Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Miami Marlins Preview and Predictions 05-15-2018

14th May 2018 by Gracenote
the dodgers are off to their worst 40-game start since beginning the 1958 season - their first in los angeles - with a 15-25 mark as they open a six-game road trip tuesday against the miami marlins. the dodgers (16-24) are coming off a four-game sweep at the hands of cincinnati, the worst team in the national league, and have lost seven of their last eight, but help is on the way for the defending national league champions.

"this might be more difficult to turn the page after losing four to the reds at home," los angeles manager dave roberts told reporters. "i just want to clear this from my mind." the mood is sure to improve when third baseman justin turner (.303 in four years with the dodgers) and second baseman logan forsythe (shoulder) return from the disabled list tuesday, marking the season debut for turner (fractured wrist). miami (14-26) has lost six of its last seven games, including three of four against atlanta to start its seven-game homestand, and - as expected - sits last in the nl east. los angeles' alex wood makes his ninth start in search of his first victory of the season and opposes wei-yin chen, who gave up a career-high nine runs in his last outing.

pitching matchup: dodgers lh alex wood (0-3, 3.60 era) vs. marlins rh wei-yin chen (1-2, 10.22)

wood earned his fifth no-decision of the young season after allowing one run, five hits and three walks while striking out four in five innings of los angeles' 6-3 victory over arizona on wednesday, improving the dodgers to 4-4 in his outings. the 27-year-old north carolina native has recorded only three quality starts this season but yielded more than three runs only twice. starlin castro is 5-for-7 versus wood, who is 6-3 with a 2.73 era in 13 games (10 starts) against miami.
chen also allowed seven hits and two walks in three innings of a 13-4 loss to the cubs in chicago on wednesday, prompting manager don mattingly to tell reporters: "he didn't miss any bats." the 32-year-old native of taiwan was making his third start of the season after recovering from a strained left elbow. forsythe is batting .393 with three homers, two doubles, a triple and six rbis in 28 at-bats versus chen, who is 2-0 with a 2.13 era in two starts versus the dodgers.
walk-offs

1. c yasmani grandal leads los angeles in home runs (six) and rbis (24) after belting a solo shot sunday.

2. marlins 3b brian anderson (finger) and ss miguel rojas (wrist) are day-to-day after leaving sunday's 4-3 loss to atlanta in the eighth inning.
3. the teams have split their last 14 meetings since 2016 with miami winning the series 6-1 that season and the dodgers returning the favor in 2017.

Toronto Blue Jays vs. New York Mets Preview and Predictions 05-15-2018

14th May 2018 by Gracenote
the new york mets and toronto blue jays have followed their rapid ascents in the standings with pronounced declines, relegating both to just one win over .500. the mets have answered an 11-1 start with losses in 17 of 25 contests heading into tuesday's opener of an abbreviated two-game interleague series against the visiting blue jays, who have dropped seven of their last 10.

asdrubal cabrera has five two-hit performances in his last eight outings, including in both contests of new york's two-game split in philadelphia. yoenis cespedes highlighted his two-hit showing with a solo homer in sunday's 4-2 setback versus the phillies, but he is just 1-for-8 with three strikeouts versus tuesday starter jaime garcia. toronto may be happy to cross the border after dropping eight of its last 11 home games following sunday's 5-3 setback against boston. russell martin, who collected three hits in that contest to match his sum total over his previous seven games, will face tuesday starter noah syndergaard for the first time in his career.

tv: 7:10 p.m. et, sportsnet one (toronto), sny (new york)
pitching matchup: blue jays lh jaime garcia (2-2, 5.40 era) vs. mets rh noah syndergaard (2-1, 3.09)
garcia kept the ball in the park for the first time this season on wednesday, but five walks drove up his pitch count and left him with a no-decision versus seattle. the 31-year-old allowed just two runs on a season-low three hits in that contest, which marked his best showing since his 2018 debut in a no-decision against the chicago white sox. garcia hasn't received the best results versus new york, however, as he owns a 2-5 mark despite posting a respectable 3.18 era while limiting the mets to a .258 batting average.
syndergaard has delivered four consecutive quality starts and takes the mound on tuesday on eight day's rest. the 25-year-old yielded two runs on six hits in as many innings versus colorado on may 6, but four walks drove up his pitch count. syndergaard has limited the current roster of the blue jays to a .176 batting average with seven strikeouts in 17 at-bats, although his lone encounter with toronto came in 2015.
walk-offs

