My selection is on the 'over' between Washington and Baltimore at 4:05 pm et on Saturday.

This is a high posted total but it's for good reason. The forecast calls for warm temperatures in the high-80's along with a breeze blowing out to right field at Camden Yards on Saturday.

While neither team has been tearing the cover off the baseball lately, the pitching matchup presents the potential for a slugfest. Jake Irvin will take the ball for Washington. In his third big league season, we know what to expect from the right-hander. Irvin owns a 5.19 FIP and 1.19 WHIP through nine starts this season, pretty much in line with his career 4.82 FIP and 1.27 WHIP. He'll be starting on short rest (four days) on Saturday. The last time he did that he was tagged for six earned runs over six innings against the Phillies on April 30th.

Kyle Gibson gets another turn in the rotation for the Orioles. You have to wonder whether he has anything left in the tank at this point of his career. So far this season, Gibson has posted a ridiculous 10.90 FIP and 2.49 WHIP in 11 2/3 innings of work, allowing a whopping seven home runs already. The Nationals are used to seeing Gibson in better form and with that being said, their current hitters are still a healthy 23-for-62 (.371) with a .999 OPS against him.

Neither bullpen has been air-tight this season with both ranking in the bottom-third of the majors in terms of xFIP. We'll call for plenty of runs on the board on Saturday. Take the over (8*).

Saturday MLB Free play. My selection is on the 'over' between the Mets and Yankees at 1:05 pm et on Saturday.

The forecast calls for temperatures approaching or eclipsing 80 degrees along with a fairly strong breeze blowing out to left field at Yankee Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Conditions are ripe for a high-scoring affair.

The Yankees check in third in the majors in weighted on base average over the last seven days. Despite Mets starter Griffin Canning's early season success, the Yanks should be happy to see him as their current hitters have gone 12-for-36 (.333) with a 1.006 OPS against him. We're anticipating some regression from Canning moving forward as he owns a career 4.68 FIP and 1.33 WHIP (3.48 FIP and 1.26 WHIP so far this season).

Clarke Schmidt will counter for the Yankees. Current Mets hitters haven't seen much of him but what they have seen, they've liked, going 6-for-17 (.353) with a 1.038 OPS against him. Schmidt hasn't been able to settle in after starting the season on the I.L., logging a 5.01 FIP and 1.28 WHIP through five outings.

Both bullpens are certainly capable but I expect the offenses to rule the day on Saturday. Take the over.

Second Round Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between Winnipeg and Dallas at 8 pm et on Saturday.

We've seen consecutive low-scoring affairs in this series and four of the first five games have stayed 'under' the total. We'll take the contrarian route ahead of Saturday's Game 6 and call for a much higher-scoring contest as the Stars try again to close out the Jets.

While the Stars were shut out in Game 5, we're likely to see a much different story unfold as the scene shifts back to Dallas on Saturday. Note that the Stars have averaged 3.5 goals per game on home ice this season while the Jets allow 2.9 goals per contest on the road.

I do think Winnipeg can help this total along, noting that it hasn't suffered much of a drop-off at all in offensive production on the road this season, averaging 3.2 goals per game (compared to its 3.3 goals per game season scoring average). We saw plenty of fight from the Jets facing elimination in Game 5 as they skated to a 4-0 win on home ice. Scoring hasn't necessarily been their problem when things have gone bad in these playoffs - they've been held to fewer than two goals only twice and have scored four or more goals in five of 12 games to date (including in both previous games when facing elimination). Keeping the puck out of their own net, particularly on the road, has been a glaring issue as they've given up 7, 5, 5, 5 and 3 goals in their five playoff road games to date.

Since being held to one goal in their playoff opener on home ice, the Stars have produced 4, 6, 4, 5 and 3 goals in their last four home contests. Take the over (10*).
