u10.5 (+100)
While the Cubs should find success against Ray, the Giants may struggle to contribute enough offense to threaten this total. Chicago's bullpen has been excellent lately, posting a 3.20 FIP while limiting power, and San Francisco owns just a .157 ISO on the road this season.
CHC -1.5 (+120)
The Cubs draw a favorable matchup against Robbie Ray, who owns a 5.85 FIP, 6.24 SIERA, and 10.13 BB/9 across his last two starts. Chicago has been squaring up the baseball lately, while Edward Cabrera's strong underlying numbers should help limit San Francisco's offense.

u8.0 (-110)
It's been an up-and-down year for Framber Valdez, but he should be just fine vs. a Mariners lineup that's dead-last in OPS vs. lefties this season. The Tigers are not much better vs. righties (22nd) and face Bryan Woo, who's surrendered just six earned runs over his last 29 2/3 frames.

CLE (-130)
You can't win if you can't score, and the Rangers' 24th-ranked lineup by OPS will be hard-pressed to put runs on the board here. Parker Messick has allowed only six earned runs over his last 28 innings, and the Guardians bullpen is second by xFIP over the last two weeks.

COL (+135)
Brandon Sproat's ERA is above 6.00 in no small part because he's walking half the ballpark whenever he pitches (15th percentile in BB%). His 32nd-percentile hard-hit rate will get him into all kinds of trouble in Coors Field, and his bullpen (22nd in xFIP across the past two weeks) will just add gasoline to the fire.
