The American League schedule for Friday has the Yankees at Baltimore, the Angels at Tampa Bay, Toronto at Boston, Oakland at Minnesota, Cleveland at Kansas City, Detroit at the White Sox, and Texas at Seattle. C.J. Wilson is expected to get the ball for the Rangers in that last contest, while the Mariners send Felix Hernandez (11-11, 2.39 ERA) to the mound. Lefthander Wilson is coming off a short outing against the Yankees in which he gave up four runs on six hits over just three innings of work. Righthander Hernandez lost to the Angels last time out, surrendering seven runs in his 6 1-3 innings.<\/p>\n

Over in the National League on Friday it\u2019s then Arizona at Pittsburgh, Washington at Philadelphia, the Cubs at Florida, Atlanta at the Mets, Cincinnati at Houston, San Diego at St. Louis, Milwaukee at San Francisco, and Colorado at the Dodgers. Ubaldo Jimenez (18-6, 2.75 ERA) is slated to pitch for the Rockies on Friday night, with Hiroki Kuroda (10-12, 3.32 ERA) taking the hill for Los Angeles. Righthander Jimenez was stuck with a no-decision against the Diamondbacks last time out despite giving up just one run on six hits over his six innings of work. Righthander Kuroda is also coming off a hard-luck no-decision, surrendering one run on four hits in six innings against Houston.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Matt Rivers, who was the winningest handicapper ever\u2014nobody came close\u2014on a large network of sites says Friday is on the Mariners in the first 5 innings at 5 Dimes<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

A little unconventional play here as this is a first five inning play on the home M\u2019s. Here is my logic and it\u2019s fairly simple, Felix Hernandez is amazing. Yup that\u2019s it, no rocket science, no crazy algorithms, that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n

Certainly Seattle\u2019s offense has been awful and the team overall is a complete disaster. Ichiro has not even been very good this season and what appeared to be a promising season that started with a pitching staff that had three studs in Hernandez, Cliff Lee and Erik Bedard turned into a dreadful underachieving piece of garbage. With that said though Hernandez has been the best pitcher in baseball over the past few months and that is including everybody. The last start wasn\u2019t good as King Felix allowed four earned but in the previous six starts the guy allowed a grand total of one earned run. Yes that\u2019s right in the previous 45 innings he allowed one run. I know mind-boggling.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t trust anything about this Seattle club\u00a0including their offense, bullpen and pretty much everything else, save Hernandez,\u00a0and the M\u2019s are up against a very tough lefty in CJ Wilson and a first place Texas club that is well superior. But the King is truly amazing and very possibly will not allow a run in the first five innings. Granted Wilson may not either but to not really lay anything with\u00a0Hernandez in this situation is well worth it. Think about it this guy has not allowed a run in five of his last seven starts.<\/p>\n

We could be looking at a 0-0 push after five and if\u00a0that is the case\u00a0then so be it. But to get the best pitcher in the game on his home mound in Seattle and not really lay anything is a must play, period.<\/p>\n

For more information: <\/strong>Yup, that\u2019s right I don\u2019t say the above lightly at all as I have a whopping four plays tonight including a monster raising of the bar 400,000* between Cal and Nevada. This is one of those swing days going into the weekend that can actually make or break the next\u00a0week plus\u00a0I\u2019m flat out loving today and will smack the heck out of that Crookie and do so with a vengeance.<\/p>\n

400,000* Cal-Nevada plus a trio of bonus 200,000*\u2019s including\u00a0the total from Nevada\u00a0plus Kansas-Southern Mississippi and\u00a0Milwaukee-San Francisco on the diamond. 4-0? Heck yes baby! Get all the sports service picks now.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
