MLB: San Francisco Giants at New York Mets - Mets (Cain/Santana) -125
Game Date: 8/15/2009
Note: Before I get ton's of emails about playing the Mets, let me just go ahead and say, "Yes, I know, the Mets Suck." There ya go. Now there is no reason to email. The Giants are in the playoff hunt but they are not because of their road record, which currently stands at 23-33 after the loss last night to a team that sucks. These Mets Suck. And I know that. No emails please. SF has been very poor with hitting these guys that throw with their lefthand as well. They will positively be in their worst hitting posture facing Santana and the last time I checked, this guy that throws for the Mets, (The Team That Sucks) is pretty good. He was damn good in his last start and he has taken a large liking to Citi Field this year, going 8-2 with a 2.07 ERA in 12 starts, including a 3-0 mark and 1.86 ERA in his last four. Let me make this perfectly clear. Johan Santana does not suck. He has had success with these Giants and the visitors might just be in a bad way today as they have won just 7 times over the last 24 played against Southpaw starters. Heck, they even lost recently to Houston's Hampton and if there is a guy that is doing more sucking than him this year, I want to know. With last night's loss the Giants have lost to the Mets 4 of 5 this year and they have never played well against them. The Mets do not have much to play for anymore because they suck, but they do play harder when Santana is on the mound because they like to see the guy win. He does win a lot. I think the Home Team will suck it up today.

Take Cubs - 4-Dime POD
Cubs are a much better day team and it showed yesterday without Bradley and Ramirez in the lineup. Ramirez out of hte lineup with the flu might play today, but even if he doesn't I am confinced against the Pirates who struggle to put any kind of runs up as of late particularly against LH starters who they will face their old prospect Tom Gorzelanny who in his 2 starts looked great at Cincinnati 7.1 IP 3H 1ER and then dreadful @ Colorado 1.1 IP 6H 6ER.

He'll have a great chance going up against the Pirates who are not a good day team and have a .231 average 1.29 R/9 vs. LHP in their last 5 games with a bullpen of 8.13 over their last 10 does not look to me like they are ready for this challenge unless Duke goes deep into the game.

Duke has been solid on the season, and against the Cubs with 14IP 15H 3BB and 5ER this year, but it's the third time and the Cubs are hitting .341 in their career with Soriano leading with 15-33 and 2HR. Pirates are 4-22 in their last 26 road starts vs. team with a winning record.

3 Unit Play. #914 Take NY Mets –125 over San Francisco (Saturday 8/15 4:10 PM)

8 Unit Play. #928 Take Texas –115 over Boston (Saturday 8/15 8:05 PM)

(Game of the Year) Texas is coming off a horrible loss last night to the Red Sox so revenge will be on the minds of the Rangers tonight. Brad Penny will get the ball for Boston tonight and he has had some issues on the road this season, going 2-4 with a 5.73 ERA in 10 starts away from Fenway Park. If Penny struggles early this game could get out of hand quickly. Texas swept Boston in a three-game series at Rangers Ballpark earlier this year (July) and also took two of three games from the Red Sox at Fenway Park. Like I said earlier revenge is on the minds of the Rangers for blowing the game last night and if the Rangers want to hang around for the Wild Card they will need to win these big home games. Boston is 1-6 in their last 7 road games and the Rangers are 9-3 in their last 12 home games.

Drew Gordon
Today's Games... 1. 200,000? Orioles
2. 50,000? Bears

1. Orioles- Boy are a lot of average bettors going to get pissed in this contest... You see, I know full well on the surface this looks like an easy win for the Angels, with "surging" Lackey pitching against the struggling still wet-behind-the-ears lefty Matusz, but after digging a little deeper, you'll find tremendous value in the O's tonight and here's why:

First, it starts with the Orioles offensive explosion last night, scoring a whopping 16 runs on 19 hits, burying Angels stud Jered Weaver and their bullpen! Much like Weaver, Lackey is supposed to be a "lock" tonight, but let me be the one to warn you... This O's offense can and will stay hot tonight at home, where they avergae a hearty 5.4 runs per game against righties this season, batting .295 in the process! I'm warning you Angels-backers, Lackey is going to be tested early and often by a red-hot Orioles offense tonight.

