Back to normal with the number of hot pitchers vs. cold pitchers as we have a total of 9 hot starters with ERA's under 2.50 in their last 3 starts combined and a total of 6 pitchers with ERA's over 6 over their last 3 starts combined. We are excited for tomorrow don't miss out on our
Clayton Kershaw +122 (1* FREE PLAY) It's a stiff test for the Dodgers and Clayton Kershaw going up against the NL West leading Giants and Tim Lincecum, but it's a test I think they are up for as Kershaw has pitched extremely well in San Francisco over his career and has been red hot with back to back shut outs. Kershaw in 8 starts in his career vs. the Giants has a 1.64 ERA. In his 3 career starts in San Franciso he's got a 0.79 ERA. The Giants have been well let's just put this honestly, pathetic at home with their offense. They have been worst vs. LHP managing a .236 average and just 2.61 runs per 9 vs. LHP. Dodgers meanwhile have .269 average and 4.28 runs per 9 vs. RHP on the road this year and have had some success vs. Lincecum of late.
Lincecum is a stud, but he's not having a Cy Young award winning year he's just 3-4 during his day starts with an ERA over 3 while Kershaw is 4-0 with a 2.30 ERA during day starts. In Lincecum's last 6 starts vs. the Dodgers he's given up 15 ER over 34 IP. Still very good, but going up against Kershaw he's going to have to be better. Expect another low scoring game but with +122 odds on Kershaw and the Giants struggles vs. LHP and Kershaw we could not help but play this game.

Cold starter with the best chance to win has got to be Andrew Miller. Despite his 2.12 WHIP and 7.90 ERA over his last 3 starts combined he's been very solid this year as he went 4-0 with a 3.57 ERA over his first 4 starts before struggling in his last start. I see him bouncing back here vs. Baltimore. He's also backed by an offense that is just flat out awesome during day games scoring more than 2 runs per day game than the Orioles. Miller also was solid in his lone day start giving up just 1 earned run in 6 innings. Red Sox are 22-8 in day games this year.
