ROYALS(Hochevar) +170 over Boston(Penny)---------Hochevar is harder to hit than Penny(.242 vs .289). Good opportunity for Royals to breakout of their offensive anemia. Luke's are doing good; French won for BCLI yesterday, Luke Scott had 7 RBI's the day before that. I think this is worth the price.(Win 8-6)

ASTROS(Ortiz) -120 over Washington(Lannan)----------Excluding Berkman, the Astros are a team that can hit lhp's(.286, .478 slg). Ortiz has the revenge against his prior start in which he got rocked. This is a suspiciously low line to go against a team that loses more than 2 for every 1 win. I think its because the Nationals have won 5 of the last 6 games Lannan has started. That's gotta be blind luck......and I think it should end here.(Win 9-4)

MARLINS(Miller) +100 over Arizona(Petit)---------Arizona has somehow won their last 5 games.........(freakish)........but they're terrible vs lhp's and Petit has put up consistently atrocious numbers this year(Win 14-7........Brett Carroll.....Knoxville)