Second, for as hot as Lackey has been, his numbers at Camden Yards are hardly impressive, going 3-3 with a beatable 4.14 ERA in 6 career starts there. Also, you cannot ignore the fact that Lackey threw 131 pitches in his last start, his most on the season by far... To expect another razor sharp outing after exhausting himself in his last start is a stretch at best (and a disaster for Angels-backers at worst).

Finally, there's Brian Matusz, who many are admittingly down on after allowing 5 runs in just 2 2/3 innings at Toronto in his last start. But before you go fading him, consider two things: A. Both of his starts this year have come in hostile territory, and he should benefit greatly from finally getting to pitch at home (as most rookie hurlers do). And B. Remember guys, this kid got drafted 4th overall in 2008. In other words, he's got the stuff, its just a matter of putting it together, and I believe he's going to come into this game more motivated than ever before. He was solid at the Tigers in his debut, and I believe the lefty will get back to attacking batters in this one. In the end, let's go grab that plus money with the O's, as they build off last night's explosion by downing another Angels righty Saturday night!

Take the Orioles behind Matusz over the LA Angels and Lackey as your top-rated play of the day.

2. Bears- Common sense tells us that a team playing their second preseason game is going to have an advantage over a team playing their first game of the entire season. However, that being said, this match up does not fall under that thinking, and here's why:

First and foremost, the trends do not favor the Bills in this spot. Did you know that Buffalo is 0-5 SUATS when favored over the L3 preseaons?! That trend right there should be sending up red flags to any informed bettor! Also, the Bills are just 1-6 ATS over their L7 preseason home games! Point is, based on past history, this is NOT a good spot for Buffalo, plain and simple.

Second, I like the Bears defensive rotation tremendously. All reports out of their camp is that their defense is stellar, with position battles happening all over the place (which is always good in a preseason game). Bills defense got shredded by the Titans (early on), and produced very little pressure throughout (just 1 sack). Not to mention, I expect the Bills troubles on 3rd down (3 of 11 in Hall of Fame Game) to once again be an issue against this Chicago stop unit.

Finally, there's public perception... The fact the public got to see the Bills in the Hall of Fame game, and are expecting a better performance in their second game of the preseason, only adds fuel to my argument. The guys in Vegas aren't stupid, and setting this number where its at, is a perfect trap for the average bettor. Note, neither QB rotation is particuarly scary (with the starters getting very little time), so this one comes down to defense, and the clear edge in talent and depth goes to Chicago, and that my friends is the difference in this one.

Take the Bears plus the points over the Bills in this NFL preseason match up.

Dave Cokin

Bucs at Titans
Pick: Under 35

The Titans already have a game under their belt, winning the Hall of Fame Game, 21-18, while this is the opener for a Tampa Bay team with new looks everywhere. The Bucs have a new coach in Raheem Morris. They have virtually no QB experience with rookie QB Josh Freeman, Josh Johnson, Byron Leftwich and Luke McCown. Talk about a shoddy rotation! Morris also said Luke McCown is slated to play 12 to 15 snaps as the starting quarterback in Nashville, with veteran Byron Leftwich receiving approximately the same amount of playing time. Rookie Josh Freeman and second-year pro Josh Johnson will each play in the second half against the Titans. WRs Antonio Bryant (knee), Michael Clayton (hamstring) and Kelly Campbell (quad) will be sidelined Saturday, along with center Jeff Faine (groin), linebacker Angelo Crowell (hamstring), kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) and punter Josh Bidwell (hip). Tampa Bay is 6-2 SU/ATS the last 2 years in preseason, but that was under Jon Gruden (and with better QBs). Tennessee (1-0 SU, 0-1-1 ATS) pulled out all the stops in the first half Sunday against the Bills, with a 21-6 halftime lead. Then they got sloppy in the second half behind QBs Vince Young and Alex Mortensen. Veteran QBs Kerry Collins and Patrick Ramsey looked sharp. QB Young will play about two quarters against the Buccaneers after Collins handles the first two or three series, Coach Jeff Fisher said. Patrick Ramsey, who was signed to battle Young, will also see action. Tennessee loves the power running game for outstanding coach Jeff Fisher, but they didn't impress in the opener with only 73 yards rushing (2.4 ypc). There is great depth with RBs LenDale White, Chris Johnson, Chris Henry, rookie JeVon Ringer and Rafael Little behind a good offensive line. Although Pro Bowl center Kevin Mawae, his surgically-repaired right elbow still on the mend, is still on the sideline. Fisher is 30-24 SU, 27-24-3 overall in preseason, including 16-9 SU/13-10-2 ATS the last six+ pre-seasons. The first-team Tennessee defense played great in the opener and faces a Tampa Bay team with below-average QB talent (and no established starter). I see a tough night for the TB offense, but also don't expect anything but a very conservative Titans game plan, so the Under is the play in this game.

