It’s a full, 15-game slate Tuesday night as every team plays at 7:05 pm EST, or later. Six games have an over/under of at least nine total runs, with the SF/COL matchup leading the way with 10 projected runs (I’ve also seen LAA/TEX hit 10 total runs on a couple sites). However, we’re still waiting on Vegas totals from two other games: MIN/HOU and NYY/OAK.
As for pitching, only two teams are considered heavy favorites (-200 odd, or greater) on Tuesday. That honor belongs to the Dodgers and Indians. We also have two games where the over/under is 7.5 total runs. The Dodgers and Phillies are the favorites in those contests.

Pitcher
Robbie Ray (ARI): $8,700 vs. SD
It’s always a perk when you see one of your higher ranked players priced lower than they should be. I have Ray ranked as the second-best pitcher on the docket (behind Justin Verlander). Yet, FanDuel has Ray listed as the seventh-most expensive pitcher in Tuesday’s player pool. Ray has allowed only one run in back-to-back starts and has punched out at least seven batters during those contests. While he’s struggled against San Diego this season (7.27 ERA in 8.2 innings of work), the Padres are still 27th in runs scored (535 runs in 140 games) and second in team strikeouts (1,318) this year.
