Toronto Blue Jays* -144 vs Baltimore Orioles 288/200
Baltimore Orioles/Toronto Blue Jays* Under 9½ -138 138/100 ...lets see if the O's can hit Dickie.Dickey (4-5, 4.50 ERA) 2-0, 3.20 in his last two starts. The right-hander has surrendered nine home runs this season, but he has stymied Baltimore's biggest bats in the past. Davis is 3 for 12 against the knuckleballer with four strikeouts, Hardy is 1 for 9 and Jones 1 for 9 with three strikeouts.
Boston Red Sox* -1 -134 vs Cleveland Indians 268/200... I was on the wrong side here yesterday, but I want let that happen today. Lester has always pitched well against the Cleveland Indians. More recently, he has come to excel at Fenway Park.Lester (6-1, 3.15 ERA),has been dominant at Progressive Field.Red Sox are 3-0 in Lester home starts (2-0, 1.66). He is 3-0 with a 1.04 ERA versus Cleveland since the 2011 season, striking out 33 in 26 innings. That includes a start on April 18, in which he surrendered two runs and four hits over seven innings of a 6-3 victory.He has also seemingly solved last season's woes at Fenway. In 2012, he posted a 6.31 ERA at home, as opponents hit .302 off of him. This season, he has recorded a 1.66 ERA in Boston, allowing 12 hits over 21 2-3 innings. In his last home start, he retired the first 17 hitters before ultimately finishing with a one-hitter in a 5-0 win over Toronto.Kazmir (2-2, 6.35), who has posted a 10.13 ERA over his last two starts.
Los Angeles Angels/Kansas City Royals* Over 9 -110 110/100 ... Guthrie is 0-2, 8.25 in his last couple starts. One-time Royal ('07) Buckner is making first start since 2010; he is 6-11, 6.25 in 21 career MLB starts. In 2013, he is 4-2, 4.56 in eight AAA starts (48 hits/47.1 IP).