1. toronto cf kevin pillar, who leads the team with a .308 batting average, is 6-for-14 in his career versus new york.

2. the mets' seven home wins are the second fewest in the national league (cincinnati, six).

3. blue jays 3b josh donaldson is 7-for-21 with three doubles in his last five games.

prediction: blue jays 3, mets 2

Chicago Cubs vs. Atlanta Braves Preview and Predictions 05-15-2018

14th May 2018 by Gracenote
There's a bit of a playoff feeling brewing between the Atlanta Braves and Chicago Cubs this week, and not just because of the shifting locales. Two National League contenders square off for the second straight day - but in a different city - when the Braves host the Cubs to open a three-game series Tuesday.

In an odd twist, the teams met in Chicago on Monday to make up a game that was postponed due to inclement weather last month. Atlanta pounded three homers en route to a 6-5 win, including what proved to be a game-winning three-run blast from Jose Bautista. The Braves have won three straight and six of their last seven to move 10 games above .500 for the first time since July 28, 2014, giving them the best record in the NL. Kris Bryant homered Monday for his sixth in his last 11 games for the Cubs, who have lost two straight following a five-game winning streak.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Cubs RH Yu Darvish (0-3, 6.00 ERA) vs. Braves RH Mike Foltynewicz (3-2, 3.21)
Darvish is set to come off the disabled list and make his first start since May 2 after having his last outing scrapped due to flu-like symptoms. The 31-year-old is off to a disappointing start with only two quality starts in his first six outings. Darvish faced the Braves for the first time on April 13 in Chicago and allowed four runs on nine hits over 4 2/3 innings in a 4-0 loss.

Foltynewicz has allowed two or fewer earned runs in seven of his eight starts with one rough outing against San Francisco mixed in May 4. The 26-year-old bounced back with a strong performance last time out, holding Miami to one unearned run and three hits over five innings. Foltynewicz is 0-2 with a 7.36 ERA in two starts against the Cubs, but he allowed only two runs over 6 1/3 innings in a hard-luck loss last season.
WALK-OFFS

1. After scoring 15 runs in Darvish's first two starts, the Cubs have totaled only seven in his last four outings.

2. The Braves have homered in a season-high seven straight games.
3. Atlanta RF Nick Markakis is 11-for-27 with five multi-hit games during a six-game hitting streak.

St. Louis Cardinals vs. Minnesota Twins Preview and Predictions 05-15-2018

15th May 2018 by Gracenote
a st. louis cardinals' offense that was just good enough during their season-high five-game winning streak at the beginning of the month slowed to a crawl last week against the minnesota twins and has yet to pick things up for the most part. the cardinals try to break out of a 2-4 stretch and find a spark for their bats tuesday when they visit the twins in the opener of a two-game set.

after averaging 4.2 runs in sweeps of the chicago white sox and chicago cubs from may 1-6, st. louis mustered only six hits while getting outscored 13-1 by minnesota to conclude its seven-game homestand. the cardinals followed that with a trip to san diego, but it was more of the same outside of one nine-run outburst, as st. louis scored a total of six runs in the other three games while splitting a four-game set with the national league west-worst padres. the twins' offense has also hit a bit of a dry spell of late, totaling one run in their last two games after stringing together 12 consecutive outings with at least four. minnesota left nine runners on base in sunday's 2-1 defeat at the los angeles angels and tallied only four hits en route to a 1-0 setback versus seattle on monday.
tv: 8:10 p.m. et, fox sports 1
pitching matchup: cardinals rh jack flaherty (0-1, 3.60 era) vs. twins rh jose berrios (3-4, 4.50)

