We heard all kinds of reports on how bad Chris Sale looked in his rehab start. Then he came out and fired 5 scoreless innings! He’ll face the Yankees and ace pitcher Gerrit Cole Sunday. The BoSox touched Cole up pretty good in their last matchup! Who gets the monday today? Get our Box/NYY pick here!
Sunday is void of Sunday Night Baseball due to players taking off early for the All Star break. The day kicks off with a Royals vs. Blue Jays matchup at Noon ET in which an apparently rejuvenated Jose Berrios, coming off a 13K performance will go up against the KC Royals and an inexperienced lineup. Get our KC/Tor prediction here!
Don’t sleep on the Reds Saturday! They’ve won six of their last eight games! They’ll send 6’6″ lefty Nick Lodolo to the mound to face Miles Mikolas, who has looked good as well. Get our Cin/Stl pick here!
A pair of lefties meetup at the “Big A” in Anaheim Friday night in a game where runs may be at a premium. Clayton Kershaw will be on the hill for the Dodgers and Patrick Sandoval for the Angels. Be sure to check the status of Mike Trout as he’s questionable at time of print! Get our LAD/LAA wager recommendation here!
Thursday’s MLB card closes out with west coast action at Oracle Park where one heck of a pitching matchup will take place between Corbin Burnes of the Milwaukee Brewers and Carlos Rodon of the San Francisco Giants. Both pitchers have been filthy as of late and are missing a ton of bats. Get our Mil/SF betting prediction here!
Can Zack Wheeler keep the injury ravaged Phillies in the game on the road against the Blue Jays? His numbers are tough to fade as he’s got a 0.00 ERA in 14 innings in July, had a 2.43 ERA in June and a 1.65 ERA in May! He’ll be opposed by Ross Stripling who runs hot and cold. Get our Phi/Tor bet recommendation here!
The Phillies are expected to have a bullpen game Tuesday in Canada as they’ll start Andrew Bellatti to the mound to face Jose Berrios, who has been as helter skelter as any pitcher in baseball this season. Get our Phi/Tor bet recommendation here!
Monday’s abbreviated ten game schedule kicks off with a day game at Kaufman Stadium between the Detroit Tigers and Kansas City Royals. Scheduled starters include Michael Pineda vs. Brad Keller. KC is a short -135 favorite which tells us the sportsbooks think A.J. Hinch’s crew has a shot of winning! Get our Det/KC pick here!
The steamroller known as the Los Angeles Dodgers have won ten of their last eleven games and send nasty lefty Julio Urias to the mound to face the Chicago Cubs and Drew Smyly who has looked downright bad in three of his last four starts. Get our Chi/LAD pick here!
Sunday Night Baseball on ESPN gives us an interesting matchup between Jameson Taillon and Nick Pivetta. Taillon has been downright bad in five of his last six starts and Pivetta allowed 7 earned runs in his last start. We could see some fireworks at Fenway tonight!
