At 7:05 pm our complimentary selection is on the Seattle Mariners and Detroit Tigers ‘over’ the total. After having a very good start in his American League debut for the Mariners after being traded by the Pirates at the deadline, righthanded veteran Ian Snell has gone progressively downhill in his next two starts, both of which were at his home ballpark, known for being very friendly to pitchers. The last one against the Yankees was particularly ugly as Snell surrendered eight earned runs on nine hits in just six innings taking the loss at home. The most troubling thing about Snell this season is that, in the past three years, he’s had a strikeouts to walks ratio of around 2:1, but so far in 2009, Snell’s ratio is about 1:1 (61 Ks and 56 BBs) which are numbers that will make life very difficult for any Major League starter. Seattle looks to continue its run-scoring ways tonight after exploding for 10 runs on 15 hits against the Yankees on Sunday afternoon. Four of Verlander’s last five home starts have gone ‘over’ the total and a total of 52 runs have been scored in those five games. Take the ‘over.’ As always, good luck…Al McMordie.

Al McMordie CASHED his Revenge Game of the Month last night on the Florida Marlins — a 6-2 Winner over Houston — and tonight, Big Al looks to follow that up with his UNDERDOG ANNIHILATOR! It’s backed by a super 100% Winning Situation. Don’t miss it!
