The Red Sox are 25-10 at home this season and 90-39 in their last 129 home games. They march Wakefield out to the hill tonight and that figures to a be a recipe for success when you consider that the Red Sox are 42-16 in his last 58 home starts and a perfect 7-0 in his home starts this season. In addition, the cross country trip to Bean Town has been brutal for the M's, who are just 5-17 in the last 22 meetings in Boston. While the M's put their ace on the hill tonight, I don't think they'll be able to provide enough run support to walk away with a win when you consider they are scoring just 3.8 runs per game against righty starters this season. Bet the Sox.

Seattle at Boston UNDER 8.5
Summary: Felix Hernandez has allowed two or fewer earned runs in each of his last seven starts, going 4-0 with a 0.85 ERA. Hernandez is 3-1 with a 3.05 ERA in six starts against the Red Sox, and he's been undaunted by the challenge of pitching at Fenway Park, tossing 15 shutout innings in winning his two starts there. Felix also owns a 1.72 ERA in 9 road starts this season.
Tim Wakefield had a 1.80 ERA in two starts against Seattle last season. The 42-year-old also went 4-0 with a 3.45 ERA in five June starts. And let's not forget about the Boston bullpen. Red Sox relievers are tied for the major league lead with a 3.18 ERA.
The Under is 13-3-3 in Boston's last 19 home games, and 6-1 in Boston's last 7 games with the total set at 7 to 8.5. The Under is 11-1 in the Mariners' last 12 road games with the total set at 7 to 8.5, and 13-3 in Hernandez's last 16 starts vs. AL East foes. The Under is also 5-1-1 in the last 7 meetings.
I'd say the UNDER is worth a shot here for a half-unit.

Cannot go with the home team here, Cleveland is a train wreck right now. Oakland just took 2 out of 3 from Detroit (I lost one of those games by the way Wednesday). Impressed with Oaklands ability to play good teams tough and that inspires confidence on the road against weak sisters. Should pool that into a win tonight, Clevelands bats are silent and provide little run support for their starters. Clevelands Huff is a southpaw and the A's hit lefties well and Huff has a season ERA over 6. I do not think Celveland can trade enough runs on offense to win this, better team getting almost 20 cents on the moneyline. I continue to fade Clevealnd till they start getting some offense and they are off a pouding at the hands of the White Sox where they got swept big time.

Atlanta Braves at Washington Nationals
A season-high four-game winning streak and a sweep of the defendingWorld Champions has put the Atlanta Braves back in the thick of theNL East race. A visit to Washington could help them climb even higher. Some challenges could lie ahead for the Braves on their 10-gameroad trip, but they'll first open a three-game set on Friday nightagainst the lowly Nationals. The Braves have struggled with consistency - especially offensively- this season, but picked a good time to find a bit of a groove,totaling 21 runs and 37 hits in a three-game sweep of Philadelphiaearlier this week. They're still in fourth place in the East, but only two games inback of the struggling Phillies, who are in a virtual tie withFlorida. Atlanta (38-40) is one game behind the third-place NewYork Mets. "(We've got) a long way to go, but we're happy with our position,"Braves manager Bobby Cox said. The winning streak has come without injured leadoff hitter NateMcLouth (hamstring), but Martin Prado has helped pick up the slack.He went 7 for 12 with three doubles, a home run and six RBIsagainst the Phillies. Casey Kotchman and Garret Anderson each hit two-run home runs, andMatt Diaz notched his second straight three-hit game in Thursday's5-2 win to cap their first home sweep of the Phillies in more thanfour years. The Braves last won five in a row from May 18-22, 2008. With anNL-worst 5.21 team ERA, Washington could help Atlanta keep rolling. Cox's club will face the Chicago Cubs and Colorado later in thetrip, but the Nationals (22-54) have the worst record in the majorleagues. They return home after a 1-5 road trip, which closed withthree straight losses to Florida including 5-3 on Wednesday asWashington stranded 13 runners. "We had plenty of chances," manager Manny Acta said. "I think,right now, our situational hitting flat out stinks." Rookie Ross Detwiler (0-4, 5.24 ERA) is well aware of that. He hasreceived one run of support in five of his eight starts, includinglast Friday at Baltimore as he allowed five runs in five-plusinnings of an 11-1 defeat. The Nationals are 1-7 when he pitches. His mound opponent will be Kenshin Kawakami (4-6, 4.25). Theright-hander has not pitched since June 24, when he was forced toleave after three perfect innings when he was hit in the base ofthe neck by a line drive from the bat of New York Yankees pitcherJoba Chamberlain. "I'm fine," Kawakami told the Braves' official Web site through atranslator. "I'm alive. At first, I was worried that it might havehit a bone. I'm glad it didn't." The 34-year-old rookie has allowed three or fewer earned runs ineach of his last 10 starts. He's 3-3 with a 3.18 ERA over that span. Both of his starts against Washington came before that stretch. Hebeat the Nationals in his major league debut on April 11, but lostto them 10 days later after allowing four runs - two earned - overfive-plus innings at Nationals Park. Atlanta swept the Nationals at home from April 10-12, but the teammanaged six total runs while losing two of three in the nation'scapital April 20-22.

