Jack Perkins Has A 6.14 ERA, And Cleveland Has Won Four Straight

Jack Perkins is 3 and 11 with a 6.14 ERA. The Athletics have lost five in a row and have been outscored by 222 runs. Cleveland has won four straight and sits one game up in the AL Central. That is the biggest ticket on today's card, and it is priced like the mismatch it looks like on paper.

7 plays, 13.5 units to win, 22.34 at risk. First pitch is 10:10 Pacific at Citi Field. The last one is 4:20 at Camden Yards.

All Seven Plays And The Math

Every price here is laying juice, so the unit figures are what each ticket wins. The Guardians ticket alone is 6.90 of the 22.34 units at risk, just under 31 percent of the card. The Brewers at -200 are another 5.00. Those two favorites are the card. The other five plays are the supporting cast.

Guardians -230: Perkins, A Division Lead, And 6.90 Units At Risk

Cleveland is 80 and 75 with a run differential of plus 1. That is not a juggernaut. It is a club that has won four in a row, gone 7 and 3 in its last ten, and currently leads the White Sox by one game in the AL Central. Every remaining game has meaning in that dugout.

The Athletics are 61 and 94 with a run differential of -222, 32 and 48 on the road, and 3 and 7 in their last ten. They have allowed 892 runs. That is 5.75 a game. They have lost five straight.

Perkins's last five starts: 5 innings with 1 earned run, 5 innings with 1, 3 innings with 3, 5 innings with 4, then 6.2 innings with none against Seattle. He can throw a clean one. He also has a 6.14 ERA because the other nights look like September 3 and September 8. Williams has 235 strikeouts in 174 innings, a 13.2 K/9, and a 1.10 WHIP. One of his last five starts was a disaster (1.1 innings, 5 earned runs on August 25). The other four were 2, 0, 2 and 2 earned runs, with 11, 13, 11 and 7 strikeouts.

At -230 I need Cleveland to win 69.7 percent of the time. Against a last place club with a 6.14 ERA starter on the road, I think that is the right number, and I sized it like I believe it. 3 units to win, 6.90 at risk. If Perkins throws another 6.2 and 0, this is the ticket that wrecks the card.

Rays -144: 54 And 26 At Home Against A 1.79 WHIP

Tampa Bay is 94 and 60, plus 79 in run differential, and 54 and 26 at Tropicana Field. That home mark is the best fact on this side of the card. They are 8 and 2 in their last ten and still first in the AL East.

Boston is 84 and 71 and a real team. The Red Sox are actually better on the road (46 and 34) than at Fenway (38 and 37), so this is not a "home team versus a club that can't travel" bet. It is a pitcher bet.

Patrick Sandoval is 1 and 6 with a 4.99 ERA and a 1.79 WHIP in 57.2 innings. Last time out he lasted 2.2 innings and allowed 4 earned runs. Griffin Jax has a 3.80 ERA in 104.1 innings, and his last two starts were 5 innings with 1 earned run and 5 innings with none, 9 strikeouts, 0 walks across those 10 innings. Jax got blown up on September 2 (2.2 innings, 6 earned runs). Since then he has looked like a starter again.

At -144 I need Tampa Bay about 59 percent of the time. A 54 and 26 home club against a 1.79 WHIP is that bet. The honest pushback is that Boston's road record is good, and Jax's season line is not an ace line.

Brewers -200: A 1.89 ERA On The Road In Baltimore

Milwaukee is 97 and 58 with a plus 199 run differential, 45 and 32 on the road, and 8 and 2 in its last ten. Baltimore is 75 and 80, 36 and 41 at Camden Yards, and has lost two straight.

Jacob Misiorowski: 15 and 5, 1.89 ERA, 0.81 WHIP, 243 strikeouts in 166.1 innings, 42 walks. That is a 13.1 K/9 and a 2.3 BB/9. His last five starts include a 4 inning, 5 earned run night on September 2. The other four: 0, 2, 1 and 0 earned runs. Brandon Young is 9 and 4 with a 3.65 ERA in 145.2 innings, which is a respectable number until you put it next to 1.89.

Camden Yards has played 8 or fewer combined runs in 45 of 79 finals this season, 57 percent, with an average of 8.47. That does not matter much on a moneyline. What matters is whether Milwaukee's rotation ace can handle a park that still gives up runs. At -200 I need the Brewers 66.7 percent of the time. The record, the run differential, and the ERA gap all say yes. The price is the whole argument against it.

Phillies -166: Sanchez Has Been Hit, And The Price Still Asks For 62 Percent

Cristopher Sanchez is 17 and 6 with a 2.93 ERA, 215 strikeouts, and 44 walks in 193.2 innings. That is a Cy Young line. It is also a line that has gotten messy in September. His last two starts: 6 innings, 6 earned runs, 10 hits on September 9, then 6.1 innings, 5 earned runs, 8 hits on September 15. The three starts before that included 7 shutout innings on August 29.

