Throughout the Boston Red Sox and Seattle Mariners series, the price points offered on the moneyline for Boston have not been indicative of a team that was fourteen games below .500. The Red Sox have won the first two games in the series, and will try and complete their third road sweep of the year. Back Boston, as they continue to find a way to outlast the Mariners.
Daylen Lile has not had a hit in the Nationals current series against the Tampa Bay Rays. In fact he is 0 for his last 13 at the plate. Nick Martinez after strong success the first two months of the season, we have seen a down trend over his last five outings. Look for Lile to end his slump with a two hit game, and clearing all his main props.

Paul Skenes will be on the mound tonight for the Pittsburgh Pirates at Colorado. Ironically, Colorado was the last win he has had, as the Pirates have lost each of his last six starts. In the original series last month, Skenes shut down the Rockies lineup to just two hits through eight innings. In the lead off spot that game was Edouard Julien who went 0 for 3 that night. Tonight he is batting further down the order, which hopefully will get us two at bats against the Pirates bullpen. As since that eight inning performance Skenes has not went more than six innings on the mound. Value prop on Julien’s total bases/hitting combination line.
Eli White has had a significant increase in playing time over the last week, with Atlanta dealing with players on the injured list. He actually had his best game of the season last Saturday with two doubles, and a home run. After going 0 for 3 yesterday with three strikeouts, I expect White to redeem himself. This is a circled regression spot for Kyle Harrison who is coming off cashing as a home underdog against Philadelphia, and has seen Milwaukee win his last ten starts. Play White over on his hitting combination line.
The Arizona Diamondbacks are home favorites tonight based on being nine games above .500 at home. They also have their team leaders red hot at the plate with Ketel Marte extending his hit streak to eight games last night. Corbin Caroll just in his last two games has hit a grand slam, and went 4 for 4 Friday night. Yet, I expect the Dbacks to extend Zac Gallen one inning to many off of yesterday’s extended bullpen usage with Michael Soroka exiting early. Tail the Twins.
A bat that has got back on track in the desert is Ketel Marte. He had a severe cold stretch for about ten games from late May through the first week of June. Now he has had a hit in seven straight games, with three doubles. He is one of the bats when hot you ride as he has shown to be one of the peak streak bats in MLB. We will do a split on a home run, and RBI for Ketel Marte.

Tatsuya Imai is coming off throwing just 38 pitches his last outing. He gave up five runs to the Kansas City Royals and did not make it out of the first inning. He certainly is a starter you have to live with giving up runs, and needing run support from the Astros. That has been the case in three out of his last four starts, Houston has scored nine runs or more. Back that angle tonight against the Guardians.
CJ Abrams has went a span of eight games without hitting a home run, which is his second longest stretch on the season. In his last game Wednesday against the Kansas City Royals, he did hit his first double of the month. His last series in Tropicana Field two years ago he did homer, and does have a double in three at bats against Griffin Jax. Split prop here for Abrams to homer and get an RBI.

Yesterday we saw the Kansas City Royals light up the scoreboard with fourteen total runs. John Rave had the night off, but is back in the lneup after his first action Wednesday against the Nationals. In his first start he went two for four with a home run and a triple. Look for a calmer game from Rave, but for him to clear his total bases/combination line against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Over the last thirty days the Kansas City Royals are tied with the Cubs and Rockies for fewest wins with nine total. It has even been a further prolonged slump when Noah Cameron is on the mound as the Royals have won just two out of his last twelve starts. Today though they will see Matthew Liberatore, who did not pitch in the original series in May. Since he came to the big leagues in 2022, his worst outing was against the Royals last season. In the start he gave up 8 hits and seven runs in just four innings of work. Back the Royals here.
The Yankees have dominated their current series against the White Sox, scoring double digit runs in both games. Winners of eight out of their last nine games, a bat that has stepped right in and contributed has been Jasson Dominguez. In all three games he has returned since Saturday, he has cleared his combination prop line. Take Dominguez to do so for a fourth straight game tonight against the White Sox.
A bat that I expect to be a key contributor in the Guardians-Brewers matchup is Jake Bauers. Craig Counsell has done a great job on Bauers usage, as he did not play Sunday or Monday. The veteran did spend his second and third seasons with the Guardians, and typically has big games against his old team. He had multiple hits in both games against the Guardians a year ago, and does have a double in two at bats against Gavin Williams. Take Bauers over on his combination line tonight.
