double-dime bet 908 FLA (-150) Bodog vs 907 HOU
Analysis: Happ has a 4.66ERA in his 3 starts as a member of the Astros. He has a career 5.51ERA v Fla. He has a 4.62FIP and 5.80xFIP, w a "lucky" .253BABIP, albeit in limited play this season. He also has a low 34% ground ball rate. Sanchez has a lifetime 0.96ERA v Hou. He has 5 quality starts in his last 6 outings and an eye-opening 3.24FIP (13th best in MLB), w a 4.26xFIP and .318BABIP. Only Baltimore, Seattle, Pittsburgh, and Arizona have won fewer road games than Houston's 21. Additionally, the Marlins are 23-12 v left-handed starters this season. I firmly expect that to go to 24-12 tonight in what is without question the Best Bet of the night.

Scott Rickenbach’s MLB 10* (TOP PLAY) OVER in Philadelphia vs Washington @ 7:05 ET: Halladay vs Marquis – RATING SYSTEM: Plays range from 6* on up to 10* so this includes 7* and 8* picks as well. 6*, 7*, 8*: most common play ratings with a 9* being a Top Play! 10* plays are a step above a 9* Top Play. The *10* is Scott's highest rated selection!


In a way, we’re making a play on the Phillies here but we’re doing it without having to lay a huge price on the money line or a big price on the run line. Even at -1.5 runs, the Phillies are priced around a -170 favorite. Conversely, the over 8 runs in this match-up (and we may even start to see some 7.5) is currently available at even money. That means we can make a big investment here without laying any juice and we can fully expect the Phillies to absolutely pound Jason Marquis of the Nationals. The right-hander is simply enduring the worst of times right now. The Nats Marquis has lost all five of his starts this season while compiling a 14.33 ERA and being hit at an insane .405 clip on the season. Facing Philly is unlikely to help Marquis. He faced them twice early in the season and he got pounded in both meetings. In his career, Marquis has a 5.21 ERA against the Phils. All five of Marquis’ starts have gone over the total this season and, as a team, Washington was on an 11-6-1 to the over heading into yesterday’s action. The Nationals had allowed double digits in hits in 7 of their last 9 games before closing out their series with the Braves with a 6-2 win at Atlanta yesterday. The Nats are facing a Phillies team that will be fired up after losing 5-2 to the Giants yesterday and being handcuffed by Jonathan Sanchez. Prior to that defeat, the Phillies had recorded at least 9 hits in 7 of their last 9 games. They should have no trouble with the offerings of Marquis and a Washington pitching staff that has combined to allow 8 runs or more in 5 of their last 10 games.

Offensively, we know that the Nationals certainly aren’t the most impressive team in the league. However, Roy Halladay of the Phillies has allowed four earned runs or more in 3 of his last 9 starts. There is no doubt he’s a fantastic pitcher but he has allowed 6 homers in his last 9 starts and we won’t be surprised to see him give up some runs here to a Washington club that has scored at least four runs in four of their last eight games. The Nats have banged out at least nine hits in four of their last eight games. The Phillies are 11-4 to the over this season when they are at home and the posted total is 8 or 8.5 runs. That record is also an impressive 27-15 to the over the last three seasons. Philadelphia won Halladay’s last start 4-0 and, prior to that, the Phils had scored at least 6 runs in each of his last five starts! They are also likely to give him plenty of run support here as Marquis’ misery continues and the Nationals pitching staff gets bombed once again. That, coupled with the fact that the Nats score at least a few off of Halladay, has us seeing great line value here with the low total. Play OVER the total in Philadelphia as a *10* Top Play selection.







Scott Rickenbach’s MLB 8* (Regular Play) OVER in Detroit vs Cleveland @ 7:05 ET: Galarraga vs Masterson – RATING SYSTEM: Plays range from 6* on up to 10* so this includes 7* and 8* picks as well. 6*, 7*, 8*: most common play ratings with a 9* being a Top Play! 10* plays are a step above a 9* Top Play. The *10* is Scott's highest rated selection!


With their game going over the total yesterday, the Indians are now 4-1 to the over in their last five games. With another over for the Tigers yesterday as well, Detroit is now 8-4 to the over in their last 12 games. Cleveland is 6-3 to the over this season as a road dog of up to +125. They are 11-7 to the over in Friday games this season and they are also 11-7 to the over in their 18 games this month. Note that the Indians are 60-41 to the over as a road dog of up to +150 the last three seasons combined! The Tigers are 7-3 to the over as a home favorite of -125 to -150 this season. Detroit also is 8-5 to the over on Fridays this season. The Tigers are 7-3 to the over in Armando Galarraga’s last ten starts. He certainly hasn’t been the same pitcher he was when he threw that one-hitter against the Indians the last time he faced them. As for Cleveland’s Justin Masterson, the Indians are 14-4-1 to the over in his last 19 starts!

Masterson has walked 13 batters in his last three starts and those outings have totaled just 16 innings of work. The right-hander has a 5.93 ERA against Detroit in his career. Masterson also has an ugly 6.68 ERA in road games this season while getting pounded at a .312 clip away from home. Though he’s coming off of a solid start, that came against the light-hitting Mariners. Prior to that outing, Masterson had been charged with at least four runs (most of those were earned runs) in seven of his last eleven starts! Galarraga also has been on quite a run in that regard. The Tigers right-hander has given up at least four runs (most of those were earned runs) in 7 of his last 11 starts! Galarraga has a 4.66 ERA against the Indians in his career. Keep in mind, that includes the one hitter he threw against them earlier this season. Prior to that, Galarraga had a 5.51 ERA against the Indians in eight career starts. The Tigers righty got roughed up by the White Sox in his most recent start and, prior to that, Galarraga had 9 walks and just two strikeouts in his two prior outings. Galarraga has given up 8 homers in his last 6 home starts. Also, it’s certainly noteworthy that Galarraga is 11-4 in day games in his career but he’s 11-18 in night games and he’s compiled a 4.96 ERA under the lights! Look for his recent struggles to continue here while Masterson quickly comes back down to reality after enjoying success against the punchless Mariners in his last start! Play OVER the total in Detroit as an *8* Regular Play selection.

