2-0 Thursday, + 6 units. The RL and over bets covered but not until the 9th inning. Glad we all won. But… the Brewers are such hackers. Somehow Friedrich struck out 8 guys in 4 innings and also gave up 5 runs. Anyways, I hope I get to see Friedrich again.

Boston ML -106. 2 units. I can't see any other game better than this one. Workman returns from his suspension for trying to hit Longoria after David Price was NOT suspended for starting the whole thing. Workman though earned the respect of his teammates, served his suspension, and really is a very good young pitcher. I think his teammates will want to bash Vidal Nuno and the Yankees in support of him. Workman is coming off 2 excellent starts vs. Baltimore and Cleveland, and is mature and poised in his demeanor. Vidal Nuno has been the Yankees version of home run derby, giving up 13 HRs in just 39 innings. His home ERA is over 7, and if you take out his 2 West Coast starts vs. Seattle and the Angels(when they weren't hot), he has been gashed all year.
Both Boston and NY are aging teams that might have to rebuild, but believe it or not, they are still in the playoff hunt. The Red Sox have just faced some nasty pitching in Oakland and Seattle, and I have a feeling they are due for a minor resurgence. Their pitching looks improved. Nava and Holt are both hot, Pedroia and others should come around, and facing Nuno could be a good start. The Red Sox also have the definite bullpen edge.
