Salutations and Happy Saturday. Let's make some books and bookies cry into their cereal. 
NYY/BOS - under\10.5 {-115}
Scoring festivals such as Game 1 of this series, tend to be followed up by low scoring affairs. Burnett has approx. a 1-2 O/U ratio (his most recent tilt against the Sox resulted in a final score of 0-2). Tazawa is still as yet unproven in this league. Being as such, the Yanks will have never faced him prior to today; which usually lends an advantage to the pitcher. These two played a game at Fenway in April w/ a 11-16 final. The next game's score was 1-4 (Pettitte pitched for NYY in that 2nd game - how ironic).
(A) CHC [even]
Thus far on the Cubbies current road trip. They've been playing 'lose two games, win one game'. Granted, this is a four-game set between they and L.A. (not a three-game - like in San Diego). However, that third game in San Diego was also against an unknown pitcher; yet that alone was not enough to keep Chicago from scoring a decisive victory. CHC got swept out of the 1st Round of last year's post-season. On a semi-national stage today, I gotta believe they compass themselves to some recompense.
(A) FLA +156
Hanson is a difficult pitcher to place one's chips against. However, nothing is a certainty. Given that this is the Marlins first game against him, might be cause for ATL being picked as a heavier favorite ('yes' even despite and taking into account last night's FLA victory). What comes down to, for me, is simple. It's been a lil' while since the Braves have lost two games on the row; and it's been a lil' bit of time since the Fish have scored two victories on the row. I have some other reasons, to which I'm hanging my hat upon w/ this one. I believe it best that I bare those reasons burden on my own.
Besides, I'm sure there are more than a few whom have ATL picked in this game. Nothing I do or don't say will change their mind. Which is fine. I get it. I wish them well.
