Friday’s Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking

Joel Pineiro (9-6, 3.96 ERA), Los Angeles Angels

This 31-year-old righty was 3-6 with a 5.16 ERA on June 2. Things have gone much better for Pineiro and Angels backers since. The Halos are 6-0 in Pineiro’s last six outings and he delivered quality starts in five of those six trips to the bump.

He sports a tidy 1.45 ERA since June 11 and he hasn’t been priced higher than -181 over the hot streak.

Cliff Lee (8-3, 2.34 ERA), Seattle Mariners

You can almost hear the faint sound of cha-ching with each pitch Lee throws. That’s because the price tag for the soon to be free agent is growing with every one of his masterful outings – and there’s been a lot of them lately.

The southpaw hurler was in line for his fourth straight complete game this season but was pulled for being too awesome.

“He gave us eight tough innings on a hot day, and that was enough,” M’s manager Don Wakamatsu told reporters after Lee did his part in an 8-1 win over Detroit. “If the score was different, or it was a little cooler, he would have completed that game.”

Lee allowed one run and struck out 11 batters compared to one batter but was attacked for his overload awesomeness.

"I was definitely not getting the same strike zone as [Lee] did, but I obviously didn't throw the ball well, so I'm not going to make excuses," Tigers starting pitcher Jeremy Bonderman, who was ejected for arguing ball and strikes, told reporters. "It gets in your head, but I'm not going to sit in here and say it was his fault I got beat, because it wasn't."

Not only is Lee using the force against opposing batters, he’s also using Jedi mind tricks to eff up rival hurlers. Now that’s the type of pitcher you wanna back.

By the way, Seattle is 8-1 in Lee’s last nine trips to the hill.

Slumping

Phil Hughes (10-2, 3.83 ERA), New York Yankees

The man starting opposite Lee hasn’t been enjoying the same type of success lately. Hughes got off to a remarkably hot start and was even the Yanks most consistent performer in the rotation for the first month and change of the season.

But batters are now catching up with the Georgia native and making him pay for his mistakes. Hughes has surrendered six homers in his last three starts and carries a bloated 7.03 ERA over his last four outings.

The Bronx Bombers are still 8-2 over his last 10 starts, so fading him might not be the best strategy, especially with the way Alex Rodriguez is hitting these days.

Wagering on the total seems like a better play. The over is 8-1 in Hughes’ last nine trips to the bump.

HOT LINES

Today's Best MLB Bets

San Francisco Giants at Washington Nationals (-145, 6.5)

What should a team do when facing the most lauded pitcher in baseball – K.I.S.S.

No, they shouldn’t get all lovey-dovey and start locking lips but instead – Keep It Simple Stupid. And that will be the Giants’ approach when facing Stephen Strasburg on Friday.

"You don't want to look into the hype and mentally defeat yourself before you get in the box," Travis Ishikawa said.

"Sometimes I try to be more patient. But with guys like him, who come with the fastball, I'm not going to think too much. Just let it go," added Andres Torres.

Strasburg has not received any run support from the offense over his last three starts. The hard-throwing righty is 0-2 in that stretch and the Nats have scored a total of five runs. All five of those runs came in his last outing but only after Strasburg had left the game.

San Francisco is coming off a three-game road sweep of the Brewers and isn’t intimidated by starting pitchers of deity status. The Jints have already defeated Roy Halladay and Ubaldo Jimenez this season as well as Roy Oswalt three times.

Pick: SF Giants


Pittsburgh Pirates at Milwaukee Brewers (-145, 9.5)

Brewers outfielder Corey Hart earned the second All-Star selection of his career behind a .285 average, 48 RBI and 12 home run first half in 2010.

But with Milwaukee 12 games back in the NL Central division, the club is shopping around Hart in hopes of trading he young outfielder for some starting pitching.

"I would be disappointed to be traded away from the Brewers, because this is the only team I know," said Hart. "I would like to stick it out here and help to turn things around, but I can't control what happens.”

The Brew Crew’s other All-Star outfielder, Ryan Braun, is slumping going into the break with zero hits in his last 17 at-bats. Manager Ken Macha gave Braun the day off Thursday but called on him to pinch-hit with the bases loaded in a key situation and the slugger grounded out to second base.

The Brewers have lost five in a row and eight of last their last 10 games. As bad as Pittsburgh has been on the road this year, it took two out of three games in Milwaukee earlier this season and has won three of the last four against the Brew Crew.

AFL NEWS AND NOTES
AFL On The NFL Network: Alabama At Orlando
By Scott Dooley


Alabama Vipers at Orlando Predators (-4, 104)

There are monumental postseason implications on the line in the Arena Football League Game of the Week. Neither the Alabama Vipers (6-6 SU, 5-7 ATS) nor the Orlando Predators (5-7, 7-5 ATS) can afford a loss in order to remain in the playoff picture.

Orlando trails Alabama by one game for the fourth and final playoff berth in the American Conference. The Vipers have earned a trip to the postseason three straight years while the Predators are in jeopardy of missing the playoffs for the first time since 1991.

"I hope everybody is pissed off and ready to play ball," Alabama defensive end Eric Scott said. "It's a must-win situation. If we go down there and lose, we won't make the playoffs. We better take care of business."

Calling All Replacements

Alabama has played musical chairs at the quarterback position this season. Starter Kevin Eakin has endured a variety of injuries and the most recent came one quarter into last week’s 62-47 loss to Jacksonville when he broke his left foot.

Eakin was replaced by former Texas Tech gunslinger Tim Hicks, who hadn’t played an arena football game since 2008. Hicks finished the night completing 22 of his 37 pass attempts for 288 yards and five touchdowns but it wasn’t exactly like riding a bike.

"I haven't been hit by anything but a 4 year old, 8 year old or 10 month old," said Hicks, who’s been a stay-at-home dad for the last two years.

The Vipers have struggled mightily since the first month of the season. After getting off to a 3-1 start, Bama is just 3-5 over its last eight games and much of that downfall can be attributed to inconsistency under center.

"Our cohesiveness, or lack of it, has been the main (problem)," Vipers center Lorenzo Breland said. "We've had to play a couple of games with a couple of different quarterbacks. That's been the biggest thing for us as an offense."

Over The Hill

While the Vipers are breaking in a new quarterback, Orlando is still trying to groom its rookie signal caller – 14 starts into the season.

Nick Hill remains a work in progress for head coach Pat O’Hara and is the primary reason the Preds rank second-to-last in the AFL in scoring (53.0 ppg). Hill tossed 12 interceptions over his first eight games and hasn’t had a mistake-free outing since May 15.

“Our quarterback has got to get a lot better. Not the offense, the quarterback,” Orlando defensive back Kenny McEntyre said three weeks ago. “One [person] can't hold up the show."

Hill is baby-stepping his way to proficiency, having only thrown four picks over his last four games. He put together a decent stat line in last Saturday’s overtime loss to Cleveland with 291 yards passing and seven touchdowns, but the offense is still struggling to find consistency in the red zone.

"We've been efficient getting down (inside the 10), it's just once we do, it's really small," Hill said. "Sometimes it's almost better to have more of the field to work with."

Not-So Special Teams

Alabama’s kicking unit has been a revolving door in 2010. The Vipers have trotted out four different placekickers this season and that group has collectively missed 11 PATs while going 2-for-6 on field goal attempts. Three of Alabama’s losses this year have come by three points or less.

Veteran booter Steve Azar is back with the Vipers after being released earlier in the year. Azar went 5-for-7 on PATs last week and has missed eight of his 13 extra point attempts this season.

With a higher crossbar and narrower uprights than in the NFL, extra points are routinely missed in the arena football game and those miscues can make a difference from a pointspread perspective.

Prior Engagement

These clubs met back in Week 7 and the Vipers were dropped, 48-31, as 10-point home favorites. Alabama was playing with a third-string quarterback in that game and only managed one second-half touchdown.

For the Predators, Hill had one of his best outings of the season after not throwing an interception, but the offense still posted a scant 5.2 yards per play. Three Alabama turnovers aided the victory for Orlando – the Preds ran 60 offensive plays compared to 39 from the Vipers.

CFL NEWS AND NOTES
Betting The CFL
By Bodog


It’s time once again for football betting fans to cast their eyes to the Canadian Football League, where the balls are indeed bigger. All eight teams will be in action over the weekend, starting Friday night in the town that gave us Anna Paquin.

Friday

Toronto Argonauts at Winnipeg Blue Bombers (8:00 p.m. ET)

Because we’re dealing with three-down football and a larger field, quarterbacks are even more important in the CFL than they are in the NFL. And the Blue Bombers (7-11 SU, 9-8 ATS last year) have what looks like a considerable upgrade at that position with Buck Pierce. The former New Mexico State QB racked up a 21-12-1 record in five years with the B.C. Lions, but they let him go after his 2009 campaign produced 10 touchdown throws and a dozen interceptions.

