'Marlins on a roll'

Miami puts a five game win streak on the line when they play the second of this three game set against Washington. Henderson Alvarez toes the rubber for Marlins bringing a 7-5 record, 2.62 ERA to the hill. Marlins have thrived at home with the right-hander posting a 8-2 mark over ten starts. Alvarez trades pitches with Stephen Strasburg entering 7-8 on the year with a 3.67 ERA. The Washington righty is having an awful time when he starts on the road (1-6) with Nationals 4-6 in his ten road starts including 0-1 at Marlins Park. According to the current betting odds, the Nationals enter this contest as -$1.40 to -$1.50 road favorites. Dangerous betting territory, especially with Strasburg who can't seem to buy a win away from home and knowing Nationals are 8-13 this season in the price range, 0-3 in game-two of a series following a one run loss to a division opponent the previous night.

River City Sharps

3 Units Colorado Rockies +100

No, we haven't lost our minds and are fully aware of the Colorado Rockies massive road struggles this season! The Rockies are a MLB-worst 16-34 away from Coors Field this year and are now sporting the worst record in the National League. So even with all of those factors against us, we're going to back them tonight when they face off with the Chicago Cubs and Edwin Jackson. A couple of things to keep in mind here. For starters, Jackson (5-11, 5.76) has been a very successful "play against" for us all season and his recent form indicates he has yet to figure anything out. He has not won in his last six starts and has posted a 7.47 ERA during that span. Conversely, in a season where there hasn't been much go right, Jorge De La Rosa (11-6, 4.19) has been a bright spot for these Rockies. De La Rosa has won his last five decisions and has enjoyed tons of success against the Cubs, where he has gone 4-0 with a 1.96 ERA throughout his career. The Cubs are 1-11 in Jackson's last 12 starts vs. the NL West and 0-12 when Jackson is off four days rest. The Rockies are 11-2 in De La Rosa's last 13 starts after scoring two runs or less in their previous game. The Rockies are still the NL's highest scoring team and we think they hit around Jackson hard tonight while getting another solid performance from De La Rosa. Lots of value here tonight with the road doggie.

Game of the Day: Angels at Orioles

Los Angeles Angels at Baltimore Orioles (+104, 8.5)

The Los Angeles Angels will have revenge on their minds when they begin a three-game series against the American League East-leading Orioles in Baltimore on Tuesday. Los Angeles dropped a three-game set to Baltimore at home last week, salvaging the finale after a pair of 4-2 defeats. The Angels enter the matchup with a three-game winning streak as they held Detroit to a total of two runs in the three victories following a 6-4 loss in the series opener.

Los Angeles continues its pursuit of first-place Oakland in the AL West as it begins an eight-game road trip at Baltimore, which returns home after a 6-4 West Coast trek. The Orioles are only three games over .500 at home compared to a 32-23 mark on the road. The Angels, who are second in the major leagues in victories with 63, are only 25-22 away from home.

TV: 7:05 p.m. ET, FSN West (Los Angeles), MASN (Baltimore)

LINE HISTORY: The line opened with the Orioles as +104 home favorites.

INJURY REPORT: Angels - LF Grant Green (DL/Back) Orioles - None

PITCHING MATCHUP: Angels RH Jered Weaver (11-6, 3.36 ERA) vs. Orioles RH Chris Tillman (7-5, 3.92 ERA)

Weaver extended his winning streak to four games Wednesday against Baltimore, allowing two runs and six hits over eight strong innings. The 31-year-old has not lost since June 16 at Cleveland, going 4-0 over seven starts while yielding fewer than three runs six times in that span. Weaver is 7-4 with a 2.97 ERA in 11 career outings versus the Orioles.

Tillman was forced to settle for a no-decision in Wednesday's showdown with Weaver despite allowing just one run and five hits over six innings. The 26-year-old Anaheim native is 0-1 in his last five starts, although he yielded three earned runs or fewer in each contest. Tillman is only 1-5 at home this season but has pitched extremely well against Los Angeles in his career, going 2-0 with a 1.74 ERA in three outings.

