Roughriders at Ti-Cats: What bettors need to know

Saskatchewan Roughriders at Hamilton Tiger-Cats (+3.5, 55.5)

Quarterback Darian Durant and the Saskatchewan Roughriders put on their most dominant performance of the season in a 37-0 victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats at home last week. The Roughriders travel to Guelph, Ont., on Saturday looking to keep their perfect start alive in a rematch against Hamilton. Durant, who was named Offensive Player of the Week, threw for 347 yards and four touchdowns, while Saskatchewan’s defense registered five sacks as the Roughriders showed no signs of slowing down.

Hamilton can find some positives from last week, most notably its ability to contain the Roughriders' offense early in the contest. Saskatchewan did not score a point in the first quarter and the Tiger-Cats run defense limited Roughriders running back Kory Sheets to 36 yards in the first half. Quarterback Henry Burris had his worst start of the season, however, and Hamilton’s league-worst running game was held to 16 total rushing yards, something coach Kent Austin will have to address if he wants to avoid another blanking.

TV: 7:30 p.m. ET, TSN

ABOUT THE ROUGHRIDERS (4-0): Sheets rushed for 130 yards last week, bringing his season total to a league-leading 572. Wide receiver Rob Bagg continued his comeback from a devastating injury two seasons ago with two touchdown catches and 125 receiving yards last week to earn Canadian Player of the Week honours. Linebacker Renauld Williams, who was released by Hamilton after last season, was named Defensive Player of the Week and is leading Saskatchewan’s defense with five sacks and one interception, which he returned 19 yards for a touchdown.

ABOUT THE TIGER-CATS (1-3): Despite his poor showing last week, Burris is second in the league with 1,115 passing yards, while also leading Hamilton with 123 rushing yards. Wide receivers Bakari Grant (254 yards) and Greg Ellingson (237) are Burris’ preferred targets. The Tiger-Cats have allowed a league-worst 126 points as only four defensive players have 10 or more tackles and the secondary has yet to intercept a pass, leading Hamilton to release linebacker Markeith Knowlton and defensive back James Patrick and sign linebacker Brandon Isaac, who was recently released by Toronto.

TRENDS:

* Roughriders are 20-6-1 ATS in their last 27 meetings.
* The over is 10-3-1 in the last 14 meetings in Hamilton.
* The Tiger-Cats are 0-5 ATS in their last five games overall.
* Over is 4-1 in the Roughriders' last five games overall.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. The Roughriders are first in the CFL Power Rankings, while Hamilton is last.

2. The Tiger-Cats are 0-2 against West Division opponents.

3. Austin, who was quarterback for Saskatchewan when the Roughriders won the Grey Cup in 1989 and coach when they won it in 2007, spent five years coaching in the NCAA before returning to the CFL to lead the Tiger-Cats.

UFC on Fox 8 betting: Moraga's KOs make him live dog vs. Johnson
By MMAODDSBREAKER

UFC on Fox 8: Demetrious Johnson (-500) vs. John Moraga (+400)

The main event of UFC on FOX 8 is a five-round fight for the UFC flyweight championship between current titleholder Demetrious Johnson and top contender John Moraga.

Johnson (17-2-1) is the UFC flyweight champion, winning the title against Joseph Benavidez at UFC 152. Since then, the 26 year old has defended his belt against John Dodson. This will be his second title defense and it’s a fight where most expect him to cruise.

Johnson is a good wrestler with big takedowns. He’s extremely fast and showed he has evolved his standup game with an excellent Muay Thai clinch against Dodson. The problem with Johnson is that he isn’t a finisher and his fights are often tight decisions that end up in the hands of the judges.

Johnson has been lucky so far, but his wins over Miguel Torres and his draw against Ian McCall were questionable. And if he leaves this fight with Moraga in the hands of the judges, you never know what can happen.

Moraga (13-1) earned his shot at the title with stoppage wins over Chris Cariaso and Ulysses Gomez. The 29 year old is a well-rounded fighter with good wresting, strong power (for a 125er) and submission skills. And, unlike Johnson, he’s a finisher.

Although many are unfamiliar with Moraga, because his previous UFC fights were on Facebook, he’s very deserving of this crack at the belt and has a good chance to get the upset victory. Although everyone is counting him out, Moraga has more ways to win the fight than Johnson and, if he can stop the takedowns and hurt Johnson with strikes, the judges may end up siding with him when it comes time to make their decision.

