cleveland indians under 9 (+100)
millwood had an uncharacteristially shaky start last time out, but was aided by a lot of run support in tampa. expecting to see a(nother) dominant millwood performance this afternoon after a rare semi-clunker for him. for the season, tribe has struggled to score runs for him when hes been on the mound. that might be the case here today, because downs is halfway decent and the indians hit almost 20 points lower against lefties. at the top of the lineup, sizemore hits over 40 points worse against lefties and coco crisp in the #2 hole is .328 vs. right handed pitching, but just .234 against left handed guys. heart of the indians order (peralta, hafner, and a resurgent martinez) might not have a whole lot of at bats with RISP. bottom line -- millwood should have a solid outing, but im worried about the indians scoring to help him out. tribe might win, but see this one in the 4-3 range. big play for me in this one.
