u7.5 (+104)
The Angels rank 24th in wRC+ over the last two weeks and own the worst walk rate in baseball, while Cleveland has been equally futile offensively, posting a 91 wRC+ over that same stretch.
Neither lineup has shown the consistency to threaten this number, and Los Angeles has gone Under the total in eight of their last 10 games.
CLE -1.5 (+130)
Joey Cantillo's changeup grades at the 88th percentile in run value, and his 95th-percentile extension makes him difficult to square up consistently.
Without a named starter, the Angels figure to deploy their bullpen tonight, and Los Angeles relievers have surrendered home runs at the highest rate in baseball over the last two weeks.

Pete Alonso o0.5 Total Home Runs (+490)
The Polar Bear has treated us well this season, and today vs. Ryan Weathers at +490 is another great spot to hit the Dinger button on the Baltimore swinger. Weathers missed his last start due to an illness and ranks in the bottom 40 among all MLB starters in both BlastCont% and HR/FB rate. There is also a familiarity factor here, as Weathers' last start came against the Orioles, who stacked four runs on him with Pete Alonso taking him deep with a 114mph laser. The fair price for this four-bagger is around +400, per the projections at Covers.

Corbin Carroll o1.5 Total Bases (+115)
Corbin Carroll has historically hit Nathan Eovaldi well, going 5-for-13 against him with a double, triple, and homer. The Diamondbacks star is showing signs of heating up after homering Thursday and doubling Friday. Eovaldi has already surrendered 10 home runs this season, and Carroll’s speed plus extra-base upside makes this prop attractive tonight.
Nathan Eovaldi o5.5 Strikeouts Thrown (+115)
Nathan Eovaldi is starting to find his groove on the mound again. The veteran right-hander has cashed the Over in strikeouts in back-to-back starts, piling up 15 Ks during that span, including eight against the Yankees. Arizona has been striking out frequently lately, and with Eovaldi allowing just one earned run across his last two outings, expect another sharp performance.

u8.5 (-115)
George Kirby has conceded three runs or fewer in seven of eight starts this season, and given up two or less in five straight.
Meanwhile, Petere Lambert has allowed just two runs over his last three starts.
Both starters are limiting hard contact effectively, which should help them keep runs off the board.
HOU +1.5 (-135)
The Houston Astros rank third in wOBA and OPS against right-handed pitching, trailing only the Yankees and Braves in those categories.
They should provide good support for Peter Lambert, who has allowed just six runs through 22.1 innings of work this season.
Look for Houston to keep it close.

u8.0 (-120)
If Brandon Sproat can hold his own early, the Brewers will turn to an excellent bullpen that ranks fifth in xFIP and tied for third in homers allowed per nine innings.
Colder weather and Andre Pallante’s high ground-ball rate (50%) should allow the Cardinals to limit the long ball. That’ll make it difficult to score runs in bulk, helping keep this game Under the total.
MIL (-110)
Brandon Sproat’s xFIP and SIERA are two full runs less than his ERA, suggesting he hasn’t pitched as poorly as it appears on the surface.
Andre Pallante has posted some concerning numbers against lefties (47.2% hard-hit rate, 13.2% barrel rate), and the Brewers have plenty of good ones in their lineup. This mismatch favors the visitors, and we'll take the Brewers on the ML.
