Play on: UNDER 9½ -117

Marlins (Alcantara) vs. Baltimore (Watkins)
Two skilled starters. The low-offense Marlins. The struggling Orioles. Decent relievers on both teams of late. A relatively high total. Sounds like a recipe for a low scoring affair.

Play on: Orioles +127 at linepros

FREE PICK - Baltimore Orioles +127
RATING: 30*
ROT#: 972
The Orioles are not a team the public likes to back and I think we are getting some big time value because of it. Baltimore is playing well. They have won 3 straight and 6 of their last 8. They have put up 5 or more runs in all 6 wins during this stretch.
With extremely hot temperatures and a struggling Sandy Alcantara (4.15 ERA and 1.846 WHIP in his last 3 starts), you have to like the Orioles' offense to stay hot Tuesday night.
The other big thing here is who Baltimore has on the mound. Spenser Watkins has really impressed in his first look at the big league level. He's made 3 starts and has a sensational 1.76 ERA and 1.239 WHIP. It wasn't a cake walk either. Those 3 starts came against the Rays, White Sox and Blue Jays, who have 3 of the 4 best records in the AL right now. Give me the Orioles +127

Dave's Tuesday Free Play:
1* on Arizona Diamondbacks +133
The Key: The Texas Rangers have no business being favored over the Arizona Diamondbacks tonight. The Rangers are 0-12 in their last 12 games overall and have been outscored 80-20 during this skid. The Arizona Diamondbacks come in playing some of their best ball of the season in going 5-2 in their last 7 games. Tayler Widener is 1-0 with a 3.55 ERA in 7 starts this year for the Diamondbacks. Dane Dunning is 3-7 with a 4.30 ERA in 18 starts this year for the Rangers. Dunning has pitched 5 or fewer innings in 9 straight starts and in 15 of his 18 starts this year. Take Arizona.

Play on: Rangers -132 at linepros

My free play is on the Tex Rangers at 8:05 ET.
The Texas Rangers are currently on a 12-game losing streak, just three games away from matching the worst in franchise history (a 15-game losing streak back in 1972). However, the Rangers have some competition for "worst team in the AL," as the Baltimore Orioles sit 34-64. Texas has been outscored 80-20 during the streak and has been blanked three times and scored just one run in four other games. Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Houston Astros marked the end to an 0-10 road trip. Texas opens a nine-game homestand Tuesday night when it welcomes the Arizona Diamondback to Globe Life Field for the first contest of a brief two-game IL series. Unlike Texas, Arizona has NO competition as the NL's worst team, as the 31-70 D'backs are EIGHT games behind the 38-61 Pittsburgh Pirates, who own the NL's second-worst record. In fact, Arizona owns an unwanted MLB 'triple crown' as the D'backs not only own MLB's worst overall record but they also own MLB's worst money line mark at minus-$3,252 (over $1,000 more than any other team) plus own MLB's worst run-differential at minus-150 runs.
The starting pitchers for Tuesday will be Arizona's Taylor Widener (1-0, 3.55 ERA) and for Texas it will be Dane Dunning (3-7, 4.30 ERA). Widener made 12 appearances in 2020 (all in relief), going 0-1 with a 4.50 ERA and 1.30 WHIP in just 20 innings. He's still considered a rookie in 2021, as he takes the mound for his eighth start. Widener has been back-and-forth between the majors and minors this season and also spent some time on the 10-day injured list, after sustaining a right groin strain against the Colorado Rockies back on May 23. He picked up his lone win in his 2021 season debut (way back on April 4 in a 3-1 win at San Diego in which he pitched six scoreless innings) but enters on a streak of six consecutive no-decisions (Arizona is 3-3). Dane Dunning (3-7, 4.30 ERA) pitched just 34 innings in 2020, although unlike Widener, made seven starts (2-0 with a 3.97 ERA). This marks his 19th start of 2021 for Texas (team is just 5-13 in his starts) but only his second since July 6. It should be noted that after the Rangers went 2-12 in his first 14 starts, the team had won his last three, with Dunning posting a 1.93 ERA. However, on June 20, he allowed three ERs over 4.2 innings in a 4-1 loss at Detroit.
Ain't it about time for Texas to break through with a win? The Diamondbacks have had a DREADFUL 2021. They have suffered a franchise-high 17-game losing streak and another stretch of 13 consecutive defeats during a season in which they got off to a 15-13 start, before losing 50 of their next 58 games. Arizona set a major league record with 24 consecutive road losses from May 4 through June 25 and comes to Texas 12-40 in road games on the season. C'mon Rangers! If not here, when?
Good luck...Larry

MLB | CWS vs KC
Play on: OVER 9½ -112

While I won with the 'under' in yesterday's game, I'm expecting to see some more offense this evening. Yesterday, I said this of the KC starter: "Minor was sharp last time out, as he allowed just one earned run through six complete. Last time that he faced the White Sox, he allowed only two hits and one run, through seven complete." I also said this about the Chicago starter: "Keuchel had a bad start on 7/3, which had an effect on his recent numbers. However, he's since allowed just three runs in his next two starts combined. In fact, he's allowed three or fewer runs in seven of his past nine starts, four in one of the others. He's allowed two or fewer earned runs in five of his past seven. It should also be mentioned that Keuchel's last four starts against KC have all fallen below the number." Things set up differently today. KC starter Keller has an ugly 7.19 ERA, in nine home starts, to go along with a 1.645 WHIP. Meanwhile, Chicago starter Cease has a 6.28 ERA (1.479 WHIP) in 10 road starts. Not surprisingly, the 'over' is 7-2-1 in those games. I see this one reaching double digits.

Play on: White Sox -141 at linepros

1* MLB - White Sox/Royals FREE PICK on White Sox -141
Tuesday's Free MLB Pick is on the Chicago White Sox as a -141 road favorite against the Kansas City Royals. Dylan Cease will get the ball for Chicago and he's got a 3.13 ERA and 1.295 WHIP in 6 career starts vs the Royals. He's made 2 starts against them this year and allowed just 1 run on 7 hits in 10 innings. Brad Keller has faced the White Sox 3 times in 2021, giving up 9 runs on 16 hits and 7 walks in 14 1/3 innings. Keller also has an ugly 7.19 ERA and 1.645 WHIP in 9 home starts this season. Bet the White Sox -141!

The Chicago White Sox have lost four of their last five and will be looking to rebound against the Kansas City Royals tonight. The White Sox go with Dylan Cease, who is 7-6 with a 4.21 ERA in 20 starts this season. Cease has posted a 0.87 ERA in his two starts against the Royals in 2021. Kansas City goes with Brad Keller, who is 7-9 with a 5.84 ERA in 20 starts. The White Sox are 46-17 in their last 63 games as favorites. The Royals are 38-84 in their last 122 home games against a team with a winning record. The White Sox are 15-5 in the last 20 meetings. Chicago is 10-1 in the last 11 meetings in Kansas City. Give me the White Sox.
