Francisco Liriano took his second loss of the season when he gave up four runs to the Milwaukee Brewers in six innings of work. He struck out seven Brewer hitters, but he also gave up two home runs.

by Guy Bruhn - 4/14/2014

Jake Peavy (0-0) returns to the place he spent 5 seasons before changing Sox as Boston visits Chicago and Erik Johnson (0-1).

by Tony Sink - 4/14/2014

The Marlins and Tom Koehler (1-1) aim to remedy a recent skid as they welcome Stephen Strasburg (1-1) and Washington to town Tuesday night. Strasburg makes his 4th start of the year and looks to answer whether he's turned the corner or just had a fluke outing against the Marlins last time out.

Pittsburgh Pirates at Cincinnati Reds Free MLB Picks & Odds
by Josh Schonwald - 4/14/2014

The Pirates are 2 for 2 when Gerrit Cole (2-0) takes the mound and they look to continue that trend when taking on Mike Leake (1-1) and the division rival Cincinnati Reds. Cole is starting off strong in his first full year as a starter, allowing 2 and 3 runs in his two starts. The Pirates offense has eased the pressure by scoring 17 runs in that span but Cole's 10 strikeout performance in his last outing definitely doesn't hurt.

by Guy Bruhn - 4/14/2014

Two struggling pitchers with skyrocketing ERA's meet up as the Rays' Jake Odorizzi (1-1) takes on Miguel Gonzalez (0-1) and the Orioles Tuesday night.

by Tony Sink - 4/14/2014

Chicago Cubs at New York Yankees Free MLB Picks & Odds
by Josh Schonwald - 4/14/2014

Jason Hammel (2-0) looks to continue his hot start with the Cubs as they get an up close and personal look at what could have been against Masahiro Tanaka (1-0) who chose the Yankees over Chicago this past offseason. Hammel has been a pleasant surprise on a 1-year, $6 million deal as he's given up just 5 hits this season and has posted an ERA of 2.63.

Atlanta Braves at Philadelphia Phillies Free MLB Picks & Odds
by Tony Sink - 4/14/2014

Atlanta's David Hale (0-0) has had two solid outings to start the season but it hasn't yet translated to the win column.

Hale didn't allow a run in his season debut against the Nationals but the Braves gave up his 1-0 lead for a no-decision.
