The PLAY: Pittsburgh Pirates -1.5 (-140) Michael Lorenzen (RHP), Paul Skenes (RHP) Must Start
Skenes is arguably the best pitcher in baseball. Since a tough opening day start, he's 5-1 with a dominant 1.31 ERA and 0.58 WHIP. Over his past three starts, he has 23 Ks with zero walks. Lorenzen isn't even close to being in the same class. After giving up seven runs on 11 hits (in just five innings) last time out, he's 2-4 with a 6.92 ERA and 1.90 WHIP. In addition to all the hits allowed, he's walked six, while striking out seven over his past two starts. Skene and the Pirates should win convincingly. Play at -1.5 up to -155
