Tonight the National League Central will meet the National League West as the St Louis Cardinals pay a visit to Chase Field to take on the Arizona Diamondbacks in game one of their four game series. The Cardinals have won the last five games here at Arizona, while the Under is 8-3-2 the last 13 games in the series.

A Look At The St Louis Cardinals


The St Louis Cardinals are off to a nice start after, but prior to Sunday’s game vs the Padres they had lost four of their last seven games. The Cardinals have been a solid team in day games this year, but at night they are just 4-6 so far. In their last game they had won easily at San Diego, taking that game by a score of 11-2. The Cardinals have been a strong offensive team thus far this year, but they did score just seven total runs in their four games prior to putting up an 11 spot at Petco Park. Yadier Molina leads the team in hitting at .344, but has yet to hit a homer. The HR leader on the team is rookie Jeremy Hazelbaker with four, while Matt Carpenter leads them in RBIs with 12, but he is hitting just .226 so far.

The Cardinals come in ranked 2nd in the league in scoring, putting up 6.06 rpg, while also ranking 4th in hitting at .271 and 3rd in homers with 26. On the mound the Cards have been decent as they come in ranked 11th in the league in ERA at 3.63, while also ranking 12th in WHIP at 1.25 and 17th in Ks with 138. Cardinal starters come in with an ERA of 4.24, while their pen has an ERA of 2.37. Taking the hill for St Louis will be Jaime Garcia, who is 1-1 with a 2.70 ERA in three starts this year. Last year he was 10-6 with a 2.43 ERA in 20 starts, including 5-4 with a 3.25 ERA in the road. Garcia is a perfect 5-0 with a 2.51 ERA in five career starts vs the Diamondbacks, including 3-0 with a 1.62 ERA in three starts here at Chase Field.

A Look At The Arizona Diamondbacks


The Diamondbacks got off to a slow start this year, but they have won six of their previous seven games prior to taking on the Pirates on Sunday. Their recent run has them sitting just a game and a half out of first place in the National League West. This was a team that was expected to challenge for the division title and they are now showing why as they are starting to get the pitching to complement their very solid offense. Jean Segura leads the offense, hitting .346 with three homers and 11 RBIs so far. Paul Goldschmidt needs to wake up some as he is hitting just .246 with three homers and 12 RBIs. Leading the team in homers is Welington Castillo, who has five of them.  

The Diamondbacks come in ranked 8th in the league in scoring, putting up 4.58 rpg, while also ranking 6th in hitting at .262 and 4th in homers with 25. On the mound Arizona comes in ranked 20th in the league in ERA at 4.15, while also ranking 20th in WHIP at 1.37 and 13th in Ks with 140. Arizona starters have an ERA of 4.99, while their pen has an ERA of 3.01. Getting the call for the Diamondbacks will be Zack Greinke, who is off  two solid starts in a row as he has allowed just three ERs on 12 hits in 14 innings of work in a 3-2 no-decision win over the Padres and a 2-1 win over the Giants. Both were on the road, but this one is at home where he has struggled so far, going 0-2 with a 9.90 ERA in two starts. Greinke is now 6-4 with a 4.25 ERA in 12 career starts here at Chase Field and he is 9-4 with a 3.03 ERA in 15 games (13 starts) in his career vs the Cardinals.

I like the Cardinals in a small upset here. Jaime Garcia has yet to lose to Arizona in his career, while Greinke has been horrible in his two home starts so far this year. He pitched well in both his road starts, but they were at San Diego and San Francisco, which are not hitters parks like Chase Field is.and he will be taking on one of the best offenses in the league in this one.  Overall both offenses are strong, but still the Cards have a bit more pitching in this one, especially in their pen, which has a 1.,47 ERA on the road, while the D-Backs have a 4.97 pen ERA at home. The Cards are 9-2 their last 11 vs the NL West, while the Diamondbacks are 2-12 their last 14 vs the NL Central and 8-20 their last 28 home games vs a southpaw. Good spot for the Cards to pick up a big road win.

Cleveland Indians vs Detroit Tigers Sunday MLB Betting Preview & Free Pick

MLB Preview:Cleveland Indians vs Detroit Tigers
Written By David Hess (Follow me on Twitter @DavidHess311)


When: 1:10 PM ET, Sunday April 24, 2016
Where: Comerica Park in Detroit, Michigan
Lines: Cleveland -165/ Detroit +155
Total: 8.5 (u20)

Right now I have 3 MLB plays ready to go for just $10.00. 23-13 my last 36 MLB play so jump on board now.   Click Here To Get The Action***


A couple of American League Central foes will hook up today as the Cleveland Indians take on the Detroit Tigers in game three of their three game series from Comerica Park in Detroit. The Indians won a pitcher’s duel in game one 2-1 and they have now won four of the last five meetings in this series overall.