flaherty will draw his third start of the season and first since an april 28 loss at pittsburgh in which he gave three runs on four hits and four walks across five innings. the 2014 first-round selection is coming off a dominant outing at triple-a memphis on wednesday, allowing one run on six hits while fanning 13 in 6 2/3 frames. flaherty, who yielded one run and struck out nine over five innings against milwaukee on april 3, is 4-1 with a 2.27 era in five minor-league starts this season.
berrios was handed a loss for the third time in four trips to the mound thursday in anaheim, surrendering five runs - including a pair of homers - on seven hits in 5 1/3 frames versus the los angeles angels. since going 2-1 with a 1.63 era over his first four turns, the 23-year-old puerto rican has posted an 8.84 era during his slump, giving up at least four runs in every outing. berrios is 3-4 with a 3.08 era in seven interleague starts entering his first-ever showdown with the cardinals.
walk-offs

1. the cardinals have played in a major-league high eight extra-inning games (4-4), including three of their last eight contests.

2. minnesota of eddie rosario is batting .357 with seven doubles, seven home runs and 17 rbis over his last 17 games.
3. st. louis ss paul dejong has four rbis over his last 16 games, all of which came in friday's 9-5 win over san diego.

Tampa Bay Rays vs. Kansas City Royals Preview and Predictions 05-15-2018

14th May 2018 by Gracenote
the tampa bay rays responded to an embarrassing performance with a strong one and can clinch a rare series win at kauffman stadium when they visit the kansas city royals on tuesday night for the middle contest of the three-game set. the rays were winless in eight straight series (0-7-1) at kansas city before taking two of three at kauffman last august and edged the royals 2-1 on monday after giving up 17 runs one day earlier.

tampa bay's c.j. cron scored the first run monday to help even the all-time series with kansas city at 77-77 while extending his career-high on-base streak to 20 games and hitting safely in his seventh straight contest (11-for-29). anthony banda gets the start tuesday for the rays after being recalled and the royals will counter with veteran ian kennedy, who has pitched in bad luck much of the season before getting pounded last time out. kansas city lost for the fifth time in six games monday and has allowed 44 runs during that stretch. whit merrifield had a homer and two singles in the series opener to extend his hitting streak to eight games (14-for-30), while jon jay was stranded after a triple in the ninth inning monday and has hit safely in seven straight (12-for-33).
tv: 8:15 p.m. et, fs sun (tampa bay), fs kansas city
pitching matchup: rays lh anthony banda (2017: 2-3, 5.96) vs. royals rh ian kennedy (1-4, 4.61)

banda makes his first appearance for tampa bay after being acquired from arizona in the deal that sent outfielder steven souza to the diamondbacks. the 24-year-old texas native made eight appearances (four starts) with arizona last season, yielding just one home run in 25 2/3 innings with 25 strikeouts, and went 2-0 with a 2.16 era on the road in three games. banda is 4-2 with a 3.50 era in seven outings for triple-a durham with 44 strikeouts in 36 innings.
kennedy turned in his worst start of the season thursday when he permitted nine runs on eight hits (three homers) across four innings versus baltimore. the 33-year-old usc product, who is six strikeouts from 1,500 in his career, had yielded two or fewer runs in five of seven starts in 2018 - including six scoreless innings against detroit on may 4. brad miller is 3-for-6 with a homer versus kennedy, who is 1-5 with a 5.76 era in nine career games against tampa bay.
walk-offs

1. tampa bay 3b matt duffy knocked in a pair of runs monday and is 10-for-20 with five rbis during a five-game hitting streak

2. kansas city placed 1b/dh lucas duda (foot) on the 10-day disabled list monday and recalled inf/of hunter dozier from triple-a omaha.
3. the rays are 7-3 against american league central opponents while the royals are 2-8 versus the al east.

