Kansas City Royals vs Cleveland Indians Take: Kansas City Royals +104 |
 |
in 2h | ||
| *3 Star MLB Early Bird Special* This is a matchup between two teams who are on different sides of the expectations game in the first half of the season. Kansas City has under performed while Cleveland has over performed. I do think there is value on the Royals in this one because they have the much better starting pitcher. James Shields is much more consistent than Ubaldo Jimenez. Jimenez has been particularly bad at home this year, and he hasn't had a lot of luck against Kansas City in the past. The Royals are 8-0 in Shields' last 8 starts. They are 4-0 in his last 4 road starts. Cleveland is 0-4 in their last 4 games when scoring 5 or more runs in previous day. Take the Royals. | ||||||

Washington Nationals vs Miami Marlins Take: Washington Nationals -125 |
 |
in 2h | ||
| *3 Star MLB Moneyline Value* The Miami Marlins have been playing better of late, but they still have no business winning a series against a solid team like the Washington Nationals. Taylor Jordan dominated in the minor leagues, and I expect him to have a nice career with the Nationals. Miami's lineup isn't much better than a typical triple A lineup. Henderson Alvarez has been very inconsistent in his young career, and the Nationals' lineup is much better with Bryce Harper healthy. A lot of value on Washington here. Take the Nationals. | ||||||

Los Angeles Angels vs Seattle Mariners Take: Seattle Mariners -125 |
 |
in 5h | ||
| *3 Star MLB Moneyline Cash* Joe Blanton has cost Angels bettors a lot of money so far this year. It hasn't really been a case of bad luck. Instead, Blanton has just been consistently bad. He is 2-11 this year with an ERA well above 5. On the other side, Hisashi Iwakuma has been very good this year for the Mariners. He struggled in his last outing, but I look for him to bounce back Sunday. In 6 career appearances against the Angels Iwakuma has a ridiculously low 1.03 ERA. Not surprisingly the Mariners are 5-0 in Iwakuma's last 5 starts against the Angels. Take Seattle. | ||||||

Milwaukee Brewers vs Arizona Diamondbacks Take: Total 9 un-117 |
|
in 5h | ||
| *3 Star MLB Total Domination* Ron Kulpa is one of my favorite under umpires, and he'll be behind the plate for this game. Kulpa has one of the biggest strike zones in all of baseball and both of these pitchers should benefit from that expanded zone. The under is 22-6-1 in Kulpa's last 29 Sunday games behind home plate. Wily Peralta is a young prospect for the Brewers who has improved a lot in his last few starts. Milwaukee's lineup is very short handed without Ryan Braun and Aramis Ramirez. The total is posted a little too high here. Take the under. | ||||||

Colorado Rockies vs Los Angeles Dodgers Take: Los Angeles Dodgers -124 |
 |
in 5h | ||
| *4 Star MLB Play of Day* Ricky Nolasco will make his second start for the Dodgers and his first start at Dodgers Stadium. The Rockies lineup was shut out by Zack Greinke yesterday and I expect them to struggled again on Sunday against Nolasco. Yasiel Puig might now play in this one, but the Dodgers still definitely have the better lineup. The price here seems more than fair considering how well the Dodgers are playing.The Dodgers are 9-0 in their last 9 as a favorite of -110 to -150. They are 7-1 in their last 8 overall. The Rockies are 1-6 in Chacin's last 7 starts as a road underdog. Take the Dodgers. | ||||||
