MLB
Chicago White Sox at Cleveland 7:10 pm
Lynn vs McKenzie

PICK: CLE -130
1 star

Cleveland has now taken over sole possession of first place in the AL Central

Lance Lynn going tonight for the Sox. Cleveland counters with Tristan McKenzie

Lynn has allowed 14 runs over his last 2 starts at Cleveland. He got the loss in both games

Chicago is 2-7 in Lynn’s last 9 road starts. Opponents are batting .324 vs Lynn on the road this season

McKenzie for CLE, comes into this game with a 2.81 ERA at home.

He’s had 2 starts vs CHW this season and allowed just 2 runs on 5 hits combined in those starts

This White Sox roster batting just .212 lifetime vs McKenzie

Chicago bullpen a 7.63 over the last 10 games

I am going to back Cleveland here in this one

MLB
San Francisco at Colorado 8:40 pm
Wood vs Urena

PICK: SF -155
1 star

Alex Wood starts for SF.

Wood has a 2.93 ERA over his last 7 starts.

He pitches well against Colorado. Wood is 2-0 with a 2.63 ERA in his last 5 vs the Rockies

This Colorado roster is slugging just .368 vs Wood

Jose Urena for the Rockies is 1-4 with a 5.70 ERA over his last 7 starts

Urena has a 5.40 ERA at home this season and opponents are batting .294 vs the Rockies right hander at Coors Field this year

The Giants are 8-1 in their last 9 visits to Coors Field

SF also 9-2 their last 11 as a favorite and are 20-7 as a favorite over the last 27 when Wood starts

Colorado 0-4 their last 4 following a loss and are 0-6 in Urena’s last 6 starts vs the NFL West

All of this and a bad Colorado bullpen. I will take the Giants tonight
