TAMPA BAY RAYS(Hellickson) -145 over Tigers(Fister)----Tampa has only scored 6 runs in their last 3 games, but they did score 8 runs in 2 consecutive games before that. Batters have hit .323 off Fister since he's pitched for Detroit. But you wanna be here today cuz look at the LL's yesterday: Mark Ellis 4-5 in Colorado, AJ Ellis 2-4, HR for the Dodgers, Jacobi Ellsbury 3-5 + HR for Boston and Elliot Johnson got the GWRBI for Tampa.(Lose 2-0..........Rays offense is feeble, but Hellickson did fine.)

PIRATES(Morton) +150 over Cardinals(Jackson)-------Morton's averaged 7inn in each of his last 4 starts and only allowed 3 ER total in those 4 games. Cardinals..........you could say they're due to win on a 3-8 run but.........it looks like they're checking out; they know they're not gonna catch the Brewers. Carlos Beltran was 2-4 w/ HR and I think Carlos Gonzalez got a couple hits for the Rockies. Carl Crawford, 5 RBI + HR. I'll take the underdog.(Lose 8-4.......Michael McKenry 2-3 but Morton gets rocked)

BALTIMORE ORIOLES(Reyes) +150 over Twins(Liriano)-------The JR has some support today with Juan Rivera's 3 RBI + HR........but maybe the JJ could do good also considering the SS(Scott Sizemore and Skip Schumaker going a combined 8 for 8) and the CC(Coco Crisp 4-4 + 2HR and Carl Crawford 5 RBI). Yes, Jo-Jo Reyes has not done well statistically, but Orioles seem to be rolling on the Twins winning 4-1, 8-1 and 6-1.(Win 6-1)

OAKLAND(Harden) +185 over Yankees(Hughes)--------3 of Hughes' last 4 starts have been successful, but Harden's not too bad and he was once a very good pitcher. The A's look like they came to New York to win so...........I'll take this big price.(Lose 22-9..........NYY get their revenge against De Los Santos who takes the L and BS, 3ER in .1inn. A's destroy Hughes but can't hold a 6-run lead. Whoever the stooge Bruce Billings is, Yankees made history off him as he gives up 7ER and 4BB in 1.1inn including the 3 Grand Slam of the game(all by the Yankees). Russell Martin 5-5 2HR, 6RBI.....Cano and Granderson each have 5 RBI individually. Rainy day; sun comes out and Yankees score 16 more runs to take the lead. Rich Harden allowing 10 hits in 4innings is the equivalent of.....(they should have left him in there).....Richard Branson(nah, he didnt pay me)'s house getting torched by lightning and burnt to a crisp)

HOUSTON ASTROS(Sosa) +190 over San Francisco Giants(Vogelsong)-----Astros called up some hitters...........and they're doing some of that. Astros have scored 5 runs or more in 9 of their last 16 games while Giants have only done that in 6 of their last 15. Let's go SS! (Win 3-1)