TRENDS:

* Under is 5-1 in the last six meetings.
* Angels are 2-6 in the last eight meetings.
* Orioles are 0-5 in their last five games following an off day.
* Under is 7-0 in Orioles last seven overall.

CONSENSUS: 57 percent of users are taking the Angels -113.

2 for Tuesday by Richard Saber

1) Philadelphia Phillies at NY Mets (NL East)

The Mets have a winning record at Citi Field and Dillon Gee has gone 3-1 in his last four home starts. Plus the Mets played well at Milwaukee and have a hot bat in Lucas Duda. METS.

2) Seattle Mariners at Cleveland Indians (AL)

Trevor Bauer is turning into a top notch starter for the Tribe and will keep them in the game at the Jake, where they are a solid 29-19. Seattle off tough series with Angels and Orioles. INDIANS.

Richard Saber: 2014 record 31-26; Last week: 1-1.

2 for Tuesday by Mark Mayer

1) Colorado Rockies at Chicago Cubs (NL)

The Rockies are again dreadful on the road, but all other factors point their way. Colorado is the top run producer in the league and starter De la Rosa is 11-6. Plus Wrigley is made to order. ROCKIES.

2) Oakland A’s at Houston Astros (AL West)

An excellent chance for the Swinging A’s to fatten up their power stats in a park that yields a lot of homers. Astros starter Feldman just 4-8 and has been torched lately. ATHLETICS.

MLB betting cheat sheet: The Angels’ Mr. Dependable

Here’s a comprehensive look at betting notes for the early-week major league games:

Total Stunner

The San Diego Padres and Atlanta Braves have been the best Under bets in the National League to date – but you wouldn’t know it from the way they played this past weekend. Atlanta beat visiting San Diego 8-3 Sunday to make it a 2-0-1 O/U stretch entering Monday’s finale of the four-game set.

Dickey Down on the Road

R.A. Dickey will be hoping for a little more road run support than he usually gets as the Toronto Blue Jays (+123, 8.5) open a series against the Boston Red Sox on Monday. Dickey is just 2-7 despite a 3.77 ERA in 10 starts away from Toronto; the Jays are averaging just 2.8 runs in those outings.

Mr. Dependable

Jered Weaver will look to continue his consistent play of late as he leads the Los Angeles Angels into Baltimore on Tuesday. Weaver has allowed exactly two runs in each of his last four appearances and is riding a four-game Under streak dating back to early July.

Pitching Notes

* Jordan Zimmermann tries to avoid a third straight shaky outing Monday as his Washington Nationals (-148, 7.5) visit the Miami Marlins. Zimmermann has allowed eight runs over his past two starts after surrendering just seven runs over his previous seven outings combined.

* Edwin Jackson has been ice-cold of late as he and the Chicago Cubs face off against the visiting Colorado Rockies on Tuesday. Jackson has thrown just 14 total innings over his previous three starts, allowing 17 runs – all earned – while going 0-2 with a no-decision in that span.

Hitting Notes

* It’ll be a battle of Japanese countrymen Monday as Texas ace Yu Darvish leads the host Rangers (-143, 8) against Ichiro Suzuki and the New York Yankees. Ichiro has dominated his much younger compatriot in their major-league encounters, batting .368 with just two strikeouts in 19 at-bats.

* Tampa Bay catcher Jose Molina has struggled for most of the season – and likely won’t get much relief Tuesday as the Rays face Milwaukee. Molina is 0-for-14 with three strikeouts in his career against Brewers starter Matt Garza.

Totals Streak

Los Angeles Angels (3-10 O/U): The Angels have been one of the strongest Under plays in the league so far this month, and have been especially stingy of late – surrendering just two runs over their last three games, all victories over Detroit. Los Angeles is 52-47-5 O/U for the season.

Prop of the Day

The payout may not be great, but the Oakland Athletics (-140) are a strong bet to score last in their game against Houston. The Astros have the third-worst bullpen ERA in baseball (4.47), while the Athletics have scored the third-most runs in the league after the sixth inning (157).