This is going to be a competitive bout between two high-level and well-rounded flyweights and ultimately it may come down to the judges. These two fighters match up very evenly with one another, although you could give Moraga the power edge and Johnson the speed edge.

Look for a tight matchup with closely-judged rounds that will just depend on how the judges view the bout as both men display complete mixed martial arts attacks. And, at the odds, I’m willing to bet it’s the underdog Moraga that gets the nod.

Tigers(-143)

Max Scherzer seeks his major league-leading 15th victory as the Detroit Tigers attempt to hand the Phillies a season-worst seventh consecutive loss.
The right-hander won for the 20th time in his last 30 starts since Aug. 10, the most in the majors in that span, while the injury-ravaged Phillies (49-54) have plated only 10 runs during their losing streak, batting .208 with 48 strikeouts in 197 at-bats, and they've scored five times in their last five

The A's are the best team in the AL at home so just off that alone we know there is a good chance they win today's game. I really like the way Milone pitches at its just a matter of time before he becomes a household name. The Angels continue to struggle and are not a very good road team. Take the A's

double-dime bet - 954 WAS / 953 NYM - OVER 8
Analysis: This is an odd one. First, the weather pattern is great in DC for this play, but what really strikes me is that in spite of people jumping on the Mets, the side is shaded towards the Nationals. That tells me, that even with Bryce Harper listed as questionable, that they Nationals will finally score. Gee isn't quite the same on the road, so I can see why. And what is there to think that Haren is all of a sudden going to pitch well. Most of his worst starts have come at home, oddly enough. However, he can hit, which gives the Nationals the extra stick. And they may need it, because they're bullpen ERA since the break is well over 6.00, which is simply not acceptable.

25* Philadelphia Phillies +220 over Detroit Tigers

25* graded play on the Philadelphia Phillies as they take on the Detroit Tigers in inter-league action set to start at 7:05 PM ET. The simulator shows a high probability that Philadelphia will end their 6-game losing skid with a win tonight. All-Star Cliff Lee has been scratched due to a sore neck and has given way to Raul Valdez for tonight's start. The left-hander went 3-4 with a 3.10 ERA and 59 strikeouts in 66 2-3 innings over 12 starts for Triple-A Lehigh Valley before being recalled Tuesday, when he allowed one run and two hits in 1 1-3 innings in relief of a 4-1 loss at St. Louis. Aside from the positive projections calling for the upset win by the Phillies, the line really stands out in my eyes. Scherzer can become the first Tiger pitcher to start 15-1 since 1919 and is going up against a young inexperienced starter and a team that is walking on egg shells ahead of the July 31 trading deadline. The fact that Lee was scratched for a 'sore neck' immediately brings to light the possibility of a trade. A sore neck? Are you serious? Lee is a horse and it would take far more for him to be scratched from any start on any team. he has never been on the DL for arm, shoulder, elbow, or even neck injuries in his entire career. Thought I would just mention that. Valdez has thrown just 21 1/3 innings this season, so don't let the flash stats fool you. I truly believe he can contain the best hitting team in MLB, especially without 2012 Triple-crown winner Cabrera still sidelined with a hip flexor strain. Scherzer loves to get ahead in the count and the Phillies will sit fastball on that first pitch and attack early in the count. Detroit is just 7-14 (-14.4 Units) against the money line after allowing 1 run or less this season; 5-10 (-8.1 Units) against the money line after scoring and allowing 3 runs or less this season. Take Philadelphia.

*3 Star MLB Early Bird Special* The Tampa Bay Rays are playing better than anyone in baseball right now. Normally the Yankees are a tough matchup, but the majority of the Yankees' talent is sitting on the bench right now. Tampa has won 22 or their last 27 games overall. Chris Archer has been a great boost to the Tampa Bay rotation. He has been terrific in his last 4 starts. Ivan Nova is an inconsistent pitcher, and the Rays are hitting the ball very well right now. The Rays are 6-0 in Archer's last 6 starts. They are 4-0 in their last 4 road games against a right handed starter. They are 6-0 in their last 6 games as a favorite of -110 to -150. The Rays are 9-1 in their last 10 starts versus a right handed pitcher. Take Tampa Bay.

