CHI. CUBS +112


CHI. CUBS @ ST. LOUIS | 8/01 | 7:15 PM EDT
YESTERDAY 9:53 PM
My projections see the Cubs toppling the rival Cardinals nearly 60 percent of the time in their Thursday clash, giving us major value on the slight road underdog. My simulations have Chicago winning this matchup 59 percent of the time. My data gives Chicago the edge behind veteran left Jon Lester. The Cubs are 7-2 when he starts Game of a series and 6-2 in his past eight outings against St. Louis.

MINNESOTA @ MIAMI | 8/01 | 12:10 PM EDT
YESTERDAY 9:47 PM
My projections have the Marlins beating the Twins more than half the time in their Thursday meeting, providing a massive overlay on the sizable home underdog. My simulations have Miami winning 52 percent of the time. Miami starter Jordan Yamamoto has bee solid of late, and he is 2-1 with a 2.68 ERA in four daytime starts. The Twins are on an 8-15 spurt in interleague contests.

Andrew Kittridge will be opening for Jalen Beeks who has a 3.61 ERA this season. In his one outing against the Red Sox this season, he gave up eight earned runs in 3.2 IP. Rick Porcello is 9-7 with a 5.55 ERA this season and 6-4 with a 5.06 ERA at home. In his two starts against the Rays, he has pitched 5.2 innings giving up two earned runs and six innings giving up four earned runs. The Red Sox have the ninth highest OPS in the league against lefties and they are 13-8 when Porcello starts.

2* Denver +1

I don't understand how Atl can be favored here. ATl's coach Quinn does not care about the preseason, and I think this is just a bad opener.

Denver should be favored......

Update, Den now IS favored -130. At that price I would pass the game (lean Denver).

Rodriguez v. Arrieta
The Giants locked themselves IN last night...and the Phillies just HAVE to be better than this! Early start get away day for both squads and the pitching matchup features Jake Arrieta with the better metrics facing DRod...who was swell in his last outing...after his 3 previous stints as a starter had an xFIP over 7!
Early value on this at 10 where I think it may move up!

PLAY: UNDER 8.5 (-100)

BET SIZE: 4%

List Cole & Salazar

4% play at 8.5 or higher
3% play at 8
No play below 8

DB's THOUGHTS:

Gerrit Cole's numbers are fantastic no matter how you slice them. These Indians hitters own a weak .174 average against him. Cleveland is only averaging 3.9 runs in home night games against righty starters, with the Under going 14-6-1 in those contests.

Danny Salazar hasn't pitched a big league game since 2017. He owns a career 3.82 ERA, 3.42 xFIP, 3.27 K/BB, 27.8% K%, 1.26 WHIP, etc. -- All good numbers. And those numbers are even better at Progressive Field. Houston's hitters only own a .211 average against him, and they haven't faced him in two years.

Both bullpens are among the best in the league.

We also get Vic Carapazza behind the plate. Carapazza has shown a strong Under bias overall. The Under is 6-3 with Carapazza calling balls & strikes in Cleveland, including 4-0 the last four.

PLAY UNDER.

The Padres have lost 7 of 9 vs winning teams 41 of 58 vs a lefty and 7 of 8 in game 1 of a series. Lucchese has dropped 5 of his last 6 and the last 4 with 5 days rest.

Game: (911) Tampa Bay Rays at (912) Boston Red Sox
Date/Time: Aug 1 2019 7:10 PM EDT
Betting Line Provider: Westgate
Play Rating: 4%
Play: Total Over 10.5 (-105)

View Analysis

The Tampa Bay Rays and Boston Red Sox meet Thursday night at Fenway Park for the final game of their three game series. Talk about a missed opportunity. After winning three of four over the Yankees, the Red Sox have now lost the series against the Rays and fail to gain any ground in the Wild Card chase. Now their looking at getting swept by the red hot hitting Rays who have won five of their last six.

The Rays have scored 24 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in seven of their last nine games. They have also won seven of their last 10 games when scoring four or more runs. Rookie Brendan McKay gets the ball for them tonight and he's 1-1 with a 3.72 ERA and 18 strikeouts this season. This will be McKay’s first career game against the Red Sox at Fenway Park.

The Rays certainly need some pitching help because of the injuries to their frontline starters and are turning to the rookie to give them some innings. McKay made four starts before getting sent down the last time and he posted a 3.72 ERA with a 2.86 FIP and a 3.86 xFIP in those starts with 18 strikeouts against one walk. He was pretty bad in his last start against the White Sox, but pitched well at home against Texas and the Yankees.

However, the Rays have bullpen issues. Diego Castillo, Colin Poche, and Chaz Roe have all worked three of the last four days. Oliver Drake had yesterday off after pitching three of the previous four days. The Rays really need McKay to chew up some innings in this one. That seems a little iffy at Fenway against this lineup. Especially since it's his first time.

The Red Sox are sending Andrew Cashner to the mound in order to stop the bleeding tonight. This will be Cashner's fourth start for the Sox since coming over from the Orioles. He has struggled since coming over as well with an ERA of 6.11, 1.64 WHIP, and .397 OBA. He allowed 9 earned runs against the Blue Jays and Orioles. In his most recent outing against the Yankees, he was lucky to get out of it with only 3 earned runs. Cashner was touched up for 10 hits and 3 runs in 6.2 innings. He also walked a batter, so it could have been much worse for him.

