BIG AL MCMORDIE
Our 3 selections are the Dodgers, Brewers, and the Blue Jays.
Toronto -- At 7:05 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Blue Jays with Roy Halladay over the Angels. All the former Cy Young Winner does at home is win. This year he's 9-1, and he's also led the Blue Jays to 28 wins in his last 34 starts on artificial turf. The First Place Angels have been struggling away from Anaheim, as they've won just 9 of 22 games on the road. Take Toronto.
Brewers -- At 8:05 pm, our NL Central Game of the Month is on the Milwaukee Brewers over St. Louis. Even though Milwaukee has not played well of late, and even though Chris Capuano has not won any of his last 14 starts, we'll back Ned Yost's men tonight. Kip Wells has been awful in his three starts vs. Milwaukee this season (15 runs in 18 innings) while Capuano has been a little bit better than OK in his 2 starts vs. St Louis (4 runs in 9 1/3 innings). The Cards will feel the ill effect of not having 2B Adam Kennedy in the lineup, and Milwaukee is still the best home team in baseball. Take the Brewers.
Dodgers -- At 10:10 pm, our selection is on the LA Dodgers over Houston, as we will fade Astro starter Matt Albers, who has just 1 win against 5 losses in 9 starts, with an ERA over 6 runs per game. Houston is also 34-47 on the road vs. righties this year, and 2-9 on the road vs. NL West division teams. Brett Tomko threw 6 shutout innings in his last start vs. Houston, and LA is 87-54 (+23 games on the money line) vs. losing teams the past two years. Take LA.