Milwaukee Brewers vs. Arizona Diamondbacks Preview and Predictions 05-15-2018

15th May 2018 by Gracenote
the milwaukee brewers are 4-1 at the midway point of a 10-game road trip and look to tack on another victory when they visit the slumping arizona diamondbacks on tuesday in the second contest of a three-game set. the brewers opened the series with a 7-2 win on monday when tyler saladino hit the 28th inside-the-park homer in franchise history.

jonathan villar went 3-for-4 with a homer and scored three runs in monday's victory as milwaukee tallied at least seven runs for the third time in the past four games. veteran ryan braun was scratched from the lineup due to back tightness as he suffers through a 3-for-29 funk as well as not having gone deep since april 20. arizona is experiencing all kinds of problems with six consecutive losses to follow up a strong 24-11 start. slugger paul goldschmidt is mired in a 26-game homerless drought and has just two rbis during the unproductive stretch along with a woeful season batting average of .211.

pitching matchup: brewers rh jhoulys chacin (3-1, 3.00 era) vs. diamondbacks rh zack greinke (3-2, 3.70)

chacin is 3-0 over his last five starts and unbeaten over his last seven turns. the 30-year-old defeated the colorado rockies in his last outing when he gave up two runs and four hits over 5 1/3 innings. chacin is 6-4 with a 3.48 era in 17 career appearances (16 starts) against the diamondbacks and has struggled with ketel marte (4-for-10) and a.j. pollock (4-for-11, one homer).

greinke received back-to-back no-decisions despite allowing just two runs and nine hits over 12 2/3 innings during the stretch. the 34-year-old has won five straight home starts dating back to last season and 15 of his past 16. greinke is 1-3 with a 4.20 era in six career appearances (five starts) versus the brewers and has experienced issues with chacin (4-for-11) while shutting down braun (1-for-10).
walk-offs

1. brewers lhp josh hader fired two scoreless innings in the opener and has struck out 50 in 25 innings while allowing just seven hits.
2. pollock (left thumb) departed in the ninth inning after he made an unsuccessful diving attempt to snare saladino's liner, which allowed the milwaukee pinch hitter to circle the bases.

3. milwaukee of christian yelich had two hits for his fifth multi-hit game in may despite not entering monday's game until the seventh inning.

Houston Astros vs. Los Angeles Angels Preview and Predictions 05-15-2018

15th May 2018 by Gracenote
houston right-hander gerrit cole is off to a sensational start with his lone loss of the season coming against the los angeles angels on april 23. cole will try to avenge that setback when the astros visit the angels on tuesday in the middle contest of a three-game set.

cole leads the majors with 86 strikeouts in just 56 2/3 innings and his 1.43 era is second behind teammate justin verlander (1.21). he gave up just two runs and four hits in his loss to the angels but the houston hitters were blanked by tyler skaggs and two relievers. justin upton delivered the tiebreaking single in the sixth inning in monday's opener as the angels posted a 2-1 victory to move into a virtual tie for first place with the astros in the american league west. albert pujols was hitless in three at-bats in the opener and is mired in a nine-game homerless drought.

pitching matchup: astros rh gerrit cole (4-1, 1.43 era) vs. angels rh jaime barria (3-1, 2.45)
cole has allowed just 30 hits and 12 walks while recording an 0.74 whip and holding opposing batters to a .155 average. the 27-year-old defeated the oakland athletics in his last outing when he gave up one run and four hits and struck out nine in six innings. cole is 1-1 with a 3.15 era in three career starts against the angels and has shut down ian kinsler (2-for-20) and zack cozart (1-for-16).

