Game: New York Yankees @ Tampa Bay Rays
Time: Sunday 04/20 1:40 PM Eastern
Pick: Tampa Bay -128 (moneyline) at 5Dimes
Tampa Bay is up to 13th in baseball in runs scored and sixth in on-base percentage after yesterday's 16-1 rout of the Yankees. James Loney drove in four runs and the Rays overcame a four-run deficit the day prior. The Yankees have a losing road record and are 2-12 in their last 14 when their opponent scores five runs or more in their previous game. The Yankees are also 0-8 as an underdog of +110 to +150. New York goes with lefty Vidal Nuno, who is no stopper with a 14.54 ERA in three appearances! The Rays are 35-16 as a home favorite and 9-2 in their last 11 home games vs. a team with a winning record. Tampa Bay has won five of the last six with New York, and the Yankees are 7-18 in the last 25 meetings in Tampa Bay. Play the Tampa Bay Rays.
Chicago has lost 37 of the last 56 games against the spread when playing as a favorite of 3.5 to 9.5 points and they have also lost 52 of the last 87 home games against the spread. Chicago has lost 15 of the last 24 games against the spread when playing on a Sunday and they have lost 11 of the last 17 games against the spread coming off two games with eleven or less turnovers.

St. Louis Cardinals vs. Washington Nationals
St. Louis Cardinals RL+1½-160
St. Louis (Miller) at Washington (Strasburg) (-150) at 1:35ET
5* St. Louis +150
The Cards held on for the 4-3 victory last night. Though we got back-doored on the run line when the Nats scored single runs in the 8th and 9th. That S.t Louis victory boosts their regular season record against Washington to 9-1. Over that time, the Nats have just a .163 BA. Strasburg remains overpriced. In his most recent outing, Strasburg last just 6 inning, allowing 6 runs on 8 hits in an 11-2 loss to Miami. That balloons the Strasburg ERA to 6.00 for the season over which time he has allowed 33 BR in 21 IP. Far prefer Miller who comes off a solid outing in the 6-1 win vs. Milwaukee. Lasting 6 IP, Miller allowed just 1 run on 3 hits with 7 Ks. In 12 2/3 IP last year against Washington, Miller allowed just 1 earned run on 7 hits. We take this series dominator at an underdog price.