The question is whether Pierce can stay healthy. But for now, the results look good: Pierce led Winnipeg (+3 on the CFL odds) to a 49-29 victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Week 1. The Argonauts (3-15 SU, 6-11 ATS) hope they have their QB problems solved as well with NFL cast-off Cleo Lemon, but he was limited to 192 yards passing in Toronto’s 30-16 loss to the Calgary Stampeders (-13.5). The transition from the NFL to the CFL often takes time and isn’t always a smooth one – just ask Vince Ferragamo and Timm Rosenbach.

Saturday

Calgary Stampeders at Hamilton Tiger-Cats

Canadian football is also a haven for place-kickers, since the goalposts are still on the goal line, just like they were in the NFL up until 1974. Calgary (10-7 SU, 7-9 ATS) drafted Rob Maver fifth overall this year out of the University of Guelph, and he kicked five field goals against Toronto in his debut. Maver could be called upon frequently given the patchwork offensive line and the departure of co-ordinator George Cortez.

Maver is replacing Sandro DeAngelis, who bolted for Hamilton (9-9 SU, 12-5 ATS) after five successful seasons in Cowtown, including three All-Star nods and a Grey Cup in 2008. DeAngelis was a quiet 2-for-2 in his Ti-Cats debut, while QB Kevin Glenn was held to 197 yards passing. The score would have been even more lopsided if it hadn’t been for Hamilton kick returner Marcus Thigpen and his two TDs – the returner being another hallowed position in Canadian football. Better results are expected from Glenn and the Ti-Cats this year.

Saskatchewan Roughriders at British Columbia Lions

The Roughriders (10-7 SU, 8-8 ATS) lost the 2009 Grey Cup to the Montreal Alouettes because of a too-many-men penalty. The West Division is loaded with talent, but Saskatchewan is in a good position to build on last year’s success. And they started with a wild 54-51 overtime win over the Als (-3.5), who led 33-12 early in the third quarter. The key player for the Green Riders: QB Darian Durant, who threw five TD passes and no picks. Durant is in his second full season as Saskatchewan’s starter and improved tremendously over the course of the 2009 campaign.

This could be another mediocre year for the Lions (8-10 SU, 8-8 ATS). The offense looks good with the return of 2004 Most Outstanding Player Casey Printers as the starting quarterback, but the defense was bad last year and should get worse with the departure of DE Ricky Foley to the Seattle Seahawks. Foley led the league last year with 12 sacks. Yet the Lions (+4) were able to beat the Edmonton Eskimos 25-10 in their season opener on six field goals by 40-year-old kicker Paul McCallum.

Sunday

Sunday: Montreal Alouettes at Edmonton Eskimos

This is the second of three straight road games to start the season while Montreal (15-3 SU, 11-6 ATS) upgrades Molson Stadium, so a sluggish start can be expected. This is still the cream of the CFL crop and the 2-1 favorite to win another Grey Cup, led once again by three-time MOP Anthony Calvillo at quarterback. However, he is missing one important player in front of him: center Bryan Chiu, who announced his retirement at the start of training camp.

These are nervous times in Edmonton (9-9 SU, 6-12 ATS). The Eskies still have tons of star power at QB with Ricky Ray and Jason Maas, but the defense was poor last year under co-ordinator Jim Daley, so his job has been taken over by coach Richie Hall. He may be stretching himself too thinly in his second year as a CFL coach; Edmonton couldn’t stop B.C.’s Jamal Robertson from rushing for 168 yards on 11 carries in Week 1. Things could get ugly very quickly against the Als.

BETTOR'S TIPS AND NOTES
Bettor's Best Friend (BBF): Friday's Wagering Tips
By Covers Staff


Lines To Keep An Eye On

Marlins at Diamondbacks – The total for this game has dropped to 9 on most boards after opening at 9.5.
Orioles at Rangers – Texas opened as a -230 favorite but a few markets have moved that moneyline down to -215.
Alabama Vipers at Orlando Predators – The home team surfaced as 3-point favorites but that number has jumped to 6. The total in the game has also moved from an opener of 104 down to 101.5.

Weather Report

(Forecasts are extracted from Weather.com the night before the game.)

Orioles at Rangers – The forecast calls for a 60-70 percent chance of rain throughout the game.
Padres at Rockies – A 30 percent chance of rain is in the forecast

Who’s Hot

Houston has won four of its last five home games.
Ten of the Giants’ last 13 road games went over the total.
Winnipeg (CFL) is 4-1 ATS in its last five games versus Toronto.

Who’s Not

The Brewers have lost five in a row.
Anaheim has dropped six of its last seven games and is 3-7 over a 10-game stretch.
Alabama (AFL) is 0-3 ATS in its last three games.

Key Stat

47 – Number of home runs hit by MLB players on Wednesday, the over/under went 8-6-1. They say this is the year of the pitcher but hitters are starting to heat up, having blasted 42 bombs on Tuesday.

Injury That Shouldn’t Be Overlooked

Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano is day-to-day with an ailing back. He was not in New York’s lineup Wednesday or Thursday and the team may end up resting him through the All-Star break. The Yanks’ brass already informed Cano that he could not participate in the Home Run Derby. Cano is batting .337 with 16 home runs and 55 RBIs.

Game Of The Day

Alabama Vipers at Orlando Predators

Notable Quotable

“Honestly, [LeBron] would make the Timberwolves contenders. He only needs a couple players around him. Whether they mesh or not is out of my hands as an oddsmaker.

-- Director of race and sports operations at Wynn Las Vegas John Avello said of the LeBron James’ free agency saga.

Tips And Notes

- With the All-Star Break just around the corner, bettors really need to start monitoring lineups before placing a wager. Overnight betting lines are precarious at this point in the season because key players can be absent from a lineup card for no reason the next day. Pitching rotations are being shuffled around and search MLB news and you will see a handful big name hitting being rested on different teams every night. With the three-day break from Monday to Wednesday coming up, managers are parlaying off days with that to maximize recuperation time for their players heading into the second half of the 2010 campaign.

- Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach Paul LaPolice and offensive coordinator Jamie Barresi vowed to open up the offensive playbook this season. The Bombers had traditionally been a run-heavy offense in the past but installed a five-receiver system going into 2010. Tailback Fred Reid said the “offense has opened up now” where he is in motion out of the backfield a lot. Winnipeg throttled Hamilton, 49-29, in Week 1 while posting 502 yards of offense and the game easily sailed over the total of 50.5. The Bombers face Toronto on Friday with a total of 46.5.

- In case you hadn’t heard, Cliff Lee is being courted by just about every contending MLB team. And with every quality outing Lee puts together, the asking price for the southpaw elevates another million. Lee is well aware that he is being scouted during every start and is pitching like he’s in a final audition for American Idol. The lefty has won four straight starts and is 7-1 over his last eight outings. He has four complete games in his last six starts. Roy Oswalt, who is also on the trading block, tossed a complete game, one-hitter so these guys are definitely doling out their best stuff to land on a contender and get paid. Lee and the Mariners are priced at -110 at home versus the Yankees Friday.

The Florida Marlins and Arizona Diamondbacks square-off in the desert for Game 2 of their four-game weekend series. At the time of this writing, we do not know the outcome of the first game of the series. The Fish will send Ricky Nolasco to the bump with his 8-6 record and ERA of 4.69 including a record of 6-2 on the highway with an ERA of 4.31. Nolasco is 4-1 versus the Diamondbacks since 97 with an ERA of 3.53 and a WHIP of 0.925. The one loss came in the desert almost to the day a year ago when he faced tonight’s starter Dan Haren, losing 8 to 0 going 6 innings giving up 9 hits with one walk and eight strikeouts in the loss. Haren went 9 innings in that game giving up 4 hits one walk and 10 strikeouts. Diamondbacks starter Haren is 7-6 this season posting an ERA of 4.38 including a mark of 5-3 at home with the same ERA. Nolasco is 16-5 in road games versus teams averaging 2.75 or less extra base hits per game the last three seasons including 9-1 during the second half of the season. Nolasco is 6-1 his last 7 outings when starting Game 2 of a series, 13-3 his last sixteen road starts versus a team with a losing record and 10-4 versus the NL West. We look for Ricky Nolasco to bounce back against the Diamondbacks and avenge last season’s poor performance in the desert. Back the puppy here as the Marlins take the second contest of this weekend series.

No knock on Jon Lester, as Lester has been "bringing it" all year long for his club, the problem is his club is contending with far too many injuries right now, and they come to Toronto riding a 4-game losing streak.

Toronto just took the last pair off of visiting Minnesota, and they will now look to get their first home win in 4 tries this year against the Boston Red Sox tonight.

