15 Dime -- Mariners (Hernandez) over TIGERS (Porcello)

NOTE: List only Hernandez as Seattle's starting pitcher
King Felix has been good to me this year, and I'm going to go with him again today -- and with good reason.
Hernandez (12-4, 2.72 ERA) is contending for the Cy Young Award, and one of the reasons has been his performance on the road. The right-hander is 8-1 with an AL-best 1.96 ERA in 13 road starts, and Seattle has won his last eight outings away from home.

Hernandez also is 5-0 with a 3.45 ERA in his last five starts against Detroit. He already has beaten the Tigers twice this season, allowing four runs in 13 innings, and gave up one run and six hits in seven innings in his last outing against them.
Detroit starter Rick Porcello (10-7, 4.34) should be ready to go after serving a five-game suspension for beaning Boston's Kevin Youkilis. The rookie has not been very good at home, however, with a 4.92 ERA in 10 starts at Comerica Park, even though he has a 5-3 record there.

The right-hander is 2-0 with a 4.50 ERA in two outings against the Mariners this year. He allowed five runs and nine hits in five innings in his last start against them, on July 21.
Seattle has won 11 of Hernandez's last 12 starts overall. I think the beat goes on today. Take the Mariners in this one.

Marlins at Astros
Pick: Marlins -109
FOR THE LARGEST SELECTION OF FREE SERVlCE PLAYS VlSlT THESPREAD.COM
Florida is 27-9 their last 36 games as favorites and they are 6-1 their last 7 games vs. righty starters. The Marlins are 9-4 their last 13 road games and they are 6-1 their last 7 games with the Astros. Starting Pitcher Ricky Nolasco is 13-5 vs. losing teams. Houston starter Bud Norris is off a phony win in his last start where he allowed twice as many baserunners as innings pitched and still came away with a win. He won't be so lucky tonight as the Astros are 5-13 following a day off and they are 3-11 their last 14 Tuesday games.
