Seattle Mariners +120 over Baltimore Orioles:
Good matchup of young pitchers tonight at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Jason Vargas (2-0, 1.93 ERA) for the Mariners while Brad Bergesen (2-2, 4.64 goes for the Orioles).

Vargas has been a real find for Seattle, the young lefty has been terrific in his first few starts and appears to have a bright future.The M’s took 2 of 3 from the Orioles last week at Safeco.

The Orioles have hit the skids of late, losing 5 of 6 on their recent West Coast trip. Their offense has gone silent, which had been their strong suit up until last week. Brad Bergesen has done a nice job for them since his call up, but he’ll have to be on his game tonight going up against Vargas.

UNDER 9 Houston Astros / Chicago Cubs:
Decent pitching matchup tonight at Minute Maid between the Astros and Cubbies. Ted Lilly (6-4, 3.28 ERA) takes on Brian Moehler, who pitched his first complete game in 8 years last week in Pitsburgh.

Lilly has been great for the Cubs this year, and especially brilliant recently. He has allowed just 2 runs in his last 14 innings pitched, a no decision against Atlanta on June 3, and a win over the Dodgers on May 29.

Both offenses have been pretty weak this season, and much more was expected of the Cubs. Chicago finds themselves 3.5 games out in the NL Central, while the Astros are 7 back.

Brian Moehler is a great story. He’s come back from injury several times and as we mentioned earlier, threw a complete game on May 29 in a 6-1 win over Pittsburgh. Expect a low scoring game tonight in Houston.
