Why These Picks?
MIN Twins v Athletics: The Over has cashed easily in Jeffrey Springs’ (6.02 ERA) last 3 straight starts, friends – one of which included a game against Minnesota (final score 11-8). Between Springs and the Athletics bullpen, this game should find itself well beyond 11 runs. On the other side, Twins starter Zebby Matthews (5.12 ERA) is sporting a healthy 7.13 ERA away from home. I’m on the Over to cash today.
CIN Reds v SF Giants: Chase Burns (2.51 ERA) is undoubtedly Cincinnati’s resident Ace, and starter Carson Whisenhunt (7.03 ERA) has been pretty rough for most of this season. Whisenhunt has allowed 21 runs over his last 5 outings, while Burns is an impressive 14-2 having allowed just 9 runs over his last 5 games – backing the Giants in this spot makes no sense. I’m on the Reds to win by at least 2 runs.
