Houston with Clemens (-120) over San Diego with Lawrence
Strong hitting Astros hold a dominant edge at the plate over the weak stroking Padres. Combined with the edge of Clemens over Lawrence, we'll look to play the under-achieving Astros in this set. Lawrence has decent numbers for the year, yet is just 2-3 at home with a 4.85 ERA. Clemens has been superb all year with a 2.63 ERA resulting in a record of 10-2, including a perfect 4.0 on the road. He's allowed just 82 hits in 102 innings pitched. He has a 107/40 K/BB ratio. Padre hitters should be off-balance when viewing his slants for the first time. Short price on the road with Clemens

ARIZONA (Webb) +129 at LA (Alvarez) -139
MLB - 8:10PM (EST)
Although Brandon Webb has pitched great at times for the Diamondbacks, his record has suffered due to a tremendous lack of run support. In Webb’s last 7 starts, Arizona has only scored 3 or more runs twice.
For LA Wilson Alvarez has been just awesome at Dodger Stadium – going (5-1) in 7 career starts with 1.26 ERA, allowing just 51 hits in 71 innings with 60 strikeouts.
The Diamondbacks have been just awful on the road this year going (14-26) & they’ve dropped their last 6 away from the desert. On the other hand, the Dodgers have been strong all season at home – winning 10 of their last 14 games. LA is (4-2) against Arizona this year and should take down the D-backs again on Monday night.
