Welcome to the Daily Dish, where we go through the MLB schedule for the day, giving you the starting pitcher matchups, and recent performance trends, and then listing some of our best bets if you choose to bet on the games.

We’re in the midst of a down week for our MLB bets, sitting under .500, but that’s going to happen in a season as long as this one. When you hit a rough patch, it’s important to look at your process to see if you’re doing anything differently or need to adjust. It’s also important to look at how much you’re betting to make sure you’re still comfortable with your margins.
