Monday's Action
30 Dime baseball selection goes this Monday night on the Indians as they open a new series with the Athletics at Progressive Field. At the time I releose this winner, the odds have Cleveland -135 across the board both here in Vegas and offshore. Note that when placing your action, you must list McCarthy and Huff as the starting pitchers. Both must start, or this play is VOID!

The Jets under Rex Ryan love to talk the smack, especially when it can draw attention in the media. This is exactly the opposite of how the Giants Tom Coughlin prefers to run his ship, being more disciplined and under the radar as much as you can be in the Big Apple. For whatever reason the Flyboys have always placed greater emphasis on this conflict and have been on the winning side of 12 of last 15 and are 13-4-1 ATS since 1993. The Jets will have plenty to say after they jet to another win and cover.
We have two solid pitcher’s going against some very shakey offenses. This total is a run to high for the situation.
Yesterday, Pittsburgh lost to St. Louis, 7-4. The Pirates are 12-25-3 OU since May 31, 2010 as a dog after a loss and it is the first game of the series for a net profit of $1205 when playing the under.
Meanwhile, Houston is the favorite here, something that’s been rare. The Astros are 3-10-1 OU since April 23, 2010 as a favorite and it is the first game of the series for a net profit of $670 when playing the under.
They won 4-3 in 11 innings yesterday, using six pitchers in the process. The Astros are 7-20 OU since June 04, 2010 after a win in which they used 5+ pitchers for a net profit of $1225 when playing the under.
Ross Ohlendorf goes for the Pittsburgh and he is known for keeping scoring down on the road. The Pirates are 0-13-2 OU since May 23, 2009 when Ross Ohlendorf starts on the road vs a team that has hit more grounders than fly balls season-to-date for a net profit of $1300 when playing the under.
Meanwhile, Wandy Rodriguez gets the chance to go as a favorite. The Astros are 2-8-1 OU since April 06, 2010 when Wandy Rodriguez starts as a favorite for a net profit of $570 when playing the under. Also, the Astros are 1-11-1 OU since August 30, 2005 when Wandy Rodriguez starts as a home favorite in the first game of a series for a net profit of $980 when playing the under.