Injury Notes

* Oakland outfielder Coco Crisp continued to deal with a neck injury and will not play Monday night against Houston (+176, 8.5). The Athletics haven’t missed a beat with Crisp out of the lineup, going 17-3 SU for a whopping +1,305 units.

* Chicago Cubs outfielder Justin Ruggiano is questionable for Monday’s game against Colorado (+126) with a groin injury. The Cubs are 12-21 SU, 14-17-2 O/U and -666 units with Ruggiano on the shelf so far in 2014.

Weather Watch

* Wind at Fenway Park will blow out to center field at 11 mph for Monday’s series opener between host Boston and Toronto. The Red Sox went 4-2 SU but just 1-5 O/U in six games under similar conditions in 2013, with teams combining for 8.5 runs – slightly below the stadium average.

Umpire Note of the Day

Over is 8-2 in umpire Gabe Morales’ last 10 games behind home plate. Morales will call the balls and strikes for Monday’s series finale between the Braves and Padres.

We want to play on certain home favorites off a home loss by 2 or more runs and scored 4 or less runs, like KC, Vs an opponent like the Twins that are off a home win and scored 4 or less runs.

Game: Seattle Mariners @ Cleveland Indians
Time: Tuesday 07/29 7:05 PM Eastern
Pick: Cleveland -107 (moneyline) at Bookmaker (http://www.bookmaker.eu)

Despite being one game under .500, the Cleveland Indians continue to hang around the race, and are a hot streak away from getting in it to stay. They have done so on the strength of their play at home, where they own an impressive 29-19 record. Seattle had it all going, but have been lethargic after the break where they have posted just a 3-7 mark in their last 10. Hisashi Iwakuma has not been nearly as effective vs. the Tribe as he has against the rest of the league, failing to record a win in three career starts and pitching to a mediocre 4.02 ERA. Trevor Bauer has been part of the Cleveland success at home, where he is 3-1 on the season with a 2.82 ERA. The Tribe are 5-1 here in his last six starts, and this has been a house of horrors for the M's where they have dropped six straight games in Cleveland. Back the Tribe in this one.

ROBERT FERRINGO (MLB)

2-Unit Play. Take #905 Philadelphia (-115) over N.Y. Mets (7 p.m., Tuesday, July 29) I liked Philadelphia yesterday but wisely didn’t bet them. I wasn’t in a rush to bet against Bartolo Colon. And right now you just never know what you’re going to get from the Phillies, who have obviously given up on the season. But if there is one thing that can get them going it is facing the Mets. And after getting wrecked 7-1 yesterday they will want to settle up a bit.

2-Unit Play. Take #907 Colorado (-105) over Chicago Cubs (8 p.m., Tuesday, July 29) After weeks of betting against the Rockies I am actually jumping on them. They have had one of their longest losing streaks on the road in the past several years and I think they can snap it today. The Cubs are just as pathetic as the Rockies right now. The difference is that the Rockies stink because of injury and the Cubs just suck in general. Chicago won yesterday but I think we have a HUGE pitching mismatch here today. Edwin Jackson is one of the worst starters in baseball. He has an ERA over 10.00 in his last three starts, over 11.00 in his last four starts

2-Unit Play. Take #909 St. Louis (+100) over San Diego (10 p.m., Tuesday, July 29) Really strange to see this line so off. I’m sure that’s an indicator that the Padres will play well. And obviously the markets have a lot of respect for Tyson Ross, who has been on fire. But Lance Lynn is no slouch. He has a 3.05 ERA on the season compared to Ross’ 2.65. The difference is that Lynn is 13-8 in his 21 starts while Ross is 10-12. That’s obviously because Lynn has better support backing him. The Cardinals have dominated this series (74-32) and they have been very good after an off day. This is a low-risk wager right here.

2-Unit Play. Take #917 Seattle (+100) over Cleveland (7 p.m., Tuesday, July 29)

2-Unit Play. Take #927 Oakland (-1.5, -120) over Houston (8 p.m., Tuesday, July 29)



Today’s Totals

7-Unit Play. Take ‘Under’ 8.0 - Oakland at Houston (8 p.m., Tuesday, July 29)
1-Unit Play. First 5 Innings: Take ‘Under’ 4.5 – Oakland at Houston (8 p.m.)

