Juuso Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Minnesota Twins @ Houston Astros Twins 1.9 (Mansion) 5 units Over 7.5 1.971 (Pinnacle) 2 units MIN: LHP Francisco Liriano (6-1, 2.16 ERA) HOU: RHP Roger Clemens (0-0, 0.00 ERA) This is basically a fade of Roger Clemens. He is making his first start of the season. While he was one of the best pitchers last season, he is not getting any younger and having a long break is the reason i believe he will not be very sharp tonight. Twins Fransisco Liriano on the other hand has been just excellent. He has got great stuff and can go deep into games. Twins bullpen is also very good, while Astros bullpen has been shaky this season and it's very possible Clemens will not go further than 5-6 innings today. Twins just won 8 straight before losing yesterdays game and with Liriano on the mound i think they have a great chance to bounce back right away. Throwing a couple of units also on the over as 7.5 total is very low in a hitter friendly park like this and Clemens' form is a big question mark.
