening day after permitting a season-high four walks to drive up his pitch count in a 6-2 setback at tampa bay. the 35-year-old was taken deep for the seventh time in seven outings this season against the rays before exiting after 5 2/3 innings. nelson cruz is 10-for-22 in his career versus happ, but the left-hander has kept andrew romine (1-for-8) and mike zunino (1-for-7) under wraps.
walk-offs

1. toronto acquired 3b giovanny urshela from cleveland in exchange for cash considerations or a player to be named later.

2. seattle 2b robinson cano is 6-for-33 in his last eight games.

3. toronto's lourdes gurriel is 0-for-7 with two strikeouts since fellow ss aledmys diaz went on the 10-day disabled list with a sprained left ankle.

9th May 2018 by Gracenote
the atlanta braves are on quite a run away from home as they open a four-game series thursday against the host miami marlins looking to extend their road winning streak to eight games. national league east-leading atlanta improved to 13-7 on the road wednesday by capping a two-game interleague sweep of tampa bay with a 5-2 victory and has outscored its opponents 41-6 during the seven-game winning streak while allowing fewer than two runs five times in that span.

nick markakis, who began wednesday leading the national league in hits (45) and tied for second in batting average (.333), went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer in the victory. the marlins return home following a 2-4 road trip that ended with a thud, as they were outscored 31-9 while being swept in a three-game set against the chicago cubs. miami pitchers were hammered for 40 hits in the series, including seven home runs. miguel rojas finished 3-for-5 with a two-run blast in wednesday's 13-4 loss, while brian anderson is hitting .303 since april 20 after going 1-for-4.

smith struggled in the early going, posting a 6.89 era through his first four starts, but has been outstanding in three turns since. the 26-year-old is 2-1 with a 0.96 era and a .113 opponents' batting average in his last three outings, recording 26 strikeouts with just two walks and seven hits allowed in 18 2/3 innings. smith struck out seven and walked one while allowing three hits in 5 1/3 scoreless innings of a win at cincinnati on saturday, five days after striking out nine in seven scoreless frames of a victory over colorado.

jhoulys chacÃ*n has bounced around since spending his first six major league seasons with the colorado rockies, and is now with his fifth different team since the start of 2015. chacin will be in a familiar spot, however, when he takes the mound for the milwaukee brewers on thursday night in the opener of a 10-game road trip against the rockies.

coors field is not known as a pitcher's haven but chacin managed to go 23-23 there while making 69 appearances (62 starts) for colorado. he will try to slow a team that had ripped off six consecutive wins before dropping an 8-0 decision in the second of a two-game interleague series against the los angeles angels. the rockies had allowed two runs or fewer five times during the six-game run and also saw their franchise-record string of quality starts snapped at nine in wednesday's loss. milwaukee, which is in a four-way dogfight for first place in the national league central, capped a 2-3 homestand with a 6-2 loss to cleveland on wednesday.

Washington Nationals vs. Arizona Diamondbacks Preview and Predictions 05-10-2018

10th May 2018 by Gracenote
the slumping bryce harper received a night off to refresh but will be back in the starting lineup when the washington nationals visit the arizona diamondbacks on thursday for the opener of their four-game series. harper sat out wednesday's 2-1 setback against san diego after matching his career-worst stretch of 19 straight hitless at-bats.

harper, who is batting just .230, played in each of washington's first 37 games before manager dave martinez broached the idea of a mental day off, which meant no batting practice as well. "i'm a big believer in rest," martinez told reporters. "i've been wanting to give him a day off. he's just so good. it's hard." despite wednesday's loss, the nationals have won nine of their last 11 games as they enter the series versus the diamondbacks, who had a three-game winning streak halted with wednesday's 6-3 road loss to the los angeles dodgers. arizona star paul goldschmidt is mired in a 21-game homerless drought and his bloop rbi-single on wednesday leaves him 2-for-29 with one rbi in may.

pitching matchup: nationals rh tanner roark (2-3, 3.65 era) vs. diamondbacks rh zack greinke (3-2, 4.10)

greinke settled for a no-decision against houston in his last turn despite giving up one run and five hits over 5 2/3 innings. the 34-year-old walked a season-worst two batters but has issued just six free passes while striking out 47 in 41 2/3 frames. greinke has thrived against washington, posting a 5-1 record and 1.49 era in seven career starts, and has kept harper in the ballpark in a small sample size (1-for-4, two strikeouts, two walks).
walk-offs

1. the diamondbacks took two of three from the host nationals from april 27-29.

