Larry Ness - Considering Zach Duke's road struggles for the Pirates, the Washington Nationals are the right play this evening when they host Pittsburgh in the second game of their series.

Tony George - Chien Ming Wang and the Yankees go for a 2-1 lead in their series with the White Sox tonight when New York and Chicago play ball on the Windy City's South Side.

LT Profits Sports Group - The Under is now 19-7-4 in all Oakland home games and 17-9-1 in all Boston road contests this year, so with these clubs having never faced tonight’s starters, go Under.

LT Profits Sports Group - Jason Schmidt makes his return tonight, and if he is anywhere near the form that earned him a Cy Young Award a couple of years ago, the Dodgers are a live dog in this spot.

Larry Cook - The Dodgers' bats will pick it up tonight and give Jason Schmidt some offense to work with as he returns from the DL to face Curt Young and the Padres in San Diego.

Alex Smart - Starter Chris Young and his bullpen give the Padres a solid edge tonight at home in San Diego in the opener of their series with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

John Ryan - Minnesota has an immediate chance at pay-back tonight following the Angels' 16-3 rout last night.  Take the Twins this evening on the road in Anaheim.

Jimmy the Moose - These two clubs are going in opposite directions at the moment.  And that makes the Arizona Diamondbacks an easy pick at home tonight versus the San Francisco Giants.

Jimmy Boyd - The Diamondbacks are hot and have a decided edge on the mound tonight.  Get behind Arizona at home when the San Francisco Giants pay a visit to the desert.

Marc Lawrence - He may not yet be a household name, but Cha Seung Baek has quietly been one of the most consistent pitchers in baseball this year, so lay the chalk with the Mariners.
