These stick out to me.
Oakland A's vs. Detroit Tigers O/U 7
Pick: OAK ML -125
Gray has not allowed more than 3 runs in any of his 10 games with 2 or less in 7 of them while limiting opponents to a .206 avg. Hard to believe but the Tigers have score 2 or less runs in their L5 and are batting .167 w/RISP in their L8. Oakland's money line has really jumped with just over 50% of the bets coming in on them. I have no doubt the Detroit will break out of its funk but don't think it will be tonight. Scherzer has great numbers against Oakland (2-0 with a 1.82 ERA) but the bats are just not there right now to back him up. Lean under as well especially in the unfriendly confines of the Coliseum.
Cincinnati vs. Los Angeles Dodgers O/U 6.5
Pick: CIN ML +171 and U6.5 (-110)
Dodgers have been pitching lights out and Greinke usually the clubs most reliable starter now takes the hill following two stellar performances by Beckett and Ryu. The money is really coming in on the Dodgers and rightfully so as Greinke is 3-0 with a 2.42 ERA in four games at home this year, giving him an 11-2 record and 2.18 ERA in 18 starts at Chavez Ravine since joining the Dodgers, however one of his two losses were to these Reds last season. The man toeing the rubber for the Reds is no slouch though, Alfredo Simon is 6-2 with a 2.31 ERA winning all five of his road starts behind a 1.05 ERA while holding opponents to a .179 avg. I'm not a normal "value" type of bettor but think the Reds showed some fight with that late comeback attempt last night and think they get the win in a low scoring game tonight.
