    Money Line
    Picked: May 16 @ 10:39am

    Analysis

    The Nationals' offense has been inconsistent, but overall the last two weeks it's hitting a .769 OPS clip vs. right-handers. Chris Bassitt has an 8.27 ERA in four road starts and nearly a 6 ERA in day games, so Washington can keep going here at home. The O's have scored over three runs once in the last eight games, so we'll back Cade Cavalli, who's been better at home and under the sun.

    Spread
    Picked: May 16 @ 1:34pm

    Analysis

    I would also have interest in the F5 here but interestingly enough, Bubba Chandler has been lights out in the first inning and we have to pay a price 30 cents worse there. I'll take the full game run line, and back the Phillies offense to get it done at some point against Chandler, who has found some issues with control, walking 27 batters in 39 innings thus far. He's allowed a .254 average to lefties but the Phillies righties will need to jump on here to make sure we get it done. Nine of Philly's last 14 wins have come by at least two runs and the Pirates weigh in at just a .664 OPS (87 wRC+) against left handed pitchers.

    Picked: May 16 @ 10:43am

    Analysis

    Sandy Alcantara has been a good comeback story for the Marlins, but he's faltering (5.40 ERA last seven starts). His Tampa counterpart, Nick Martinez, might win the AL Cy Young if he keeps up what he's doing. He has a 1.70 ERA through eight starts, and is even better at home and in daytime games. Tampa's OPS in May is over 200 points higher than Miami vs. RHPs. All day on the Rays.

    L. Henderson

    Pitcher Strikeouts
    Picked: May 16 @ 8:15am

    Analysis

    DraftKings. Logan Henderson profiles as one of the top strikeout pitchers amongst starters. In limited big league appearances over two seasons, he’s registered 49 K’s in 38.1 innings, including 16 in 13 innings this season. Built up to about 75 pitches in each of his last two starts, he could be unleashed for 85-90 today. But even if he’s kept at around 75, he should have no issue clearing this line against a weaker Twins lineup. Minnesota has run a 23.8% strikeout rate against righties this season, and almost the exact same rate over the last two weeks (23.7%). The juice is heavy, but I have Henderson at 6.2 Ks - I’d bet this at over 5.5 for a partial unit at +110 or better.

    Money Line
    Picked: May 16 @ 10:50am

    Analysis

    Red Sox LHP Payton Tolle boasts a 1.99 ERA through four starts, but the team is only 1-3 when he starts. He's given up four unearned runs the last two starts. Bryce Elder has been even better (1.81 ERA in nine starts) and the Braves are 6-3 in those games. These respective offenses rank No. 1 and No. 27 in scoring. Boston is 5-10 as an underdog, Atlanta is 25-9 when favored.
