00:00Right. Diamondbacks in the Marlins. Diamondbacks coming off a rough weekend at Tampa.

00:03They stay in Florida. They go to South Beach into Miami. Brandon Fott will go for them tonight.

00:08Adam Oller goes for the fish. Minus 205 for the Diamondbacks, plus a buck 70 for Miami,

00:16and an eight and a half. So look, you know, Tampa swept them because Tampa's a better team

00:21than the Marlins, okay? So Tampa was able to sleep. You know, Arizona take care of them at

00:29the drop. This is a different story entirely, Mike. They're playing the fish, and they're

00:35literally, I mean, they're one of the most embarrassing teams in baseball. They're not

00:40the White Sox, but they're the next best thing. So Arizona's just flat out too good for them.

00:45They'll get right tonight with Fott, the win in Miami. I agree with you. The Reds are north of

00:52the border into Toronto to see the Blue Jays. It'll be Kevin Gosman for the Jays. Julian Aguilar

00:59is making his Major League debut for Cincinnati tonight, Scottie. Right now, minus 160 for

01:05Toronto, plus a buck 35 for the Jays, and an eight and a half. This kid's not beating Gosman

01:12in Toronto. I'm run lining the Jays at plus a buck 30. Orioles at Citi Field against the Mets,

01:20so the Mets could do the Yankees some help here over the next couple of days, Scottie. David

01:25Peterson and Trevor Rodgers for the O's. Right now, minus 135 for the Mets, plus 115 for Baltimore,

01:34and an eight and a half. I'm still trying to figure out why the Orioles went and got Rodgers,

01:40to be honest with you. I guess because he's a left-hander, but he never won in Miami,

01:44and he hasn't won in Baltimore yet. He gets lit up every time he pitches his ZRAs around eight,

01:50so they're going to get their ass beat again tonight. Peterson's been great for the Mets,

01:55seven and one, and give me a Lindor pop, and let's get the Mets back winning again here.

02:03I like him at Citi Field tonight. I really do, and not only that, I like Peterson on the run line

02:10at plus about 58. I know it sounds crazy, but I really like to match the Mets against Rodgers.

02:14I think Rodgers is hairdryer city. Yeah, we do got a lot of guys on the Mets, Scottie,

02:18who obviously have seen Rodgers from him being with the Marlins before he was in Baltimore,

02:24so we do have one of those guys featured in Tater Time in a couple of minutes. Pirates are in

02:29Arlington against the Rangers. It'll be Louis Ortiz tonight. Dane Dunning will go for Texas,

02:35who's minus 160, plus 135 for the Buccos, and an eight and a half.

02:42Yeah, I think they'll screw this up down in Globe. I think Texas is the buy here over the Pirates.

02:50Their last trip was disastrous. They lost 10 straight games. Then they go home and play,

02:56what, three games? Now they're on the road again? I mean, Christ, how many road games they got?

03:01I know the next game is Kansas City. I just want you to know they're at home tonight,

03:05and Lugo's been getting torched lately, Mike. I think he's lost five of seven starts. He's,

03:11ERA's ballooned in those games over five and a half, and the last time he faced the Angels was

03:18in May, and he struck out 12 in eight innings of work, but he seems like he's hit a wall.

03:22I did bet on them this morning on the run line. I took the Royals here.

03:26Yeah, Royals are going to have Lugo going tonight. Carson Fulmer goes for the Angels,

03:33which makes it even more appealing to go for Kansas City. Right now, though,

03:37heavy lumber, minus 240, plus 200 for the Angels, and an eight and a half.

03:43I've seen that price for that run line go up to a buck and a quarter. I didn't pay that. I think

03:50I had it at minus 110 this morning. It opened at plus 110 and went to minus 110. Now it's minus a

03:58buck and a quarter. Everybody's betting on Lugo, but it's, I guess, dangerous. The way he's pitched

04:03lately has been terrible. The guy, you remember, he went to the All-Star Game with the same amount

04:09of wins. I mean, the guy just has done nothing in his last seven starts. Indeed, he has not.

04:16The Red Sox are in Houston against the Astros. Tanner Howe tonight against Kikuchi

04:23on the hill for the Stros. Right now, minus 155 for Houston, plus 130 for the Red Sox,

04:30and another eight and a half. Kikuchi's been really good for the Astros. That's why they

04:35got him, and he's come through for them. He's won a couple starts, and his ERA's been around 2-7.

04:41I like the Astros tonight. Again, they're playing good baseball. They're doing everything right.

04:46They're winning, and they finished the sweep at Fenway of the Red Sox, so they kicked their ass

04:51up in Boston. Now they're home at Minute Maid. We got four games on the left coast tonight,

04:57some late-night action. The Twins are in San Diego at Petco for the soft-serve ice cream.

05:02Zebby Matthews goes for the Twins. Michael King for the Padres, who are minus 160, plus a buck 35

05:11for Minnie, and a seven and a half. Look, I don't think it's going to be easy, but I like King. I

05:17think he's been good for the Friars, and I like him on the run line tonight at plus a buck 35.

05:23Give me San Diego at home at Petco over to Twins. Tampa heading west as they will be at the dump in

05:31Oakland to open up a series. Taj Bradley and Joe Boyle, the law firm of Bradley and Boyle,

05:37minus 130 for Tampa, plus 110 for Oakland, and a seven and a half. I bet the over this morning

05:45at even money, and I still like it, over seven and a half. A lot of money on that over here,

05:51because both of these guys, let's face facts, I mean, at least Boyle gives up runs. I mean,

05:59that's it. He comes out and pitches and just gets, I mean, he just gives up two runs an inning.

06:04He certainly does. I hope he does the same thing tonight. The White Sox are across the bay

06:08in San Francisco at Oracle against the Giants. It'll be Jonathan Cannon and Kyle Harrison

06:15tonight, minus 240 for San Fran, plus two bills for the White Sox, and a seven and a half.

06:22Yeah, I'm on Harrison and the Giants here. The White Sox are awful. We all know that. Who doesn't

06:28beat them? Harrison at home at Oracle, a giant run lined it at minus about 10. I don't mind that

06:35price at all. Give me San Francisco to get it done by a couple or more runs. And finally,

06:42the Dodgers head home. Seattle heads west. They're on a long road trip, and they got one more stop

06:48in LA against the Dodgers. Brian Wu tonight against Gavin Stone,

06:53minus 135 for LA, plus a buck 15 for Seattle, and an eight and a half.

06:58I like the under in this one. Both of these guys, I think Wu-Tang Clan and Stone, both low

07:05ERAs. They don't give up a lot of runs. Give me the under and the Dodgers at the ravine.
