No play yesterday, but have won two in a row, and I like a side and total for Tuesday.
Baseball Plays (+2.91 units)
Chicago White Sox +103 (Garcia/Wang)
Chien-Ming Wang is on fire, having won his last five starts with a 1.65 ERA in that time period. The Yankees are playing well, having won 10 of 12. Still, I think most of that is the result of playing weak to mediocre opposition (Baltimore, Toronto, Tampa, Texas). No such luck here, as they head to US Cellular to play the defending World Series champs.
Wang's home numbers are incredible, but on the road he is average at best. His ERA is over 5, and the Yankees have only won 4 of his 10 road starts.
Garcia's home numbers are better than that, though not enough to make me crazy about it. But, the White Sox hit righties markedly better than the Yanks. At $100 a unit, the White Sox are +$1195 against RHSP this season (6.0 rpg), and the Yankees are -$740 (5.3 rpg).
Cardinals (Marquis) @ Reds (Milton) Under 10.5 (+100)
The Cardinals broke out offensively against inconsistent Ramirez, but I don't like their chances of repeating that against Milton. They've still gone under 13 of 17 (including the last five against lefties).
Cincy's hit lefties better than righties (4.5 rpg), and the Cards hit righties better than lefites (4.6 rpg). Milton started against the Cards once this year, and pitched seven scoreless innings. Marquis has had a pretty good amount of success against the Reds over the years, save one terrible outing.
Ballpark conducive to the over, but both starters have a high potential to throw a quality outing here, and both bullpens are pitching better. I think both lineups are a bit overrated as well.
Good luck everyone!
