The Cleveland Guardians visit the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday night at Rogers Centre, with first pitch set for 7:07 p.m. ET. Cleveland enters at 14-12 and first in the AL Central, while Toronto is 10-14 and fourth in the AL East. The Guardians are trying to bounce back after a 2-0 loss to Houston, while the Blue Jays are looking to respond after a 7-3 loss to the Angels. This is a clear pitching-form matchup. Gavin Williams gets the ball for Cleveland, and he has been one of the better early-season arms in the American League. Toronto counters with Max Scherzer, whose name still carries weight, but the current numbers are rough. The market has Cleveland as a modest

The Colorado Rockies visit the New York Mets on Friday night at Citi Field, with first pitch set for 7:10 p.m. ET. Colorado enters at 10-16 and fifth in the NL West, while New York is 9-16 and fourth in the NL East. It is not a pretty record matchup, but it is still a useful betting spot because both teams have clear flaws and one obvious pitching gap.

The Rays are coming off a 6-1 win over Cincinnati, and the Twins are trying to stop a two-game slide after a 10-8 loss to the Mets. This matchup has a little extra interest because Taj Bradley gets the ball against his former team. Bradley has been excellent for Minnesota, while Drew Rasmussen gives Tampa Bay a low-WHIP starter with strong command. That is why the total is sitting at only 7.5, even with both teams showing

The Philadelphia Phillies head to Truist Park on Friday night to face the Atlanta Braves, with first pitch set for 7:15 p.m. ET. Philadelphia is 8-17 and stuck in a nine-game losing streak, while Atlanta is 18-8, first in the NL East, and already 8-2 against division opponents. That is a pretty sharp contrast for late April. One team is trying to stop the season from getting away early. The other is building separation. The game will be broadcast on APLTV, and the pitching matchup is expected to be Andrew Painter for Philadelphia against Grant Holmes for Atlanta. The Braves come in off a 7-2 win over Washington, where Ozzie Albies drove in four runs and JR Ritchie gave Atlanta
