A 25-Run Outburst

The Washington Nationals released a lot of pent-up frustration in Tuesday's victory against the New York Mets, rolling up a franchise-record 25 runs in a victory. It was also the most lopsided loss in Mets' franchise history, surpassing a 26-7 beatdown from the Philadelphia Phillies back in 1985. Things got so bad for the Mets that SS Jose Reyes came on to pitch for the first time in his career, and he served up two home runs and six runs in his inning of work. These teams will not have a quick turnaround, playing at 12:05 p.m. ET on Wednesday. RHP Noah Syndergaard will be opposed by LHP Tommy Milone. The under is 8-3-1 in Thor's past 12 outings overall, and 4-1 in his past five against the National League East. The over has cashed in five straight at home for the Nats, while going 4-1 in their past five at home vs. RHP. The under is 23-11 in Washington's past 34 following a win, and 35-17 in their past 52 against a righty.

Syndergaard (illness) will be coming back from the 10-day disabled list. He has had his way over the Nats, as the current collection of Washington batters are just 29-for-115 (.252) with one homer, 13 RBI and 31 strikeouts, good for just a .677 OPS. Only INF Anthony Rendon has taken him out of the park, going 8-for-23 (.348) overall with a double, a homer and five RBI. Thor has punched out All-Star Bryce Harper on seven occasions over 21 at-bats, while Harper is good for a double, five singles and two RBI.

Looking Ahead

Wednesday, Aug. 1

The over has been the play for the Blue Jays lately, going 5-1 over their past six games and 4-1 in their past five on the road. RHP Marcus Stroman will take the ball for this day game, but the 'under' is 8-1 in their past nine with Stroman on the hill, including 4-1 over his past five road assignments. The under is also 4-1-1 in his past six on the road against a winning side, and 4-0 in his past four overall against teams with a winning overall record. However, the over is 9-4 in the team's past 13 against a lefty. LHP Sean Manaea is on the hill to the home team, and the under is 8-3 in the lefty's past 11 home assignments. The under is also 4-0 in his past four at home against a team with a losing record, and 4-1 in their past five overall. The over is 6-2-2 in Manaea's past 10 at home against an AL East club, however.

LHP Cole Hamels will make his Cubs debut on the road against the Pirates. The under is 6-2 in Chicago's past eight games overall, while going 5-2 in their past seven against a team with a winning overall record. However, the over is 11-4 in Chicago's past 15 against NL Central foes. The over is also 6-2-1 in Pittsburgh's past seven against a southpaw, while going 4-1 in their past five inside the division. The over is also 4-1 in Nick Kingham's past five starts at PNC Park. In this series, the under has cashed in four of the past five. As far as Hamels is concerned, he was turned up in his most recent start against the A's, as a member of the Texas Rangers, and the over is 3-1-1 in his past five. He has been much more effective on the road, and the under is 5-0-1 in his past six starts away from home.

The Brewers and Dodgers will battle again on Wednesday, and the 'under' has hit in the first two games of the series. The under is also a perfect 5-0 over the past five for L.A., while going 4-1 in their past five at Chavez Ravine. The under is 28-9 in Milwaukee's past 37 games overall, while going 6-0 in Chase Anderson's past six against the NL West and 13-3-1 in his past 17 road outings. The under is 22-8-2 in the past 32 starts overall for C.A., too. However, the over is 9-4 in Milwaukee's past 13 against left-handed starting pitching. As far as L.A. is concerned, the over has hit in five of Rich Hill's past six overall at home, while going 6-1 in his past seven against teams with a winning overall record. The over is also 9-0 in Hill's past nine after recording a quality start in his most recent appearance. The over is 10-3 in Hill's past 13 starts overall, too, but the under is 6-0 in the past six in this series in L.A., and 7-2 in the past nine overall.

Betting On The Wind

The wind is not expected to be a factor in any of the MLB ballparks on Hump Day, blowing at 10 mph or less in each venue.

Thursday, Aug. 2

Angels LHP Andrew Heaney takes the ball against the new-look Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday afternoon. The over has cashed in three of his past four appearances on the road.

Cardinals RHP Miles Mikolas has seen the under connect in seven of his past eight starts at Busch Stadium II, while the over has hit in four of his past five starts overall. In addition, the over is 11-5 in the past 16 overall fort he Cards, and 8-3 in their past 11 vs. RHP. The over is also 8-3 in their past 11 against a winning side, and 5-1 in their past six at home vs. RHP.

