10* Mariners/Twins Over 8
Plenty of over 8's out there tonight. Both starters have given up runs lately as Fister has allowed 15 runs in his last 15 innings on the road while Scott Baker has an ERA of 6.62 in his last 3 starts. Fister's ERA on the road is 5.74.
After a road trip and going back to Minnesota, the Twins have 5 overs and one under. They have scored 5, 10, 15, 7, 5 and 7 runs in those contests. The Twins are hitting .390 in their last 7 games and I hope to see them score early and often.
Maybe the Mariners can add to the total and score a few as they did in Chicago.

NY Mets -145
Simply put, any time I can get a 32-17 home team at less than -150 at home against a 13-36 road team that has lost seven straight overall, I'm going to jump on that home team. Such is the situation with the Mets & D'backs tonight. Pelfrey finally had a decent start his last time out, and he owns a solid 3.19 ERA at home this season. Kennedy owns a 4.70 ERA on the road and we all know how horrible the Arizona pen is, especially on the road (7.63 ERA, 2.00 WHIP, .324 BAA). For me, it's easily worth the risk laying this price on the Mets/Pelfrey tonight.
BOB BALFE
Cincinnati Reds -137
The Braves are feeling the heat from the Phillies pressure climbing up the NL East ladder. Cincinnati is a great home team and has played well with Johnny Cueto on the mound this year. Look for the Reds to put up a good amount of runs and win this game with ease. Take Cincinnati.

7* SF Giants -180
For a number of different reasons I believe the value in this contest is on the home side:
Carlos Monasterios heads to the hill for the home side; Monasterios pitched well in his last outing, but keep in mind; the Dodgers are just 1-6 their last seven overall; 22-27 (-6.5 units) on the road this year.
He's 3-2 on the year with a 3.30 ERA.
In the other dugout: Tim Lincecum gets the nod for the visitors; Lincecum allowed just two runs off nine hits vs. the D-Backs on Sunday; he had five K's and walked one over eight frames.
He's got 143 K's on the year; he's 4-1 with a 3.54 ERA vs. the Dodgers lifetime; 10-4 3.12 ERA on the year.
San Francisco is 17-5 its last 22 overall; 39-27 (+9 units) in "night games"; 5-3 (+2 1/2 units) after getting shut-out in its previous contest and an awesome 7-1 (+5.1 units) as a home favorite in the -175 to -200 range.
Bottom line: LA has been struggling at the plate and are seven games behind the Padres for the division lead; its only scored 30 runs in 14 games since the break.
San Francisco is coming off a listless 5-0 defeat to the Marlins and will be looking for a better effort across the board behind its ace;
