Free MLB prediction from Doc’s Sports Take #926 Los Angeles Angels over New York Yankees (10:05pm ET) The New York Yankees come to Anaheim to take on the Los Angeles Angels. There’s quite a contrast in how these teams will be feeling coming into tonight’s game. The Yankees went 18 innings on Thursday night in a 3-2 loss in Oakland. They utilized their entire bullpen and are surely a bit fatigued after playing the equivalent of two games and then traveling afterwards. The Angels, meanwhile, had the day off on Thursday as they prepared for their series with the Yanks. Baseball is a long season and these types of extreme situations do occur from time to time, but rarely with teams on either end of it. C.J. Wilson and Andy Pettitte will go head-to-head in this one. They have similar numbers on the season, but Wilson has fared better against the Yanks in his career and New York struggles against southpaws. Pettitte is also going to be asked to go a little deeper than usual with the bullpen getting overworked yesterday, so that could affect the 41-year old. The Angels are well-rested and I think they get the job done today.

MLB Predictions: June 14th 2013
Arizona Diamondbacks vs. San Diego Padres
Pick: Padres -115 odds
CLICK HERE FOR FREDDY WILL’S EXPERT BASEBALL PICKS

No plays on Thursday with the exception of the NBA Finals where we are 3-1 ATS in the series. We are looking for a huge weekend in MLB and it all starts on Friday where there are 10 pitchers with ERA’s under 3.00 and just 4 with ERA’s over 6.00 over their last three starts combined. I look at one pitcher and one team that has a ton of value right now as the free MLB pick of the day.

San Diego Padres (Eric Stults -117 1* FREE PLAY)
Eric Stults has been pretty consistent all year and comes into this game with a 0.73 WHIP over 22 innings with a 1.64 ERA over his last three starts combined. Stults will go up against the Diamondbacks who he’s had moderate success against. The Diamondbacks are a much stronger team against RHP this season as they have just a .249 average and are scoring 3.56 runs per 9 vs LHP on the year and 3.37 on the road. San Diego will back up Stults with a very good bullpen that has a 2.79 ERA at home.

Trevor Cahill will start on the opposite side and he has an ERA over 8 over his last three starts combined. Cahill on the season has just 5.69 K/9 and a 3.35 BB/9 which for me is not a very good ratio. He’s getting just 25.4 % of swings outside the zone and his only out pitch is his sinker and ability to get ground balls. The Padres don’t win with the long ball any way so I expect them to continue their hot hitting and for Cahill to struggle again. The Padres are 3rd with a .820 OPS over the last 7 days.

Philadelphia Phillies vs. Minnesota Twins
Prediction: Phillies -130 odds

The Philadelphia Phillies have a big edge on the mound tonight with Cliff Lee over Minnesota’s Kevin Correia. I’ll lay a little extra juice here and back the Phillies as they come in highly motivated to put an end to their current 5-game losing streak.

Lee has pitched like the former Cy Young that he is in 2013. The left-hander has gone 7-2 with a 2.55 ERA and 1.007 WHIP in 13 starts this season, including 5-1 with a 1.80 ERA and 0.867 WHIP in eight road starts.

Correia is 5-4 with a 4.11 ERA and 1.318 WHIP in 12 starts this season for Minnesota, including 1-0 with a 4.74 ERA and 1.368 WHIP in his last three outings. The right-hander is 1-2 with a monstrous 9.98 ERA and 2.674 WHIP in four career starts against Philadelphia.

Minnesota is 7-31 (-22.0 Units) against the money line vs. a starting pitcher who throws more than 6.5 innings per start over the last 2 seasons. Philadelphia is 6-1 in Lee’s last 7 starts overall. The Twins are 14-49 in their last 63 games vs. a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. Bet the Phillies Thursday.

Washington Nationals vs. Colorado Rockies
Betting Prediction: Rockies -1.5 +118 odds (June 12th 2013)
CLICK HERE FOR STEVE JANUS’ EXPERT MLB PICKS

The Rockies are massive home favorites for a reason on Wednesday. Colorado is playing the better baseball right now. The Rockies have won 7 of 10 while the Nationals have lost 5 of their last 8. Part of Washington’s problem is they are missing their two young stars in Harper and Strasburg. Not to mention they are also without catcher Wilson Ramos and 2B Danny Espinosa.

