*TEXAS(Gabbard) -107 (BCLI line -158) over Oak(Gaudin)---------Wow, how could this line be so wrong? Rangers have rocked Gaudin not once but twice, on Aug 7th and July 17th. Gaudin's ERA was 2.41 on June 3rd......and now its 4.06. He's become hittable, rockable and wild. Gabbard may walk some people sometimes, but hitters have hit in the low .200's against him all year. I like him. A's offense showing no particular skill vs lhp's at .252, and a profound overall offensive weakness all year. I didnt know this until recently but Oakland's bullpen is not so great, ranking only 22nd of all teams in ERA with 21 Blown Saves against the Rangers 9 BS's and a high 4th best ranking in ERA. (Pitching Change.....Unreal: Rangers put in Mendoza for 2 innings, Gaudin gets rocked(which was part of this bet) and A's get beat by Rangers bullpen(which was another part of this bet) And guess who doesnt fucking get paid?)

KANSAS CITY(Bannister) +143 (BCLI line +110) over Nyy(Pettitte)---------Certainly, the Yanks offense is better, but in their last 7 games, look at who they've been shut down by: Hammel(shocking!), Sonnanstine(shocking!), Felix Hernandez(believable), Meche(improbable) and Washburn. Royals know they can beat anybody with Bannister on the hill; he has been great and he's given up more than 4 earned runs in a game only once this year. Pettitte has beaten me too much this year, but he definitely didnt win as a -330 favorite last start.....(Lose 11-5)