Note: I will add my writeup shortly. I normally don’t do write-ups for totals since they are based on proprietary systems. I was expecting this total to open around 7.5 and maybe even dip to 7.0. But the fact that these two teams just played with this exact same pitching matchup and the score was 13-1 caused an overreaction. But I think that both pitchers are set to have solid nights. Especially Scott Feldman. Feldman got knocked around for six runs in five innings in that game. But he is a savvy veteran and he will make adjustments. Back in May he gave up eight runs (five were unearned) to the Angels. The next start he threw six innings and allowed just two runs. He gave up nine runs to the Orioles on June 1, but rebounded from that with three straight (and five of six) starts giving up two runs or less. Feldman is going to be really motivated and I think he’ll get a leg up on the A’s. Jeff Samardzija, on the other hand, just needs to keep doing what he’s doing. He has been rejuvenated since his trade to the A’s. He has gone at least seven innings and allowed three runs or less in three of his four A.L. starts. His one road start he went eight and gave up three at Seattle. Samardzija was awesome against the Astros, going eight innings and giving up just one run. Yes, the Houston hitters are going to make adjustments. And I don’t expect Samardzija to do that again. But his stuff is popping right now and I don’t see him giving up more than two runs in seven innings. Houston belted four home runs last night. But they had scored just six runs in the previous four games and they have been held to three runs or less in 10 of their last 13 games. Oakland has been killing the ball. But after going 8-4 against the total in their last 12 I think they are going to take a step back. Everything is pointing to the ‘over’ in this one. But my systems say otherwise. I’ll call it 5-2 for the A’s and this one will tuck ‘under’.

3-Unit Play. Take ‘Under’ 7.5 – Colorado at Chicago Cubs (8 p.m., Tuesday, July 29)

3-Unit Play. Take ‘Under’ 9.0 – N.Y. Yankees at Texas (8 p.m., Tuesday, July 29)

1-Unit Play. Take ‘Over’ 7.0 – Atlanta at L.A. Dodgers (10 p.m., Tuesday, July 29)

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES OVER 3.5 RUNS (-115 @BOL)

[Can'tPickAWinner]

Andre Gomes

Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 905 Philadelphia Phillies ML (w/ C. Hamels) @ -117 / 1.85 on 5 Dimes (http://www.cappersmall.com/forums/redirect-to/?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Faffiliates.5dimes.com%2Ftra cking%2FAffiliate.asp%3FAffID%3DAF000189%26mediaTy peID%3D220%26AffUrlID%3D229)

We easily won w/ the Mets last night but truth be told, the Phillies had some great chances to score but failed to convert them, that’s why they produced just one run despite smacking 13 hits!!

For today, I think that we have another pitching mismatch, but this time, PHI has the edge!

Cole Hamels has been pretty sharp lately… his 19/1 K/BB ratio in his L2 starts is outstanding alongside w/ 0.99 & 1.39 FIP! He might be traded for a contender sooner or later, and obviously, he wants to “shine” in front of them. NYM is ranked #21 vs. LHP’s this season, so I expect him to be decent tonight.

On the other end, I’m fading once again D. Gee…

On my play w/ MIL against him I’ve wrote:

“MIL is feeling good right now after winning 3 straight contests vs. CIN. They will face NYM’s Dillon Gee who is primed for a regression in this 2nd half of season. His 2.92 ERA mark is great for the season but his 4.19 FIP / 4.00 xFIP / 4.04 SIERA stats line are telling us that he is way overrated! In his last start, he didn’t do well @SD as he allowed 4ER’s in just 5IP’s! Allowing 2 HR’s @SD is really a bad sign for him, and I expect a healthy MIL lineup to do some damage today.”

