MLB | White Sox vs Royals
Play on: White Sox -121 at 5dimes
LUCAS GIOLITO (R) vs. BRAD KELLER (R)
Righty Lucas Giolito 8-1, 2.54 ERA, 78 SO, is off his AL Pitcher of the Month and Player of the Week nomination. He has been nothing short of dominant and considering his current from deserves our respect and backing here this afternoon vs the light hitting Kansas City Royals . He's given up just 5 runs in 43.2 innings over his past six starts. Giolito is making his fourth start of the season vs. Kansas City. He's 2-0 with a 2.60 ERA against the Royals. GIOLITO is 5-0 in his carrer when starting against KANSAS CITY with an ERA of 2.43 and a WHIP of 0.880.
White Sox are 7-0 in Giolitos L/7 starts and 5-0 in his L/5 road starts.
Royals are 18-38 in their last 56 games vs. a right-handed starter.
Meanwhile, the Royals starter Kellers last 8 starts has seen his team go just 1-7 and they are 0-4 in Kellers last 4 starts with 5 days of rest. The right-hander is (3-7, 4.50 ERA).
KANSAS CITY is 8-23 against the money line when the money line is +125 to -125 this season.
MLB Road teams when the money line is +125 to -125 (CHI WHITE SOX) - with a starting pitcher whose WHIP is 1.300 or better on the season-AL, with a hot starting pitcher- WHIP 0.800 or better over his last 3 starts are 65-33 L/5 seasons for a 66% conversion rate for bettors.

MLB | ATL vs MIA
Play on: UNDER 8 -110
This should be a well-pitched affair. Richards has a 1.02 ERA (0.849 WHIP) his last three starts, recording 19 K's in 17 2/3 innings. Not to be outdone, Teheran has a 1.15 ERA his last three starts. In fact, over his past six games, Teheran has a 0.83 ERA. Included in that stretch was a dominant (6 shutout innings, 2 hits allowed) outing against Miami. That one finished with a final score of 3-1. The Marlins have seen the 'under' go 16-3 in day games this season. Consider the Under.

New York Mets were huge favorites yesterday and man I missed the boat on the Colorado Rockies as they cruised to an easy win Mets are at home and must win games like these. Now the public has shifted sides and are backing the Rockies at a huge clip and this line is moving the wrong way. When people are selling I am buying.
Invest 9 units on the Mets rotation #912

My free play is on the Pittsburgh Pirates on the road against the Milwaukee Brewers, and be sure you're listing Jordan Lyles over Zach Davies.
It's a division rivalry, and I'll take a shot with the big underdog, especially when there's a little revenge in order. These teams just met, and Lyles lost to Davies in Pittsburgh. Now it's time to return the favor.
Lyles might have done too much on Sunday, when he focused on two pitches - his fastball and curveball - during a 4-2 loss. He threw 109 pitches, and labored. He's going to be much more relaxed tonight, and I'm thinking he'll open up the arsenal and stretch his repertoire.
And I'm sure the Pirates will be looking to chase Davies early, after he just pitched into the ninth inning for the first time in his career, against these Bucs. He was driven a bit that night, as the Pirates were coming off a 13-inning game the night before that strained the bullpen. At 6-0, with a 2.20 ERA, and pitching at home, I think he's capable of looking past this team and underestimating Pittsburgh's hitters.
Take the road dog and list both.
1* PIRATES (Lyles over Davies)

