The Athletics open a three-game set in the Bronx on Tuesday night, and the setup is pretty clear from the jump. New York is 7-2, sitting atop the AL East, while the Athletics are 3-6 and still trying to find a steadier rhythm after an uneven opening stretch. First pitch at Yankee Stadium is set for 7:05 p.m. ET, with the Yankees sending Cam Schlittler to the mound against Aaron Civale for the Athletics. The team name here is simply the Athletics, not “None Athletics,” so I cleaned that up for the preview. This is also an interesting market because New York is being priced like the clearly better roster, which it is, but the handicap still comes down to

The Dodgers head into Rogers Centre on Tuesday night looking to keep a four-game winning streak alive, and they have earned the market respect. Los Angeles is 8-2, sitting on top of the NL West, and already handled Toronto 14-2 in Monday’s opener of this World Series rematch. The Blue Jays are 4-6, have dropped five straight, and now have to deal with another difficult pitching matchup at 7:07 p.m. ET on Sportsnet.

That matters because the market is asking bettors to lay a pretty healthy number with the road team even though both offenses have been uneven.

Seattle heads into Globe Life Field on Tuesday night trying to stop a three-game skid, and the spot is not especially forgiving. The Mariners are 4-7, last in the AL West, and just dropped Monday’s opener 2-1 despite another quality outing from the rotation. Texas is 5-5, sitting second in the division, and finally picked up its first home win of the year. First pitch is set for 8:05 p.m. ET in Arlington, with George Kirby drawing the start for Seattle against Nathan Eovaldi for the Rangers. This is one of those games where the records do not tell the whole story. Seattle has pitched well enough to win more often than it has, but the offense keeps leaving almost
