Mr East

San Francisco Giants @ Arizona Diamondbacks
Pick: 4 units San Francisco Giants -104

Arizona continues to hang on by a thread in the NL West as they are now 3.5 games behind the Dodgers. The Giants season has long been over, but they have one objective left, and that is to get Tim Lincecum wins, on his way to a potential Cy Young award. Lincecum has had a brilliant season, and is an emerging star in the NL> He has saved his best work for the road where he is an NL best 10-1 with a stelar 2.13 ERA. While the Giants have not been road warriors, that entire equation changes with Lincecum on the hill, as overall they are 12-4 on the season, so basically we get even odds here, with a pitcher that leads his team to 3 wins every 4 games on the road. Randy Johnson has had a reasonable season, but he has not pitched well at home all season, where his ERA is almost 2 runs higher at 4.95. Good spot for the Giants with Lincecum at even money.

Majors

NYY vs CWS

The White Sox play the Yankees in a evening game. The White Sox need this game to stay ahead in the AL East.

Chicago has Pitcher Javier Vasquez on the mound. He is 5-7 with a 4.47 ERA away and is 0-1 with a 10.13 ERA versus the Yankees for the season. The team is 8-7 when he starts.

The Yankees are countering with Pitcher Mike Musina who has a 10-7 record at home with a 3.70 ERA and the team is 11-8 when he starts. In his past start against the White Sox, he is 1-0 with a 2.57 ERA.

This is a great spot for the Yankees to win today.

COLORADO +3 ***PLAY OF THE DAY
COLORADO ML +130

I love how this game sets up!! You have WVU coming off a loss in which they were flat-out dominated by ECU and had their worst offensive performance in over 7 years playing against a Colorado team that needed a pick-6 to get past lowly Eastern Washington!! The public is riding WVU because they think WVU's offensive showing was a fluke and they will rebound big but not so fast!! Like last night's match up between Louisville and K-State Colorado matches up very well with WVU. The Buffs are a young but talented group that is aggressive and physical and not only matches WVU's speed but has a huge size advantage!! This will present problems for WVU once again!! We also catch Colorado in a very rare spot - coming off 11+ days rest and a SU win and playing an opponent who is also coming off 11+ days rest but off a SU loss - and dating back to 1988 this has only happened 9 times and the home team is a PERFECT 9-0 SU/ATS and has won straight up by an average of 21 points/gm and crushed the spread by an average of 18 points/gm!! Only ONCE did the home fail to win by more than double digits!! Certain home teams coming off a non-conference SU win are also a PERFECT 11-0 SU/ATS since 2001 when facing an opponent coming off a non-conference game!! What's impressive is that those teams won SU by an average of 19 points/gm and only once did they fail to win by double digits!! A deeper look also reveals that 3 times the home team was a 3 point dog and when this happened the home team was 3-0 SU winning by an average of 26 points/gm - this is not a typo - 26 points/gm!! I love the match up and I love the deep and hidden angles and don't be surprised if WVU gets dominated tonight on national TV!! COLORADO WINS BIG!!

Wunderdog

We rate each pick 1 to 5 units with 5 being the strongest play. Risk 1% of your bankroll per unit (never risk more than 5% of total bankroll on any pick).

Game: Seattle at Kansas City
Pick: 4 units on Kansas City -201 (risk 4 to win 2)

The Royals are currently playing well, and have the good feeling of a team out of any playoff contention as they have won six straight, which makes it fun to go to the ballpark. The same can't be said for Seattle which has now lost seven straight in a row and nine straight on the road. Zack Grienke has pitched to a 2.21 ERA over his last six starts, and has not allowed more than three runs in any of those six outings. Ryan Feieraband has not pitched well at all, as he brings a 5.79 ERA into this one with an even-worse 9.88 road ERA. The Royals may be in last place in the AL Central, but they have more wins against left-handed pitching than any other team at 32-22. I like Royals for the sweep.

Game: Philadelphia at Atlanta
Pick: 3 units on Atlanta +185 (risk 3 to win 5.6)

Atlanta has been completely lost on the road, but they enter this one with the same home record (41-36) as the Phillies’ road mark. Cole Hammels has pitched well this season, but in his last six road starts the Phillies have managed just two wins. Consider those two wins were over the worst two teams in the NL in Washington and San Diego - he hasn't beaten a decent team on the road since before the All-Star break. Jo Jo Reyes has not pitched well this season, but his last home start he allowed just one run and four hits in six innings, and may have found something to build on. The oddsmakers like to pile on the chalk with teams in a pennant race, turning the value the other way, so I'll back the Braves here.

Game: New York Mets at Washington
Pick: 3 units on Washington +183 (risk 3 to win 5.5)

The Mets’ bullpen is in shambles. They have already blown 27 saves on the season and leading 8-2 last night, they needed eight relievers to hold off the Nats, winning 9-7. Johan Santana has been robbed of six wins this season, because the bullpen could not close the game. It has lead to him throwing more pitches (112.5 avg in his last six), than Mets’ ownership would like to see, and may start costing him down the stretch. The high pitch count still hasn't gotten him past the seventh inning in any of the games and he has left to a no decision in three of them. Tim Redding has started 19 games in which he allowed three or less runs, and the Nats have won four of his last five starts. The Mets fell apart last year and show signs of doing so again - blowing a four-game lead in just a week, and their pen can't be trusted. The value is on the Nats here.

Locksmith Sports

1 Unit on NY Yankees -135

The Yanks have taken 2 of the first 3 games from the White Sox in this 4-game set and I like them to pick up the series win at home tonight behind the Moose. The White Sox are 2-7 in the last 9 meetings in New York while the Yankees are 5-0 in Mussina's last 5 home starts vs. the White Sox. The Yankees are 8-1 in Mussina's last 9 starts vs. a team with a winning record and 7-1 in Mussina's last 8 starts vs. the American League Central. The White Sox are a poor 6-16 in their last 22 road games vs. a team with a winning record and also just 3-11 in their last 14 during game 4 of a series. They couldn't find themselves at a worse place in the rotation tonight either as they are 0-7 in Vazquez's last 7 starts vs. the American League East and 0-6 in his last 6 starts vs. a team with a winning record. Take the Yanks.

Johnny Guild

West Virginia Mountaineers at Colorado Buffaloes

Mountaineers’ defense has been in turmoil allowing an average of 392.5 yards a game and could have problems with Colorado’s quarterback Cody Hawkins, who has passed for an average of 237.5 yards this season. I believe this will be a close battle in Boulder. West Virginia as usual will make this a ground fight, but the Buffalos’ defense have been effective in stopping the run.

Colorado Buffaloes +3
