MLB Picks – The “Over” Train Continues for Arizona Diamondback MLB Bettors

BetOnline Sportsbook is back with more MLB betting analysis for you to sink your teeth into! The ‘over’ train is continuing for the D’Backs, and check out who joins them this week.

Season Standings

1: Arizona Diamondbacks (46-28-2) – Running into the offensively challenged Rays was the best thing that happened to the D’Backs probably all season long. The team took two out of three in the Sunshine State over the weekend, holding Tampa Bay to just seven hits in the process. RHP Edwin Jackson’s no-no was made all the more sweet by the fact that this was the team that left him out of the rotation in the playoffs in the run to the World Series and then unceremoniously traded him to Detroit the next season. Still, at +18 towards the ‘over’ on the season, Arizona isn’t leaving this list any time soon.

2: Milwaukee Brewers (39-31-5) – The Brew Crew went from a team that was challenging for the top spot in the ‘over’ power poll to one that may be falling off it any week now. Every week for the last month, Milwaukee has continued to drop towards the rest of the pack, and with just another questionable week of ‘totals’, it will finally find its way back off of this list.

3: Los Angeles Dodgers (41-33-1) – Offensively speaking, the Dodgers have had a great last four days. Yes, the team was held to one run by the Yanks to start a three game set, but aside from that, there have been 25 runs plated over the other three games. The offense is now up to 4.68 runs per game, which in theory, should be enough for a team managed by Joe Torre playing in one of the most pitcher friendly parks in the game.

Who’s Hot?

1: New York Yankees (5-1) – The Bronx Bombers took two out of three from their former skipper over the weekend and used a four run ninth inning to pull it off on Sunday night. The Yanks are starting to look like the Yanks, which is bad news for both the Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Rays who are now firmly in a chase position in relation to the men in pinstripes.

2: Baltimore Orioles (5-1) – Someone break up the Orioles! The team has won four straight games and has all of a sudden posted eight straight of at least four runs scored. Not bad for a team that is only "up to" averaging 3.45 runs per game, eh?

3: Cleveland Indians (4-2) – Then there are the Indians… The Tribe is starting to resemble the team that had a 5.00+ ERA a season ago. Their ERA is inching closer to that point this year at 4.85, and allowing at least a touchdown on the board four times this week didn’t help matters. Both Cincinnati and Philadelphia scored at least 19 runs in three game sets this weekend, which yielded just a 1-5 SU record as well.
