6* Playoff Special - Red Sox/Angels

LOS ANGELES ANGELS(Weaver)-110 over Boston Red Sox (Beckett)

6* #304 ANGELS over BOSTON

Rarely does a single game in professional sports have as much of a psychological impact of the opener of this series last night, with the Angels getting the kind of convincing win over an opponent that had been a nightmare for them in recent playoff series. And in doing so they also overcame what is their toughest pitching matchup against the Red Sox. Now we believe we will see a loose and confident team tonight, and with the pitching matchups also swinging in a major way we have outstanding value to get in play big. Here is how Chone Figgins referenced last night?s win - ?Whatever the hex is, I guess somebody un-hexed it ? It was huge.? And that sentiment reverberated through the Angel clubhouse, creating something that they can build off of here. Meanwhile the Red Sox fell to 39-43 away from Fenway Park, and added another ?L? to a dismal 3-13 on the road against winning teams since the All Star break, games in which they were out-scored by a combined 42 runs. They only had four hits, all singles, and three different players committed errors. They appear to be anything but that confident champion of past seasons. That takes us to Jered Weaver vs. Josh Beckett, and that is where the current pick?em ling range is even further from where it should be. Weaver has worked to a sparkling 27-12/3.27 from this mound in his Major League career, and in five home starts against the Red Sox it has been a 1.76 over 30.2 innings. And it is not as though they are learning how to handle him as they get more experience vs. his awkward delivery ? in two meetings this season they did not score an earned run in 13.2 innings, managing only eight hits. Off of a sharp 2.27 over his last seven starts, including five shutout inning in his final tuneup in which he did not walk a batter and allowed only three hits, his form is right where we would like to see it. It has been a different story for Beckett, who has had to battle back problems, and was nothing special at all away from Fenway this season (7-5/4.13). The Angels have relished facing him the past two seasons, five starts in which he has worked to an 0-3/6.12 tune, allowing five home runs in 32.1 innings. And there is nothing in his current form to suggest that he can turn that around. Following a dismal cycle in which he allowed 14 home runs over five starts back in August there were a couple of brief glimpses of better stuff, but in his last two starts he allowed the feeble Royals and Indians to get 19 hits over just 11 frames. He and the Red Sox do not bring nearly what past reputations suggest, and we take full advantage in this price range.

1-Unit Play. Take 'Under' 10.0 Minnesota at N.Y. Yankees (6 p.m., Friday, Oct. 10)
You can't feel too confident about having Nick Blackburn on the mound heading into today's game. The Yankees smell blood and I think that they are going to attack a team with a lot of heart but not enough cannons. I think that A.J. Burnett is going to be really, really good tonight. The most dangerous Twins hitters are Mauer and Kubel, who are both lefties. But the Yankees aren't going to pitch to Mauer anyway. So as long as Burnett stays away from Kubel he should be able to do work on the rest of the lineup. Chuckles Meriwether is behind the dish today and he has had a very liberal strike zone all season long. And that's a key thing with Burnett. The guy is kind of a head case and he really start to unravel when he's being squeezed. He isn't going to be getting squeezed today so that should allow his breaking stuff to really overwhelm the righties in the Twins lineup. Minnesota is going to score. They will run and they will score today. But it won't be enough. Blackburn's ERA is about a run higher on the road than at home in his career and this guy just doesn't win away from the Metrodome. The lefty-heavy Yanks lineup should have a field day with him. It's going to be a little wet and a little colder at The Stadium today, which should help Blackburn out early. But over the course of eight at-bats the Yankees are going to jump on the Twins. I think 6-2 or 6-3 sounds about right.

1-Unit Play. Take Boston (-105) over L.A. Angels (9:30 p.m., Friday, Oct. 10)
It was kind of a worst case scenario for Boston last night, as terrible calls by the umps all over the diamond really took the wind out of their sails. I think that the Angels win in Game 1 really woke them up and I think that tonight's game is going to be a dogfight. But in that instance I will definitely take Josh Beckett, who is a known big game bulldog. Also, this could be a game in which that Angels bullpen implodes if Weaver can't make it through seven. Angels are charged up. But this is an exceptional Boston team and they aren't going to get shut out again tonight.

BOBBY MAXWELL Free play
I delivered my third straight FREE winner on Thursday as the Dodgers got the win in Game 2 of their series with the Cardinals. For a fourth straight comp winner, I'm on the college gridiron with a play on Nevada as the Wolf Pack host Louisiana Tech in WAC play.

Nevada is getting better every week and last week really put it all togehter. Tied at 21-21 with UNLV, Nevada proceeded to score 42 points in the second half and beat the Rebels 63-28, rushing for an amazing 559 yards and gaining 773 for the contest. All those yards came despite the fact the Wolf Pack turned the ball over four times and had 169 yards in penalties.

