I see Detroit around +110 right now. I know BAL swept the Rays but they play at around 3:00 PM Eastern and they just finished the series in Tampa this afternoon. Anybody else think this day game will be a nightmare and a game that BAL flat out takes off? Detroit has youngster Rick Porcello who is much better than his 4.96 ERA indicated last year IMO. This Arietta kid can't be much better if any than Porcello IMO. I think BAL mails it in and Detroit picks up a needed win after losing their series against the Yankees.
DETROIT (+110)
I also see a HUGE road trip for the Seattle Mariners. They finished up in Oakland today and have to get to Texas for tommorow nights game. This is a pretty good travel IMO, while Texas stays at home after sweeping the Red Sox. My only worry is the SP matchup. Bedard is solid but who knows how much he has right now after the injuries. Texas starts a true RP last year who hasn't started a game in his career from what I've saw. He did post a 1.30 ERA in 41.2 innings, 40 K's and 15 BB's isn't terrible either.
TEXAS (-155)
