Last pick: Diamondbacks vs. Royals under 8.5 runs = WIN (5-3 final score)       Record: 8-3


Rays (Shields) vs. Astros (Rodriguez) UNDER 7 RUNS

James Shields has a spectacular 2.40 ERA for the season and that is slightly higher at 3.28 on the road. He has a 3.10 ERA in June and a 1.08 ERA in his last 3 starts. He has pitched 3 scoreless starts out of his last 10 and has allowed 3 runs or less in 9 of them. He has allowed 3 runs or less in 4 out of his last 5 road starts. His confidence level is high coming into Houston, with the Astros not scoring very many runs and the Rays having a strong bullpen. Wandy Rodriguez has a 2.88 ERA on the season, a 2.45 ERA at home and a 1.00 ERA in his last 3 starts. He has pitched 4 scoreless starts out of his last 10 and allowed 3 runs or less in 8 of them. Since he came off the disabled list, he has thrown 6 scoreless innings against the Dodgers and Braves. It looks like he is 100% healthy now and is able to pitch much better and more consistent than before. BET UNDER 7
