NASCAR betting: Finger Lakes 355 at The Glen preview

The NASCAR Sprint Cup adds a little twist this week as the series heads to the road course at Watkins Glen for Sunday’s Finger Lakes 355 at The Glen.

Few drivers can deal with the twists and turns of the Glen, and has the stats to back it up, better than this week’s favorite Tony Stewart. Stewart has the most wins among active drivers here with five and has the highest driver rating at the Glen.

“It’s a race that we always look forward to,” Stewart told the media. “We’ve had a lot of success there and it’s just fun. It’s like taking Sonoma and just multiplying the speed times three. It’s just a lot faster track. It still has the same elevation changes, but you’re just running a lot quicker. Both Sonoma and Watkins Glen are two places on the schedule that we really enjoy coming to.”

Stewart finished second at the only other road course stop this season, Sonoma, and is the clear favorite to add a sixth win to his Glen resume Sunday.

“When you’ve won five races, it gives you that confidence that you know how to win, and know what you have to do to get to victory lane,” he said. “I know what feel I need when we get here. It’s just a matter of going out and practicing and putting yourself in that position.”

Jeff Gordon broke a winless streak by being in the right place at the right time last week at Pocono. He has four wins here, and while the last one at the Glen was in 2001, Gordon has nine career road course wins leading all drivers past and present. With his win last week, Gordon has renewed energy and will look to continue his rebound towards a berth in the Chase. Gordon could go all the way Sunday and find his way back to victory lane at the Glen for the first time in over a decade.

"(The Pocono win) only puts more pressure on us over these next several weeks, but we're ready for the challenge," said Gordon, who has moved from 22nd in the point standings to 13th on the heels of seven consecutive finishes of 12th or better. "With all we've been through this year and this team staying together while not pointing fingers, we knew if we could get to Victory Lane it would make us stronger.

"We've put together a string of good runs and finishes, but we have to keep fighting for wins,” he added. “I don't know if one win will be good enough to secure a wildcard spot."

Kyle Busch started from the pole here last year. He would go on to finish third and heads back to the Glen looking to seal the deal. After winning no fewer than three races a season since 2008, Busch has been uncharacteristically absent from victory lane, his only win this season was at Richmond in May. With the kind of speed he showed here last season, Busch could add a much needed win at the Glen and increase his hopes of making the Chase. Busch knows how to get around the Glen and enjoys racing here.

“To me, going through turn one and up through the esses are pretty cool and a lot of fun,” Busch said. “It’s challenging but, yet, a lot of fun. As you come down the front straightaway, it’s a downhill braking zone, so you feel like you don’t have to brake as soon as you need to, but you need to in order to get slowed down for turn one. You try to stay out and get a good, hard cut to the right for turn one and accelerate out of there as quickly as you can to get set up for the esses. (You) stay wide on the left and then turn into the right-hander in (turn) two – smooth. You’re getting out of the gas but not using too much brake, just rolling off in there. As the car gets in there and loads, it actually takes a really big set because that’s when you start going back uphill. So the car will load up and that’s when you get back in the gas really wide open. And then you have to turn back to the left and be able to roll back out of it just enough to make the car bend. And then you’re back wide open again to the right-side guardrail and just keeping it tight through the right-hander that we call turn five.”

Party Crasher: Don’t ever count out Jimmie Johnson. Johnson may not have a stellar road course record, but he has been on a roll and could easily add a road course win to go with his Sonoma victory from 2010.

Others: Brad Keselowski finished second at The Glen a year ago and bids to become the track’s third consecutive first-time winner. Marcos Ambrose is the defending winner of this race and while his team seems to be struggling if they find their groove, Ambrose could repeat Sunday.

Bottom line: 19 of the 29 races at Watkins Glen have been won from a top-five starting position. 21 of the 29 races at Watkins Glen have been won from a top-10 starting position. The deepest in the field that a Watkins Glen race winner has started was 18th by Steve Park in 2000.

What bettors need to know: Rams at Colts

St. Louis Rams at Indianapolis Colts (-1.5, 34)

Most eyes will be on Colts quarterback Andrew Luck, the top overall pick in April’s draft. The Stanford standout is expected to be given 20 to 25 plays in the preseason opener, according to offensive coordinator Bruce Arians.

Luck replaces Peyton Manning in Indianapolis and his preseason NFL debut is the main reason NFL Network has decided to televise the game nationally.

The Rams went 4-0 in the preseason last year before a 2-14 regular season. New head coach Jeff Fisher takes the warm-up games seriously, especially on the defensive side of the ball.

“What you want to do through the preseason is not give up a lot of points, keep the penalties down – keep them way down – protect the football, block and tackle and execute and let the score take care of itself,” Fisher said earlier this week.

