Tips and Trends
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Texas Rangers at Boston Red Sox [ESPN | 7:05 PM ET]

Rangers: Luis Mendoza has been battered over his last four starts. During that stretch, Mendoza has allowed 21 runs in just 19.1 innings of work. He has one career start versus Boston where Mendoza possesses an ERA of 21.00 after giving up seven runs in just three innings on the mound. Mendoza has been terrible overall in 2008 but he's been particularly bad on the road, where he's 1-3 with an 8.46 ERA. The OVER is always a good bet when Mendoza pitches because he usually gets you halfway their on his own. The OVER is 4-0 in his last four starts.

The OVER is 7-2 in Texas' last 9 road games.
The OVER is 6-2-1 in Mendoza's last 9 starts overall.

Key Injuries - DH Milton Bradley (.321; illness) has returned.

PROJECTED SCORE: 5 (OVER - Total Play of the Day)

Red Sox (-240, O/U 10.5): After allowing just four runs overall in three prior starts, Jon Lester was touched up for four runs alone in his last outing versus the White Sox. Still, Lester has been a machine over his last 10 appearances, allowing two runs or less an impressive seven times. The Red Sox are also 8-2 over that span. Lester is 6-1 with a strong 2.87 ERA at Fenway Park this season but in two career starts against the Rangers, his ERA is a below average 5.06. The OVER has cashed in two of Lester's last three starts.

Red Sox are 8-3 in their last 11 games on grass.
Red Sox are 32-9 in the last 41 meetings at Boston.

Key Injuries - DH David Ortiz (.260; wrist) has returned.

PROJECTED SCORE: 7



Seattle Mariners at Los Angeles Angels [10:05 PM ET]

Mariners: Felix Hernandez is just 7-7 on the year but that has more to do with the Mariners inept offense than it does his pitching. For instance, Hernandez has allowed just 10 runs in his last four starts but is 0-1 with three no-decisions over that stretch. For all the success King Felix has enjoyed in his career, the Angels are one of the few teams that have given him problems. Hernandez is just 3-4 with a 4.79 ERA in nine starts versus Anaheim. The UNDER is 6-3-1 in Hernandez's last 10 starts.

Mariners are 11-28 in the last 39 meetings.
The OVER is 8-1 in Seattle's last 9 games as an underdog.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 3

Angels (-150, O/U 7.5): Ervin Santana continues to make his case for Cy Young consideration with a 13-5 record and 3.45 ERA on the year. However, he's been a little shaky over his last four starts, giving up 13 runs in 27 innings of work, and that includes a shutout in there. Santana has done well in his career against Seattle, compiling a 5-2 record and holding Mariner hitters to a .232 average. In Santana's last five appearances, the UNDER has dominated, going 4-1.

Angels are 15-3 in their last 18 home games.
The OVER is 7-2 in LA's last 9 games overall.

Key Injuries - C Jeff Mathis (.212; eye) is OUT indefinitely.

PROJECTED SCORE: 4



Philadelphia Phillies at Los Angeles Dodgers [10:10 PM ET]

Phillies: After struggling in his first two games with the Phillies, Joe Blanton has turned it on of late. In his last two starts, Blanton has allowed just five hits and one run over 14 innings. He also has 12 strikeouts in those two games. Blanton has started one game against the Dodgers back when he was a member of the Oakland A's, getting the win after pitching eight strong innings. Blanton's last two starts have easily gone UNDER, combining for a total of just five runs.

Phillies are 1-5 in the last 6 meetings.
The UNDER is 5-1-1 in Philadelphia's last 7 games overall.

Key Injuries - 3B Pedro Feliz (.256 back) is on the 15-day DL.

PROJECTED SCORE: 5 (Side Play of the Day)

Dodgers (-120, O/U 8): Brad Penny had lost five decisions in a row and seven of eight before finally getting in the win column his last time out against the Giants. Penny went just five innings but got the win after allowing only one run. Despite his recent struggles, Penny has an impressive career record versus the Phillies, going 8-4 with a strong 3.33 ERA in 19 starts. Pitching at home hasn't been much of an advantage for Penny this season where he possesses an ERA of 5.07. Surprisingly, the UNDER is 4-2 in his last six starts.

Dodgers are 10-3 in their last 12 home games.
The OVER is 8-2-2 in the last 12 meetings.

Key Injuries - SS Nomar Garciaparra (.279; knee) has returned.

PROJECTED SCORE: 4
