The Cincinnati Reds had the typical travel flat game with Monday’s shutout loss against the Giants. They seemed to have a lingering effect of blowing Sunday’s 3-0 lead against the Arizona Diamondbacks. We have seen this pattern time and time again with the Reds post All Star break, and they respond. Off a shutout loss they are 5-0 in the second half of the season. The Reds get back in the win column.

With the Philadelphia Phillies loss yesterday, the Kansas City Royals now hold the best win streak in MLB at eight wins. Nick Loftin had a brutal stretch at the plate from August 11th to the 19th, where he was 1 for 24 from the plate. Highlighted in that stretch was multiple strikeouts four times. That had occurred only eight times all season for Loftin, and shows how down his play was. Yet, Sunday he snapped out of it with a 3 for 4 night and a home run. Take Loftin over his combination line against the Blue Jays.

I’m typically not one to get in the way of a win streak, but breaking that rule tonight. The Philadelphia Phillies are on a nine game win streak, but got away with a miracle win in yesterday’s thriller over St. Louis. Zack Wheeler has not recorded a win Post All Star break. As we did last week when Seattle lost by twenty two runs to the Brewers, will back them again after losing by seventeen runs yesterday. Logan Gilbert gets his third win in a row for the first time this season.

Mickey Gasper of the Red Sox has made the most of being called up just a week ago. Through six games in August Gasper has hit three home runs and totaled nine RBI’s. He had a double in both games over the weekend for the Red Sox against the Giants, and will see Sandy Alcantara who gave up eight hits his last outing. That’s the second most hits he has given up since June. Take Gasper over on his combination line tonight.

Veteran bat Kyle Tucker has been the hot topic of scrutiny the majority of the season for the LA Dodgers. This could be the time to buy on him after a seven game hitless stretch. He’s responded with a hit in three out of four games, and had two RBI’s in yesterday’s 4-3 Dodger victory. Play Tucker in all prop markets against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The San Diego Padres boosted their home streak to 10 and 1 over their last eleven home games in last night’s victory. Now they will see Dean Kremer who is 0-3 on the road this season and has a road ERA over 7. Kremer is going to give up runs, but look for the Twins to battle as they did their prior series in a sweep over the Braves. Prior to his debut for the Padres, Casey Mize worst start of the season was against the Twins on April 6th. Back the underdog Twins.

The Kansas City Royals overall record has let them fly under the radar for their home success post All Star break. They are 12-4 at home, and have matched a season best five game winning streak. They forced Troy Melton out early on July 23rd as he had four walks through five innings. Even with some key injuries to their lineup, look for the Royals to get a season best sixth win in a row.

The Baltimore Orioles just had a six game win streak end against the Tampa Bay Rays this past Sunday. Still, they managed six runs and have had success against the Rays pitching staff overall. Tyler O’Neill has the most experience against Freddy Peralta of any Oriole, and has had a hit in five straight games against the Rays. Would not surprise me to see O’Neill record a run on a home run from Samuel Basallo. Split play for O’Neill to record a run/RBI.

On the season in Gerrit Cole’s starts the under is 8 and 0 on the road. That streak may continue but I do believe the Orioles have some success at the plate, especially after the controversial loss yesterday. Dylan Beavers homered in yesterday’s loss, and has scored a run or RBI in four of the five games he has played against the Yankees this season. Split prop on Beavers for a run and RBI.
