MLB Odds: Mets-Royals in Season Opener - Handicappers Hideaway

After butting heads in the 2015 World Series, the Kansas City Royals and
New York Mets will meet again Sunday night (8:30 PM ET, ESPN) in the
2016 season-opener for both teams. Kansas City beat the Mets in five
games to win the Fall Classic for the first time since 1985. This year,
New York (+1200) is a step above the Royals (+1400) on the World Series
futures market.



Oddsmakers have the Mets and Matt Harvey as a -110 moneyline favorite while the total is sitting at 7.5.

Edinson Volquez will be the Opening Day pitcher for the home side.
Volquez enjoyed something of a renaissance in Kansas City, posting a
3.82 FIP and topping the 200-inning mark for the first time, but he's
still not as dominant as he was during his 2008 rookie campaign with the
Cincinnati Reds.



New York will respond with Matt Harvey (3.05 FIP), who was brilliant
last year in his return from Tommy John surgery. However, Harvey's
brilliance only translated to a 17-12 team record and 1.27 betting units
in profit during the regular season, and the Mets' bullpen coughed up
both of Harvey's starts during the World Series. Volquez, who dueled
with Harvey in both games, was good for 9.43 units last year on a team
record of 22-11.

MLB Opening Day: Blue Jays and Rays open their 2016 seasons with Aces on the mound - Handicappers Hideaway

The Toronto Blue Jays and the Tampa Bay Rays meet at Tropicana Field on
Sunday as they open their 2016 MLB Seasons. The Blue Jays are on a quest
to stay at the top of the AL East Standings and the Rays will have a
hard time trying to compete with their low payroll and most of their
former young stars playing elsewhere, but with their usual good pitching
should stay in many games this season.



The Blue Jays will give the ball to starter Marcus Stroman in this one. Right hander Stroman is 0-0 this season with a 0.00 ERA.



It'll be Chris Archer toeing the rubber for the Rays in this contest.
Right hander Archer is 0-0 with a 0.00 ERA so far this season.

In their last action, Tampa Bay was a 12-3 winner on the road against
the Blue Jays. Bettors on Tampa Bay at 141 on the moneyline collected
their winnings from that game, while the total score (15) sent OVER
bettors home happy as well.



Toronto lost its last outing, a 4-3 result against the Royals on October
23. Bettors who backed the Royals at 128 on the moneyline won on the
day, and the total score (7) sent UNDER bettors to the payout window.

MLB Opening Day: Cardinals and Pirates Kick the 2016 Season off at 1 pm EST - Handicappers Hideaway

The St. Louis Cardinals and Pittsburgh Pirates are set to kick-off the
2016 MLB season on Sunday when they meet at PNC Park. Going into the
season the Cardinals have more question marks than they have had in
years with holes to fill all over the field and on the mound but should
still be competitive in their division. The Pirates have virtually
remained unchanged and should be a staple at the top of the standings
this year. The question will be whether the Pirates can put an entire
season together of quality baseball instead of turning it on a couple of
months into the season.



The Cardinals will trot Adam Wainwright out to the mound in this one.
Right hander Wainwright has a 0-0 record and a 0.00 ERA this season.



Meanwhile, it'll be Francisco Liriano who starts for the Pirates. Left hander Liriano is 0-0 with a 0.00 ERA so far this season.



Oddsmakers currently have the Pirates listed as 120-moneyline favorites versus the Cardinals, while the game's total is sitting at 6.



Last time out for Pittsburgh, they were a 4-0 loser as they battled the
Cubs on the road. Moneyline bettors who got the Cubs at -128 were
rewarded, while the 4 combined runs moved the game UNDER for totals
bettors.



The Cardinals were a 6-4 loser in their most recent outing on the road
against the Cubs. That made winners of bettors who got Chicago at -115
on the moneyline, while the total score (10) was good news for OVER
bettors.



St. Louis:

Team record: 101-65 SU

Current Streak: lost 3 straight games.

St. Louis is 1-6 SU in its last 7 games

St. Louis is 0-5 SU in its last 5 games on the road

The total has gone OVER in 5 of St. Louis's last 7 games when playing Pittsburgh



Pittsburgh:

Team record: 98-65 SU

The total has gone UNDER in 8 of Pittsburgh's last 11 games
