I'm on a few tonight - Yankees, Tigers (chase), Phillies (chase) and DBacks
Really liking these two:
Detroit: Tigers game is heavy chalk, but Seattle's lineup looks absolutely terrible. Verlander shouldn't have a problem with them.
Arizona: Collimenter is damn good. Looks like DBacks have faired well at the plate against Karstens.
I'm looking at the Rangers game right now

Final Atlanta 3 Florida 2. A Braves ML and under winner. A few nervous moments as both teams combined for 4 runs in the 7th and left numerous men stranded in the 8th. Bullpen Ace Johnny Vinters smoked the Florida side in the 9th to seal the deal and get the under in the barn. Kinda glad that one is over. Glad we made it.
Atlanta Houston Game 1:Atlanta goes into tonight's game against Houston after a 3 game sweep of the Marlins. This brings their record to 35-28 overall as now they have won 3 in a row in the current streak and are 6-4 Last 10. Houston is 24-39 losing 1 and 5-5 Last 10 and are in the cellar of the Central Divison. Hudson will start for Atlanta 4-5 4.14 ERA overall but more importantly is 3-0 1.19 ERA in 5 career starts against Houston. Hudson has not pitched in Minute Maid Park since June of 2006 and has not chalked a win since early May of this year. Rodriquez 0-3 5.28 ERA will go for Houston and has not faced the Braves in his career. The Braves have won 8 out of 9 overall against Houston and have team batting average of .271 with 11 homers in that time frame. Houston has the worst record in baseball and have dropped 5 out 6 at home and overall. The only bright spot for Houston has been Hunter Pence batting .376 and on a 20 game hitting streak. Houston also struggles getting men aboard with the league's worse walk average at only 2.6 per game. Atlanta's Martin Prado is questionable for tonight's mathcup but he leads the team in homers with 8 and RBI's with 33. Hudson's past success against Houston with Atlanta's dominance of Houston overall combine to make the RL - 1 1/2 +110 reduced a possiblity. The Atlanta pitching staff is more than capable of throwing a shut out or a 1 run game especially as Houston struggles to find base runners. Atlanta should create enough scoring opportunites to post a 4-0 5-1 type game. If Prado plays, his timing and mechanics may be off slightly, but he may able to supply a key hit as the game progresses. 4 out of 5 last Atlanta games have gone under. However, the average score in the Houston Atlanta matchup over the past 100 games is 9. We will still look for Atlanta pitching to control the game. The recent game under trend should continue and because of Hudson's stellar record against Houston we are still seeking shut out or 1 run game and play Houston Under 3 Total Team runs +105. Look for an Atlanta RL win, an under 8 1/2 (buying one run) and Houston Under 3 Team Total if Braves pin point pitching continues tonight breaking Pence's hitting streak in Houston. BOL everybody.

West Coast Late Game Reds Giants: San Fransico comes in tonights game with a 35-28 overall record losing 1 and 6-4 Last 10. Cinncy brings a 33-31 overall record winning 1 and 6-4 Last 10. San Fransico still posts a 17-11 home record while Cinncy has a 13-16 road record. Vogelsong is 4-1 1.83 ERA overall, but a 2-1 .064 ERA home reocrd in 4 starts. Moreover, he has allowed only 1 run in 3 straight home games. Wood is 4-4 5.72 and coming off one of the worst outings of his career where he suffered 8 runs. He also lost his only career start in San Fransico. If Wood still has not psychologically shaken off his miserable last outing, the Giants may be able to jump on him early even though their run production has been low as of late. If the Giants can manage a few runs in the early frames and Vogelsong turning in another solid home performance cooling off some hot Cinny bats in the process, we will look to the San Fransico ML as a possibility. San Fransico's run production has to increase at some point in a tight Division Race in order for them to remain competitive. We will take a chance they at least take a step in that direction tonight against a pitcher with a rocky last outing and look to the Giant O 3 1/2 +100 Team Total. The Reds are looking for their third straight win in AT&T Park and their 4 in 5 games overall. However, the underlying pitching matchups combined with a prime opportunity for the Giants to finally get some semblance of offense underway can disappoint the Reds in their attempt for a third stright win in San Fransico as the Giants quite possilbly can come away with a ML win and hopefully bring at least 4 runs or better across the plate in the process. BOL everybody.
