Tips and Trends

Los Angeles Angels at Cleveland Indians [FOX | 3:55 PM ET]

Angels (-135, O/U 8.5): John Lackey hasn't lost a start since July 5 but strong run support has helped bail him out over his last seven appearances. Over that span, Lackey has given up a pedestrian 30 runs in 45.2 innings pitched. Lackey was hammered his last time out against Cleveland, allowing six runs in just five innings of work. However, the Angels offense outscored the Tribe 14-11 to capture the win. Lackey is a stellar 5-1 on the road this season with a 2.73 ERA. Six of Lackey's last seven starts have easily gone OVER the total.

Angels are 11-2 in Lackey's last 13 starts.
The OVER is 8-3 in LA's last 11 games overall.

Key Injuries - 3B Maicer Izturis (.269; thumb) is OUT for the season.

PROJECTED SCORE: 6 (OVER - Total Play of the Day)

Indians: Fausto Carmona has started four games since returning from the DL but he hasn't returned to form as of yet. Carmona has allowed a mind-boggling 24 runs in just 19 innings of work since his return. He's allowed at least four runs in each of those starts. Carmona has faced the Angels once his career, allowing just one run over six innings in that start. Carmona's last five outings have all easily gone OVER the total.

Indians are 6-2 in their last 8 home games.
The OVER is 6-2 in Cleveland's last 8 home games.

Key Injuries - SS Jhonny Peralta (.278; hand) is day-to-day.

PROJECTED SCORE: 4

Seattle Mariners at Minnesota Twins [FOX | 3:55 PM ET]

Mariners: Ryan Rowland-Smith comes out of the bullpen to make his fourth start of the season for the Mariners today. In his most recent outing versus Tampa Bay, Rowland-Smith took a no-decision after allowing four runs in just 5.2 innings. However, in his two prior starts, he had only given up two runs over nine innings. This will be Rowland-Smith's first career start versus the Twins.

Mariners are 1-5 in their last 6 games overall.
The OVER is 5-0 in Seattle's last 5 games overall.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 4

Twins (-210, O/U 9): Scott Baker has been solid for the Twins most of this season but he's struggled a bit during his last three starts, giving up 12 runs in 18.1 innings on the mound. However, over his last 10 starts Baker has been very consistent overall, allowing three runs or less seven times. Baker is 3-1 at home this year with a strong 2.83 ERA but he's 0-2 in four career starts against the Mariners. The OVER is 4-0 in Baker's last four starts.

Twins are 6-2 in their last 8 games overall.
The OVER is 21-6-1 in the last 28 meetings.

Key Injuries - OF Michael Cuddyer (.252; foot) is OUT for the season.

PROJECTED SCORE: 5

Chicago White Sox at Oakland Athletics [FOX | 3:55 PM ET]

White Sox (-140, O/U 8): John Danks has only lost once in his last 10 starts but it was his most recent outing against Boston. However, Danks pitched well enough to win that game, allowing just two runs over seven innings. After four subpar performances, Danks has been strong in his last two outings versus the Red Sox and Tigers, allowing a total of three runs in 13.2 innings of work. Danks is 5-1 on the road this season and a perfect 3-0 in his career versus the A's to go along with a minuscule 1.35 ERA. The OVER is 4-2 in Danks' last four starts

White Sox are 6-28 in the last 34 meetings at Oakland.
White Sox are 2-7 in their last 9 road games.

Key Injuries - 3B Joe Crede (.255; back) is on the 15-day DL.

PROJECTED SCORE: 6 (Side Play of the Day)

A's: Greg Smith hasn't experienced the thrill of victory since June 30 and Oakland has lost five consecutive games with him on the mound. Smith is 2-4 in nine home starts this year, although his ERA is a respectable 3.34. Smith was hit pretty hard his last time out against the White Sox back on July 5, allowing four runs over five innings. He also walked six batters in that game. Despite his poor record the UNDER has cashed an amazing 12 straight times when Smith takes the rubber.

A's are 5-23 in their last 28 games overall.
The UNDER is 26-11-2 in the last 39 meetings.

Key Injuries - OF Ryan Sweeney (.283; thumb) is on the 15-day DL.

PROJECTED SCORE: 3
