"The Mariners won last night in Texas to make it two straight wins on the road and they can build onto that momentum to try and end the season on a high. The Rangers had their three-game winning streak snapped last night but winning is far from a priority here as they try and get ready for the playoffs beginning next week. Texas had won five straight at home prior to Monday’s loss and right now it is about resting players to get them fresh for the postseason. Cliff Lee was supposed to start tonight but he was pushed to Friday to put him a normal schedule heading into the playoffs where he will get the start in Game One of the ALDS. That gives the Mariners a huge edge in the matchup tonight. Hernandez has a 2.31 ERA heading into tonight after two straight quality starts which came after a poor effort against the Angels prior to those. He has now allowed one run or less in eight of his last nine starts which has lowered his ERA from 2.84 to its current number. One of his most recent starts came against Texas where he allowed only one run in eight innings which happened to be the eighth quality outing in his last 10 starts against the Rangers. Scott Feldman will pick up a spot start Tuesday as Texas aligns its' rotation for the postseason as mentioned. He is making only his second start since being moved to the bullpen at the end of July and after being named the Opening Day starter, it shows the tough season he has had. He has a 5.45 ERA overall including a 5.55 ERA in 21 starts. Before being moved to the pen, quality starts were few and far between as he has only one quality performance in his last seven. Seattle is 25-11 in Hernandez’ 36 starts over the last two years when playing a team with a winning record while Texas is 3-13 in Feldman’s last 16 home starts in the second half of the season over the last two years."Comment -
"The Tribe is hot right now and the price is right, so let's back the home team here. Detroit is a horrible 19-35 vs. righties in road games this year, not to mention 0-8 if they've won six or seven of their last eight games. Cleveland is 11-3 playing at home off back to back wins. The Tigers have had no luck at Progressive Field this season (1-6) and we don't expect that to change in the waning days of the season"Comment -
"Did you know the Cubs have the second-best record in baseball since August 23? They do at 20-11, behind just the Phillies. That's when interim manager Mike Quade took over for Chicago.
The Cubs have been doing most of their damage on the road, winning 16 of their last 19 away contests. They are 12-4 the past 16 times they've been an underdog.
The Cubs shut out the Padres on Monday night as underdogs behind Carlos Zambrano. Now Ryan Dempster goes. He got shelled in his last start, but prior to that Dempster had given up just three earned runs in his past three starts spanning 18 2/3 innings. He had 18 strikeouts in those 18 2/3 innings.
San Diego is having problems scoring runs again. The Padres are averaging only 2.6 runs in their past eight games.
The Padres are going with 22-year-old Matt Latos, who has thrown a career-high 173 innings after pitching just 50 last season. Latos clearly has hit the wall losing his last three starts while posting a hideous 13.94 ERA during this span.
San Diego's bullpen hasn't been as good either, largely due to overwork as the long season winds down. Padres starters have averaged just 5 2/3 innings during the last six games."

You guys notice the movement in the Mil/NYM game? Mil opened at -125 now they're a +125 dog. I don't really care for the Mets but the big movement has me thinking about them.Comment -
mets are my biggest play tonight.
2 units ML playComment -
I'm not sure. I know now it lists Wolf vs Pelfrey. Not sure if it changed. A jump like that would have to be due to pitching change. Det/Clev last night had a similar jump in price as well so maybe not.Comment -
What do you think about Tor +175 No Coin? I don't have specific stats but it seems to me that the Yanks always struggle when facing a pitcher for the first time this year. I wouldnt be surprised to see the Yanks get swept in Tor & Boston sweeping CHW to set up a huge season ending series between the two for the wild card.Comment -

bookies think phillies won't turn up today.
public is pounding them. line is adjusting, so its not a complete bloodbath if phillie wins.
read into it what you will. i'm staying the fvck against a game where it is impossible to predict whether either or both teams are actually going to come play ball.
i've loved oswalt since he's been at philly and still think they win, but i'm not going there. 1.76 ERA since being traded... are you joking - wow.Comment -
