Play on: Rangers +109 at pinnacle

PICK - Texas Rangers +109
RATING: 30*
ROT#: 922
I was leaning on Texas when they opened as a small favorite. Now I got no choice but to play them as a dog. The Rangers are not a good team, but they snapped a 6-game losing streak with a 7-1 win in yesterday's series opener against the Angels. A game they went off at +115.
I just don't know how you can have any faith in LA on the road with Julio Teheran on the mound. Teheran has simply not been good in 2020. He's got a 7.94 ERA in 6 appearances (5 starts). Nothing fluky about it, as he owns a 7.49 FIP. He's only got a 12.8 K% and is giving up 2.8 HR/9.
Texas will counter with Kyle Cody, who has not allowed a run in 4 appearances (1 start). He's clearly not as good as a 0.00 ERA, but he does have a very strong 3.03 FIP. I also really like the fact that he's taking on the Angels coming off that miserable offensive showing on Tuesday.
Angels are just 15-33 last 2 seasons after a game where they scored 2 or fewer and 0-7 this season when listed as a road favorite of -150 or less. Give me the Rangers +109

Play on: Angels -115 at 5Dimes

921 Los Angeles Angels at Texas
Not a big proponent of either pitching staff here. Teheran has a 39 average game score in his last seven starts. Cody will be part of a bullpen game for the Rangers. But we simply cannot ignore the season stats of these two teams vs right-handed pitching. LA has a 118 wRC+ and Texas is last in baseball with a 63. League average wRC+ is 100. So the Angels offense has a huge 55% advantage in this matchup. Granted, with it being a bullpen game for the Rangers we don't know how many pitchers will be of the right-handed variety, but the advantage is still substatial.

MLB | Reds vs Cubs
Play on: Reds +143 at 5Dimes

Dave’s Wednesday Free Play:
1* on Cincinnati Reds +143
The Key: I like the price we are getting on the Cincinnati Reds today with a starter the caliber of Trevor Bauer taking the ball. Bauer is 3-3 with a 2.05 ERA and 0.86 WHIP in 7 starts this year with 61 strikeouts in 44 innings. Bauer is also 3-1 with a 1.71 ERA and 0.80 WHIP in his 4 road starts this year. Not to mention, he’s 4-3 with a 2.27 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 7 lifetime starts against the Cubs. Bauer has yielded only 5 earned runs in 25 innings in his last 4 starts against the Cubs, while Yu Darvish has yielded 8 earned runs in 19 innings in his last 3 starts against the Reds. Take Cincinnati.

NBA | Clippers vs Nuggets
Play on: Clippers -7½ -110 at Bovada

Take the Los Angeles Clippers minus the points versus the Denver Nuggets. Los Angeles (55-26) took a 2-1 lead in this series on Monday with their 113-107 win over the Nuggets as an 8.5-point favorite. Look for the Clippers to keep it up as they have covered the point spread in 20 of their last 26 games after a point spread loss. The depth of this team should help as they have covered the point spread in 7 of their last 11 games on the road when playing their fourth game in seven days. It may look easy to take this feisty Denver team (51-32) getting 8 or so points — but Doc Rivers’ team has covered the point spread in 43 of their last 82 games when laying 3.5 to 9.5 points. The Nuggets have failed to cover the point spread in 30 of their last 47 games on the road after a point spread win. And while they have covered the point spread in the last two games in this series, Denver has then failed to cover the point spread in 11 of their last 14 games after covering the point spread in their last two games. Lay the points with the LA Clippers. Best of luck — Frank.

MLB | Mariners vs Giants
Play on: Mariners +134 at YouWager

My free play is on the Sea Mariners at 9:45 ET.The San Francisco Giants fell behind the Seattle Mariners 5-1 but rallied for a 6-5 win, snapping Seattle's six-game winning streak. it was San Francisco's FOURTH straight win and helped boost the Giants (22-21) above .500 for the first time since they were 5-4 on Aug 1. The Giants finished last season 77-85 (29 games back of LA in the NL West) but believe it or not, currently hold down the NL's final wild card spot (8th-seed). As noted, Seattle had won SIX in a row but at 19-23, I'm not sure anyone thinks of Seattle as a 2020 playoff contender.
The teams wrap up this quick two-game IL series tonight at Oracle Park, with Seattle sending Nick Margevicius (1-2, 3.86 ERA) to the mound, while San Francisco counters with Tyler Anderson (1-3, 5.18 ERA). Margevicius hasn't pitched since Aug 28 He's made seven appearances (four starts) but while his ERA (3/86) and WHIP (1.13) are respectable, Seattle is 1-3 in his four starts. He went 1-1 with a 1.64 ERA in two starts against the Giants last season (rookie year) when he was pitching for the San Diego Padres.
Anderson began his career with the Rockies in 2016 and over his first two seasons, went 11-12 with a 4.09 ERA over 34 starts. He made 32 starts in 2018, going 7-9 with a 4.55 ERA. He began the 2019 season in the Rockies rotation but was quickly placed on the DL due to knee inflammation. He came off the DL a week later and made five starts before being demoted to AAA. He underwent major season-ending surgery to correct a chondral defect on June 11 of 2019 in his left knee, which was expected to require a lengthy recovery time. He made just five starts in all of 2019, going 0-3 with an 11.76 ERA. Anderson was claimed off waivers by the San Francisco Giants on Dec 2.
Anderson has made three consecutive starts against Arizona, throwing a three-hitter in the first one (first complete game of his career), before losing the next two (allowed 11 ERs in just 8.2 innings for an 11.42 ERA). Before pitching his first career complete game on Aug 22 vs Arizona, Anderson had gone just 1-14 in his previous 20 starts (teams were 4-16). Adding in his CG win and the following two losses to Arizona, he's just 2-16 in his last 23 starts (Giants are 5-18). He is 0-1 with a 6.55 ERA in two career starts against Seattle (Giants are 1-1). Anyone really want Anderson as a favorite?
Good luck...Larry

MLB | SEA vs SFO
Play on: UNDER 9 -105

Wednesday MLB Free play. My selection is on the 'under' between Seattle and San Francisco at 9:45 pm et on Wednesday.
It seems as though Mariners starter Nick Margevicius may have figured things out a little bit in his second big league campaign. After posting a 6.79 ERA and 1.61 WHIP in 17 appearances with the Padres last season he has recorded a 3.86 ERA and 1.13 WHIP this year. His strikeouts per nine innings are up considerably while his walks are way down. He's also allowing fewer hits and home runs. Giants starter Tyler Anderson hasn't been so fortunate as he has posted an ERA north of five and a 1.45 WHIP. With that being said, he'll be facing a Mariners club that entered last night ranked T21 in the majors in runs per game and 22nd in team batting average. On a positive note, Anderson's walks per nine innings have dropped from 4.8 last year to 3.6 this season while his home runs per nine innings allowed have gone from 3.5 to 1.1. Take the under (8*).
