I've been a lurker and learned a lot lately so now I want to share my picks.
FYI: Great source for team totals especially vs RHP or LHP Home/Away as well as Monthly Trends

Blue Jays -115
TOR is almost avg 6 runs per game on the road...facing converted reliever Andriese who has a 4.50 ERA lifetime vs them in 3 appearances. Rays are only avg about 3.5 runs per gm scored in June so that should help the shaky Hutchinson a bit who gets the most run support of any P in the league. Even the jays dreadful bullpen can't blow this one...TOR 6-4...I guess OVER 8 isnt a bad play as well.
Cubs +157
Kershaw has given up as many hrs this yr already compared to all of last yr. Dodgers are one of the worst teams vs lefties and are 26th in runs scored on the road. Couple this with the fact that Cubs are 3rd in batting avg vs LHP make this one almost a lock. Really think Kershaw gets roughed up in this one...Cubs 5-3
Sleeper: Phillies +250...really can't go wrong with that line. PHI only avg about 3 runs on the road and NYY scores about 5.5 at home. The hope therefore is that PHI SP Correia who has only allowed 2 ER in 10.2 innings can pitch a great game. Philly already screwed everyone yesterday by beating a STL ace soundly with a minor leaguer so the possibility is already there. Being on the road makes it tougher but that line is hard to pass up.
GL all.