2. washington of/1b matt adams is 11-for-29 with seven homers and 14 rbis this month.

arm injuries limited garrett richards to a combined 12 starts and one win over the past two seasons, but he is finally healthy and will take the mound for the los angeles angels on thursday in the opener of a four-game set against the visiting minnesota twins. it's the beginning of an 11-game homestand for los angeles, which is only 8-10 at angel stadium.

richards will go for his fifth win for the angels, who improved to 14-4 on the road and 6-2 in may with an 8-0 victory at colorado on wednesday to salvage a split of the two-game interleague series. justin upton homered for the second straight day and has four blasts and 12 rbis in eight games this month for los angeles. the twins had a day off wednesday but they entered the final leg of their 10-game road trip on a five-game winning streak, scoring 32 runs in that span. "we're playing better in all phases right now," minnesota manager paul molitor said. "we're executing, especially over the last handful of days."

pitching matchup: twins rh josé berrÃ*os (3-3, 3.98 era) vs. angels rh garrett richards (4-1, 3.93)

richards rebounded from his worst performance with perhaps his best, giving up four hits and striking out eight over 6 2/3 scoreless innings to earn the win at seattle. he was hammered by the yankees for nine runs in 1 2/3 innings in his previous turn -- the lone dud during a six-start stretch in which he has allowed two runs or fewer five times. richards is 2-1 with a 2.61 era in six appearances against minnesota.

St. Louis Cardinals vs. San Diego Padres Preview and Predictions 05-10-2018

10th May 2018 by Gracenote
miles mikolas will pitch at san diego's petco park on thursday for the first time since he was a member of the padres in 2012 and 2013. the right-hander is thriving in his return to the major leagues as he takes the mound for the st. louis cardinals in the opener of their four-game series against san diego.

mikolas made 27 relief appearances for the padres before spending part of 2014 with texas and then pitching in japan the past three seasons. the 29-year-old received a two-year, $15.5 million contract from the cardinals over the winter, and the investment has looked good in the early going as mikolas is sporting a stellar 4-0 record through six starts. st. louis scored just one run in back-to-back losses to minnesota after winning its previous five games by a total of six runs. san diego posted a 2-1 victory over washington on wednesday to salvage the finale of the three-game series and is looking for eric hosmer to break out of a 2-for-20 funk, although both hits were homers.
tv: 10:10 p.m. et, fs midwest (st. louis), fs san diego
pitching matchup: cardinals rh miles mikolas (4-0, 2.70 era) vs. padres rh jordan lyles (0-0, 3.66)

mikolas defeated the chicago cubs in his last turn as he gave up seven hits over seven scoreless innings. a seventh-round pick of the padres in the 2009 draft, mikolas hasn't walked a batter in any of his last three turns and has issued just two against 31 strikeouts in 40 frames. "if i throw ball four, there's a 100 percent chance that guy's going to be on first base," mikolas recently told reporters. "if you make him put it in play, i'll take my chances with those numbers."
lyles will make his first start of the season after making 13 relief appearances. the 27-year-old is replacing bryan mitchell in the rotation after holding opposing batters to a .194 average in 19 2/3 innings out of the bullpen. lyles is 0-1 with a 4.86 era in six career appearances (two starts) against st. louis and has struggled with dexter fowler (3-for-6, homer, four walks).
walk-offs

1. cardinals 3b jedd gyorko is a scorching 18-for-36 with seven homers and 16 rbis in 10 games against the padres, the team for which he played from 2013-15.

2. st. louis cf tommy pham (groin) is expected back in the lineup after missing the two-game series with minnesota.