The Nationals have really struggled on the road this season, as they are just 13-19 away from home. It will be hard for them to avoid their 20th loss, as the Rockies have a clear edge one the mound in this one. Colorado’s Jorge De La Rosa is 7-3 with a 3.38 ERA in 13 starts, but most importantly he’s 5-0 with a 3.15 ERA at Coors Field. He will be opposed by Ross Ohlendorf, who is making his first start of 2012. The same Ross Ohlendorf that posted a 7.77 ERA in 2012 and 8.15 ERA in 2011. Over his six year big league career, he’s 18-32 with a 5.10 ERA and 1.48 WHIP. Hard to believe he will be effective in his first start pitching in hitter friendly Coors Field. BET THE ROCKIES -1.5!

Los Angeles Angels vs. Baltimore Orioles
MLB Prediction: Baltimore -120 odds (June 12th 2013)
CLICK HERE FOR JESSE SCHULE’S EXPERT MLB BASEBALL PICKS

The Orioles are rolling along nicely once again, winners of three games in a row to pull within 2.5 games of the A.L. East division lead.

The Angels continue to flounder, now sitting 11 games under .500, and 11.5 games back of the first-place Rangers and A’s in the A.L. West.

So perhaps it should come as no surprise that I’m backing the O’s in this one.

As far as I’m concerned, Baltimore still has to make up for lost time here at home, where it finds itself a solid but unspectacular 17-13 on the season. Note that the O’s have gone 20-15 away from Camden Yards.

This is a favorable scheduling spot for Baltimore as it will remain home for a series with the Red Sox beginning tomorrow night. Meanwhile, the Angels will certainly be looking forward to an off day on Thursday before opening a series with the Yankees back in Anaheim on Friday.

Jerome Williams gets the nod for the Halos on Wednesday. He’s actually fared quite well this season, splitting time as a starter and a reliever. I haven’t been overly impressed with his stuff, however, not this year, or any other year for that matter. He’s managed to make a career of pitching to contact, but I look for the O’s to take advantage of that fact on Wednesday. Note that they’ll be getting their second look at Williams this season after tagging him for five earned runs in only 4 1/3 innings in Anaheim back on May 5th.

Jason Hammel will counter for the O’s. He’s been fairly inconsistent overall this season, but has settled down a bit lately, allowing exactly two earned runs in three of his last four starts. Hammel worked into at least the seventh inning in all three of those strong outings. We can expect him to show some improvement over his next few starts at home, noting that he’s posted a ridiculous 7.33 ERA in five outings at Camden Yards so far this season.
While the Orioles struggling bullpen has been the talk of the town after their relief corps turned in a surprisingly strong 2012 campaign, it’s certainly worth noting that the Angels have had a tough time in that department as well.

The first two games in this series have been close, but I expect the Orioles to break things open on Wednesday afternoon, adding to the Angels season-long woes. Take Baltimore (1*).

St. Louis Cardinals vs. Cincinnati Reds
MLB Prediction: Cardinals -107 odds (June 9th 2013)
CLICK HERE FOR JOSEPH D’AMICO’S EXPERT MLB BASEBALL PICKS

St. Louis and Cincinnati have split the first two games of this series, but the Cardinals haven’t lost a series since the end of April. Despite the Reds victory yesterday, they aren’t scoring. Over their L30 contests, Cincy has posted 5 or more runs just 11 times. Outside of Joey Votto, the offense doesn’t have a single .300 hitter and possesses six every day batters that have combined for 319 K’s. Overall, the team has only 18 SBs. So when they do get on, they don’t advance. Bronson Arroyo takes the bump. The RH is 6-5 on the season, including an 0-2 mark vs. St. Louis. In his career, Arroyo is 8-15 when starting against the Cards. St. Louis has the best record in Base Ball at 40-22, including the League’s best away record at 21-10 on the road. They averaged nearly 8 RPG in June before yesterday’s loss. While their lineup has four sluggers with hitting streaks of nine or more games. They rank 3rd in scoring at 4.94 RPG and 2nd in Team BA at .275. Lance Lynn gets the start. The RH is 8-1 with a 2.76 ERA, limiting opponents to two runs or less in 7 of his L9 starts. This season, Lynn is 2-0 vs. Cincy. The Cardinals are 10-3 their L13 games vs. the NL Central, 20-7 their L27 games played on the road, and 20-7 in Lynn’s L27 overall starts. The Reds are 1-5 their L6 games played vs. RH starters, 0-4 their L4 in Game 3 of a series, and 3-7 in Arroyo’s L10 starts as a home ‘dog. Take St. Louis. Thank you.
