MLB | KC vs STL
Play on: OVER 8½ -110
Free Pick on Cardinals/Royals OVER
I'm recommending a play on the OVER in Monday's Interleague action that has the Cardinals hosting the Royals. St. Louis is swinging the bat well and could very well eclipse this total on their own. The Cardinals have scored 5+ in each of their last 3 games and have an impressive 55 hits over their last 5 games.
That red-hot offense will be up against the struggling Ian Kennedy of the Royals. Kennedy is a mere 1-4 with a 4.98 ERA and 1.511 WHIP in 9 starts. It's even worse on the road, as he's got a 7.80 ERA in 3 outings. Kennedy also hasn't had much luck when facing St Louis. He's got a 7.41 ERA and 1.569 WHIP in 9 career starts against them.
While Cardinals' starter Miles Mikolas has been sharp so far in 2018, I think the Royals will be able to score at least a few runs and potentially more if Mikolas fails to pitch deep into the game. OVER is 6-1 in the Royals last 7 interleague road games vs a right-handed starter and 13-4 in the Cardinals last 17 after a 5-game stretch where they had a team OBP of .375 or better. Take the OVER!

MLB | Orioles vs White Sox
Play on: Orioles -101 at pinnacle
Jack’s Free Pick Monday: Baltimore Orioles -101
The Baltimore Orioles have a big advantage on the mound today over the Chicago White Sox and they shouldn’t be underdogs because of it. We’ll take them at basically even money here as they take Game 1 of this new series.
Andrew Cashner has held his own this season despite pitching in the rugged AL East. He has been especially effective on the road, going 1-1 with a 3.78 ERA in three starts. Look for him to shut down this suspect Chicago lineup that is hitting just .241 and scoring 3.6 runs per game at home this season en route to a 6-16 record.
Hector Santiago has been crushed this season. Santiago is 0-1 with an 8.31 ERA and 1.923 WHIP in three starts. In his lone home start, he gave up 8 earned runs in 3 1/3 innings to the Twins on May 5th. He is lacking control as he has already walked 12 batters in 13 innings.
The White Sox are 7-19 in Santiago’s last 26 starts. Chicago is 10-28 in its last 38 games overall. The White Sox are 8-22 in their last 30 games vs. a right-handed starter. Chicago is 0-5 in Santiago’s last five starts vs. a team with a losing record. Bet the Orioles Monday.

Play on: Rangers +188 at betonline
Dave’s Monday Free Play:
1* on Texas Rangers +188 The Key: I like the price we are getting with the Texas Rangers today as nearly 2-to-1 home underdogs to the New York Yankees. They are certainly worth a shot in this price range. After all, you could argue that they have the edge on the mound. The ageless Bartolo Colon is 2-1 with a 2.93 ERA and 0.87 WHIP in 7 starts this season. Masahiro Tanaka is 4-2 with a 4.86 ERA in 8 starts for the Yankees. Tanaka has never beaten the Rangers, going 0-2 with a 6.38 ERA and 1.42 WHIP in 4 lifetime starts against them. Take Texas.