A Look At The Cleveland Indians


The Tribe took game one of this series 2-1 behind a solid game from Josh Tomlin, who allowed just the one ER on four hits in 6.2 innings of work. He is now 2-0 on the year. The win got the Indians back to .500 for the year at 7-7, which includes a mark of 4-2 on the road. Francisco Lindor leads the team in hitting at .296, while Mike Napoli and Carlos Santana each have three homers and nine RBIs to lead the team in both categories. Lonnie Chisenhall is finally off the DL, but has just one hit in 11 ABs so far. He will get it going, plus they Tribe are still waiting for Michael Brantley to come off the DL and this offense should be much improved when that happens.
Overall the Indians check in at 16th in the league in scoring putting up 3.93 rpg, while also ranking 22nd in hitting at .234 and 21st in homers with 14. On the mound they have been average as they come in at 18th in ERA at 4.18, 6th in WHIP at 1.19 and 28th in Ks with 114. Indian starters have an ERA of 3.92, while their pen has an ERA of 4.68. Getting the start in this game for the Tribe will be Carlos Carrasco, who is 2-0 with a 2.79 ERA in three starts so far. Last year he was 14-12 with a 3.63 ERA 30 starts, including 9-4 with a 2.49 ERA on the road. He is 4-6 with a 6.29 ERA in 15 games (10 starts) vs the Tigers in his career, including 2-4 with an 8.42 ERA here at Comerica. Carrasco is not much for pitching in daytime as he is 8-13 with a 5.04 ERA in 34 day games (27 starts).  

A Look At The Detroit Tigers


The Detroit Tigers come in having lost four of their five games prior to saturday, but they have to be a little encouraged at the 2-1 loss that Verlander took, in game that he pitched well in. Still he is now just 1-2 with a 5.790 ERA on the year. The pitching has been decent overall for them this year, but still the are led by an offense that ranks 9th in the league in scoring putting up 4.53 rpg, while also ranking 5th in hitting at .264 and 11th in homers with 18. Ian Kinsler is the team’s leading hitter so far at .358, plus he has four homers and 12 RBIs. Jarrod Saltalamacchia leads the team in both homers (five) and RBIs (14). Miguel Cabrera is off to a slow start as he is hitting just .220 with one homer and six RBIs so far.

On the mound they have been decent as they come in at 10th in ERA at 3.59, 25th in WHIP at 1.41 and 29th in Ks with 109. Tiger starters have an ERA of 4.10, while their pen has been very solid, posting an ERA of 2.72. This is a team has not gotten good play from their pen the last few years. The Tigers will send out Shane Greene in this one and he is 1-1 with a 7.84 in his two starts this year. Last year as a starter he was 4-8 with a 6.72 ERA in 16 starts. Green is 1-1 with a 9.00 ERA in two career starts vs the Indians, while in 14 career Day starts he is 5-5 with a 4.42 ERA.

This is a tough one as Carrasco has bad numbers vs the Tigers, but he has very good numbers on the road overall in his career. Last year he was 9-4 away from home and is 21-15 on the road in his career, compared to just 14-23 at home. Shane Greene has been a bad pitcher overall in his career and he has a 9.00 ERA out the gate. I just can’t back him, so I will look for the Tribe to pick up another big road win here.

Arizona Diamondbacks vs Los Angeles Dodgers Thursday MLB Preview & Free Pick

MLB Preview: Arizona Diamondbacks vs Los Angeles Dodgers
Written By David Hess (Follow me on Twitter @DavidHess311)


When: 10:10 PM ET, Thursday April 14, 2016
Where: Dodgers Stadium in Los Angeles, California
Lines: Los Angeles -137/ Arizona +127
Total: 7.5 (u20)

Right now I have 3 MLB plays ready to go for just $10.00. 5-1 my last 6 MLB play so jump on board now.  I have also gone 28-14-3 my last 45 NHL plays and will have at least 1 play up by 4pm  EST, for just $2.00  Click Here To Get The Action***

A Look At The Arizona Diamondbacks


The Arizona Diamondbacks are off to a slow 3-5 start to the year, but they do come in off a 4-2 road loss over these Dodgers on Tuesday night. The offense has really been average for this team so far as they come in ranked 14th in hitting at .260, 13th in scoring at 4.62 rpg and 6th in homers with 10. They have scored just 8 total runs in their last 3 games, after scoring 34 runs in their first four games. Jean Segura has had a great start for his new team as he comes in hitting .387 with three homers and five RBIs, while Paul Goldschmidt has three homers as well so far with nine RBIs and his is hitting a decent .267 as well.  
The biggest reason for the slow start has been a pitching staff that comes in ranked 28th in the league in ERA at 6.00 and 28th in WHIP at 1.56. So far their starters have a combined 7.06 ERA, while the pen has a 4.04 ERA so far, so it has been the whole staff that has struggled.

Toeing the rubber for the Diamondbacks will be Robbie Ray, who had a no-decision in his 1st start of the year, which was a 3-2 Arizona win over Chicago. Last year he was 5-12 with a 3.52 ERA in 23 starts for Arizona, including 4-6 with a 2.49 ERA in 12 roads. Ray is 2-2 with a 2.28 ERA in four career starts vs the Dodgers, including 1-1 with a 1.42 ERA in two starts here at Dodgers Stadium.

