Bobby Maxwell

Cleveland (+165) at BOSTON

Call it the champagne hangover, but most teams who clinch a plaoyff spot and have a celebration in the locker room one night, doesn't usually bounce back too well the next day. We took the Twins the day after Tampa Bay clinched a spot and we'll play the Indians tonight after Boston celebrated last night.

Boston scored a 5-4 win on Tuesday to earn a spot in the postseason and I think the Red Sox realize they are probably too far behind the Rays to catch them in the A.L. East standings, trailing by 2 1/2 games with just five remaining.

The Red Sox have Paul Byrd (11-12, 4.53 ERA) going tonight and this guy struggles normally at home, even without the champagne hangover. Byrd is 0-1 in his last two starts with a 6.55 ERA and he is 1-2 with a 6.05 ERA in his last three starts at Fenway Park.

Fausto Carmona (8-7, 5.19) goes for the Tribe and he is 1-2 with a 5.00 ERA in one start and two relief appearances against the Red Sox. But tonight his stuff will look unhittable as Boston comes out sluggish.

Let's grab the plus money and play the Indians tonight.

3♦ CLEVELAND

JIMMY THE MOOSE

Game: Kansas City Royals at Detroit Tigers Sep 24 2008 7:05PM

Prediction: Kansas City Royals

Reason: The red hot Royals are 10-2 in their last 12 games. In their last 9 games vs. a team with a losing record the Royals are 9-0. KC is 9-4 in their last 13 games vs. a left-handed starter. The Royals are 7-2 in Bannisters last 9 road starts vs. a team with a losing record. In his last 20 starts overall vs. a team with a losing record the Royals are 14-6. Tigers are 7-20 in their last 27 overall. They are 3-9 in their last 12 home games vs. a team with a losing record. Detroit has lost 4 of Robertson's last 5 starts. In his last 28 starts vs. a team from the AL Central the Tigers are 8-20. KC has won 6 of their last 8 trips to Detroit. Play on the Royals +.

Jim Feist

(927) CHW White Sox
(928) MIN Twins
Take "(928) MIN Twins"
Big series here for these two teams as the AL Central is on the line. The prize is obvious, the winner goes to the playoffs and the loser is done for the year. White Sox are just 35-43 on the road this year while Minnesota is 49-26 at home. However it ends for the Twins they have to consider 2008 a success. With a big makeover in the offseason and entering as the eighth best team according to the Vegas oddsmakers, they have nothing to really lose here. Mark Buehrle starts for the Sox at 14-11 on the year with a 3.87 era. The 29-year lefty has seen his era rise since the All star break, but he's still had a very good year. The Twins have given him problems this year as he's just 1-2 with a 5.79 era against them. Nick Blackburn will start for the Twins. He's 10-10 with a 4.15 era. A team like the Twins isn't expected to do much and therefore they will play looser in this kind of game, while the Sox are expected to produce. We'll take our shot here today with Minnesota who has nothing to lose.

(923) NYY Yankees
(924) TOR Blue Jays
Take "(924) TOR Blue Jays"
The Yankees are now officially out of the playoff chase and they're facing a pitcher with major incentive tonight. Blue Jays righty Burnett has 18 wins. If he nabs the decision tonight, it's likely he'll get a chance to win #20 on the season's final day. The Yankees worked hard to get Mike Mussina his 19th last night, tonight it's Toronto's turn.

HONDO

Tonight, he'll return to the Lame Duck Dump for what looks like a Zambrano-brainer - 10 units on the Cubs over the Metamucils