QB Colin Kaepernick had struggled to regain the form he had in 2008, but he found it on Saturday, throwing for 208 yards and a TD, catching a TD pass and rushing for 173 yards. This kid has a ton of talent, but he might have been forcing things early in the season to try and live up to the high expectations.

Nevada had three players with 170 yards rushing or more, including Mike Ball who ran for 184 yards and five TDs against UNLV.

Against Louisiana Tech, Nevada has won four straight meetings, but failed to get the cash last year in a 35-31 road loss as the Bulldogs showed some heart. However, in their last meeting to Reno, the 'Dogs were beaten 49-10 and came nowhere near covering as a seven-point road 'dog.

Louisiana Tech is on ATS nosedives of 14-37-1 on the road, 1-8-1 in the last 10 roadies, 13-28 as a 'dog, 16-36-1 as a road 'dog, 3-10 as a WAC road 'dog and 7-19 when catching more than 10 points.

On the other side, Nevada is 22-9 ATS at Mackay Stadium, 20-7 as a home favorite, 10-2 when laying more than 10 points and 11-3 as a home favorite in WAC games.

The Wolf Pack are looking good and you'll see them drastically reduce the turnovers and penalties tonight. Play Nevada to get the blowout win.
4? NEVADA

20 DIMER - NEVADA WOLF PACK

Have to lay the wood tonight, as Nevada showed some serious bite last week in rolling UNLV, that after their 0-3 start to the campaign.

Louisiana Tech has been off since their impressive showing at home in a win, and cover over Hawaii, but the Bulldogs and the road has NOT been a good mix lately, as they are just 1-8-1 against the spread their last 10 on the road.

Also not in Tech's favor is the fact they have lost the last 4 in this series, covering just once in those 4 games.

Nevada should be able to run the ball at will on this defense, as both Auburn, and Navy went hog-wild on the ground against La Tech.

Finally, the Wolf Pack are on a 16-3 spread run their last 19 played in Reno. Expect MacKay Stadium to be roaring loudly for the home team in this rout.

Take the 'Pack minus the points on Friday night.

I have to tell you that this is not the same Red Sox team that won the 2 world series. I actually believe they get swept in this series. The Angels are a hungry bunch of players and yesterday I told you how big Bobby Abreu was to this team. His stats won't light up the scoreboard, but drawing walks in that game was a big part of why the Angels won. I actually waited a long time for the Red Sox not to be the team they were during my six years of college when they won 2 world series. It was annoying and I'm not a Red Sox hater by any stretch of imagination, but I'm glad to see them on their way out as I feel it will be after tonight.
A lot of people were shocked about last night's game but not me. Red Sox are just 3-13 since the All Star Break on the road against teams with winning records. They are 7-15 in their last 22 meetings in LA. Let's just throw out the "hex" or whatever you want to call it because this Angels team is flat out a better team than the Red Sox. First sign of that is the line we get here today I think most people would be giving the Red Sox the edge behind Josh Beckett and public bettors still are but I'm not buying it. Beckett on the road had a 4.13 ERA this year and he was hit hard many times! Although I think he comes up with a big performance against the Angels tonight it won't be nearly enough. In his last 5 starts vs. the Angels he has a 6.17 ERA. In his road starts opponents are hitting 55 points higher in average in just 3 less innings pitched. Why do I like the under then? Beckett is one of the best pitchers in post season history. He's not a bum by any stretch of the imagination I think he'll pitch well giving up 2-3 runs or so, but again that won't be enough with Weaver on the mound at home. I have been on the wrong side with Becket when I thought he would give the Red Sox a much needed win after a loss like he has so many times in the past and it cost me money! Not again tonight I'm not falling into the Beckett trap here tonight.
Jered Weaver at home this year has a 2.82 ERA with a 9-3 record. He had 2 great starts vs. the Red Sox this year 13.2 IP 8 hits, 3 BB and 12K's both home starts. Red Sox again don't hit righties on the road approaching under 4 runs per game per 9 innings vs. RHP this year. I'm just not buying them to revive themselves now 4 games under .500 on the road the Angels can smell the win. Red Sox are 2-6 in their last 8 with Becket as a dog and 0-4 in his last 4 on the road vs. a team with a winning record.
The Under- Under is 21-5-1 in Red Sox last 27 as a rod dog, and 13-6-2 in their last 21 playoff games as a dog. Under is 20-7-1 in Becket's last 28 games when opponents scores 5R + in previous game. Angels on the other hand are under 16-4-1 in their last 21 when their opponents score 2 runs or less in previous game. They are under 15-5-1 last 21 vs. RH starter which shows that they hit lefties just a little better.
