4/10 – MLB – Three evening games added to the five afternoon plays – TTF picks

I see an edge in all 5 of Monday's afternoon MLB contests.  Quick picks below:

1:05pm: Rays +120 RH Alex Cobb (1-0, 1.59 ERA) vs. Yankees -133 RH Michael Pineda (0-1, 9.82)

TB +0.178 TTF - 1 unit

1:10pm: Red Sox +109 LH Chris Sale (0-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Tigers -119 RH Justin Verlander (1-0, 2.84)

BOS +0.75 TTF - 1 unit

4:15pm: Athletics +101 RH Jharel Cotton (0-1, 10.38 ERA) vs. Royals -111 RH Ian Kennedy (0-1, 5.40)

OAK +0.809 TTF - 1 unit

4:35pm: Diamondbacks +116 RH Taijuan Walker (1-0, 6.00 ERA) vs. Giants -128 LH Matt Moore (0-1, 5.06)

AZ +0.92 TTF - 1 unit

5:10pm: Astros +120 RH Charlie Morton (0-0, 3.00 ERA) vs. Mariners -133 LH James Paxton (0-0, 0.00)

HOU +0.199 TTF - 1 unit

Updated 3:00pm - Three evening plays.

7:05pm: Reds +121 LH Brandon Finnegan (1-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Pirates -134 RH Tyler Glasnow (2016: 0-2, 4.24)

I like Cincinnati's young pitcher a little better than Pittsburgh's.  Good value on CIN with a +0.845 TTF rating.  1 unit.

7:05pm: Mets -145 RH Jacob deGrom (0-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Phillies +131 RH Jerad Eickhoff (0-1, 2.70)

Philadelphia is coming off a nice series win over WAS and has Eickhoff on the mound.  New York struggled with MIA in their latest series.  PHI +0.31 on the TTF - 1 unit.

8:05pm: Dodgers +138 LH Alex Wood (0-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Cubs -153 LH Jon Lester (0-0, 1.80)

It's banner night at Wrigley this evening.  I wouldn't be surprised if the Cubs are a little pre-occupied for this game.  With a +0.913 TTF rating, LAD is worth a 1 unit play here.

Good luck, players!
