Tips and Trends

Atlanta Braves at St. Louis Cardinals [FOX | 3:55 PM ET]

Braves: Jorge Campillo started the season out strong but he?s been touched up pretty good over his last three starts. In his last 18 innings of work, Campillo has given up 22 hits and 15 runs. The good news for Braves backers is that Campillo has been sensational on the road, sporting an ERA of 2.13 away from home this season. He faced the Cardinals back on July 29, getting a no-decision after allowing just two runs over seven innings. The UNDER is 3-1 in Campillo?s last four starts.

Braves are 7-20 in their last 27 games overall.
The OVER is 10-4-1 in Atlanta's last 15 games overall.

Key Injuries - 1B Casey Kotchman (.266; bereavement list) is OUT.

PROJECTED SCORE: 4

Cardinals (-145, O/U 9): After being one of the Cardinals most consistent pitchers for most of the year, Kyle Lohse is in a terrible slump right now. He?s 1-4 in his last five starts, allowing 21 runs in 27.2 innings over that stretch. Lohse could end his cold streak tonight at home, where he?s 7-2 with a 3.08 ERA on the year. Lohse has faced the Braves four times in his career, going 2-1 with an ERA of 5.16. The UNDER is 4-2 in Lohse?s last six starts at home.

Cardinals are 20-7 in their last 27 Saturday games.
Cardinals are 7-2 in Lohse's last 9 home starts.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 6 (Side Play of the Day)

Tampa Bay Rays at Chicago White Sox [FOX | 3:55 PM ET]

Rays: Scott Kazmir has been consistent over his last five starts, allowing just two runs in four of those outings. However, he?s just 1-1 with three no-decisions over that span, thanks to little run support from the Rays offense. Kazmir hasn?t been the same pitcher away from home, where he?s 4-5 with a 3.90 ERA. He has had success, however, against the White Sox. Kazmir is 3-1 in his career against Chicago with a strong 3.08 ERA. The UNDER is 6-2 in Kazmir?s last eight starts.

Rays are 17-5 in their last 22 games overall.
The UNDER is 20-8 in Tampa Bay's last 28 road games.

Key Injuries - 3B Evan Longoria (.278; wrist) is on the 15-day DL.
OF Carl Crawford (.273; hand) is OUT for the season.

PROJECTED SCORE: 4

White Sox (-145, O/U 9): Javier Vazquez has won two starts in a row, pitching extremely well in both games. In wins over the Royals and A?s, Vazquez only allowed nine hits and one run in 16 innings of work. Vazquez is 6-4 at home this season, although his ERA is an average 4.11. In 11 career starts against the Rays, Vazquez is 5-3 with an ERA of 4.28. In his last three starts, the OVER is 2-0-1.

White Sox are 40-14 in their last 54 home games.
White Sox are 8-3 in the last 11 meetings at Chicago.

Key Injuries - White Sox DH Jim Thome (.251; leg) has returned.

PROJECTED SCORE: 5

Los Angeles Dodgers at Philadelphia Phillies [FOX | 3:55 PM ET]

Dodgers: Clayton Kershaw is 2-0 with three no-decisions in his last five starts but he's been sensational over that stretch. Kershaw has only given up five runs in his last 31 innings of work. Kershaw faced the Phillies for the first time on August 12, getting a no-decision after allowing three runs over six innings in a game the Dodgers won 4-3. The UNDER is 4-1 in Kershaw's last five starts.

Dodgers are 2-7 in their last 9 road games.
The UNDER is 9-4-2 in the last 15 meetings.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 3 (UNDER - Total Play of the Day)

Phillies (-180, O/U 8.5): You wouldn't know it by his record, but Cole Hamels has pitched very well over his last 10 starts, allowing three runs or less seven times. However, he's just 3-3 with four no-decisions in his last 10 outings because the Phillies offense refuses to score when he?s on the mound. In Hamels' last three starts, there have been a total of 13 runs scored, with each game easily going UNDER the total. Hamels' first career start against the Dodgers came on August 12, where he took a no-decision after allowing just two runs over seven innings of work.

Phillies are 10-2 in Hamels' last 12 Saturday starts.
The OVER is 6-2 in Philadelphia's last 8 Saturday games.

Key Injuries - OF Geoff Jenkins (.246; quad) is doubtful

PROJECTED SCORE: 4
