Sports Handicapper Ray Monohan's Picks & Predictions

Cubs -138

Chicago and Minnesota open the second half of the season in Wrigley and the value is on the Cubs. Chicago sends out Colin Rea, who has won his last two starts while also pitching well over his last 4. He is settling in nicely to this rotation and has consistency given them 5 or more strong innings. Ober counters and this is just his 2nd start back from the IL. The Cubs offense is very deep and they tend to really make pitchers work. That won’t bode well for Ober, who throws a lot of pitches to begin with and will struggle against this lineup. Back the Cubs.

Friday 4* MLB ML Play

Angels +103

The Angels and Tigers clash and we are on the Angels ML. Los Angeles sends out Reid Detmers, who has had his name thrown around in the trade rumors. Detmers will be auditioning over the next few weeks and this is a good matchup for him against a very aggressive lineup. Detroit has struggled on the road this season going just 17-29 and send out Melton. He’s pitched well since jumping into the rotation, but this is a tough spot for him starting the 2nd half off on the road. Detroit’s offense has struggled giving pitchers support away from home and this game will be no different. Back Los Angeles.

Friday 3* MLB ML Play

UNDER 7.5

Cleveland and Pittsburgh have value to the under. Gavin Williams will get the nod for Cleveland and he enters Friday with 10 wins and a solid ERA of just 3.81. He’s allowed 3 runs or less in 4 straight starts and he’s consistently working deep into games. Pittsburgh counters with Jared Jones, who threw 6.0 scoreless innings last time out. He’s found something as of late and he goes up against a Cleveland offense that has been incredibly inconsistent. This is a game where scoring chances will be at a premium. Back the under.

Friday 2* MLB O/U Play

Mariners -153

Seattle is worth a free move in the spot. They send out Bryce Miller, who owns an ERA of 2.18 so far this season. He has been consistent when it comes to not allowing big innings and he’s working deep into games. Landen Roupp is just 6-8 and owns an ERA of over 4 so far this season. This has been a disaster year for the Giants and they’re already known to be in sell mode as they have struggled as a whole. This is a great spot on Seattle. Back the Mariners. Locking this in early.
