MLB YTD: 90-66 (+75.24 units)
Yesterday: 3-0 (+10.21 units)
Boston Red Sox (-138) over LA Dodgers (4.14 units to win 3)
The Red Sox will have the momentum of last night's walk off win. They are the best home team in the Majors, 21-11. The offense avg'es around 6 runs per game and have a batting avg. of .290 @ Home. Its a nice, warm day today...so Wakefield's knuckler should have some good movement.
Jeff Weaver has been very strong in his last 3 starts, but we all know the problems he had with the American League teams while playing for the Yanks. He can be a head case at times, and there is a good shot he goesback to his old ways.
WEAVER is 2-4 when starting against BOSTON with an ERA of 6.00 and a WHIP of 1.533.
Even though the Sox had problems scoring last night, their offense has been solid. Mark Bellhorn has a career-high 10-game hitting streak, during which he's hitting .366. Ortiz is catching fire again, with seven hits in his last nine at-bats. Rookie third baseman Kevin Youkilis has reached base in 21 of his first 22 games, including the last 11 in a row. Manny and Damon have been solid throughout, and of course the return of NOMAH to the lineup.
I beleive they grab the win, today.
Good Luck fellas!
