Yankees vs. Orioles Orioles
-119 at 5DIMES in 5h

Jack's Free Pick Friday: Baltimore Orioles -119

The Baltimore Orioles come into this series with the New York Yankees red hot at the plate. They have scored a combined 25 runs the past two days in back-to-back wins over the Red Sox. Not to mention, they have the edge on the mound tonight.

Chris Tillman is having one of the best seasons of his career, going 7-1 with a 2.92 ERA and 1.129 WHIP in 11 starts. Tillman is 5-0 with a 2.04 ERA and 1.160 WHIP in seven home starts, and the Orioles are 7-0 in those games. He has gone 2-0 with a 2.19 ERA in his last two starts against the Yankees, yielding only 3 earned runs in 12 1/3 innings.

Nathan Eovaldi has been decent for the Yankees this season at 6-2 with a 3.71 ERA over 10 starts. But Eovaldi hasn't really enjoyed much success against the Orioles, sporting a 3.86 ERA and 1.652 WHIP in three career starts against them, all of which came last season. He never once made it through 6 innings in any of those three starts.

The Yankees are 1-8 in their last nine road games vs. a team with a winning record. The Orioles are 38-18 in Tillman's last 56 home starts. Baltimore is 78-35 in its last 113 home games vs. a right-handed starter. The Orioles are 49-19 in their last 68 home games vs. a team with a losing record. Bet the Orioles Friday.

Royals vs. Indians Indians
-165 at 5DIMES in 5h

10* MLB FREE PICK (Indians -165)

Cleveland is worth a look at home on Friday against the Royals. The Indians will have a huge edge on the mound in this one, as they send out Danny Salazar against Edinson Volquez. Salazar has been dominant at home this season, going 3-1 with a 1.61 ERA and 0.893 WHIP in 4 starts. Volquez has been the exact opposite on the road, as he has a 6.95 ERA and 1.909 WHIP in 4 road starts. Volquez is also 2-5 with a 8.31 ERA and 2.106 WHIP in 8 career starts against the Indians. Give me Cleveland -165!

Mariners vs. Rangers Rangers
-140 at BMAKER in 6h

974 Texas Rangers -140
Yu Darvish is back from Tommy John surgery. In his first start on Saturday he went five innings against Pittsburgh and yielded just one run on three hits and a walk. Darvish struck out seven Pittsburgh batters and looked like the same guy we've seen dominate the league the last three seasons. Today's price on Darvish is too good to pass up. Bonus Play Texas Rangers -140

Mariners vs. Rangers Rangers
-126 at PINNACLE in 6h

Free Pick on Rangers -

Texas is showing some great value here at home against the Mariners. Texas will send out Yu Darvish for his second start of the season. Darvish allowed just 1 run on 3 hits in 5 innings and most impressively only walked one hitter. I look for Darvish to come out just as strong here and cool off the hot bats of the Mariners.

Texas also has an advantage here playing on a day of rest, while Seattle just played in a slugfest last night in San Diego, where they overcame a 10-run deficit to beat the Padres 16-13. Look for the Mariners to come out a bit flat here in this one.

Rangers are 5-1 in their last 6 home games against a team with a winning record and 8-2 in Darvish's last 10 starts when their opponent is coming in off a game where they scored 5 or more runs. Take Texas!

White Sox vs. Tigers White Sox
+125 at BOVADA in 5h

Ryan has a solid WNBA and strong MLB pick today, as this free pick will show you how he is 10-5 in the MLB since May 28!

10* graded play on Chicago White Sox as they take on Detroit in AL Central action set to start at 7:10 PM ET. SIM algorithm shows a high probability that CWS will win this game.

