INDIAN COWBOY: SAINT LOUIS CARDINALS vs MILWAUKEE BREWERS
Play: SAINT LOUIS CARDINALS +132 (WAINWRIGHT)
Comments: INDIAN COWBOY SELECTION: Cardinals +132: Great dog price here for the Cardinals considering their ace is on the mound. I get a Cardinals offense that defeated Oswalt recently, that has struggled, but considering Wainwright has a 3.60 ERA on the year, has pitched 7 straight quality starts, has not yielded a run in 7 innings to the Brewers this year, Bush had a 10.5, 15.75 ERA last year against the Cards, and Wainwright defeated him 8-0 earlier this year, I look for the Cardinals to win this price as a dog. Keep in mind that Wainwright shut down a Phillies offense by giving up just 4 hits and 1 run to them in 8 innings, he has done well all year and I think that continues today. Cards are 5-1 when Wainwright is a dog, 9-4 in his last 13 road starts and the Brewers are 2-9 in Bush's last 11 starts with a total this low, meaning that Bush does not do well in games that are expected to be pitcher's duels as he simply does not match up to that caliber of pitching.
INDIAN COWBOY: TORONTO BLUEJAYS vs NY YANKEES
Play: Yankees Run-Line +101
Comments: INDIAN COWBOY SELECTION: Yankees Run-Line +101: This is a late addition b/c of the scratch overnight for Burnett. A game in which Burnett was starting, the Bluejays scratched him in place of Litsch. I was getting a bit excited about the under play this afternoon, but instead will settle for the Yanks Run-Line which I'm happy about as well. Look, the Yankees have been the best team in baseball since July 5th. They have gone on a ridiculous run, Pettitte did not do well against the Bluejays his last time out as he won the game but had a 4.77 ERA and for Pettitte's standards, that's not good enough. I think he bounces-back here with a 3.5 ERA performance or lower and Litsch is a good looking starter, but the Yanks didn't even allow him to finish the first inning the 1st time they faced him, the next time they gave him a 5.40 ERA in a game that they won 5-4. The Yanks simply have too much offense here and it will be tough for Litsch to duplicate that performance on the road against the Yanks. Bluejays are 0-5 when the total is set this high as their offense has been weak all season, 1-5 in their last 6 road games and the Yanks are 29-5 when Pettitte is favored by this margin.
INDIAN COWBOY'S PLAY OF THE DAY: KC Royals vs Baltimore Orioles
Play: INDIAN COWBOY'S PLAY OF THE DAY: KC Royals
Comments: INDIAN COWBOY'S PLAY OF THE DAY: KC Royals : The Royals have been exchanging wins and losses some time and after scoring no runs against Kevin Millwood yesterday, they will get their chances against Cabrera today. Meche has been great for the Royals this year and he and Bannister have been a solid tandem for this team to build on in the future. Meche comes into this game worth every penny this team spent on him as this was a massive risk they took on him, which was heavily criticized by the league, but Meche has sucked up the criticism and produced a 3.70 ERA for this ballclub. Royals are 5-1 in their last 6 games facing a pitcher with a WHIP greater than 1.30, 4-0 following a loss and the O's have lost Cabrera's last 6 home starts.

Selection: Washington/New York Over 9.5 (-110)
Today we expect a high-scoring game as the Washington Nationals do battle with the New York Mets. One reason why we expect a high-scoring game is because both these teams will send to the mound struggling starting pitchers. This says it all... Nationals Starting Pitcher (Matt Chico) has a 4.74 ERA on the season, while Mets Starting Pitcher (Mike Pelfrey) has a 5.24 ERA on the season. These teams also have a history of playing high-scoring games as of late. In fact, the Over is a perfect 5-0 in the last 5 meetings between these teams. We expect to see another high-scoring game tonight!
Take the Washington Nationals/New York Mets Over 9.5!

Wainwright (13-11) vs Bush (11-10)
Final Week in the regular season and the World Series Champs have been eliminated. The Brewers have blown a Golden Opportunity
and now trail the Cubbies by 3.5 games.
Adam Wainwright has pitched well down the stretch for the Redbirds
allowing just 8 runs in September, and actually has 127 K's and a very good ERA of 3.60 on the season. Bush has been hit, but he threw a pretty good game back on Aug 16th giving up just 3 earned in 7 innings vs St.Louis. Low scoring game.

Play: Point Spread: -1.5/-105 New York Mets
1 Unit, Take the NY Mets RL -1.5 -105, Matt Chico (5-9 ERA 4.74) has struggled against the Mets this season with an ERA of 6.60 over 15 innings and I look for the Mets to hit him hard again at home tonight. Mike Pelfrey has pitched solid over his last 3 starts with an ERA of 3.31 and the Mets should give him plenty of run support tonight. The Mets are hitting .305 as a team while averaging 7 rpg over their last 7 games played and their opponents are only hitting .244 against them at home this season. We are getting great value here tonight with the Mets on the Runline. Have a great Monday! Vernon Croy

4 Unit Play. #128 Take New Orleans -4 ½ over Tennessee (Monday 8:30 pm ESPN) The Saints have yet to find the magic of last season, but that can happen in the NFL, especially opening up with two games on the road. This will be their first game in the Superdome and is a must win affair in order to save their season. The Titans are coming off a tough loss to Indy, a game in which they had a chance to win with under two minutes to play. The Titans weakness (passing game) plays right into the Saints weakness (pass defense) and thus this is a perfect match-up for New Orleans. QB Brees is too good and has too many weapons to not put it together. New Orleans earns the victory and we collect on the last game of week three.
Best of Luck - Doc's Sports

BLANK CHECK ANGELS RUN LINE - The Angels' offense is absolutely on fire, and on the night after them and the Devil Rays combined to use 12 pitchers in a 10-7 win, I have to look at the Halos here, and lay the run and a half.
First of all, after last night's loss the Devil Rays are 0-3 at Angel Stadium this season and 7-27 since the 2000 season. Second, in looking at who is toeing the rubber tonight, it's easy to see who has the durable pitcher on its side, as John Lackey aims for win No. 17 tonight. It's almost a sure thing that we'll get at least seven innings from him.
In his career, Lackey is 7-1 with a 2.51 ERA and two shutouts against this team, while he's allowed just 18 runs in 64-2/3 innings against the Rays. He's 5-0 with a 1.42 ERA in six career starts at home against them. The right-hander has won five straight starts against Tampa since 2004 – over which time he's allowed a meager nine runs in 38-2/3 frames. And since he's 0-1 in his last three starts, this is the perfect opportunity to give his team a boost.
Next on our list of factors is the Angels have won 11 of their last 14 against Tampa, and clearly has the edge with the way they're batting recently. Last night's win shrunk the Angels' magic number for clinching the division to five.
One final note in this blowout win, the Devil Rays have been blasted by West Coast foes this season, losing by a combined final of 105-84 when visiting Anaheim, Oakland, Colorado, Arizona.