Ricky Romero was just rocked, but that start came on the road. At home Romero has been stellar, going 4-1 over 7 home starts, and keeping his ERA at just 1.45.

With so many of the Boston starters sidelined, the G-Man will take his chances with the home underdog to give his team a chance against the 10-3 Lester.

Take Toronto.

I'm coming strong with a FREE winner tonight on the Blue Jays at home to get it done against the Red Sox in Toronto.

Toronto got the home win on Thursday over the Twins and they are a great plus-money wager in this one as they welcome the Red Sox to Canada for a three-game set. Ricky Romero (6-5, 3.39 ERA) is on the mound for the Blue Jays, battling the Red Sox Jon Lester (10-3, 2.76 ERA).

Romero loves pitching at home, posting a 4-1 record and an amazing 1.45 ERA. He last pitched at home on June 23 when he blanked the Cardinals for eight innings. He’s held the opposition to two runs or less in seven of his last 10 outings and last time he saw the Red Sox was last September when he allowed two runs in five innings of an 8-7 road win.

Lester has been very good for the Red Sox this season, but he’s blown up a few times on the road the last few months, getting shelled in Cleveland and in Detroit.

Boston is just 3-8 in its last 11 roadies, 0-4 against A.L. East teams, 1-4 against southpaws and 2-5 when Lester is a road favorite. Toronto has won four of Romero’s last five home starts and 8-3 in their last 11 Friday games.

The Red Sox have won six straight in Toronto and eight of the last 10, but this Toronto team is scoring runs and they’ll get the job done here tonight. Play the plus-money and go with the Blue Jays.
4? TORONTO

I scored the free winner for you on Thursday as the Blue Jays took care of the Twins in Toronto. Tonight I am playing the Mets to get Game 1 of their series against the Braves in New York.

New York is the winning play here tonight as R.A. Dickey has been a helluva pitcher for them this season. Since joining the starting lineup, he’s held the opposition to three runs or less in seven of his nine starts.

In his last home outing, Dickey blanked the Tigers on four hits over eight innings of a 5-0 win. He also didn’t give up an earned run on Saturday in Washington and got a no-decision in the 6-5 loss.

Tommy Hanson starts for the Braves and he’s got a 9.00 ERA in his last three starts. In his last roadie, Hanson gave up nine runs on 13 hits of a 9-6 loss to the White Sox, lasting just 3.2 innings.

New York has been rolling lately, on streaks of 25-9 at home, 8-1 after an off-day, 5-0 on Friday and 13-3 after a loss. I’m playing the Mets tonight to get it done with Dickey on the mound.

3? N.Y. METS (on a 1? to 5?)

JOEL TYSON COMP

4-1-1 comp play run coming into Friday's action.

The hype surrounding Stephen Strasburg has cooled just a little, as Strasburg can't seem to get any support on offense, and it is only a matter of time before the opposing team gets to the Nats bullpen.

In to town rolls the Giants who have won 4 in a row, and 5 of their last 6.

Matt Cain is definitely capable of working deep into a game, and the Giants 13-3 mark against the Nationals their last 16 meetings definitely bodes well.

Cain is also 3-0 the last 4 times he has faced Washington.

Take the Giants here.

Cincinnati Reds at Philadelphia Phillies
Prediction: Cincinnati Reds

The Reds and Phillies meet in Game Two of this four-games series in Philadelphia this evening when Mike Leake takes the mound for Cincinnati against Joe Blanton. While Leake's numbers have fallen off since he took the league by storm this season, the fact of the matter is he is 4-2 in his road team starts, including 3-0 his last three with a 1.89 ERA. With Blanton having cashed in just three of his last eight team starts with a 6.96 ERA, look for the Reds to keep the Phillies in their funk here tonight. We recommend a 1-unit play on Cincinnati.

SEAN MURPHY Comp

San Francisco Giants @ Washington Nationals
PICK: Washington Nationals

The San Francisco Giants just finished a masterpiece of a series, sweeping the Milwaukee Brewers in a four-game set, outscoring them by an incredible 36-7 margin.

So does that mean they boast solid underdog value as they head to Washington on Friday? I don't believe so.

The Nationals were soundly beaten, 7-1 at the hands of the San Diego Padres on Thursday, but that shouldn't come as any surprise. After all, they were up against one of the hottest pitchers in baseball in Mat Latos, and had already won the first two games of the series, with both coming by one-run margins.

I do expect the Nationals to get back on track behind their rookie phenom, Stephen Strasburg, on Friday night. Let's not lose sight of the fact that the Nationals remain a winning team at home this season while the Giants are a losing club on the road.

Matt Cain will offer a formidable challenge to the Nats' lineup on Friday. He's having another fine season, recording a 2.98 ERA and 1.16 WHIP, but his record leaves a lot to be desired, just 6-7 on the year.

The key here is that Cain doesn't bring his best form to the table. Over his last three starts, he has allowed 22 hits and 14 earned runs in just 14 2/3 innings of work. His walk totals have been on the rise over the course of those three outings, and he's also had a tough time keeping the ball down. Note that his ground ball to fly ball ratio stands at 35:113 since the start of June.

Cain has held the current Nationals roster to .253 hitting in 91 career at-bats against him, but I will point out that Ryan Zimmerman, Nyjer Morgan, and Cristian Guzman are a combined 14-for-39 (.359) against him.

As I mentioned, the Nats' will counter with Stephen Strasburg. He's coming off back-to-back subpar starts, but I'm confident we'll see him bounce back on Friday. It's worth noting that the Nationals still managed to win his last start, despite the fact that he lasted only five innings.

Strasburg has settled in nicely here at Nationals Park, posting a 2.16 ERA while holding opponents to a .221 average in four starts, spanning 25 innings of work. A key against the Giants could be his .176 opponents average versus right-handed hitters.

The Nats' held their own against the Giants in San Francisco back in late May. They ultimately dropped two of three games, but the Giants needed a late rally to secure a victory in the rubber match.

The Giants are fresh off a four-game sweep of the Brewers, but it's easy to forget that they were 5-13 over their last 18 games heading into that series. The Nationals are 11-6 in Game 1 of a series after a loss this season, and I expect them to improve on that record on Friday. Take Washington.

(967) Boston Red Sox -$130



The Blue Jays starting pitcher Ricky Romero got off to a great start this season, but I don't like the way he is pitching right now. Romero is 0-2 in his last three starts and has an ERA of 5.09 in that span. Romero is also coming off of his worst start of the season and his confidence has to be the lowest it has been all season. Romero roughed up in New York on Sunday as he lasted just 2 2/3 innings and allowed eight runs in an 11 run third inning for the Yankees. Today he faces a Red Sox lineup that he has struggled against in the past. In five career starts against Boston, Romero is only 1-3 with an ERA of 7.66 and I can see him taking another beating here. The Red Sox send All Star Jon Lester to the mound for this game. Lester is 10-3 this season with an ERA of 2.76 and over his last three starts Lesters ERA is only 1.23. Lester has already pitched seven innings of one hit ball against the Blue Jays this season and I expect another solid performance from him in this game. The Red Sox have won six straight games in Toronto and I expect that to continue. Play on Boston.

Take 967 Boston at Toronto (7 pm ET) Neither of these teams are playing great right now, so this one comes down to one big factor - the pitching matchup. Jon Lester starts for the Red Sox. He has been very good all year, and extremely good in his last three games. He's efficient and ruthlessly effective right now, and he has enjoyed success against Toronto both this year and in the past. Ricky Romero gets the nod for Toronto. He's a pitcher I really like, but he's coming off a disaster of an outing in which he allowed eight runs in less than three innings, and his control had been off in the game before that. We can be reasonably sure that Lester will be in good form, but less sure that Lester will be. That makes the Red Sox a nice pick.

LAD -145: Two teams headed in opposite direction as we head into the all star break. The Cubs are looking forward to the vacation as they really don't like each other and it has shown. The Dodgers on the other hand are trying to overtake SD and the 7-3 run has helped. Today the Dodgers turn to their most reliable pitcher Billingsley. He has not received many victories but has been consistent averaging 6 innings and about 2.5 runs. That will be plenty as the LAD lineup has been hitting very well. Lily goes for Cubs and his 2-4 record in L10 starts with 4.02 ERA has not been good enough lately. In fact he gets the worst run support of any starter this year. Sounds like easy LAD winner as the Dodgers continue their hot hitting.

3rd pick: #1 (Il Senatore) - Tries hard every time and has good tactical speed and the inside post to use it from. Gelding by "Harlan's Holiday" should be in this from start-to-finish.

INSIDER ANGLES

Now we realize that the Arizona Diamondbacks have the best Over record in the Major Leagues, but that is primarily due to their terrible bullpen, which may not be a factor on Friday night. Meanwhile, Ricky Nolasco of the Florida Marlins appears poised to make another second half surge just like last season.

