5* Dodgers / Braves Total Under 7

We have 2 pitchers here pitching some outstanding baseball right now. Billingsley has allowed only 5 earned runs in his last 33.2 innings pitched. Billingsley has had no run support at all his last 2 starts and it will be tough to come by on Monday when Tommy Hanson takes the hill. Hanson has been outstanding his last 5 starts allowing only 5 earned runs in his last 33.2 innings pitched. In Hanson's last 3 starts his ERA is an incredible 0.84 with a 0.70 WHIP. There are several outstanding trends listed below that favor this Under selection: Under is 3-0-1 in Dodgers last 4 during game 4 of a series. Under is 8-2-1 in Dodgers last 11 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. Under is 11-4 in Dodgers last 15 games vs. a right-handed starter.

ASA

Houston Astros over New York Mets

Jonathon Niese has put together a nice season but the Mets have been losers in six of his last seven starts. Niese owns a sound ERA in that stretch but he has been susceptible to allowing too many walks and for the year he owns a much worse numbers on the road. New York’s bullpen is in a bit of disarray at the moment and the Mets enter this game coming off long travel to Houston following the Sunday night game at home, a very tough 3-1 loss to Philadelphia.

Houston has a poor overall record for the season but since late July, when the Astros shipped off a couple of malcontent stars, Houston is 11-6. The Astros have terrible scoring numbers for the season but in the last 17 games Houston has not been held below two runs and only held below four runs four times. For the season Houston 17-13 against left-handed starters compared with going 34-52 against right-handers and the current lineup is hitting .321 against southpaws in the last ten games, compared with a .180 team average for the Mets in those match-ups.

While both teams are 4-6 in the last ten games the Mets have scored a grand total of 23 runs in that span. Scoring will be difficult against Wandy Rodriguez tonight as the veteran is putting together an excellent second half of the season. In his last nine starts Rodriguez has held his opposition to one or fewer earned runs allowed seven times while pitching at least six innings in each of his last nine starts. Rodriguez owns a 5.36:1 strikeout-to-walk ratio in that span and the Astros are 6-3. For the season Rodriguez owns a 3.00 ERA and a 1.18 WHIP in Houston.

The Astros are 9-2 in the last eleven home games as this is a much different team than the club that had a horrendous April to dig a huge hole in the standings. The Mets have been awful road performers all season long including going 7-19 in the last 26 road games and 22-37 overall for the season away from home. New York is batting just .240 as a team away from home and Niese will have very little support to work with if Rodriguez pitches as well as he has been throwing. Look for Houston to keep its run of strong play at home going with a win in this match-up against the slumping Mets who needed a better result in the last series to keep hope of a postseason run alive.
