NBA and NHL Playoffs have started which means baseball starts to take a backseat in mainstream the world of sports. Â However it’s Patriots Day, which means Boston and Tampa Bay took the field at 11 A.M. today. Below are the plays from the remaining games on Monday night:
Low-Scoring Play
Milwaukee Brewers @ Chicago Cubs – John Lackey is the best pitcher available. The Brewers are a strong team and have been scoring runs, however, I like Lackey and the Cubs to pick up the intensity and go on a little bit of a run these next couple of weeks. Â Lackey has the ability to contribute strikeouts and pick up the win.
Targets: Lackey, Shwarber, Bryant
High-Scoring Plays
Arizona Diamondbacks @ Los Angeles Dodgers – Neither team is throwing its ace, which could make this game high-scoring.  Both offenses are in the top of the league in scoring.  The game finished low-scoring, last night, which means a nice rebound for the lineups could be in store.
Targets: Lamb, Owings, Drury
Los Angeles Angels at Houston Astros – Jessie Chavez and Charlie Morton take the mound one night after the Angels were shutout and the Astros were rained out. Mike Trout also went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts on Sunday. Neither pitcher inspires fear in the opposing lineup, and there should be plenty of runs.
Targets: Trout, Escobar
Undervalued Play
Chris Owings – ARI – OF/SS – He is targeted above, however, he could be a cheap outfielder if you’re struggling to make a lineup. Â He is batting .356 with 1 home run on a team that can score runs. Owings will crack my starting lineup tonight.
