The All-Star Break is now in the rearview mirror, with the second half of the season now well underway in the MLB. There are some clear leaders and World Series favorites emerging, but as history has shown us, the second half is when the true favorites emerge, as we have seen teams fold coming down the stretch in the past, especially once teams make their moves at the trade deadline. It will be fun to watch it all unfold, but for now, we are taking things one week at a time. That means looking ahead at the rest of the week and trying to figure out which pitchers might help their team get a valuable win. Let’s take a look at some pitchers you should consider when wagering this week in the MLB.
MLB Top Pitchers after All-Star Break in the middle of the season | MLB Lines by MyBookie
MLB Week 15: Monday July 10 – Sunday July 23, 2023
Mitch Keller
Pittsburgh Pirates | No. 23
Bats: Right / Throws: Right
The Pirates are on a 4-game losing skid heading into their Tuesday tilt with the Cleveland Guardians, but there is a bit of a silver lining here, albeit a minor one. They will have Mitch Keller on the mound on Tuesday night, which means that their chances of breaking out of their current slump seem pretty decent. Keller comes into this one with a 9-4 record and a 3.31 ERA. The Pirates lost the last 2 starts heading into the break, but I think he returns refreshed and ready to get back to winning ways.

Luis Castillo
Seattle Mariners | No. 58
Bats: Right / Throws: Right
We don’t often have a pitcher with a losing record on these weekly lists, but I think Castillo looks like a good bet on Wednesday night. Castillo had won 3 straight games heading into his last start, where he was hit hard by the Detroit Tigers in a 7-6 loss, where Castillo was responsible for just 3 of those earned runs. Despite being 6-7 on the season, Castillo still has a rather respectable ERA of 2.96, and I think he gets back to winning ways in his start against the Twins on Wednesday night.

Tyler Glasnow
Tampa Bay Rays | No. 20
Bats: Left / Throws: Right
Glasnow has seen limited action this season, going 3-3 with a 3-78 ERA, but if his last start is anything to go bye, he might be ready to have a very solid second half of the season. Yes, that start came against the lowly Kansas City Royals, but Glasnow still looked sharp, pitching 6 full innings and surrendering just 1 ER. This Thursday, he will be on the mound to face a Baltimore Orioles team that hit him hard when they met earlier this season, but I think it will be Glasnow who gets the last laugh in this one.

Shohei Ohtani
Los Angeles Angels | No. 17
Bats: Left / Throws: Right
Honestly, it always feels like a little bit of a no-brainer to bet on the Angels whenever Ohtani starts, but it’s also fair to suggest that he is not always a lock. He is currently sitting at 7-5 on the season with a 3.50 ERA, but when he does struggle on the mound, he very often bails the team out with his bat. This Friday night, Ohtani will get the start against the slumping Pittsburgh Pirates. Ohtani lost 2 in a row prior to the break, but I think he comes back rested and ready to mow down the Pirates.
