I split with my last posted picks Thursday, breaking even as I won with a fave and lost with a dog.
1* White Sox +134
I think the wrong Sox team is favored here. Consider:
1) White Sox are 14-9 in Danks starts while Boston is only 11-10 in Beckett starts;
2) White Sox are an incredible 39-18 at home while the Red Sox are a poor 27-35 on the road;
3) Danks' ERA is nearly a full point lower than Beckett's (althought their WHIPs are almost identical);
4) White Sox, being streaky, are 40-25 this year after a win and have been spectacular as a home dog;
5) The Red Sox have played poorly against strong competition all year as they are only 23-32 against teams with winning records!
All of this points to value on the dog.

Opinion only:
Packers -3
I don't play pre-season games for more than a small amount but GB's QBs will be HIGHLY motivated tonight and their teammates and the coaching staff have a strong incentive in having Rodgers and Brohm play well.