He also announced that many of his starters, including running back Steven Jackson and quarterback Sam Bradford, will only partake in “12 to 20 plays” on Sunday.

Sunday Night Baseball: Braves at Mets
By STEVE MERRIL

The Mets and Braves take over Sunday Night Baseball in New York where the home team hopes to make one last push for the playoffs.

SHEETS OF SUCCESS

Ben Sheets has been incredible this season after having not started since July of 2010. The righty is 4-1 with a 1.41 ERA in five starts for Atlanta. It came at a great time as Jair Jurrjens was ineffective and Brandon Beachy was ruled out for the rest of the season. Sheets made his debut this season against the Mets; he allowed just two hits and one walk while striking out five in six innings. The one weak link in Sheets this season has been his inability to go longer than six innings. Sheets’ worst start of the season came at home against Miami back on August 1st when he allowed 4 runs and 11 hits.

A NIESE MIXED BAG

Jon Niese is a “go-figure” kind of pitcher. He's 8-6 with a 3.82 ERA in 22 starts for the Mets. He has allowed 13 runs and 20 hits in his last three starts taking two losses in those games. Between June 22nd and July 17th, the southpaw made five starts for New York allowing 2 earned runs or more just twice. He has been able to keep his walk totals down allowing only four runners on base via free pass over his last six starts. Niese last faced the Braves on April 8th at home; he gave up two hits and 4 runs in six innings. He has allowed 4 runs or more in four of his last six starts against Atlanta overall.

INJURY REPORT

The Braves may be winning, but they have done so with a ton of injuries. Brian McCann and Chipper Jones are dealing with ailments that kept them out for Friday night's win. The rotation is succeeding despite the fact that Brandon Beachy, Jair Jurrjens, and Tommy Hanson are all on the DL. The Mets injury list got smaller with Johan Santana's return on Saturday. New York is surviving without Mike Pelfrey, Tim Byrdak, Dillon Gee, and Frankie Francisco although the former closer is expected to be activated for Monday's game against the Giants.

TRENDS

-Braves are 4-1 in Sheets' last 5 starts vs. the N.L. East
-Under is 7-3 in Braves last 10 during Game 3 of a series

-Mets are 3-8 in Niese's last 11 starts vs. a team with a winning record
-The Over is 22-9-1 in Niese's last 32 starts vs. a team with a winning record

HITTERS TO WATCH

-Jason Bay is 12-for-30 vs. Sheets
-David Wright is 4-for-11 vs. Sheets

-Martin Prado is 5-for-21 vs. Niese
-Dan Uggla is 7-for-23 vs. Niese

[poopoo333]

Sunday's streaking and slumping starting pitchers

STREAKING

Bartolo Colon, Oakland Athletics (9-8, 3.38 ERA)

Colon will move up a day in the rotation to make Sunday's start against the White Sox. The 39-year-old hasn’t allowed an earned run in 22 2/3 innings and has picked up wins in each of his last three starts. The last earned run given up by the right-hander came on a solo home run by the Yankees’ Curtis Granderson on July 22 in Oakland.

Jered Weaver, Los Angeles Angels (15-1, 2.13 ERA)

Weaver notched his second shutout of the season Monday in a 4-0 win over Oakland. The righty has won nine consecutive starts and his only loss this season came on May 13 to the Rangers. He toes the rubber at home against the Mariners in his next outing.

SLUMPING

Yu Darvish, Texas Rangers (11-8, 4.57 ERA)

Darvish was roughed Monday against the Red Sox as he pitched 6 2/3 innings and allowed six runs on 11 hits. The Japanese import has allowed 18 runs over his last three starts and has seen his ERA skyrocket from 3.59 to 4.57 over his last five outings. He looks to turn things around versus the Tigers on Sunday.

Vance Worley, Philadelphia Phillies (6-7, 3.83 ERA)

Worley said he got ill about an hour before Monday's game, but pitched anyway, the Philadelphia Daily News reports. He only lasted 3 2/3 innings, surrendering four runs to the Braves. The righty insists the bone chips in his elbow aren’t to blame for the poor outing and he intends to pitch through the pain for the remainder of the season. His next start is at home versus the Cardinals.

Sadly for Hondo, Burnett pitched last night like he was back in the Stadium, getting pummeled by the Pods to increase the deficit to 2,020 jensens.

Today, Mr. Aitch will steer clear of Jon Lester, aka Jonny Lager, and put 10 units on the Native Americans to slay the Sawx. Also, he is figuring on Detwiler to harm the Snakes -- 10 units on the Nats.

