Monday’s best MLB bets

New York Yankees at Tampa Bay Rays (+105, 8)

Two of the game’s most dominating left-handed starters square off on Monday night as New York’s CC Sabathia goes head-to-head with Tampa Bay’s David Price on Monday.

Price has allowed more than three earned runs only once over his last nine starts, but has only five wins over that span. Sabathia has allowed five runs in two of his last three outings, but sandwiched an eight-inning shutout of the Oakland A’s in between.

You won’t see a better lefty-lefty matchup around so we’ll stick with the betting playbook and play the under.

Pick: Under

Toronto Blue Jays at Baltimore Orioles (-121, 9)

The Baltimore Orioles have been a completely different team since Buck Showalter took over managerial duties. After a terrible start to the year, Baltimore is putting some runs on the board and isn’t an automatic loss when playing on the road.

Baltimore dropped a 6-2 decision at Detroit on Sunday but had won six of seven before that.

Pick: Orioles