The bottom line in this game will be won with offense and not pitching.

The over hit in the first two games and the over is 17-5 in Boston’s last 22 home games. The over is also 5-2-1 in the Rays’ last 8 games as an underdog. Tampa’s bullpen has been crushed so far this week and is sporting a 6.05 ERA. I wouldn't count on Cashner keeping this hot hitting Rays hitters in check either.

I'll be betting the OVER in this game and will sprinkle a little something on the Rays F5 and FG ML as well.

Take the OVER in this game and get ready for both these teams to score some runs.

New - Vernon Croys' Picks For WNBA7-Unit Play. Take #623 Las Vegas +1.5 over Los Angeles (Thursday, August 1 at 10:00 PM ET)


Take Las Vegas ATS as my 7-Unit WNBA Smash for Thursday night. This pick falls into one my top WNBA systems and I have Las Vegas winning this game by 6+ points here tonight. This is a revenge game for Las Vegas who lost against Los Angeles earlier this season and Las Vegas is actually played better without A'ja Wilson because of players like Hamby and Young stepping up big time. Las Vegas has won 3 straight game since losing A'ja Wilson and now they have a revenge spot against Los Angeles. Los Angeles is with a Williams and she played 35 minutes 44 seconds in that win over Las Vegas back on June 27 with 18 points and 5 rebounds so they will miss her big time tonight. Las Vegas also has the advantage in this game because Los Angeles is playing with too much rest. Los Angeles is just 5-16-1 ATS in their last 22 games after a win and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games against the Western Conference opponent. Las Vegas has stepped up big time defensively allowing just 68 points per game over their last 5 games with opponents shooting just 35.2% against them and I look for them to play great defensively tonight. I have been saying all season that Las Vegas is the best team in the WNBA and this will be a big statement game for them here tonight. Play Las Vegas ATS and make sure you get my 7-Unit CFL play that's released tonight at 6 PM as I expect this line to move before Saturday.

VIP PICKS (NFLx - GAME OF THE YEAR)
Pick: (127) Denver -2
Prediction: Denver 27 Atlanta 13
In preseason we look for 4 things; Coaching, QB rotation, depth charts and motivation. Tonight we have all 4 ingredients with the Denver Broncos but we are going to focus on motivation as the key for this play. Denver has new sheriff in town, head coach Vic Fangio, a man that is known for his tenacious defenses, defenses that have ranked in the top 5 for yards allowed in 8 of 12 of his seasons and top 5 for points allowed in 7 of his 12 seasons. While defense is at the forefront Coach Fangio will also be looking to showcase some great young talent and offseason additions, especially on the offensive side where he will look to push the pace and score often. There is a great deal of enthusiasm around his arrival and he will be looking to impress in his first game as head coach, a game he and his players are motivated to win. And we can't think of any better way to show his defensive commitment than having one of the best defensive players in recent history on the their sideline tonight as former Bronco Champ Bailey is being inducted into the HOF. Additionally, we have the added motivation of playing for owner Pat Bowlen who died 6 weeks ago. Bowlen was a players and coaches guy... everyone loved him. With tonight kicking off the 100th season we also can't think of any other way the league would want to celebrate than by having the team who proudly displays the "dark horse" outside their stadium to win. It also helps knowing we have a huge 29-0 trend backing certain preseason teams, team with fewer previous season wins, if they have a new head coach.

MLB - Orioles/Blue Jays Over 10

The Orioles swung the bats well on their west coast roadie and now look to stay hot at home as they welcome in the Blue Jays. They'll need to score runs considering they're expected to throw Asher Wojciechowski back out there despite his struggles. Toronto will go with Tyler Thornton, who has a 7.06 ERA over his last seven outings. Count on seeing runs at Camden Yards and ride the high side.

MLB - Cardinals -115

The Cubs blanked the Cardinals last night, 2-0 as the two NL Central rivals are tied for the top spot in the division heading into tonight's action. Chicago hasn't fared well off a road win recently by going 1-10 in this situation as Jon Lester takes the mound tonight. Lester pitched well in his last start at Milwaukee, but the Cubs lost to the Brewers in extra innings. Jack Flaherty has looked good of late by allowing two runs or less in four straight starts for the Cardinals.

HOUSTON @ CLEVELAND | 8/01 | 7:10 PM EDT

Gerrit Cole vs. Danny Salazar doesn’t sound like much of a matchup. But there is value in the huge underdog Indians. They’ve won eight of 10 at home and have won eight of Salazar’s last nine starts against teams with winning records. The Astros win more than half of my simulations, but it’s close enough to make Cleveland a real value at this price.

The Rays have won eight of their last nine games at Fenway Park, and five of six overall. Rays starter Brendan McKay is unproven, but he tossed five innings of shutout ball in his lone road start this year. Tampa Bay wins more than half of my computer simulations, and at a nice underdog price. Take the value with the Rays.

Trent Thornton is 3-7 with a 5.45 ERA and 2-3 with a 4.70 ERA on the road. In two starts against the Orioles, he has given up three earned runs in 11 IP. Asher Wojciechowski is 2-3 with a 3.60 ERA in six outings this season but in his one outing against the Blue Jays, he gave up three earned runs in 4.1 IP. Both these teams are playing well right now, but the Blue Jays have won three in a row since calling up top prospect Bo Bichette and the Orioles are coming home for the first game after a long road trip. I like the road favorite.
