After a week of high voltage in Major League Baseball stadiums, we come to a new week where we will have, in addition to many extremely interesting games, a league-wide change that could affect some teams and benefit others.
Starting Monday, MLB announced that it will limit the total number of pitchers that teams can have on their rosters to 13. Teams that have had problems with pitching so far this season are not happy with this new rule, since they will have to play with a more limited number of pitchers.
MLB hopes that this decision will help both the hitters and the pace of the game. The bullpens of the teams right now are very wide and deep and have a wide range of pitchers who throw very hard. Now, having one less option in the bullpen will mean fewer pitching changes in the game, which often clogs games.
–
Now, we will have to wait and see how this change affects the teams that continue to have an excellent season. Such as the Yankees who continue to lead the AL East division with an excellent record of 49 wins and 17 losses and with an incredible record of 9 wins and 1 loss in their last 10 games.
The other two teams that are also on a very good streak in their last 10 games with 8 wins and 2 losses are the Cleveland Guardians who are very close to the Twins in first place in the AL Central division and the Atlanta Braves who thank this record have been able to get within 5.5 games of the NY Mets in the NL East.
Now, this Monday begins different series that we are sure will be very electrifying and that will be full of emotions in each of the games

June 20 MLB Game: New York Yankees (-135) vs. Tampa Bay Rays (+115)
Again and in less than 1 week, the NY Yankees will have a 3-game series starting this Monday, June 20, 2022, against the Tampa Bay Rays, but this time it will be at Tropicana Field, home of the Rays.
The Yankees come with the mission to apply the same dose as in the 3 games they played last week at Yankee Stadium, pass the broom and take the 3 wins to continue commanding their division and demonstrating that they are the candidates for the championship title this season.
The Yankees are the team that is in the best shape in the entire MLB, in all aspects of the game they have managed to demonstrate that their level is far above the rest of the teams and, they aspire to continue demonstrating it this week. Although they cut the streak of 9 consecutive wins yesterday when they were defeated by the Blue Jays with a score of 9-10, they come to this game as favorites to win.
On the other hand, Tampa Bay Rays are one of the teams that are in the same division as the Yankees, the AL East, but they have not had the expected first half of the season, as they are currently in third place, 13 games behind the Yankees.
For this game, the Yankees announced Gerrit Cole, one of their best starting pitchers, who has a record this season of 6-1 and a 3.33 ERA. While Tampa Bay will have Shane McClanahan who has a 7-3 record and 1.84 ERA.
NY Yankees vs. Tampa Bay Rays Betting Pick: NY Yankees
June 20 MLB Game: San Francisco Giants (+130) vs. Atlanta Braves (-150)
With no days off, this Monday kicks off a 3-game series between two excellent MLB teams that promises to be the best midweek series in the league, the San Francisco Giants visit the defending champions, the Atlanta Braves, at SunTrust Park, starting this Monday, June 20, 2022.
Both teams have had somewhat inefficient starting pitching and, as a result, both are not in first place in their respective divisions. Despite this, we are sure that this will be a series that will be defined according to the pitchers that both teams will use, as they will put all the meat on the grill to take the wins in this series.
Atlanta Braves are in second place in the NL East division, with a record of 38 wins and 29 losses. Atlanta is a team that has accustomed all their fans to play at an incredible level when they play at home, so we expect this to come out at least in this first game of the series. The Braves announced for this first game their starting pitcher Max Fried, a 28-year-old American who has a very good record of 7-2 with a 2.90 ERA.
San Francisco Giants hope to return to being that powerful team that was in different World Series in the last years and, although they have not had a good first part of the season, at the moment it seems that they have found the formula that will take them on the road to victory and, with 7-3 in their last 10 games, they have managed to place themselves only 3 games behind the Dodgers, who lead the NL West division.
The Giants announced Logan Webb as their starting pitcher for this game, who also has a good 6-2 record with a 3.43 ERA.
San Francisco Giants vs. Atlanta Braves Betting Pick: Atlanta Braves
June 20 MLB Game: St. Louis Cardinals (+135) vs. Milwaukee Brewers (-160)
This Monday, June 20, 2022, we will have the start of what will be, without a doubt, the most exciting and high-voltage series in all of the MLB, when the Milwaukee Brewers host the St. Louis Cardinals for three consecutive days, at American Family Field.
Why we say that this series will be the most exciting in the MLB this week? Is simply because both teams are currently tied for first place in the NL Central division, with a very good record of 38 wins and 30 losses.
Likewise, we have to point out that, both teams have different stats in terms of home and road games. The Brewers have a record of 15-12 playing at home and 23-18 playing on the road. While Cardinals are 21-13 playing at home and 17-17 playing on the road. So based on the stats, it would be tough to predict which team would come away with the win.
For this game, the homeowners announced as starting pitcher Corbin Burnes, one of their pitchers who, despite not having a good record (4-4), has been one of the most consistent in their rotation, accumulating 100 strikeouts in 78.2 innings pitched and, 2.52 ERA.
While the Cardinals announce 33-year-old veteran Miles Mikolas who, while not having been fortunate enough to have a better record (5-4), has a 2.62 ERA and a very good WHIP of 0.97.
Louis Cardinals vs. Milwaukee Brewers Betting Pick: Milwaukee Brewers
June 20 MLB Game: Arizona D-backs (+150) vs. San Diego Padres (-180)
Finally, the Arizona D-backs travel to San Diego for a 3-game series at Petco Park starting this Monday, June 20 in what will be a very intense series between two teams in the same division.
The Arizona D-backs have been going from strength to strength so far this season. After a very good start to the season, their performance has dropped so much that they are currently in fourth place in the NL West division with a record of 32 wins and 36 losses. One of the main problems of the D-backs so far this season has been that they have not been able to maintain their level of play.
Arizona will have Zach Davies on the mound as their starting pitcher, one of the pitchers who have been unlucky in the 13 games he has started since he has barely had a decision in 5 games (2-3).
On the other hand, San Diego Padres are one of the 3 best teams in this division, they are fighting for first place in the NL West with the Dodgers and now the Giants have joined them. The Padres have to improve their performance at home, even though they have a 17-13 record, we can see that on the road they are a much better team, showing a 24-14 record.
For this game, San Diego will have on the mound at Petco Park the Japanese Yu Darvish, who will be making his 13th start of the year and right now has a 6-3 record.
Arizona D-backs vs. San Diego Padres Betting Pick: San Diego Padres
