PHOENIX SUNS
Memphis is a team with no defense and little depth. Those are major problems against uptempo teams that run right at you. It happened two games ago, as Golden State blew out the Grizzlies by 31 points. It's happened twice already against this Phoenix Suns team, losing by 14 and 21 points. The key here is: Does Phoenix have anything to play for? Yes, they are locked in a tight battle for playoff positioning with the Jazz and Rockets. A third straight blowout by the superior Suns is on tap. Play the Phoenix Suns!
Chip Chirimbes
NEW YORK KNICKS
If recent history is any indication, the Pistons might be able to get a little more rest against New York (21-56). The Knicks have not won in Detroit since an 89-82 victory on March 27, 2002. The Pistons won 98-86 in the only meeting this season at The Palace of Auburn Hills on Nov. 21. The Knicks ended a five-game losing streak on Sunday, beating the Magic 100-90. Rookie Wilson Chandler scored a season-high 23 points, nearly four times his season average entering the game (5.9).

CINCINNATI REDS
Johnny Cueto was phenomenal in his awesome effort against the Diamondbacks, and I'll look for him to keep it going Tuesday at Milwaukee. Suppan and the Brewers won't be pushovers by any means, but I'm going to be on the Cueto bandwagon for at least his first trip around the league, so the Reds are the choice.
Matt Rivers
CINCINNATI REDS
I fully admit that this game is not the epitome of a value as the Brewers are clearly superior to the Reds and playing on the road is never great but I am going to take my chances with this possible next wonderkid in Johnny Cueto. I do not expect Dusty Baker's young hurler to be as unreal as he was in that first start where he struck out 10 and looked like Cy Young against Arizona but if this kid is half of what they are now saying then I cannot help but back him at a price where he is not a heavy favorite. Who knows, maybe this guy is overrated and overvalued because of that initial outing but Jeff Suppan really does not scare me, even with that great first start, and I'll back the fairly impressive Reds. Cincinnati has jumped out of the box very well this season. They had won four of five before being shut down a bit by a stud in Cole Hamels and overall should be feeling pretty good about themselves. Griffey, Dunn, Patterson and Phillips have a ton of potential and this team has a great shot to win this game. I like Ned Yost's team as Ryan Braun and Prince Fiedler should be stars for years to come and Bill Hall, Ricky Weeks, JJ Hardy and others are very good as well but I will give Cueto some love here. If he is overvalued and it turns out this was the wrong side then I learned my lesson. But if this is the next great thing then we are getting a steal!

3♦ LA ANGELS -125
The Indians have lost four of their last five after opening the season with two straight wins. And the Angels are coming into this one off one of the most amazing wins you?ll ever see. Los Angeles beat Cleveland Monday when the Angels blew a 2-1 lead in the ninth when closer Francisco Rodriguez gave up three runs to fall behind 4-2. But a dramatic grand slam homer off the bat of Torii Hunter in the bottom of the ninth got the win and cover. He also homered in the eighth to give the Angels the lead. Our guy Ervin Santana (1-0, 3.00 ERA) starts for the Angels and comes off a Thursday debut in Minnesota when he gave up two runs on four hits in a 5-4 Los Angeles win. Now he is back on the mound in Anaheim where he has dominated the last two seasons. Santana is 25-9 with a 3.14 ERA in his last 43 starts in front of the home crowd. This guy has been a cash cow in Anaheim the last few years. Jake Westbrook (0-1, 2.45 ERA) goes for the Tribe and in his first effort he gave up two runs over 7.1 innings against the White Sox in a 2-1 loss. Look for the emotion from Monday?s loss to carryover to Tuesday?s game and the same to be true for the Angels. They stay in the game behind the strong start from Santana.
Karl Garrett
4♦ INDIANA PACERS -3
With 5 games left to play, the Pacers find themselves 3 games behind the Hawks for the 8th and final playoff spot in the East Conference. Indy has won their last pair, and 7 of their last 10 straight up to give themselves a chance at catching Atlanta. The Hawks to their credit have won 6 of their last 7 straight up, but they are just 16-22 against the spread this season on the road. Series numbers show the home team has won and covered the last 5 meetings, and 7 of the last 10 overall. With very little wiggle-room left for Indiana, I look for them to step up, and deliver this Tuesday evening.