3. san diego 3b christian villanueva is 0-for-25 over his last seven contests after striking out twice in four hitless at-bats on wednesday.

Cincinnati Reds vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Preview and Predictions 05-10-2018

10th May 2018 by Gracenote
yasiel puig made his presence felt in his return to the lineup and looks for a repeat performance when the los angeles dodgers host the cincinnati reds on thursday for the opener of their four-game series. puig, who hadn't played since april 28 due to hip and ankle injuries, was activated from the disabled list and went 3-for-4 while scoring twice in wednesday's 6-3 win over arizona.

pinch-hitter chase utley delivered a two-run double in the eighth inning to seal the victory for the dodgers, who had lost three in a row. cincinnati seeks its first three-game winning streak of the season as it begins a seven-game road trip. the reds ended a three-game slide with tuesday's 7-2 victory over the new york mets and came away with a 2-1 triumph the following day when adam duvall led off the bottom of the 10th inning with his sixth homer of the year. eugenio suarez recorded one of cincinnati's five hits on wednesday to finish 6-for-12 with a home run and five rbis in the three-game series versus new york.
tv: 10:10 p.m. et, fs ohio (cincinnati), sportsnet la (los angeles)
pitching matchup: reds rh tyler mahle (2-4, 4.35 era) vs. dodgers rh walker buehler (2-0, 1.13)

mahle has allowed three runs or fewer in five of his seven starts this season but has lost two of them - including saturday's outing against miami in which he gave up three while serving up two homers among the five hits he yielded in six innings. the 23-year-old californian did not issue a walk, however, and has given out only 11 free passes while striking out 42 over 39 1/3 frames in 2018. mahle will be facing los angeles for the first time in his brief career.
buehler's third major-league start on friday was an historic one, as he recorded eight strikeouts over six innings against san diego in mexico in the first combined no-hitter in dodgers history. the 23-year-old native of kentucky has given up two runs and 10 hits over 16 frames in his three turns this season but has yet to work more than six innings. buehler, who has yet to face cincinnati, scattered four hits over five scoreless frames of a no-decision versus miami on april 23 in his first career start at dodger stadium.

1. dodgers c yasmani grandal went 3-for-7 in the two-game series against arizona after going hitless in 14 at-bats over his previous six contests.

Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking: Walker Buehler, Los Angeles Dodgers (2-0, 1.12 ERA, $300)

Buehler was the starter for the Dodgers when he and the bullpen combined to no-hit the Padres. Buehler himself threw six scoreless innings of no-hit ball with eight strikeouts and three walks.

The 23-year-old right-hander has been fantastic in his first three career starts, pitching to a 1.12 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP. He and the Dodgers are currently -180 home favorites tonight against the Reds.

Slumping: Jose Berrios, Minnesota Twins (3-3, 3.98 ERA, $-37)

This season has mostly been a struggle for the Twins you right-hander. His last three start have been particularly tough. Berrios has managed to pitch just 13 innings with an ERA of 9.00 and a WHIP of almost 2.00 in his last three appearance, where he has given up more walks and home runs combined (11) than he has strikeouts (9).

Berrios will look to get back on track when he and the Twins visit the Angels tonight. Minnesosta is currently a +128 road dog.

Thursday's Top Trends

* Under is 8-0 in Sabathias last 8 home starts vs. Red Sox. O/U: 9.

Weather Watch

The only afternoon game on today's schedule is in Philadelphia where the Giants will take on the Phillies at 1:05 PM ET. There is a slight chance of thunderstorms in the Philly area and there will be a stiff 12-15 mile per hour breeze blowing straight out to center field. The Phillies are -145 favorites and the total is set at 9.5.

For the evening slate of games, there is about a 40 percent chance of rain with some thunderstorms in the area for the final game of the Red Sox/Yankees series in The Bronx. The total tonight is 9.5 and the Yanks are -135 favorites.

Wind should not be a factor in any of the evening games on today's schedule.

