Every MLB team is in action on Friday as a fresh batch of series begins throughout the league.

Today's MLB narrative: Two teams leading their respective divisions, the Chicago Cubs and Houston Astros, meet for a three-game set at Daikin Park. Game 1 is a pick'em, and so too is a pitchers' duel between the Houston Texans and Seattle Mariners with Nathan Eovaldi and Logan Gilbert on the mound.

MLB odds and betting insights

  • Houston (48-33) has been hitting the cover off the ball lately, ranking inside the top 10 for batting average, slugging percentage and wRC+ over the last 14 days. Chicago (48-33) starts rookie Cade Horton, who sports a 3.73 ERA through eight starts. The Astros are 30-13 at home this season.
  • Eovaldi is returning from a month-long absence and was lights out beforehand. His 1.56 ERA and 0.81 WHIP across 12 starts would lead the majors if he had enough innings to qualify. Gilbert is making his third start since returning from injury and sports a 3.12 ERA and 0.89 WHIP. This game's 7.5 run total is the lowest of the night.
  • The Blue Jays (43-37) are an MLB-best 47-33 on the run line, and are locked in a pick'em against the struggling Red Sox (40-42), who have lost five straight. Brayan Bello is pitching for Boston, and Toronto has a combined .319 batting average against him in 102 plate appearances.
  • Kansas City (38-43) is an underdog at home in its series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers (51-31). L.A. is fresh off a sweep of Colorado and is averaging 6.3 runs in its last 10 games. Rookie Noah Cameron is tasked with slowing down that lineup and owns a stellar 2.03 ERA.