It's lefty vs. lefty when Robbie Erlin and Mike Montgomery lock horns at the Friendly Confines. The over is 4-1-1 in San Diego's past six against LHP, and 4-1 in Erlin's past five against a team with a winning overall record. For Chicago, the under is 4-1 in their past five at home against a lefty, while going 5-2 in their past seven overall against southpaws. In addition, the under is 5-1 in Montgomery's past six at home against a team with a losing record, and 4-0 in his past four when working on five days of rest.

The Brewers and Dodgers complete their four-game set with a solid pitching matchup. RHP Jhoulys Chacin and LHP Clayton Kershaw will hook up. The over is a perfect 4-0 in Chacin's past four road outings, and 6-1 in his past seven overall. The over is also 9-4 in Milwaukee's past 13 against left-handed starting pitchers, and 41-18 in their past 59 on the road against southpaws. For the Dodgers, the under is 5-1 in Kershaw's past six working on five days of rest, while the over is 5-2 in his past seven at home. However, the under is 18-8-1 in the past 27 at home against a team with a winning overall mark.

Betting On The Wind

The winds will be kicking at 11-13 mph blowing from home plate to left field at Guaranteed Rate Field for the Royals-White Sox matinee. The wind will also be blowing out from 10-13 mph from home plate to straightaway center field at Citizens Bank Park for the battle between the Marlins and Phillies, so watch the over there.

In D.C., the Reds and Nationals will be battling some raindrops. If they do squeeze the game in, the winds will be howling from 11-14 mph from home plate to the left-center field power alley. The same holds true for the Braves-Mets game, which has a jetstream at 11-14 mph to the left-center field power alley. At Fenway, the winds will blow to straightaway center field from 12-15 mph in the rivalry game between the Yankees and Red Sox.

Friday, Aug. 3

Cubs LHP Jose Quintana takes the ball for the matinee game against the Padres. The under has cashed in three of his past four starts overall. He has been knocked around at home this season, however, posting a 5.02 ERA over 43 innings across eight home starts, serving up seven homers with 21 walks issued.

Marlins RHP Jose Urena will toe the slab against the Phillies at 'The Vault' to kick off a new series. He has a 3-10 record, but a respectable 4.40 ERA this season. The last time he faced the Phillies on July 15 he allowed five earned runs, four hits and four walks in just four innings in a no-decision as the 'over' connected at Marlins Park.

Athletics LHP Bret Anderson will face the Tigers in Friday's battle. He has made eight starts overall this season, but seven of those appearances have come on the road. His only appearance at Oakland Coliseum was a disaster, as he allowed nine runs - seven earned - and 10 hits across just three innings with three walks and no strikeouts against the Astros. He has allowed six or more hits in five os his past seven appearances. Despite the fact he has been so hittable, and his ERA is 5.55 overall on the season, the 'under' is actually 5-1 across his past six appearances, and 7-2 over the past nine.

Wednesday's Diamond Notes
Kevin Rogers

Hottest team: Pirates (14-3 last 17)

Pittsburgh continues its ascent towards a potential Wild Card berth after winning its ninth home game in its past 11 tries on Tuesday. The Pirates held off the Cubs, 5-4 to creep within six games of first place in the NL Central and three games of the second Wild Card position in the National League. In the past 14 games, the Pirates are 11-1 when they score at least one run. Yes, for as silly as it sounds, Pittsburgh has been shut out twice in this stretch and lost a 12-6 decision to the Mets last Friday, but won the other 11 contests when scoring at least once.

The Pirates will square off against recently acquired pitcher Cole Hamels tonight in the second game of their series with the Cubs. Nick Kingham looks to bounce back for Pittsburgh after getting knocked around for six runs and seven hits in three innings in that six-run loss to the Mets last Friday. Kingham has won his previous three starts, while trying to beat the Cubs for the first time in three outings this season.

Coldest team: Marlins (3-6 last nine)

Miami has struggled through the first two games of this series by getting outscored, 16-9 in a pair of losses to Atlanta. In fact, the Braves have scored at least eight runs against the Marlins in four of the past six matchups since May. Miami dropped three consecutive games only once in July, but own a 3-6 record since a four-game winning streak from July 14-21.

Pablo Lopez has seen several ups and downs in his brief Major League career as he has allowed two earned runs or less in two starts, while giving up at least four runs in his other three outings. Lopez has not faced the Braves yet this season, but yielded four runs and nine hits in 5.2 innings of a 9-1 beating by the Nationals last Friday.

Hottest pitcher: Kyle Freeland, Rockies (9-6, 3.13 ERA)

Colorado put together a perfect July record when Freeland took the mound by going 5-0 in his five starts last month. Freeland yielded one earned run or less in three of those outings, while coming off a scoreless effort in a 3-1 home victory over the Athletics last Friday. The Rockies have won each of Freeland’s last two starts away from Coors Field, although he picked up no-decisions at Arizona and Seattle. Freeland is also riding an incredible UNDER run as the Rockies are 8-1 in his last nine outings, even though five of those UNDER came on totals of 10 or higher.

