Here's my picks for Wednesday, May 13: (run lines from SportsPlays.com)
St. Louis Cardinals (+1.5) vs. Cleveland Indians
First off, before I even looked at the pitching matchup I noticed that the Cardinals were the underdogs in this matchup. They're only the best team in Major League Baseball right now, but the oddsmakers have decided that last year's AL Cy Young Winner should dictate otherwise. Corey Kluber has had a rough start to this season, and I don't think he's going to have a bad year. This is a tough matchup for Kluber to climb back up the ladder though, so I'm taking the Cards as the underdogs.
Detroit Tigers (-1.5) vs. Minnesota Twins
Minnesota right-hander Ricky Nolasco squares off against Tigers' lefty Kyle Lobstein in Detroit on Wednesday. Nolasco has shown some good stuff this season, but that powerful Tigers' offense will get the best of him in this matchup.
Tampa Bay Rays (-1.5) vs. New York Yankees
Okay, so I'm crazy for this one right? Nathan Karns is winless against the Yankees in two starts against them this year, but he hasn't pitched awful against the Bronx Bombers either. The Yankees will start righty Adam Warren, who's had a tough time against the Rays' hitters this season. If you play daily fantasy, you might want to check out Tampa's James Loney as an option for tomorrow. Loney has five RBI's in just seven at-bats against Warren.
