All odds as of April 18th

Yandy’s A Dandy

New York Yankees righthander Gerrit Cole is an AL Cy Young Award favorite and rates among baseball’s top pitchers. However, to Tampa Bay Rays infielder Yandy Diaz, Cole is just another hurler.

Diaz is batting .417 (5-for-12) against Cole with a home run. Against the Yankees this season, Diaz is 6-for-21 (.286). You’ll get +950 odds if you’re bold and play Diaz to go deep.

  • Pick: Yandy Diaz 1+ hits (-182)

Nick’s Time

Washington’s Stephen Strasburg is also an elite pitcher, but Arizona shortstop Nick Ahmed wears him out. He’s a .500 hitter (6-for-12) with a homer off Strasburg.

It’s been a rough start for Ahmed, who’s batting just .125 and returned late last week from the 10-day injured list. Maybe a few cuts against Strasburg is exactly what he needs to get going.

  • Pick: Nick Ahmed 1+ hits (-161)
