L.A. ANGELS @ DETROIT | 08/17 | 7:10 PM EDT
DETROIT -121
ANALYSIS: Could be history tonight as Detroit's Miguel Cabrera is one homer shy of 500 career. The Tigers were off Monday and are 7-1 in their past eight following an off day, but this is more about fading the Angels, who are playing in their third city in three nights (Anaheim, New York, Detroit), and their pitcher, Dylan Bundy. He is 2-9 with 6.21 ERA in 17 starts this year and 1-6 with a 7.48 ERA in night games. I expect this ML to rise a bit during the day.

CLEVELAND @ MINNESOTA | 08/17 | 8:10 PM EDT
MINNESOTA -145
ANALYSIS: Minnesota is showing signs of life in winning five of six and Cleveland used its two best setup men in Monday's loss so they may not be available here. The Tribe also are resting a big bat in DH Franmil Reyes (20 HR, 54 RBIs, .839 OPS). The Twins also appear to have the pitching edge with Bailey Ober (1-1, 4.53) over Eli Morgan (1-5, 6.52). Cleveland has lost five straight as a road dog.

SAN DIEGO @ COLORADO | 08/17 | 8:40 PM EDT
COLORADO +1.5
ANALYSIS: This just shifted to the Padres being slight favorites on the moneyline, which I frankly don't understand, so like I usually do will take the Rockies at +1.5 on the runline in their own park. It has been easy money almost all season. Colorado has won eight of German Marquez's past nine starts at home with him posting a 1.83 ERA over that span. He's 2-0 with a 1.38 ERA this year in two outings vs. the Friars, and those were both in San Diego.

L.A. ANGELS @ DETROIT | 08/17 | 7:10 PM EDT
DETROIT -135
ANALYSIS: The Angels are 3-7 in their last 10 games, and as Severance pointed out, the Angels are playing in their third city in three nights. The Tigers are 33-27 at home this season and Casey Mize has pitched solid and will give a good four or five runs. The Angels bullpen is miserable and I think the Tigers should win this game at home. Miggy is in the lineup and could provide a big boost with his 500th home run against a home run prone pitcher. Take the Tigers.

SAN DIEGO @ COLORADO | 08/17 | 8:40 PM EDT
COLORADO -105
ANALYSIS: The Rockies are 39-21 this season at home and the Padres are 2-8 in their last 10 road games. German Marquez has dominated the Padres this season and he has dominated at home going 7-2 with a 3.05 ERA. Matthew Strahm is expected to open and he has allowed runs in each of his last three appearances. The Padres are 27-30 on the road and their taxed bullpen will need to work 7 innings again tonight. Take the Rockies at home.

MILWAUKEE @ ST. LOUIS | 08/17 | 7:45 PM EDT
ST. LOUIS +143
ANALYSIS: The Cardinals have now won six straight games and they are 8-2 in their last 10. The Cardinals are much better at home at 32-25. Adam Wainwright and Corbin Burnes have both been very good this season and very good against each other’s team. These teams are 3-3 against each other this season and tend to play close games. The Cardinals bullpen has been solid lately and I think this game should be much closer to 50-50 so we’ll take the Cards as the home dogs.

Betting Line Provider: Pinnacle
Play Rating: 1%
Play: 1H Cincinnati Reds Total Over 2.5 (-118) K Hendricks (RHP), V Gutierrez (RHP) Must Start
The Reds are one of the hottest hitting teams in baseball and kill RHP. They also crush Hendricks in his career and in this spot should not have trouble clearing 2.5 runs in the first 5 innings.

Rotation #908
Rockies -110 over Padres
Marquez/Strahm
The Rockies have been hitting ball well this month, hit the ball great at home and crush left handed pitching. The Padres will start Matt Strahm who just doesn’t have that many innings pitched this year and I expect them to get into their bullpen quite early tonight. The total is set at 12 runs so Vegas thinks this should be high scoring. I favor the team that was built for high scoring games in this park. Take the Rockies.