Ump of the Day

Kerwin Danley: Danley will be calling balls and strikes this evening in Baltimore for the blockbuster battle between the Royals and Orioles. Although his Under numbers are just mediocre this season at 4-3, he is traditionally near the top of the Under standings for umpires as the Under is 34-16 (68 percent) over his last 50 games behind the dish. Going back even further, since the beginning of the 2012 season the Under is 105-59 in games called by Danley. The total for tonight's game between the Royals and O's is set at 10.5.

MLB | Mariners vs Blue Jays
Play on: Mariners +1½ -140 at 5Dimes

Free pick on Mariners +1.5
I'm recommending playing the Mariners on the +1.5 run line in Thursday's matchup with the Blue Jays in Toronto. I just think the value here is too good to pass up on Seattle to either keep this within a run or win the game outright.
Toronto came back late to steal yesterday's game 5-2. The Blue Jays went into the 8th down 2-1 before putting up 4 runs. After getting no-hit on Tuesday, there's still major concerns with this Toronto offense and I feel they are getting way too much respect here.
Seattle will send out Mike Leake, who has had his struggles after a strong start to the season. However, Leake was better in his last outing and is 34-12 against the run line in his career in road games when playing against a team with a winning record. Leake is also 16-2 on the run line in road games in the month of May and 30-11 in his last 41 starts against the run line in road games when working on 5 or 6 days of rest. Take Seattle +1.5!

MLB | Reds vs Dodgers
Play on: Dodgers -1½ +120 at 5Dimes

Jack’s Free Pick Thursday: Los Angeles Dodgers -1.5 (+120)
The Los Angeles Dodgers should have no problem beating the lowly Cincinnati Reds by multiple runs tonight. The Reds are just 9-27 on the season and one of the worst teams in baseball.
The Dodgers have the clear advantage on the mound tonight behind top prospect Walker Buehler. The rookie has dominated thus far, going 2-0 with a 1.12 ERA and 1.062 WHIP in three starts with 19 K’s in 16 innings.
Tyler Mahle goes for the Reds. He is 2-4 with a 4.35 ERA and 1.246 WHIP in seven starts this season, including 1-2 with a 4.50 ERA and 1.687 WHIP in three road starts.
The Reds are 2-9 in their last 11 games following a win. Cincinnati is 1-8 in its last nine games after allowing 2 runs or fewer in its previous game. The Dodgers are 75-28 in their last 103 games following a win. Los Angeles is 26-8 in its last 34 games vs. NL Central foes. The Dodgers are 56-25 in the last 81 meetings, including 29-9 in the last 38 meetings in Los Angeles. Bet the Dodgers on the Run Line Thursday.

Play on: Brewers +145 at MyBookie

Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach MLB Game #905 Thursday Free Pick Milwaukee Brewers Money Line (+) @ Colorado Rockies @ 8:40 ET - With the Rockies off of an embarrassing home shutout loss yesterday, Colorado is a popular choice today and that has driven this money line even higher when it was already over-priced in the first place. While the markets expect a bounce back from the Rockies here, the fact is that they are not only 0-2 when off of a shutout loss this season, they are actually 0-4 this season when off of a game where they scored 1 run or less! The Brewers bullpen (2.61 ERA) ranks 2nd out of all 30 MLB teams while Colorado's bullpen (5.02 ERA) ranks 2nd to DEAD LAST in the National League! As for the starting pitchers in this one, Jhoulys Chacin seeks revenge against his former club and he has won his last two starts versus the Rockies and has a 3.31 ERA in his 3 starts versus Colorado since coming over to Milwaukee. He'll be opposed by German Marquez and the Rockies right-hander gave up 3 homers the last time he faced the Brewers. Also, Marquez has an ugly 10.64 ERA in his two home starts this season! Colorado has only had 2 good games at the plate in their last 11 games! In the other 9 games the Rockies have averaged just 1.8 runs per game! The Brewers were 5-2 their last 7 before yesterday's loss versus Cleveland and they have won 4 of their last 6 games at Coors Field. Solid road dog value here and I'll take it! Free Pick MILWAUKEE

The New York Yankees (26-10) are the hottest team in baseball. They have won 17 of their last 18 games overall and now will be looking to sweep the rival Red Sox tonight. C.C. Sabathia should get the job done. The veteran left-hander is 2-0 with a 1.39 ERA and 0.87 WHIP in six starts this season. He is 5-0 with a 1.08 ERA in his last five starts against the Red Sox. He has allowed just 4 earned runs in 33 1/3 innings in those five starts. Give me the Yankees.

