There isn\u2019t a team in the game employing a four-man rotation at the moment, which means that each week, each team will send out five different starting pitchers. That\u2019s five players from each of Major League Baseball\u2019s 30 teams, meaning that at least 150 different names will hit the betting board in a given week. <\/p>\n
It can be tough to keep track of all those names, and what kind of form each of those pitchers is in. Here\u2019s a list of five pitchers whose names you\u2019re going to want see on the betting board in the coming weeks, because they\u2019ll probably offer some value.<\/p>\n
Corbin won\u2019t be catching anyone by surprise in the second half of the season after he was named to his first All Star Game, but Corbin\u2019s 10-1 record with a 2.40 ERA and 0.98 WHIP haven\u2019t been enough for oddsmakers to price him as an elite starter. He is especially deserving of joining the elite ranks when at home, where he has limited opposing hitters to a .184 batting average while posting a 6-0 record with a 1.56 ERA and 0.93 WHIP.<\/p>\n
Corbin\u2019s 10-1 record is impressive, but what\u2019s even more impressive is Arizona\u2019s 16-2 record when Corbin takes the hill. Bettors that have backed Corbin this season have profited 13.45 units.<\/p>\n
The best ERA in baseball since June 4 doesn\u2019t belong to Justin Verlander, or Clayton Kershaw, or Cliff Lee. It belongs to Jeremy Hefner. Not everything has come up roses for Hefner in that time. He\u2019s allowed nine unearned runs in those seven starts, but he\u2019s kept men off the basepaths, posting a 1.07 WHIP, and the Mets have been victorious in each of his last five outings.

Garza may be throwing for opposing scouts as much as he is for the Cubs right now, but that hasn\u2019t stopped him from posting incredible numbers over his last five outings. After a rough start against the Reds in which he allowed nine runs over five innings of work, Garza has posted a 0.97 ERA with a 0.86 WHIP in his last trips to the mound, all Cubs wins. While Garza dazzles opposing scouts, bettors would be wise to get in on the action.<\/p>\n
Turner was one of the pieces that headed to Miami as part of the Anibal Sanchez trade. His numbers in Detroit were hardly impressive, but he\u2019s been a different man since bringing his talents to South Beach.<\/p>\n
After posting a 3.38 ERA with a 0.98 WHIP in seven starts with the Fish a year ago, Turner has been even better this season. Through eight starts, Turner is 3-1 with a 2.33 ERA with a 1.11 WHIP. The team\u2019s 5-3 record when he takes the hill isn\u2019t all that impressive, but the 3.58 units he\u2019s made bettors is impressive. Backing a lousy Marlins team certainly isn\u2019t for the squeamish, but if you pick your spots, backing Turner could be a very profitable endeavor.<\/p>\n
Norris\u2019s story is similar to a couple of the pitchers above. First, each of his starts is effectively an audition for contending clubs, and second, backing the Astros is not for the squeamish. You\u2019re going to want to pick your spots when riding with Norris. One spot specifically: Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas. Over the last two seasons, bettors that have backed Norris at home have profited 4.90 units, with Norris going 8-4 with a 1.99 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in those games.<\/p>\n
Norris won\u2019t get another start at home until after the All Star break, but you might want to keep an eye out for when he does.<\/p>\n
