PITTSBURGH PIRATES(Maholm) +150 over Atlanta(Kawakami)(Lose 5-2)
PITTSBURGH PIRATES(Maholm) +152 over Atlanta(Kawakami) 1st 5innings only-------Pirates on a miserable 1-5 run and have scored 5 or more runs in a game only once in their last 10 games while Braves are on a 4-0 run in which they've scored 6 or more runs in each of those games. Why arent the Braves more of a favorite? That's what Im betting on; Braves are only 2-7 in games Kawakami has pitched in while the Pirates are 6-4 in games Maholm has started. Maholm is ok, and this spot is a good chance for Pitt to pick up a win.(Lose 2-0........This Pirate team is utterly hapless. Should look to bet against them every time they play)

OAKLAND A'S(Braden) +118 over Tigers(Scherzer)(Lose 10-2)
OAKLAND A'S(Braden) +113 over Tigers(Scherzer) 1st 5innings only-------Scherzer is back from the minors??? This guy totally sucked, now he's back. A's on a 4-0 run with good scoring; Tigers running 0-4. Although Damon and Cabrera have done well vs lhp's, the Tigers have a number of players below .230 vs lhp's.(Lose 4-0.........Scherzer must have picked something up; he had 14k's in 5innings)

Orioles(Guthrie) vs Blue Jays(Romero) UNDER 4(+100) 1st 5innings only---Give Guthrie respect; he's allowed only 3 ER in his last 20 innings, he's having a good year AND improving. Add to that the weakness of the Orioles' offense. Romero has the pitcher revenge against his last start. He's very good this year although his team seems to have some problems giving him run support.(Push 3-1)