Play on: Predators -150 at 5Dimes

Thursday NHL Free play. My selection is on Nashville over Winnipeg at 8:10 pm et on Thursday.
Home ice is what teams play for all season long and in this particular case, I do think that it means something, even if the road teams have had a lot more success in this series. In fact, the home team has only won two of the first six games in this series. That leads many to believe that the value lies with the underdog Jets in this matchup, but I don't think that's the case.
I considered the Predators to be one of the two most complete teams at the start of the NHL Playoffs with the Lightning being the other. Tampa Bay has already punched its ticket to the Eastern Conference Final while the Preds will be looking to do the same in the West on Thursday.
It's going to be tough for the Jets to rebound from Monday's blown opportunity in front a rabid crowd on home ice. While the Jets players will all say the right things in the media, I do think they would have much preferred getting right back out there rather than the two-day layoff between games to think about what 'could have been'.
There's not a lot separating these two teams even though we've seen a number of lopsided results in this particular series. In a tight, hard-fought affair on Thursday night in Nashville, I look for Nashville's top line to prove to be the difference. Take Nashville (8*).

10* FREE MLB PICK (Brewers +146)
I'll take my chances here with Milwaukee at this price. These are two pretty evenly matched teams. In fact, both teams come into this game with an identical 21-16 record. I just don't see the kind of edge on the mound that would warrant Colorado being this big of a favorite. The Rockies are sending out German Marquez, who has a 10.64 ERA and 2.091 WHIP in 3 home starts. Milwaukee counters with Jhoulys Chacin. While Chacin's numbers aren't great, he is coming off his best start last time out and the Brewers are 6-2 this season when he starts, including a 4-1 record on the road. Give me Milwaukee +146!

This is a 1* Free Play on the Toronto Blue Jays.
We think that the Jays can build off yesterday’s 5-2 victory. One day after getting blanked by James Paxton, Toronto bounced back with a decent effort on Wednesday. All signs point to another victory here in our opinion as we think this line could/should easily be a lot larger considering the talent discrepancy on the mound. The M’s hand the ball to Mike Leake (3-3, 6.28 ERA) who gave up three runs off seven hits over 5.1 innings while also walking four in a loss to the Angels on Friday. Leake has put up a couple of decent efforts, but overall he’s been poor, as note that his 1.60 WHIP over 38.2 innings certainly leaves something to be desired. The home side counters with JA Happ (4-2, 3.67) who gave up three runs off four hits while striking out three over six innings in a loss to the Rays on Friday. Happ has the solid 3.67 ERA, but his 1.08 WHIP and 53:11 K:BB over 41.2 innings of work have to be considered “elite.” We’re basing this pick on the starting pitchers and as mentioned off the top, all signs point to a lop-sided blowout in that department. Consider the JAYS on Thursday night.

#MLB FREE PICK FROM MIKE LUNDIN
The Toronto Blue Jays have won six of the last seven meetings here at Rogers Centre following a 5-2 triumph on Wednesday.
They have a significant advantage on the mound in tonight's contest with J.A. Happ (4-2, 3.67 ERA) opposing Mike Leake (3-3, 6.28 ERA). Leake has really struggled lately and allowed seven hits and three runs over 5 1/3 innings against the Angels his last time out. He's 1-3 with an 8.70 ERA in his last four starts.
Happ on the other hand has been solid all season, entering this game with a 53/11 K/BB ratio and a 1.08 WHIP. Happ is 4-1 with a 3.71 ERA in six career starts against the Mariners and the Blue Jays have won each of the last four.
Blue Jays are 18-6 in Happ's last 24 home starts vs. a team with a winning record and I think the price is right to back Toronto here in the rubber match of this three-game series.
Free pick on Toronto Blue Jays.
