MLB
4-Unit Play. Take #926. Take Under 9.0 Detroit Tigers vs. Chicago Whitesox (Tuesday @ 8:10pm est)
Galarraga went from not being on the starting rotation to possibly being a national martyr in a span of a few days. He is on the mound once again for the Tigers as he has yet to yield a run in over ten innings of play. He has given up just two hits in that span as well. I look for him to have a strong outing on the road today as he looked very sharp against the Indians and I suspect he has a decent outing today. I'm not sure if the Tigers win this game, but I do believe that he will have a decent outing. Do note that Gavin Floyd comes off his worst start of the year as he gave up six runs in less than three innings at home against Texas. He had similar rough outings in the beginning of the year, and came up big in back to back starts giving up just four runs in 13 innings. I suspect he will have a strong bounce-back at home as well and consequently with two pitchers having motivations to put up a strong outing today, I suspect that this game will likely go under the posted total. The Under is 7-3 when Galarraga starts with a total in this range and the Under is 6-1-1 for Floyd when the total is set at this range.

WNBA
4-Unit Play. Take #652. Take Chicago Sky -5.5 over New York Liberty (Tuesday @ 8:00pm est)
The Sky are one of the hottest teams in the league. So, it is no surprise that we roll with them today. This team started the year so poorly and then they made shockwaves by destroying the Storm at home. The Storm consequently destroyed the Silver Stars after that game, but still, it is the Seattle game that gave this team the confidence it needed. Chicago started the year 0-4 and have won the next four games including defeating Seattle as noted, hammering Minnesota on the road 15, defeating the Atlanta Dream on the road outright by ten points giving Atlanta their first back to back losses, and beating Tulsa recently at home by 25 points. I look for Chicago to keep their hot streak going and their strong play at home today. This team is still ticked off at their poor 0-4 start and now will look to get above .500 on the year as the core of Fowles, Christon and Canty are coming together. Don't get me wrong, New York is a decent team but they just run into a Chicago team playing exceptionally well. I do plan on taking New York when they get home after this road trip, but for now, I'll ride Chicago to get it done once again. The Liberty are 1-4 ATS in their last five ballgames against the Eastern Conference and the Sky are 4-0 ATS in their last four games overall.

NBA
4-Unit Play. Take #706. Take Under 192.5 Boston Celtics vs. Los Angeles Lakers (Tuesday @ 9:00pm est).
Why not? We'll just keep riding the under. We have taken 3 of 4 unders of late and consequently 3 of 4 winning nights. I told myself that when this series goes back to Boston, I will take the Under. The Refs consistently let Boston go after their opponent at home as the games are far more physical. This dates back to the Hawks series a few years ago, the Magic earlier this year and the Lakers last a few years back as well. I look for Boston to dictate the pace of this game and certainly LA to make a stand at several points. But, I look for this game to have a strong defensive tone similar to game one - and that was in LA. Very few playoff games in Boston have been going over and I don't suspect this one will either. The Under is 4-1 in the Celtics last five home games and the Under is 13-6 when the Lakers are a road underdog.

Celtics

The Laker supporter tonight will undoubtedly argue that if not for Ray Allen’s incredible shooting display in Game – he drained his first seven three-pointers and finished with a game-high 32 points – the Celtics would have returned home down 0-2. I’ll counter that argument with this: Only two players showed up for the Celtics in Game 2 – Allen and point guard Rajon Rondo (19 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists) – and the team had 11 fewer points from the free-throw line (and 15 fewer free-throw attempts), and yet Boston won going away 103-94.

Paul Pierce? Contributed just 10 points on 2-for-11 shooting. Kevin Garnett? Six points, four and five fouls in 23 minutes. And yet the Celtics rolled to a nine-point win.

The point is this: If the Celtics can win on the Lakers’ home court with two of their top four players contributing a combined 16 points and eight rebounds, what’s going to happen now that Boston is back home? Granted, it’s highly unlikely that Allen will come close to duplicating his Game 2 performance, but it’s also highly unlikely that Pierce and Garnett will play as poorly as they played.

Also, it’s highly unlikely that L.A. big man Andrew Bynum, who had one of his best games in months with 21 points, six rebounds and seven blocked shots on Sunday, will repeat his effort tonight (especially since he continues to deal with a knee injury that’s going to require surgery when this series ends).

Meanwhile, two interesting trends have begun to develop regarding the Lakers. First off, prior to Sunday, the Lakers had lost just four games in these playoffs, and it was a pair of two-game losing streaks in Games 3 and 4 on the road (at Oklahoma City in the opening round and at Phoenix in the conference finals). Secondly, not only did L.A. lose Game 3 on the road to both the Thunder and Suns, but they barely escaped with a 111-110 win in Utah in Game 3.

In fact, going back to the 2008 playoffs, the Lakers are 3-6 the last nine times they’ve played Game 3 on the road. That’s not a quirk, guys. That tells me this team has trouble adjusting when playing for the first time in enemy territory (when the crowd is more revved up than at any point in a series).

