Free Prediction: Houston Astros -141
Big motivation for the Astros here as they look to avenge 8 straight losses to the Reds. Plus, Cincy is primed and ready for a letdown after 5 straight wins. And ultimately, the Astros send the better starter to the hill. Cincy’s Justin Lehr has an ERA of 8.04 and a WHIP of 1.978 while Houston’s Felipe Paulino has an ERA of 3.80 at home on the season and 3.71 over his last 3 starts. Plus, Lehr was roughed up for 5 earned in 5 innings just 10 games ago by the ’stros, allowing 11 hits, 5 of which were homeruns. The Reds won that game by a run, but I don’t see that happening here as he is opposed by a better starter this time around. Bet the Astros. Courtesy of Jimmy Boyd

Free Prediction: Minnesota Twins -177
The Twins are in hot pursuit of the Tigers in the Central and playing red hot baseball (10-1 L11). No way they let the Royals stand in their way today, especially not with DiNardo on the mound, who brings in an ERA of 8.22 and a WHIP of 2.348. The Twins are 6-1 in Baker’s last 7 starts as a road favorite and 6-2 in his last 8 starts vs. the Royals. Plus Minnesota has won 4 straight over KC and is 21-8 in the last 29 meetings in Kansas City. Take the Twins. Courtesy of Jeff Alexander
