At 7:05pm our complimentary selection is on the Chicago White Sox and Tampa Bay Rays 'under' the total. Tampa Bay #5 starter, righthander Jeff Niemann (better known as the placeholder for David Price) is a much better pitcher than he showed in his debut against the Orioles in Baltimore on April 11. The O's are hitting everyone very well right now, and actually despite a disastrous first inning, Niemann settled down nicely in that game and allowed just one more run in the following 4+ innings. Niemann showed a lot of strikeout numbers in the minors,fanning 151 batters in 164 innings at AAA Durham in 2007 and 2008 combined. He should be a serviceable replacement until phenom Price makes his much-anticipated appearance in the rotation later this year.
Niemann will no doubt look forward to the Chicago bats in this game compared to those that he saw in Baltimore as the Sox are batting .259 as a team vs. the red hot Orioles at .295.
Take the 'under'.
As always, good luck...Al McMordie.
