Boston Red Sox vs. Baltimore Orioles (MLB)
Play: Money Line: 109 Baltimore Orioles

To say Baltimore is hitting the ball is like saying Michael Phelps is a good swimmer. The Orioles are averaging 8.5 runs per game in last 10 outings. They have banged out 136 hits in this timeframe and are 23-9 against the money line in home games after two or more consecutive road games. Boston lost last two games at home and are just 6-15 in road games against division opponents this season. Even though John Lester has been pitching well for the Red Sox, so has Jeremy Guthrie for the O's, fashioning a 1.17 ERA in last three starts. Great spot for hot hitting underdog to win series opener

Tommy Rider | NFL Total Double-Dime Bet
432 NYG / 431 CLE Under 35.5 Bodog
Analysis:
I'm taking this game to go UNDER the total tonight. Playing unders in the preseason can be dicey because of crazy fourth quarters but I can't see either offense doing much tonight.



First off all, both teams are decimated at the receiver position. Amani Toomer, Plaxico Burress, David Tyree, Mario Manningham and Steve Smith are all out for New York tonight. That leaves Domenik Hixon and Sinorice Moss as the Giants starters, with camp fodder Michael Jennings, Brandon London, D.J. Hall and Craphonso Thorpe as the only other receivers on the roster.



For the Browns, Braylon Edwards is out, allowing little-used Travis Wilson to get the start. Wilson has looked good in camp but he's far from a No. 2 NFL receiver. The Browns are also battling through numerous injuries along their offensive line. That's not good when facing the Giants deep, talented physical front.



Eli Manning and Derek Anderson will each play into the second quarter. However, the Giants are expected to feature rookie QB Andre Woodson for a large portion of the second half. From what I've been told, Woodson has been very inconsistent in camp and he'll be playing with receivers who won't even be on an NFL roster in a couple of weeks. The G-Men also step up their defensive effort in Week 2 of the preseason, allowing a total of 12 points in this spot the last two years.



My final reason for taking the UNDER tonight is the fact that these two teams play each other in the regular season on Oct. 13. That means neither squad will want to show anything on offense, so I expect to see a lot of running and basic offensive sets. If you like boring football, tonight's game is for you. I would be surprised if this game reaches 25 points much less 35.5. Everything points to an easy UNDER tonight.

Carlo Campanella
Seattle Mariners at Chicago White Sox Aug 18
Prediction: Chicago White Sox
Reason: Seattle starts Jarrod Washburn on the mound at Chicago on Monday night. Washburn is 5-12 with a 4.58 ERA on the season, but enters off a solid effort in which he went 7 Innings and allowing just 1 Earned Run. Washburn's performance was good enough to get the win, but the Mariners lost 7-3 that night. Washburn has NOT been able to put solid back-to-back games together this year as we find him at a horrible 2-9 this season after holding his previous opponent to 2 Earned Runs or less!

5 UNIT PLAY

MINNESOTA -138 over Oakland

The Athletics are 6-20 in their last 26 road games and 3-13 in their last 16 road games vs. a right-handed starter, while the Twins are 25-10 in their last 35 games following a win and 16-5 in their last 21 when their opponent scores 2 runs or less in their previous game. Minnesota has done well vs the lesser teams in the league as they are 37-27 vs teams with losing records this year, including a superb 11-1 mark in their last 12 home games vs losing teams. Minnesota has also been excellent at home overall this year, going 44-22, while hitting .288 and scoring 5.3 rpg in the process. Minnesota sends Nick Blackburn to the mound tonight and he has been solid for them on the year, going 9-6 with a 3.73 ERA overall, including a 6-2 mark with a 2.90 ERA at home. The Twins are just 13-11 in his starts overall, but 8-3 in his home starts, including 5-1 in his last 6 starts at the Metrodome, while outscoring opponents by 2.8 rpg in the 6 games. The A's come in just 5-25 in their last last 30 games, including a 2-14 mark on the road during that stretch. The Oakland offense has been horrible the last month or so, as they have averaged just 2.7 rpg over their last 30 games, including just 2.3 rpg in their last 16 on the road. The A's have scored 3 runs or less in 13 of the 16 road games and now must face a Twins staff that has a a solid 3.37 ERA at home. Justin Duchscherer has been good for the A's this year, with a 10-8 mark and a 2.59 ERA overall, but he has struggled of late going 0-2 with a 6.17 ERA inhis last 4 starts. This should be a good series for the Twins as they look to keep pace with the ChiSox and they will begin it with an easy win tonight.