Atlanta is not a great team when facing left handers and in this final game of their road trip I think will play a little soft as they already guaranteed taking both series from Philadelphia and the Mets. Atlanta has owned the Mets and now that this line is so low its almost like they are baiting you to take Atlanta. Look for the Mets to get the win. Take New York.

If you bet more than 10 bucks on this game then give me a call and I will consult you to some good gambling addiction programs! Both teams are really going to struggle this year, but I see St. Louis as being the worst team in the league this year. They have all types of changes up and down their depth chart and Sam Bradford has been hit so much in his career that he has changed his play to protect himself with short arm throws ect. St. Louis even has a new kicker and punter and its just going to take them at least a season to be competitive. The Colts under Payton Manning were probably the worst preseason team in the history of football, but now with Andrew Luck in control they are going to have to take these games serious. This should be a good game if you want a few laughs. Take the Colts.

Detroit vs. TEXAS
Detroit +129 over TEXAS
Yu Darvish's is 8-2 with a 2.91 ERA when facing teams for the first time but he’s just 3-5 with a 6.45 ERA when starting against teams he has already faced. He’s already faced the Tigers. There are more problems than that. His wildness is catching up to him, as his 21 walks over his last five starts have helped to increase his ERA from 3.45 to its current 4.57. He now has issued 74 walks in 134 innings. His xERA over the last month was a major-league worst 7.76. Combine wildness with the difference in the Japanese workload structures and the size of the baseball in Japan and the result is potentially disastrous.
Detroit’s offense has been going better than Texas’ since the break (.801 OPS vs. .759). Despite the split in the first two games of this series, the Rangers still only managed to score four runs.
The Tigers have won seven of Rick Porcello’s last eight starts. They’ve scored six runs or more in all of those wins. Porcello isn’t going to dazzle but what he will do is induce a lot of groundballs (53%), keep the Tigers in the game and get plenty of run support. This one is all about taking back a decent tag against a pitcher who is simply running out of gas under unfamiliar conditions.


N.Y. METS vs. Atlanta
N.Y. METS +104 over Atlanta
The small price on the Braves instantly caught our eye, as they are the hottest team in the majors (14 wins in their last 17 games), Ben Sheets is 4-1 with a 1.41 ERA while the Mets are one of the coldest teams in the league. Also note that this is ESPN’s Sunday Night game, meaning that the books are quite aware there is going to be extra betting interest on it. This featured game has trap written all over it.
Ben Sheets made a name for himself as a premier pitcher back in early 2000’s. However, prior to this year, Sheets made just 20 starts in 2010 while missing all of ’09. He also missed significant time back in ’05, ’06 and ’07. Atlanta took a flyer on him and before his call-up, he made two Double-A starts and allowed six earned runs in 10 innings. In his five starts, he has a troublesome groundball/line-drive/fly-ball profile of 38%/29%/33%. Note the high line-drive rate of 29%. Also note that Sheets has a very fortunate strand rate of 89% and that he did not strike out a batter in his last start. Balls are getting whacked against Sheets but everything has been right at people. That will change. Sheets’ expected ERA of 3.88 (5.33 over his last two starts) strongly suggests that his comeback is all a mirage and the truth will emerge.
Atlanta is just 9-13 on the road against lefties and they’ll now face a good one in Jonathan Niese. He has 116 K’s and just 36 walks in 137 frames. Niese suffered with a 55% strand rate in July, the lowest rate of any starter with at least 20 IP that month. He has posted outstanding skills for four months running and his control is now on a four-year increase. With a lot of bad luck, Niese still has a 3.72 ERA and 1.17 WHIP. Imagine what those numbers would look like with some bounces going his way. If you were leaning Atlanta because of the small tag on them, we urge you to view this game with extreme caution, as the line tells us that the books may feel differently.

Game: Boston at Cleveland (1:05 PM Eastern)
Pick: Boston -155 (moneyline)

Cleveland has fallen apart since the All Star break and it's not surprising, with a bottom five team ERA and an offense ranked 17th in runs and 21st in slugging. The Indians are on an 8-20 run and 3-12 in their last 15 vs. a team with a losing record. Corey Kluber (6.10 ERA) goes and has below average stuff allowing 19 base runners in ten innings. The Indians are 10-21 in their last 31 home games against a left-handed starter and face southpaw Jon Lester. Lester has been up and down, but is still a strong strikeout pitcher and is 4-1 in his career against Cleveland with a 3.53 ERA. Boston has an above average bullpen and an offense ranked second in runs scored, 12th in OBP and fourth in slugging. And the Red Sox are 7-3 in Lester's last ten starts vs. Indians. Play the Red Sox.
