saturday double banger # 962 pittsburgh pirates -120
a reasonable price in this spot for paul maholm...his last 2 starts have come on the road at 2 solid clubs in atlanta and cincy going 13 combined innings and giving up just 2 er...pretty solid stuff considering how those two lineups have been running...now he gets to come home and work vs a giants team not as potent...also a chance to bet against todd wellemeyer on the road...in this guy's 4 away starts this year he hasn't gotten past the 5th inning going a combined 17.1 innings and getting tagged for 18 runs...he has enjoyed the luxury of at&t park but nowhere else...fair price...# 962 PITTSBURGH PIRATES -120

what in the hell has trevor cahill done to warrant being a home underdog?...this line is atrocious...first off this is a team that is 18-10 at home...in cahill's last 4 outings he's gone 26 innings and allowed 6 er with 3 of those in one of the starts...at home he's been even better giving up 1 er so far in 2 starts as a majority of his work has come on the road...this is a bad price...# 980 OAKLAND ATHLETICS +110
