Detroit 58% - Clemens is likely to throw a strong game here. Robertson is likely to throw a quality start as well, but also to give up a few runs. Detroit has a major bullpen edge, and while the game is likely to be close with the starters in, Detroit will have a substantial edge when the bullpens get involved.
Baltimore 54% - Both starters are likely to have strong outings, but each have a small likelihood of getting hit hard. The lineups and bullpens are likely to rate roughly even.
Yankees 58% - Both starters are likely to get hit and leave the game early, and both bullpens are in bad shape right now. The Yankees rate a modest lineup edge, and while Ramirez has a greater likelihood of getting deeper into the game than Wright, Wright has a higher likelihood of a good outing. All this confers a modest overall edge to the Yankees, but with a high degree of uncertainty and a low confidence factor.
Boston 53% - This game features 2 similar lineups and starting pitchers. The Mets rate a significant and important edge in the pen, however. The expected performances of both starters have a high degree of uncertainty.
White Sox 62% - The powerful White Sox lineup will lose one of their big hitters with no DH here, and that somewhat mitigates their major edge in that area. Snell will still be very vulnerable to getting hit, however. The bullpens do rate roughly even. Buehrle is more likely than usual to get hit here, and his slightly high degree of volatility this year benefits Pittsburgh in this game.
Florida 53% - Kazmir has been very sharp this year, and he is likely to have another good outing, but it is also likely to be less dominant than usual. Nolasco on the other hand, is likely to have a stronger outing than usual. Tampa Bay has a small bullpen edge here, but it is not likely to factor in significantly unless the game goes into extra innings.
Toronto 64% - This game has a moderate degree of uncertainty to it. It is a somewhat dangerous spot for Burnett, although he is likely to throw another quality start. Ortiz is likely to get hit. The Toronto pen has had a high degree of volatility which benefits Washington here.
