April 23rd Sports Wager of the Day!

Game: Tampa Bay Rays @ Seattle Mariners
Sport: MLB
Pick: Under 7.5

Reason for Pick:
A pitcher friendly umpire with two good pitchers bodes well for the under.

Felix Hernandez struggled in his last start but he is an extreemly talented pitcher with 20 strikeouts against only 6 walks in 19 innings of work so far this season.

Shields struggled out of the gate against top offensive clubs but his main problem was the long ball. With Seattle lacking consistent home run threats and in a pitchers ball park, with a pitchers ump, you must lean towards the under.


Game: Chicago White Sox @ Baltimore Orioles
Sport: MLB
Pick: Chicago White Sox, ML

Reason for Pick:
Bartolo colon pitched well in the spring and is 10-6 with a 3.31 ERA against Baltimore, including victories in two starts last year while with Boston.

Adam Eaton makes the start for Baltimore, more so by default as Baltimore has no one else. He gave up 6 runs in four innings in a loss to Boston on Saturday. Even the manager has little confidence in Eaton as after that debacle in Boston he was asked if Eaton would start again and he responded "until we come up with something else or someone else".

Eaton pitches to contact and with Chuck Meriweather, who is a hitter friendly ump, behind the plate, he's gonna get rocked hard tonight.
