    Analysis

    Ezequiel Duran is the textbook definition of a super utility player. He has played every position on the diamond except pitcher and catcher this season and has hit in every spot in the lineup for Texas except leadoff. Lately, he has been batting third for the Rangers and is up to a career-high 55 RBIs. Since the All-Star Break, Duran has at least two total bases in 6 of 9 games and looks to be a key part of the Texas lineup going forward. In his career, Duran is surprisingly 10 of 19 (.526) against Mariners starter George Kirby. At +155 odds, I can't resist taking a shot on the utility man to post another fine game on Monday afternoon.

    Bases
    Picked: Jul 26 @ 11:48pm

    Analysis

    Who would've predicted C.J. Abrams to lead the Major Leagues in RBIs on July 27th? Definitely not me! But the Nationals' shortstop and cleanup hitter has been on an incredible tear since the All-Star Break, having totaled 19 hits including 7 home runs in nine games. He has hit for at least two total bases in seven straight games and 8 of 9 since the break. Expect Abrams to continue to cook on Monday against future Hall of Famer Max Scherzer, who returns from the Injured List to face his former team.

    Analysis

    Cleveland has lost five games in a row, and they play in Cincinnati on Monday, with Slade Cecconi coming to the rescue. Cleveland has lost his last two starts. They've gone over his last three starts, and he's allowed 15 runs during that span. Chase Burns should be okay, only allowing at most two runs, and I think Cincinnati will score five to six runs. Cleveland is sliding fast, and they now have a one-game lead in the wild card chase over Minnesota. Cincinnati comes home after a nine-game road trip where they went 6-3, leaving them five games back in the wild card hunt. The Reds have won the last seven games started by Chase Burns, and they've won by two runs or more.

    Picked: Jul 26 @ 4:51pm

    Analysis

    Normally I'd avoid fading New York ace Max Fried against struggling White Sox rookie Noah Schultz, but the Yanks will be off that awful Sunday night baseball spot, and they lost All-Star outfielder Cody Bellinger to the IL on Sunday. That's the last thing an injury-ravaged and struggling lineup needs. In their last 32 games (entering Sunday night), the Yankees have averaged only 3.25 runs per. Schultz was a touted prospect for a reason and has shown some promising signs at home at times. I'm starting to actually believe in the White Sox as a playoff club. Really solid price as good as the Pale Hose have been at Comiskey (I'll always call it that) at 33-18 ATS.

    Money Line
    Picked: Jul 24 @ 5:55pm

    Analysis

    Did you really think I would not be first on college football? I own this sport. It's a big number so I go two units (I think should be -240ish). Obviously a risk doing it a month-plus before kickoff, but UNLV has a shot to be the best non-power school in the country under Dan Mullen, while Memphis lost its head coach and most good players to Arkansas. Whomever wants to move from Memphis to Arkansas needs to have their heads examined, but money talks holmes.