The reason the Arizona pen may catch a break here is because Dan Haren is making this start, and he has gone at least seven innings in four of his last five starts, with all four of those elongated outings being Quality Starts. In fact, Haren has allowed three earned runs or less in six of his last seven outings, so it appears he has straightened himself out after an uncharacteristically slow start to this season.

Keep in mind also that Haren has been brilliant in his last two starts vs. Florida, not allowing a single earned run while allowing only nine hits and recording 17 strikeouts against only three walks in 16 innings of work. This includes a Complete Game four-hit shutout vs. the Fish last year.

As for Nolasco, remember that he turned into the Florida ace over the second half of last season, and this year is shaping up to be a carbon copy. Like Haren, Nolasco also got off to a slow start, but he has now won each of his last three starts while allowing a scant 20 baserunners in 21 innings.

Going back further, Nolasco has allowed three earned runs or less in six of his last eight starts, and his last start vs. the Braves may have been his best yet, as he allowed two runs on six hits in seven innings with 11 strikeouts.

In short, these are two quality starters that appear to be at their season’s peak right now, and the end result should be a low scoring affair.

double-dime bet 964 ARI (-135) Bodog vs 963 FLA
Analysis: Much has been made of Nolasco winning 3 straight ballgames, but bottom line, he has given up 20 HRS his season in 17 starts. In fact, that exceeds his BB total of 19. At the launching pad that is Chase Field and its associated favorable BsR numbers for the Dbacks, that will spell trouble for Nolasco. Haren is coming off a 7IP, 1ER, 6H outing v LAD in which 82 of his 117 pitches were strikes. He has a 2.86ERA in 4 career appearances v Fla. Advanced stats back us up, as well. Nolasco has a 4.51FIP and 3.82xFIP w a .317BABIP. Haren has a 3.83FIP and 3.45xFIP (9th best in MLB) w a .340BABIP (8th unluckiest in MLB). Put that in the wash and we become even more confident that Haren is that much more poised for a quality outing. Let's jump right back on the 2* freight train with the Dbacks tonight.

dime bet 975 KAN / 976 CWS Under 9 BetUS
Analysis:


UNDER 9 KC / Chicago WS

With Chen on the Hill for KC, and Buehrle for the White Sox, both in excellent form and both backed by bullpens with less than a 3 ERA their last 10, not to mention a rivalry type division game, you have a tight one on deck tonight. 4 out of the last 65 in this series have gone under, and these two southpaws tonight rarely put runners on bases. Chen has been on fire as of late, a 0.87 WHIP his last 3, and KC is red hot winning 10 out of 13, and winning a series 2 weeks ago I attended in KC against Chicago. The opening game of series like this, in this type of pitching scenario, usually warrants and under look and although KC bats are hot, I think on the road in their 3rd straight series on the road, they weaken against a good home pitcher tonight and KC also keeps the bats at bay for the WS.

Play 1 Unit on the UNDER. KC also worth a look as a dog here of +135 for a small play as well.

dime bet 958 HOU (+175) Bodog vs 957 STL
Analysis: Very likely will not be a very popular selection but then the vast majority of my Rabid Dog releases tend to make clients gulp. Guys the value here clearly sides with the Astros. The Cardinals are stumbling badly toward the All Star break and just got humiliated out in Denver by the Rockies. They lost again yesterday with their big man Cris Carpenter getting out pitched by Ubaldo Jiminez. I know many will look for the Cards to rebound strongly tonight against the lowly Astros and Bud Norris. I personally feel there is a very good chance that just does not happen. Fact is Norris has always given the Cards fits and is 4-0 with a sick 0.35 era against them in four career starts. Adam Wainright has also enjoyed success against Houston but this season he has been two different pitchers, great at home in Busch stadium and shaky on the road. This Houston club is 7-2 against St Louis the last 9 played at Minute Maid park. Thus far this season the Astros have prevailed in 4 of 6 games against them, all in St Louis and swept them straight up in an earlier season.
Perhaps it all comes together for St Louis and they exact some revenge on Houston but past history simply does not support that case. Trying to gamble and predict when a slumping club will wake up is playing roulette and I follow the Cardinals closely. Right now the machine is in dire need of a few days in the shop and a tune up. At this price I cannot help but feel Norris and the Astros with their past history are the correct play. This is no Triple Star but worthy of the Rabid Dog Label and I've been correct far more often than not on these

double-dime bet 970 DET (-130) Sportbet vs 969 MIN
Analysis: My 10* Division Game of the Month is on the Det Tigers at 7:05 ET.
The Tigers lost THREE of their final four regular season games last year, ending in a tie for the AL Central title with the Twins. They then blew a 3-0 lead in a one-game playoff, losing 6-5 in Minnesota (12 innings). The Tigers have lost SIX of their nine meetings with the Twins this season but based on "current form," sure have to like their chances to win this three-game series this weekend. The Tigers are wrapping up a nine-game homestand this weekend, and are already 5-1 which ups their home mark in 2010 to an AL-best 30-12 (.714). Only the Braves (30-10) own a better home record but the Tigers lead MLB in money won at home, going plus-$1,589 vs the moneyline. The Twins, who led the division by 4 1/2 games less than a month ago, have lost 11 of 16 and now find themselves behind both the Tigers (two games) and White Sox (half-game) in the division they've won FIVE times since 2002. More bad news comes in the fact that Justin Morneau (.345, 18 HRs, 56 RBI) may not play. He sat out Thursday's 8-1 loss to Toronto because of a mild concussion after he was accidentally kneed in the head the previous night. "He wasn’t feeling very good. We’ll see how he does (Friday),” manager Ron Gardenhire told the Twins’ official website. “We’ll give him a day and then we’ll (aim) for (Friday). I can’t go any deeper than that.” The starting pitchers will be Francisco Liriano and Justin Verlander. Verlander got off to an awful start in 2010 (6.95 ERA in his first four starts, although the team won THREE of those four games) but he's posted a 3.07 ERA over his last 13 games, including a 1.81 ERA in his seven home starts in that span. Verlander 'EXPLODED' on the scene as a rookie in 2006 and had another excellent season in 2007 (team was a combined 41-21 in his starts those two years). He then suffered through a very poor 2008 season, going 11-17 (4.84 ERA), as the Tigers went 13-20 in his starts. His moneyline of minus-$1,351 was the WORST of any MLB starter tha~t year. However, he was back in fine form in 2009, going 19-9 (3.45 ERA), as the Tigers went 23-12 in his starts. Same this year, as he's 10-5 (3.85 ERA) in 17 starts (team is 12-5). Liriano knows a little about having a big rookie season, as he also was a star in 2006. He went 12-3 with a 2.16 ERA but arm troubles forced him to miss all of 2007. He then made just 14 appearances in 2008 (6-4, 3.91 ERA) before struggling for most of 2009 (5-13, 5.80 ERA / team was 9-15). He began this year healthy, opening 4-0 with a 1.50 ERA in five starts (team was 5-0). However, he's just 2-6 over his last 11 starts (team is 3-8), going 0-3 with a 4.68 ERA in his last four (team is 0-4). Both the Twins and Liriano are slumping, while the Tigers look to finish a strong first half of the season in style. All Detroit, tonight!

Good luck...Larry

Lenny Del Genio | MLB Money Line Fri, 07/09/10 - 7:05 PM

double-dime bet 952 WAS (-130) Bodog vs 951 SFG
Analysis:
Play on Washington at 7:05 EST – Washington sends out ace rookie Strasburg tonight to take on the hot Giants. SF wasn’t playing very good baseball, that was until they went to Milwaukee and swept the Brewers winning four straight games. They did it with good pitching as the Giants allowed the Brewers to score only seven runs in the four ga~mes. However, we look for the winning streak to get snapped tonight as the Giants send Cain to the hill. The SF righty has struggled mightily in his last three starts posting a 8.59 ERA. On the road this season he has a 3.30 ERA and a 3-6 team start record. Cain is not a good pitcher to have out there when the Giants are on a winning streak as he has a 2-10 TSR when SF is on a 3 or more game winning streak. Strasburg has been as good as advertised so far posting a 2.45 ERA and striking out 53 hitters in only 36 2/3 innings pitched. With the day off this week for the Nationals, Strasburg starts tonight with an extra days rest, and he should come out firing tonight. SF got fat on some weak pitching in Milwaukee, not the case tonight in Washington. Strasburg gets an easy win tonight. 20* Play on Washington.

