Change of arms!

Las Vegas - Staying at the Trop in Tampa for one more night and using the Rays with Nick Martinez over the Orioles. Martinez is 36 years old and in his 13th season in baseball (nine in MLB and four in Japan). And he must have found something because this is his best work ever. He is 12-3 with a 2.74 ERA and has won seven of his last eight. The other arm, Baltimore's Brandon Young, has a pretty impressive 9-3 record, but his last three starts have been kinda ugly. Young has allowed 17 hits and eight earned runs in 16 innings which works out to a 4.50 ERA. Loving Tampa's MLB BEST 41-20 record at home (not including yesterday) and expecting the Rays to shine on the Bank of Benj after yesterday's loss.

Just found out that the Rays are switching to Shane McClanahan and we're still buying.

Back on the MLB board for a look at a game tonight in the 'what have you done lately' category. The Twins (60-64) are hosting the Braves (73-50) tonight. Minnesota has won four of the last 10 and has gone Over four times and Under five times with one push. Atlanta has won five of the last 10 and has gone Over five times and Under five times.

These teams have not met this season (not including last night).