Dodgers ML –120 for 3 units

I fell this is a good spot if any for the Dodgers to get back on track after losing 2 games in a row and getting dominated against with Haren on the hill yesterday. Davis has struggled against the Dodgers in his last 4 games he has struggled to go 5 innings going 1-3 with a 7.50 ERA. Kuroda will be starting for the Dodgers and he has had 5 quality starts in a row with the Dodgers going 5-0 in that stretch. With the Dodgers being 11-3 against Arizona their last 14 games overall and coming off a loss yesterday I see this as a good spot for a Dodgers team that needs a win.

2-0 in XNFL last night, 1-2 in Baseball last night

*200 Detroit Lions -3

Jim Schwartz and Matthew Stafford will be among those making their Lions debuts on Saturday night. I love this matchup tonight. We are getting 3.5 points with a team who has a new new head coach and a battle for the starting quarterback position.

Stafford is battling with incumbent Daunte Culpepper for starting quarterback duties, and the veteran is likely to get the first shot to show what he can do on Saturday. Both will likely play with the starters for some time. Stafford and Culpepper will play hard for us tonight. The Falcons, meanwhile, enter their preseason lid-lifter with more certainty on both sides of the ball following last year's surprising 11-5 campaign. The Falcons will be focusing on the defensive side of the ball and trying to cure some ailments there.

Starting QB and 2008 rookie of the year Matt Ryan is expected to play only briefly before yielding to backups Chris Redman, D.J. Shockley, and possibly rookie John Parker Wilson. Recent reports say that Wilson is dtruggling in practice and missing the mark in several areas.

Take the Lions and the points tonight, but don't get discouraged if we are down for 3 quarters. This will be a close game towards the end of the 4th.

I am taking the White Sox for another win today. I have found several nice trends in favor of a White Sox win. First, I have the White Sox as 19-8 SU since 2005 after a win in which they were tied at the end of 6 innings. I also, have the Athletics as 6-15 SU since 2004 at home after scoring 6+ runs loss.

DETROIT VS. ATLANTA

Atlanta enters this game coming off a season that surprised many, including myself, while the Lions – well we know what happened to them! The Falcons pretty much kept their unit in tact while making some moves in the offseason to try and firm up a defense that proved vulnerable at times. Meanwhile, Coach Schwartz makes his debut for Detroit along with highly touted QB Stafford. Making things interesting for Stafford is a Dante Culpepper who showed up to camp 30 pounds lighter and in terrific shape suggesting he wants a shot at the starting role. Schwartz has made it clear that nobody is safe and all must earn their starting spots. This creates urgency for all players and they should clearly be the more motivated team as a result. Additionally, in an attempt to reverse their fortunes from a year ago Schwartz has made it clear that this team is going show up and to play to win. It is worth noting the Falcons are just 2-4 in their L6 preseason road openers while the Lions are 5-1 in their L6 preseason home openers.

