MLB betting: Texas moves to 6-0 after Cruz suspension

It has been a week since the suspensions stemming from the Florida biogenesis case in Major League Baseball were handed down.

Though it wasn't an overly star-studded list, the list included a few everyday players. Namely Nelson Cruz of the Texas Rangers.

Cruz was batting .269 with 27 homers and 76 RBI in a productive season before accepting the suspension from the league.

Following a 6-1 victory over the Houston Astros Sunday, the Rangers are a blistering 6-0 in life post-Nelson Cruz.

Any $100 bettor would be up $412.35 if they had wagered in each of the Rangers six ball games without their suspended slugger.

The Rangers will look to keep the streak rolling as they finish up their four-game set with the Astros Monday.

At the time of writing, the Rangers are -210 road favorites. Yu Darvish takes the mound for Texas.

DAVE ESSLER Monday MLB Thoughts

Phillies-Braves: Have to wonder if Atlanta is going into a funk here, at least at the plate. When they do, and because they rely a lot on the long ball, it can get ugly. Although the did finally wake up later in the game Sunday. Teheran has been super-solid his last four starts only allowing three runs, and I'd try to discredit that by seeing who he's beaten, but one of them was a two hit shutout against the Cardinals. Add that to the 0.44 ERA of the Braves bullpen the last week, and that would be tough to fade. But, Hamels hasn't had the greatest track record at Turner Field. McCann might be dinged up. Certainly not laying -170 (although better numbers are out there. If there's anyone that can motivate the Phillies right now it may be Atlanta. Aside from the rivalry, the Braves just swept the Phillies in Philadelphia last week, so I could make a reasonable argument for the Phillies here, certainly the RL, but because the total is so low the RL is a bit pricey (expected).

Reds at Cubs: Latos may remember getting shelled at Wrigley back in June and have some revenge plans. But, the last time Latos pitched after having three straight 100+ pitch games he was lit up in Atlanta. The Reds are under .500 on the road and their bullpen has had some issues, so taking Latos is far from automatic for me. I'm real interested to see what total they put out. Ryan Ludwick is supposed to be activated for this game. I guess the Cubs are the Cubs, but since Wood has started three games against the Reds this season, all losses, maybe he's got some incentive. Lean under here and may Cubs RL.

Padres-Rockies: I'd love to find a way to take the + with San Diego, but against a RHP and without Quentin, I'd have to think hard about that, especially with an under-performing bullpen lately. Volquez has been decent lately, but he hasn't pitched past the sixth inning in about ten straight starts, which brings said bullpen into the mix. Chacin has been in or won every game, and the last team to get to him badly was the Padres back in early June. He's already paid them back, but my guess is he hasn't forgotten that and that this line is probably justified. If the Rockies don't rest people or use too much bullpen against the Pirates on Sunday I could make a case for the Rockies, here, even the RL. Especially with the Padres already playing at least 11 innings on Sunday, if not more.

Met-Dodgers: We'll see what the Dodgers do against the Rays, but they're starting to pull away in the NL West, even with all the injuries. Hanley may or may not be back, and without him, and even with it being the Mets, I lean under here. Mejia can be solid, but he does have a bone spur that apparently requires surgery when the season is over. I just don't get why he doesn't have that done now. The Dodgers pen has a 1.66 ERA over the last week, while the Mets pen has been quite good all season, another reason I do like the under here, especially in the big park and at night where the ball doesn't travel as well. This is only Nolasco's second home start since being acquired by the Dodgers, and he saw plenty of the Mets when he was with the Fish. It's a shame that David Wright is out because he simply owned Nolasco. Even with that, I could make a case for the Mets RL without too much trouble.

Oakland-Toronto: Is Josh Johnson really someone that's only -110 here? Because he had one solid outing against the Mariners? He's been trade bait and nobody seems to want him, and actually cleared waivers. Maybe that's what'd got him finally pissed off enough to throw strike. Clearly this is either a gift to take Oakland or a trap. The plus for taking Toronto is that the A's have never seen Johnson. Straily was hit pretty hard in Oakland last week by these Jays, and you guys do know I favor the pitcher next time around. With that in mind, and both teams having solid bullpen, if we think Johnson won't get hammered, I lean under here, especially in a day game where the "A" teams may not be on the field.

Texas-Houston: I am a little surprised that Darvish is "only" -215 here. Perhaps it's due in part to the fact that the Rangers' bats have seemingly gone silent, or the tightness he had in the last start, or the fact that Houston whacked him around pretty good in Arlington about a month ago. Or perhaps even the fact that Oberholtzer shut out Boston and shut out the Orioles for seven innings. Clearly a case for the Astros RL here. But again, this is a day game and people are likely to rest. I wish the total were 8 and not 7.5, because I do like the under. However, that's all the more reason, if it stays where it's at, to think there's value to the home team RL.

Angels at Yankees: So the Angels and their bullpen have a complete meltdown against the Indians on Sunday. They simply have to have their golf clubs more on their mind than a trip to Yankee Stadium. And did we think the Yankees would be -150 this season to too many people, say, a month ago. Richards IS (has been) a relief pitcher and has two starts now where he's actually gone 6+ innings and kept the ball on the ground. Kuroda hasn't pitched at home in a month, and the ONLY thing that concerns me here is that he's had four straight 100+ pitch games. This would almost be automatic on NYY if Rivera hadn't blown some saves, and they couldn't close out the Tigers without first having another blown save on Sunday. I do take from that game that PERHAPS Pettitte is worth playing somewhere along the line. Maybe, just maybe, the Halos RL here.

Detroit-Chicago: I suppose if you thought you could get Sale at home as an underdog you'd jump at the chance. I would almost rather had the Tigers beat the Yankees rather than blow that game, because NOW Detroit might be pissed. Detroit's had little problem (this year) getting some runs off of Sale, and they (Detroit) can't quite put it in cruise control yet. Fister has been close to unhittable since the break, and has been exceptional at keeping the ball on the ground. Since Alexi Ramirez is about the only one that's hit Fister (aside from Viciedo who is hurt) there is no chance of taking the White Sox, unless people rest for Detroit. Like a lot of people. I doubt, but haven't looked at the weather, this gets to eight runs.
