2 UNIT = Baltimore Orioles @ Seattle Mariners - ORIOLES TO WIN (-129)
Listed Pitchers: Chen vs Harang
(Note: I'm risking 2.00 units to win 1.55 units)
The Orioles and Mariners have split the first two games of this series, with Seattle winning 6-2 on Monday and Baltimore winning 7-2 last night. The Orioles are 16-11 on the season and 9-6 on the road while the Mariners are 12-17 on the year and 8-8 at home. Lefty Wei-Yin Chen will take the mound for Baltimore and he is 2-2 on the season with a 2.53 ERA, .211 OBA and 1.00 WHIP. Chen has been impressive against some team off to hot starts this year (he has faced Tampa Bay, Boston, Yankees, Dodgers, and Oakland). Over his last 3 starts he has pitched 20 innings of work giving up just 4 earned runs. Last year he was 12-11 on the season with a 4.02 ERA, .250 OBA and 1.26 WHIP. The Mariners will go with righty Aaron Harang who is looking for his first win since joining the team in the off-season. He has three starts and is 0-3 with a 11.37 ERA, .362 OBA and 1.97 WHIP. The longest outing he has had was 5 innings giving up 3 earned runs, and his latest start was 3 innings at home vs the Angels where he gave up 5 earned runs. He has faced some good hitting American League teams in Detroit, Texas and Los Angeles and will face another tonight in Baltimore. The Orioles are 6th in the Majors in team batting average, while Seattle is 22nd. Note that Baltimore has won 9 of their last 13 games overall, and are 4-0 in Chen's last 4 starts as a favorite between -110 to -150. Baltimore is 9-1 in their last 10 meetings with Seattle and 6-1 in their last 7 in Seattle. Chen is pitching great right now and not getting enough credit here and I will happily take the line we are getting on the Orioles tonight vs a struggling starting pitcher.Comment

Wednesday NBA & MLB
Celtics +9 over Knicks
The Knicks are the better team in this series, but expecting them to win by double digits is a little shocking to me. JR Smith didn't play in Game 4 and on top of that he had to open his big mouth. Talking trash when you are up 3-1 against a veteran team is stupid. The Knicks have not been in this situation before. As good as they might have been this year this is uncharted waters for New York. It is not easy to get that close out win in a series especially with a unit that has never won a playoff series playing together. KG and Pierce are past their prime, but have the experience in games like this and that goes a very long way. This is a generous spread. Take Boston.
Red Sox -135 over Blue Jays
Buchholz/Buehrle
Last night the Red Sox did everything they could to lose the game. Boston had base running miscues and they allowed Toronto runs without swinging the bat and the walk allowed the Blue Jays to really put it to Boston late in the game. Clay Buchholz is striking batters out this year and there is no better pitcher in 2013. I don't see the Blue Jays getting easy runs tonight and expect Boston to get back on track. Take the Red Sox.Comment

BOSTON GM5 vs NEW YORK GM5BOSTON GM5
+9-110 at BMaker15* Celtics/Knicks TNT Early ANNIHILATOR on Boston +9
After falling behind 3-0, the Boston Celtics could have easily quit. Instead, they scratched out a hard-fought overtime victory in Game 4, and they're certainly not about to pack it in now.
Boston will be motivated by J.R. Smith's comments in which he said if he played in Game 4, this series would have been over. The Celtics want to prove that that's not the case, and I believe Smith made a big mistake by opening his mouth about it whether he believes it or not.
New York is 1-8 ATS in home games revenging a straight up loss vs opponent as a favorite this season. The Knicks are 2-11 ATS when playing 5 or less games in 14 days over the last 2 seasons. The Celtics are 19-9 ATS in the last 28 meetings in New York. Take Boston Wednesday.-= TOP PLAY =-NBA | May 01 '13 (8:05p)
ATLANTA GM5 vs INDIANA GM5INDIANA GM5
-7-105 at 5dimes15* Hawks/Pacers NBA TV No-Brainer on Indiana -7
Home-court advantage has simply been huge in this series between Indiana and Atlanta. The home team is 4-0 SU & 4-0 ATS in four meetings, winning by double-digits each time. I look for that trend to continue in Game 5 Wednesday.
The home team has now won eight straight meetings between these teams dating back to the regular season. Indiana is 32-11 at home this season where it is outscoring its opponents by an average of 8.1 points/game.
Atlanta is 10-26 ATS in its last 36 playoff road games. The Hawks are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game. The Pacers are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game.
The home team is 21-7 ATS in the last 28 meetings. The favorite is 23-6 ATS in the last 29 meetings. Roll with the Pacers Wednesday.

