Friday Baseball picks for Diamondbacks vs. Cardinals and White Sox vs. Athletics

For tonight's games we're trying something different – two games, six bets (lines courtesy of SugarHouse PA).

Diamondbacks @ CARDINALS 8:15 pm

Cardinals -120

Under 8.5 runs -113

Cardinals -1.5 +165

White Sox @ ATHLETICS 10:07 pm

Athletics -190

Under 9 runs +100

Athletics -1.5 +102

The Skinny:

Cardinal pitcher Daniel Ponce de Leon has been sharp in all but one appearance and Robbie Ray has been consistently pitching to his ERA around 4. First game back from a break I think the arms will be ahead of the bats and am going with two home teams to win close, but not too close games. The -190 on the A's reflects their hot play recently – no reason for it to stop tonight with 8-3 Mike Fiers on the mound. The bet I like least in this game is the Under – when White Sox starter Ivan Nova is bad, he can be pretty bad. But he was great his last start.