One could almost say that the Royals are being steamed as this betting line has moved steadily upward since the Get Go and this play can be had as high as +148 at some books as I peck out these thoughts. And why is that? Because Greinke "The Wonder Boy" is pitching. His games have seen this same kind of result over his last 8 to 10 pitched and perhaps with good reason, as he has been solid as can be. However, he has not been as sharp lately and the WhiteSox thrower is having his best stint of the year. Danks as allowed just 6 runs over his last 4 starts. He is in a VERY GOOD SITUATION tonight facing the Royals who have been lefty handicapped and are 2-9 verses them this year. KC is beginning to figure out that they are not a good team. They have won just once here at Kaufman the last 9 times they have played here. They have lost 11 of 15 regardless of where they have played. We all know how hot the Chicago Squad is, so I will not bore you with that and during this streak I have bet them more than once. I think that I will do it again! Chicago is hitting the ball. They are playing great defense. They are getting very good starting and reliever pitching. They are winning games. And....they are HUGE DOGS tonight. What up with that?

The emergence of Max Scherzer as a frontline starter has been one of the lone positives for the Diamondbacks this season. Arizona had a disastrous season but Scherzer has won three of his last four starts and Arizona owns a winning record behind Scherzer, including wins in seven of the last ten games. Scherzer has allowed just seven earned runs in his last five starts and he owns an over 2.3:1 strikeout to walk ratio. Jorge De La Rosa owns a 7.97 ERA at home and Colorado 1-6 in his home starts. As poorly as Arizona has produced on offense the Diamondbacks actually own a stronger team batting average over the last ten games despite a 2-8 record. Arizona and Colorado have also featured very similar bullpen numbers on the season. The Rockies have been held to four runs or fewer in seven of the last eight games.

Friday night's FREE winner comes from Boston as I love the Mariners on the road in this one against the Red Sox.
The Mariners are on the last leg of a tough three-city trip that has had them in Los Angeles against the Dodgers and in New York against the Yankees. They are 3-3 on the trip and tonight we love their ace Felix Hernandez (8-3, 2.54 ERA) against the Red Sox.
The young hurler has allowed two runs or less in each of his last seven starts, going 4-0 in that stretch with a 0.85 ERA. Saturday in Los Angeles he gave up just one unearned run on four hits in eight innings of a 5-1 win, striking out nine in the process. And it's not like he's unfamiliar with the Red Sox, he's got a 3-1 career mark against Boston with a 3.05 ERA in six starts and he's tossed 15 shutout innings at Fenway in winning his last two starts in Beantown.
Seattle took two of three from Boston in mid-May in the Pacific Northwest but they didn't get a look at today's starter, veteran knuckleballer Tim Wakefield (10-3, 4.18). The guy gets wins thanks to his offense. When he gets knocked around, they usually get to him hard.
The Mariners are on runs of 9-4 on Fridays and 12-4 when Hernandez is a road 'dog. He's won 15 of the last 22 series openers he's pitched and he's 5-2 against the A.L. East.
I'm playing the Mariners in this one. I love the plus-money. I love the way Hernandez pitches and I'm cashing in with the young hurler in this one.