Saturday night comp play will be the Nationals and the Padres to cool down on their high-scoring ways of late as Max Scherzer and Eric Lauer climb the bump and set the batters down for the majority of the evening.
Mighty Max may only be 3-5 for the season, but he has been on target of late, as Scherzer is 1-0 over his last 3 starts, and in those 3 starts he has allowed just 2 runs to score on 14 hits over his last 22 innings pitched. He has also fanned 30 hitters in that stretch, half of them in his last start, a 4-1 road win at Cincinnati in a game that held Under the total. That marked the second start in a row that has held Under the total with Scherzer doing the mound-work.
Southpaw Eric Lauer has been as steady as they come, as each of his last 3 starts have seen him allow just 1 earned run. Lauer has allowed 2 earned runs or less in 6 of his last 7 assignments, with the Under at 2-1-1 his last 4 starts. Lauer's best work on the hill has come in his home park where he sports a season ERA of 2.50, with 5 of his 7 starts thus far at Petco Park having landed Under the total.
With last night's Over, Washington is now 5-3 Over in their last 8, while San Diego has been Over the total in each of their last 7.
I say throw those trends out the window, tonight is all about Scherzer and Lauer doing the damage and keeping the runs off of the scoreboard.
Nationals-Padres Under.
2* WASHINGTON-SAN DIEGO UNDER

My free winner for Saturday is on the Kansas City Royals at home against the Chicago White Sox. Be sure you list starting pitchers Brad Keller and Lucas Giolito in this American League Central revenge clash.
It's time for Giolito to come down to earth after being named AL Pitcher of the Month and Player of the Week. While I realize he's given up a mere five runs over 43.2 innings in his past six starts, one of those games was against these same Royals - including Keller, who started opposite Giolito.
Keller gave up four runs over six innings in the loss, and then lasted seven innings on Sunday, when he gave up nine hits and three runs in a 5-1 loss to the Rangers. He also struck out six and walked none.
I like my chances with the Royals and Keller. Look for them to feed off of Friday's win, which saw them stop a six-game slide with a 6-4 win over Chicago.
Home underdog and list both.
2* ROYALS (Keller over Giolito)

Let's go ahead and play this Saturday late afternoon meeting at Progressive Field between the Yankees and the Indians to see the runs add up to an Over with CC Sabathia and Adam Plutko serving 'em up.
Last night saw just 7 combined runs as the teams played a rare series Under.
Even with last night's Under, the series numbers show a 5-3-2 Over run when these teams meet over the last 10 showdowns.
Sabathia is back in the rotation, after his balky knee gave him some issues yet again and kept him 10 days in between starts. Each of his last pair of starts, and 4 of his last 5 starts overall have ended up playing Over the total.
His counterpart Adam Plutko has split time between the bullpen and the starting rotation, and his last start back on May 23rd lasted just over 5 innings with 12 hits and 7 runs allowed.
You get the feeling that this game could see a bunch of crooked numbers posted? I sure do!
Yankees and Indians to land Over the total on Saturday late afternoon from Cleveland.
3* N.Y. YANKEES-CLEVELAND OVER

COMPLIMENTARY WINNER
I'll take the Texas Rangers against the Oakland Athletics in the first game of their doubleheader, and in this one I want you listing just one pitcher. We're siding with Texas' Joe Palumbo, who is scheduled to make his MLB debut.
The left-hander has made nine starts and had one long relief appearance for Double-A Frisco, where he posted a 3.38 ERA, a 1.28 WHIP and a .222 opponents’ batting average.
Now the New York-native steps to the big show to make his debut, albeit in Arlington, far from West Islip. And while the 30th round pick from the 2013 draft knows he is unlikely stay with the club long, he's never going to get this moment back, and I think he makes the most of it.
Think about this, the A's have a predominately right-handed lineup, and this lefty is pitching with command and confidence as he's averaging 7.3 hits, 4.3 walks and 11.5 strikeouts per nine innings.
The Rangers hitters will provide run support for the youngsters, with the ninth-best lineup hitting .257 that is scoring a league second-best 343 runs. They also have the third-best slugging percentage (.453) in the American League, led by Hunter Pence, who is crushing the ball at a .593 clip.
We can also depend on Nomar Mazara, who is 13-for-41 with a double, two home runs and seven RBIs over the last 10 games for Texas.
Play the Rangers, whose offense comes to life while their rookie takes the first of the twinbill.
5* RANGERS (List Palumbo ONLY)
