    Ok guys what am I missing here???

    Detroit with Rogers starting is -102 against Cleveland???

    Rogers is 11-3 with a 3.97 ERA...very solid. Byrd on the other hand is mediocre at 7-6 with a 4.78 ERA. Detroit's bullpen is superior too.

    This line looks to me to be way off...I would think more like Detroit -115 to -120. I am afraid to lay any money because I am so far off base here (pun not intended)

    So what am I missing here??? Help!

    Any opinions on FLA/ATL?

    Sanchez is really pitching well right now so they are attractive at +124 but Atlanta has been so hot lately. Are the Jones' back in the lineup for the Braves tonight?

    Rogers has made it through 6 innings only once in has last five and even in that game he was in a good amount of trouble all day (6 hits, 3 walk in 6 inn). The other four starts were pretty ugly (19 ER in 19 innings pitched).

    Byrd has had a couple shaky outings in his last 8 or so but overall has pitched well recently. He also has only allowed 2 er in 14 innings pitched against the Tigers this year. Also, yahoo has his ERA at 4.28 and not 4.78...its dropped a full run since June 1st.

    Only reason I'm not hitting the Indians harder is because they are so inconsistent but still made them my play of the day.

    My mistake...it is 4.28 you are correct. I'm not as concerned about Rogers because the Det bullpen is solid. Good luck tonight.
