This is a play on the COLORADO ROCKIES for our Saturday Free Play. Colorado came through last night again and has busted out for 29 runs the last two games and has moved to a respectable 21-24 at home which is pretty good considering they were 25-56 all over last season here. We have a similar pitching matchup tonight with Tomoyuki Sugano who, like Ryan Feltner last night, has actually pitched better at Coors Field with a 4.14 ERA in seven starts while allowing three runs or less in five of those and has a good matchup. The Giants lost two of three in Arizona to open the roadtrip and after last night, they are 18-29 on the road. We faded Logan Webb who was on a roll and we will do the same with Robbie Ray who has been outstanding of late who has not allowed an earned run in three straight games across 22.1 innings. His 4.54 ERA on the road is over two runs higher than it is at home and while he has not lost in three starts at Coors Field going back to last season, he has a 4.97 ERA in those games and benefitted from 39 runs of support.

This is a play on the B.C. LIONS for our CFL Saturday Enforcer. We faded Edmonton last week and it took out Winnipeg to remain the only undefeated team in the CFL as the Elks are 3-0. Conversely, B.C. is one of only two winless teams in the league and it is not in the same category as 0-4 Ottawa. The defense has stunk but the Lions are now seeing the value as they come in as home underdogs. The running game could be the intangible factor here as the Lions need to slow down Justin Rankin. He rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown against Winnipeg and he leads the league in rushing yards with 387 and has 4 touchdowns. Additionally, the Lions need to establish some sort of running game as they ran the ball just nine times in their last game against Calgary. The passing game is not an issue for B.C as Nathan Rourke threw for 483 yards and three touchdowns with an interception, but the team lost the turnover battle 2-0. 10* (694) B.C. Lions

This is a play on the KANSAS CITY ROYALS as part of our MLB Double Play Sweep. Kansas City has been a brutal team to read as we had them on Thursday which resulted in the final game of the Royals getting swept against the Rays. Michael Wacha has been as consistent as they come as he has a 3.31 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in 17 starts with his nemesis being Texas as he has allowed 10 runs over 12 innings and his ERA is 2.79 in his other 15 outings. One of those starts was at home where he has a 2.85 ERA. Kansas City has dropped eight of his last nine starts but those eight losses were by a combined 13 runs. The Phillies have been hit or miss after a red hot run, going 3-3 over their last six games. We are going contrarian again here against Jesus Luzardo who has been solid all season and especially of late as he has allowed five runs over his last four starts and Philadelphia has won his last seven starts and is again paying the price on the road. 10* (928) Kansas City Royals

This is a play on the LOS ANGELES ANGELS as part of our MLB Double Play Sweep. Boston took the opener on Friday as it continues its revenge splits, now right at .500 again on the road compared to 10 games under .500 at home. Sonny Gray has been dominant with a 2.69 ERA overall and has not lost since April 14 but this includes a 2.18 ERA and 0.84 WHIP at Fenway Park and that goes up to 3.29 and 1.43 WHIP on the road. The Angels have lost four straight games as the offense has done nothing and the matchup is not easy with their strikeout rate but this is a good contrarian spot in an underrated pitching matchup. Sam Aldegheri is in a good spot here as he remains at home where he has been very solid posting a 3.24 ERA and 1.21 WHIP across 25 Innings and he is definitely comfortable here as he has tossed only 4.2 innings on the road so he is purposely in the weekend rotation before the Angels hit the road next week. 10* (924) Los Angeles Angels

This is a play on the CHICAGO WHITE SOX for our Divisional Game of the Month. The Guardians did it again in dramatic fashion and now hold a one-game lead over Chicago, and have defeated the White Sox nine straight times in Cleveland, after winning on walk-off hits Thursday and Friday. They are still just four games over .500 at home and send surprising ace Parker Messick to the hill but he has not been his best of late as he posted a 4.26 ERA in five June starts including two poor home starts where he allowed nine runs over 12.1 innings. The White Sox are No. 4 in Slugging percentage and No. in in wOBA against left-handed pitching this season. Chicago continues to struggle on the road and it is a significant underdog partly because of that. Sean Burke had a very good June with a 3.21 ERA in five starts that included only one poor one and that was against the Dodgers at home and he brings in a 3.06 ERA in seven road outings. 10* (919) Chicago White Sox
