FRANK’S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR FOR TUESDAY, 7/14:

My “Cutting Room Floor” plays are the situations I considered the closest to being worthy of investment but did not make the “final cut” for my official plays today for subscribers. The last play I cut for Tuesday is with the National League with the money-line versus the American League. The National League will have revenge on their mind after losing to the AL by a 5-3 score last year. The NL did snap a nine-game losing streak in the “Midsummer Classic” two years ago with a 3-2 victory. There are so many roster constraints and opt-outs from year-to-year that make it ill advised to read anything in those results. I do not think the AL has a talent edge over the NL — especially when Shohei Ohtani, Ronald Acuna, Kyle Tucker, and Freddie Freeman are in their starting lineup. Furthermore, the AL will be without some of their best starting pitchers who made the team but are opting out for various reasons: Hunter Brown, Max Fried, Garrett Crochet, Jacob deGrom, and Yusei Kikuchi. Of course, Tarik Skubal is as good as it gets as their opener — but the replacements of that above list includes Casey Mize, Drew Rasmussen, and Carlos Rodon with only the latter not representing a downgrade. The NL has Paul Skenes starting before turning to Logan Webb, Mackenzie Gore, Andrew Abbott, and the controversial late pick Jacob Misiorowski (who is electric). From my vantage point, the NL has the talent edge on the active rosters. Take the National League with the money-line. Best of luck — Frank.