*3 Star MLB Total Domination* Josh Johnson was a dominate starter a couple of years ago, but something just isn't right with him this season. He has an ERA of 5.50, and he has had multiple games where he can't make it past the third inning. Houston will start Dallas Keuchel. Keuchel was never very good in the minors, and he has really struggled on the road in his major league career. Toronto hits left-handed pitchers well, and I fully expect them to put up a lot of runs against Keuchel. Houston's bullpen is the worst in baseball so there will be no relief in sight if Keuchel is knocked out of the game early. Toronto scored 8 runs in a single inning last night against Houston's bullpen. Take the over.

*4 Star MLB Play of Day* The Pittsburgh Pirates have the best team ERA in all of baseball. The Miami Marlins have the worst offense in baseball. It's a nice combination for a low scoring game. Pittsburgh's offense isn't very good, and the Marlins have actually been pitching well as of late. Tom Koehler had one terrible start at home earlier this year against the Cardinals, but other than that game, he has been very solid. The Pirates lineup certainly doesn't have the same pop that the Cardinals do, and I expect Koehler to pitch well. The under is 10-0 in Miami's last 10 games overall. The under is 9-0 in the Marlins' last 9 as an underdog. The under is 7-0 in the Marlins' last 7 games against a righty. The under is 5-0 in Morton's last 5 starts as a favorite. In all, a 31-0 angle backs this play. Take the under.

Game: Milwaukee at Colorado (8:10 PM Eastern)
Pick: Colorado -120 (moneyline) at 5Dimes

The Milwaukee Brewers have played very good baseball at home over the past few years, but for the most part they have been a train wreck on the road. So far this season, they are 16-31 on the highway. They were beaten badly here last night 8-3. Since pitching three consecutive shutouts, the Brewers' staff has fallen sharply as they have allowed 30 runs in their last five games. The Rockies' pitching has allowed just 27 runs in their last 11 games, and the way they swing the bats certainly poises them to come out on top here. Milwaukee has really struggled in anticipated offensive games, as they are 3-14 in their last 17 with a total from 9 to 10.5. The Rockies have cashed in on 20 of the last 26 meetings played here, and have the edge tonight. Take the Rockies.

L.A. Angels @ OAKLAND
L.A. Angels +126 over OAKLAND

The A’s went off for six runs last night and evened up the series with a 6-4 win but it came against career stiff, Jerome Williams. When facing a half-decent pitcher, the A’s have very little chance of scoring more than three times. In fact, they’ve been held to three runs or fewer in 12 of their past 19 games. Over that stretch they scored more than three times against Wade Davis, Luis Mendoza, Jerome Williams twice, and in Houston against three Astro starters. From July 3 to July 20, Oakland was held to three runs or fewer in 10 of 12 games and their .211 batting average in July is the worst in the majors. They A’s are no better than at least three quarters of the teams in MLB but some incredible luck, extremely timely hitting and misleading record continues to have them way overpriced. Enter Tommy Milone. Milone's upside is capped, for now. A control artist in the minors, Milone's ability to maintain similar accuracy in his second MLB season has been integral to his success but it's hard to overlook a few glaring negatives in his skill set. Milone has allowed far too many fly balls and line drives, but pitching home games at O.co Coliseum (-12% RHB HR, -31% LHB HR) has worked to his benefit (3.20 home ERA/4.88 road ERA). His groundball/fly-ball split is an alarming 33%/48%. Righties continue to give him problems, as they have hit .276 against him and the Angels line-up can load up with right-handed hitters. Milone’s 1.26 WHIP is average and his xERA of 4.64 reminds us not to overpay. If you bet on him today, you’re overpaying.
Garrett Richards will be making his first start since April. Despite a 6.26 ERA in those four starts, Richards was pretty solid (18/7 K/BB) and probably didn't deserve to lose his rotation spot. Overall, Richards has been quite good this season, albeit mostly as a reliever, with an elite 57% groundball rate. Over the past month (31 days), Richards’ groundball rate was 64% and he struck out 13 batters in 13 frames while issuing just four walks. Richards has always had the potential and if he seizes this chance he could claim a more permanent rotation spot. At pitcher-friendly O.co Coliseum against the weak hitting Athletics, his chances of winning are greater than the A’s with Milone going.