Boston is now on a 10-3-1 ATS roll against the Lakers, including three easy home wins in the NBA Finals back in 2008 (Games 1, 2 and 6). In fact, the Celtics have cashed in seven of eight NBA Finals contests against Los Angeles (only exception coming in Game 1 of this series). Boston is also on an 8-3 SU and ATS roll overall, including 6-2 SU and ATS at home (all as a favorite).

Finally, since an eight-game playoff winning streak (7-1 ATS), the Lakers have now split their last six games (2-4 ATS). And again, so far in this postseason, when Los Angeles loses once, it has not bounced back well. Expect that trend to continue tonight, especially in what’s going to be an extremely hostile environment.


Mets

I’m all about Mike Pelfrey in this one. I backed him in his most recent start a week ago today in San Diego, and he dominated the Padres in a 4-2 win, improving to 8-1 with a 2.39 ERA on the season. And if you take away one bad inning at Philadelphia – a six-run fourth inning – Pelfrey has given up just 13 runs in 70 2/3 innings, good for a paltry 1.47 ERA!

Pelfrey has been incredible at home, too, going 5-0 with a 2.05 ERA in seven starts, with New York winning six of them. Then again, all the Mets do is win at home. They’ve got the biggest home-road split in baseball (22-9 at Citi Field; 8-18 on the highway). And since starting the year 2-3 at home, they’ve won 20 of their last 26 in Queens. That includes a three-game sweep of the Marlins over the weekend, culminating with Sunday’s come-from-behind 7-6 win. That means the Mets carry an eight-game home winning streak into tonight!

True, the Padres got a split of their four-game series in Philadelphia on Monday, scoring a 3-0 victory after Sunday’s 6-5, 10-inning win. And San Diego took two of three from the Mets last week (and it has won 14 of the last 20 meetings going back to 2007. However, the road team has won 12 of the last 18 meetings in this rivalry.

Again, though, this is about Pelfrey, who limited the Padres to just one run on four hits and two walks while striking out eight in last week’s victory. And Pelfey has been – pardon the pun – lights out in night games this year (7-0, 1.50 ERA in eight games, all Mets wins) as opposed to 1-2 with a 5.09 ERA in daytime action.

Finally, Padres lefty Clayton Richard (4-3, 2.87 ERA) has been solid all year, and that includes a one-run, four-hit, four-walk, six-inning performance against New York on Wednesday (the Padres eventually prevailed 5-1 in 11 innings). But he’s still facing a Mets lineup that’s tattooing lefty pitching this year to the tune of a .291 average overall, a .322 average at home and a .314 average in the last 10 games. Hence the reason New York has won seven in a row at home against southpaws!

The Mets are also on runs of 7-3 against the N.L. West, 7-1 on Tuesday, 8-2 as a home favorite and 5-0 after a day off.

Re: 6-8-10

Al DeMarco Tuesday's Plays 15 Dime play on the Celtics minus the points at home against Los Angeles. As this play is releasid at 11:00 AM Pacific, Boston is a solid -2 1/2 here in Vegas and offshore. In either case, go ahead and buy down the half point with Boston.

5 Dime play on the Celtics at the adjustted series price of +110.

5 Dime play on the New York Mets and Pelfrey over San Diego and Richard. Make sure you specify both schedulod starters in this contest. At this time, the Mets are anywhere between a -130 to -140 favorite depending on where you shop.

5 Dime Play on the Los Angeles Angels and Weaver over Oakland and Mazzaro. Again, specify both starters of the play is null and void. At the time I released this play, the Angels are around -145 here in Vegas and offshore.

Re: 6-8-10

Chris Jordan Tuesday night trifecta...







200? Tuesday Night Trifecta
ANGELS - METS - CELTICS





Angels (List Weaver and Mazzaro) - The Angels have scrapped and clawed their way back atop the American League West standings, and now it's time to make a statement. In perfect position to earn ts seventh straight win and seventh in a row in Oakland, I love my chances with Jered Weaver on the bump for the Halos.

Weaver, who is 5-2 with a 2.74 ERA on the year, has an awfully stingy 1.17 ERA in his past four matchups against the Athletics. He won his previous trip to Oaktown, albeit was last year in October, when he allowed three hits over five scoreless innings in a 5-2 win. I'm betting he'll be looking to avenge a no-decision against them on April 10, when he gave up one run over six innings in a 4-3 win.

Oakland has already lost five of seven this month, and has to be one of the most tired teams in the league, having played 14 straight days now. The A's opened a 10-game road trip in Baltimore, moved on to Detroit and then Boston, and has been home since June 4 for Minnesota and now the Angels. The team is 7-7 during this stretch, but I don't see it standing a chance with Vin Mazzaro getting the nod today. He replces Brett Anderson in the rotation, and is 0-1 with a 7.88 ERA in two starts versus the Halos.

Play the Angels in this one.

Mets (List Pelfrey only) - Sporting a three-game win streak, I like the Mets to keep the roll going tonight with Mike Pelfrey listed as my only pitcher of record. I know the Padres have been playing well, but this is a value play on New York, as its young right-hander is in line for a a fifth straight win and second in eight days over the National League West-leading Padres.