Coldest pitcher: Jakob Junis, Royals (5-11, 5.06 ERA)

Kansas City sits at the bottom of the AL Central as Junis has been ice-cold since the end of May. The Royals began the season with a 7-3 mark in Junis’ first 10 starts, but own a dreadful 1-8 record in his past nine trips to the mound. In five of the previous seven starts, Junis has been tagged for five runs or more, including allowing seven runs in 4.2 innings of a 7-2 setback to the Yankees last Thursday. Junis looks for better run support from his teammates as Kansas City’s lineup has tallied three runs or fewer in seven of his last eight starts.

Biggest OVER run: Rays (4-0 last four)

Following an embarrassing weekend in a three-game sweep by the last-place Orioles, the Rays rebounded in Tuesday’s 10-6 victory over the Angels. Tampa Bay allowed double-digit runs in all three losses at Baltimore and while they gave up six runs last night, the Rays got their offense on track after scoring five runs or fewer in its previous six games. Tyler Glasnow makes his Tampa Bay debut following Tuesday’s trade with Pittsburgh for Chris Archer. Glasnow has yet to start a game this season, but knowing manager Kevin Cash’s unorthodox way of starting relievers, that isn’t a surprise that the right-hander will start.

Biggest UNDER run: Dodgers (5-0 last five)

The Dodgers’ offense is nowhere to be found right now as Los Angeles has plated a total of three runs in the last three games. Los Angeles was shut out for the first time since June 20 in Tuesday’s 1-0 defeat to Milwaukee, while suffering its first three-game losing streak since late June. Rich Hill heads to the mound for the Dodgers this evening as the southpaw has cashed the OVER in each of his last two starts, while receiving 14 runs or support in those victories over the Brewers and Braves.

Matchup to watch: Brewers vs. Dodgers

Milwaukee and Los Angeles continue their four-game series at Chavez Ravine after the Brewers have captured the first two games. Lorenzo Cain’s RBI double in the third inning held up in a 1-0 victory for Milwaukee on Tuesday as a +155 underdog, while left-hander Wade Miley tossed seven scoreless innings and allowed two hits.

Manny Machado’s six-game hitting streak came to a halt on Tuesday, while the top six batters in the Dodgers’ lineup combined to go 0-for-19. The Dodgers have lost four of Rich Hill’s six home starts this season, with all four defeats coming as a favorite of -180 or lower. Hill defeated the Brewers at Miller Park on July 20 by striking out nine batters and scattering five hits in six innings of a 6-3 victory.

Chase Anderson has allowed two earned runs or fewer in seven consecutive starts for Milwaukee, while hitting the UNDER in five straight outings. Anderson picked up a no-decision the last time he faced the Dodgers on June 21, but the Brewers topped Los Angeles, 4-2 to cash as a +150 home underdog. The Brewers have won four straight starts made by Anderson as a ‘dog of +110 or more, but his teams (Milwaukee and Arizona) own a 1-5 record in his last six outings against Los Angeles since 2015.

Betcha didn’t know: Houston ended a five-game losing streak in Tuesday’s 5-2 victory at Seattle. Dallas Keuchel looks to rebound off a loss as a hefty -260 home favorite against Texas in his last start as the Astros have won each of his past four starts away from Minute Maid Park. Keuchel is winless in two starts against Seattle this season, while Mariners’ left-hander Wade LeBlanc is undefeated in nine home starts.

Biggest public favorite: Yankees (-270) vs. Orioles

Biggest public underdog: Rockies (+120) at Cardinals

Biggest line move: Astros (-130 to -145) at Mariners

Wednesday's Top Wager

MLB Preview - Colorado Rockies at St. Louis Cardinals

The Colorado Rockies are right in the middle of the race for both the National League West title and a N.L. wild card spot. They are currently barely on the outside looking in of both spots and need to play well down the stretch to keep pace.

The Rockies have a tough game coming up against the St. Louis Cardinals. Colorado has the superior record but is on the road and could be the underdog. Colorado has been quite good on the road this year and would love to keep that going.

The Cardinals are a couple game above .500 but it would take a huge streak to have a chance at a playoff spot in MLB wagering.

This MLB baseball game will be held at Busch Stadium in St. Louis, Missouri at 8:15 p.m ET on Wednesday, August 1st.

We'll have MLB baseball odds at BookMaker.eu available for every game of the 2018 MLB season.

