**10** DIVISIONAL TOTAL OF THE YEAR *

10* Over Minnesota Twins/Detroit Tigers

[Mr. IWS]

Re: 8-7-09

4 Unit Play. Take Under 9.5 between the Minnesota Twins @ Detroit Tigers (Friday @ 7pm est). Anthony Swarzak comes off his worst outing of the season and his career as he gave up four runs in a span on three innings to the Angels. He looks to bounce-back in an effort today on the road against the Tigers. The start was a bit expected as he had beat the Angels in the game before so it was a home and home that he was facing and that typically favors the team or the pitcher who did worse the first time out. Gallaraga comes off one of his worst starts of his career as well as he had given up 8 runs in less than 6 innings in his last start against Cleveland. The Tigers went on to lose the contest 1-11. Gallaraga did not have a good road trip to speak and has an ERA that is a full 1 point lower at home as compared to on the road. Given that Swarzak and Gallaraga are both on the bounce-back here, I look for this game to likely dip under this evening. The Under is 4-1 in Swarzak's last five starts as an Underdog and the Under is 5-1 in Gallaraga's last six starts Overall.




4 Unit Play. Take the New York Yankees -117 over the Boston Redsox (Friday @ 7pm est). We just can't be afraid. I tell that to myself more than I tell that for you. The Yankees have a pitcher who was shelled against Boston his last time out in Burnett. Plus, Burnett comes off an ugly start where he gave up 7 runs in less than 5 innings in a 4-14 loss to the Whitesox on the road. This guy has a lot of pride and prior to that had put together 8 straight consecutive quality starts. He comes off his worst start against the Redsox and his first career loss to the Redsox. Whereas Beckett comes off a shutout of the Orioles over seven innings and a defeat of the Yankees in his last go around, I like Burnett here on the bounce-back both from his last start and losing to the Redsox his last time out as well. The Yankees are 5-1 as a home favorite of late and the Redsox are 0-5 as Underdogs of late.
Good luck,
IC

GoodFella | MLB Money Line Fri, 08/07/09 - 7:35 PM ';
double-dime bet ml902 PHI (-137) Bodog vs 901 FLA
Analysis:

-Blanton must start for Philly or no action-



-Florida coming off getting swept at Washington & their bullpen was used extensively in that series, nice advantage for Philly tonight-



-Lead-off man and team sparkplug, Jimmy Rollins is seeing the ball better than he has all season: He's batting .345 with six home runs, nine doubles, 21 RBIs and 21 runs in the last 20 games in Philadelphia, and I look for him to continue his hot hitting tonight-



-Joe Blanton allowed just two runs and seven hits in seven innings of a 2-0 loss, his first defeat since June 24 at Tampa Bay. He is still 3-1 with a 1.47 ERA in his last five starts and 5-2 with a 2.33 ERA in his last 12-



-Blanton has been his best at hitter friendly Citizen Park this season: He is 4-0 with a 1.84 ERA in seven home starts since yielding six runs in a loss to Atlanta on May 9. Hosting the Marlins on May 26, Blanton allowed five hits while striking out a career-high 11 in seven scoreless innings of a 5-3 win & he is 3-0 with a 3.18 ERA in 3 career starts vs Florida, including a dominating start back on May 26th: 7 IP, 5 hits, 0 runs, 2 BB, 11 K's-



-Nolasco has been outsta dning recently, but he does not do his best pitching at night & in his last outing vs Philly, he gave up four runs and seven hits in six innings of a 6-5, 12-inning home win over Philadelphia on July 17-



-Here are some key Phillies vs Nolasco career wise: Rollins (6-22, 3 2B's, 2 HR's) Victarino (3-19, 2 2B's) Utley (7-20, 2B, HR) Howard (4-16, 3 HR's) Ibanez (2-3) Werth (2-7) Dobbs (2-6)-



-Here are some key Marlins vs Blanton career wise: Benifacio (2-11, 2 2B's) N. Johnson (5-10, 2B) Hanley (2-4) Cantu (4-16,2B, HR) Hermida (0-6) Uggla (1-6) Ross (2-5, 2B) Baker (1-6)-

Re: 8-7-09

JACK JONES

15* Orioles/Blue Jays OVER 9
This game could get ugly fast with a couple of volatile pitchers on the mound. It all starts with Jason Berken, who has been a mess for the Baltimore Orioles. Berken is 1-9 with a 6.93 ERA on the year, but has a 9.53 ERA and 1.85 WHIP in 5 road starts and a 8.78 ERA and 1.95 WHIP over his last three starts. Blue Jays starter, Ricky Romero has been better than Berken, but he has a 4.91 ERA and 1.69 WHIP over his last 3 starts. The Orioles average 4.6 runs per game, while Toronto is posting 4.9 runs per game. With these two starters you can expect at least one of these teams to go over their season average.
