2 Picks.
3:07PM EST: NYM/TOR Under 7.5 (3 Units).
NYM SP Sean Manaea has a 2.81 ERA in his last 8 starts. He just allowed more than 3 runs (4) for the first time after allowing 3 runs or less in 8 straight and 13 of his last 14 starts. There were 2 outs in the top of the 7th when he allowed a 2 run HR, bringing it to 4ER. The Blue Jays lineup is horrendous against LHP, with just 2 hitters in today's lineup with an OPS above .684. One of the 2 is a rookie with 5 at bats vs LHP. TOR SP Bowden Francis has a 1.56 ERA in 7 games (6 starts) since August. He's recorded 5 straight quality starts and this Mets offense has scored just 10 runs in their last 4 games combined.
3:40PM EST: Rangers F5 Innings ML +125 (2 Units).
TEX SP Cody Bradford has a 2.88 ERA in his last 7 starts and has thrown 5 straight quality starts. He's allowed 2ER or less in 5 of his last 6 and 3ER in the outlier. The Diamondbacks have just 5 career at bats vs Bradford. AZ SP Merrill Kelly came off the IL in early August and posted a 6.75 ERA in his 4 starts last Month. He opened September with a 2 run 7-inning performance @ SF but was a bit lucky as he still surrendered 11 Hard-Hit balls. That Giants lineup isn't very good, and Oracle Park is among the most pitcher friendly, whereas Chase Field is among the most hitter friendly. The Rangers offense is also averaging just shy of 5 runs per game this Month too.
