4 Unit Play. Take #911 Arizona Diamondbacks -120 over San Diego Padres (10:10 PM, Saturday, May 20)
The Arizona Diamondbacks will look for their fifth win in a row when the take on the Padres at Petco Park in San Diego, CA on Saturday night. Robbie Ray (2-3, 4.57 ERA, 1.43 WHIP) will get the start for the Diamondbacks and he will be opposed by Luis Perdomo (0-0, 4.19 ERA, 1.28 WHIP), who is scheduled to get the call on the hill for the Padres. Arizona has posted a 5-1 record in their last six games following a win and they have gone an excellent 6-1 in Ray's last seven starts versus a NL West Division rival. The Padres, on the other hand, have struggled a bit in the spot they are in here tonight as they have gone just 1-4 in their last five games following a loss and they are an awful 1-6 in their last seven home games when facing a team with a losing record on the road. Throw in the fact that the DBacks have won four of the last five head to head meetings between the two teams and we'll lay the short price with them here to get the road win in San Diego on Saturday night.
4 Unit Play. Take #918 Houston Astros -120 over Cleveland Indians (4:10 PM, Saturday, May 20)
The Houston Astros will look for their fifth win in their last six games when they take on the Cleveland Indians at Minute Maid Park in Houston, TX on Saturday afternoon. Mike Fiers (1-1, 5.75 ERA, 1.47 WHIP) will get the start for the Astros and he will be opposed by Mike Clevenger (1-1, 2.61 ERA, 1.26 WHIP), who is scheduled to get the call on the hill for the Indians. Houston has posted a perfect 5-0 record in their last five games following a loss and they have gone an excellent 9-3 in their last twelve home games. The Indians, on the other hand, have struggled a bit in the spot they are in here today as they have gone just 3-7 in their last ten games where they faced a right-handed starter and they have lost five of Clevenger's last six starts when facing a team with a winning record. Throw in the fact that the Astros are a lights out 13-5 in Fiers' last eighteen home starts and we'll lay the small price with them here to get the home win in Houston on Saturday afternoon.
4 Unit Play. Take #925 Texas Rangers +140 over Detroit Tigers (7:15 PM, Saturday, May 20)
The Texas Rangers will look to extend their win streak to eleven games when they take on the Tigers at Comerica Park in Detroit, MI on Saturday night. AJ Griffin (4-0, 3.15 ERA, 1.02 WHIP) will get the start for the Rangers and he will be opposed by Justin Verlander (3-3, 4.47 ERA, 1.43 WHIP), who is scheduled to get the call on the hill for the Tigers. The Rangers have posted a perfect 8-0 record in their last eight games where they faced a right-handed starter and they have gone an excellent 6-2 in their last eight games versus a team from the AL Central Division. The Tigers, on the other hand, have struggled a bit in the spot they are in here tonight as they have lost five of their last seven games when facing a team from the AL West Division and they have gone an awful 6-13 in their last nineteen home games versus a team with a road winning % of .400 or lower. Throw in the fact that the Rangers are a perfect 7-0 in their last seven trips to Comerica Park and we'll take them at the underdog price to get the road win in Detroit on Saturday night.

4 Unit Play. Take #906 Pittsburgh -120 over Philadelphia (4:05p.m., Saturday May 20)
Last night in PNC Park in Pittsburgh the Phillies stole Game #1 of this weekend series and tonight the Buccs look to even up this weekend series. Pirates starter Ivan Nova takes the mound and Nova hasn't pitched at home since April 23 when the Pirates beat the Yankees 2-1 and tonight I see a quality start from Nova. Nova's control has been really good this year only allowing 4 BB and his ERA is 2.48 in 8 starts and I see him keeping the ball low and puzzling the Phillies batters. Philadelphia is 3-12 in their last 15 games and the Phillies are 0-6 after scoring 5 runs or more in their last game. Pittsburgh is 7-3 against NL East teams and the Pirates are 8-2 in PNC Park against the Phillies.
