White Sox (Wright) +105 1 unit


Playing against the sweep today as the Sox are now 3.5 behind the Twins and falling and the Indians have moved a game from second place in the Central. The Indians are feeling pretty good about themselves after yesterday?s win. "I see the confidence rising with every Jim Thome home run," said Indians reliever Paul Shuey "I finally feel like we've got potential. Whenever you hit the ball like we have the past few games, it gives you confidence. "It's the way I remember it being around here." Someone might want to remind him that they got just 6 hits yesterday. While Finley has kept his opposition?s scoring down in his last 5, the White Sox bats are different from the likes of the Tiger, Royals and Baltimore (the teams he?s faced in his last 5). The Sox have hit Finley well over his career in Cleveland and they should do the same today.

Danny Wright comes in following his lackluster performance in the opening game against the Yankees and he will feel the pressure again today. Wright is as sharp as any pitcher on the staff (except Buerhle) and he has performed well against the better teams of the AL. Expect a good start out of him and better defensive effort today.

Lastly, Does a thirty- or forty-something individual realize how stupid they look wearing a cap with Chief Wahoo on they front? They look like an overgrown Little Leaguer. Cleveland Sucks. Go Sox.

sox offense clearly missing Lofton who often sets the table for the others.

Finley off his best start as Indian. I like the under here, despite the fact that hitters ump Cuzzi is behind the dish.

Good luck today, playing the pale hose also.

If I didn't play the White Sox, I'd be up another 25 units or so this year.

Nice read and good luck!

Make that 27 units, KC. Always like to see when you're on my side. Kinda knew the play was doomed when Madjack had the Tribe. I'm about 0-5 when we go head to head.

Nice call on the under, Spang. Didn't think that Finley would pitch that well. He got hit pretty hard, but not when it counted.

That was a tough loss for you. I was at the game yesterday and if Thomas hits that ball in the 9th just a couple of feet in either direction Sox probably win it.

Tribe's bullpen tried to make you a winner with their late meltdown. Yep, its a game of inches to be sure.
