DETROIT (Robertson) -120 over BALTIMORE (Cabrera)
The Orioles have fallen way off the pace in the AL
East and with a 1-9 record against lefthanders
(-$930 with only 3.3 runs per game), it won't be
easy to recover against a Detroit rotation loaded
with southpaws. We've been impressed all year
by Kenny Rogers and Mike Maroth. But don't lose
sight of Nate Robertson, who has put together a
string of solid performances (+$195, 3.25 ERA
overall) and is nicely poised to get the Tigers off
on the right foot in this series. They are 9-5 (+$460)
on the road vs. righthanders and 13-3 in night
games so far (+$1035). We'll lay the short road
price vs. Cabrera (-$235) and the rest of the fading
Orioles.
