We get a nice line on Milwaukee tonight due to the fact that Gallardo hasn't been pitching well in his last few starts as well as the fact that the Brewers are coming off their worst offensive game of the year, managing a season-low three hits in Sunday’s 5-0 loss to Houston.
Milwaukee took three of four from Atlanta at Miller Park from April 4-7, as the Brewers limited the Braves to eight runs, a .200 batting average and five extra-base hits. Milwaukee’s mastery of Atlanta’s lineup was highlighted by Gallardo’s gem in the second game.
Gallardo threw a two-hitter in a 1-0 win April 5, improving to 3-0 with a 0.96 ERA in five career starts against Atlanta. Since shutting down the Braves, however, Gallardo has posted an 8.86 ERA in his last four starts, allowing 35 hits and eight walks over 21 1-3 innings. We'll look for him to get back on track tonight and out-duel Jurrjens. I'll take Milwaukee for 5 units out of 10 at +130.
The second game I like is for Boston to continue their dominance of the L.A. Angels.
A win tonight would make Jered Weaver the first pitcher in at least 93 years to win his first seven starts in a season twice in a career - a feat he first accomplished as a rookie in 2006.
Weaver has been especially sharp in his last two outings, throwing back-to-back complete games - including a seven-hitter with 10 strikeouts in a 5-0 win over Oakland last Monday. So why is he an underdog tonight? For starters, he's coming off a stomach virus that caused him to lose 9 pounds in the last few days. In addition, Weaver's ERA is 7.76 in five starts at Fenway, including one of his worst outings of 2010 on Aug. 17, when he allowed six runs in five innings of a 6-0 defeat.
Weaver will be opposed by Clay Buchholz who is still trying to get it together. He also had his start moved back because of illness though his was not nearly as serious as Weaver's.
The fact of the matter is that Boston owns the Angels and if they are basically even money at home vs. them we have to take Boston. Even in April, Boston didn’t have a problem with the Angels. Since getting swept in the 2009 AL division series, the Red Sox are 13-1 against Los Angeles. I'll take Boston tonight at -105 for 4 units out of 10.
