Pirates ML (-142): Houston is a bad offensive team (They have under 4.1 runs/game) against an average starting pitcher (ERA= 4.20 to 5.20), with a WHIP of 1.250 or better on the season. Also, after the Pirates nearly got embarrassed by the Astros yesterday I see them coming out with some vengeance.
Yankees (+137): Although i'm not sure that I will bet on this game here is my reasoning for taking the Yankees. Starting pitcher for the Rays is David Price (he is a very skilled pitcher) but has recently had back problems and ball placement issues. Although his ERA at home is a 2.36 when he is pitching to the Yankees it shoots up to a 3.93. Also Yankees pitcher David Phelps pitches better during away games. The only thing that is scaring me out of betting is the fact that Phelps has lost 8 out of his last 10 starts.
Angels/Indians OVER 9 1/2 (-115): The Angels starting pitcher Ervin Santana has had an ERA of 9.00 over the past seven days, has an away ERA of 6.13. Although his ERA against CLE is a 2.57, their last matchup was months ago before his voodoo got messed up. Indians starting pitcher Derek Lowe has had an ERA of 6.75 over the past five days and has never faced the Angels who are a team capable of capitalizing off of misthrown balls.
Essentially this bet is hoping that both pitchers continue with their downward spiral into the abyss of Triple A.

Thanks all who followed today...Not as great as normal but up a few units. Learned my lesson on following other people, from now on I bet on only games I personally have 100% capped. Would have been 5-1 instead of 6-4.