Complimentary Picks and Analysis
Game: Boston at Toronto (7:05 PM Eastern)
Pick: Toronto +120 (moneyline)
The Sox have eleven players on the DL including Pedrois, Ellsbury, Martinez and Varitek. Who would have thought Darnell McDonald, Daniel Nava and Kevin Cash would be seeing regular playing time for Boston? The result is not unexpected as the Sox have lost four in a row including an embarrassing home loss to the Orioles. Jon Lester gives them some hope tonight as he is 10-3 with a 2.76 ERA. But, Toronto starts Ricky Romero who has been no slouch. At home he is 4-1 with a 1.45 ERA. And, Boston's bullpen has been horrendous on the road this season (4-9 with a 5.85 ERA with just 56% saves). The Red Sox have not fared well in division games this year where they are under .500.
I like the Blue Jays at home here.

Scott Rickenbach’s MLB 10* (TOP PLAY) OVER in Colorado vs San Diego @ 9:10 ET: De La Rosa vs Correia – RATING SYSTEM: Plays range from 6* on up to 10* so this includes 7* and 8* picks as well. 6*, 7*, 8*: most common play ratings with a 9* being a Top Play! 10* plays are a step above a 9* Top Play. The *10* is Scott's highest rated selection!


Jorge De La Rosa is back from injury for the Rockies but he shouldn’t be expected to immediately resume in top form. For one thing, the southpaw had a rocky April with the Rockies before being put on the disabled list. For another thing, De La Rosa’s rehab outings in the minors (leading up to this start) saw him go 1-2 with a 5.52 ERA. The southpaw has just one win in seven career starts against the Padres and he’s compiled a 5.30 ERA in his career against San Diego. Though the Padres certainly aren’t known as an offensive juggernaut, note that they are coming off of a three game set where they averaged six runs per game against the Nationals. The Padres pounded out 37 hits in the three games and that gives their lineup plenty of confidence as they head to hitter-friendly Coors Field for this three game set with a division rival. The Padres will need all the offense they can get because we do expect Kevin Correia to get absolutely walloped in this outing.

The Padres Correia is facing a Rockies team that is 8-2 in their last 10 games and that has averaged 6.8 runs per game during their hot streak. Note that Correia has a 5.05 ERA on the season and he’s particularly struggled over the last two months. Yes, Correia was 4-1 in April but he’s had just one win since then! Also, before shutting down the weak-hitting Astros in his most recent start, the Padres right-hander had allowed at least four earned runs in six of his last nine starts! This included getting clobbered by Colorado in a late June start against them. Correia compiled a 5.22 ERA in May and a 7.83 ERA in June. One good start against a weak-hitting Houston team hasn’t changed our mind about the direction that Correia is heading in. Also, he has a 4.53 ERA in pitcher friendly Petco Park in San Diego this season but he’s compiled a 6.07 ERA in his road outings this season. The Rockies have been pounding the ball and are on a 9-2 run to the over. The Padres also have been hitting better than usual and they are currently on a 7-3 run to the over. The Rockies are 2-0 to the over in De La Rosa’s last two starts. The Padres are 4-1 to the over in Correia’s last five road starts! Play OVER the total in Colorado as a *10* Top Play selection.





Scott Rickenbach’s MLB 8* (Regular Play) OVER in Philadelphia vs Cincinnati @ 7:05 ET: Blanton vs Leake – RATING SYSTEM: Plays range from 6* on up to 10* so this includes 7* and 8* picks as well. 6*, 7*, 8*: most common play ratings with a 9* being a Top Play! 10* plays are a step above a 9* Top Play. The *10* is Scott's highest rated selection!


The Phillies just saw Mike Leake on June 29th and they hammered him for six earned runs in six innings. Leake is 6-1 on the season with a 3.38 ERA but his current form is definitely heading the wrong direction and that’s what keys the value with a selection like this. While he shows a 3.38 ERA in the books, take a look at what the Reds right-hander has done in his last five starts! Leake has allowed 20 earned runs on 40 hits and 14 walks in 28.1 innings of work. That equates to an average of nearly two base runners per inning and when you factor in that he’s allowed 7 homers in these 5 starts, you can see why Leake’s ERA has been on a sharp rise recently. A start at hitter-friendly Citizens Bank Park is unlikely to do any favors for Leake. Even though the Phillies are still battling through injuries, they have averaged 5.3 runs per game in their last half dozen games and we look for them to pound Leake and a subpar Reds bullpen.

The Phillies bullpen hasn’t been much better than the Reds pen this season and both pens got some extra work last night as the result of a game that went 12 innings. With Joe Blanton on the mound, the Phillies bullpen could once again be called upon for extra work tonight and that’s great news for our over. Even though Blanton has been pitching a little better recently, he’s still having trouble avoiding the big hits and big innings. Blanton has allowed 13 homers in his last 10 starts. He has a 6.27 ERA on the season. The Phillies right-hander got hit at a .341 clip in his five June starts and then he started July by allowing one of the NL’s weakest offenses, the Pirates, to get to him for five earned runs in six innings. Now Blanton is dealing with a Reds offense that is among the best in the league. Cincinnati just saw him on June 29th and, though they didn’t enjoy great success, they only struck out twice against him so he wasn’t fooling the hitters. The Reds got three runs on eight hits against Blanton in that start and, seeing him again in less than two weeks time, Cincinnati is likely to enjoy even more success in the rematch. The Reds are 33-22 to the over in night games this season. The Phillies are 7-0 to the over in Blanton’s last seven starts! The Reds are 3-0 to the over in Leake’s last three starts! Play OVER the total in Philadelphia as an *8* Regular Play selection.

VINCE AKINS

Angels at A's
Pick: Angels

Angels starter Joel Pineiro has now worked five straight quality outings, allowing a total of six runs in the five starts, and has quietly been an All-Star caliber pitcher since May. We’ll grab him on this short line tonight.

La is the slight favorite here and that’s been a good situation for Pineiro as the Angels are 6-0 since May 16, 2010 when Joel Pineiro starts as a favorite for a net profit of $600.

Pineiro worked seven shutout innings his last start in an 11-0 win against Kansas City on Sunday night baseball. The Angels are 5-0 since June 11, 2010 when Joel Pineiro starts after his team won the last time he started for a net profit of $550.

That was LA’s last win as they have now lost four straight. Yesterday, they fell to Chicago, 1-0, managing only two hits and seven left on base individually. The Angels are 8-0 since May 27, 2009 as a favorite after a loss in which they left fewer than 10 men on base for a net profit of $800.

Oakland starter Vin Mazzaro has been strong lately as well, winning his last two starts by allowing a single run in each. The Athletics are 1-10 since July 19, 2009 as a home dog when they won the last two games their starter started for a net profit of $830 when playing against.

CANADIAN BACON

Friday

Toronto Argonauts at Winnipeg Blue Bombers (-11.5, 46.5)

It looks like it’s going to be another tough season for Toronto CFL fans. Once again the defense of the Double Blue held its ground in Week 1 for at least the first half against the Stampeders. But the offense led by QB Cleo Lemon, who was 16 in 28 for 192 yards, didn’t offer much.

Rookie receivers Jeffery Webb and Brandon Rideau dropped a few easy catches, and even sure-handed Jeremaine Copeland fumbled the ball after a catch. No, the Argos’ attack didn’t shine on opening night.

It’s a different story for Winnipeg. Blue Bombers QB Buck Pierce completed 17 of 25 passes for 291 yards and a pair of TDs without throwing an interception against the Tiger-Cats. Wideout Terrence Edwards also had a great game reeling in five balls for a couple of TDs. If Pierce and Edwards are given the opportunity, they will rip the Argos defense to shreds.

But the veteran QB will need more support from his O-line. Pierce got sacked four times and was hurried multiple times against Hamilton. That’s not a good sign for a signal caller who’s been injury prone throughout his career and especially vulnerable to concussions.

Also keep in mind that defensive end Phillip Hunt had a blast against Hamilton’s rookie RT Simeon Rottier last week with a career high three sacks, two tackles and a forced fumble. Toronto RT Chris Van Zeyl has only five starts in the CFL.

Pick: Winnipeg

SPORTS WAGERS / RANDALL




Florida/ARIZONA under 9 Pinnacle

The D-Backs and Marlins rank 1st and 2nd, respectively, in strikeouts in the NL, and with two power pitchers on the mound, there’s likely going to be a lot of whiffs in this game. That’s always good for the under. Don’t even think about Haren’s 4.38 ERA. Rather, concentrate on the differential between his ERA and his xERA (3.48) and feel confident that a positive correction is coming. Fact is, Haren's control, domination and BPV (137) are Elite with a capital "E". The fly in the ointment? Haren is giving up bombs at an unprecedented rate (1.6 HR/9). You can bet that corrects itself as well. Then there’s Ricky Nolasco, who is similar to Haren in that his ERA is higher than it should be. Nolasco’s ERA over his lat five starts (4.91) is a complete illusion, as his xERA is 2.38. Nolasco has been pummeled by an unfavorable hit percentage and strand percentage. Like Haren, he, too, has pinpoint control, as evidenced by his 19 walks in 103.2 innings. Bottom line is that the surface stats don’t reflect this elite-pitching match-up and therefore we get a very beatable number to go under against. Play: Florida/Arizona under 9 (Risking 2.12 units to win 2).