Odds Analysis

The Rockies have a record of 57-48 overall and a 30-24 mark on the road. Colorado has won seven of its past 10 games but has a negative-four run-differential on the season, which doesn’t bode well down the stretch as the Rockies have outperformed expectations thus far and could come back to earth.

The Cardinals are 54-52 on the season. They have gone 27-25 at home and are basically the epitome of a .500 ballclub.

Probable Pitchers

The Rockies are slated to send Kyle Freeland to the mound. He is 9-6 on the season with a 3.13 ERA and a 1.23 WHIP, which are really nice numbers considering he pitches half the time at Coors Field, the best hitter’s park in the major leagues. Freeland threw six shutout innings last time out in a victory over the A’s and would love to stay hot and shut down the Cardinals.

St. Louis is scheduled to start Luke Weaver, who is 6-9 with a 4.70 ERA. He has been up and down this season but is coming off a fantastic outing. Weaver allowed two runs on a pair of solo homers over six innings last time out in a win over the Cubs.

Trade Ramifications

The Cardinals recently dealt Tommy Pham to the Tampa Bay Rays, which is a sign that the team doesn’t feel like it has enough talent to get into the wild card race down the stretch.

Pham is having a bit of a down year, batting .248 with 14 home runs and 41 RBIs on the season. However, he is coming off a season in which he hit .306 with 23 home runs and a .931 OPS.

The departure of Pham will make the offense less potent down the stretch and will slightly decrease the team’s chances of capturing this contest.

Free MLB ATS Picks

The Rockies have the better pitcher on the hill and have more to play for. Even though the Cardinals have the home field advantage, Colorado is a good play in this one, especially if it is listed as the slight favorites or the underdog.

It has been a hectic season for St. Louis and another loss in this game won’t help that case. The Rockies are one game out of the National League West lead but are behind both the Dodgers and the Diamondbacks. They are only a half-game behind Arizona for the second wild card spot.

Colorado needs every win it can grab and this will be a nice one in MLB gambling.

MLB ATS Pick: Rockies 5, Cardinals 3

*************************

Thursday’s List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud……

13) So I’ve got all my football research material and have been going thru it, getting ready for this season, then comes news that Urban Meyer is on paid administrative lead at Ohio State, so all the information about the Buckeyes goes out the window.

Ohio State’s former WR coach had domestic violence charges against him in 2015; the issue here is whether or not Meyer knew about the incident(s) and did nothing about it.

12) It is obvious from reports that Meyer’s wife knew about the incidents, and if Meyer is found to have lied about not knowing, then Ohio State might be looking for a new coach soon. Might be looking for a new athletic director, too.

August 1 isn’t a great time to put your football coach on administrative leave. Especially when the coach has a 73-8 record at that school.

11) Before Meyer took the Ohio State job, he was on ESPN for a year; I genuinely felt bad for the guy, because he seemed incapable of laughter or lightheartedness. I’m serious when I say this, the guy seemed to have zero sense of humor. It was a little eerie.

Elsewhere…….
10) Johnny Manziel gets the starting nod for the Montreal Alouettes Friday night in Montreal when they play Manziel’s old team, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats,. Hamilton traded Manziel to the Alouettes on July 22.

9) Nationals 25, Mets 4— This was an embarrassment; heads need to roll, either the manager or some players- this team has quit, plain and simple. Inexcusable.

8) Washington must have some serious dissension; they traded reliever Brandon Kintzler because they thought he was leaking info about the team to the press, then they flat out DFA’d Shawn Kelley when he gave up a homer, then threw his glove to the ground like a 10-year old brat. I laughed when I saw it because I’ve never seen a big leaguer do that before.

The home run came in the 9th inning, with the Nationals leading 25-2; go figure.

7) I guess my next question is this; how much do players care about their individual stats? If you read into the Kelley incident at all, seems like he wasn’t interested in mopping up in a 25-1 game, then vented his frustration on national TV when he gave up three runs.

6) Cameron Maybin has been in the major leagues for 12 years; he’s on his 8th team. Seattle has acquired seven new players in trades, since the season started.

5) Giancarlo Stanton’s %age of runners knocked in:
2018: 12.99% (30.9% from 3B)
2017: 18.03% (34.2%)
2016: 13.62% (35.4%)
2015: 19.32% (36.8%)
2014: 16.47% (34.4%)
2013: 13.38% (35.5%)
2012: 15.17% (32.7%)

In other words, despite being healthy, Stanton is having the worst season of his career.

4) Cody Bellinger has played 637⅓ innings at 1B, and 255 innings in CF for the Dodgers this season- this is unusual.

