Tips and Trends
San Diego Padres at Chicago Cubs
Padres: Emotions will be running high when Greg Maddux takes the hill at Wrigley Field, the place where he started his career. Maddux has had two poor starts for the Padres this season but his other six outings were all solid. As usual, Maddux' control has been phenomenal, as he's walked just eight batters in 50.0 innings of work. The future Hall of Famer has dominated his former team, going 12-3 with a 2.56 ERA in 22 career starts against the Cubbies.
Padres are 1-9 in their last 9 games as an underdog.
The UNDER is 7-2 in San Diego's last 9 games overall.
Key Injuries - NONE
Cubs (-145): Ryan Dempster is one of baseball's biggest surprises so far in 2008. A former relief pitcher, Dempster is 4-1 with a 2.76 ERA since entering the Cubs starting rotation. Dempster has gone into the sixth inning in all but one if his starts. His one problem has been walks. Dempster has put 23 batters on base in 49.0 innings of work this season. Dempster has been in a lot of high scoring affairs, with six of the eight games he's started going over the total.
Cubs are 18-6 in their last 24 games as a favorite.
Cubs are 5-13 in the last 18 meetings.
Cubs are 6-13 in the last 19 meetings at Chicago.
Key Injuries - NONE
Atlanta Braves at Philadelphia Phillies
Braves: Chuck James has been far from a reliable starter for the Braves this season. In 19.0 innings pitched, James has given up 16 runs and 11 walks. James has been horrible on the road, losing both of his starts and sporting a robust 11.00 ERA away from home. On the bright side, James is 2-0 against the Phillies in his career, striking out 35 and walking only six in 35.1 innings of work.
Braves are 6-17 in their last 23 road games.
The UNDER is 17-6 in Atlanta's last 23 games as an underdog.
Key Injuries - NONE
Phillies (-180, O/U 9): Philadelphia is 3-0 is Cole Hamels last three starts. Over that span, Hamels has given up eight runs and struck out 18 batters in 20.1 innings. Hamels has been the Phillies bullpen best friend. He's gone at least 7.0 innings in seven of his eight starts. Hamels is only 2-2 at home this year but he does possess an impressive 2.80 ERA at Citizens Bank Park. The over is 6-2 in games Hamels has started this season.
Key Injuries - NONE
Colorado Rockies at Arizona Diamondbacks
Rockies: Aaron Cook has been a revelation for a struggling Colorado pitching staff this season. Cook is 6-1 with a minuscule 2.26 ERA in 2008. The Rockies have won seven of Cook's eight starts. That's pretty impressive when you consider Colorado has only won 15 games overall this season. Cook pitched at Arizona earlier in the year, getting the win after giving up just three runs in 6.0 innings of work. Cook has given up two runs or less in six starts, making the under 5-2-1 when he takes the mound.
Rockies are 2-10 in their last 12 road games.
Rockies are 2-9 in their last 11 games as an underdog.
Key Injuries - NONE
Diamondbacks (-165, O/U 8): It's saying something when Cook is the second best pitcher in this game but that's the case with Brandon Webb on the mound for Arizona. Webb is looking like a CY Young frontrunner, winning all eight of his starts while giving up more than three runs only once. Webb's most recent outing was a complete game victory over the Phillies. Even though Webb is dominating opponents this season, each of his last two starts has gone over the total. Webb is 10-7 lifetime against Colorado with a 3.69 ERA.
Diamondbacks are 27-11 in their last 38 home games.
Key Injuries - NONE
Chicago White Sox at Los Angeles Angels
White Sox (-115, O/U 8.5): The White Sox have stayed in contention this year thanks to strong starting pitching and Javier Vazquez has been a main contributor. With a record of 4-3 and respectable 3.63 ERA, Vazquez is proving to be a thorn in the side of AL hitters. One of Vazquez' biggest strengths is keeping the ball in play and trusting the defense around him to get outs. In 52.0 innings pitched, Vazquez has given up just three home runs and 12 walks. Vazquez has an impressive 2.95 ERA in three career starts versus the Angels.
Key Injuries - NONE
Angels: Jon Garland makes his first appearance against the White Sox since being traded from Chicago to the Angels this summer. The Sox probably aren't too happy to see their old friend on the mound. After a slow start this season, Garland has been money in four of his last five starts. Take out a poor performance against the A's and Garland has only given up seven runs in his last 28.1 innings pitched. The over cashed in five of Garland's first six outings but his last two starts have easily gone under the total.
Key Injuries - NONE
