CLEVELAND +1.08 over Chicago<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com

Excellent game and match-up to kick-off the 2006 season and it’s very likely that it’ll be these two battling it out in late September and early October. C.C. Sabathia goes for the Tribe and he remains one of the best and hardest throwing southpaws in the game. The opposition hit a measly .248 off Sabathia last year and in 196 innings of work he allowed just 19 bombs and 185 hits. He also struck out 161 batters and walked just 62. Last year, in April, he went 2-0 in three starts with an ERA of 0.92 in 21 innings of work and lasted into the seventh inning in all three starts. C.C. Sabathia is a great pitcher chucking for a championship contender and there will be few times this year that we’ll get a tag on this lefty. When we do you can pencil is in and we make no exception here. Play: Cleveland +1.08 (Risking 1.5 units).
