Baltimore Orioles vs. LAA Angels (MLB) - Aug 6, 2008 3:35 PM EDT
Play: Money Line: -195 LAA Angels

Baltimore has a good young pitcher on their hands in Garrett Olsen, who is coming off back-to-back wins, and is 8-5 on the year, with an ERA at 5.50. The Angels are countering with 12 game winner Ervin Santana who snapped a mini two game slide last time out with an 8 inning 5 hit outing in a 1-0 win at Yankees Stadium. Look for more of the same from Santana and the Angels as they win the afternoon affair. Play on the LA Angels



Big Al McMordie

New York Yankees vs. Texas Rangers (MLB) - Aug 6, 2008 8:05 PM EDT
Play: Money Line: -124 New York Yankees

At 8:05pm our complimentary selection is on the New York Yankees over the Texas Rangers. It can't get much more daunting than the situation for Texas' young righthanded starter Tommy Hunter. Just barely 22 years old and still in his first professional season, Hunter will step to the mound tonight to face the likes of Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, and Johnny Damon in only his second-ever Major League start. It was originally thought that Hunter would be a one-start pitcher getting a spot start for the injured Eric Hurley. That first start was less-than-inspiring, but Hurley's injury has since landed him on the DL so Hunter will remain in the rotation, at least for now. Unlike the Yankees, injuries to Texas players this season have not been earth-shattering as this is a team that realistically is still in rebuilding mode and never really thought it would compete in 2008. But for the mighty Bronx Bombers, the multiple injuries they've suffered so far in '08 have put a serious crimp in their plans to once again appear in the post-season. And now, you can add Joba Chaberlain to the list of walking wounded as he has developed a potentially serious shoulder injury. So, it appears that the most unlikely of regular AL starters, Sidney Ponson, will remain in the Yankee rotation for the foreseeable future as the combination of his strong performances and the growing list of Yankee pitching injuries more or less guarantees him a job unless he totally implodes on the mound. Even with the Rangers' win on Tuesday, the Yankees are still 21-8 in the last 29 meetings of these two teams and 19-8 in the last 27 in Arlington. Take the Yankees. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.

Wednesday play the White Sox-Tigers game OVER the total.


This is a perfect storm for an ?over? play. Not only have both teams been crushing the ball lately ? and pitching like Little Leaguers ? but last night these teams were involved in a 10-8, 14-inning thriller, with the Tigers scoring twice to take an 8-6 lead in the top of the 14th, only to give up four runs in the bottom of the frame to blow the game. Both teams used eight pitchers in the game, and the 14 relievers combined to throw 275 pitches!

Now, the workload on the relievers last night wouldn?t be a big deal if you thought the starters tonight could go deep into the game. Not likely, because both John Danks (6.85 ERA last four starts) and Justin Verlander (12.10 ERA last two starts) have been terrible lately. In fact, these two pitchers squared off on July 26 in Detroit and the final score was 7-6, with both pitchers combining to give up 12 of the 13 runs!

Finally, check out these trends: The over is 4-0 in Danks? last four starts 6-2-1 in Verlander?s last nine starts, 6-1 in Detroit?s last seven games overall (all on the road), 8-2 in Detroit?s last 10 as an underdog, 17-5-1 in Chicago?s last 23 games overall and 6-1 in Chicago?s last seven at home. Got ourselves a nice shootout on our hands here. Play it OVER the total.

(Based on a 1♦ to 10♦ rating system)


4♦ White Sox-Tigers OVER the total




Tony Weston

Going to Tampa as we?re got the under in the Indians-Rays game today.

Despite the over coming in last night, the under is 3-2 their last five meetings and is 2-1 their last three games. Also, dating back to last season the under is on a 6-3 run and is 9-5-1 their last 16 meetings.

Keep in mind that the under is 6-4 in the Indians? last 10 games and it is 10-3 in the Rays? last 13 games. Also consider tonight?s scheduled starting pitchers. Jeremy Sowers for the Indians has seen the under go 6-4 in his last 10 starts and Rays scheduled starter Scott Kazmir has seen the under go 8-2 in his last 10 starts. The under is also on a 5-0 run in Kazmir?s last five starts.

The total for today is set at around 8 and the teams will not come close to that. Go with the under today.


3♦ INDIANS-RAYS UNDER (On a 1-5♦ Scale)



L.A. Dodgers (-115) at ST. LOUIS Bobby Maxwell

We're going with the suddenly potent offense of the Dodgers to win this one tonight in St. Louis. They've got Derek Lowe (8-9, 3.70 ERA) on the hill going against the Cardinals' Joel Pineiro (3-5, 5.04).

Los Angeles rallied for four ninth-inning runs on Tuesday but came up short 6-4 in extra innings. Since the acquisition of Manny Ramirez, this team has come alive with the bats and even beleagured Andruw Jones delivered a homer in the ninth-inning rally Tuesday.