Jonah Tong has thrown 21 innings all year. His last start was the good one, 6 innings, 0 earned runs, 6 strikeouts against the Baltimore Orioles on September 14. His only other start was 5 innings and 4 earned runs against Miami on September 7. Sample size is the whole story on that side.

Philadelphia is 85 and 70, 44 and 36 on the road, 4 and 6 in its last ten, and has lost two straight. The Mets are 71 and 84, 36 and 44 at Citi Field. At -166 I need the Phillies 62.4 percent of the time. I am buying the season of Sanchez, not the last two starts, and I sized it 1.5 units because those last two starts exist. If Tong throws another 6 and 0, this is a grind.

Yankees -108: Burnes Has Thrown 7.2 Innings This Year

Corbin Burnes has two starts in 2026. Combined: 7.2 innings, 5.87 ERA. The first one was 3 innings, 0 earned runs on September 8. The second was 4.2 innings, 5 earned runs, 5 hits on September 14. That is not a season. That is a rehab sample with one ugly night in it.

Will Warren is 10 and 6 with a 3.89 ERA in 148 innings. His last three starts worth reading: 2.1 innings with 0 earned (short), 6 innings with 1, then 5.2 innings with 0 on September 14. He has been keeping New York in games.

The Yankees are 89 and 65, plus 141 in run differential, 47 and 33 on the road, 7 and 3 in their last ten. Arizona is 81 and 74 with a run differential of -5, 44 and 36 at Chase Field. Chase Field has gone 8 or fewer in 41 of 78 finals, 52.6 percent, average 8.78. This is not a total. It is a near pickem moneyline on a New York club that has outscored people by 141 runs against a starter who has not had a 2026 season yet. At -108 I need them 51.9 percent of the time. That is the cheapest favorite on the card, and it is 1.5 units because a short Burnes outing can still turn into a 4.2 and 5.

Two Unders At 8: Petco Helps, Houston Does Not

Both totals are 8. That is a whole number, so a game that lands on exactly 8 is a push. I counted every 2026 final at the two parks through September 19.

Marlins and Padres under 8 at -120, 2 units. Petco Park: 77 finals, 46 finished with 8 or fewer combined runs (59.7 percent), 39 finished under 8, and the average scoreboard was 7.75. That is a park that helps an under. San Diego is 48 and 29 at home, has won four straight, and is 9 and 1 in its last ten. Walker Buehler has a 4.58 ERA in 143.1 innings and lasted 4.2 innings with 2 earned runs last time. Sandy Alcantara has thrown 206 innings, which is a workhorse year, and his last four proper starts were 4, 4, 7 and 4 earned runs. The under is the park and San Diego's home run prevention. The counter is Alcantara, who has been getting hit. At -120 I need the games that do not push to go under 54.55 percent of the time. Petco's 59.7 percent at 8 or fewer is the case. The 7 ER start on September 8 is the case against.

Braves and Astros under 8 at -105, 1 unit. Daikin Park: 80 finals, 40 finished with 8 or fewer (50.0 percent), average 8.91. That park does not help you. Martin Perez has a 3.07 ERA in 137.2 innings and threw 7 shutout innings on September 10, then 6 innings with 2 earned on September 15. Hunter Brown has a 3.43 ERA in 97 innings, 10 strikeouts in 5 innings last time, and 4 earned runs the start before. Atlanta is 91 and 64 with a plus 118 run differential. Houston is 77 and 78, 3 and 7 in its last ten, 39 and 41 at home. I took 1 unit at -105 because the arms are the argument and the park is not. If this lands on 8, I get the money back. If Houston's 8.91 average shows up, I lose a unit I can afford.

The Argument Against This Card

The Guardians price is heavy. -230 needs 69.7 percent, and Cleveland's season is 80 and 75 with a run differential of plus 1. If Perkins throws like September 15 instead of like his ERA, 6.90 units are gone in one game that starts at 10:40 in the morning.

Sanchez has allowed 11 earned runs in his last two starts. Laying -166 on that version of him is the bet I am least comfortable with on the card, which is why it is 1.5 units and not 3.

Misiorowski already had a 4 inning, 5 earned run start this month. -200 does not leave room for another one of those in Baltimore.

Alcantara's recent starts are the opposite of an under. Petco has to do a lot of work if he gives up 4 again.

Burnes's second start was 4.2 innings and 5 earned runs. A near pickem on the Yankees is only cheap if he looks like September 8, not like September 14.

Boston's road record is 46 and 34. The Rays home mark is elite. The opponent is not a pushover.
