2-1; +1.3 yesterday, only loss was Cleveland losing in the 10th.
One early play I'll post now:

Blue Jays -1.5 (+110) (2 Units)
As pitching match-ups go, this is a story of HOT vs. NOT. Brandon Morrow is pitching lights out right now going 3-0, 0.42 ERA in his last 3 games. Tyson Ross, on the other hand, is .... not posting 10.93 ERA, 14 IP in his last 3. His stuff has been downright flat and hitters are seeing him really well. In his last two starts, he's given up 16 runs, all of which were earned. This is good enough for me to get plus money.

May have more plays later.

Keeping this play small due to the Red Sox playing like clowns as of late, but this pitching match-up is lopsided to put it lightly. Jon Lester hasn't been great this season (1-2, 4.62 ERA), but these numbers are a bit inflated by one horrible outing against Texas where he gave up 7 ER in 2 innings. He's coming off two decent starts, and the Sox need a big win here. Bruce Chen is on his way out. He surprised alot of people last year in what looked like a total career resurrection, but he's fallen flat on his face early into this season. The Royals are 0-6 in his starts. I thought about risking more and playing the moneyline, but the value just isn't there. If the Red Sox win this, it will be by more than a run.

1-1-1 +1.2 Units

Could've been a 3-0 day, error plagued in Red Sox game and the Twins/Angels missed some good scoring opportunities. Anyway, I'll take the winning day.
