STL is a no brainier with Wainwright on the mound. The Cardinals offense has historically hit Latos well. While the Reds showed their offense today, their bats have been struggling as of late. Aside from the weak bullpen, the Cardinals are the better team. Wainwright has already pitched a complete game this season and gone the distance in every other game with the exception of his first start. One thing i forgot to mention, I think this line is way too low and am being given free money.
PIT is offensively dominate right now and Wandy's ERA surpasses Gallardo's significantly. Yes, the Brewers have had some success at the plate this year, but Pitt is by far the better overall team in this game.
LAD have definitely not started off the season the way they had hoped. They have also had some huge losses in their lineup. While there is only a small sample of Dodger bats against Chatwood, that sample has done well versus him. Lilly's ERA puts Chatwood's to shame.
NYY are playing the Astros, need I say more? Fading Astros.
BAL is the better team. Not big samples, but O's have hit Saunders better than Seattle has hit Britton. While both have incredibly poor ERA's, I think the O's offense gets it done.
