ARIZONA @ CHI. CUBS | 07/23 | 2:20 PM EDT
CHI. CUBS -135
ANALYSIS: The Cubs will have Kris Bryant back in the lineup -- barring a trade (Nelson Cruz deal burned me Thursday night) -- and closer Craig Kimbrel should be available after he wouldn't have been yesterday. This is Chicago's first home game since the break and the Cubs are simply a different club at Wrigley. Starting pitcher Zach Davies has a 2.78 ERA in day games this year. I don't take much stock in day of the week trends, but Arizona is a laughable 2-14 in its past 16 Friday games and just horrid on the road. The Snakes are without leading hitter and OBP guy Josh Rojas as well. He's tied for the team lead with a WAR of 2.1. I tend to agree with Justin Perri on the Over and that's a great stat he provided.

DETROIT @ KANSAS CITY | 07/23 | 8:10 PM EDT
KANSAS CITY -115
ANALYSIS: A few other experts are on the Tigers for this one, and I get it with how well they are playing on a seven-game winning streak. Thing is, all those wins were at home. Detroit isn't Colorado or Arizona bad on the road, but well under .500 and swept four at Minnesota right before the break. The Tigers also had to play Thursday and used their All-Star reliever, Gregory Soto, for a third straight game. Thus, he's clearly not available. Kansas City was off Thursday, so a full bullpen, and swept two at Milwaukee to open the week. Kris Bubic (2-4, 5.03) has been much better at home (3.34 ERA) and has a 1.80 ERA this year in 10 innings vs. Detroit. KC is 6-0 in its past six after an off day.
