BONES BEST BET
Sunday MLB recap: 6-3, +7.44
BREWERS ML -116 *4* BEST BET (8:10 PM ET)
As we said yesterday, we are riding this wave until it’s time to get off. Garza vs Lynn is a great pitching up for us here tonight. Garza has 2 starts on the season, has pitched 14 innings, owns a WHIP of 0.93 and an ERA of 2.57. Lynn on the other hand is rocking a 1.55 WHIP and terrible 6.55 ERA. Brewers get to him early and often here tonight!
RAYS ML -112 *1* (7:05 PM ET)
Small play on the Rays here – much prefer Archer to Chen. Both teams are coming off lopsided defeats but the Rays have been much more consistent this year in their complete game. The Orioles bats haven’t been working, and their fielding has been surprisingly suspect.
RANGERS ML -136 *2* (8:05 PM ET)
The Mariners started the season on a tear but have lost four of their last six games, including two of three from the Athletics. Seattle has scored one or less runs in three of their last four games. The Rangers lineup needs to get going also and we believe it will today as it faces rookie pitcher Elias who won’t over power anyone with only 5k’s in 10 innings of work. Rangers counter with Ross who has allowed just two runs in 10.1 innings and has 11 strikeouts. There probably won’t be a tonne of scoring but we like the home side here tonight.
ATHLETICS ML -114 *2* (10:05 PM ET)
Back again with the A’s as they have been playing great ball and sit at 8-4 on the season, winning 6 of their last 7. Plugged in starter Jesse Chavez gets the nod and he has impressed thus far posting a 1.38 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in two starts. Over 13 innings this season Chavez has struck out 13 batters and walked only two. The Angels counter with Hector Santiago, who is 0-2 this season with an ERA of 7.71. Josh Hamilton is out and we lean heavily on this pitching matchup here today.
BRAVES ML -125 *2* (7:05 PM ET)
Santana has just one start so far this season but it was a gem. 8 innings, 3 hits, 0 walks, and 0 earned. He’s going to have a tremendous year pitching in the NL East on a 1 year contract and we plan to take advantage.
NATIONALS @ MARLINS O7.5 -111 *2* (7:10 PM ET)
Zimmerman faced this Marlins team in his last start on April 9th, he went 1.2 innings, allowed 7 hits, 2 walks and 7 runs. We don’t expect these numbers today but the Marlins will score. Nationals are averaging 5 runs per game, Marlins not far behind at 4.62 rpg.
REDS ML -120 *2* (7:10 PM ET)
Homer Bailey is off the a slow start on the year but he owns the Pirates. Russell Martin is the only current Pirate with a career average over .300 against Bailey. And they only have 2 players with a career average over .250. Votto has 54 at bats against Wandy over his career where he’s posting a .354 average. The Pirates are coming off a sweep at the hands of the Brewers this weekend and it doesn’t get any easier for them here going into Cincy.
