Doubleheader Game #2
#951 CHICAGO CUBS @ #952 CINCINNATI - 7:10 PM
•Cubs LH Tsuyoshi Wada (NR) - Wada was added to the Cubs' roster as the 26th man and is set for his major-league debut after posting a 9-5 record and a 2.66 ERA in 17 games (16 starts) at Triple-A Iowa. The 33-year-old veteran of the Japanese leagues averaged nearly a strikeout per inning in nine pro seasons in Japan and has shown the same type of stuff in the minors. Wada has gone at least six innings in 13 of his 16 starts this season, which bodes well for the Cubs' bullpen usage in the doubleheader.

•Reds LH David Holmberg (2013: 0-0, 7.36 ERA, WHIP: N/A) - Holmberg is poised for his second big-league start after an uneven debut for Arizona last season in which he allowed three runs and six hits in 3 2/3 innings. The 22-year-old is still a promising prospect but has had a rough time at Triple-A Louisville, going 0-4 with a 5.28 ERA in 10 starts. Those numbers are skewed by a couple of terrible outings early in the season, though, and he has given up only three runs in 22 1/3 innings over his last four starts.

#953 ATLANTA @ #954 NY METS - 7:10 PM
•Braves RH Julio Teheran (8-5, 2.29 ERA, WHIP: 0.952) - Teheran held the Mets to one run on four hits in seven innings Wednesday as Atlanta won 3-1. Since allowing seven runs at Colorado on June 11, Teheran has surrendered six earned runs with five walks and 30 strikeouts in 29 innings across his past four starts. Teheran hit 13 batters in 185 2/3 innings last season, but has plunked only three in 126 innings this year.

--KEY STAT: TEHERAN is 19-5 UNDER (+13.4 Units) when playing against a team with a losing record over the last 2 seasons. (Team's Record)
The average score was TEHERAN 3.5, OPPONENT 2.8.

--TEHERAN is 16-6 UNDER (+9.1 Units) against division opponents over the last 2 seasons. (Team's Record)
The average score was TEHERAN 3.5, OPPONENT 2.8.

•Mets RH Jacob DeGrom (1-5, 3.77 ERA, WHIP: 1.408) - DeGrom lost at Atlanta on Wednesday, giving up three runs on six hits with eight strikeouts in five innings. The 26-year-old rookie has won just once in his first 10 starts, but has given up three earned runs or less eight times. deGrom has not allowed a homer in his past five starts, and in his past three appearances is 1-1 with a 2.49 ERA in 18 2/3 innings.

#955 PHILADELPHIA @ #956 MILWAUKEE - 8:10 PM
•Phillies RH Kyle Kendrick (3-8, 4.12 ERA, WHIP: 1.326) - Kendrick left Thursday’s 5-4 victory against the Miami Marlins in line for the win after allowing two runs on six hits over seven frames, but settled for a no-decision when the bullpen failed to hold the lead. The Houston native, who is 1-4 with a 4.53 ERA in nine road turns, has surrendered 16 of his 50 earned runs in the first inning. Kendrick suffered his first loss of the season on April 8 versus the Brewers, falling to 1-5 with a 4.06 ERA in nine appearances (six starts) against them after yielding six runs (four earned) over five innings.

--KEY STAT: KENDRICK is 14-1 against the run line (+12.5 Units) in road games when playing against a good team (Win Pct. 54% to 62%) since 1997. (Team's Record)
The average score was KENDRICK 5.7, OPPONENT 3.0.

--KENDRICK is 10-1 UNDER (+9.0 Units) versus teams who strand 6.9 or less runners on base per game in the second half of the season over the last 3 seasons. (Team's Record)
The average score was KENDRICK 2.7, OPPONENT 3.8.

•Brewers RH Wily Peralta (9-5, 3.35 ERA, WHIP: 1.295) - Failing to factor into the decision for the first time in nine outings, Peralta gave up four runs on nine hits over six frames in the Brewers’ 7-4 setback against the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday. After going 4-4 with a 2.12 ERA over his first 10 starts, the 25-year-old has managed to go on a career-high five-game winning streak despite posting a 4.50 ERA over that stretch. Peralta registered both of his career starts versus the Phillies over a five-day stretch in June 2013, going 1-1 with a 5.25 ERA in those outings.

#957 PITTSBURGH @ #958 ST LOUIS - 8:15 PM
•Pirates RH Vance Worley (2-1, 2.28 ERA, WHIP: 0.940) - Worley's first loss in four starts with Pittsburgh was a tough one to swallow, as he let up three runs on four hits in seven innings against Arizona on Thursday but received little run support. It was his fourth quality start in as many outings since being called up in June. Worley has never pitched in St. Louis but has made two prior starts against the Cardinals, allowing five runs in 11 1/3 frames.

The 22-year-old has yet to get past five frames as a starter in 2014 but owns a 2.45 ERA and has not allowed a home run in 18 1/3 innings in that role.

•Marlins LH Brad Hand (0-1, 6.21 ERA, WHIP: 1.759) - Hand will be making his second straight start and fourth overall to go along with 14 relief outings for Miami. He gave up three runs in five innings of a no-decision against Philadelphia on Thursday, limiting the Phils to one walk after issuing 16 free passes in his first 24 innings this year.

•Diamondbacks LH Vidal Nuno (2-5, 5.42 ERA, WHIP: 1.357) - Nuno had an inconsistent stay with New York, ending it with five innings of four-run ball against Tampa Bay at home on Wednesday.

For as good as Justin Verlander is Hyun-Jin Ryu has been even better. Ryu has been sensational on the road this year and the Tigers really need to get their bullpen in order if they want to make noise in the fall. This could easily be a World Series Preview. Take the Dodgers.