A Look At The Los Angeles Dodgers


The Dodgers came into this series off a bad four game set with the Giants in which they lost three of the four game, while being outscored 26-17 in the process. and lost three of them. That series followed a three game series vs the Padres in which they outscored them 25-0 in the three games. The staff that allowed zero runs to the Padres, allowed 26 runs in their 4 games vs the Giants. The Dodgers still have some solid numbers overall as they come in ranked 13th in the league in ERA at 3.80 and 2nd in WHIP at 1.04. So do the Dodgers really miss Greinke?

I would say not especially with rookies Ross Stripling and Kenta Maeda in the mix this year, plus of course Clayton Kershaw and new addition Scott Kazmir. Getting the start for the Dodgers will be Ross Stripling, who had a great 1st start of his career last time out as he threw 7.1 innings of no-hit ball before getting pulled and they eventually the Dodgers lost the game. Last year at AA Tulsa he was 3-6 with a 3.88 ERA in 13 starts.Offensively they have been very solid top start the year as they rank 5th in scoring at 6.0 rpg and 5th in hitting at 2.88 ERA.

The Dodgers are not playing great baseball after a hot start and they took a loss in game one, but still they are 15-4 their last 19 home games in this series. The Dodgers offense has struggled some of late, but they should get back on track here even though Robbie Ray has had good success on the road and vs the Dodgers in his brief career. I say the Dodgers take this one.

Chicago Cubs vs Arizona Diamondbacks Sunday MLB Preview & Free Pick

MLB Preview:Chicago Cubs vs Diamondbacks
Written By David Hess (Follow me on Twitter @DavidHess311)


When: 4:10 PM ET, Sunday April 10, 2016
Where: Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona
Lines: Chicago -180/ Arizona +170
Total: 8 (u15)

Right now I have 5 MLB plays ready to go for just $10.00. Bases are heating up so jump on board now.  *** Baseball Specials***--- Daily Package $10.00... Weekly Package $35.00= $5.00 a Day... Monthly Package $60.00= $2.00 a Day...  Click Here To Get The Action***


A little National League baseball today between the Chicago Cubs and the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field in Arizona. This is game four of a four game series. The Cubs took game one by a score of 14-6 and Arizona took game two by a score of 4-3. Chicago is 4-1 the last five games in this series.

Last year the Cubs were led mostly by their pitching, and now this year their hitting has caught up. Last year the Cubs ranked 29th in the league in hitting (.244) and they were 15th in runs scored (689), but so far after four games they are tops in the league in scoring (7.75 rpg) and 10th in hitting (.271). If this offense remains for real then the Cubs will be very tough to beat for most of this year. They are a very complete team, but they did lose a part of that offense on Friday when Kyle Schwarber, who had 16 Homers in just 69 games last year, was lost for the season. Still this is a very deep team and they will find away to get around his loss.
The pitching for the Cubs ranked 3rd in the league in ERA last year and 1st in K’s and while they are just 20th in Ks so far, they are also 4th in ERA (2.52) and 1st in WHIP (0.81). Getting the start in this game will be Jake Arrieta, who is off a year in which he won the Cy Young award. He started this year off in fine fashion as he beat the Angels 9-0, allowing just two hits in seven innings of work. Last year he was 22-6 with a 1.77 ERA overall, including 13-1 with a 1.60 ERA on the road. In his career vs the Diamondbacks he has gone 1-1 with a 2.63 ERA in three starts and he is 19-17 with a 3.37 ERA in day games in his career.  

The Arizona Diamondbacks have been picked by many to be a player in the NL West, but that just won’t happen until they get their pitching in order. Arizona was to have help this year on their staff when they brought in Zack Greinke from the Dodgers, but he was hit hard in his first game, allowing seven ERs on nine hits in just four innings of work. That may have been the worst start of his career. As a team the Diamondbacks are now 27th in the league in ERA at 7.00 and 25th in WHIP at 1.56. That is worse than last years rankings of 17th in ERA (4.04) and 21st in WHIP (1.33) They have taken on two very good offensive teams in the early going in the Cubs and Rockies, so we will see if they can get it together vas the season goes on.

For this game the Diamondbacks will send out Shelby Miller, who was 6-17 with a 3.02 ERA in 33 starts for the Braves last year. Including 3-8 with a 3.67 ERA on the road. Despite his bad year, he was still invited to the All-Star game. He had a very strong year ERA wise, but just couldn’t get much run support from his mates. This year in his first start he got 11 runs worth of support as his team beat the Rockies 11-6, but he got a no-decision and didn’t pitch well in the game, allowing six ERs on eight hits in just six innings of work. Miller is 1-2 with a 2.83 ERA in seven games (Six starts) in his career vs the Cubs. The offense has not been a problem for Arizona so far as they come in ranked 10th in scoring at 5.60 rpg and 5th in hitting at .288.

Hard to go against Arrieta, who has just been dominant, especially on the road. The Cubs offense has been very hot so far and will take aim at Miller, who was hit very hard in his debut for the Diamondbacks. With the way the Chicago offense is rolling, the way that Arrieta has pitched on the road, plus the way the Arizona pitching staff is struggling, this is a nice spot to play the road team on the runline. Cubs roll here.
