Friday, May 28th
Cardinals vs. Cubs. The Cardinals will have just spent the last 4 days on the west coast in San Diego, when they send their ace Chris Carpenter to the hill to face off against Randy wells in an early 2:20 ET start. The Cubs big hitters in Byrd, Lee, Ramirez and Soriano have all combined to hit over .300 against Carpenter so far in their careers. The Cubs have been on a nice roll for almost 2 weeks now and look for it to continue tonight.
White Sox vs. Devil Rays. Tampa Bay is in its first funk of the season after getting swept by the Red Sox but should find the win column Friday night with David Price on the mound. The White Sox have struggled immensely only hitting .206 against lefties on the road so far this season. The Devil Rays should be able to generate runs against Garcia as they have crushed righties this year. Take a look at Devil Rays TT as well.
Saturday, May 29th.
Rangers vs. Twins. We lean to the over here as the Twins have been hitting lefties at a good rate so far this year, as have the Rangers with righties. Make sure the ump is not an under magnet as this has been a crucial angle to look at, in succesfully hitting totals in baseball over the years.
Royals vs. Red Sox. Greinke is only 1-5 this year and has barely been getting any run support whenever he is on the mound. We feel like this is a good spot to hit up the Red Sox -1.5 as it will present more value. Greinke is only 1-3 vs the Red Sox in his career despite posting solid numbers. Buchholz on the other hand has only allowed 3 runs in his last 3 starts, so we expect him to put up another solid performance.
Sunday, May 30th.
Mets. vs Brewers. Mets should be worth a look here at a very nice price. They are rolling right now and many of the Mets hitters like Bay, Reyes and Wright have very good numbers against Wolf. The Brewers are one of the worst home teams this year, so as long as Dickey can avoid giving up the long ball, the Mets should come out on top.
Nationals vs. Padres. These two have been under teams the entire year as they have gone over the total just 34 times in a combined 94 games. We expect nothing different today as both teams send their aces to the mound. Garland has posted an ERA of 0.84 at home, while Hernandez has posted a 2.08 ERA so far this season. The under is also 20-8-1 in the last 29 meetings.
