MLB: Friday's Atl/Ari

Play: Atlanta/Arizona over 7.5 +100 (Teheran vs. McCarthy)

Time: 9:40 p.m. ET

Reasoning: I really like the way this game sets up. You have one struggling pitcher (Brandon McCarthy) and one excellent pitcher (Julio Teheran). But that excellent pitcher has to face a team (Arizona) that has banged out 39 hits and 28 runs in its last two games. The tablesetters have been getting it done for the Diamondbacks, as their the leadoff and second batters in their lineup have combined for a .441 average over the last eight games. In his last start McCarthy allowed five runs for the second consecutive time. Games at Chase Field have averaged 9.45 runs.


Record: 95-62-5 (60.5%)
Bankroll: +111.22%
