Oswalt is 6-2 with two no-decisions in his last 10 starts and the Astros have won five consecutive games with him on the mound. Oswalt has been particularly nasty in his last three starts, allowing just four runs in 22 innings of work. In his career versus the Mets, Oswalt is 5-4 with a 3.71 ERA. Even though he’s been on fire of late, the OVER is 4-1-1 in Oswalt’s last six starts.
PROJECTED SCORE: 4 (OVER - Total Play of the Day) Astros are 10-4 in their last 14 games overall.
The UNDER is 9-4 in Houston's last 13 Friday games.
Mets (-210, O/U 7.5): Johan Santana hasn’t always received a lot of run support this season but the Mets have gotten their money’s worth out of the former Cy Young Award winner. Santana hasn’t dropped a game since June 28, a tough 3-2 loss to the Yankees. In his last 10 starts, Santana has given up more than three runs only once. Santana has been tough at Shea, where he’s 5-3 with a strong 2.41 ERA this season. However, his last three home starts have all gone OVER the total.
Rays: After winning four consecutive starts, Edwin Jackson lost his last outing against Texas, although it was far from his fault. Jackson took the loss despite holding the Rangers to just one run over six innings. In his last 25.2 innings of work, Jackson has only given up a total of nine runs. Jackson hasn’t had any success against the White Sox over his career. In three starts he’s 0-2 with a 7.71 ERA. The UNDER is 5-1 in Jackson’s last six road starts.
PROJECTED SCORE: 5 (Side Play of the Day) Rays are 16-5 in their last 21 games overall.
The UNDER is 20-7 in Tampa Bay's last 27 road games..
White Sox (-165, O/U 9): John Danks is coming off an impressive performance versus Oakland, getting the win after allowing just one run in six innings of work. In his last three starts, Danks has given up just four runs in 19.2 innings pitched. He’s actually been better on the road than at home, where he’s just 4-4 on the season. However, Danks owns Tampa, going 3-0 with an impressive 2.50 ERA. After the OVER had cashed in four straight outings with Danks on the mound, the UNDER is now 3-0 in his last three starts.
PROJECTED SCORE: 3

Minnesota Twins at Los Angeles Angels
Twins: Despite not pitching great, Glen Perkins has won his last two starts and three of his last four. During that span Perkins has allowed 13 runs over 26.1 innings. Perkins has allowed four runs or more in four of his last five starts but the Twins are 3-2 thanks to an offense that has provided him with strong run support all season. Perkins is 3-1 in seven starts on the road, although his ERA is 4.60. The OVER is 3-1 the last four times Perkins has taken the mound.
PROJECTED SCORE: 4 Twins are 13-3 in their last 16 Friday games.
Twins are 9-3 in Perkins' last 12 starts.

Angels (-170, O/U 8.5): Joe Saunders has received three no-decisions in a row but he’s pitched pretty well in those games, giving up seven runs over 18 innings of work. The Angels lost to the Indians in Saunders last start but before that the team had won five consecutive games with him on the mound. Saunders has baffled the Twins both times he’s faced them in his career, going 2-0 with a minuscule 1.20 ERA. In his last 10 starts, the UNDER has a slight 6-4 advantage.
