    Wednesday's hot picks
    YTD: 5-5 +1.11
    Yesterday: 1-1 +0.23

    Wednesday's hot picks

    Marlins +142
    Marlins are 5-0 in Nolascos last 5 starts after scoring 5 runs or more in their previous game.
    Marlins are 11-1 in Nolascos last 12 starts after allowing 5 runs or more in their previous game.
    Marlins are 7-1 in Nolascos last 8 road starts.
    Phillies are 4-0 in Myers' last 4 starts.
    Phillies are 3-11 in Myers' last 14 starts after allowing 5 runs or more in their previous game.
    Phillies are 3-8 in Myers' last 11 starts when their opponent allows 5 runs or more in their previous game.
    Phillies are 1-5 in Myers' last 6 starts vs. Marlins.

    Remark: While Myers has been fine in his last 4, the odds seem heavily stacked in Marlin's favor.

    TB Rays +180
    Rays are 1-5 in Sonnanstine's last 6 road starts.
    Red Sox are 1-5 in Beckett's last 6 home starts.
    Red Sox are 4-1 in Becketts last 5 starts vs. Rays.
    Rays are 8-2 in their last 10 road games vs. a right-handed starter.
    Rays are 11-3 in their last 14 during game 3 of a series.
    Rays are 8-3 in their last 11 Wednesday games.

    Remark: Neither side seems to have an edge in this one. However, one feels the Rays can repeat what they did yesterday. More so, Beckett's home record isn't any better than Sonnantine's road record. Beckett is 5-4, 6.02 ERA at home while Sonnantine is 6-4, 4.47 ERA on the road.

      Marlins are a good pick. I don't think the rays win.

        Fifawcs,

        I see where you're coming from but I think the Rays can repeat what they did yesterday. On current form, Beckett isn't any better than Sonnanstine. When it comes to the bullpens, the Rays have the edge as evidenced yesterday. This one is a toss up but one would think the Rays have a slight edge.

        Another pick we may consider is White Sox +126.
        Halladay is 1-4 against Buerhle.
