- Los Angeles Dodgers -0.5 Run Line in 1st 5 (-115)
Very strong 12-0 trend on Blake Snell as starting pitcher, he’s facing hot Toronto team, but he should be better by at least one run, than his opponent after 5 innings.

BEST NRFI (Run or NO Run in First Inning)
Phillies vs. Rangers RFI YES (+130)
There is a risk, but we are taking our chances. with deGrom vs. Luzardo, two strikeout-capable arms; strong correlation with a low first-inning scoring expectation beat this NO RUN in the first inning line to -165, so we gladly taking YES at +130
KC Royals vs. Twins NRFI (-120)
We do like the NRFI behind Cameron’s control and Minnesota’s inconsistent early offense
Cubs vs. Cardinals RFI YES (-120)
There is plenty of indicators suggesting OVER in Total in this game, lets hope they start scoring right out of the gate.