Technical Discussion Points Supporting this graded play is a proven system posting a 27-13 over the last 5 seasons good for 68% winners and made 23 units/unit wagered. Play on all underdogs with a money line of +100 or higher (CHI WHITE SOX) poor AL hitting team (AVG under .260) against a team with a below average bullpen (ERA over 4.50), ice cold hitting team - batting .225 or worse over their last 15 games. The following game situations match the SIM projections and my compiled research for the outcome of this game. CWS are 22-8 (+16.3 Units) against the money line after a game where the bullpen gave up no runs this season and are 17-9 (+10.1 Units) against the money line vs. poor baserunning teams - averaging 0.5 or less SB's/game this season. Detroit is 9-18 (-12.3 Units) against the money line in home games vs. excellent fielding teams - averaging less than 0.5 errors/game over the last 3 seasons.

Giants vs. Cardinals Cardinals
+115 at PINNACLE in 6h

This is a 1* Free Pick on the Saint Louis Cardinals

The Giants have opened as a small road favorite with Johnny Cueto on the mound. Usually, I would agree with this line, but not tonight. One reason in particular is that Cueto has been battling some back discomfort and he is a pitcher that uses a lot of his back and core in his delivery with a full turn. Because of this, I have questions about Cueto’s overall effectiveness for this game.

Then there is also the fact that Cueto has lost his last three team starts at Busch Stadium and he has a career 5.59 ERA his last six starts there.. Cueto is facing Adam Wainwright who has been gaining momentum as of late and the Cardinals have won his last seven decisions. Wainwright’s advanced number’s also indicate that he is not as bad as his 5.71 ERA indicates, but the oddsmaker has to list him as a short homedog here because of the high ERA. His advanced numbers pitching at home indicate signs of progression, especially at home with a 2.50 FIP on the season. One key stat that has improved for Wainwright is holding runners on base. Two of his last three starts, he has left stranded all of the runners on base. The other start in between was against the Cubs when he left stranded 72.7% which is also quality. In six of his first eight starts this season, he left only 70% or below of baserunners stranded.

Cueto and Wainwright have faced each other twice lifetime. The result is the Cardinals winning both of those games.

The Giants are already without Angel Pagan and now without Hunter Pence in the outfield. Pence was hitting .298 on the season and leading the team in RBI’s. Pence had a team high 21 RBI’s on the road this season. Last year, the Giants went 12-18 when Pence was out of the lineup.

While the Giants have been winning, one of their weaknesses is the bullpen who is ranked 27th in the Majors using my rankings and has two blown saves within the last week.

The Cardinals have won 80% of Wainwright’s last 30 starts pitching on 5 days of rest. Wainwright hasn’t been listed as a home underdog since the 2009 season when he beat Justin Verlander of the Tigers, 11-2. Look for the Cardinals to pick up the win tonight coming back home as they have won 78% of their last 27 home games following a road trip of 7 or more days. (1* Saint Louis Cardinals)

Mariners vs. Rangers Rangers
-140 at BMAKER in 6h

Rating: 2 Unit MLB Free Pick

Yu Darvish passed the test in his first start since returning from Tommy John surgery and strives to follow up with another solid outing as the Texas Rangers open a three-game series against the visiting Seattle Mariners today. Darvish allowed one run in five innings in his season debut while beating the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday when he tossed 81 pitches. Seattle starter Walker has lost five consecutive decisions and has pitched five or fewer innings in four of them. He was roughed up by Minnesota in his last turn when he served up three homers while allowing five runs and six hits in 4 1/3 innings.

A's vs. Astros A's
+136 at 5DIMES in 6h

Dave's Friday Bonus Play:

1* on Oakland A's +136

The Key: I'm going to take a shot with the Oakland A's as big road underdogs to the Houston Astros today. I believe they have the edge on the mound in this one, plus they are playing great baseball coming in. The A's are 5-0 in their last five games overall and have scored a combined 31 runs in the process. Jesse Hahn has pitched well with a 4.15 ERA through 5 starts this year. But what really stands out is that Hahn sports a 2.13 ERA and 0.947 WHIP in 2 lifetime starts vs. Houston. He pitched 6 2/3 shutout innings in his lone start against the Astros in 2016 on April 30. Houston is a woeful 6-11 (-9.5 Units) against the money line as a home favorite of -125 to -175 this season. The A's are 8-3 in Hahn's last 11 starts. Take Oakland.
