As it currently stands, this Colorado bet does not pass the worst road record filter which states: “Do not bet on a team whose road record winning percentage is in the bottom 10% in the league if they are playing on the road.”
Game: St. Louis Cardinals @ Baltimore Orioles
Time: Saturday 08/09 4:05 PM Eastern
Pick: Game Total UNDER 8.5 (-110) at Bookmaker
The St. Louis Cardinals fortified their rotation by acquiring Jon Lackey from the Boston Red Sox prior to the trade deadline. Lackey has had a very solid campaign where he owns a 12-7 record backed by a 3.55 ERA. Lackey has allowed 3 runs or fewer in 14 of his last 18 starts, and has done so in each of his last four starts. The Cardinals will face Ubaldo Jimenez, who has not had a great year, but St. Louis has had a punchless attack all season, especially on the road where they generate 3.5 runs per game. They have been further inhibited on the road when facing a right-hander, where 8 of their last 10 have failed to get to the total. The Orioles own a 12-3 mark to the UNDER in their last 15 vs. a winning team, and are 21-8-1 to the UNDER in their last 30 at home. Don't expect this one to get there, so make play the UNDER.
Coming off a preseason winner last night on the Bills, tonight we’ll go against the Lions and their new head coach Jim Caldwell. We were excited when Detroit made this hire because it will present some golden opportunities to go against Caldwell, who is a horrible head coach and someone we have made big money going against dating way back to when he was walking the sidelines at Wake Forest. In his time as the head man with the Colts, Caldwell was a dismal 2-10 in the preseason, so that gives you an idea of how much he cares about games in August. Starting QB Matthew Stafford will get very few reps tonight and the cupboard of talent behind him is bare, with guys like Dan Orlovsky, Kellen Moore and undrafted rookie James Franklin. Compare that to the Browns’ QB rotation that will feature Brian Hoyer and Johnny Manziel, battling for the starting job, followed by Tyler Thigpen, who while not very talented has 11 NFL starts to his credit. Caldwell tanks again. Take the Brownies
The Royals are simply the hottest team in baseball right now and send their ace, James Shields to the mound tonight as they face off with Tim Hudson and the San Francisco Giants. The Royals have posted a 13-3 record since the All Star break and Shields has been a big part of the success. He is 2-2 with a 1.99 ERA over his last six starts. Even though Hudson can be tough, we are riding the hot team in this spot. The Sharps say...
5* Play on St. Louis. John Lackey is now a National League pitcher, but he knows this Baltimore Orioles lineup well from his time with the Red Sox and we'll back him against a tough-luck home pitcher in Ubaldo Jimenez and the O's today. Jimenez for whatever reason is far better away from home this season, as he's just 1-6 with with 2-7 TSR and 5.30 ERA in his nine home outings.
Lackey has had success against Baltimore in his career, going 14-7 with a decent 3.70 ERA in 26 career meetings. He's also in good form right now going at least six innings and allowing 2 ER's or less in each of his last four games. With Baltimore crushing the Cards last night we look for St. Louis to come to the ballpark with a bit more motivation than normal, and control this one from the outset! 5* Play on St. Louis.
LAS VEGAS -- The Kansas City Royals are the hottest team in baseball, riding a five-game winning streak, which matches their second-best streak of the season. Tonight they'll try to keep the roll going behind James Shields, who is a -138 favorite over the visiting San Francisco Giants and Tim Hudson.
After beating the Giants 4-2 last night, the Royals (61-53) have now won 13 of their last 16 games to take over the second AL wild card spot as well as pull them within 2.5 games of AL Central leading Detroit.
This was a team that lost their first four games after the All-Star break and were about to be written off as a contender. They battled back in a similar fashion from early June when they won 10 in a row. After briefly taking over first-place in the Central, they proceeded to lose four straight and seven of nine and it looked like they were done.
But here they are again making a run, perhaps learning from the June swoon, and have been dropped from 50-to-1 down to 40-to-1 in odds to win the World Series at the LVH SuperBook.
Can they sustain the run and really make a charge at Detroit for the AL Central crown? Sure why not? But making the World Series for the first time since 1985 -- also their last playoff appearance -- seems like a tall task. I'll root for them to get there, though. They would be the story of the playoffs if they make it.
The real question is 'can they win tonight'? Absolutely! One of the best things about betting baseball is riding the streaks. It's almost as important as who is pitching for each squad. A streaking team does all the little things right and seems to get base hits off of choppers and flares, while a team slumping has everything go against them.
Last night is the perfect example of a slumping team not getting the breaks. The Giants, losers of three of their last four and 10 of their past 15, had countless scoring opportunities with 12 hits in the game, but only plated two runs and lost again.
Tim Hudson (8-8, 2.74 ERA) had a great first half of the season, but San Francisco has lost six of his last nine starts and he's recorded only one win while taking six losses over that span. He's only been really bad in two of those starts, while allowing three runs or fewer in six others. However, between the bats routinely failing him and not getting the breaks, going against Hudson lately has been the winning move.
Kansas City's James Shields (10-6, 3.43) has almost the same type of numbers as Hudson over his last nine starts, but he's the one who started their current five-game win streak with an outstanding pitching performance at Oakland on Sunday, a 4-2 win where he allowed only four hits and two runs over eight innings to win the series. They haven't lost since. Keep riding the streak.
