TEXAS(Gabbard) +168 (BCLI line +135) over Cleve(Westbrook)--------------Despite the fact that Gabbard gave up 5 earned runs vs Cleveland in 4 innings last start(he only gave up 4 hits), he has proven himself to me by shutting down the Tigers. I dont really know right now why Boston got rid of him. With the Rangers coming off 2 wins over Cleveland, they certainly have the confidence to win this game. Westbrook is highly beatable, the Indians, I believe are overrated and this price is very good. (Lose 5-0......Fine performance by Gabbard....Rangers offense just absolutely pathetic....to be shutout by Westbrook. That is an embarrassment.)

STL(Reyes) -112 (BCLI line -127) over Pitt(Youman)---------------Despite what happened yesterday, I think you can play the Cardinals here. Rhb's hit .326 off Youman.....and Stl's best hitter bat right. Stl is batting .270 overall against Pitt's .253. Reyes is coming off 2 great starts during which he only allowed, like, 4 hits in all. And Reyes is very good (.231) against rhb's and Doumit is the only lhb on Pitt hitting above .258. (Lose 5-4......Reyes does fine....Stl out hits then 9-8 and.........reigning world series MVP(what a joke) David Eckstein makes the game losing error. FUCK saint LouSHIT)

CUBS(Marshall) -138 (BCLI line -155) over Phi(Lohse)-----------Marshall is probably the best 5-4 pitcher in baseball and Lohse allows batters to hit .280 off him. Lohse is extremely erratic. The only thing consistent about him is that he's not out there to walk people and everyone knows it. And the Cubs don't mind that because they swing away and dont take walks. Lohse did pitch 14 innings vs the Cubs in April and only allowed 2 runs. THIS IS A RISK TO GO AGAINST THAT. But I don't see how Lohse can be getting ripped by the likes of Oakland, Seattle and Washington and then come into Chicago and beat Marshall. (Lose 10-6.......Marshall gets rocked?! Why is this shit happening to me? unbelievable)

AZ(Petit) +195 over SD(Peavy) (Lose 11-0)
Az +1.5 (-120) over SD----------------Petit is getting the job done and the Padres offense is way too weak to be this big a favorite over anyone. I would like to see more lhb's than AZ has in a lineup that I'm betting against Peavy but the fact that AZ got 10 hits off Peavy in 5 innings in April.........that's enough for me with Petit and this price.(Lose 11-0)
