YTD: +115.92

Put these in overnight.........

Toronto RL +120
-Toronto comes in today's game vs the Pirates with nice record on the season of 74-53 and have won 4 of 6. They average almost 5 runs a game and have won 8 of 10 meetings with the Pirates dating back to last year. They start RHP Chris Bassitt who is 11-6 with a 4.22 ERA and is 4-2 with a 3.20 ERA during the day. The Pirates, however, can't hit scoring just 29 runs in their last 10 games (an average of 2.9 runs per game) and have a season batting average of only .227 during the day. Meanwhile, Pittsburgh starts RHP Johan Oviedo who has made 1 start in his career, lasting only 1 inning, giving up 2 runs on 3 hits and 3 BB's for an ERA of 18.00. I know this is a limited sample size, but this looks like a bull pen day for Pittsburgh. I see this game very similar to last night's game won by Toronto 7-3. Finally, Bassitt is 3-0 in his career vs the Pirates giving up only 3 ER's in 15 innings pitched for an ERA of 1.80 with 20 K's Play Toronto on the run line......

Seattle +130 & Over 8.5
-Today, Seattle looks to avoid the sweep against the Phillies starting RHP Luis Castillo. They stand at 68-58, 1.5 games ahead of the Astros in the AL West. Castillo stands at 8-6 with a 3.46 ERA on the season and a 3.16 ERA during day games. In addition, Seattle has gone 8-3 in Castillo' 11 road starts. Seattle is also a formidable 20-11 vs lefty starters this year. The Phillies start LHP Jesus Luzardo who is 11-6 with a 4.21 record on the year and a bloated ERA of 5.23 at home and an ERA of 5.64 during day games. In addition, in Luzardo's last start against the Mariners he gave up 6 ER's in just 5 IP while taking the loss. Finally, we can't ignore Philly's offensive prowness the last few games, scoring 29 runs in their last 3 games! I like Seattle to outlast the Phillies in a slugfest so I'm playing Seattle and the Over in this game.