HOUSTON GM5 vs OKLAHOMA CITY GM5HOUSTON GM5
+8½-108 at 5dimes20* Rockets/Thunder TNT Late-Night BAILOUT on Houston +8.5
The books have missed the mark badly on this Game 5 between the Houston Rockets and Oklahoma City Thunder. The last three games in this series have been decided by a total of 8 points, which is less than tonight's spread of 8.5.
I'll gladly take advantage and back the Rockets, who are playing with nothing to lose the rest of the way after everyone counted them out down 3-0. The fact of the matter is that Houston could be the team up 3-1 right now had a couple more breaks gone their way.
Oklahoma City has no business being this heavily favored without Russell Westbrook. It is not nearly as dynamic without him, which will make it hard for the Thunder to cover this inflated number tonight even if they do win.
The Rockets are 102-64 ATS in road games after having lost 4 or 5 of their last 6 games since 1996. Houston is 21-9 ATS versus good 3 point shooting teams - making >=36% of their attempts this season. Bet the Rockets Wednesday.[ back to top ]MLB Baseball Premium Picks

Philadelphia Phillies vs Cleveland IndiansPhiladelphia Phillies
-130 at BetOnline15* MLB Wednesday No-Doubt Rout on Philadelphia Phillies -130
Cliff Lee has been one of the best starters in the entire league this season. That's nothing new considering he's been one of the best ever since winning the Cy Young a few years back. I'll gladly back him at this price against the Cleveland Indians tonight.
Philadelphia has a massive edge on the mound with Lee over Cleveland rookie Trevor Bauer. Lee is 2-1 with a 3.03 ERA and 1.037 WHIP in five starts this season, including 1-0 with a 1.20 ERA and 0.533 WHIP in two road starts.
Bauer will be making just his second start of the season. His first did not go too well as he allowed 3 earned runs and 9 base runners (7 walks) in a 0-6 loss at Tampa Bay on April 6th. He clearly showed some nerves walking 7 batters in the loss.
The Phillies are embarrassed from their 14-2 loss last night and they want to get revenge tonight. Philadelphia is 10-1 (+10.2 Units) against the money line in road games after allowing 8 runs or more over the last 2 seasons. Cleveland is 1-11 (-10.2 Units) against the money line after 2 straight games where they stranded 5 or less runners on base over the last 2 seasons. Take the Phillies Wednesday.MLB | May 01 '13 (7:10p)
Washington Nationals vs Atlanta BravesWashington Nationals
+108 at BetOnline15* MLB Wednesday Undervalued Underdog on Washington Nationals +108
The Washington Nationals are highly motivated for a victory over the Atlanta Braves tonight. They have lost nine straight in this series dating back to last season, and they DO NOT want the streak to reach double-digits tonight.
I like the Nationals' chances of putting an end to the skid considering the huge edge they have on the mound in this one. Jordan Zimmerman is one of the most underrated starters in the league, going 4-1 with a 2.00 ERA and 0.861 WHIP in five starts this season.
Zimmerman is 2-1 with a 3.81 ERA in five career starts against Atlanta, while Paul Maholm is 2-6 with a 4.91 ERA in 11 career starts against Washington. Maholm is also 0-2 with a 10.24 ERA in his last two starts, allowing 11 earned runs in 9 2/3 innings.
Zimmerman is 14-2 (+10.9 Units) against the money line after giving up <=2 earned runs in his last 2 outings over the last 2 seasons. Zimmerman is 20-5 (+14.9 Units) against the money line in night games over the last 2 seasons. Bet the Nationals Wednesday.Comment

Wunderdog Sports Free Pick
Game: Atlanta at Indiana (8:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: Indiana -7 (-110)
The Atlanta Hawks were down 2-0 in their series vs. the Pacers did what they needed to do, and that was win both games at home to get back into this series. The Pacers have had no success in Atlanta, where they have now lost 13 in a row, and their play on the road this season has been sporadic at best, especially against the better teams. Home has been a different story, and we have seen that play out in the first two games of this series, where Indiana won both games by 15 or more points. This series has long been home, and favorite-dominated, with the favorite now 23-6 ATS in the last 29 meetings. Atlanta has also had trouble producing consistent offense, and it has led them to an 0-5 ATS mark following a game where they reached the century mark. That is something that the defensive-minded Pacers have been good at, as they are 11-5 ATS after allowing 100+ in their previous game in their last 16 occurrences. Take Indiana.Comment
