Yankees: Too bad this game is not on the main slate because of the early start. I love picking on the worst bullpen in baseball that is found in Baltimore, and it isn’t like Andrew Cashner is Cy Young. Look for at least two home runs hit by the Bronx Bombers.
Red Sox: Kyle Freeland is a good pitcher in Coors. He is not so good away from Denver. Strange, I know! The Red Sox are hitting the cover off the ball and are the hottest offense (and team in baseball). A few balls are bound to be hit off or over the Green Monster.
Athletics: Mike Leake is not a good pitcher. Even though this game is played in a great pitching park in Seattle, it is likely that Oakland is able to score runs here, especially if they get to the third worst bullpen (in terms of ERA) in the league.
Brewers: GPP stack here. Citizen’s Bank in Philadelphia is a great hitter’s park. Even though Milwaukee is not nearly as good of a hitting team on the road, they have a decent shot at scoring a bunch of runs in this spot.
Diamondbacks: Joe Musgrove has really struggled his last few starts. If that trend continues, the Snakes could get into the 21st ranked bullpen (4.56 ERA) early and pile up a bunch of runs.
Twins: Even though they will likely be without one of their biggest bats in Nelson Cruz, they are still in a terrific position here against Felix Pena and a potential bullpen game. The Twins can really hit at home and guess where they are at? Yup the Great White North.
Astros: This is likely the highest owned stack on the slate. And with good reasons, the Astros are hot and they are hitting long balls. Last night they got to much-improved Matthew Boyd for a couple, look for that to continue against Ryan Carpenter.
