MLB | Marlins vs Brewers
Play on: Brewers -1½ +110 at 5Dimes
Free Pick on Brewers -
I'm recommending a play on the Brewers to cover the -1.5 run line in Thursday's home game against the Marlins. Milwaukee has strung together back-to-back wins behind two outstanding pitching performances by Junior Guerra and Zach Davies. Those two combined with their strong bullpen held the Reds to just 6 hits in those two games.
I think we could see another dominant pitching performance tonight and also get a lot more production out of the offense. Milwaukee will send out Chase Anderson who has started out 2018 in impressive fashion. Anderson as a surprise breakout star for the Brewers in 2017, going 12-4 with a 2.74 ERA and has posted a 2.82 ERA and 0.99 WHIP over his first 4 starts of this season.
He'll face a Marlins offense that has scored 3 or fewer runs in 9 of their last 13 games. The Brewers offense on the other hand should be in for a big day against Dillon Peters, who has an ugly 6.75 ERA and 1.704 WHIP in 3 starts this season.
Brewers are 21-9 on the run line in Anderson's last 31 starts following a win and 21-8 as a team over their last 29 on the run line after allowing 1 run or less. Take Milwaukee -1.5!

MLB | Blue Jays vs Yankees
Play on: Blue Jays +143 at betonline
Jack’s Free Pick Thursday: Toronto Blue Jays +143
The Toronto Blue Jays are off to one of their best starts in team history. They have gone 12-5, which includes a four-game winning streak in which they have scored a combined 39 runs while hitting .291 as a team.
Aaron Sanchez is coming off one of the best starts of his career. He lost a no-hit bid in the eighth inning against Baltimore, allowing one run on three hits while throwing 60 of 98 pitches for strikes in a 2-1 victory. He threw 29 changeups in the win and will be using that pitch more as a weapon moving forward.
It’s hard to expect C.C. Sabathia to be too effective in his first start back from the disabled list. A hip injured forced him out of his April 6th start against Baltimore after four innings when he allowed three runs and four hits in a 7-3 loss. The left-hander is 2-7 with a 7.37 ERA in his last 12 starts against Toronto dating back to 2015.
The Blue Jays are 6-1 in their last seven games vs. a left-handed starter. Toronto is 5-0 in its last five during Game 1 of a series. The Blue Jays are 5-1 in Sanchez’s last six during Game 1 of a series. The Yankees are 3-9 in Sabathia’s last 12 starts against Toronto. Bet the Blue Jays Thursday.
