Mariners vs. Athletics, 7:15PM ET

BET: Julio Rodriguez 1+ HR (+320)

Eugenio Suarez was the man on fire for the Mariners last night with two dingers as they tore apart the Athletics, but tonight we've pivoting to another big hitter in the lineup in Julio Rodriguez. The rookie Mariner has already had success against tonight's starter for Oakland, James Kaprielian, this season, batting at a .444 avg with a home run to go along with the impressive numbers.

Nationals vs. Padres, 8:40PM ET

BET: Manny Machado 1+ HR (+350)

Josiah Gray (7-8, 4.79 ERA) is on the mound for the Nats tonight in downtown San Diego, and he's a pitcher that you want in your ballpark if you are an opposition hitter. Gray has given up dingers in nine consecutive games, now - 17 in total during that span - and he should get another flogging tonight. Manny Macado has been feasting on the Nats pitching rotation, both this weekend and last weekend when the two teams played in Washington. It's the obvious choice because it's the right choice.