Last major league player with 500+ innings in both 1B, CF in same season was Lee Mazzilli with the Mets in 1980.

3) Wisconsin is the leading producer of cranberries in the United States. Thought you’d like to know.

2) George Springer left Wednesday’s game with shoulder soreness, which means Altuve, Correa and now Springer are all out of the Houston lineup.

1) Texas Rangers were in Phoenix Tuesday when they traded reliever Jake Diekman to the Diamondbacks. Diekman took his bags, went outside the locker room and was driven down to the Arizona locker room in the D’backs’ bullpen cart, driven by Baxter, the team’s mascot.

LEADING OFF: Yanks-Red Sox matchup minus stars, Turner ready
August 1, 2018

A look at what's happening around the majors Thursday:

DEPLETED RIVALRY

The Yankees and Red Sox open a four-game series at Fenway Park with the two best records in the majors, but minus key players.

Chris Sale, who tops the big leagues in strikeouts and leads the AL in ERA, had been scheduled to start for Boston. He went on the disabled list this week because of left shoulder inflammation, so Brian Johnson will pitch in his place. Johnson will face a lineup that's missing Aaron Judge - the New York slugger has a broken wrist after being hit by a pitch last week.

The Red Sox lead the Yankees by 5 1/2 games in the AL East.

HIS TURN-ER

Dodgers sparkplug Justin Turner could come off the disabled list for the series finale at home against Milwaukee. He's been out with a groin injury, and is batting .259 with five home runs and 20 RBIs in an injury-interrupted season.

With Turner at third base, recently acquired Manny Machado would move over to shortstop and settle in with newcomer Brian Dozier at second base.

WANT HIM?

Reliever Shawn Kelley is looking for a job after his tantrum cost him a spot in Washington's bullpen. Kelley was cut Wednesday - a day earlier, he threw his glove to the ground and glared into the dugout after giving up a home run in the ninth inning of a 25-4 romp over the Mets. The 34-year-old righty was 1-0 with a 3.34 ERA in 35 games this season.

''It was a disrespectful act. ... I thought it warranted him leaving the team,'' Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo said.

BACK TO WORK

Astros star Carlos Correa will begin a rehab assignment at Double-A Corpus Christi after missing more than a month with a back injury. He says he expects to play shortstop for the Hooks and hopes the rehab assignment will last only about a week.

Correa has been out since late June with lower back soreness. He is hitting .268 with 13 home runs and 49 RBIs in 73 games for the AL West leaders.

Smooth-fielding shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria is available after being cut by Tampa Bay. The Rays designated him for assignment to open a roster spot for newly acquired outfielder Tommy Pham. The 29-year-old infielder was hitting .258 with three homers and 26 RBIs, and he had lost his starting role to rookie Willy Adames.

LEADING OFF: Yanks-Red Sox matchup minus stars, Turner ready
August 1, 2018

A look at what's happening around the majors Thursday:

DEPLETED RIVALRY

The Yankees and Red Sox open a four-game series at Fenway Park with the two best records in the majors, but minus key players.

Chris Sale, who tops the big leagues in strikeouts and leads the AL in ERA, had been scheduled to start for Boston. He went on the disabled list this week because of left shoulder inflammation, so Brian Johnson will pitch in his place. Johnson will face a lineup that's missing Aaron Judge - the New York slugger has a broken wrist after being hit by a pitch last week.

The Red Sox lead the Yankees by 5 1/2 games in the AL East.

HIS TURN-ER

Dodgers sparkplug Justin Turner could come off the disabled list for the series finale at home against Milwaukee. He's been out with a groin injury, and is batting .259 with five home runs and 20 RBIs in an injury-interrupted season.

With Turner at third base, recently acquired Manny Machado would move over to shortstop and settle in with newcomer Brian Dozier at second base.

WANT HIM?

Reliever Shawn Kelley is looking for a job after his tantrum cost him a spot in Washington's bullpen. Kelley was cut Wednesday - a day earlier, he threw his glove to the ground and glared into the dugout after giving up a home run in the ninth inning of a 25-4 romp over the Mets. The 34-year-old righty was 1-0 with a 3.34 ERA in 35 games this season.

''It was a disrespectful act. ... I thought it warranted him leaving the team,'' Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo said.

BACK TO WORK

Astros star Carlos Correa will begin a rehab assignment at Double-A Corpus Christi after missing more than a month with a back injury. He says he expects to play shortstop for the Hooks and hopes the rehab assignment will last only about a week.

Correa has been out since late June with lower back soreness. He is hitting .268 with 13 home runs and 49 RBIs in 73 games for the AL West leaders.
