Im disregarding alot of spring training numbers and going with Under 8 (-108).
Looking at spring training numbers and 8 seems like an easy number to beat (neither pitcher shined and both clubs hits pretty well),however this isnt spring training anymore.Despite changes here and there I feel like the two teams remain about the same.When considering whos on the mound I like the 8 alot.CC is a stud IMO.Hes done well at US Cell (5-0 2.28era) in his career and has a few opening days under his belt (0-0 but 1.29 era 14ip/2 ers).Indians have some bats but I think they struggle tonight on the road vs Buerhle.Buerhle is a strong pitcher as we know.He eats up innings and pitches extremely well at home.He was 10-2 w/ 2.48 era/1.06 whip at home last year. He was the opening day pitcher as well going 8 innings and letting up no runs.Although his record lifetime vs the Tribe is 7-7 (4.17era) this Indian lineup tonight has no one in it that has batted over .300 vs him.The Sox also possess some strong arms in the BP...Cotts and Jenks are both solid.These two teams were 1 and 2 last year in the AL for team era.I like matchups where even if only 1 pitcher is on the bet still has a shot.
