Game: Seattle at Chicago White Sox (1:10 PM Eastern)
Pick: Chicago White Sox +130 (moneyline)

Felix Hernandez gets the ball for Seattle in this one, and he has been locked-up by the Mariners with a nice long term contract. He always generates interest from gamblers, so he is quite frequently over-priced. He has been a marginal pitcher on the road, where he is just 62-59 in his career. The Mariners are also negative money when he pitches on the road as a favorite. Dylan Axelrod will face the Mariners for the first time, and the pitcher usually has the advantage as the hitters have not seen him yet. The Mariners have not been good vs. a winning team at just 7-20 in their last 27, and are just 1-6 in Hernandez' last 7 starts on the road vs. a winning team. Go with the White Sox.

Pittsburgh Pirates vs Los Angeles Dodgers
Take:
Los Angeles Dodgers -1½+104

*3 Star MLB Play of the Day* Clayton Kershaw has put together four straight seasons with an ERA less than three. At this point, you could make the argument that Kershaw is the most dominant pitcher in all of baseball. Pittsburgh has a star in Andrew McCutchen, but the rest of their lineup is very weak. The Pirates have not been able to score more than three runs in any of their games so far this season. It's hard to imagine them scoring than a couple against Kershaw. The Dodgers are a much better team than they were at this time last year. This is a lineup that could string together quite a few hits with their star power. A.J. Burnett is one of the most inconsistent starting pitchers you'll find, and I don't see him keeping up with Kershaw. The Pirates are just 23-63 in their last 86 games against the Dodgers. Take the Dodgers -1.5.

MLB | Apr 06 '13 (7:05p) Kansas City Royals vs Philadelphia Phillies	Philadelphia Phillies -130 at BetOnline
15* MLB Saturday GAME OF THE NIGHT on Philadelphia Phillies -130 After a 1-3 start to the season, the Philadelphia Phillies will be highly motivated for a victory Saturday. That's especially the case after blowing a 4-0 lead to the Kansas City Royals in Game 1 of this series. John Lannan, Philadelphia's 5th starter, is a big reason why I believe it has one of the best rotations in baseball. The left-hander has been underrated throughout his career, going 42-52 with a 4.01 ERA. The Phillies have a huge edge on the mound tonight with Lannan over Luis Mendoza, who is 14-19 with a 5.40 ERA and 1.532 WHIP over his six-year career between Texas and Kansas City. It's amazing this guy is still around with how poorly he has performed throughout his career. Kansas City is 4-18 (-13.2 Units) against the money line in road games after 2 straight games where the bullpen gave up no runs over the last 3 seasons. The Royals are 27-56 in their last 83 games as a road underdog of +110 to +150. Kansas City is 25-61 in its last 86 road games vs. a left-handed starter. Roll with the Phillies Saturday.

NBA | Apr 06 '13 (8:35p) Atlanta Hawks vs San Antonio Spurs

Total 193½ un-108 at 5dimes

20* NBA Saturday Total ANNIHILATOR on Hawks/Spurs UNDER 193.5 I'm siding with the UNDER in this game between the Atlanta Hawks and San Antonio Spurs. I fully expect a defensive battle between these two solid defensive teams tonight. A big reason I'm backing the UNDER in this contest is the fact that the Spurs are expected to be without Tony Parker (shin) and Manu Ginobli (hamstring), which are two of their best scorers. Also, both teams have been prone to the UNDER of late. Atlanta is 4-0 to the UNDER in its last four games overall, combining with its opponents to average 187.3 points/game. San Antonio is 4-0 to the UNDER in its last four games, combining with its opponents to average 181.5 points/game. One look at the recent history between these teams and it's easy to see that the books have inflated this total tonight. The UNDER is 3-0 in the last three meetings with combined scores of 191, 188 and 187 points. Atlanta is 7-0 to the UNDER when playing against a top-level team (Win Pct. > 70%) this season. The Hawks are 7-0 to the UNDER versus very good shooting teams - making >=48% of their shots this season. Atlanta is 8-0 to the UNDER in road games versus very good teams - outscoring their opponents by 6+ points/game over the last 2 seasons. Throw in the fact that the UNDER is 4-0 in both team's last four games overall, and we have a combined 30-0 system backing the UNDER in this contest tonight. Take the UNDER in this game Saturday.