Texas Rangers vs. Seattle Mariners Preview and Predictions 05-15-2018

15th May 2018 by Gracenote
robinson cano and adrian beltre have combined for 12 all-star game appearances and figure to be remembered as two of the most successful dominican players in major-league history, but neither one is likely to help their respective clubs anytime soon. a pair of american league west rivals missing key run producers renew acquaintances tuesday when the seattle mariners host the texas rangers in the opener of a three-game series.

cano was placed on the 10-day disabled list monday with a fractured fifth metacarpal on his right hand, one day after he was hit by a pitch in detroit. seattle continued its month-long pattern of alternating wins and losses in its first game without him on monday, as dee gordon scored on a throwing error in the eighth inning for the game's only run against minnesota. beltre is likely headed back to the dl after he aggravated the same hamstring injury he returned from less than a week ago after missing 12 games. while the rangers have been significantly better on the road (9-10) than at home (7-16), they hope they can find some offense without their cleanup hitter after scoring exactly one run in every game while dropping two of three in houston over the weekend.
tv: 10:10 p.m. et, fs southwest (texas), root northwest (seattle)
pitching matchup: rangers lh mike minor (3-2, 4.72 era) vs. mariners rh mike leake (4-3, 5.72)

minor watched his five-game unbeaten streak come to an end last tuesday against detroit via the long ball, giving up three homers among the five runs and seven hits he surrendered in a season-high seven frames. the home run total matched the number he allowed in his first six turns combined, and the vanderbilt product has produced only two quality starts. minor enjoyed one of his best outings of the season april 20 against seattle, yielding one run and fanning six over 5 1/3 innings in a no-decision.
leake won for the second time in three trips to the mound thursday in toronto, permitting two runs on six hits while striking out six across seven innings. the outing was the 30-year-old's first quality start since april 13 and only his third in eight turns this season. leake, who is allowing opponents to hit .328 the first time through the order, is 1-1 with a 1.99 era in five career starts against the rangers - including 1-0 with a 1.46 era in two september outings last season.
walk-offs

1. mariners ss jean segura is batting .375 with five doubles, one triple, one homer and 24 rbis with runners in scoring position.

2. texas is one of two teams (new york yankees) to avoid a shutout in 2018.

3. seattle inf gordon beckham was recalled from triple-a tacoma to replace cano on monday and went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in his season debut.

Cincinnati Reds vs. San Francisco Giants Preview and Predictions 05-15-2018

15th May 2018 by Gracenote
after a sluggish start, andrew mccutchen finally appears to be settling in with the san francisco giants. the veteran right fielder is riding a 13-game hitting streak for the giants, who continue their three-game series against the visiting cincinnati reds on tuesday.

mccutchen doubled twice to reach 1,500 career hits and scored two runs in monday's 10-7 victory as the giants collected 14 hits and snapped the reds' six-game winning streak. san francisco has won two in a row following a six-game losing streak but will be without second baseman alen hanson for at least the next 10 days after the versatile 25-year-old was placed on the disabled list with a left hamstring strain. cincinnati received a scare monday when first baseman joey votto exited in the fourth inning with a lower back tightness, but the five-time all-star said after the game that he expects to be in the lineup tuesday. reds second baseman scooter gennett was named national league player of the week after hitting .591 with four home runs and 10 rbi in five games but finished 0-for-5 in monday's loss.
tv: 10:15 p.m. et, fs ohio (cincinnati), nbcs bay area (san francisco)
pitching matchup: reds rh tyler mahle (3-4, 3.86 era) vs. giants lh ty blach (3-3, 4.20)

mahle turned in another impressive outing last thursday against the los angeles dodgers, allowing one unearned run on three hits over five innings. "it was some kind of impressive performance," interim reds manager jim riggleman told reporters. "he really was electric with his stuff and he got better as the night went on." the 23-year-old struck out four in the victory and has a 44-to-15 strikeout-to-walk ratio through his first eight starts across 44 1/3 innings.
blach saw his two-game winning streak come to a sudden halt last thursday, when he gave up five runs over 4 1/3 innings in a 6-3 loss to philadelphia. the 27-year-old native of colorado has allowed a total of three home runs in nine starts over 49 1/3 innings but has only recorded 25 strikeouts. billy hamilton has five hits in six at-bats against blach, who is 0-1 with a 9.00 era in two career starts against cincinnati.
walk-offs

1. san francisco recalled inf/of austin slater from triple-a sacramento to take hanson's roster spot.