The Cubs have lost 3 in a row and have only scored 4 runs in those games.

Cincinnati on the other hand has won 5 of 6 home games and 2 in a row. Johnny Cueto is having another All-Star season going 8-6 with a 1.99ERA. He’s also 3-1 with a 2.55ERA in his last 5 starts. In 19 starts against the Cubs, he’s 8-6 with a 2.91ERA.

The price is high but the Reds will get the job done early on with a chance for the Cubs to make their move in the second game between them which we’ll stay far away from.

New York Yankees -1 (-122)

Risking 3.26 units to win 2.67 units 7:05pm start

Tanaka/Bauer must start

The Yankees are getting their act together and they’ll be riding in with enough confidence especially when they’re backed by one of the best arms in the game right now. New York has won 5 of 6 road games, 2 in a row and 12 of their last 14 over the Indians.

The Yankees are 7-1 when Tanaka starts on the road while the Indians are 3-8 against a righty starter. Tanaka is 6-2 with a 2.30ERA in 8 starts. Overall he’s 12-3 with a 2.27ERA.

Trevor Bauer gets the nod for Cleveland and he’s coming in with a 0-1, 4.91ERA in his last 3 starts. His 2-4, 4.42ERA will be put to the test against a Yankee team that has found its groove in recent games. The Bronx Bombers have brought in 5 or more runs in 4 out of their last 5.

Take the Yankees on the moneyline if you wish, but after taking the Reds for a higher price, I’d recommend buying down to the -1 at -122 odds. Remember to use the excel sheet I’ve given you or the following link to easily calculate -1 lines if your book doesn’t offer it.

STATSYSTEMS SPORTS INTERLEAGUE PITCHING REPORT

#975 BALTIMORE @ #976 WASHINGTON - 7:05 PM
•Orioles RH Bud Norris (7-5, 3.62 ERA, WHIP: 1.161) - Norris has been sidelined with a groin injury but will come off the 15-day disabled list to make his first start since June 21. Norris won his last four starts before getting hurt and allowed a total of two runs over 19 2/3 innings in his last three outings. Norris is 2-0 with a 3.66 ERA in three career starts against the Nationals, but must be wary of Ryan Zimmerman, who is 4-for-11 with a pair of homers against him.

--KEY STAT: NORRIS is 21-8 UNDER (+11.4 Units) versus teams whose hitters strike out 7 or more times/game over the last 2 seasons. (Team's Record)
The average score was NORRIS 4.0, OPPONENT 3.5.

•Nationals RH Doug Fister (7-2, 2.93 ERA, WHIP: 1.047) - Fister continues to churn out quality starts for the Nationals, giving up three runs and seven hits over seven innings to beat Colorado on Wednesday. It marked the ninth time in 10 starts Fister has permitted three runs or fewer and the sixth start in that span in which he has pitched at least seven innings. Fister is 3-2 with a 5.30 ERA against Baltimore but has won all five of his home starts this season.

#977 LA DODGERS @ #978 DETROIT - 7:05 PM
•Dodgers LH Hyun-Jin Ryu (9-4, 3.08 ERA, WHIP: 1.194) - Ryu is 6-1 with a 1.62 ERA in eight road starts, yielding 38 hits in 50 innings overall and lasting at least six innings in his last seven appearances away from home. He has produced a quality start in eight of his last nine outings, including a no-decision against Cleveland at home on Wednesday when he permitted two runs in seven innings while striking out eight. Ryu, who has never faced Detroit, is 2-2 with a 4.23 ERA in six career interleague starts.

--KEY STAT: RYU is 23-11 (+10.9 Units) against the money line in night games over the last 2 seasons. (Team's Record)

The former MVP has struck out 20 batters while walking only two over that stretch. The 31-year-old, who will be making his first career start against Los Angeles, gave up 22 runs (18 earned) over three home starts before limiting Oakland to two runs in six innings of a 9-3 victory in Detroit last Wednesday.

--KEY STAT: VERLANDER is 5-11 (-14.7 Units) against the money line versus teams whose hitters strike out 7 or more times/game in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons. (Team's Record)

#979 SAN FRANCISCO @ #980 OAKLAND - 10:05 PM
•Giants LH Madison Bumgarner (9-6, 3.09 ERA, WHIP: 1.197) - Although he managed to drive in a run with a third-inning single to give him a career-high eight RBIs this season, Bumgarner struggled on the mound for the second straight time in Thursday’s 7-2 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals as he surrendered five runs (four earned)) over five innings. The two-time All-Star selection fell to 3-5 with a 5.16 ERA in nine home outings as a result, but has been much stingier in the same number of starts on the road (6-1, 1.32 ERA). Bumgarner is 1-1 with a 5.68 ERA in two career turns against Oakland.

--KEY STAT: BUMGARNER is 15-6 (+9.6 Units) against the money line in road games versus teams whose hitters strike out 7 or more times/game over the last 2 seasons. (Team's Record)
The average score was BUMGARNER 4.6, OPPONENT 2.8.

•Athletics RH Sonny Gray (8-3, 3.08 ERA, WHIP: 1.207) - Gray rebounded from one of his worst starts of the season on June 28, allowing one run and four hits over seven frames in a 4-1 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays last Thursday. The No. 18 overall pick of the 2011 draft, who gave up two or fewer runs in seven of his first 10 turns, recorded only his second such outing since May 22 in the win. Gray has yet to factor into a decision despite a 5.14 ERA in three interleague appearances (two starts) and will face the Giants for the first time.
