MLB - 909 Cincinnati Reds @ 910 Houston Astros
(Starting Pitchers: M. Leake vs F. Abad)
Cincinnati will be starting Leake tonight and he is coming from a bounce back game after a poor game in Pittsburgh, as he dominated the Cardinals at home last Saturday, with two runs allowed in 6.2 innings. He is coming from a domination against the Cardinals and with him being a groundball pitcher and having just allowed 2 and 1 runs on his last two outings against the lowly Astros, I believe Leake will have another quality outing tonight.
Houston will be starting Abad, who was lucky to face the Mets in a middle of a span of two series against the Rockies and the Astros, where they just couldn't hit the ball. He threw 71 pitches in four innings, while having a 2/4 K/BB ratio and the advanced numbers (5.85 FIP and 7.32 xFIP) show that he was far from impressive on his first outing as a starting pitcher. With the Reds being full of RH batters and having had a day off yesterday, I believe they will pound Abad tonight and have an easy win tonight. Therefore, I'll be taking Cincinnati in here.
Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 909 Cincinnati Reds RL -1 (w/ M. Leake) @ -150 / 1.67 on 5Dimes