dime bet 929 TAM (-140) Bodog vs 930 OAK
Analysis:


Tampa Bay -140

4 things at work here for us. First up Tampa lost in a tight low scoring yesterday in this series. Tampa is 7-3 their last 10 and rarely lose back to back. Tampas starter is 3-0 with an ERA under 1 and has not given up a run on the road this year in his only road start. He is a good right hander and Oakland is hitting righties at a paltry .192 as a team their last 10 games. Tampa has the better offense here and will have more run support opportunities, although Mazzaro is a good pitcher for the As. Funny thing is the tell tale in this one, he is 0-3 his last 3 starts with a 2.37 ERA, which means what? No run support or offense and Tampa has revenge on their mind.

Play 1 Unit on Tampa Bay tonight. Thanks and good luck, TG.

triple-dime bet 929 TAM (-134) Sportbet vs 930 OAK
Analysis: One of the clear advantages the modern day handicapper has over those who came before is the advancement of television and satellite coverage, the days of needing a monster dish in your yard that looks like something from NASA are thankfully long gone. I am a fanatic subscriber to every sports package DirectTV offers and the major league baseball extra innings package is included. It offers up the golden opportunity to see for yourself teams and players at a level like never before. Naturally it helps to have an understanding wife which I am blessed to have. What I am getting at is I have watch the Rays young starter Jeremy Hellickson and this young man has ALL the tools to be an all star for several years to come. Velocity, location, he's got the whole package and he seems to be very composed and self confident for such a young hurler. Needless to say I've been very impressed. I watched this guy do his thing sunday and it was special, he threw a total of 97 pitches and 60 of those were strikes in his outing against Baltimore. He is now a perfect 3-0 with a stellar 1.35 era in his three starts in the bigs. I just think unless Jeremy has an off night he has the potential to downright dominate this Oakland lineup. Mazzaro is certainly capable and a solid big league starter but he's not like this kid guys I'm telling you. Our price might seem a little steep for a road favorite with a rookie on the bump, frankly I'm perfectly willing, able and looking forward to pulling the trigger on this one. Triple Star Game of the Week on the Rays here guys!
Good luck!

double-dime bet 405 PHI / 406 CIN Over 37.5 BetUS
Analysis:
8:00pm ET-5:00pm PT / FOX Sports TV
Philadelphia Eagles @ Cincinnati Bengals
2** Play on: OVER THE TOTAL

This one is following the OU pattern of last night's Patriots / Falcons game. And just like we said in last night's writeup:
The OU Line opened at 37 points. But get your play in ASAP... as the OU line figures to go UP on gameday!

This will be Cincinnati’s 3rd game of the 2010 pre-season. But for the Eagles, it’s actually Game #2 (Cincy gets an extra game as they start the year with a Hall-of-Fame date with the Dallas Cowboys). So with an added game under their belts, this one is the ‘tune up’ for the Bengals. And it’s the first situational System that I queried in our Playbook NFL database.

7-1 O/U since 2001: All NFL ‘X’ Game 3 HOME teams (Cincy) versus an opponent playing Game 2 (Philly).

The Bengals are also off a home game vs the Broncos.
4-0 O/U since 2000: NFL ‘X’ Game 3 teams playing in the 2nd of BB home games…if they also played in the Hall-of-Fame game (Cincy).

Speaking of previous opponents, we also note that NFL ‘X’ home teams have gone:
5-0 O/U in the last 3 years AFTER playing the Denver Broncos (Cincy).

The Bengals won by a final score of 33-24 last Sunday...
6-1 O/U in the last 5 years: All NFL 'X' teams playing off a SUATS win in which they scored 31 > points AND allowed 21 > points (Cincy).

A look at this particular Day of the Week also points us in the right direction.
7-1 O/U last 3 years: All NFL ‘X’ Game 3 teams playing on a FRIDAY (Cincy).

On the Philadelphia side, this will be the first of back-to-back road games for the Eagles.
13-1 O/U since 2001: All NFL ‘X’ Game 2 teams playing in the FIRST of BB road games (Philly).

The 2nd pre-season game has always been an important one for Andy Reid of the Eagles. For you ATS fans, we note that Philly has gone 9-1-1 ATS in Game 2 over the last 11 seasons. They have scored 20 or more points SIX times in the last 7 years. And we note that PHILLY has gone a perfect 6-0 O/U in Games 2 and 3 of the pre-season in the last 3 years.

The clincher to this Best Bet is the fact that the Bengals have gone a perfect 5-0 O/U as pre-season favorites against a NFC opponent in the last 4 years.

triple-dime bet 405 PHI / 406 CIN Over 37.5 Bookmaker.com
Analysis:
3* Signature winner on the Over 37.5 game @ 7:55 east
JR KNOWS THE SHARPS MOVED THIS BABY TO 37.5 and Jr O will pound the Over! The Vegas lines makers have set this line @ 37.5 for a reason as Eagles coach A Reid will play K. Kolb deep in to the first half as he wants to see some positives out of the Birds O, the Eagles coach was majorly disappointed in the Birds Red zone offence. The Bengals will be also looking to score some points as JT Sullivan and Jordan Sullivan will put up some points with the T O show in the Mix. Our Power Ratings have this baby @ 43, a full 6 points off the posted #, We also will see some defensive pressure which will result in a short field and turnovers BOOOOOM GOES THE OVER
