Sunday's Play ...
15 DIME selection on the BOSTON RED SOX over the Rays in a prime-time clash from Tropicana Field. Boston is an undeadog ranging from +130 to +135 on the overnight lines. Note that you must list John Lackey as the Red Sox starting pitcher. If Lackey doesn’t go, this seleection is null and void. Also, I would advise monitrring the line in this one, as I expect the late money to come in on Tampa Bay, so it might be smart to wait and get a better take-back on Boston.
Red Sox
The biggest difference between Boston’s John Lackey and Tampa Bay’s James Shields is this: Lackey has pitched 169 2/3 innings and given up 14 home runs, including just one in three starts (16 2/3 innings) against Tampa Bay. Shields has worked 164 2/3 innings this year but he’s suraendered 29 long balls – that’s right, 15 more HRs than Lackey has allowed in five FEWER innings!
That’s important because Boston ranks second to Toronto in team home runs, including taking Shields deep three times in three games. Tampa Bay is just 2-7 in Shields’ last nine starts against the Red Sox, including three games this year in which Shields has allowed 11 runs in 19 2/3 innings (5.03 ERA). The Rays one the first of those three 6-5 in Boston, but lost the last two 2-0 and 8-5.
Conveersely, Lackey got roughed up in his first start against the Rays this year (eight runs in 3 1/3 innings of an 8-2 home loss). But since then, the veteran right-hander has faced Tampa twice and yielded a combined three runs in 13 1/3 innings, winning 11-3 and 8-5. Going back to his days with the Angels, Lackey is 7-2 in his last nine starts against the Rays, and in those seven wins he allowed just nine earned runs in 51 2/3 innings (1.92 ERA).
Boston’s offense has been ravaged by injuries this season – All-Stars Predroia and Youkilis are out for the season, as is starting CF Jacoby Ellsbury – but the Red Sox cortinue to battle. Despite a heartbreaking 3-2 walk-off last night, they’re still 5-2 in their last seven games and they’ve won 20 of 32 since July 26.
Sunday NFLX Power totals system + MLB Play Divisional system boh go Tonight. Saturday cashes big led by NFLX Goy Winner on Houston
On Sunday the free play is on the Milwaukee Brewers game. 960 at 2:10 eastern. The Brewers have Dominated the Pirates at home winning 21 of the last 23 games here. Today their starter is D. Bush. Historically Bush is much better at home. This year he has a solid outing here vs the Pirates allowing just 2 runs in 6+ innings. The Pirates are hitting a shade over .200 the past week. The Brewers are averaging over 5 runs per game the past week. Pittsburgh is a lousy 3-21 as a road dog in this range and Milwaukee is 10-4 as a home favorite in this range. Take Milwaukee today. On Sunday I have the NFL Power totals system and the MLB play of the day Dominator system going. Saturday cashed big led by the NFLX Goy winner on the Texans.. For the free play take Milwakee. GC

Game : Baltimore Orioles at Anaheim Angels (MLB) 03:35pm EST
Prediction : Anaheim Angels -1.5 / Jared Weaver must start.
Analysis : The Los Angeles Angels are in unfamiliar territory, being all but mathematically eliminated from winning the AL West with the whole month of September yet to go. They attempt to avoid the embarrassment of being swept at the Big A by Baltimore.
