6:40 PM Eastern

Miami Marlins vs. Pittsburgh Pirates

Pirates starting pitcher Mitch Keller has massive career home and road splits, posting a lifetime 4.10 ERA at home with just over 0.8 home runs per nine innings allowed, compared to a 5.04 road ERA with 1.2 home runs per nine innings. Marlins starter Sandy Alcantara looks like a shell of his former Cy Young-winning self, with a 7.89 ERA, 1.3 home runs, and 4.7 walks per nine innings, and is backed by a bullpen that ranks 24th in ERA at 4.54.

Picks: Pirates Moneyline -120 and Over 8 Runs (Greg’s Handicap: Pirates -156 and Total 8.6)

Cincinnati Reds vs. Cleveland Guardians

Guardians starter Slade Cecconi has a 4.87 ERA with 8.9 strikeouts per nine innings, but has allowed six total home runs in four starts, leading to a 6.12 fielding independent. He’s supported by an offense averaging just 3.6 runs per game at home—28th in the league. Reds starter Andrew Abbott owns a 2.18 ERA with 9.9 strikeouts and one home run per nine innings, and his ERA improves to 2.05 on the road.

Washington Nationals vs. New York Mets

Nationals starter MacKenzie Gore has been stellar with a 2.87 ERA and 12.9 strikeouts per nine innings, but he’s backed by a bullpen with a 5.81 ERA, the worst in the National League. Mets starter Griffin Canning has a 2.90 ERA but might be due for regression with a 3.78 fielding independent and four walks per nine innings. He faces a Nationals lineup that ranks ninth in runs per game on the road with over 4.7.
