7-8 the last 15 MLB plays

Sport: MLB Baseball

Game: Oakland Athletics @ Boston Red Sox - Wednesday July 8, 2009 7:10 pm

Pick: 4 units (Play of the Day) RUNLINE:Boston Red Sox -1.5 (+110)

4 Unit Play. Take the Boston Redsox -1.5 (+110) over the Oakland A's (Wednesday @ 7:10pm est). I'm not a big run-line player and never have been, but this game does call for it for a couple of reasons. For starters, Boston is in a very tight race for the division with the Yankees and they continue to one-up each other with wins. Boston is 50-33 while the Yankees are 49-34 as the Redsox cling to their short edge as they head into the All-Star Break. This is also the rubber game of this series as they have split the series thus far with Oakland 1-1. Tack that on with the fact that Wakefield comes off a shaky start where he gave up 5 runs to Seattle in 8 innings for a rare loss, he is on the bounce-back today which is usually when we ride the Melbourne, Florida native. We have ridden Wake plenty of times both on the Under as well as on the Side when he is on a bounce-back as he is 10-3 for a reason and rarely has back to back non-quality starts. The A's are 0-4 when Cahill starts with a total set at this mark. Cahill has struggled considerably of late and I just don't think he will all of a sudden have a huge change in effort in Fenway. Boston is highly talented and even the best performance of Cahill could still yield to a Redsox -1.5 win as Wake is on the bounce-back and the Redsox offense is stout. Cahill has given up 12 runs in 5 innings of late and he is on a bounce-back of sorts, but I simply think it might be asking him too much to have a bounce-back in Fenway. I do think he bounces back at home when he returns to Oakland as we will likely take him for the side then. Let's roll with the RSox as Wakefield is on the bounce-back, the Redsox look to keep their lead in the division and they look to win this series as Cahill has struggled a bit of late.

Wednesday's Comp Selection

11-7 Comp Winners

11-7 Last 17 Comp Selections. Take Under 9.5 between NY Yankees @ Minnesota Twins (Wednesday @ 8:10pm). The total seems a bit on the high side as the Yankees continue their roll over the AL. Burnett has given up just 3 runs in his last 27 innings as he is 3-1 during that stretch as he slowly begins to reduce his ERA down to 3.83. I look for him to have another strong effort as the Yankees look to keep pace with the Redsox and vice-verca. Perkins has put together back to back solid starts both against the Royals and Cards on the road as he gave up just 2 runs in 14 innings helping his team win 5-1 and 3-1. He has pitched 3 of 4 quality starts and it seems he is getting things back in order as his era has come back down a bit to 4.38. I look for both pitchers to have a strong outing today likely as this game has a decent chance of dipping Under. The Under is 8-1 for the Yankees when the total is set at this range and the Under is 8-2 for the Twins Overall.