PREDICTION: DETROIT 20 ATLANTA 16

(DETROIT -3)



BUFFALO VS. CHICAGO

The Bills look to rebound at home off last week’s loss in the Hall of Fame opener. Edwards and the starting unit will be without the services of T.O. and are only expected to see limited action once again. Meanwhile, tonight is the debut of Bears QB Jay Cutler who was acquired from Denver in the controversial trade in April. The Bears believe they are a legitimate contender but need Cutler to build the chemistry with his starting unit and perhaps tonight they will give him a few more looks than normal for an opening game as a result. Dick Jauron remains on the hot seat but as he proved last week he simply lacks the talent and depth to be a contender. Jauron is just 1-9 SU and 0-10 ATS in his L10 at home. Meanwhile, the Bears are an impressive 8-2 in their L10 preseason road openers and 6-1 L7 under Coach Smith as a dog of 3 or more.

PREDICTION: BEARS 27 BUFFALO 13

(BEARS +3 AND OVER 32)



GREEN BAY VS. CLEVELAND

Dom Capers makes his debut tonight as the Packers new defensive coordinator. Capers will attempt to implement a 3-4 scheme to improve against the run. He is relying on the highly touted first round draft pick, Clay Matthews, out of USC to help make it happen. Meanwhile, Eric Mangini makes his debut as the Browns new head coach. Mangini will be taking a hard look at QBs Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson. Anderson had a stellar rookie campaign in 2007 only to suffer the classic sophomore jinx last year. This has opened the door up for Quinn and has created a very competitive campaign for the starting role. It is worth noting that Green Bay has really struggled during the preseason against AFC opponents going 3-9 SU and 4-8 ATS in their L12.

PREDICTION: CLEVELAND 23 GREEN BAY 20

(CLEVELAND +3 AND OVER 35)



KANSAS CITY VS. HOUSTON

QB Matt Cassel makes his debut tonight for the Chiefs. Although his playing time will be limited the question that remains is whether, or not, Cassel was as good as his numbers indicated last year when he filled in for the injured Tom Brady or if he is simply a product of a great system. The Chiefs also have a new head coach in Todd Haley and Haley is left with challenge of turning around a program that has gone 6-26 over the last 2 years. The Chiefs are relying heavily of Cassel but also made some key moves on defense when they acquired veteran linebacker Vrabel and rookie end Tyson Jackson out of LSU. Meanwhile, Houston kept their offensive unit in tact so should be effective. Defensively, they made some offseason moves to make the unit deeper and more consistent. The Texans enjoy a huge edge in their QB rotation and should be effective in moving the ball against a Chiefs defense that is still trying to find itself.

PREDICTION: HOUSTON 27 KANSAS CITY 10

(HOUSTON +2)


TENNESSEE VS. TAMPA BAY

Raheem Morris makes his head coaching debut for Tampa Bay and at just 33 years old is currently the youngest coach in the league. Morris wasted no time in the offseason beefing up his offense with the acquisitions of RB Derrick Ward and TE Winslow. One of Morris’ biggest challenges will be finding a QB that can get the job done. As a result, expect Luke McCown and Byron Leftwich to get a lot of reps and to give coach Morris a good look. Meanwhile, the Titans are coming off an impressive opening week win over the Bills in the Hall of Fame game. History has shown that when a team does well in a preseason game complacency may set in the next time out, therefore, creating opportunity or value in their opponent. With their first win under their belts is Tampa that will be the hungrier team. It is worth noting that Tampa Bay is a perfect 6-0 SU in their L6 preseason openers while Tennessee is just 1-3 SU and ATS in their L4 home preseason openers.

PREDICTION: TAMPA BAY 19 TENNESSEE 16

(TAMPA BAY +4.5)


SAN DIEGO VS. SEATTLE

Many have the Chargers already labels as the team to beat in the West. However, for the Chargers to have any chance they must stay healthy. Because health is a concern I don’t see coach Turner taking any chances with his key players. He will more than likely stick to a very strict preseason formula with a bigger focus on staying healthy than winning games. Meanwhile, Jim Mora makes his debut as the head coach for the Seahawks. Mora inherits a team that finished a disappointing 4-12 last year. Their lack of success was a direct result of the many injuries they suffered and, at times, was difficult to even field a defensive unit that could compete. The team appears healthy and should be the more motivated team to start the season off with a win. Seattle is 5-0 in their L5 preseason road games while the Chargers are just 2-5 in preseason home openers with Turner at the helm.

PREDICTION: SEATTLE 21 SAN DIEGO 17

(SEATTLE +3)
