RECOMMENDED CHOICES
The Walker Group Picks

# 10 I AM THE KING 5/2

# 8 DRAGO'S BEST 7/2

# 1 MY FRIEND DAVID 9/2

My pick in this contest is I AM THE KING. Could provide positive gains based on very strong recent Speed Figures with an average of 74. This gelding obviously likes the distance, going 3 - 18 in his races recently. Posted a solid speed rating last time out. DRAGO'S BEST - He has been running solidly lately while recording strong speed figures. Paucar has been hot the last month, winning at a nifty 18 percent rate. MY FRIEND DAVID - Must be given consideration based on the very strong speed fig garnered in the last race. I would give my vote to this colt on the jockey and conditioner numbers alone.

#3 ABANDONED (ML=2/1)
#4 TALK TO THE MEDIA (ML=4/1)


ABANDONED - Early speed is always important in horse racing, but the lone speed horse is always dangerous. This speedy sort is shortening up today. Should increase his chances of winning. Trainer Sharp moves this animal down in class ranks to face a lower level today. Look for a sharp effort this time out. TALK TO THE MEDIA - This gelding is rounding his way back into shape. Should run well today. Criollo brings him back again. I propose you stay with this hot gelding. Quite frequently, I play a maiden that finished runner up easily ahead of the 3rd place finisher in his last contest. Recent speed figs show solid pattern of improvement.

Vulnerable Contenders: #2 DIAMOND LUCKIE (ML=9/5), #9 LITTLE RED AMIGO (ML=6/1),

DIAMOND LUCKIE - This less than sharp equine will probably need at least one more start after the lackluster showing following the extended vacation. No good results for this steed in a short distance event over the last two months tells me that this colt is in a tough situation hard to wager on at 9/5 odds after the two most recent showings. LITTLE RED AMIGO - 6/1 is too low of a price to take on this thoroughbred.

Top HatGUEST COMMENTARY: Winston - TALK TO THE MEDIA - This gelding is number one in the field in earnings per start. I'm making a wager on this one.

Tuesday freebie is the Under in the Marlins-Phillies first game of two from Citizens Bank Ball Park.

Miami has played 3 of their last 4 games Under the posted price, and they will go with Dan Straily in the first of two today. Straily has allowed no more than 3 runs in any of his last 4 starts, although he did surrender 4 to the Phils back on July 19th in a game that played Over the total.

Aaron Nola had his worst start in a long time last time out, as he allowed 5 to the Giants in San Francisco. Prior to that start, Nola had allowed 2 runs or less in 10 straight starts.

With the prospect of it being a long night tonight, look for the first game to be a little bit quicker paced and see the pitchers roll through the line up.

Under in Game One.

Now about this complimentary winner

My free winner for Tuesday is going to be the Chicago Cubs over the Cinncinati Reds, and since the line is too high to play straight, I'm taking the champs on the Run Line.

Since every MLB wager on a run line or total auto-lists pitchers, I want you to be sure the two pitchers on your ticket, when making this play, are John Lackey and Homer Bailey. If they are not the pitchers of record when making your play, disregard this play.

I won't get into this much, as it's just a comp pick, and I shouldn't be spending as much time on this game as I already have, but Lackey is superior pitcher and I've never been a fan of Bailey.

Lackey has a 3.06 ERA in six starts since the break, while Bailey just faced Chicago and looked horrific with his lack of command, walking five in 5.2 innings and allowing a grand slam in the first inning.

All Chicago here.

5* CUBS (Lackey over Bailey)

My free play for Tuesday night is on the St. Louis Cardinals on the Run Line, over the San Diego Padres.

MAKE NOTE: All Run Line/Total plays automatically list pitchers with the starters who are scheduled to go at the time of the wager, and I want you to be sure the following pitchers are the starters of record on your ticket when making your play: Clayton Richard and Lance Lynn. If one or both of these pitchers is not going, this is a no-play.