Well, he got crushed by allowing 6 ER’s in just 5IP’s! His Fastball speed (average) was the lowest in all season w/ 88.0 MPH! I expect PHI offense to do some damage. Note that they are hitting quite well lately by being ranked #6 in the league L7 days!


Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 919 Chicago White Sox ML (w/ J. Quintana) @ +154 / 2.54 on BetOnline (http://www.cappersmall.com/forums/redirect-to/?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fpartners.commission.bz%2Fpr ocessing%2Fclickthrgh.asp%3Fbtag%3Da_36640b_127)

I just can’t pass w/ the White Sox @ this current price w/ Quintana on the mound!

I had a play w/ him vs. KC but we lost it, certainly it was not because of his performance as he allowed just 1 ER in 7 IP’s of work. He has been simply brilliant lately w/ 2.95 FIP mark in June and 1.82 FIP in this month! I’m aware that the Tigers will be a tough matchup for him tonight, but I expect him to give his team a chance to win the game.

Note that we’ve ride w/ Sanchez in his last start @ARI:

“On the other end, Anibal Sanchez is coming from a strange outing vs. CLE in which he dominated in the first 6 IP’s just to implode in the 7th while giving up 4 ER’s. Nevertheless, his 7/1 K/BB ratio and 1.31 FIP & 1.94 xFIP numbers were good indicators for him. We must also not ignore the fact that CLE is a top 3 ranked team vs. RHP’s, so we have some good signs that Sanchez will bounce back today and be decent against this ARI offense.”

We won the play but he didn’t “bounce back” at all in that game: 11 hits, 5 ER’s & 4/1 K/BB ratio! He has now 3 subpar performances in his L4 starts, and IMO, Quintana is pitching clearly better right now.

Chicago Sky +4 @SA Silver Stars 8:00PM EST


Chicago Sky hade put together a mini streak on the road before the lost at Tulsa a few days ago, but they looked like the winner deep in the 3rd quarter, Sky still without Delle Donne and Vandersloot, but Sylvia Fowles makes the difference in the defense AND offense, also Breland is playing a great season

there is surely a missmatch today as the Sky have the way bigger line up, so the Silver Stars need to score from the outside which they didnt do in the last games,they played very weak in the last home game against Indiana who also have a strong physical defense like Chicago

L.A. Angels @ BALTIMORE

BALTIMORE +110 over L.A. Angels

(Risking 2 units - To Win: 2.20)

Buck Showalter has to be manager of the year. He’s kept the Orioles at or near the top of the AL East with probably the worst pitching staff in the division. The Orioles don’t have a front-line starter and they don’t even have what would be considered a #2 starter. They have five unreliable starters and among that group is Chris Tillman. The good news is that Tillman has been a strong second half pitcher when healthy. In 2012, his post All-Star oppBA was .221 in 77.2 innings. Last season his oppBA after the All-Star break was .214 in 94 frames and this season in two starts after the break his oppBA is .188. There are many encouraging nuggets in Tillman’s rather gaudy second half numbers over two plus years and counting. It includes a 66% groundball rate and that makes him worthy of backing as a pooch at home against Jered Weaver.

Once again Weaver is besting his xERA by a wide margin. Somehow, someway, he keeps going out there with an 86 MPH fastball and a 33%/50% groundball/fly-ball split and keeps getting hitters out consistently. If Weaver had outstanding secondary pitches we could understand it but he does not. His strong numbers this season have come mostly at home, where he has started 13 of 22 games. Pitching that many games at the Big A has helped him keep his ERA in check but the road has been a different story. Weaver’s road ERA of 4.45 is almost two full runs higher than his home ERA. In 54 road innings, Weaver has been taken yard 10 times. The Orioles are second in the majors in HR’s with 125 and figure to take Weaver deep once or twice here. Weaver is considered to be an ace by almost everyone because he’s consistently won for years. However, we’re here to tell you that he has defied logic for an extended period of time and his charmed life could come crashing down in a big way at any time. Trusting him on the road as the chalk is a risk we’re not willing to take.


