I also like Houston +142. Play these two, and I think you at least get a split for a profit.

Oswalt +142 IS tempting.

I'm not a big believer in Hunter.
Getting a guy at this price with his track record on the road is extremely attractive.

I'd advice not to jump on Oswalt as an underdog, especially not against a hot hitting team like Texas.
I like the Det play, but ATL is very strong at home.

Oswalt is tempting but not against this hitting team. With the addition of Vlad these guys just knock the ball around all day. Its insane!

im on detroit tomorrow too, but a little nervous about it...
but those numbers on Hansons last 3 starts are a little inflated to be fair...
his last start he gave up nine runs in 3 2/3, which is what makes those numbers above 6.00 he actually was pitching gems for 4 starts before his last one with a era in the mid 2's
but his day starts numbers are encouraging... I have noticed that the past couple years... pay attention to pitchers that prefer night starts or more to the point hate daytime starts, I think it seriously messes with them... I noticed this with Cole Hamels last year in the playoffs when he was whining about it... sure enough almost every daytime start after that he got jacked up...
also... Magglio may not start, but he is 3 for 20 in his last 7 games, so that might be a good thing....
and Heyward is likely not playing
I am taking detriot just trying to convince myself to pull the trigger without hesitations

FTR, I still like Oswalt tonight despite everyone and their grandmother being on Texas. Not sure if I'll play it or not, but I noticed the sharps pounded Houston early (line went from Texas -160 to -151), only to see the public push it back up. If it dips before game time the way I anticipate, I might make a small wager there.

Sharps are hammering Houston late just like I anticipated.
Texas has gone from -180 to -169 in the last 30 minutes.
