Atlanta (Sale) RL +124 over Philadelphia (Nola) (2x)

They have now lost 5 of 6 vs Atlanta, with all the wins by 2 runs or more. In addition, they are 1-11 their last 12, with all Phillies loss except one being by more than 2 runs.

Boston (Early) +120 over Baltimore (Bradish) (1x)
-Maybe it was something in the water, but yesterday the Red Sox exploded for 17 runs against the O's, with Baltimore using 4 different relievers giving up 10 runs in 7 1/3 innings of relief. The Red Sox are tremendously under valued right now and now, after the firing of manager Alex Cora, may want to give a good impression for new interim manager Chad Tracy out of Triple-A Worcester. Although his W/L record doesn't reflect it, Red Sox starter Early has an ERA of 2.88 this season. Including last year, he has an ERA of 2.64 with 53 K's in 44 1/3 IP. Meanwhile, the O's start RHP Kyle Bradish who is 2-3 this season with a 4.68 ERA and rarely goes past 5 innings pitched exposing the O's overused bullpen. Play Boston this afternoon.

Meanwhile, Rays 'scheduled' starter/opener Griffen Jax has given up 7 ER's in 8 IP in 11relief appearences. In addition, the Rays have the 3rd WORST bullpen in the major with an ERA of 5.44 that will come into play after Jax. Play Minnesota/Tampa Bay Over 8.5 runs.
