-The Braves have the best record in baseball at 37-19 with a run differencial of +95 (2nd only to the Dodgers in MLB) and are 20-9 on the road so far this season. Today, they throw their ace, LHP Chris Sale at the Red Sox. Sale is 7-3 on the season with a 1.89 ERA and is excellent current form with an ERA of 1.09 and 43 strikeouts in 33 IP. He is a career 3-0 vs the Red Sox allowing just 2 ER's in 19 innings pitched striking out 27 batters. Meanwhile, the Red Sox start LHP Payton Tolle who has pitched great in his own right, going 2-2 with a 2.45 ERA overall. However, he is just 0-1 at home with a 3.71 at home where Boston is just 9-18 on the year. In Tolle's career he has only 9 major league starts compared with Sale's 322 starts, where he is 32-11 with Atlanta. Play Atlanta this afternoon.

ChiCubs (Rea) vs Pittsburgh (Skenes) Over 7 (1x)
-The Cubbies got off the shnide last night with a 10-4 victory over Pittsburgh. Tonight, the Cubs start RHP Colin Rea who is 4-2 in 8 starts with an ERA of 4.83 and a not-so-good current form with an ERA of 5.26. Meanwhile, I'm not too sold on the current form of pitcher Paul Skenes who in his last 2 starts has given up 9 ER's in just 10 IP. 4 out of his last 5 home starts have gone over the total. The Cubs and Pirates this year are 60-50 to the Over and this game is a rematch of a game last year (in Pitts) that flew over the total in ab 8-3 Cubs victory.

Houston (Arrighetti) +132 over Texas (Eovaldi) (1x)
-The Astros are red hot right now winning 5 of 6 and just 1 game out of 3rd place after an awful start. tonight start Spencer Arrighetti who is 6-1 on the season with a 1.32 ERA. His current form is also excellent, going 4-1 with and ERA of 0.90 in his last 5 starts. in a start vs Texas this year on 5/15, he shut them out on 1 hit through 7 innings. Texas, meanwhile, have dropped 5 of 6 and 3-straight to Houston and tonight start RHP Nathan Eovaldi who is 5-5 with a 3.65 ERA on the season. He also has had success vs the Astros, but I'm gonna take Arrighetti and the Astros at the big dog price........