HOUSTON +1.85 over St. Louis Pinnacle

What we have here is the majors most overvalued team, the Cards, playing the majors most undervalued team, the Astros and the result is an inflated line. Hopefully, the Cards will be favored in all three games so that we can all get some great value over this weekend. Even with such a horrible record, the Astros have won four of six from the Cardinals this season, all at Busch Stadium, and swept St. Louis during a three-game set May 11-13. Bud Norris (75 BPV, 5-0-2-3-4 PQS) has made encouraging back-to-back starts since returning from a DL stint for right biceps tendinitis. Norris has faced the Cardinals twice this season, compiling a 0.69 ERA and 182 BPV (see the bottom of this page for an explanation of BPV and PQS). Adam Wainwright is an elite pitcher. He’s been incredibly consistent with his skills this season (despite a recent rough start against Toronto), posting month-by-month BPV scores of 103, 143 and 110. He can dominate, anytime, anywhere and certainly can do that here. However, this isn’t about playing against Wainwright at all. It’s about taking back +1.85 on the Astros against a team they can beat and that is way overpriced. Incidentally, the Cards have lost three, six of eight and its pen is in bad shape after a three-game set in Colorado while the Astros have won three straight and its pen is in good shape after playing the feeble Pirates. Play: Houston +1.85 (Risking 2 units).



Baltimore +2.15 over TEXAS Pinnacle

We’re going to split this up and play the Orioles in the first five and the full game because of an O’s bullpen that cannot be trusted, especially at this park. Anyway, what is true is that Scott Feldman should not be better than a 2-1 favorite over anyone. Feldman is about as ordinary as they come and even that’s a stretch. He’s won five games all year for a team that’s won 50 games and it’s not because he doesn’t get run support. The Rangers are just 8-9 in games that’s he’s started, so he’s personally lost 25% of all the Rangers losses this year. Feldman is 0-2 in his last three starts with an ERA of 7.13. In three recent games vs Houston, Pittsburgh and Seattle, arguably the three worst offenses in baseball, Feldman lasted a combined 18.2 innings and allowed 30 hits for a BAA of .427. On May 20 he faced the O’s and they, too, hit him hard to the tune of 12 hits in six innings. Brian Matusz has made some great strides over his last seven starts. He’s coming off a two-hit, seven inning gem against the Red Sox. In fact, Matusz has allowed three runs or less in six of his last seven starts and right across the board his numbers are better than Feldman’s. Since June 1, Matusz has seen his ERA dip 1.20 runs and that’s a damn good sign. The Orioles are playing much better ball these days too. They’re scoring runs and they should have won three of its last five after blowing a late four-run lead against the Tigers on Tuesday. They beat the Rangers here last night and with a tag like this against Feldman, they’re definitely worth a shot tonight. Play: Baltimore +2.00 in the first five innings (Risking 1 unit). Play: Baltimore +2.15 (Risking 1 unit)

Play: Cleveland (ML +196)

You'll be hard pressed to find gigantic underdogs where everything looks great for the upset on paper. Certainly that's the case here as the Indians have lost three in a row and the red hot Rays are on a 6-0 streak. But I believe the road team has a real shot to get the shocker tonight. Fausto Carmona is seldom sensational, but he's generally reliable. The same cannot be said for struggling James Shields, who has had all kinds of trouble lately after tearing things up early. Right now, Shields simply isn't pitching well enough to justify his role as big chalk, and Carmona is a tough enough adversary to give the Tribe a real opportunity here. The big price is the key that gets me over the top and willing to go for the shocker with the Indians.

Jack Jones Free Pick For Friday: Cardinals/Astros UNDER 7.5

I'm taking the UNDER in this NL Central clash tonight between the Cardinals and Astros. The reason is simple. Both Adam Wainwright and Bud Norris have dominated their respective opponents throughout their careers. Wainwright is 12-5 with a 2.24 ERA this season, with one of those wins coming against Houston on April 12th where he pitched 8 shutout innings in a 5-0 victory. That win improved Wainwright to 8-1 with a 1.54 ERA and 0.986 WHIP in 10 career starts vs. Houston.

Bud Norris is not an elite starter, but the Cardinals cannot figure him out. Norris is 4-0 with a 0.35 ERA and 1.038 WHIP in 4 career starts vs. St. Louis dating back to last season. During those 4 starts, Norris has surrendered just 1 earned run and 27 base runners in 26 innings while striking out 25 batters. The UNDER is 7-3 in Wainwright's 10 starts vs. Houston, while the UNDER is 4-0 in Norris' 4 starts vs. the Cardinals. The UNDER is 26-10-1 in the last 37 meetings in this series overall.

Roll with the UNDER Friday.

MLB Money Line Fri, 07/09/10 - 10:05 PM

dime bet 977 ANA (-108) Bodog vs 978 OAK
Analysis: I cannot emphasize enough how big this series is for the LA Angels. They come in having lost 6 of their last 7 games, and really needing to gain ground on Texas before€ the All-Star break. It just so happens that the Angels OWN Oakland. Over the last three seasons they've been able to win series after series against the A's. And although I'm not a huge advocate for a team's history being very telling of the future, I do think the Angels know what they're doing when it comes to facing the A's.

The Angels have picked up wins in the last 6 starts that Pineiro has been involved in, and although he's certainly not a go-to guy on the road, he's been effective over the last three weeks, and that's key. His only start against Oakland this season... A complete game shutout. Aside from that, Oakland really hasn't seen the guy much since he left Seattle, and as a result there is a little bit of an unfamiliarity with that hard-breaking 2-seamer. I'm not huge when it comes to backing Pineiro on the road, but he can handle the Oakland lineup, he's proven that. And, he's hot like fire.

On the other side, Vin Mazzaro is riding a bit of a hot streak as well, but it's his pitching style that raises flags for me. He's a contact pitcher, facing up against one of the best contact hitting clubs in baseball. The angels are the king of small ball, and Mazzaro is a guy that will allow plenty of balls to be in play. He's simply not the kinda guy I expect to be successful against the Angels. He does have one good start against them this season, but prior to that he had given up 11 runs in just 8 innings (two starts) against the Angels in his career. Small ball and Vin Mazzaro just do not match.

I'm big on the Angels bouncing back against a team they feel very comfortable against, and I'm extremely confident that they'll be motivated to bounce back strong before the break. Oakland on the other hand, is kind of limping into the break with a ton of young players that are in need of a rest from this day-to-day that they're virtually unfamiliar with. Take the Angels, and expect motivation and timely hitting to be the name of the game.

double-dime bet 971 CLE / 972 TAM Over 8 Bookmaker.com
Analysis:
2** OVER the TOTAL / Cleveland Indians w/ Carmona @ Tampa Bay Rays w/ Shields / 7:10pm ET

Game One:
JIM REYNOLDS is one of the best 'OVER' Umpires in all of Major League Baseball in the last 3 seasons. Any guy that has 25 MORE 'Overs' than 'Unders' will definitely get the attention of sharp OU Players. In Ame~rican League games this season, Reynolds has gone 'Over' at a 75% clip (10.8 combined runs per game). And in "Righty versus Righty" pitching matchups, his percentages are even higher (4-1 O/U / 80% this year / 26-12 O/U last 3 years). Reynolds has also gone 4-1 O/U in Indian ROAD games over the last 4 years.... and 8-2 O/U in Tampa Bay Ray games (including 4-1 O/U In THIS Park). He's also a PERFECT 3-0 O/U in career James Shields starts. Finally, we note that Reynolds has gone a PERFECT 4-0 O/U on FRIDAYS...

Fausto Carmona's ERA in his last 3 starts is approaching 6 runs per game (5.71). And he's allowed MORE walks than strikeouts in those 3 starts.. an indicator of a possible shellacking tonight. In 5 career starts vs the Rays, Carmona has gone a PERFECT 4-0-1 O/U... with an ERA of 6.65.
James Shields is in a rough patch of his own these days. ERA in last 5 starts is a whopping 8.26. He's gone 4-1 O/U in those 5 starts. In his last 3 home starts, his team has lost by scores of 8-5... 14-9... and 5-4 (ERA of 12.32!).

THE CONSENSUS PICK

Pick of the Day: Royals/White Sox Under 9* (-120) [MLB]
Listed Pitchers: Chen vs. Buehrle
* This is NOT a play if the Over/Under drops to 8.5.

