CHICAGO W. Sox (Garland) +150 over CLEVELAND (Westbrook)
The Indians have stumbled badly in this last crucial week of
the season, losing 4 of their last 5 including a tough extra
inning loss to the Chisox last night. That dropped their record
against the AL Central champs to a dismal 5-12 (-$770) and
see no reason not to grab the generous price on the visitor.
Jon Garland has been a solid performer for Chicago in 2005
(+$390, 3.57 ERA) and the Tribe has dropped a bundle vs.
righthanders at Jacobs Field (-$1180). Jake Westbrook has
been far less reliable (-$315) and the Sox have cleaned up vs.
righties all year (+$2130). Grab the underdog price as the
Indians draw one step closer to playoff elimination.
