MLB: Friday's 7 p.m. ET plays


Play: N.Y. Yankees/Baltimore over 8.5 +100 (Kuroda vs. Gonzalez)

Time: 7:05 p.m. ET

Reasoning:  With the potential gas cans out there tonight (Hiroki Kuroda and Miguel Gonzalez), I wouldn't be surprised if just one of these teams scores nine or more runs. Kuroda has a 4.20 ERA in 2014 and a 1.45 WHIP in his last three starts. Gonzalez has a 4.22 ERA and a 1.52 WHIP on the season and a 1.87 WHIP in his last three starts. The Orioles score 0.34 more runs per game vs. RH. The Yankees bullpen has a 3.88 ERA overall and a 5.82 ERA in its last five games.



Play: N.Y. Mets -119 (action vs. Wheeler)

Time: 7:10 p.m. ET

Reasoning: Zack Wheeler is 1-0 with a 0.96 ERA in four career starts against Miami. In his last turn against the Marlins, Wheeler tossed a three-hitter. Three of his last four starts have been gems. Miami scores 0.31 less runs per game vs. RH and 0.60 less rpg in road contests. The Mets also have a better bullpen and they have been raking RH of late (5.25 rpg).




Record: 134-102-6 (56.8%)
Bankroll: +71.32%
