2023 MLB odds: Best, worst teams against spread; updated World Series lines
The midway point of the MLB season is here. Read to find out how some of the teams with the shortest World Series odds have fared against th...JULY 10, 2023
Scott Barlow - Locks down save No. 11Barlow fired a scoreless ninth inning to pick up the save Sunday against the Guardians. He allowed one hit and struck out a batter in the process.
ImpactBarlow should've ended the game with a strikeout of Will Brennan, but things got extended after Brennan reached on a dropped third strikeout to bring the tying run to the plate. Barlow wound up getting Myles Straw to line out to close out the game and grab his second save in June. The 30-year-old now sits at a 4.09 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 44:16 K:BB over 33 innings this year. He's certainly could be another trade candidate for the Royals after they already shipped out Aroldis Chapman, where he'd likely move into a setup role on a playoff team.

Ryan Yarbrough - Impresses in return from ILYarbrough (2-4) got the win over the Guardians on Sunday, allowing just one run on six hits and a walk while striking out five over six innings.
ImpactYarbrough was fantastic in his return to the mound, allowing just one extra-base hit and tying his season-high with five strikeouts. It was the first time he's reached six innings in four starts, though he was only one out short in his last start before being forced to leave the game. The 30-year-old will head into the break with a 5.29 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 19:8 K:BB over 32.1 innings and should stick in the rotation for the time being until Zack Greinke (shoulder) and Brad Keller (shoulder) are able to return from their respective injuries.
