Tips and Trends

Arizona Diamondbacks at Boston Red Sox [ESPN2 | 7:05 PM ET]

Diamondbacks: The Big Unit has been the Big Disappointment of late. Johnson has lost his last four decisions and Arizona has come out on the short end of the stick in his last six starts overall. Johnson has been basically batting practice in his previous 18 innings of work, allowing 27 hits and 20 runs over that span. Johnson has, however, experienced a lot of success against the Red Sox from his time in the American League. The Big Unit is 16-7 with a 4.47 ERA in 29 career starts versus Boston. Despite his struggles, the UNDER is 4-0 in Johnson's last four starts on the road.

Diamondbacks are 7-18 in their last 25 road games.
The UNDER is 13-3 in Johnson's last 16 road starts.

Key Injuries - OF Eric Byrnes (.219; hamstrings) has been activated from the 15-day DL.

PROJECTED SCORE: 4

Red Sox (-170, O/U 9): Amazingly, 41-year old Tim Wakefield is the youngster in this matchup with 45-year old Randy Johnson. Wakefield only has two victories in his last 10 appearances, although he's pitched well in his five most recent outings. In his last 36 innings pitched, Wakefield has allowed 11 runs but he has only one win over that span. Despite his lengthy career, this will be the knuckleballer's first-ever start against the Diamondbacks.

Red Sox are 50-14 in their last 64 interleague games.
Red Sox are 39-12 in their last 51 home games.

Key Injuries - DH David Ortiz (.252; hand) is on the 15-day DL.
RP Mike Timlin (3-3; knee) is on the 15-day DL).

PROJECTED SCORE: 5

New York Yankees at Pittsburgh Pirates [YES | 7:05 PM ET]

Yankees (-180, O/U 9): Even though he has yet to record a win, it's looking like the Yankees decision to make Joba Chamberlain a starter may have been the correct one. New York has won three of Joba's four starts, in large part due to him allowing just seven runs in 18.1 innings of work. The Yanks have won each of Chamberlain's last two outings by a score of 2-1. In his lone road start this year against the Astros, Joba allowed only one run over six innings.

Yankees are 8-3 in their last 11 games overall.
The UNDER is 6-2 in New York's last 8 Wednesday games.

Key Injuries - OF Johnny Damon (.323; foot) is doubtful.
OF Hideki Matsui (.323; knee) is doubtful.

PROJECTED SCORE: 6 (Side Play of the Day)

Pirates: The Pirates have had success with Zach Duke on the mound, going 6-4 over his last four starts, with three of those losses coming by a single run. Duke has been solid at home this year, going 4-2 with an ERA of 3.18 in eight starts. Duke received a no-decision his last time out against Toronto, although he pitched brilliantly, not allowing a run in seven innings of work. The UNDER is 3-1 in Duke's last four starts.

Pirates are 7-2 in their last 9 home games.
The OVER is 7-2 in Pittsburgh's last 9 games vs. AL East.

Key Injuries - OF Xavier Nady (.314; shoulder) is questionable.

PROJECTED SCORE: 4

Texas Rangers at Houston Astros [8:05 PM ET]

Rangers: Scott Feldman has been terrible for Texas this season. He has just one win his last 10 outings and the Rangers are just 2-8 overall during that time. In his last six appearances, Feldman has allowed four runs or more four times. Forget about betting Feldman on the road where he's 0-3 with a miserable 7.33 ERA in four starts. Feldman actually had one of his best performances of the season his last time out versus Atlanta, giving up just two runs over seven innings in a 5-4 Rangers win.

The UNDER is 8-2 in Feldman's last 10 starts.
The UNDER is 6-2 in the last 8 meetings at Houston.

Key Injuries - OF Josh Hamilton (.312; knee) is questionable.
OF Milton Bradley (.330; quad) is doubtful.
C Gerald Laird (.306; hamstring) is on the 15-day DL.

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

Astros (-140, O/U 9.5): The question going around Houston is what in the heck is wrong with Roy Oswalt? The Astros ace is a disappointing 6-7 with an ERA of 4.84 in 2008. There is some good news for Astros backers, however. Oswalt has pitched some of his best baseball this season in two of his last three outings. Take out a terrible performance against the Yankees and Oswalt has allowed just three runs in wins over Milwaukee and Tampa. The UNDER has cashed four of the last five times Oswalt has taken the hill.

Astros are 3-7 in their last 10 interleague games.
The OVER is 8-3 in Houston's last 11 interleague home games.
