Braves-Nationals – PITCHING MATCHUP: Braves RH Mike Foltynewicz (4-5, 3.48 ERA) vs. Nationals RH Stephen Strasburg (7-2, 2.80)
The OVER in this series is 7-0 in Washington and 15-5 in the last 25 meetings between these two teams.
The OVER is 6-1 in Strasburg’s last 7 home starts vs. Braves.
This one opened with a total of 8 and has climbed to 9, thus providing a great temptation for gamblers to bet the UNDER.
This series has resulted in 9 or more total runs in half of the last ten games.
Foltynewicz beat Philadelphia 14-1 last time out, tossing seven scoreless innings for the second straight outing to register his seventh quality start of the season and has recorded 14 strikeouts over his last two starts.
Strasburg notched his fifth straight quality start last time out, when he surrendered two runs - one earned - and three hits over six innings in a 2-1 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The Nationals are 9-4 in their last 13 games vs. a right-handed starter and 12-4 in their last 16 after scoring 2 runs or less in their previous game.
The OVER is 16-6 in Foltynewiczs’ last 22 starts overall and 33-15-4 in Strasburg’s last 52 home starts.
Cubs-Mets - PITCHING MATCHUP: Cubs RH John Lackey (4-6, 5.12 ERA) vs. Mets RH Jacob deGrom (4-3, 4.75)
Both pitchers have had poor starts in their recent games.
The Cubs are 2-9 in the last 11 meetings and 0-6 in New York against the Mets.
Yankees-Angels - PITCHING MATCHUP: Yankees RH Masahiro Tanaka (5-6, 6.55 ERA) vs. Angels RH Alex Meyer (2-3, 4.08)
The UNDER is 8-1-2 in the last 11 meetings.
Tanaka has been in a downward spiral, surrendering five or more runs on four occasions while losing five straight starts after reeling off five wins in a row. Tanaka has yet to lose to the Angels, going 1-0 while allowing only four runs over 21 innings in three career starts.
Meyer is coming off back-to-back outings in which he gave up one run over six innings but failed to record a victory, going 0-1 for his efforts.
He is 1-0 with a 2.25 ERA in three starts at home this year.
The UNDER is 10-4 in Yankees last 14 vs. American League West.
The UNDER is 5-1 in the Angels last 6 games following a win and 19-4-4 in Angels last 27 vs. American League East.
Seven of the last ten games in this series have resulted in 7 or fewer runs.
These pitchers will be desperate for victories here so go with the UNDER 8.5. The number opened at 9.
