Ron Raymond | NHL Money Line
PIT (+125) vs 8 PHI triple-dime bet
Analysis:

Keys to selection: The Penguins got caught looki~ng ahead to tonight’s game against the Flyers, as they lost 3-0 to Phoenix and Fleury is expected to get the start tonight and he’s 15-6 SU vs. the Flyers. Make no mistake about this game, it’s a division game and it’s the Battle of Pennsylvania, emotions will be high, which means tons of power plays for both teams.



Ron’s Prediction: Pittsburgh 5 Philadelphia 3

Triple-dime bet

303 Nebraska -3.0 vs 304 Missouri

Analysis: What a week! First I have to go against the Packers against the rival Vikings and now this. My hometown Mizzou Tigers prepare to do battle with Big 12 North rival Nebraska. The last couple of season's have belonged entirely to Gary Pinkel's Tigers as they have dominated the Huskers, totally. Last year they even went into Lincoln and prevailed for the first time since 1978, I can say I was in attendance for both. I was hoping maybe to catch some points here but I tip my hat to the oddsmakers here as I honestly feel they have the right squad favored despite the fact the game is in Columbia. This is a cocky Tiger team that is feeling a bit too full of themselves considering what they have actually gotten done thus far. They are a very suspect team to be sporting a 4-0 record. We can now see the opening win over Illinois was not as impressive as it seemed at the time, then a struggle to defeat Bowling Green in Columbia, a glorified scrimmage against Furman and a real grind to get past a mediocre Nevada team at best. Now this team has an athletic and rugged Husker team coming to town absolutely hell bent on revenge after last seasons prime time humiliation and beat down in Lincoln. I predict the Huskers will control the line of scrimmage here and if Quarterback Zac Lee can play smart and protect the ball the Huskers will prevail. I firmly believe they are truly the stronger of the two teams. They have been road tested this season in a alley fight at Virginia Tech and that should benefit them here. I'm a Tiger guy through and through but just like with the Vikings monday night I refuse to factor emotions into a release. In the past I have always known when to go with them and against, I have to side with the Huskers here.

Playoff Special - Red Sox/Angels
Boston Red Sox (Lester)-105 over LOS ANGELES ANGELS(Lackey)

4* #961 BOSTON over ANGELS

Watching the line drop on this one is almost like viewing the October temperatures, with steady Angel action reducing this to where -105 has now become available, and perhaps something even better over the course of the day. With the Red Sox having edges with Jon Lester over John Lackey, and even bigger edges when the bullpens come into play, that makes this impossible to pass up. Lester is an under-valued item here. As impressive as his 15-8/3.41 looks, with the Red Sox going 22-10 in his 32 starts, he brings much more to the table. Of the 101 pitchers that worked at least 125 innings this season his difficulty of batters faced checks in at #14, which makes those base numbers bolder. But even more so is that he opened the season at 3-5/6.07 before getting his mechanics in order. Since then it has been a 12-3/2.31 over the last 22 starts, with the Red Sox going 17-5 in that span, and in 12 of those 22 games he allowed one earned run or none. A legitimate case can be made that there was not a better pitcher in the A.L. in that span. Now he brings some particular matchup advantages against the Angels. He held them without an earned run over 14 innings in the playoffs LY, with more strikeouts than hits allowed, and since the Angels have not faced him since then there is a lack of familiarity from this lineup that puts them on their heels again. And while this offense was third in the A.L. in stolen bases, with the Red Sox extremely weak throwing out base-runners, Lester only allowed 19 steals over 203.1 innings. That takes away a big part of the Angel attack. Meanwhile John Lackey was nothing special this season, working to a 3.83 as the team behind him went just 14-13 over 27 starts. He does not bring any particular form to the table, with an ugly 8.31 over his last three starts that includes an alarming count of 21 hits vs. only eight strikeouts. And he faces difficulties throughout the Boston lineup, particularly Victor Martinez (.476 over 21 at-bats), Dustin Pedroia (.375 over 16), David Ortiz (.333 with two home runs and 10 rbi?s in 33), Kevin Youkilis (.294, but with two home runs and four rbi?s in just 17 at-bats). His presence on the mound also leads to an offensive downgrade for the Angels, with the weaker bat of Jeff Mathis (.211-5-28) replacing the punch of Mike Napoli (.272-20-56) But all the Lester/Lackey matchup does is set the table for where the real edges are here, and that is in the latter stages, where the bullpen mismatch is major. The Red Sox are loaded with both quality and depth, leaving Terry Francona with multiple options from both sides of the mound. For the Angels it is a different story, with a mediocre group of set-up men, and the inconsistency of closer Bryan Fuentes providing season-long issues. It is during those pressure late-game moments that Boston takes this one over, particularly as confidence issues come into play ? the Red Sox are 9-1 against the Angels in the post-season since 2004, having trailed in only 7.5 of the 94 innings. And note that those were games when Mike Scioscia had Francisco Rodriguez available in the bullpen. He just

Re: 10-8-09

4 Unit Play. Take Under between the St. Louis Cardinals vs. LA Dodgers (6pm). Both of these should be a great game. I like the Under between these two teams as Wainwright has a great shot at being the National League MVP. He comes off a rough start in his last effort and prior to that he had continued to be one of the best pitchers in the league. Wainwright has a 2.63 era and nearly posted his 20th win of the year. The last time he faced the Dodgers, Wainwright went seven strong innings and gave up just two runs en route to helping his team win 3-2. Plus, the Cardinals come off a 3-5 loss so that is even more reason why the Cards will be depending on Wainwright to step up today. Clayton Kershaw struggled in his last effort against the Cardinals and I expect him to bounce-back a bit at home today. Joe Torre has obviously shown a great deal of trust in him to start him this evening. The Southpaw has put together a great season as he has a 2.79 era and I suspect he too will have a strong effort after falling a bit short against the Cardinals at home last time out. In short, I expect this game to be a pitcher's duel this evening. The Under is 9-3 when the Cardinals face a lefty of late and the Under is 6-1 in Kershaw's last seven starts overall. The Under is also 4-0 in Kershaw's last four starts against the Cardinals overall as well.

4 Unit Play. #961. Take Boston Redsox -110 over the LA Angels (9:35pm est). I understand that the Redsox are facing John Lackey on the road. But, I also understand that Jon Lester has been one of the best if not the best pitcher in the second half of the season in the American League. Lester went 12-3 with a 2.31era in his final 22 starts which is simply remarkable. On top of that, he has not faced the Angels this year which is to his advantage as they have not had a chance to be familiar with his pitches. On the other hand, the Resox have faced Lackey plenty of times and have had success against him as well. Lackey is 3-7 with a 5.25 era in fourteen regular season starts against the Redsox and he is 0-2 with a 3.66era in the playoffs against them as well. Plus, Lackey comes into this game 0-3 with a 4era over his last six starts as well. The Redsox need to pick a game off on the road at some point and I think they will look to strike early with Lackey on the mound today. The Redsox are 4-0 when Lester starts with the current total set at this range and the Angels are 1-10 in their last 11 playoff games.

Good luck,
IC
