MLB Betting Picks for Friday 4/9 - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

Another 50/50 day on Thursday but it could've been worse. We got an excellent start from Corbin Burnes but then management pulled him after six scoreless and the Brewers bullpen blew it.

Ian Kennedy Nails Down Second Save

Texas Rangers reliever Ian Kennedy recorded his second save of the season and struck out the side during the club's 2-1 victory on Wednesday.

Jose Trevino Keeps Hitting

The veteran right-hander allowed six hits and one walk in the 2-1 victory. He also struck out eight batters. In his previous outing versus the Kansas City […]

Wes Benjamin Is One To Watch

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Wes Benjamin has been a slow riser since being drafted in the fifth round in 2014, and he wasn't all that impressive in 22 1/3 innings last season.
