Yankees (Cole) @ Blue Jays (Berrios) 7:07 PM ET

Game# 917-918

Play On: Under 7.0

Gerrit Cole is 6-0 in his last 6 team starts with a dominating 1.59 ERA/0.78 WHIP while recording a better than 9:1 strikeout to walk ratio. Cole has made 3 starts against Toronto this season with a brilliant 0.46 ERA. New York has averaged just 3.3 runs scored per game over their last 7 outings.

Jose Berrios has been in very good form throughout his previous 4 starts while posting a 2.80 ERA/0.93 WHIP and just shy of a 9:1 strikeout to walk ratio. Toronto has played 40-2-2 to the under at home this season with Berrios as their starting pitcher and his stellar 3.11 ERA/1.15 in those outings was a key contributor to the low scoring games. The Blue Jays bullpen has been solid over their last 7 games with a staff 2.84 ERA/1.19 WHIP. Give me this game to go under the total.

Cubs (Stroman) @ Braves (Smith-Shawver) 7:20 PM ET

Game# 957-958

Play On: Over 9.5

Marcus Stroman has been brutal over his last 4 starts while posting a 13.85 ERA/2.77 WHIP and averaging just 3.3 innings pitched per outing. The Cubs bullpen has struggled of late with a staff 5.67 ERA/1.59 WHIP and they allowed an alarmingly high 6 home runs in 27.0 innings. That’s surely concerning when facing the best home run hitting team in baseball the Atlanta Braves who’ve belted 303 home runs this season. The Cubs have gone over the total in 8 of their last 11 games.

A.J. Smith-Shawver has displayed bad form over his last 3 starts while recording a large 7.07 ERA/1.50 WHIP while also allowing 7 homers in just 14.0 innings pitched. Atlanta has gone over the total in 18 of their last 22 games. They’ve also played 12-1 to the over on Thursdays this season and 24-6 over when facing NL Central Division teams. The Braves have also seen their last 4 versus the Cubs all go over the total and there was a combined average of 12.0 runs scored per game. Give me this game to go over the total.

Red Sox (Sale) @ Orioles (Kremer) 6:35 PM ET

Game# 965-966

Play On: Orioles -125

Chris Sale is still a very good starting pitcher but certainly not the dominant force he once was. As a matter of fact, during his 3 starts versus Baltimore this season Salle had an awful 13.50 ERA/2.25 WHIP and gave up 5 homers in 12.0 innings pitched.  The Red Sox are only averaging 3.0 runs scored per game throughout their previous 7 outings. The Red Sox are an abysmal 7-21 in their last 28 games and that includes a current 4-game losing streak.

Conversely, Baltimore has won 4 in a row and is on the cusp of clinching the AL East title. Additionally, Baltimore is 36-17 this season when facing left-handed starting pitcher like Chris Sale. I’m not crazy about Orioles starter Dean Kremer, but Baltimore is 15-3 at home this season when’s he’s their starting pitcher. Give me the Orioles on the money line.

Lions @ Packers 8:15 ET

Game# 101-102

Play On: Lions -122 (Money Line)

Detroit is 3-0 SU&ATS in their last 3 games versus their division rival Green Bay Packers. The Packers are averaging a deceiving 26.3 points per game when considering their mere 297.7 total yards per contest. Both teams enter this contest with a 2-1 record. However, Detroit is at +84.0 total yards per game and Green Bay is at -38.6 yards per contest. Which tells me the Lions are deserving of their winning record while Green Bay has been a tad bit lucky.

Green Bay is coming off an 18-7 win over New Orleans as a 1.5-point home underdog. The Packers needed to overcome a 4th quarter deficit of 17-0 to earn that victory. Green Bay has rushed for 95 yards or fewer in each of their 3 games while Detroit has allowed 90 yards or fewer on the ground during each of their contests. Couple those numbers with the fact that Packers starting quarterback Jordan Love is completing only 53.1% of his passes on the season, and this doesn’t shape up to be a favorable matchup for Green Bay.

Any NFL away team like Detroit that has a win percentage of .562 or better, versus an opponent like Green Bay that’s coming off a home underdog SU win by 4 points or fewer in which they scored 13 points or more and they have a win percentage of .600 or better, resulted in those away teams going 10-0 SU and 9-0-1 ATS since 1990. The average line for those 10 away teams was -1.0 and the average margin of victory was 14.6 points per game. Give me the Lions as a money line wager.
