Marlins -130
With Beckett having less success in his career on the road this is somewhat an odd call by me. Usually i wouldnt play Beckett as road chalk , however I feel he is being somewhat underestimated after the Seattle start. His road numbers arent that much worse its just NOT dominanting and Marlins dont have the same success away as they do as Pro Player. Mitre coming off a big win vs Halladay and I think Chicago will struggle vs a power pitcher . Odd stat of the day: This is only Beckett's 5 th career start in the month of JUNE!
Under 9.5 +108 Cubs & Under First 5innings 5 runs +113
Doesnt this have trap written all over it???? Both teams real inconsistent with the bats and I'll take my chances the pens dont blow this. Wind is blowing out and teh line suggest over I just hoping its wrong today. froemming behind eh dish will hopefully aid my cause.
Under 8.5 -112 Cleveland
Westbrook is one of two things usaully : Very good or very bad! I think at home vs Colorado with Helton in a major slump its likely he can be very good. And while Francisd is usuaklly very bad away from Coors he does face a Tribe lineup which struggles vs LHP and barely averages 3runs a game when a LH starts. Clevelands pen is tough at home and Colorados is usually hit or miss but has improvd IMO since May.
Under 9 -119 Pittsburgh
Yanks arent hitting BUT they havent hit all season on the road. They have much better numbers at home then away. Thing is Mussina has been his sharpest at home and Wells is on a roll with just a hiccup along teh way in Cincy which is a hitters park.
Padres -128
Take a shot that Peavy will bounce back and is further removed from his FLU battle. Det just is struggling offensively and not that SD isnt but they are playing without Guillen and couldnt hit at Coors!!
Under First 5 Innings 4 Runs -101
Peavy will hopefully return to form and JJ has been real good last 2 months!
Cardinals -160 & Under 9.5 -119
Carpenter has been awesome away 5-0 with a 2.41 ERA and better he returns to Toronto to show them what they gave up on! Cards always seem to avoid losing streaks and get Chad Gaudin who was rocked last time out and probably should still be in Triple A. WHy Toronto felt he was better then David Bush I just dont know.
DRays -106
Dont like the move to TB as a fav but hey how is Milwaukee favored in the first place? Brew Crew on a losing streak since they lost to NYY last Wed nite and TB has a solid home record and worse if Fossum is healthy the Brew Crew struggle vs LHP{except Carlos Lee of course}.
Diamondbacks +113 & -1.5RL(ARL) +182
Its a different team and a different season but Vazquez dominanted Chicago in 2 April starts last year. Now this year he is on a tear with 8 great starts out of 10 (then a solid one and awful one) and most of teh damage was done away from the BOP. So great situation here as El Duque has been getting hit fairly hard lately despite recording wins!
Giants +280 First 5 Innings & -1.5 runs +496
The one thing that SF can do is hit LHP so hopefully Santana makes a msitake or two early and we can take advantage of that.
Over 5 -111 Mets /A's
Glavine has struggled awat from Shea and Blanton has struggled most of the year.
A's +102 & -1.5runs +202
Glavine has yet to lead NY to a road win in his 4 starts. Since I think teh SP will get hit I think Oakland has the clear pen advantage.
Mariners +113 & -1.5runs +220
Meche has more success at Safeco and Leiber despite his success this year usually tends to struggle on the road and vs LH heavy lineups like Seattle's.