Chicago @ DETROIT

Chicago +152 over DETROIT

(Risking 2 units - To Win: 3.04)

The White Sox are hitting .281 over the past 15 games which ranks third in the majors behind the Rockies and Blue Jays. They now get a crack at Anibal Sanchez. With so much attention being given to Justin Verlander's recent struggles, Sanchez’s troubles have gone pretty much unnoticed and we’ll attempt to take advantage. Despite posting a worthy follow-up to 2013's career-best numbers, you may not have noticed a new wart in Sanchez's game. Sanchez is having punch-out problems. Sanchez has seen a marked drop in strikeout rate since April - 9.4 K’s/9, followed by a month to month count of 7.5, 5.8 and finally 1.6, which is a sharp contrast to '13's double-digit K-rate and 13% swing and miss rate. Despite the huge drop off, his ERA remains sterling thanks to a lucky hit% and a 3% hr/f% that's sure to correct. A 44%/23% dominant start/disaster start split confirms that he hasn't been the same pitcher this season. Over his last 32 innings, Sanchez has whiffed just 17 batters and has posted a 1.41 WHIP and 5.32 ERA. Sanchez missed nearly a month between April and May with a bad blister on his middle finger, and seeing as his activation from the DL corresponds with the sharp strikeout rate drop, it's possible it hasn't fully healed or is affecting his grip in some way. If that's not the case, however, Sanchez is in for a rude awakening in the second half when the luck factors suppressing his 4.40 xERA begin to correct. Selling high might not be a bad idea.

Jose Quintana made his debut in May of 2012 with the White Sox, who were in need of staff depth for a double-header. At the time, he had logged just six starts at Double-A. With just an average fastball (86-91), lack of a swing-and miss curve, and a raw change-up, Quintana’s limited projection was based mainly on his pitchability. Already 23 at that time, Quintana was in his third organization and 2012 was his first season above High-A ball. After a relief debut and demotion back to Double-A, he was recalled later that month and ended up with 22 starts with the South Side in 2012. He ended the season with a sub-4.00 ERA, though his middling skills, including a weak strikeout rate, seemed to confirm his back-of-rotation expectation. He became rotation fixture in 2013, however, and improved his peripherals to the point where Quintana became interesting. Though his first 21 starts of 2014 Quintana’s skills are bordering on elite. He’s maintained good control; not exceptional but plenty good enough. Importantly, Quintana is piling up the strikeouts at a rate much better than his minor-league 6.7 K’s/9 from 2012. Though he’s had some hr/f help in 2014, hit and strand rates are within the acceptable range. His xERA mark also clearly shows he’s maintained his skills. In addition to his strikeout spike since July of 2013, Quintana has also benefitted from a big jump in ground balls in 2014. One other important difference is his platoon splits in which he’s been just as good against both RH and LH hitters. Quintana obviously is bringing more to the table than what his early scouting reports envisioned. He’s much more well-rounded and consistent than just about any “non-ace” in the game. His adjustments in 2013’s second half and in 2014 have brought more strikeouts (118 in 131 innings this year and 35 over his past 34 frames) and groundballs and overall better command. Plus, he’s got intangibles on his side. Quintana is a strike-thrower, works quickly, has a durable frame (6-1, 220), has shown he can evolve. His pitching coach Don Cooper has as high of a reputation as any pitching coach in the game, and on a team with Chris Sale, Quintana is not expected to lead the staff. Yet in the market, Quintana is still undervalued. He’s grown into a solid #2 starter and his peripherals suggest that his current success is sustainable. In fact, there may even be some more upside as he continues to learn how to pitch and succeed in the big leagues. Perhaps his adjustment cycle is only beginning. This kid can pitch and offers up tremendous value in this range against a Detroit team that has scored just two runs over its past three games, all losses.


Pittsburgh @ SAN FRANCISCO

Pittsburgh +109 over SAN FRANCISCO

(Risking 2 units - To Win: 2.18)

Tim Hudson owns the third-lowest hit rate in the NL with runners on base. His 19% H% in that situation combined with a 0% hr/f with runners on has fueled his surface stats (2.65 ERA, 1.13 WHIP). Hudson's continued combination of command and groundballs will still give him value but as the chalk pitching for a struggling offense, the value on him diminishes greatly. At age 38, his skills are good but NOT this good so an ERA correction in the second half is forthcoming.



