MLB | PHILADELPHIA @ CINCINNATI | 08/15 | 6:40 PM EDT
OVER 9
ANALYSIS: Phillies starter Noah Syndergaard has been terrible since arriving in Philadelphia allowing six runs in 11 IP. Reds starter Mike Minor is arguably the worst starting pitcher in the MLB. Minor has a 1-9 record with a 6.24 ERA. The Phillies offense has been shut out the last two games but that will change against Minor. Take the Over.
MLB | L.A. DODGERS @ MILWAUKEE | 08/15 | 8:10 PM EDT
L.A. DODGERS -1.5
ANALYSIS: The Dodgers' loss on Sunday broke a streak of 12 straight wins, all by at least two runs. Now they get to face the Brewers and starter Freddy Peralta, who has allowed four runs in 8.2 IP since returning from injury. The Dodgers offense should bounce back after being shutout on Sunday. Laying the extra run at -105.

MLB | KANSAS CITY @ MINNESOTA | 08/15 | 7:40 PM EDT
KANSAS CITY +1.5
ANALYSIS: My model says the Royals cover in well over 60 percent of the simulations, so you're getting strong value with them at this number. Kansas City looks to build off Sunday's tremendous performance on the mound as four pitchers combined on a two-hit shutout win against the major league-best Los Angeles Dodgers. The Royals hope for another strong effort from LHP Kris Bubic, who has allowed fewer than three earned runs in four of his last five starts. Minnesota RHP Joe Ryan has yielded six or more runs in two of his past three outings. Take the Royals +1.5 runs at -125.

MLB | ARIZONA @ SAN FRANCISCO | 08/15 | 9:45 PM EDT
ARIZONA +158
ANALYSIS: The Giants have won three straight to get back to .500,, but let’s not get too excited about a sweep of the Pirates. Arizona has won six of the nine meetings this season and has been alternating wins and losses with Madison Bumgarner in his last six starts. The Giants have lost Alex Cobb’s last four starts. Arizona is playing extremely well over its last seven games, scoring 5.4 runs and hitting .261 while allowing opposing hitters only .192. Back Arizona to win Monday.
MLB | N.Y. METS @ ATLANTA | 08/15 | 7:20 PM EDT
N.Y. METS +130
ANALYSIS: The Braves have won six straight, with the last four coming against the Marlins, who haven't scored more than three runs in each of their last 15 games. The Mets keep rolling and have a 5.5-game lead over the Braves in the NL East. They’ve gone 8-4 against the Braves this season won the last two series. New York chased Spencer Strider in the third last week after scoring four runs. The Mets have won Carlos Carrasco’s last seven starts with him allowing just eight runs over that span. Take the Mets to win.

Rotation #924
White Sox +110 over Astros
Cueto/Urquidy
Houston is the best team in baseball and will win their division, but don’t count out the White Sox as they are just a game back of a wild card spot. Chicago has been hot over the weekend and at home has an excellent chance to win tonight as the underdog. The White Sox have been hitting the ball well since the break, and Johnny Cueto is having a great season with an ERA under three runs. Chicago has momentum and a good pitcher on the mound. I like them as the home dog tonight. Take the White Sox.