3♦ PHOENIX SUNS -11?
We believe the Suns will come out in a fiesty mood tonight, as they blew a 13-point 4th quarter lead at home on Sunday against the Dallas Mavericks, getting outscored 27-9 in the 4th to absorb a hurtful loss. Memphis has been playing decent basketball to close this lost season out, as they have split their last 10 games straight up, but they have failed in 3 of their last 4 when getting points. Phoenix has big road games at San Antonio, and Houston the next couple of nights, so expect them to take no prisoners in this "gimme" game. The Suns have won the last 7 series meetings, covering the last pair, and 4 of the last 5, and we will ride the Suns once again to dominate the season series against the Grizzlies. Play on Phoenix.
Vernon Croy
BOSTON RED SOX -160
Take Boston here Tuesday afternoon since they have the better pitcher on the mound and Detroit will continue to struggle even with Rogers on the mound who has a 3-6 record and an ERA of 5.45 against the Red Sox. Matsuzaka has pitched solid over his two starts this season with an ERA of just 2.31 while striking out 15 hitters and I look for him to remain strong against Detroit Tuesday afternoon. Boston is 34-19 the last 3 seasons when playing with a day off and their opponents are hitting just .219 as a team against them this season. Make sure you get on my 20 Unit MLB Bookie Buster for Tuesday night.

CLEVELAND INDIANS
Tribe sends Jake Westbrook up against Ervin Santana and the Angels in Los Angeles Tuesday night knowing Westbrook owns a sharp 3.12 ERA in eight career team starts against the Halos. On the flip side, Santana is 0-5 lifetime with a 7.59 career ERA against the Indians. With Westbrook off a fine spring camp, look for the Tribe to get back in the win column here tonight.

NY YANKEES
Good value here on the Bombers, especially since most of KC's damage (three of four wins) has come against so far winless Tigers and since Hughes went six scoreless innings in his first start of 2008. Lay the small price here.

3♦ CHICAGO
Chicago (-9) at MIAMI
Lay the points on the road tonight as the Chicago Bulls take on the tanking Miami Heat. Pat Riley can say what he wants, but everyone that has one inkling of sports knowledge knows that the Heat are a typical case of a team that is looking for the number one draft pick.
Miami is 15-36 ATS in their last 51 home games, 6-14-1 ATS in their last 21 versus NBA Central foes, and an awful 18-37-1 ATS in their last 56 overall.
The Bulls I realize have not been completely lights out, but they have won two of their last four heading into tonight?s match up. Chicago is currently scoring at a rate of just over 99 ppg, while the Heat have dropped their scoring average to 91 ppg. Miami has lost seven in a row, and show no signs about caring to win at this time.
Play the Bulls to win and cover.

TIP OF THE DAY
Utah Jazz at New Orleans Hornets
Tuesday, April 8th, 8:05 PM ET
New Orleans has the homecourt edge here, which is worth noting considering that these teams have met three times this season and the home team has won by 28, 22, and 12. Having been off since Friday, Utah may be lethargic here. They are also 0-8 against the spread on the road if coming off three or more home games. The last two time the Jazz have hit the road, they lost to New Jersey and Minnesota. New Orleans is very sold in the home favorite role, having covered 22 of 35 times this year.
Play on: New Orleans
Scott Spreitzer
Philadelphia Phillies at New York Mets
Tuesday, April 8th, 1:10 PM ET
Jamie Moyer takes on Oliver Perez in a battle of southpaws. Perez has been absolutely horrible in home day starts, posting a 6.95 ERA in his last 10 tries. As a member of the Mets and Pirates, his teams are just 5-12 and he owns a 6.96 ERA in April starts. He'll face a lineup that clobbered lefties in day action last year, posting 6.9 RPG away from home. Veteran Jamie Moyer has posted big-time numbers in the month of April over the last three seasons and he owns a 2.62 ERA in his last 11 starts against the Mets. I'm taking the underdog Phillies on Tuesday afternoon.

