MLB TUESDAY PLAY OF THE DAY

LA DODGERS @ ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS
3 UNITS: ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS -155

The LA Dodgers are off to a very slow start, especially on the road where they stand at just 5-11 for the season. The D-backs will have their ace, Dan Haren taking the hill, and he is rounding into form after a slow start, as he has allowed just 7 runs over his last 3 starts. The D-Backs have been getting some offense, and will face rookie John Ely who has been average to date. The Dodgers come into this one just 1-9 in their last 10 posted as a dog, and the D-Backs are a perfect 5-0 behind Haren in his last 5 posted as a favorite. Arizona gets the nod.

Re: 5-11-10

duffy....Sports betting fans have multiple sports to choose from tonight. On the hardwood, LeBron James and the Cavaliers host Boston in Game 5 of their NBA Playoffs series. On the diamond, the New York Yankees pay a visit to the Detroit Tigers. Here are today’s picks from ScoresOddsPicks of OffshoreInsiders.com:

NBA odds: Boston Celtics at Cleveland Cavaliers (-7.5) – 8:00 p.m. ET

Boston came away with a 97-87 victory in Game 4, knotting the series at two games apiece. The Celtics covered as 1.5-point underdogs, giving them their sixth win against the spread in their past 10 games on NBA odds. The series shifts back to Cleveland now, and Boston is just 5-5 against the spread in its last 10 road games.

The Cavaliers have let down sports betting fans over the past few weeks. Despite racking up some wins, LeBron James and Co. have covered just four of their past 10 outings. In fact, Cleveland is just 7-13 in its last 20 games against the spread. The Cavaliers have actually been worse on their home turf, going 3-7 ATS in their last 10 home games.
This series has been a dogfight, and there’s no reason to believe that will change now. Boston will keep it close enough to cover.

Pick: Boston

MLB odds: New York Yankees (-140) at Detroit Tigers (+120) – 7:05 p.m. ET

Projected starters: Javier Vazquez vs. Rick Porcello

The Yankees have dropped back-to-back games on MLB odds, which ended a six-game winning streak. Still, they’re a rock-solid 7-3 in their past 10 outings. Javier Vazquez (1-3, 9.78 ERA) will take the mound for New York. They’ve won just one of his five starts this season, and he allowed five runs in three innings during last week’s 7-6 loss to the Chicago White Sox.

Detroit is 2-4 in its last six games, though both victories came in the past three days. Rick Porcello (2-3, 7.50 ERA) will get the nod for the Tigers. He’s allowed at least five runs in four consecutive games, although in his last start—a 5-4 loss to the Twins—only three of them were earned. Detroit is 2-4 in games started by Porcello.

The Yankees are definitely playing better at the sportsbook right now. Vazquez has been a bit of a nightmare, but he has a solid track record against the Tigers, boasting a 4.50 ERA in 13 starts. He’ll do enough to let the Bronx Bombers go to work on Porcello.

Pick: New York.

Matchup: Cincinnati at Pittsburgh
Listed pitchers must go: (R) CUETO, J vs. (R) MORTON, C

Play: Cincinnati (ML -120)

The Pirates are actually within hailing distance of being .500, but don't be misled. This is a bad baseball team, and the run differential on the season tells a more accurate story of their true level. But because the overall record isn't awful, the result is that there are some reasonable prices in games where the Bucs would seem to be at a distinct disadvantage. Tonight is one those scenarios. Johnny Cueto has turned into a six-inning pitcher, but with a decent bullpen to finish things up, Cueto can garner his share of wins if he's just keeps his side in the game. He's flashed his best form of the season lately, so this is not a bad time to back Cueto, especially against a soft attack that he's handled well throughout his career. Charlie Morton has saved his spot in the Pittsburgh rotation with a couple of okay efforts, but I'm not at all convinced he's turned the corner. I also like the fact Evan Meek worked a couple of innings in relief on Monday. He's been the best bullpen component for the Bucs but does not figure to see action tonight. The price here is not bad at all, and I'm backing Cueto and the Reds to earn the victory.

Matchup: Washington at N.Y. Mets

Listed pitchers must go: (L) OLSEN, S vs. (L) NIESE, J

Play: Under (8.5 -110)

A pair of hot pitchers along with two spotty offenses and the right umpire add up to a Total selection in tonight's Nationals-Mets hookup. Neither Scott Olsen nor Jon Niese are going to be anything other than spectators come All-Star time. But both are in solid form right now. Olsen nearly no-hit the Braves last outing, and he's allowed just one earned run in his last 20 innings. Niese has come on nicely and has pitched exceptionally well at home so far this season. Neither offense is exactly sizzling right now, and John Hirschbeck and his generous strike zone are a pitcher's best friend. I don't see many runs going on the scoreboard this evening, so the Nationals-Mets play in on the Under.

Winners of a smooth 4 in a row on the MLB BASES . last night's winner was the Ugly Anaheim Angels + 130 and tonight's 3* J Bomb of the Month = Over Red Sox nation

Jr. O is red hot and we will break down this baby to go over as huge power rating variance of 13 runs tonight shows a 2.5 run over lay. Toronto Jays hurler Dana Eveland will get bombed tonight in Boston as the bats are getting hot in Bean town. We no~te that D Eveland has been toasted in all four games against the Red Sox, going 0-2 with an 18 + ERA. We also note that the boys from Bean town are in nasty mood after that Yankees series and we will look for them to continue hitting the rock ,Daisuke Matsuzaka (1-1, 9.90 ERA) will not be the stopper tonight as the Jays will get to him. The Red Sox own a terrible bullpen 5.15 ERA among the bottom 5 in the Bigs!

JR O IS ON FIRE AND GOES 5-0 AFTER THE RED SOX/JAYS GO OVER 10.5 RUNS TONIGHT
