Twins at Indians

Ubaldo Jimenez (9-7, 4.00 ERA) takes the ball trying to build on a 7-1 win over Oakland on Saturday. The right-hander allowed his only hit in the sixth inning and struck out eight before leaving with two outs in the frame. Samuel Deduno (7-7, 3.82). The right-hander for the twins, who has been dealing with tendinitis in his pitching arm, is 0-3 with a 7.02 ERA in his last three starts

Tigers at Mets

Matsuzaka starter for the Mets, signed a one-year deal Thursday following his release from Cleveland two days earlier, went 5-8 with a 3.92 ERA over 19 starts with the Indians' Triple-A team in Columbus. Now he goes up against the high powered tigs offense coming off a loss? I just don't see the Mets being able to keep up in this one

Brewers at Reds

Last sunday Bailey, however, yielded a run and three hits in eight innings of a 9-1 victory against the brewers. The right-hander struck out eight and walked one. The reds are 25-8 in the last 33 meetings there, going 5-1 this season.

Braves at Cardinals

Braves are depleted after losing Hayward...Wainwright had his best start last weekend...granted it was against the Cubs....The cards are fighting for a playoff spot i see them pull this one off at home in front of a good crowd at Busch.

Angels at Mariners

King Felix against an Angels lineup that was just made look silly by the Indians at Lastros. Seattle (59-67) has won four of six, scoring 12 runs in the past two games. I see the hot hitting the continue and the Angels losing streak to continue as well

Brewers at Reds
Although Gallardo has not looked good this year, however has been good against the Reds owning 2-1 record and a 1.65 era in 3 starts.
As for Bailey this year against the Brew Crew 1-2 record 4.79 era in 3 starts, granted his most recent just 5 days ago this very same Brewers he went 8 with 3 hits in a 9-1 victory

End of the day this maybe a toss up and the odds doesn't grant you much incentive for picking the Reds

My whole bet is basically based on the brewers playing for nothing.....the reds are in a playoff race....they don't take 2/3 from the brew crew I would be shocked
