Why TheseĀ Picks?
ā
Clemson v LSU:Ā Iāve gotta roll with a low-scoring affair here, friends. Two solid defenses should make points hard to come by in this matchup; I wouldnāt be surprised if this game total doesnāt make it to 40.5. To boot, both teams have new QBs that will be finding their stride against said solid defenses. Iām whole-heartedly on the Under to cash, and Iāll take Clemson to keep things close.
ā
TOR Blue Jays v KC Royals: With Kansas City starter Seth Lugo having allowed 15 runs over just his last 3 starts, itās incredibly tough to build a case for a low-scoring game. Add to that the unpredictability of Toronto starter Max Scherzerās arm? This encounter sees at least 10 runs in my mind. And, unpredictable as Scherzer has been this season, heās been pitching better than Lugo has lately. Iām on the Over to hit, and Iāll take the Jays to win.
ā
Athletics v SEA Mariners: How the book came to a line of 7.5 with Jeffrey Springs on the mound for the As, Iāll never know. The Over has cashed in all 5 of Springsā last 5 starts. In addition, George Kirby has allowed a staggering 12 runs over his last 3 outings, and 4 of his last 5 trips to the mound have resulted in a Mariners loss. I admit, Kirby is far better at home than he is on the road, but 7.5 is still too low in my opinion. Iām tossing a chunk of change on the Over to hit here.
