Welcome to the Daily Dish, where we go through the MLB schedule for the day, giving you the starting pitcher matchups, and recent performance trends, and then listing some of our best bets if you choose to bet on the games.

We had a cold middle of the week for our MLB bets and fell to just under .500 for the week, so we need to get the turnaround started today.

St. Louis Cardinals (32-25) @ Tampa Bay Rays (33-23), 1:10 p.m. ET

TB Starting Pitcher: Shane McClanahan (6-2, 2.1 ERA, 0.92 WHIP, 12.45 K/9)
STL Starting Pitcher: Miles Mikolas (4-3, 3.02 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, 6.99 K/9)

Last 10 – Runs Allowed: TB allowed 3.5 runs on average in their last 10 games. STL allowed 4.7 runs.
MLB Free Pick: Pass
WHY?: There just doesn’t seem to be much value here. The Rays are -185 favorites on the moneyline because of McClanahan, but the Cardinals have been the better offense over the last couple of weeks. Our model actually has the Rays favored by just 0.06 runs, so it’s hard to put money on them to win at those odds. The model also has the total projected runs at 6.64, so it’s too close to the Vegas total for me to pick a side there as well.

Last 10 – Runs Allowed: MIA allowed 5.4 runs on average in their last 10 games. WSH allowed 7.2 runs.
MLB Free Pick: Pass
WHY?: We haven’t seen Stephen Strasburg pitch in an MLB game in over a year, so I have absolutely no idea what we’re going to get. The model likes the Marlins to win, and I do too, but it’s also entirely possible we get five innings of really good pitching out of Strasburg, and then I’m not sure where the game finds itself since Trevor Rogers has really been struggling. I’ll just pass until we see how good Strasburg looks against MLB hitters.
