Bob Donahue

Chicago at Cincinnati
Pick: Cincinnati +124

The Chicago Cubs look to win three in a row for the first time in three weeks behind Ryan Dempster. Dempster is coming off a great start going seven innings and giving up no runs on his way to victory. Dempster will be up against a very good rookie making his major league debut, Matt Maloney. Maloney is 4-3 with a 2.00 ERA in ten Triple-A starts this season, and has a stingy .73 ERA in his last five starts. I look for Maloney to come out and shut down this Cubs offense which is not great. The Reds will not regret the call up of this rookie, Take the Reds.

We Cover Spreads

Mets-113

John Lannan is over valued in this spot tonight vs. the Mets. We know they have been short handed due to injuries but this line still is off in our eyes. Lannan had a bad performance earlier this season vs. the Mets. In just five innings on the hill he gave up eight hits, five earned runs, and had a 0 strike out to 4 walks ratio in the 5-2 defeat. Last season against the Mets he gave up 10 earned runs in three starts while allowing Mets batters a .421 average. The Mets are batting .283 on the highway vs. southpaws this season which doesn't look good for Lannan.

He will be facing John Maine who has dominated the Nats line up in the past. In seven starts over the past three seasons he has allowed just 13 total runs against Washington, less than 2 runs per outing. Over the past three seasons the Nationals batters are only hitting .184 vs. the righty. Earlier this season Nats struggled with Maines' off-speed pitches as he gave up just four hits and 1 earned run in six innings of work. We have no problem laying short chalk against the worst team in baseball. The Mets are 4-0 in Maines' last four starts vs. the Nats and on the other side the Nats are 1-5 in Lannans' previous six starts vs. New York.

Cardinals-119

Aaron Cook has struggled this season with a 4.94 ERA, a 28 to 25 strike out to walk ratio, and his team has lost seven of his 10 starts this season. In just two starts vs. St. Louis in the past three seasons he allowed 9 earned runs. He has been fade material on the road with a 5.81 ERA while allowing 20 earned runs in just 31 innings of work this season. He shows a 1-2 record on the road this season but the Rockies have lost five of his six starts on the highway.

St. Louis is batting .284 vs right handers at home and we expect them to bounce back from last nights 11-4 loss. Todd Wellemeyer who is starting tonight sports an ERA over 5.00; but his last three games he has been steadily improving. He has won two of his last three starts and has a 2.76 ERA with a 12 strike out to 6 walks ratio. He hasn't allowed any long balls in those past three starts so we don't expect the Rockies bats to do as much damage as they have in their last two games. He is a good pitcher and earned 13 wins last year in his first full season as a starter. He already has five under his belt and we think he is going to get stronger as the season progresses. They have the better bullpen between the two teams yielding a 3.75 ERA vs. the shaky Rockies pen with a 4.59 ERA on the year. Colorado has dropped nine of their last 12 games in St. Louis.
