Bets

Phillies ML -113 W

- As you can see Brian Johnson has been getting smashed by righties this year, all of the Phillies power hitters (Realmuto,Hoskins,Harper) are righties.

- Keep an eye on Harper being DTD.

- Harper Boasting a .622 xSLG against LHP should be in for a great night if he plays.

Chicago F5 -0.5 (-140) W

- The Cubs have massive home/road splits this year.

- I believe that we are getting this line at somewhat of a value because of Hamels' last outing.

- The Cubs should be able to get to Tyler Beede whose ERA raises from 5.14 at home all the way to 6.23 on the road.

Nationals TT o4.5 (-115) L

- With 4 Washington players (Rendon,Soto,Adams,Kendrick) having an xSLG over .500 against RHP and Soto/Adams having ISO's nearing .300 against RHP they should have no problem getting 5 plus runs off of Chris Archer.

Weather

- Watch popup storms in CIN

- Wind blowing out 8-10 MPH in Oakland

- Wind blowing in 9-10 MPH in Texas but Humid and Hot

- Wind blowing out 6-7 MPH in Chicago

General Notes

- Not usually a fan of BvP but in 3 starts against the Diamondbacks Kyle Freeland has given up 5/5/8 runs.

- Check Rangers lineup Nomar Mazara heading to I.L, Possible that hunter Pence sits the 2nd game of a double header. Very weak lineup if Pence is out.

- Mariners have had the #1 wOBA against LHP since ASG. Could be a good leverage play stacking against a chalky Beeks.
