Thank you and good luck as always.

MLB | Brewers vs Pirates
Play on: Pirates +107 at BMaker
The set-up: Zack Davies has started to falter down the stretch of the first half for the Brewers and I think he’ll have his hands full in his final trip to the hill before the Mid-Summer Classic as well. The home side hands the ball to the resurgent Steven Brault.
The pitchers: Davies (7-2, 3.24 ERA) is 2-0 with a 2.95 ERA in three match-ups vs. the Pirates this year, but he’s just 4-5 with a 5.08 ERA in 12 career outings against them.
Brault (3-1, 4.29) is 2-0 with a 2.01 ERA over his last six starts since re-joining the rotation in May.
The pick: Milwaukee is a poor 11-14 (-4.6 units) vs. southpaws this season and the Brewers come in struggling mightily at the plate right now, having been shut out in back-to-back games (extending their scoreless streak to 23 innings.) I think Brault takes advantage. Consider the home side in this one.

MLB | COL vs ARI
Play on: UNDER 9 -120
The Rockies are batting .314 at home. The Braves have the next highest home batting average at .277, which is 37 points behind the Rockies. Take Colorado out of Coors Field, though, and the Rockies' offense isn't scary at all. It's far below average in fact. The Rockies rank 14th in the National League in road batting average at .225 and are 13th in the NL in road homers. Colorado is averaging 3.1 runs in its last six away games. The Rockies open a series today at Chase Field, which has become much more of a pitcher's park. They draw All-Star Zach Greinke, who is 9-3 with a 2.90 ERA. Greinke usually can be counted on to hold up his end. But what about Colorado starter Antonio Senzatela? His current form is good - 2-0 with a 2.50 ERA in his last three starts. He also has a 1.89 ERA in his last three road starts and is 1-0 with a 2.13 ERA in two starts versus Arizona this year. The Under has cashed in 79 percent of Senzatela's last 15 road starts. The Diamondbacks rank 12th among the 15 National League teams in home batting average and home runs. Arizona hasn't scored more than four runs in any of its last five games. Arizona also is likely to be without outfielder David Peralta. He's the Diamondbacks' third-leading hitter and is tied for third in team RBI's. Peralta is dealing with a sore right shoulder. Each team's closer has been shaky lately, but both teams were idle on Thursday. So the bullpens will be fresh.

This game features the 43-42 Cardinals at the 39-47 Giants. Cardinals look like the square play tonight but I just can not help myself. Cardinals have the much better pitcher and team here look for them to handle their business getting us a nice win on the Cardinals low juice 8* Winner.

MLB | Rockies vs Diamondbacks
Play on: Diamondbacks -175 at YouWager
Free Play on Diamondbacks -175
In their last series before the All-Star break, the Colorado Rockies (44-42) and the Arizona Diamondbacks (43-45) begin a three-game series. One of the best pitchers in the N.L., Zack Greinke (9-3 2.90 ERA), gets the start for the Diamondbacks. For Colorado, Antonio Senzatela (7-5 4.83 ERA) gets the starts. Both teams are top ten in runs per game and are on a three-game losing streak. However, only one of these teams has a reigning Cy Young winner pitching. Greinke is not only a reigning Cy Young winner, but he could possibly win another one this year the way he is pitching. Greinke has the third-best WHIP in baseball (0.94) and has pitched the eighth most innings in the league. The Rockies are 4-8 in their last 12 games and are 16-27 as an underdog this season. Look for Greinke to continue his Cy Young form as we cash in easily on this game.

MLB | Cardinals vs Giants
Play on: Giants +106 at YouWager
1* Free Play on Giants +106
In a sport where one or two hot players can be the difference in a game, the Giants (39-47) will be leaning on left-hander Drew Pomeranz (2-8, 6.25 ERA) and the surging Evan Longoria when they host the Cardinals (43-42) tonight.
Coming off five shutout innings and having struck out 18 in his last two starts, Pomeranz will be going up against a relatively weak St. Louis lineup. The Cards’ bats rank in the bottom half of the league in average (23rd), runs scored (22nd), and slugging percentage (27th).
In the other dugout, San Francisco can look to Longoria for early production against rookie right-hander Dakota Hudson (6-4, 3.40 ERA), who takes the mound for St. Louis.
Although considered a disappointment since being traded from Tampa Bay last season, Longoria has recently found his good form. In the Giants’ last series against the Padres, Longoria drove in nine runs with a performance that included four homers.
San Francisco should be able to get to Hudson early if they get the best versions of Longoria and center-fielder Kevin Pillar, who’s been the Giants’ best bat this season with a .256 average and 12 homers.

Friday's comp play is over the total in the Orioles-Blue Jays meeting tonight at the Rogers Centre.
The O's have been sailing Over the total this summer, as they start this series riding an 8-1-2 Over clip their last 11 games played, while the Jays have been Over the posted total in 5 of their last 6 games, and are riding a 7-3 Over run for their last 10 games contested.
Toronto is also on an 18-7-1 Over run their last 26 games played on their home diamond, and they have combined to land Over the total in the last pair of series meetings with Baltimore.
I don't care if Jim Palmer and Dave Steib are on the hill, I say the hitters are gonna hit this Friday North of the Border.
Baltimore and Toronto Over the total.
4* BALTIMORE-TORONTO OVER

Free play for this Friday is the Yankees over the Rays in the second of 4 before the All-Star Break.
The Yankees have absolutely owned the Rays this year, as won yet again in extra-innings over Tampa at Tropicana Field yesterday to extend the winning streak to 5 in a row over Tampa and 8 of the 10 overall season series meetings this year!
New York knows how to post offense, and they have now won 7 of their last 8 games, while Tampa Bay continue to struggle with offensive consistency, and I just do not see the Rays slowing down this Yankees attack here on Friday night at the Trop.
It will be Masahiro Tanaka who is 4-2 with a 1.29 ERA for his career against the Rays, working against Brendan McKay who was dominant in his big league debut his last time out.
At the end of the day, New York is in Tampa Bay's heads, and I will lay the road wood with the Yanks over the Rays this Friday.
2* N.Y. YANKEES
