Re: 6-5-09

EXPERT: Matt FARGO
TITLE: **9** MLB DARK HORSE DANDY ***62.5% YTD***
REASON FOR PICK: **9** MLB DARK HORSE DANDY ***62.5% YTD*** Yovani Gallardo has been solid following a tough outing in Houston as he has allowed just one combined run over his last two starts covering 13.1 innings. He has been the victim of two bad starts on the year and after hat, everything has been great. Taking those two games away and his ERA drops from an already solid 3.18 to a minuscule 1.64 in his other eight starts. Overall, the Brewers are 7-3 in his 10 starts and Atlanta is only 15-18 against right-handed starters on the season. Jair Jurrjens counters for Atlanta and he is having a very solid season as well. He is however coming off his worst start of the season and it is hard to tell how he will react to that. Last season, he put together poor back-to-back starts on several occasions so we could see that again. He had allowed two runs or fewer in nine of his first 10 starts before giving up five runs in five innings against the Diamondbacks on Friday. On the road this year he has been spectacular with a 1.08 WHIP but at home, his WHIP is 1.44 and that is very below average. 9* Milwaukee Brewers

Scott Delaney
Scott Delaney Friday ... 100 DIME ST. LOUIS CARDINALS RUN LINE (WITH Wainwright and De La Rosa) - Colorado was a huge underdog winner last night, snapping a four-game skid with a 10-3 shellacking of the Astros. Back to the losing, as this team has still lost seven of its last 10. And now it takes on a pitcher that has a strong 2.70 ERA at Busch Stadium, and who has pitched quite well over his last five starts.

Though he’s posted a 2-2 mark in those games, thrice he’s given up just one earned run, while he’s lasted a minimum of six innings in them all. In fact, his durable has been a strong point for the Cardinals, as he’s lasted at least six frames – the minimum to earn a quality start – in nine straight starts. He’s taken on the Cubbies three times, Milwaukee twice and the Phillies once, so he’s seen some decent lineups.

The Rockies are a far cry from those teams, despite hosting games in hitter-friendly Coors Field, as they rank 24th in the league in hitting – 11th in the National League. And I don’t see them standing a chance against St. Louis’ tall right-hander who pitches downhill with a running fastball that reaches 93 miles per hour and a nasty curveball he can change the break on with ease. He has great command of his pitches, and pitches with more confidence when it comes to his off-speed junk.

Sorry, but this is a major pitching mismatch, as Colorado’s Jorge De La Rosa is 0-6 this season with a 5.43 ERA. His biggest problem is handling in-game adversity. And in having to pitch inside Busch, against a potent lineup, I think he’ll make one too many mistakes tonight. Lay the Run Line.

15* on Texas Rangers +126

The Red Sox have been tough at home, but I'll take the Rangers tonight in Fenway with Kevin Millwood on the mound. So far this season Millwood is 4-4 with a 3.23 ERA and a 1.23 WHIP. Brad Penny takes the mound for the Red Sox, and while he has improved over his last three starts, he still has a 5.63 ERA and a 1.60 WHIP this season, including a 6.14 ERA and a 1.73 WHIP in Boston. The Rangers are scoring 5.4 runs per game, just a slight advantage over the Red Sox, and behind a strong outing from Millwood I think they take the first game of this series in Boston.

NY Mets +1.13 over WASHINGTON PINNACLE

The Nationals are 4-20 over its last 24 games, 3-11 over its last 14 home games, they were swept at home yesterday by the Giants and they’re what, about 20 games out in the first week of June. Very nice team. Now, after hanging around the park yesterday for about 14 hours or more and losing twice, they’re right back at it and if, as the players say, baseball is 90% mental, then the Nats should be in an asylum any time now. This Washington team has to be feeling almost embarrassed and being at home in front of tiny crowds can’t help their psyche much either. Not only are they losing but they’ve stopped scoring runs now too, as they’ve scored two runs or less in five of its last nine contests. You think they feel like playing baseball? I think not, as this is a group of players that are so mentally damaged right now that laying juice with them is very likely to be detrimental to your bankroll. The Mets have to be feeling rather excited about coming here. Does it matter who’s pitching? Play: NY Mets +1.13 (Risking 2 units).

