[DaChosen1FoSho]

Giants over ATL (-131 SU, +115RL BetJam) Lincecum (12-3 2.67 ERA) vs Morton (3-6 6.11 ERA)

Reasons
1) Lincecum is starting
2) Morton now tries to bounce back at Turner Field, where he has been awful, going 0-5 with a 9.00 ERA in six starts.
3) The Braves have also been struggling at home lately, as Saturday's victory snapped a five-game losing streak at Turner Field. They have won only three of their last 14 in Atlanta, and have not won consecutive home games in a series since June 21 and 22 against Seattle.

I definitely like this game also.

LAA over CLE (-147 SU, +110 RL) Saunders (14-5 3.07 ERA) vs Sowers (1-6 5.70 ERA)

Reasons
1) The Angels have won all five of his starts since the All-Star break as he's gone 2-0 with a 3.06 ERA.
2) Sowers starts for the Indians seeking his first home win in nearly two years. He is 0-4 with a 5.11 ERA in 12 starts at Progressive Field since beating Detroit on Aug. 25, 2006.
3) He's (Sowers) won just twice in his last 28 starts overall, posting a 6.07 ERA. Sowers has pitched at least six innings in five consecutive starts, but he's winless in his last four and has given up four runs in three straight.
