(MLB) TEXAS -125 BOSTON (3PM)
The Rangers throw Rodriguez (2-2, 3.60 ERA) who gave up one run and four hits over 6 2/3 innings in a 3-1 win at Fenway Park on May 21. He should be able to replicate that success against a Boston team that is hitting an AL-worst .214 versus lefties. Boston counters with Joe Kelly (1-4, 6.24) who may be on the verge of losing his place in the rotation after he was tagged for seven runs and eight hits in a career-low 1 2/3 innings in Monday's 7-2 loss at Minnesota. Texas is hitting, averaging 7.8 runs in its previous six games. Rangers it is..
SYDNEY ST GEORGE
(MLB) TORONTO/MINNESOTA UNDER 8 +100 (2PM) 2 UNITS**************
Toronto starter Hutchison (4-1, 5.12 ERA) is coming off his best game of the season Monday as he threw 96 pitches in a four-hitter for his second career shutout in a 6-0 victory. Minnesota starter Nolasco (5-1, 5.12) has posted a 3.77 ERA in winning all five starts since returning from DL. Did you know these right-handed starters have combined for nine wins even though each has a 5.12 ERA as they match up Sunday at Target Field. I still like the under. Both pitchers have pitched well as of late. This total posted seems low for a reason. Just like Fridays Nationals game total... Under it is..

dime bet – 974 OAK / 973 NYY – UNDER 7.5
Analysis: I’m playing the Under between the Yankees & A’s with Warren and Chavez the expected starters. Neither of these lineups have hit well in the situation they’re in today. The Yankees have struggled on the road in team batting average and OBP this season. They rank 29th in batting average in day games, to go along with the 25th ranked daytime OBP, while the A’s are nearly as bad. Add in the 24th ranked ballpark OBP and we have most of the ingredients we need for a low scoring game. The rest is up to pitching and I believe it’s going to be pretty good on Sunday. Warren owns a 1.24 WHIP in nine starts in 2015 and a 2.19 ERA in his last five appearances against the A’s. Yankee opponents have averaged just 2 rpg in his last three starts. Jesse Chavez has been terrific in his seven starts, allowing just two home runs in 45 innings of work with seven Oakland opponents averaging just 3 rpg, overall. He’s tossed 17 2/3 innings against the Yankees over the previous three seasons, posting a 2.55 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, and .200 BAA. And with Chavez pitching deep, eating up innings, he should put less pressure on the pen. The Under is 4-1 in Warren’s last five starts with the total posted from 7 to 8 1/2. And the Under is on a 4-0-1 run in Oakland games when Chavez toes the rubber. If that’s not enough, we have a scheduled home plate umpire with a wider than average strike zone. The Under is on a 9-2 run when Paul Nauert calls balls & strikes.
I’m playing the Under between the Yankees & A’s, my Total Dominator on Sunday.
Washington is a .500 road team and dealing with injuries to star players. Bryce Harper was a late scratch on Saturday with a bruised back suffered when he was hit by a pitched in Friday’s contest. Washington lost 8-5 yesterday, and the Friday loss featured the departure of right-hander Stephen Strasburg (shoulder), who was placed on the disabled list. The Nationals are 2-7 on the road against a team with a losing record. Cincinnati is getting healthier, winning two in a row and three of four. Cincinnati 2B Brandon Phillips returned to the starting lineup on Saturday, and 1B Joey Votto homered in each of the first two games of the series. The Reds have a good arm going in Michael Lorenzen (3.12), they are 4-0 versus the NL East, plus 4-1 as a home dog of +110 to +150. Play the Reds.
Cincinnati has lost 7 consecutive games when playing on a Sunday and they have lost 13 of the last 17 day games. Cincinnati has lost 7 consecutive games after having won three of the last four games and they have lost 17 of the last 25 games when playing as an underdog of +100 or higher.