Milwaukee +1.03 over ATLANTA PINNACLE

You’ll have to excuse me, as I crap in my pants over the Braves picking up Nate McClouth from the Pirates. Yeah, McClouth is a decent player but the media is making him out to be the second coming of Chipper Jones, when in fact, he is not. McClouth is hitting .256 this year and he’s a .262 career hitter. He does have power and he’s a damn good centerfielder but if you think he’s going to turn this offensively challenged offense into a feared one, think again. What I do know is that Yollandi Gallardo is a monster out there and when he pitches the Brewers usually win. He’s coming off a short outing in which he went 5.2 innings against the Reds and threw just 97 pitches. He came out early because the Brewers had the lead and prior to that he shut out the Cardinals in eight innings in a 1-0 win in which he threw 127 pitches. The Brewers are 7-3 when he starts and he ranks among the league leaders in every key pitching category. The Braves will send out the always-tough Jair Jurrjens but when comparing the two, Gallardo is still more dangerous and by the way, so is the Brewers offense. Play: Milwaukee +1.03 (Risking 2 units).

Philadelphia +1.27 over LOS ANGELES PINNACLE

Pretty easy pulling the trigger on the red-hot Phillies right now, especially at this price and against this pitcher. The Phillies have won seven in a row and 16 of its last 20 games. Wow. They came in here last night and beat the Dodgers 3-0 and have now beaten L.A. in 10 of their last 13 match-ups. Furthermore, the Dodgers are laboring at the plate right now, having scored two runs or less in six of its last eight games. That includes one run against Jon Garland, two against Billy Buckner and one against Ted Lilly. Eric Milton goes for the Dodgers and although he’s pitched well, don’t be fooled. This guy has been off for 1½-years and picked up his first win in three years two starts ago. He was a below average pitcher before his layoff and he’s no better now. Anyway, the Phillies are feeling it right now and it’s rarely bad strategy playing on a scorching hot team. Play: Philadelphia +1.27 (Risking 2 units).

Colorado Rockies vs St Louis Cardinals
St Louis Cardinals -1½+121 at 5dimes
20* No-Brainer on St. Louis Cardinals -1.5 +121

I'm taking the Cardinals over the Rockies on Friday night. St. Louis is fighting to stay on pace with the Milwaukee Brewers in the NL Central and they have one of their most consistent pitchers on the mound tonight in Adam Wainwright. Wainwright is 5-3 for the Cardinals on the season with a 3.37 ERA and a 1.31 WHIP in 11 starts. Jorge De La Rosa starts for the Rockies and he's hit a very rough patch over his last 3 starts. Over that span he is 0-3 with a 13.50 ERA and a 2.33 WHIP. The brings De La Rosa to 0-6 on the season and raises his overall ERA to 5.43. Add that to the fact that the Rockies are 12-18 on the road this year while the Cards are 19-11 and we have an easy play on St. Louis. Take the run line for a great value here.

1000* - Oakland w/Braden over Guthrie,

500* - Texas w/Millwood over Penny The A's have to be feeling good as they come back home from the Windy City, fresh off a sweep of the Pale Hose, as Oakland has now won 4 of their last 5, and will be hosting a Baltimore team that is a putrid 8-17 away from Camden Yards.

Lay the small home wood with Dallas Braden, as the southpaw looks to even his season mark at 5-5. Braden is 1-0 over his last 3 starts, and all 3 have been "quality", so you can expect him to hold the Baltimore bats in check in this one.

Jeremy Guthrie has struggled on the road this season, going just 1-2 with an ERA of 6.57. Then there is the fact that the A's won ALL 5 off the O's just a season ago.

Have to back Oakland in the opener this evening at the Coliseum.

1000? - Oakland w/Braden over Guthrie

??Note: Both listed pitchers must start, or no action on the play!??

Let's grab the take back cash with Kevin Millwood over Brad Penny tonight at Fenway.

No doubt the Red Sox are tough at home - 17-6 at Fenway, and no doubt Brad Penny does somehow sport a 5-1 record this season, but Penny's ERA is 5.63 this season, and at home it is over 6!

Texas just dropped 2 of 3 to the Yankees, and will be in a prickly mood tonight when they step in against the hitable Brad Penny.

Look for the Rangers to outslug the Sox in their home park tonight.

Kevin Millwood's season ERA is just a tick over 3, so I expect him to limit the damage the Red Sox can inflict, and let his team's bats take over against Penny.

Texas plus money is the call here.

500? - Texas w/Penny over Millwood

??Note: Both listed pitchers must start, or no action on the play!??
