Tips and Trends

Boston Red Sox at New York Yankees [YES | 1:05 PM ET]

Red Sox (-130, O/U 9.5): Boston ace Josh Beckett is looking to rebound from a tough stretch in which he has earned just one win in four starts despite pitching fairly well. Beckett has allowed just two runs in each of his last two starts but has gone 0-1 because his teammates have backed him with just three runs. Run support has not been a problem for him against the Yankees lately though, as the Sox have scored 21 runs in his last three starts vs. New York. That has helped Beckett go 6-3 lifetime against them despite an inflated 5.87 ERA.

Red Sox are 1-5 in their last 6 road games.
The OVER is 9-1 in Beckett's last 10 Friday starts.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 6 (Side Play of the Day)

Yankees: Darrell Rasner has suffered losses in six of his last seven trips to the mound, but he has earned three of his four wins at home. He is 3-1 in four starts at Yankee Stadium and has pitched there just twice in his last seven outings, splitting a pair of decisions after allowing four runs in 13 innings with five walks and eight strikeouts. Rasner has never pitched against the Red Sox.

Yankees are 1-6 in Rasner's last 7 starts.
The UNDER is 7-2 in New York's last 9 home games.

Key Injuries - OF Hideki Matsui (.323; knee) is on the 15-day DL.

Dodgers: Derek Lowe has struggled away from home this season, earning just one road victory in nine starts. He is 1-4 on the road with a 4.62 ERA, with the Dodgers scoring just one run combined in his last two outings overall. Lowe earned a win in his last road start at Cincinnati on June 18th though, allowing just one run and three hits in 5.1 innings. He is 3-5 lifetime vs. San Francisco with a 3.38 ERA.

Dodgers are 21-10 in the last 31 meetings.
The UNDER is 10-1 in LA's last 11 games overall.

Giants are 6-17 in their last 23 home games.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 4

Chicago Cubs at St. Louis Cardinals [WGN | 8:15 PM ET]

Cubs (-130, O/U 8.5): Chicago ace Carlos Zambrano will make his first start since a right shoulder strain put him on the DL. His last start came June 18th at Tampa Bay, when he surrendered five runs and seven hits in 6.2 innings of a 5-4 loss. That marked Zambrano's second straight road loss, and he is just 4-3 away from home with a 4.08 ERA.

Cubs are 8-0 in Zambrano's last 8 starts vs. St. Louis.
Cubs are 2-8 in their last 10 road games.

Key Injuries - OF Reed Johnson (.271; back) has returned.
OF Alfonso Soriano (.283; broken hand) is on the 15-day DL.

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

Cardinals: Braden Looper will make his first home start since June 18th, when he allowed one run and five hits in seven innings of an eventual 3-2 loss to the Royals. The Cardinals have won each of his last two starts - both on the road - even though he lasted just 3.1 innings last time out at Kansas City. He is 4-3 at home with a 4.50 ERA.

The OVER is 4-0-1 in St. Louis' last 5 games overall.
The OVER is 6-2 in Looper's last 8 starts overall.

PROJECTED SCORE: 3

Angels (-130, O/U 7.5): Jered Weaver will try to mind the most mind-boggling start of his career behind him when he toes the rubber for LA. Weaver did not allow a hit in six innings last time out on Saturday against the Dodgers but was pulled down 1-0 after an error he made eventually allowed the only run of the game to score. He has given up one run in three of his last four starts and is 3-4 at home with a 3.73 ERA.

The UNDER is 15-7-2 in LA's last 24 home games.
The UNDER is 13-3-2 in LA's last 18 Friday games.

Key Injuries - NONE