Lowe has a 2.75 ERA in his last three starts and the opponents are hitting just .257 in those three games. The Dodgers had won four straight starts until Lowe gave up two runs in 6.1 innings on Thursday in a 2-1 loss to the D'Backs. He faced these Cardinals back on May 23 and allowed two runs on five hits in seven innings but the Dodgers' offense didn't show up and they lost 2-1.

Now the Dodgers have an offense.

Pineiro has been terrible lately, posting a 7.88 ERA in his last three starts and he's given up 10 hits or more in six of his last seven starts and four runs or more in five of those seven. Teams are running to the plate to get an at-bat against this guy as the opposition is hitting .349 against him this season and .405 against him in the last three games.

Watch as the Dodgers unload on Pineiro and the Cardinals.

3♦ L.A. DODGERS

The Minnesota Twins are on a roll going 7-3 in their last ten games including 14-6 in their last twenty games as a road Favorite. The Twins are also a very solid 23-8 in their last 31 games as a favorite, and 13-3 vs left hand starting pitching in their last 16 games. We look for the Minnesota Twins to dismantle the Seattle Mariners in this American League showdown for the road win today.

Milwaukee Brewers vs. Cincinnati Reds

Milwaukee Brewers -119

A lot has been said about Homer Bailey's potential. While you have to agree that the potential is there, it just doesn't seem like he's ready to be a big-league pitcher. Bailey is yet to notch an MLB win for the Reds and his over-7.00 ERA doesn't inspire confidence in his performance. The Brewers have come out in the 2nd half and played like a team that really wants to make a run at the Central pennant, or at the very least the NL Wildcard. Brewers pick up a valuable road victory Wednesday night in Cincy.

Dave Cokin

My free pick of the day is the game between (971) MIN Twins and (972) SEA Mariners. Take "(971) MIN Twins".
Rookie Nick Blackburn has had the occasional rough spot, but most of those bad outings have been against the big time offenses. He's done really well against the softer lineups and he gets one here against the Mariners. I can't say there's much hesitation in trying to beat Seattle's Jared Washburn, and it's a big game for the road team. The Twins are the choice.


Jim Feist

My free pick of the day is the game between (979) DET Tigers and (980) CHW White Sox. Take "(980) CHW White Sox". Chicago is happy to be home after a 10-game trip. That will help their pitching staff, which is 6th overall in the AL. Starter John Danks has been strong, at 8-4 with a 3.31 ERA, walking few while allowing less hits than innings pitched. Third baseman Joe Crede probably won't be activated from the 15-day disabled list because the tightness in his lower back has not subsided. Manager Ozzie Guillen will stick with Juan Uribe over Josh Fields at third because of Uribe's superior fielding. "I believe in defense," Guillen said. Detroit fireballer Justin Verlander has a 6.87 ERA his last three starts and lifetime is just 1-3 against Chicago with a 6.15 ERA. Play the White Sox!



Paul Bovi

My free pick of the day is the game between (251) NO Saints and (252) ARI Cardinals. Take "Under". It will be Tyler Palko, Mark Brunell and Travis Lulay getting most of the snaps for the Saints while coach Whisenhunt looks for his inaugural preseason win after last years.5? 0-4, though several were close. The Saints are sitting the bulk of the offensive talent inclding Deuce, Devery and Marques and will pay more close attention to the defensive side here as that has been their Achilles heel. Zona in the desert gets it 16-13 Under

Los Angeles Dodgers (-110)
Wed Aug 6 '08 8:15p

The LA Dodgers behind a new look offense that features all star Manny Ramirez look like viable wagering options tonight as they prepare to tee off the Cardinals Joel Pineiro (3-5, 5.04 ERA). The native of Puerto Rico has looked bad in his last four starts, allowing 10 hits each time out, while garnering a ugly 8.31 ERA.

Meanwhile, his pitching opponent, right hander Derek Lowe (8-9, 3.70), is 3-1 in his 5 starts along with a stable 3.06 ERA, and despite of a sub par .500 record this season, almost always gives his team a chance of victory. The Dearborn , Michigan native biggest problem during his current campaign has been run support, however, with the red hot bat of Ramirez backing him, I am predicting that problem will be put to rest.

Final notes & Key Trends: Ramirez in his career vs Pineiro is 11 for 26 (.423 BA).

Play on the Dodgers



Dwayne Bryant

Washington Nationals (Perez) at Colorado Rockies (Francis)

OVER 9.5 (Listed Pitchers)

When I picked the Rockies last night as part of my Baseball Triple Play Package, I wrote about Colorado's success against lefties at home. Colorado is batting .324 and scoring 7.2 runs per game against lefty starters at home this season. The Rockies are also batting .357 and scoring 8.33 runs per game against lefties over their last ten games. But even light-hitting Washington is batting .290 and scoring 5.53 runs per game against lefties over their last ten games. Did I mention we have a pair of lefty starters going tonight?

