Taking the WHITE SOX, going RUN LINE. Had the Under yesterday with the Sox. I know they haven't been doing much offensively. But if there is ever a time to get healthy, it's again Mejia. Guy has an 11.12 ERA this month in 4 starts. 17 innings 21 runs 23 hits 8 walks. Oh, 19 K's, so he strikes out a guy an inning! 6-6-4-5 runs allowed the last 4 starts. Get it done Chicago. 4* RL Money CHICAGO WHITE SOX 

Taking the BREWERS. How can I not take Milwaukee at this price with Burnes on the hill. Brew Crew doing their best to improve their offense. Bullpen still solid. Short number and maybe one of those too good to be true lines. But I can't pass on them. Best road record in MLB as I type this. Braves not doing much to separate themselves from the NL East pack. Give me the small fave. 4* Money Maker MILWAUKEE BREWERS 

Taking the YANKEES. A total no-show yesterday getting blitzed by Tampa. Their ace gets hammered. Gallo should be in the lineup. Who knows, Rizzo? For me though, this is a team off a terrible loss. I think they bounce back. Mainly my thinking for that is the trades. If the GM stayed put, these guys would me mailing it in from South Beach. But alas, they made some deals, here comes some offensive help. Taillon not a great year by any stretch of the word. Yet- He has come on strong. A 2.59 ERA his last 8 starts. A  bad road split with a 6 +ERA. Again though, July has been very good to James. 3 road starts, 20 innings 11 hits 4 Earned Runs 17 Ks  6 walks. Time for the Yanks to make their move. They made the trades. Now get it done on the field. Against a team that is in last place, no is the time. 4* RL Money NEW YORK YANKEES

Taking the REDS. Will fade Carrasco here. 3 starts in the minor in his injury rehab. 6.2 innings 6 hits 5 ERs 3 walks, 9 strikeouts - and of those 6 hits, 3 HRs. Call me crazy, I have been called much worse. But right off the bat I can't see him going more than 4-5 innings. Then we get to a Mets bullpen, that honestly, isn't all that high on my list of things I want to help me win. Add in an offense, and team for that matter, that has stayed put and not make any deals to help itself. Reds at least addressed their woeful bullpen and are trying to make a playoff push. For the Reds, Sonny Gray has actually pitched decent on the road this year. 5 starts, a 3.33 ERA. I'll grab the small dog here. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS

Taking the BLUE JAYS, going RUN LINE. People excited in Toronto. Team is home for the first time in what seems like forever. Big trade to get a solid pitcher. Bullpen help. That will add more excitement to the team. On the flip side, Royals in surrender mode at the deadline, battling the Twins for the AL Central basement. Give me the home team here. KC battled and scraped across 4 runs last night, I think we see another 3+ win for Toronto this afternoon. 4* RL Money TORONTO BLUE JAYS
