05 July 20:10 Houston Astros v Colorado Rockies

I won’t overthink this one but the Astros are not only the better team but they have all the momentum heading into this matchup. The Rockies have lost their last 9 away games and after this, it will be 10. 

Chase Anderson has been horrible in his last 3 games, in his last game against the Dodgers he pitched for 3.2 innings and he allowed 6 runs, before that, he allowed the Angels to get 9 runs in 2.2 innings! This is a no-brainer, go with the Astros to him at home here.

06 July 01:05 Washington Nationals v Cincinnati Reds

Last night we looked at the pitching and the over was the bet to take. The pitching for the third game there is no big difference, the over is the bet to take here. When you look at the starting pitchers, Josiah Gray has an ERA of 3.30 and WHIP is 1.38, Graham Ashcraft has an ERA of 6.66 and WHIP is 1.59. 

The Reds are the better team no doubt but they don’t have a better pitcher for this game, while the Nats won’t fail to register runs. Both teams will score just like they did last night bringing the over.

06 July 01:40 Minnesota Twins v Kansas City Royals

I’m going for the sweep here.  Minnesota has proved in the last two games that they are superior, winning all their games whilst covering the spread. Minnesota is not known for their batting but they are averaging 12 hits per game during this series. 

Alec Marsh will be starting for the Royals and he has an ERA of 11.25 and WHIP is 2.50. This is a game the Twins come out on top, take them to win.

06 July 01:10 Cleveland Guardians v Atlanta Braves

The Braves finally lost last night bringing their winning streak to an end, but even though they lost last night they still managed to score 5 runs. They lost last night in the extra inning but that won’t be the case here. 

The Braves are the better team, they can really hit the ball and have registered 790 hits this season with Cleveland registering 720. The Braves are heading into the All-star break as the team that leads in home runs at 163, which is really impressive because their closest competitor are the Dodgers, who only have 135 home runs. 
Cal Qantrill is currently 0-4 in his last games, after this, it will be 5 losses in his last 5 games, take Atlanta to win this one.