Let's look at how the batters for these two teams have fared against tonight's opposing starter. In their collective careers against Odalis Perez, the Rockies hitters are 22-for-52 (.423, 8 doubles, 1 homer). What may surprise you is, in their collective careers against Jeff Francis, Washington's hitters are 17-for-36 (.472, 2 doubles, 2 homers). That's a hefty average on both sides. Sprinkle in a few walks and there should be plenty of scoring in this one.

The OVER is 8-1 in the Nationals' last 9 games vs. a left-handed starter. The OVER is also 6-1 in the Rockies' last 7 home games vs. a left-handed starter and 11-1 in Francis' last 12 starts vs. teams from the National League East. The OVER is also 7-1 in the last 8 meetings between these two teams in Colorado.

Take Colorado/Francis and Washington/Perez OVER the total.

SPORTS ADVISORS

NATIONAL LEAGUE

Florida (60-53) at Philadelphia (61-51)

The Phillies will trot out Kyle Kendrick (9-5, 4.59 ERA) for the middle game of a three-game set against the N.L. East rival Marlins, who will counter with fellow right-hander Anibal Sanchez (1-0, 3.18) at Citizens Bank Park. In Tuesday night?s opener, Florida pounded out an 8-2 victory. Philadelphia has still won seven of its last nine games and is on further runs of 5-1 in division play, 6-3 at home and 14-5 in Kendrick?s last 19 starts.

Florida, which is now just 1? games behind the first-place Phillies in the N.L. East race, is on a 7-3 roll in its last 10 games against right-handers. The Marlins also hold a 6-4 edge in the season series against the Phillies, but Philadelphia has still won four of the last six home contests against Florida.

Kendrick snapped a two-game skid in his last start, allowing two runs on seven hits in 6 2/3 innings Thursday in an 8-4 win at Washington. On July 19 at Florida, though, he got roughed up for seven runs on 10 hits in just 4 1/3 innings in a 9-5 loss.

Sanchez, who is coming back from shoulder surgery, made his first appearance in 15 months Thursday against Colorado and seemed to find his form quickly. The 24-year-old allowed two runs on six hits in 5 2/3 innings as Florida rolled to a 12-2 home win.

Kendrick is 3-3 with a 4.33 ERA in 10 home starts this year, and the 23-year-old is 0-1 with an inflated 14.54 ERA in his lone career start against Florida ? the aforementioned loss last month. Sanchez, who made only six starts in 2007 before being shelved with the shoulder injury, is 0-1 with a bloated 10.61 ERA in two career starts against Philadelphia.

The over for Philadelphia is on runs of 7-2-1 overall, 7-0 at Citizens Bank, 22-8 overall behind Kendrick and 10-4 when Kendrick stats at home. The over is also 40-18-6 in Florida?s last 64 roadies, and in this rivalry, the over has cashed in five straight meetings at Philadelphia.

ATS ADVANTAGE: OVER


L.A. Dodgers (56-56) at St. Louis (63-52)

The Dodgers give the ball to veteran Derek Lowe (8-9, 3.70 ERA) for the second game of a three-game series at Busch Stadium against the Cardinals, who are set to go with Joel Pineiro (3-5, 5.04) on the hill. On Tuesday night, St. Louis won 6-4 in 11 innings on Ryan Ludwick?s two-run walk-off homer. Despite the setback, Los Angeles still is in the midst of streaks of 11-6 on the highway and 6-2 against the N.L. Central.

St. Louis remains on a 6-9 slide in its last 15 games and is in additional ruts of 2-6 at home and 2-5 in Pineiro?s last seven starts at Busch. However, in this rivalry, St. Louis is on a 15-4 spree in the last 19 clashes dating to July 2005, and the Cards are also 23-7 in their last 30 home contests against the Dodgers.

The Dodgers had won four straight backing Lowe until Thursday, when they were a dealt a 2-1 home loss to Arizona. In that outing, Lowe gave up both runs on seven hits in 6 1/3 innings. Prior to that, Lowe threw eight shutout innings of one-hit ball in a 6-0 home rout of Washington.

The Cardinals are 4-2 in Pineiro?s last six starts, but he got rocked in his last outing, allowing six runs on 10 hits in six innings of a 9-4 loss at Atlanta. In fact, in his last four starts, Pineiro has allowed 20 earned runs in 21 2/3 innings (8.31 ERA).

Lowe is 2-4 with a 5.02 ERA in 11 road starts this year, and he?s 1-5 with a 5.24 ERA in six career starts against St. Louis. Pineiro, meanwhile, is 1-1 with a 3.72 ERA in six home starts, with St. Louis losing in three of his four no-decisions. He?s also 1-0 with a 4.26 ERA in his lone career start against Los Angeles.

The under is 11-6 in the last 17 series meetings, cashing in five of the last seven contests (3-1 this year). The under is also on streaks of 5-2 overall for the Dodgers, 15-5 for L.A. against the N.L. Central, 7-2 in Lowe?s last nine outings overall and 5-2-1 for St. Louis at home.

ATS ADVANTAGE:L.A. DODGERS and UNDER
