Greg Shaker | MLB Total - Tuesday, Jun 18 2013 7:05PM 915 BAL / 916 DET OVER 8 Bookmaker.com triple-dime bet
Analysis: There is a reason why the Detroit Tigers are such a Big Favorite in this game and it is not just because Verlander is on the Hill. The Starter for the O's today is just not that good and in fact most likely will go back to AAA Following this game as a spot starter. Also, the Tigers punish left handed pitchers to the tune of nearly 6 Runs Per 9 Innings here at this Park. But these Orioles can hit the ball and have been one of the Better OVER teams this year because of that, and especially when they are on the road. It's going to be a pretty strong weather pattern tonight for the Hitters here at Comerico and the 8 is a Bargain Numbe Œr for sure. I have 9.6 for this one and play for 3%..
Andre Gomes | MLB Total 910 ARI / 909 Mia Over 8.5 Bookmaker.com
Starting Pitchers: N. Eovaldi vs R. Delgado)
Miami is starting Nate Eovaldi tonight, on his season debut after missing the first two and a half months of the season due to a shoulder injury. Eovaldi did just 20 innings of work on the minors after getting injured on Spring Training and his stats weren't very impressive: 4.35 ERA and 15/6 K/BB. He is terrible against LH batters and the numbers don't lie: .305 BA, .361 wOBA, 4.41 FIP and 4.89 xFIP on his career against them. Arizona will use four LH batters on his lineup tonight, so Eovaldi should clearly struggle in here:
1. Gerardo Parra (L) RF
2. Willie Bloomquist (R) 2B
3. Paul Goldschmidt (R) 1B
4. Miguel Montero (L) C
5. Martin Prado (R) 3B
6. Jason Kubel (L) LF
7. A.J. Pollock (R) CF
8. Didi Gregorius (L) SS
9. Randall Delgado (R) P
On the other side, Arizona will start Randall Delgado, who got called up to start tonight's game. He owns a 5.91 ERA in 13 starts with Triple-A Reno this season and even though he has been pitching better on the minors lately, I'm not impressed by him. He possesses just two kind of pitches (fastball + change up) and Miami's offense has been quite decent lately, with the return of Logan Morrison and Giancarlo Stanton to the lineup. Of course the Marlins had some problems on batting against Patrick Corbin yesterday, but now against a much easier opponent, I expect the Marlins to show the nice hitting they showed last weekend on their series against the Cardinals tonight.
I believe that at least one of these two pitchers will heavily struggle tonight, while the other one won't surely have a perfect outing in here. This should turn this game into a high scoring contest and therefore, I'll be taking the Over in here.

20-UNIT "NBA PLAY OF THE SEASON" HEAT -7 vs spurs (6pm)

4-unit Play Take #927 Los Angeles Dodgers (-105) over New York Yankees (7:05pm ET) The Los Angeles Dodgers head to the Bronx to take on the New York Yankees in the first of a two- game series tonight. It's been a nightmarish season for Dodger fans, but one of the few bright spots has been the performance of today's starter Hyun-Jin Ryu. The 26-year old Japanese import has excelled in the major leagues with a deceptive delivery and very good control. He's 6-2 with a 2.85 ERA and 1.18 WHIP in 13 starts this season. Part of his success has been due to the fact that his opponents have never seen him and that deception that he has works well for him the first couple of times through the order. That shouldn't change tonight as this will be the first time the Yanks will see him up close. New York is also hurting badly with Mark Teixeira and Kevin Youkilis going down again in the last week. That's in addition to Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Francisco Cervelli and Curtis Granderson. What's left of the Yankees lineup has done well to keep things together, but you can see things starting to fall apart. The Yankees have lost five of six and they have a struggling Phil Hughes on the mound tonight. Hughes is 3-5 with a 4.89 ERA and he has been horrible in his career in Yankee Stadium. All signs point to a Dodgers win today, so we'll take them at a small price today.
Please note that the following play is for Game #1 of the doubleheader
3-unit Play Take #931 Tampa Bay Rays (+110) over Boston Red Sox (1:05pm ET) Game 1 of a doubleheader gets underway in Fenway Park as the Red Sox host the Rays. The pitching matchup is a rematch of a game last week in Tampa as Alfredo Aceves goes up against Chris Archer. Boston won that game 2-1, but the game could have easily gone either way as both starters were unimpressive. Aceves walked more batters than he struck out (4 versus 3) and couldn't find the strike zone at times. Archer threw 103 pitches in just four innings of work as he struggled with his control as well. As far as sheer talent, Archer has a big edge over Aceves. I also think Archer is a bit more ready for the big leagues than Aceves is at this point. The Rays usually don't rush guys up to the majors unless they're confident they can produce, so we'll trust their judgment with Archer based on their track record. Offensively speaking, these teams are very evenly matched. Boston is 1st in runs scored and Tampa Bay is 4th. After taking into account park factors, they grade out almost identical. I also think the bullpens are a draw, so this game should come down to which starting pitcher performs better. As we discussed, Archer should outshine Aceves, so we're on the Rays at a nice underdog price.
