Florida Marlins +102
Florida got a big win last night against New York and are looking to make a season-ending push against the Philles and Braves, who are struggling mightily right now. The Marlins will face Atlanta in the next series and a win tonight would carry over more than enough momentum for them to gain some ground. Take the Marlins.
St. Louis Rams +8
This spread is too high for a preseason game even if you are playing the Rams. St. Louis is getting better on defense (and let's not forget who the defensive coordinator was that spoiled the Patriots perfect season in the Super Bowl a few years ago). Steve Spagnuolo is now the head coach of the Rams and he will always be remembered for leading the Giants defense that stopped the unbeatable Patriots that year. New England has been running the ball a lot this preseason which has chewed up the clock, resulting in less drives to actually score. This fact alone is highly favorable when dealing with such a high spread. Look for the Rams to get Bradford in a rhythm by throwing short passes and utilizing the running game. This should be a pretty boring game but the Rams will cover. Take St. Louis.
Green Bay Packers -4
Aaron Rogers has been, by far, the best player in the preseason to date. Green Bay looks great on offense and I truly think this team will have a great shot at getting to the Super Bowl this year. Peyton Manning is the best QB in the league, but their offensive line is a bit banged up and they really have no depth beyond an excellent starting core. The Packers are a better team at this point of the preseason. When the backups come in, huge advantage to the Packers. Take Green Bay.

Game : Oakland Athletics at Cleveland Indians (MLB) 07:05pm EST
Prediction : Oakland Athletics ML / Vin Mazzaro must start.
Analysis : The Indians continue their rough season as they are now 26 games under .500 for the year including nine games under .500 at home. Cleveland is finding it very hard to score runs right now and I don’t see that changing Thursday. The Indians, losers of five straight games, have scored more than one run only once over this span and have plated a total of just four runs over this five-game stretch. Going back further, Cleveland is 3-13 over its last 16 games, scoring three runs or fewer 10 times. Oakland had a successful homestand prior to this roadtrip and it is continuing right where it left off. The pitching has been outstanding and coupled with the Indians inability to score, it sets up another great spot at a reasonable price. The A’s have allowed three runs or fewer in 15 of their last 21 games and they have allowed no more than five runs in any game over that span. This has improved the team ERA to 3.48 which is the best in the American League. To no surprise, Oakland has the starting pitching advantage again Thursday. The A’s go with Vin Mazzaro and he has been spot on for a while now. He has tossed four straight quality outings as well as quality performances in 10 of his last 11 trips to the hill. His ERA over this 11-game stretch is an outstanding 2.76. On the road this season he has a 3.88 ERA which is only that high because of one bad game and six of those eight road starts have been quality versions. He allowed one run in 7.1 innings in Cleveland in his lone start against the Indians this year. He is opposed by Justin Masterson who is having a very tough time this season. He has a 5.33 ERA on the year and of his 25 starts, only nine have been quality outings. To no surprise, Cleveland is just 8-17 in those games. He has pitched much better at home but he still is not getting the wins despite decent run support. That run support will diminish here and in two career starts against the A’s, he is 0-2 with a 13.50 ERA and 2.75 WHIP. Masterson is 3-10 in 17 nighttime starts on the season. Cleveland is 1-11 in Masterson’s 12 starts in the second half of the season over the last two years against American League teams with a batting average of .265 or worse while also going 4-16 in his 20 starts with a moneyline between +125 and -125.