The Pirates took the opener last night by a score of 5-0. The Giants have now lost five in a row while scoring a combined five runs over those five games. Ouch. Pressing at the dish, San Fran now has to face Francisco Liriano. Liriano has just four wins in 17 starts, which makes him an undervalued chucker. All he’s done is rendered RH batters helpless, conquered gopheritis and has notched a career-best swing and miss rate of 14%. History says it all; terrific strikeout rate (93 K’s in 88 frames this year) with volatile control but with the Giants pressing at the plate you can be sure they’ll be swinging at plenty of pitches outside the zone. Furthermore, Liriano’s groundball rate of 52% is also the highest mark of his career so while the wins have been difficult to come by, his skills say he’s in for a big second half and this is a great time to be taking back a tag against the Giants.

MLB Odds and Picks
By: Micah Roberts

The matchup between the Rockies (43-62) and Cubs (43-61) at Wrigley Field tonight is definitely at the bottom of the 'most important games of the day' list, but it's at the top of the best value list for bettors because Jorge De La Rosa is going against Edwin Jackson.

Both teams are battling for the worst record in the NL -- the Rockies are winning that battle by a half-game -- and if they keep things up they'll soon catch the Rangers (42-64) for baseball's worst record. Neither of these teams are going anywhere, but the game is still on the board and despite the Rockies losing their last seven games on the road after a 4-1 loss to the Cubs last night, they are attractive tonight at pick 'em (-105).

Even with the top hitter in baseball, Troy Tulowitzki (.340), being placed on the 15-day disabled list recently, the Rockies are still a play because of De La Rosa (11-6, 4.19 ERA), who has gone 5-0 with a 3.05 ERA over his last six outings. His name has been popping up in trade discussions among several contending teams and this could be his last start for Colorado for the soon to be free agent.

De La Rosa is a key component to making a wager on the Rockies today, but he's only half of the reason. The other half is Edwin Jackson (5-11, 5.76), who has been consistently bad going 0-4 with a 7.47 ERA since his last win on June 20. The Cubs are trying to deal Jackson to a contending team, but it's a hard sell. Jackson doesn't make any team better and he's got a fat contract which isn't attractive either.

If wagering on the Rockies today, be sure to list De La Rosa because there's a chance he could even be traded before he pitches, and you definitely don't want the wager if De La Rosa doesn't go.

Rockies (De La Rosa) -105 at Cubs

Total of The Day - Play Dodgers/Braves Under 7

Harang has lost his last two starts. He did pitch great in those losses. Run support for Harang has been very low. Beckett on the other hand got his rear end handed to him last time out. I expect him to have a great comeback game here. Atlanta was at home for a big home stand...Now they set sail for the far west. Atlanta is coming of a win at home, they may sleep through this one tomorrow. Dodgers have been hitting the ball very well as of late and get themselves a much needed rest day. They may be slow coming out of the gate as well. I think pitching will rule the game tomorrow.

Colorado/Chicago Cubs Under I have not seen the actual number here yet, but I am guessing it will come out at 8.5. Edwin Jackson for the Cubs is normally a gas can throwing more gas on the fire, but Colorado's high powered offense is more like a pee wee offense on the road. Throw in some key injuries for the Rockies and I think it will be hard for the Rocks to muster much offense. And Jorge DeLaRosa (11-6, 4.19 ERA) goes for the Rockies and he has been one of the few bright spots for the Rocks this season. Put that up against the low powered Cubs offense, and I see a 4-3 kind of game. I think this will be one very ugly game, with just enough futile offense to drive a purist batty. I definitely do not see a total that comes out at 7 or lower (which is where I think this game ends up), so the Under is the safe play here.

Orioles: Tillman 0-3 last three team starts. With Weaver an eye-popping 20-3 his last twenty-three team starts during July, we recommend a 1-unit play on the L.A. Angels.
