Arizona D-backs Atlanta Braves
Pick: ATLANTA -136 over Florida
The Diamondbacks are 1-7 in their last 8 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600, while the Braves are 9-2 in their last 11 games as a favorite of -110 to -150 and 6-1 in Reyes' last 7 starts. Atlanta has been good at home this year going 20-5, while hitting .315 and scoring 6 rpg. The Brave have had some problems with lefties this year but they are facing Doug Davis, who is making his first start in a while and should be a bit rusty. You don't want to be rusty when facing this offense. Jo Jo Reyes has been solid at home this year going 2-0 with a 2.77 ERA. The Arizona offense has been slumping of late as they are hitting just .218 and scoring only 3 rpg in their last 7 games, plus they are coming off a series in Florida where they only scored 3 runs tpotal in 3 games. For the year Arizoina is scoring just 3.6 rpg and hitting .215 on the road. Arizona is 20-5 vs the West this year, but 5-14 vs the rest of the league, and at last check Atlanta wasn't in the West. The Braves continue to roll at home.

ARIZONA (D. Davis) +120 over ATLANTA (J. Reyes)
The Braves are coming off a dramatic four game sweep over the Mets, their division arch-rival, so look for a letdown in tonight's opener vs. Arizona.The Diamondbacks welcome Doug Davis back to the rotation, following a stint on the DL (3.73 ERA in three April starts) and he should fare well vs. an Atlanta team that has struggled vs. lefties (-$550 with only 3.7 runs per game). Despite some setbacks this past week, Arizona still has winnings marks vs.southpaws (+$260), so grab the underdog price on the visitor in this lefty vs. lefty showdown.

Kansas City at Toronto UNDER 7.5
Time to get some money back from Roy Halladay's most recent start, when he went against that bum Bonser, in the Metrodome, who allowed a grand slam in the first inning and caused Halladay to immediately relax too much. The Toronto ace is back home against an ordinary hitting opponent's best pitcher. Zack it to ya! In his last three starts, KC's Greinke has been matched against Badenhop (emphasize ''Bad''), Nate the Far From Great Robertson, and Jerk-ed Weaver. Moving up in class to Halladay makes it far tougher for his teammates to support him in the manner to which he has gotten accustomed against those other clowns.

San Antonio at LA Lakers OVER 193
If Kobe Bryant unties his hands for both halves instead of just one, then the Lakers get to the free throw line more frequently, lengthen the game,score consistently, get lazy on defense like they enjoy doing at times, and the game goes over.

1 Unit on Detroit Tigers -150
The Detroit Tigers are a solid favorite today after capping off a 3-game sweep of the Seattle Mariners. The Tigers finally got their bats going, scoring 30 runs in just 3 games against Seattle. This entire team is hitting with confidence right now and it will carry over against Kevin Slowey and the lowly Minnesota Twins tonight. Rookie righthander Armando Galarraga (3-1, 3.06 ERA) hopes to benefit from similar run support when he takes the hill for Detroit. Righthander Kevin Slowey (0-4, 5.49 ERA) is on a personal 4-game losing streak and it’s not about to end Friday. Detroit is 33-19 against the money line in home games revenging a 3 game sweep at the hands of their opponents since 1997. After getting swept by the Twins earlier this season, it’s time for a little payback in Detroit starting with Game 1 tonight. The home team has won all 5 games in this season series to this point. Cash in with the Tigers as the favorite.