Our Pick
L.A. Angels +126 (Risking 2 units - To Win: 2.52)





http://www.sportswagers.ca/graphics/icons/logo_5.png
Minnesota @ SEATTLE
Minnesota +131 over SEATTLE

The Twins won the opener here last night in a Felix Hernandez start and they get a much easier assignment here against Aaron Harang. Harang is coming off a 2-1 victory over the Indians and while that’s impressive, neither he nor the Mariners have won consecutive games that he’s started the entire season. Harang is hit and miss but he's playing with fire now. He’s allowed 15 bombs in just 90 innings and has a fly-ball bias profile of 38% groundballs and 44% fly-balls. Harang’s 5.06 ERA is fully supported by his xERA of 4.70. Harang is prone to the occasional blowup, rarely pitches a gem and his chances of losing remain greater than his chances of winning (5 W’s in 18 starts).
Samuel Deduno has pitched under the radar the entire season and continues to be undervalued. His strikeout total is low with just 36 in 69 innings but he’s a groundball artist with a rate of 64%, the highest mark in the majors among starters with at least 40 innings pitched. Deduno also has a 50%/13% dominant start/disaster start split and at this level, that’s an impressive stat. Deduno also has an elite 17% line-drive rate and 11% line-drive rate over his past four starts. The Mariners were hot but they’ve lost two of their last three and could not win with Felix Hernandez opposing Scott Diamond (one of the biggest mismatches on the mound this year) last night. Surely, they are much too risky (and overvalued) with Harang favored by this much over Deduno.

Our Pick
Minnesota +131 (Risking 2 units - To Win: 2.62)

Saskatchewan @ HAMILTON
Saskatchewan -3½ -106 over HAMILTON

The favorites are 14-4 this season. Road favorites are 5-0 and what that suggests is that unlike previous years, there is a big disparity in this league from the best to the worst. That brings us to this game. The Tiger-Cats were supposed to be a much better group but they’ve gotten progressively worse with each passing week. After giving the Argos a scare in Week 1, the ‘Cats were blown out by Edmonton in Week 2. Blown out by Edmonton is a sentence you’re not likely going to read again this season (although the final score was 30-20, it was 30-13 with just a couple of minutes remaining). An ugly 25-20 win over Winnipeg in Week 3 by Hamilton was followed by last week’s 37-0 debacle in Saskatchewan in a game the Riders were penalized for 100 yards. The Ti-Cats can’t move forward. They have no running game whatsoever, (Henry Burris lead the team last week with 10 rushing yards) and the passing game has not been able to compensate. Last week, Burris was benched in favor of Dan LeFevour late in the game. Hamilton is a mess and it’s somewhat unreasonable to expect them to clean things up against the league’s best team.
The Riders are a different team from 2012. They added a veteran presence during the off-season with the free-agent signings of defensive backs Dwight Anderson and Weldon Brown, linebacker Rey Williams and defensive ends John Chick and Ricky Foley. They have offensive weapons galore. Kory Sheets had 24 carries for 130 yards, last week, the fourth straight game he has surpassed 100 yards in rushing. Rob Bagg led all of the Riders receivers with five receptions for 125 yards and two touchdowns. Weston Dressler had five receptions for 73 yards and a touchdown. The previous week, it was different players that contributed and we haven’t even mentioned Darian Durant yet, who converted 20-of-32 passes for 347 yards and four touchdowns last week on a sprained foot. This week he’s healthier. It all adds up to the Riders averaging 37.8 points per game while allowing 16.8. If the Tiger-Cats come out and win this game or cover, so be it but everything tells us that is not going to happen. The Riders are the class of the league while Hamilton lacks everything, especially talent.

Minnesota Twins at Seattle Mariners

This is a very interesting match up. Both teams come into this game riding really good records in their last 10 games. Minnesota is 7-3 L10 while Seattle is 8-2 L10. Minnesota took game 2 of this series in extra innings and this works in our favor. After a win Minnesota is just 21-22 and as an away team just 21-32. In back to back games the Twins have posted a 35-50 record. Seattle is at home facing one of the worst teams in baseball, the Twins who are depleted without Joe Mauer and Josh Willingham. All of these factors work in our favor and we are going to ride with this red hot Seattle team today.