1.5-Unit Play. Take #901 Philadelphia (+135) over New York Mets (1 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)
1-Unit Play. Take ?Over? 9.5 Philadelphia at New York Mets (1 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)
The Phillies have won eight straight against the Mets and six straight in Shea Stadium. We have two equally shaky bullpens and I see both starters getting touched up pretty well. Jamie Moyer has had a lot of success against the Mets in his career and the Phillies are 17-4 in his last 21 starts against divisional opponents. Neither bullpen can get anyone out and both teams crush left-handed pitching. I see a barn burner between these rivals.
3.5-Unit Play. Take ?Over? 9.5 St. Louis at Houston (8 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)
C.B. Bucknor?s tiny zone isn?t going to help out either pitcher in today?s matchup. This guy is a nearly automatic ?over? play. And, following a fluke ?under? in the Minnesota game last week in which there were 18 hits and just seven runs, I think we?re going to see some fireworks in tiny Minute Maid park. Shawn Chacon has an ERA of nearly 6.00 in his career in Houston and the ?over? is 5-1 in Brad Thompson?s last six outings. Finally, the wind will be blowing out and I think the roof will be open. I'm looking for at least three home runs and well over double-digits in runs.
2.5-Unit Play. Take #924 Los Angeles Angels (-120) over Cleveland (10 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)
1.5-Unit Play. Take ?Over? 8.5 Cleveland at Los Angeles Angels (10 p.m., Thursday, Apirl 8)
Even though Ervin Santana is 0-5 in his career against the Indians, he is still 25-9 at home in his career and the Angels are 26-9 in his . Hopefully some momentum will carry over for the Halos from their big win last night and they will beat up Jake Westbrook. Jake is 5-12 in his career in April and just 2-5 against the Angels. Cleveland is also 1-6 in his last seven starts against L.A. The Angels are hitting nearly .300 against right-handed pitching and I look for them to jump on Westbrook early.
2-Unit Play. Take #917 New York Yankees (-140) over Kansas City (4 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)
The Yankees have won nine of 10 against the Royals and are 19-6 against K.C. over the past three years. Also, New York is 48-12 in the last 60 meetings with the Royals. Their bats came out to play in the last two games against Tampa Bay and I think that they will continue to pound Brian Bannister, whom they rocked in an 11-5 win last September.
2-Unit Play. Take #911 San Diego (-105) over San Francisco (10 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)
In another week or so we?re going to have to pay -200 to bet against the Giants. We?re going to get while the getting is good. The Giants were awful against left-handers last year and San Diego has been hammering right-handed pitching. This one should be tight, but I think the Padres can continue San Fran's misery. They are 11-1 in the last 12 meetings.
1-Unit Play. Take #909 Los Angeles Dodgers (-130) over Arizona (9:40 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)
1.5-Unit Play. Take ?Under? 9.0 Los Angeles Dodgers at Arizona (9:40 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)
I think the Dodgers bounce back with a win today against Doug Davis, who will be making one of his last starts before leaving the team to deal with his thyroid cancer. He should get a nice boost from the home crowd, but the Dodgers have been destroying left-handed pitching over the last two seasons and I think they?re going to get to him today.
1.5-Unit Play. Take #901 Philadelphia (+135) over New York Mets (1 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)
1-Unit Play. Take ?Over? 9.5 Philadelphia at New York Mets (1 p.m., Tuesday, April 8)

Once in a while is ok for a request but EVERYDAY there is a request from Bases for Ness in mlb and if hockey was going on, it would be "any Ness in mlb or Burns in nhl. Thanks". It gets sickening. Look at his history of posts in his profile, he requests it EVERYDAY. I agree completely with Ytown, Bases man up and buy the lousy picks or be patient and wait. Your post is tiring to see everyday. Do you really think anyone sees your post and runs around to accomadate you? Again, buy them if you need ness/burns early or sit tight. WTF!