Free Pick: Diamondbacks (-139) [MLB]
Listed Pitchers: Nolasco vs. Haren

[golden contender]

On Friday the free play is on the New York Mets. Game 956 at 7:10 eastern. The Mets have won 4 of 5 vs the Braves this season. The Mets are 10-3 off a day off this year and 9-4 on Friday. Atlanta is just 5-9 on the road in this range this season. Atlanta hits just .237 vs Division games. In the pitching matchup the Braves have T. Hanson on the mound and he has been hit hard over his last 3 starts with a 8.99 era. The Mets counter with knuckle baller RA. Dickey. Dickey has a 1.33 home era and has given teams fits so far this season. The Braves are in first place. However they are not a strong road teams and may struggle with Dickey and his knuckler. Look for the Mets to take game one of the series. On Friday we have the MLB Divisional Game of the Month. This big play is backed with a 24-1 Power angle and a 10-1 system. I also have a 5* 16-2 Dominator system that wins by an average 3 runs per game. For the free play take the Mets tonight. BOL GC

double-dime bet 963 FLA / 964 ARI Over 8 Bookmaker.com
Analysis:
2** OVER the TOTAL / Florida Marlins w/ Nolasco @ Arizona Diamondbacks w/ Haren / 9:40pm ET

Game Two:
The Fish and the Snakes went "OVER" in Game One of this series last night... and we'll look for a similar outcome in Game Two. After all, tonight's two starters (Haren and Nolasco) have combined to go 18-5 O/U in all NIGHT starts this season. Ricky Nolasco of the Marlins has a nighttime ERA that's almost a full 3 RPG more (5.35) than his daytime ERA (2.73). His lone 2009 start in this park resulted in 7 earned runs allowed in only 6 innings pitched. He's 10-3 O/U as a road dog of +150 or less... 6-2-1 O/U on Fridays... and 4-1 O/U off a Quality Start. Meanwhile, Dan Haren has gone a surprising 14-4 O/U in all starts this year. He's 8-1 O/U pitching off a Quality Start.... 11-2 O/U on 4 days of rest... 6-2 O/U on Fridays... and 8-2 O/U as a home fav.

Getting the call behind the dish will be ROB DRAKE. He comes in on a big-time "OVER" run as of late. His last 9 games dating back to late May have seen a record of 7-1-1 O/U overall. Average combined runs scored during that run has been 11.0. He just worked a game on Monday night that saw a whopping 21 runs scored (Balt @ Det). Drake has gone 7-3 O/U in Marlin games in the last 3 years (including 5-1 O/U when the Fish take to the road). Also 7-3 O/U in Arizona D'Back games (4-1 O/U at home)... and 1-0 O/U in career Dan Haren starts

*This is an ACTION Play. It is a play REGARDLESS of who pitches for the Mariners

Game Three:
This is a play on the "Over" REGARDLESS of whether Cliff Lee is traded to the Yankees today... or not. The Man in Blue in Seattle tonight is RON KULPA. He's had TWICE as many "Overs" as "Unders" on the season... and his 12-6 O/U overall is ranked #3 in overall Major League Umpire results thus far (10.0 combined RPG). His numbers have been even stronger as of late. Kulpa has gone 6-1 O/U in his last 7 games since the beginning of June. Total runs scored in those games has been: 13... 9... 5... 14... 15... 12... and 11 (11.4 RPG).

Phil Hughes of the Pin-Stripers is coming off a couple of rough starts in a row in which 13 and 11 total runs were scored (ERA of 8.48). He just faced the Mariners 11 days ago and lost by a score of 7-4. He allowed 6 earned runs in 5 innings of work. His last 9 starts have seen a record of 8-1 O/U overall... and his Yankee teammates have supported him with an average of 7.6 runs per game on offense. If Cliff Lee DOES start tonight for the Mariners, we note that he has gone a PERFECT 3-0 O/U in his last 3 starts....

Friday's Action

20 DIME COLORADO ROCKIES laying the 1½ runs over the Padres in N.L. West action. Both Jorge De La Rosa (Colorado) and Kevin Correia (San Diego) must start this game or this play is VOID!

5 DIME HOUSTON ASTROS plus the big money over the Cardinals in N.L. Central action. Note that you must list Bud Norris as Houston’s starting pitcher. If Norris does not start, this play is VOID!

Rockies (-1½ runs)

Gotta ride the scorching-hot Rockies tonight, even though their starting pitcher tonight (Jorge De La Rosa) is coming off an 11-week stint on the disabled list and hasn’t pitched since April 25.

Colorado just swept the Cardinals – including two incredible come-from-behind victories on Tuesday and Wednesday – and it has won four in a row, six of seven on its current homestand and eight of 10 (including two wins in San Diego). With this recent surge, the Rockies are a season-high nine games over .500 and just 2 ½ games back of the Padres in the N.L. West.

As for De La Rosa, I know he got lit up in his final rehab start last week, but he was solid in his first two minor-league outings. Besides, pitching in the Pacific Coast League is not necessarily a gauge on how good a guy’s stuff is. Rather, take a look at what De La Rosa did before tearing a tendon in his finger in late April: He went 3-1 with a 3.91 ERA in his first four starts, including 2-1 with a 3.00 ERA at home. That includes a dominating 7-0 win over the Padres on April 9 (the lefty gave up just one hit and one walk with nine Ks in seven innings). And going back to last September, Colorado is 3-0 when De La Rosa faces San Diego, and De La Rosa was brilliant in two of those three starts (one run, six hits in 14 innings).

The Rockies (now 29-15 at home) have won six of nine from San Diego this season, and they’re 4-1 the last five times they’ve faced Padres right-hander Kevin Correia (all since the start of the 2009 season). In those five games, Correia gave up a total of 18 runs in 25 1/3 innings (6.40 ERA), including two losses this year by scores of 5-2 and 10-6 – and both of those games were in pitcher-friendly Petco Park!

Correia is coming off a strong 1-0 home win over the Astros, but his ERA since the end of May is still a bloated 6.50. Also, he’s 2-2 with a 6.07 ERA on the road this year, and all six of San Diego’s losses with Correia starting this season have been by multiple runs.

The Rockies are 8-2 in De La Rosa’s last 10 starts dating to last September (five wins by multiple runs) and they’re an astonishing 21-5 in his last 26 trips to the mound, 13-3 in his last 16 Coors Field starts, 5-0 in his last five Friday outings and 6-0 the last six times he’s opened a series.

Astros

Why not take a shot with Houston at this rich underdog price at home? The Astros just finished off a three-game sweep of the Pirates (giving up just five runs in the three victories), and they’ve won five straight home games. St. Louis just got swept in a three-game series at Colorado and it has lost six of its last eight overall and 11 of 15 on the road (including the last four in a row).

I know the pitching matchup here – on paper anyway – favors the Cardinals in a big way (hence the big odds). But as great as Adam Wainwright has been this season for the Redbirds, he’s a sub-.500 pitcher on the road (3-5 despite a 3.20 ERA, and St. Louis has lost six of his nine road starts). And while the Cardinals are 6-0 when Wainwright pitches in day games, they’re 6-6 when he throws at night.

Yes, Wainwright has dominated the Astros the last three seasons, leading the Cardinals to nine wins in 10 tries since the start of the 2007 season (and he’s given up just 12 runs in 70 innings (1.54 ERA). But look at what Houston right-hander Bud Norris has done in four career starts (two this year, two last year) against St. Louis: 4-0 with a 0.35 ERA (he’s allowed two runs – one earned – in 26 innings).

In fact, since the start of last August, Norris is 4-0 with a 0.35 in four starts against the Cardinals, but 4-9 with a 6.94 ERA in 17 other starts!

With Norris leading the way, the Astros have won four straight against the Cards this year (all in St. Louis), and Houston is 7-2 in the last nine meetings in Texas

BLUE JAYS +120....(2*)....ROMERO over Lester
The Red Sox can't get to the All-Star Break fast enough, after losing 4 straight games heading into this Final Series with the Jays...On the flip side, Toronto comes in off beating the Twins in 2 of 3...and sit at .500 for the season...So we can be sure, they definitely want to reach that goal of staying above .500 going into the break...
More importantly, we have a starting pitcher whose Home/Away SPLITS are huge...Romero has an ERA above 5.00 on the Road...and an ERA below 1.50 at Home...Where he also sports a WHIP of less than 1.00...So he will be extremely tough to beat whenever he gets the start at Home, where he'll be tonight...
Finally...as good of a season as Lester is having...when you look at his results on the Road...you will find that the Red Sox have only gone "4-4" in his starts...And after beating the Jays in Toronto early in the season, I expect the Home team to get some revenge here tonight...
S let's go ahead and back a winning team at Home...with an incredible Home pitcher on the mound...at a DOG Price based on Perception along...And see if we can add another winner to our Morning Moves Program...VR

Stan is Betting OAKLAND today. Stan notes that the ANGELS can't buy a run right now. In their last 8 games they have scored 2 runs or less in 7 of them. Both teams are on losing streaks but Oakland just played the Red Hot Yankees and they were winning before that. Both pitchers are razor sharp. Oakland is 12-4 at home this season following a game in which they were held to 2 runs or less. These 2 split a 4 game series here in June but Oakland outscored them 19-13 in their 4 games

TATSUYA KAWAJIRI -115 Shinya Aoki

MITSUHIRO ISHIDA -200 Daiki Hata

I believe we have a distinct pitching edge tonight in our favor. I trust Tommy Hanson far more than i trust R.A. Dickey.

