Seattle -112 Disadvantages - The game is being played in Cleveland, but with their home record of 20-26 it doesn't seem to matter.

Advantages - A pitching mismatch is big reason for liking Seattle in this game, Washburn vs Ohka. Ohkas last two starts are 3.2 ip 5 ER and 4.0 ip 6 ER. Even when this guy pitches at home oppenents hit .313 against him. Washburn on the other hand has been great with a 2.96 ERA overall. In his 3 starts in July he has a 1.96 ERA with opponents hitting .163 and that was three teams that all hit better than Cleveland (TEX, NYY, BALT).



Texas -1.5 +175 Disadvantages - Minnesota has been hotter with the bats lately, but with their history on the road and the rangers at home I expect this to change.

Advantages - Feldman pitching for Texas today is a key. He is 8-2 overall and has been throwing well lately going 2-0 with a 2.13 ERA so far this month. Baker for Minnesota is a .500 pitcher with a 5.42 ERA and he has been worse lately. In July he has a 9.64 ERA with opponents batting .357 against him. Today seems like a good day for the ranger bats to get back on track. As an added bonus they are playing at home where they have a great record of 28-18.
