Today?s best MLB bets
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tampa Bay Rays at Seatte Mariners (+120, 8.5)

The key to Seattle?s success the rest of the way is pitching. And few teams throw the ball as well at home as the Mariners.

Seattle has the ninth-best home ERA in baseball (3.77). Safeco Field has been a house of horrors for opposing lineups this season. The Mariners have won three straight at home and will start young hurler Ryan Rowland-Smith on Sunday, a player Tampa Bay has yet to face this year.

The Rays also hit six points lower on the road (.260) than at home, and are just 24-31 away from Tropicana Field this year. Overall, the Rays have dropped five of their past eight on the road.

Seattle has a long way to go to get back in the playoff race, but should take advantage of an opportunity to damage Tampa Bay?s postseason hopes.

Pick: Mariners


Chicago Cubs at Colorado Rockies (+106, 9.5)

One of baseball?s best kept secrets is that the Cubs are one of the worst road hitting teams in the majors.

Chicago is batting a pathetic .237 away from Wrigley Field this year. The team is in the bottom third in the league in road doubles (92) and is in the middle of the pack in away home runs (57). The lone reason the team doesn?t struggle more on the road than its 24-31 record would indicate, is its pitching.

The Cubs have the third-best road ERA (3.84) in the majors. But don?t tell that to the Rockies, who have been raking at home ever since Coors Field was first built in Denver a mile above sea level. Colorado is doing it the same way it has always done it, with power. The Rockies have smacked 67 home runs and 110 doubles in their own back yard.

Pick: Rockies

Sunday night baseball: Red Sox at Yankees

Boston Red Sox at New York Yankees (-107, 9.5)

Boston takes on New York at Yankees Stadium under the Sunday night ESPN lights tonight. That just sounds right.

A pair of southpaws, each looking to crack the 10-win plateau, do battle Sunday when the Red Sox send Jon Lester (9-7 3.79 ERA) up against Andy Pettitte (9-6 4.35 ERA) and the Pinstripes.

Back from the dead

Alex Rodriguez ended his homerless streak at 71 at-bats, his longest power drought as a Yankee, when he launched a game-winning two-run shot in Friday?s 2-0 victory over the Red Sox.

Rodriguez is on pace for his worst statistical season yet, but maybe last night?s clutch dinger will spark his performance for the remainder of the year.

V-Mart

The Red Sox wanted catcher Victor Martinez even though he was hitting below .200 in July.

The Boston brass thought they needed an offensive boost. The Sox offered the Indians a good chunk of promising pitchers and as a result were able to add the All-Star to their roster at the trading deadline.

Martinez developed as a youngster in the Cleveland organization, starting out as a shortstop before being switched to a catcher. He also carries a first-basemen?s glove in his apparel bag.

"Now they have another bat, instead of just three guys carrying the lineup," said one well-respected scout.

Martinez should give the Sox the same type of offensive boost they got from Jason Bay last season.

Bay watch

Speaking of Bay, the left fielder has had lingering effects from a hamstring cramp.

He missed the final game of the Baltimore series Sunday, August 2 and the opener of the Tampa Bay matchup Tuesday, August 4. The All-Star was back in the lineup August 5 before re-injuring the hamstring. He didn't play in either of the first two games in this series. His bat is critical in Boston?s quest for the pennant.

Other key BoSox performers injured or sidelined include OF Rocco Baldelli, SS Jed Lowrie and RHP?s Daisuke Matsuzaka and Tim Wakefield.

Penny for your thoughts

Boston has to get more from its starting pitchers if the club has any shot at grabbing a postseason berth.

The last sweep through the rotation saw Brad Penny, John Smoltz, and Clay Buchholz combine for 13 1-3 innings, 24 hits, 20 runs (all earned), 10 walks and 11 strikeouts. The trio also surrendered seven home runs in the process.

Penny, now 7-6, has not lasted seven innings in any of his 21 starts this season, which is the most in the majors. It's also the longest single-season streak by a Red Sox pitcher since 1954.

The Red Sox designated Smoltz for assignment on Friday. The club has 10 days to reassign him to a Minor League affiliate, trade him, or release him.

Go figure

Pettitte picked up his first win since July 1 when he bested Roy Halladay and the Blue Jays, 5-3, in Toronto Tuesday night.

Despite a stellar 40:6 strikeout to walk ratio, Pettitte owns a 5.31 ERA against left-handed hitters this season. On the flip side the big lefty sports a 3.91 ERA against right-handed bats.

He is 1-3 with a 6.36 ERA in his last four team starts versus Boston, but 9-6 at home in his career against the Red Sox.

Lester has defused the Bronx Bombers since being shelled in his MLB debut start against the Pinstripes, going 4-1 with a 2.23 ERA.

Lester has delivered the goods in nine of his last 12 team starts for Boston.

The Yankees play great at home on Sunday (16-2 this season). Conversely, the Red Sox are just 2-7 away on Sundays.
