4/12 – MLB – Four evening games added to Wednesday’s TTF-based handicapping card

There's two early games on Wednesday's MLB card to keep an eye on.

1:10pm: Twins +120 RH Kyle Gibson (0-0, 5.40 ERA) vs. Tigers -133 RH Michael Fulmer (0-0, 0.00)

Both teams come into this one with 5-2 records.  I see a low scoring game in what should be cold weather in Detroit.  I like the Twins bullpen and their slight +0.003 TTF advantage.  One unit on MIN.

6:10pm: White Sox +218 LH Derek Holland (0-1, 3.00 ERA) vs. Indians -245 RH Danny Salazar (0-0, 6.35)

Big odds in this one and I don't agree.  CWS lost a tough 2-1, 10 inning game yesterday and I see another tight one today.  The big number, plus the +0.769 rating in favor of Chicago has me recommending them for a unit.

3:00pm update - Four evening games added

7:05pm: Reds +144 LH Amir Garrett (1-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Pirates -160 RH Ivan Nova (1-0, 0.00)

I like Adam Duvall (3 HR's) and Cincinnati (5-2) to complete the 3 games series sweep.  TTF matchup rating is +0.908 in favor of CIN.  One unit.

7:07pm: Brewers +205 RH Chase Anderson (0-0, 1.50 ERA) vs. Blue Jays -230 RH Marcus Stroman (1-0, 1.42) 

I feel Toronto (1-6) is extremely overpriced here.  Milwaukee won last night and at this price, and +0.189 TTF match up rating, I recommend them to take the 2 game set for a unit.

8:05pm: Dodgers +114 RH Brandon McCarthy (1-0, 3.00 ERA) vs. Cubs -125 RH John Lackey (1-0, 4.50)

L.A. lost 3-2 to Chicago on Monday (banner night) but I don't think they'll let them celebrate twice again on ring night.  Take the 4-4 Dodgers (+0.442 TTF rating) for one unit.

8:15pm: Athletics +103 RH Andrew Triggs (1-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Royals -113 RH Jason Hammel (0-0, 5.40)

Khris Davis has 4 homers for 4-4 Oakland.  I like the A's here against a struggling Kansas City bullpen, especially with a strong +1.101 TTF match up rating.  One unit.

Good luck, players!