Let's start with Richard, who I know is stepping to the hill after firing his third career complete game last Wednesday against the Phillies, but is now facing the surging Redbirds, who are 3 1/2 games behind the first-place Chicago Cubs in the National League Central, and 4 1/2 games behind the Arizona Diamondbacks for the NL's second wild-card spot.

Wins are a must right now, especially against teams like the Padres, who just scored a mere six runs while losing three of four to Washington over the weekend.

That offense is in trouble against Lynn, who has been the team’s most reliable arm lately, and steps to the rubber with a 1.65 ERA in nine starts since the beginning of July. Lynn has allowed two or fewer earned runs in each of those outings, and will be stellar today.

All Cards.

4* CARDINALS RUN LINE (Lynn over Richard)

Tuesday's comp play is the White Sox over the Twins.

The teams split a pair yesterday, and while the Twins have been red-hot and are now holding down the second A.L. Wild Card spot, I think Chicago's Lucas Giolito will have a bang-up debut for the Pale Hose.

Giolito was the center piece in last season's trade with Washington for Adam Eaton, and now he will make his debut for Chicago.

Paul Gibson will oppose and he has lost 4 of his last 5 starts, and could only last 4 innings in his last start. Gibson's season ERA is over 6, so look for the Sox to play some loose baseball tonight, as they give Giolito some support and make his Chicago debut a night to remember.

White Sox with the Tuesday win.

3* WHITE SOX

Eric Schroeder

My free play is on the Atlanta Braves over the Seatlle Mariners, in Interleague play. And be sure to list the scheduled starting pitchers: Lucas Sims and Marco Gonzales.

Sims steps to the hill after an effective five-inning effort against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field, which resulted in his first win. I like the right-hander tonight, as he looks to continue to prove he has belonged in this rotation, and can do so by neutralizing the Mariners with his steadily improving curveball.

Gonzales, meanwhile, hasn’t lasted through the fifth inning of any of his three starts since joining the rotation in place of Felix Hernandez. Baltimore stroked nine hits off the southpaw, over 4.1 innings, in his last trip to the hill.

Take Atlanta tonight, and list both.

The Marlins are worth a look here in game 2 of the doubleheader here. Miami has been pretty solid as of late winning 7 of their last 9 games. They send out Urena who is a perfect 7-0 on the road this season. He also enters this game in great form with a 2.20 ERA his last 3 starts.

The Phillies counter with Pivetta who has a 6.05 ERA on the season and is just 4-8. His recent form is just terrible with a 10.21 ERA his last three starts.

Free Pick on Cubs -

Chicago scored 3-runs in the bottom of the 10th on Sunday to win 6-5 and finish off a 3-game sweep of the Blue Jays. The Cubs have won 6 of 8 overall and I look for them to keep it rolling in the series opener against the Reds on Tuesday. Chicago got a much-needed day off yesterday and are a strong 8-2 in their last 10 after an off day.

Cubs will send out John Lackey, who might be their worst starter, but he's still a strong option for a No. 5 starter. Lackey has 10-wins on the season and has been much better of late. He's got a 3.31 ERA in his last 3 starts and has gone 7 straight outings allowing 3 runs or less (all 7 have been Cubs wins). Reds counter here with Homer Bailey, who is 4-6 with a 8.44 ERA and 2.043 WHIP in 11 starts. He's made 4 home starts and has a miserable 14.33 ERA and 2.572 WHIP (Reds 0-4). His last outing was at the Cubs, where he gave up 6 runs on 7 hits and 5 walks.

It's also worth noting that in the Reds last game they managed just 1 runs in a 7-run loss to the Braves. Cincinnati is a mere 1-11 this season after scoring 1 run or fewer in their last game. Reds are also 4-12 in their last 16 vs a team with a winning record and 3-11 in Bailey's last 14 starts against a division opponent. Cubs are 20-7 in their last 27 against a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30. Take Chicago!