Pelfrey, who is 8-1 thus far this season with a stellar 2.39 ERA, ranks near the top of the majors in wins and ERA, while he's allowed four runs and struck out 21 over 28-2/3 innings to win his last four starts. Last Tuesday, at PETCO Park, he was dominant in giving up one run and four hits while striking out a season-high eight over eight frames in a 4-2 victory. He improved 2-0 with a 3.16 ERA in four career starts against San Diego.

The Mets, who have won eight straight at home, will be riding the momentum of a three-game sweep of Florida and come in having won 18 of 22 at Citi Field, improving their home mark to a major-league best 22-9.

Tonight marks the Padres' fifth straight road game in as many days after playing a four-game set in Philadelphia. They'll be a little winded here, while the Mets will be fired up to keep their streak alive. All Mets.

Celtics - They went back to the basics in Game 2, and that's all it took. A defensive game plan that led to cutting off passing angles and forced Los Angeles' ballhandlers to extend their dribble. It gave the Lakers too much time to think about it, and forced low-percentage shots and/or mistakes from the field.

And when the Lakers' shots went awry, the Celtics took those misfires to the other end of the court in transition and were able to take much better shots by setting themselves up for good looks and high-percentage jumpers. Think about it, the Celtics put up a 103-spot in Staples, and forced the total over. You'd think, by this happening, the Lakers would be scoring about 110 points.

But such is not the case, and now the Lakers are in trouble, as the Celtics have stolen the momentum in this series - the same way they did against Cleveland and Orlando. This has been the Celtics' recipe for success the past three seasons, they simply couldn't execute it properly last year in the postseason since they were dinged up. Now that they're healthy, and they've gotten back to the basics, the Lakers are in deep trouble. Lay the low chalk.

Re: 6-8-10

Chuck O'Brien TUESDAY'S WINNERS 30 DIME: ROCKIES run-line (-1 1/2 runs vs. Astros)

NOTE: As with all run-line selections, pitchers are automatically specified. So Jeff Francis (Colorado) and Brian Moehler (Houston) must start this game or this play is null and void!

10 DIME: CELTICS (minus the points vs. Lakers)


Rockies (-1½ runs)

BREAKDOWN: After dominating his first two opponents this year (one run allowed in 13 1/3 innings), Rockies lefty Jeff Francis got knocked around pretty good in his last two outings against the Dodgers and Giants (nine runs allowed in 11 innings). Expect Francis to bounce back in a big way in his fifth start of 2010 tonight, as he faces a weak Astros lineup that ranks dead last in baseball in batting average (.237), 29th in home runs (34 in 58 games) and 28th in runs scored (189, or 3.3 runs per game). Last night, Houston fell 5-1 to Colorado, scoring a ninth-inning run to avoid its seventh shutout of the season. Still, the Astros have now produced two runs or less 27 times. … Francis made single starts against Houston from 2006-08, and in those three games he gave up a combined five runs and 16 hits in 20 1/3 innings (2.21 ERA), and those Astros teams were at least decent offensively. This is year’s Astros are hitting .230 on the road, including a woeful .214 against left-handed pitching. … As for Houston starter Brian Moehler, all you need to know is this: He’s 0-2 with a 6.49 in 14 appearances (two starts), including 0-1 with a 9.72 ERA in five games on the road (where he’s allowed three homers in 8 1/3 innings). In eight games against Colorado (four starts), he’s 1-2 with a 6.67 ERA, including two Coors Field starts in which he gave up 11 runs and 19 hits in 10 1/3 innings.

Going back to last year, Houston is in slumps of 16-46 on the road, 13-40 as a road underdog, 5-21 against the N.L. West and 0-4 with Moehler starting on the road. Conversely, the Rockies are on positive runs of 58-27 at home, 45-21 against the N.L. Central and 8-3 against right-handed starters. Finally, 16 of the last 18 Rockies-Astros meetings – including the last five in a row – have been decided by more than one run.


Celtics

BREAKDOWN: This boils down to one thing: If the Celtics can go to Los Angeles and hand the Lakers their first home playoff loss (by nine points!) when two of their best players – Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett – contribute next to nothing to the cause, how do they not win this huge Game 3 back in Boston? The Celtics are 7-2 SU and ATS at home in these playoffs (and one of the defeats came in overtime against the desperate Magic). Meanwhile, the Lakers are just 4-4 SU and ATS on the road, and that was against the Thunder, Jazz and Suns – three teams I think we all could agree aren’t as talented or defensively stout as the Celtics … Interesting, too, that the Lakers have followed up one loss with a second loss twice already in these playoffs – they dropped Games 3 and 4 in Oklahoma City and Games 3 and 4 in Phoenix, all in convincing fashion – meaning they haven’t shown the ability to bounce back from adversity very quickly … The Celtics are 10-3-1 ATS in their last 14 games against Los Angeles, including 7-1 ATS in NBA Finals contests (3-0 SU and ATS in Finals games in Boston). Well, tonight because of this cheap pointspread, Boston just needs to win this game to cash! That’s too good to pass up.
