NY Yankees (-108) [Pettitte over Garza] for 2 Units
NYY/TB 7:10: The Rays are having a bang up season but vulnerable here; after all, they've lost 4 of 6 this season to NY, including their last four. And the Yankees are 13-4 with Pettitte vs TB; moreover, Pettitte is 8-1 with a3.30 ERA @ TB. The Rays are currently batting just .204 in their last 10 vs lefties, and drive in a meager 3.5 rpg at home vs lefties. On the other hand, the NYY have hit well against righties recently (.310 last 10). We'll look for NY to get the best of Matt Garza who didn't look good in limited action at home (6 ER in 7 /23 IP), nor has he fared well against New York (6.75 ERA in 2 appearances). NY has been strong on Mondays (24-14 last 38) and should get it done here off a day of rest.
St. Louis (-105) [Wainwright over Bush] for 1 Unit
Cardinals/Brewers 8:05: We'll look for St. Louis to break out of their batting slump against a weak spot in the Brewers' rotation. Dave Bush, who's 9-26 vs division opponents, controls a 1-4 mark with a 6.98 ERA in five starts vs St. Louis. And the Brewers' lineup, which has driven in just 3.1 rpg on a .225 BA over their last 7
games, shouldn't give him enough run support; after all, they'll take on Adam Wainwright who controls a 2.58 ERA on the road and 2.36 ERA in 4 starts vs Milwaukee. Wainwright, who faced Milwaukee twice already this season, has given up just 1 run over his last 13 1/3 IP. And now that struggling closer - Isringhausen is benched, maybe the Cardinals can close some games out. The Cardinals are 11-4 off a loss and 4-0 on the
road in this price range. St. Louis the call.
