Put these in overnight.............

Baltimore +145
-I am aware that Seattle is hot right now, winners of 9 of 10, but the O's are 8-2 in their last 10 head-to-head with the Mariners, including a 3-0 sweep at Seattle earlier in the year. Seattle starts RHP George Kirby who has a 4.98 ERA on the road this year and 4-5 with an ERA of 4.12 at night. In addition, he has 0-3 career vs the Orioles including a 5-1 loss back in June. The Mariners just finished a 10-game home stand and now venture out on the road where they are a very pedestrian 29-28 this season and have lost 4 of 5. Meanwhile, the O's start RHP Dean Kremer who have an excellent 5-2 record at home with an ERA of 2.69. He won his only decision last year vs Seattle, giving up 0 ER on just 2 hits and 8 k's in 6 IP. Play Baltimore as a live home dog.

Philadelphia -145
-The Phillies look to make it 2-straight over the Reds tonight in Game 2 of their series. They have won 4 straight and are a nice 8-2 their last 10 games. Tonight, they start LHP Ranger Suarez who has a very good ERA of 2.94 on the season and is actually better on the road going 5-2 with an ERA of 1.48. In addition, he has been very good in night games, going 5-2 with a 1.79 ERA Furthermore, Saurez is 3-0 vs the Reds in 3 career starts and in his two starts this year, he has given up 1 run on just 7 hits in 12 IP with 11 K's The Reds have not performed well against left-handed starters this year, going just 12-20 and averaging just 3.9 runs/game. The Reds are just 2-4 their last 6 games and aren't hitting averaging just 4 runs in those 4 losses. Cincy is starting RHP Brady Singer who is a very average 9-9 on the year with an ERA of 4.53. He has an abysmal record at night going 5-7 with a bloated ERA of 6.07! Finally, in his only start vs the Phills, he gave up 5 ER's on 11 hits in 5 IP in an 11-2 loss AND in his last start, he gave up 4 ER's on 6 hits, 4 BB's in just 3 2/3 IP. Lay the wood in this one and play Philadelphia.............

-The Jays come into this game 38-19 at home this season (a money making +1593) and 4.5 games ahead of the Red Sox in the AL East. They are 14-3 in their last 17 home games! Toronto starts RHP Jose Berrios who is a nice 8-4 with a 3.89 ERA. He is 3-1 at home this season and a very good 6-1 record at night with a 2.82 ERA!

Philadelphia/St Louis +150
-please read the above write-up for info on the Reds/Phillies game. The next play is basically a play AGAINST Colorado. The Rox come in to tonight's game with a 30-88 record on the year (58 games under .500) and a money burner of -$3462. They have lost 8 in a row and have been outscored 82-25 during their losing streak! Colorado starts LHP Kyle Freeland who is an awful 2-12 on the year with an ERA of 5.53. In addition, he is 1-7 on the road and 1-7 at night! In addition, he was shelled in his last outing, giving up 6 ER on 7 hits in just 4 2/3 IP in a 20-1 loss! Meanwhile, the Cards start LHP Mike Liberatore who is a decent 4-4 at home. In his last 3 starts, he has allowed only 4 ER's in 12 1/3 IP! The Cards should have no problem beating up on the Rox who are a lousy 14-46 on the road.
