MLB | Phillies vs Marlins
Play on: Phillies -1½ -135 at 5dimes
The MLB Comp Play for Sunday is on the Phillies on the run line at 1:10 eastern. The Phillies fit an undefeated system here that has cashed 81% on the run line and pertains to large road favorites off a blowout road wins. Miami has lost 17 of 22 . Today they have to face Nola who has held then to 2 or less runs in 6 straight starts. Miami has won the last 2 vs Philly when Hernandez is on the mound but that should change here today as Philly takes the finale by more than a run For the LB Free pick. Play on the Phillies -1.5 runs.

Rays vs. Orioles
Rays-1½ -110
The Baltimore Orioles put a 7-1 beating on the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday. A major upset, particularly considering that the Orioles are a weak 21-46 at home while Tampa Bay is a solid 42-24 on the road, and I think the visitors will bounce back with an easy win Sunday afternoon.
Baltimore right-hander Dylan Bundy (5-13, 5.03 ERA) has a 4-6 career record with an ugly 6.39 ERA in 13 career outings against the Rays. Bundy was lit up for seven runs on eight hits in just one frame when he faced them on July 12 and he is 1-8 with a 5.16 ERA in 13 home starts on the season.
As for the Rays, Diego Castillo (2-6, 3.44 ERA) will serve as the opener today, a strategy they've had plenty of success with. The Rays pitching staff has the second-best ERA across the major leagues this season and it should have no trouble to maneuver around Baltimore's lineup.
Yesterday's defeat put Tampa Bay a half game behind Cleveland for the top wild card in the American League. They can simply not afford to give up another "easy W" against a team like Baltimore if they want to make the postseason.
Free pick on Tampa Bay Rays -1.5.

Tigers vs. Twins
10* FREE MLB PICK (Tigers +180)
I'll take my chances here with Detroit as a massive road dog against the Twins. Tigers have a couple wins over the last few games and are swinging a hot bat at the moment. Detroit is hitting .280 as a team over their last 7 games and have recorded 10 or more hits in 5 of those 7. That offense will be up against a fading Martin Perez, who after an incredible start to the year is sitting with a 4.33 ERA and 1.396 WHIP in 22 starts. He's also 1-3 with a 4.88 ERA in 5 career starts against the Tigers. Give me Detroit +180!

Red Sox vs. Padres
Jack’s Free Pick Sunday: San Diego Padres -112
The San Diego Padres will be highly motivated to avoid the sweep after losing the first two games of this series to the Boston Red Sox. Look for them to take Game 3 and salvage this home series Sunday.
Joey Lucchesi has been dominant at home all season. He is 6-3 with a 2.91 ERA and 1.076 WHIP in 13 home starts this year.
Brian Johnson will be getting his 7th start of the season for the Red Sox. He is 0-1 with a 4.50 ERA and 1.749 WHIP in six starts, including 0-1 with a 5.99 ERA and 1.776 WHIP in his last three starts. Bet the Padres Sunday.

I'll play the St. Louis Cardinals tonight, on the run line, against the Colorado Rockies.
I couldn't find anything any more attractive than the Redbirds, as they aim to sweep the Rockies. With the momentum in full swing, I don't think we need to worry about who is throwing for either team.
Though pitchers are automatically listed when making Run Line wagers, I am insisting you DO NOT worry about who the scheduled starters are. In the event of a scratch, you MUST re-wager the game with the new pitcher(s) who are scheduled. This play will stand no matter who pitches for either team.
St. Louis is 39-24 at home this season, while the Rockies have dipped to 25-43 on the road. And now that the Cardinals are back in first place, 1 1/2 games in front of the Chicago Cubs, it's important to maintain that momentum heading into next week.
The Cardinals have won 7 of 10, while outscoring foes by 22 runs in that span. They're hitting .258 across those 10 contests, while their staff has an impressive 3.21 as a whole.
This one won't be close.