2. the reds are 11-13 under riggleman after opening the season with a 3-15 mark.

3. giants lhp madison bumgarner (finger) threw a successful 20-pitch bullpen session monday and could rejoin the team in late may or early june.

NBA Eastern Conference final Game 2 betting preview and odds: Cavaliers at Celtics

Cleveland Cavaliers at Boston Celtics (-1, 203)

Celtics leads series 1-0.

Marcus Morris and his Boston teammates got the best of LeBron James in the opener of the Eastern Conference finals. The second-seeded Celtics look to stymie the Cleveland star for the second consecutive contest when they host the fourth-seeded Cavaliers on Tuesday in Game 2 of the best-of-seven series.

Morris helped hold James to 15 points on 5-of-16 shooting as Boston roared to a 26-point halftime advantage en route to a 108-83 torching of Cleveland in Sunday's series opener. Morris moved into the starting lineup and had 21 points and 10 rebounds after boasting prior to the opener that he is one of the best in the NBA at defending James. "It's a team effort, man, it's not just me," Morris told reporters after the easy victory. "Everybody played their part in guarding him. He's obviously the best player in the game, and you need multiple guys and a team to guard him an entire game. I just think we did a great job of that." Cavaliers veteran swingman Kyle Korver summed up the performance this way: "Bad game, bad first game. There's lot of things we can do better in the next one."

TV: 8:30 p.m. ET, ESPN

SERIES PRICE (PER WESTGATE LV SUPERBOOK):



LINE HISTORY: The Cavaliers opened as 1-point road favorites for Game 2 at a few Vegas books but that number didn't last long as the pointspread quickly jumped the fence to Celtics -1. The total hit betting boards at 202.5 and has been bumped up to 203.

INJURY REPORT:

Cavaliers - No injuries to report.

Celtics - PG S. Larkin (Out, Shoulder), PG K. Irving (Out For Season, Knee), PF D. Theis (Out For Season, Knee), SF G. Hayward (Out For Season, Ankle).

MATCHUP CHART:



ABOUT THE CAVALIERS (58-36 SU, 36-57-1 ATS, 44-48-2 O/U): James also committed seven turnovers during his porous performance but he said he wasn't worried about his team trailing in the series. "I have zero level of concern at this stage," James told reporters. "I didn't go to college, so it's not March Madness. You know, you get better throughout the series. You see ways you can get better throughout the series. But I've been down 0-1, I've been down 0-2, I've been down before in the postseason. But for me, there's never no level of concern, no matter how bad I played tonight with seven turnovers, how inefficient I was shooting the ball." James had plenty of company in the subpar shooting category as Cleveland shot 36 percent from the field, including a woeful 4-of-26 from 3-point range.

ABOUT THE CELTICS (64-31 SU, 60-33-2 ATS, 51-43-1 O/U): Morris was one of three Boston players to reach the 20-point mark in the opener as shooting guard Jaylen Brown recorded 23 points and eight rebounds and center Al Horford had 20 points on 8-of-10 shooting. But the decision to elevate Morris into the starting power forward spot was the big difference-maker as a player who was just 18-of-59 shooting in the five-game series against Philadelphia made 7-of-12 shots and effectively hounded James. "He was able to really force the issue in the offensive end and make LeBron exert so much energy because then he has to come down and really guard him," backup point guard Marcus Smart told reporters. "Can't take plays off against really good players."

TRENDS:

* Cavaliers are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 vs. NBA Atlantic.
* Celtics are 14-2 ATS in their last 16 home games.
* Over is 5-2 in Cavaliers' last 7 overall.
* Over is 10-2 in Celtics' last 12 home games.
* Road team is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings.

CONSENSUS:

There are 57 percent of pointspread bets on the home favorite Celtics while 70 percent of total bets are siding with the Over.
