I like to let teams go once through their rotations before I begin wagering on the season.
Here we go! All for 1 unit.
Rangers +105 - I really like Millwood to have a good bounceback year. I think he's capable of getting back to 15 wins. I'd be very surprised if Edwin Jackson tossed two good games, and I expect Texas to avoid the sweep here.
Blue Jays +125 - I've been impressed with the development of some of the younger guys in the lineup. Purcey is an up and comer himself. I see Cleveland's struggles continuing with their bats and an overworked bullpen. Anthony Reyes is a bum, he don't got the K-rates to keep that hot luck streak he had going late last summer.
Yankees/Royals Over 7.5 -110 - I like Gil Meche but this aint quite the White Sox lineup he buzzed through the other day. I can see him getting touched up a little here. Joba faces a tough task here trying to keep a decent Royals lineup down after the Yanks have just giving up 1 run in each of the first two games in this series. Royals are going to get some runs here. I see no problem with either team getting atleast 4 runs here in this spot.
Mariners -105 - Bedard is starting to regain his old form IMO. Oakland has a lineup that struggles against lefties. I'm not impressed with the composure of young rookie Trevor Cahill. He has serious control problems with that sinkerball, walking 5 in 5 IP vs the Angles last week, he was fortunante the Angels didn't do more damage than they did against him.
