The Oakland As starter tonight, Dana Eveland ( 3-2, 3.67 ERA) has won 2 consecutive starts here in McAfee Coliseum, having garnered a stingy 1.42 ERA , in those titls. He is a good bet to continue his current good fortunes , against a Baltimore Orioles team, that are hitting just .239 as a team, while in the visitors role this season. When and if Eveland falters, the southpaw hurler, will be backed with one of the strongest looking bullpens in baseball at the moment, as is evident by a 2.17 ERA and minuscule 0.81 WHIP in home tilts. Note: The Orioles have lost 18 of their 26 games here. Add one more loss to that list. Play on the Athletics - Courtesy of Alex Smart

Free MLB Betting Picks Toronto Blue Jays (-110)

There is the potential of a pitching duel when Dustin McGowan and the Toronto Blues Jays host Javier Vazquez and the Chicago White Sox tonight, but we will give the Jays the edge at this cheap home price.

McGowan is certainly due for some luck from the gambling gods, considering that he has five Quality Starts in six outings this season and he allowed just four earned runs in the other performance, yet he is just 1-2 and Toronto is 1-5 as a team in his starts! What makes that record even more incredible is the fact that the Toronto bullpen ranks fifth in the majors with a 2.96 ERA, so it is not as if the pen has been blowing leads for him.

Rather, the problem has been that the Blue Jays offense has only managed three runs or less in each of his six starts. As tough as Vazquez is, that could change tonight however. The Jays have taken the first three games of this four-game weekend wrap-around series, and they are showing signs of snapping out of their funk, pounding out 18 hits in the last two games.

It may not be easy, but look for Toronto to scrape up just enough runs to give McGowan a much-deserved victory.
