Our MLB POD is on the Mariners!

My source of 42 sportsbooks have 71% of the betting public backing kevin Slowey and his 8-1 record on the road here today. Slowey does have a 2.89 ERA on the road but he has only pitched 3 games on the road. The Twins are 7-17 on the road here this year and they are scoring just 2.10 runs per 9 innings in their last 5 vs. LHP. Sunday they will go up against one of the best in the bigs this year in Erik Bedard. More on Slowey, a year ago he had a 6.02 ERA day vs. 3.16 night, and 4.52 ERA road vs. 3.38 home. I'm not shocked to see the line favored for SEA grow despite the public being all over the Twins.

Bedard has been stellar at home posting a 1.85 ERA over 4 starts. During the day he has a 1.99 ERA vs. 2.79 night. I see him being able to shut down the Twins and their bullpen which has a .63ERA last 5 games to close it out.

Normally I like to play the run line in this situation, but given that the Mariners have won more than half (15 of 27) of their games by 1 run this year I will pass. Even though the Twins have lost only 6 of 29 games by 1 run.
