Tuesday’s FREE WINNER: Houston Astros.

Game 963.

4:05 PM PST/7:05 PM EST.

Guys, we’re not used to seeing the Houston Astros anywhere but atop the American League West. They did struggle a little bit in the first month or so. But they’re starting to heat up my friends. They won 19 of their last 25 games to climb within 3.5-games behind the Texas Rangers in the Division, at 36-24. They took Game 1 of this series yesterday with authority, 11-4. These two teams have met four times this season as the Astros have taken three or four, outscoring the Blue Jays by a combined, 30-11. Hunter Brown and Kevin Gausman are scheduled to start here today guys. The Houston right-hander is 5-2 with a 3.61 ERA this season. The team has won seven of his 10 starts on the campaign. He does come off his poorest outing, following three solid turns. But I expect him to bounce back here as he is a perfect, 4-0 on the road this season. The Blue Jays right-hander is 4-3 with a 2.76 ERA on the campaign. He certainly shows some impressive numbers. However, he has struggled against the Astros. In his career, he made six starts against Houston, going 2-4 with a whopping ERA of 5.77. He struggled just about six weeks ago against them, allowing eight runs in 4 2/3 innings pitched. He has pitched pretty well at home. However, you cannot ignore the fact that he really has problems against the Astros. The Blue Jays have dropped 15 of their last 22 against A.L. West and six of their last eight at home. While the Astros have won 17 of their last 22 against the A.L. East and 36 of their last 51 as a visitor. Making Houston an underdog here is a mistake. Together we will make the bookmaker pay. Take the Astros, my friends. Thank you.

Tuesday’s FREE WINNER: San Francisco Giants.

Game 957.

5:40 PM PST/8:40 PM EST.

Guys, the N.L. West has both Arizona and Los Angeles sitting atop the Division, tied for first place. San Francisco sits in third place, 5.5-games back at 29-30. This is a perfect opportunity for them to get a big win over a division rival, and hit the .500 mark. Colorado dwells in the cellar, 9.5-games back at a dismal, 26-35. Folks, I think in baseball, more than any other sport, trends and streaks really play a significant role. Having said that, this is the first meeting between these two teams this season. However, to say that the Giants have dominated the Rockies, would be an understatement. They’ve taken eight consecutive meetings over their division rival. But this isn’t anything new. Going back a bit, they have taken 40 of their last 58 overall meetings, which does include 13 of the last 16 at Coors field. John Brebbia had Denilson Lamet are scheduled here. The Giants right-hander will make his fifth start of the campaign. He has 2-0 with a 3.80 ERA in 2023. Over his career, he’s appeared in 21 games against Colorado, going 1-0 with a 2.20 ERA. The Rockies right-hander is 1-2 with a 13.17 ERA on this season. He has made 12 appearances which includes four starts against San Francisco, going 1-1 with a 5.22 ERA, Guys, I don’t expect either pitcher to see much action. Probably no more than two innings apiece. But that definitely benefits San Francisco, which surely owns the stronger bullpen. They travel pretty well, 5-2 their last seven on the road. Meanwhile, Colorado is just 1-4 their last five games played following an off day, 16-35 their last 51 versus the NL West, and 2-5 their last seven overall. I like San Fran here. Take it it’s a winner. Thank you.

Texas Rangers.

Game 976.

5:05 PM PST/8:05 PM EST.

Very quietly, the Texas Rangers have taken over first place in the American League West at 39-20. They have a 3.5-game lead over the Houston Astros. Meanwhile, a preseason favorite to take their division, the St. Louis Cardinals are certainly underachieving. They dwell in the NL Central cellar, 8.0-games back, at a dismal 25-36. They have lost four in a row and seven of their last 10, which includes Game 1 of this series yesterday. Granted, these two teams don’t face each other often. However, the Rangers have certainly had their way with the Cardinals, taking nine of their last 10 meetings, which does include five of their last six at Globe Life Field. Matthew Liberatore, and Dane Dunning are scheduled here. The Cardinals left-hander is 1-1 with a 4.91 ERA on the campaign. He has never faced Texas in his short career. However, there is a big disparity in how he pitches at home as opposed to how he pitches on the road. This season at home, he is 1-0 with a 3.00 ERA. However, when he is away from home, he is a dismal 0-1 with a 7.20 ERA. In his career in in seven games (six starts), on the road, he is 0-3 with a 7.90 ERA. The Rangers right-hander is 4-1 with a 2.06 ERA in 2023. He comes off his worst performance of the season. He hasn’t had too many poor outings. And I expect him to bounce back very strongly here and dominate. He has done well in Interleague play, going 4-1 with a 3.34 ERA in 13 games, which includes 10 starts. You can expect him to get a lot of run support as the Texas offense tops the Majors in both scoring and team batting average. St. Louis is 0-5 their last five games played on the road, 1-10 their last 11 games played versus the American League West, and 1-4 their last five games played versus right-handed starters. Texas is 6-1 their last seven Interleague games played, 5-1 their last six games played versus left-handed starters, and 22-8 their last 30 games played at home. Take the Rangers. Thank you.

Los Angeles Dodgers on the run line.

Game 953.

4:10 PM PST/7:10 PM EST.

The Dodgers dropped two of three in a series with the Yankees at home the last few days. Lucky for them the Diamondbacks also lost their last two outings. The two division rivals are tied for first place in the NL West. Folks, it looks like ‘Zona isn’t going anywhere. So, L.A. must keep their foot on the gas right now. And what better team to face than the struggling Cincinnati Reds. This is the first meeting between these two National League rivals this season. However, going back a bit, Los Angeles has taken nine consecutive meetings with Cincinnati, by a combined score of 65-24. None of those victories came by a single run. Tony Gonsolin, and Luke Weaver are scheduled starters here. The Dodgers right-hander is 3-1 with a 1.77 ERA on the campaign. He has not allowed more than three runs in any outing this season. And in three career appearances, which includes two starts against Cincinnati, he is 1-0 with a 3.97 ERA. The Reds right-hander is 1-2 with a 5.36 ERA on the campaign. In eight career appearances, which includes five starts against the Dodgers, he is 1-3 with a 7.57 ERA. On the road, Gonsolin has an anemic ERA of 1.35 this season, while at home, Weaver owns a whopping ERA of 5.64. Los Angeles has won five consecutive meetings at Great American Ballpark. They are also 40-16 their last 56 games played following a loss and 52-23 their last 75 games played against the NL Central. Take the Dodgers on the runline. Thank you.
