GAME: Colorado Rockies @ Washington Nationals PICK: Washington Nationals SPREAD PICK: Washington Nationals -1.5 (146) OVER/UNDER PICK: Over 9.5 CONFIDENCE: Medium REASON: Rockies remain one of the league's worst offenses/defenses and both bullpens are gassed in hot 31°C weather, favoring a Nationals blowout with plenty of scoring. GAME: Baltimore Orioles @ St. Louis Cardinals PICK: Baltimore Orioles SPREAD PICK: Baltimore Orioles -1.5 (130) OVER/UNDER PICK: Over 8.0 CONFIDENCE: Medium REASON: St. Louis's TBD starter creates uncertainty and likely an early bullpen burden, giving Baltimore's more stable roster an edge in a game that should see plenty of runs. GAME: Houston Astros @ New York Yankees PICK: New York Yankees SPREAD PICK: New York Yankees -1.5 (126) OVER/UNDER PICK: Under 8.0 CONFIDENCE: High REASON: Gerrit Cole at home against a middling Astros lineup, with calm wind conditions, should keep this game low-scoring and Yankee-favored.
