This is a 10* play on MILWAUKEE

We took the Reds both Saturday and Sunday, getting mixed results. They won for us Saturday, 3-2, but then failed to earn a split with St. Louis by losing 3-1 on Sunday. I's been a tough start to the second half for them as they've now dropped 7 of 10 with four of the losses coming by just one run. They've lost 9 of 12 overall and eventually all the close losses will wear on a team, especially one that is in last place and losing belief that "this could be their year." Milwaukee still has faith in 2019 after capturing five of six, including three of four out in Arizona this past weekend. The Brewers will go with Chase Anderson as the starter Monday and he's pitched better than he's been given credit for with a 0.975 WHIP at home and 0.886 WHIP his last three starts overall. For the Reds, Sonny Gray has pitched shockingly well of late, but we don't expect that to hold up, at least not on the road where he sports a 3-6 team start record. The Reds are just 19-29 on the road, which is a major reason why we've soured on them compared to the previous two days. Play on MILWAUKEE

This is an 8* play on CLEVELAND

The Indians are playing well right now. They've taken advantage of a really easy schedule to go 12-3 this month and their lone loss since the All Star Break was 1-0 to the Royals on Saturday. They bounced back from that to win 5-4 Sunday and now head to Toronto to face a Blue Jays team they swept earlier in the season. Toronto is just the next bad team on the Indians' schedule as they've won less than 38% of their games this year and are just 18-30 at home. They even lost yesterday to the Tigers, who had previously dropped 22 of 25 games. While Mike Clevingers' numbers on the road might be worrisome to some, it's a very small sample size (just three starts) and his last three starts overall have resulted in only two runs allowed in 17 innings. That includes six shutout innings on the road. Here he'll be facing a Blue Jays lineup that doesn't hit well at home (.221 average). Ryan Borucki is starting a major league game for the first time all year as injuries have limited him to just four minor league assignments. It's a tough spot for him facing a team that's won 28 of its last 39 games. Play on CLEVELAND

This is a 10* Play on the UNDER

We anticipate this being a low-scoring affair despite neither starter being anything remotely special. Miami comes into this Interleague series as the lowest scoring team in the National League. Every NL team has scored at least 77 more runs this year than have the Marlins. The White Sox have scored fewer runs this year than all but two teams. Miami is one and Detroit is the other. True to form, the Marlins were shutout on Sunday while the White Sox scored only four runs in a pair of losses over the weekend. The starting pitching matchup for this game is actually better than it looks considering Chicago's Ivan Nova is perfect in four career starts vs. Miami (4-0), posting a 0.98 ERA! Trevor Richards of the Marlins has an 0-7 team start record his last seven times out, but don't put all the blame on him as six of the seven losses saw him get no more than three runs of support. In his last 11 starts, Richards has given up three runs or less eight times. Play UNDER Miami-Chicago
