Here's my MLB picks for Monday, August 24: (run lines from SportsPlays.com)
New York Mets (-1.5) vs. Philadelphia Phillies
The Mets put Jacob deGrom on the hill to go against the Phillies' Adam Morgan. Morgan is 0-5 on the season, and the red hot Mets aren't going to have any trouble with him.
Colorado Rockies (+1.5) vs. Atlanta Braves
The Braves send Julio Teheran to the bump against the Rockies at Turner Field on Monday. Carlos Gonzalez has been incredible at the plate, belting 19 homers in his last 46 games. Teheran has been wishy-washy on the mound with his stuff this season, and I like the Rockies' chances of being to able to hang within a run in this game.
Houston Astros (+1.5) vs. New York Yankees
Two division-leading foes square off on Monday, as the Astros' will starts Scott Feldman against the Yankees' Nathan Eovaldi. Eovaldi has been a good pickup for the Yankees this year, but I don't see him having his best outing against the most powerful lineup in the MLB. In addition to that, Eovaldi has struggled against the Astros in the past, so I like Houston here.