Dickey has been great up to this point, but at some point he's going to revert back to the R.A. Dickey that so many of us all know. I believe that night is TONIGHT. After all, the Braves came out as the listed favorite here, despite how great the Mets have been at home this season. I took notice of this line the moment it came out.

Over the past few years, Tommy Hanson is a guy that i've backed OFTEN. I realize he had a few bad performances recently, but i think he's over that stretch. In my opinion, Hanson has the track record to prove that those few starts were nothing but a blip on the radar screen. Hanson has been brilliant against the Mets in the past, and i see no reason why that doesn't continue tonight.

Coming into tonight, the Braves are playing the better baseball as a team. The Mets have been very inconsistent of laŒte, something they will need to fix if they are to beat the Braves in this series. Meanwhile, the Braves keep winning series after series. I trust this Braves team, and i trust Tommy Hanson.

I can't say the same for R.A. Dickey. The price you are paying on Dickey right now is the ultimate PREMIUM. I just don't see how he is worthy of this honor, at least not against the Braves and Tommy Hanson.

The Braves win this game 5-2 tonight. The Braves -112 is one of 2 DOUBLE STAR SELECTION tonight!

double-dime bet 965 CHC (+137) Bodog vs 966 LOS
Analysis: The Chicago Cubs +137 is the 2nd DOUBLE STAR Play for today!

I knew the moment last night's game was over that i was going to be all over the Cubs tonight. Here's why:

1. The Cubs are playing better of late. This team has become a good road dog all of a sudden.

2. They lost a very close game last night. That's important, as this team appears to be quite streaky and emotional. The fact that they were quite competitive last night says a lot.

3. I FIRMLY believe the Cubs have the BETTER starting pitcher going tonight. Ted Lilly is a QUALITY START MACHINE. He is pitching against the team that originally drafted him. He will be pitching in front of numerous family and friends. THIS START means a great deal to a TRUE COMPETITOR. This can't be understated.

4. I don't believe in Chad Billingsley yet. Yes, he has been sharp since coming back from injury. But that was only 2 starts. How will he fare tonight against a team that's quite talented and finally starting to play to expectations??

5. This line is VALUE. Quite frankly, this line is just too high. I expected something like .25 cents lower on this line. I know value when i see it. Tonight is value.

Behind a great pitching performance from Ted Lilly, the Cubs will score just enough to win this game. The Cubs +137 is a SWEET, SWEET, DOUBLE STAR SELECTION!

VR's Morning Moves | MLB Money Linedouble-dime bet 968 TOR (+120) Bodog vs 967 BOSAnalysis: ** MLB MORNING MOVES 2* BOOKIE BET **
BLUE JAYS +120....(2*)....ROMERO over Lester
The Red Sox can't get to the All-Star Break fast enough, after losing 4 straight games heading into this Final Series with the Jays...On the flip side, Toronto comes in off beating the Twins in 2 of 3...and sit at .500 for the season...So we can be sure, they definitely want to reach that goal of staying above .500 going into the break...
More importantly, we have a starting pitcher whose Home/Away SPLITS are huge...Romero has an ERA above 5.00 on the Road...and an ERA below 1.50 at Home...Where he also sports a WHIP of less than 1.00...So he will be extremely tough to beat whenever he gets the start at Home, where he'll be tonight...
Finally...as good of a season as Lester is having...when you look at his results on the Road...you will find that the Red Sox have only gone "4-4" in his starts...And after beating the Jays in Toronto early in the season, I expect the Home team to get some revenge here tonight...
S let's go ahead and back a winning team at Home...with an incredible Home pitcher on the mound...at a DOG Price based on Perception along...And see if we can add another winner to our Morning Moves Program...VR

wow!! thanks my man!!

His response to losing the C bet. Too fkn funny.


--Yesterday proved to be invaluable! Although The betting series with
Pittsburgh began with them being within the .15 range of RPI
differential, that quickly changed as soon as they lost their first
game. Pittsburgh had an RPI of .459 to Houston's .477 (.18 difference)
before the [B} wager began, and an even greater deficit before the
[C] game began. We must keep in mind that under no circumstances
should a wager be made when the RPI difference between two teams is
greater than .15. Going forward, it's important to walk away from a
betting series if the RPI difference between two teams become
greater than the .15 limit during any time within the series!

For today, we have an official [A] wager on the Saint Louis Cardinals
in their game versus the Houston Astros. This betting series will be
100% within the RPI differential filter throughout the entire series,
so it is literally guaranteed for the win! Load it up!

Good luck!

MTI SPORTS

Guaranteed Pick: MTI Sports
4.5* PLAY OF THE DAY
Game: St Louis Cardinals at Houston Astros Jul 9 2010 8:05PM
Prediction: Houston Astros
Reason: The Cardinals are in a vulnerable spot here. They are facing a divisional opponent that is well behind them in the standings, they are a big favorite and their starter is pitching very well. Many would use this information as a reason to lay the 200. However, the actual results reveal that St Louis is a money-burning 3-6 since April 15, 2010 as a 200+ favorite vs a divisional foe that is behind them in the divisional standings for a net profit of $885 when playing against. Also, looking at Wainwright’s results we uncovered the fact that the Cardinals are 0-6 THIS season with Wainwright on the road when they won his last start. Finally, it is worth mentioning that St Louis is 3-6 as a road favorite of more than 120 when they won their starter’s last two starts.
This has been a terrific spot for the Astros. Houston is 6-2 THIS season as a 170+ dog vs a divisional foe that is ahead of them in the divisional standings and 4-0 their last four series openers. Bud Norris is off a start in San Diego in which he went seven innings and did not allow a single run. The Astros lost 1-0 when the Padres pushed across a run in the bottom of the eighth. Norris went deep into the count on many batters in that game, needed 113 pitches for 26 batters. This is a good sign, as Houston is a perfect 4-0 in franchise history as a 170+ dog with Bud Norris when he needed more than four pitches per batter in his previous start. Also, Houston is 3-0 in franchise history with Norris as a 170+ dog when they scored a total of fewer than three runs in his last start.

Finally, Norris has faced the Cardinals four times in his young career. The Astros won those four games by scores of 2-0, 3-0, 5-1 and 4-1. Really. The Astros have to be at least a coin flip here. We’ll grab the inflated price.

Red Sox -131

Ricky Romero has been dominant at home, posting a 1.45 ERA and 0.89 WHIP in 7 starts at Rogers Centre. The problem for Romero tonight is that Boston, despite all of their injuries, has a lineup that has hit him very well. Romero went 1-3 with a 7.66 ERA in five starts against the Red Sox as a rookie last season, failing to pitch through the sixth inning in any outing. Here are some Boston numbers against Romero: With just a few AB's, Bill Hall is 2 for 3 and Adrian Beltre is 1 for 2. With more than a handful of AB's against Romero, we have J.D. Drew at 5 for 10, David Ortiz at 6 for 12 with 3 doubles and a homer, and Kevin Youkilis at 4 for 9 with a double and 2 homers. I like our chances of run production from Boston with those numbers.

On the flip side, Jon Lester has been dominant no matter where he pitches. In 8 road starts, Lester owns a 2.75 ERA and 1.13 WHIP. He is 10-1 with a 1.84 ERA over his last 14 outings. Lester has flat out OWNED this Jays lineup. He faced the Jays at Rogers Centre back on 4/28 and held them to ONE hit and NO runs while striking out 11 in 7 innings of work. Only Jose Molina (.385 in 13 AB's, but all singles) is hitting better than .250 against Lester. Lyle Overbay is hitting .250 with 2 doubles against Lester in 16 AB's, but nobody else has done much against him. Bautista, Buck, Encarnacion, Gonzalez, Hill, Lind, McDonald, and Wells are a combined 15 for 96 (.156) with 5 doubles and 2 homers against Lester.

Bottom line: Boston has hit Romero well in the past, so I see no reason why they won't score on him tonight. Lester has owned the Jays lineup for the most part. The Jays rely on the homerun, but Lester has only given up 5 homers in 114 innings this season, and NO homers in 52.1 innings on the road. After hitting 5 dingers last night, I wouldn't expect more than one tonight, if any at all. The Jays are only batting .205 and scoring 3.5 runs per game against lefties at home, and they'll be hard-pressed to match those numbers against Lester tonight.