3 UNIT PLAY

LA Angels +108 over TAMPA BAY

Boy this is one of the games I wished I had put out last night, before realizing it was a top play of others on here as well. Jeff Bonds gave great insight on the travel of Tampa and what they're heading into, so I won't go into all that, but what I will go into is my usual key trends and stats that give this play even more merit. The Angels are 21-6 in their last 27 vs. American League East and 6-1 in their last 7 during game 1 of a series, while the Rays are 20-48 in the last 68 meetings and just 2-5 in their last 7 game 1 of a series. Jon Garland has pitched very well for the Halos, going 11-7 with a 4.26 ERA overall, including a 7-2 mark with 4.57 ERA on the road. Johnhas also always pitched well vs the Rays going 5-1 with a 3.04 ERA in 10 career starts vs them, including a 3-0 mark with a 2.13 ERA in 6 starts at the Trop. Andy Sonnanstine has also had a nice year so far, going 12-6 with a 4.35 ERA overall, including a 6-3 mark with a 4.36 ERA at home, but he has struggled in 2 starts vs the Halos, going 0-1 with a 6.00 ERA. The Rays are 5-2 without Longoria and Crawford, scoring 5.1 rpg in the process, but the loss of the two should begin to take its toll. The Rays score just 4.6 rpg at home and 4.5 rpg at night. The Angels are the best road team in the league, with a 39-24 mark, including a 10-2 mark in their last 12 road openers of a series. The last time the Angels were at the Trop they were swept by the Rays and only scored 5 total runs in the 3 games. Payback starts tonight as the halos have all the edges in this one, including the emotional and mental edges and that should propell them to a solid win vs a team that they just might meet later in the playoffs.

NFL Preseason

Browns/Giants Under 35

Both teams will be playing each other in the regular season so neither team will want to show what arsenal they have. Both team has some wide receiver injuries which leads me to believe the first teams wont light up the scoreboard. This game should be more or less a walk thru. This is as meaningless as a preseason game is going to get as both teams face off in a few months.

MLB Money Line
double-dime bet 957 BOS (-122)Bodog vs 958 BAL

After getting drilled 15-4 yesterday you can fully expect a big Red Sox bounce back effort on Monday! JD Drew did leave Sundays contest early with a bad back but, even if hes held out Monday, theres still plenty of potency in this lineup to take care of Jeremy Guthrie. Yes, the Orioles right-hander has put together some impressive starts recently. However, hes struggled in his career against the Red Sox. In seven games (six starts) against Boston, Guthrie is 1-1 with a 3.58 ERA. But dont be fooled by that low ERA as the Orioles hurler has been fortunate to say the least. The Red Sox have hit .284 against Guthrie in his career and they should connect well again on Monday night. Also note that, although Guthrie is 4-4 with a 3.48 ERA at home this season, he has allowed opponents to hit .267 against him at Camden Yards. Guthrie has actually proven much tougher to hit on the road in comparison with at home and the Red Sox bats should come to life at Camden Yards. Guthrie last faced the BoSox on June 12th and that turned into a very rough outing for him at Fenway Park. Look for more of the same in Baltimore tonight. The Orioles offense has been on a red hot tear and they just pummeled the Tigers yesterday. However, they now run into a tough left-hander who is on top of his game right now. Jon Lester gets the start for the Red Sox and the southpaw is 8-1 with a 2.87 ERA over his last 12 starts. Also, Lester is a perfect 4-0 with a 3.25 ERA in his six career starts against the Orioles. This included a June outing where he opposed Guthrie and got the win with a very solid effort. The Red Sox won that game 9 to 2 and a repeat of that type of score in this rematch would not be a surprise at all. The Red Sox win this Divisional match-up in a rout to improve to 8-5 versus the Orioles this season.

Rangers -118 (POD)

Kenny Rogers has always been one of my favorite pitchers, but he is struggling of late and is 0-4 his last 4 starts, he is undoubtedly a Hall of Famer in my book, but the question is if he should hang it up now given his lack of pitching of late, of course, we were saying that about Ponson, but at the same time, Ponson, Maddux and all of those pitchers who we thought might be losing it, have come back relatively well, Rogers did pitch against Mendoza and Texas earlier and despite a 16.22 era against them, the Tigers did win 19-6, Feldman had a 20+ era in his last start, so I do expect him to pitch significantly better today, Texas comes off a 4-7 loss yesterday, and this is a game that the Rangers should win at home despite it being high scoring, in short, Feldman should be better than Rogers today as this is likely a 9-4 type of ballgame imo.
