Thursday MLB Betting Preview – Rangers at Angels

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

Angels starter Jered Weaver has managed just two victories at home while ranking second in the majors in strikeouts.

Texas Rangers at Los Angeles Angels

Texas has the second-best record in the majors and handicappers better start paying attention.  The Rangers enjoyed an outstanding June, posting the most wins and best record in the majors.  Part of this success must be attributed to the play of outfielder Josh Hamilton.  He came into Wednesday night’s contest hitting safely in a career-best 22 straight games and hitting .462 with nine home runs and 29 RBI over that span.  Those numbers have led to Hamilton batting an MLB-best .457 in June.  The Rangers have held their own against the Angels, posting wins in 13 of their last 22 games before the series started.  The Rangers are 13-6 against the AL West (+710), but have played just seven games on the road (4-3).

Posted on by Andrew Stevens in Headlines,NBA

It may be hard to believe given all of the hype surrounding LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Joe Johnson, and Amare Stoudemire, but there are actually more than just five free agents in the NBA this year. In fact, this is quite probably the best free agent class ever, and it would even be a pretty good class if those five were sticking with their teams. Beyond those names that are hogging all of the headlines and the attention, here’s a look at 10 very good players who will likely be looking for a new home this summer:

Wednesday MLB Daytime Betting Preview – Astros at Brewers

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

Don’t expect a low-scoring contest in this battle between NL Central foes.

Houston Astros at Milwaukee Brewers

Houston fell 7-5 in the middle game of a three-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers at Miller Park.  The Astros came into the contest winners of four of their last six games, but now find themselves needing a victory to salvage an even record in June (13-14, +450).  Tuesday’s starting pitcher Brett Myers fell to 1-6 on the road, but carries a 4-0 record at home.  The right-hander came into the contest with a 4-1 mark and 1.94 ERA in nine previous appearances against the Brew Crew.  The Astros can definitely look forward to the calendar turning to Wednesday, as the team has captured eight straight games.  They are 9-3 overall on the day of the week, which is their best record of any day (+790).

Philadelphia Phillies at Cincinnati Reds

Philadelphia picked up a 9-6 extra-innings victory in the middle game of this three-game series, while ending Cincinnati relief pitcher Arthur Rhodes record-tying scoreless innings streak for a reliever.  The Phillies guaranteed at least a .500 record in June (13-12, +90 ), as the team has gone 131-134 in the month over the last 10 seasons.  Philadelphia has enjoyed success against the NL Central Division in 2010, moving its record to 12-4, including sweeps of Houston and Milwaukee on the road.  Over their last 13 games (9-4), the Phillies have scored 87 runs and hit a combined .273.  Philadelphia finds itself as a road favorite of -150 to -175 for just the fourth time this season (-120), with the total being 3-1 O/U in those games.

Baseball Betting: Underrated Starting Pitchers Filling Bettors Wallets

Posted on by Kenny Gilbertson in Headlines

One of the biggest mistakes baseball bettors – and especially those who only play the sport casually – make is to only pay attention to the pitchers with names and reputations that they know when baseball betting. Sometimes starting pitchers with names don’t perform up to those names. More significantly, there are a lot of pitchers out there that casual fans have never heard of who are providing serious boosts to the wallets of fans. Here’s a look at eight guys who aren’t exactly household names, but who should be based on the profits they have been producing this year:

Tuesday MLB Betting Feature – Rays at Red Sox

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

The Red Sox picked up tonight’s starter in the offseason for big games like this in the American League East division.

Tampa Bay Rays at Boston Red Sox

Tampa Bay is floundering after starting the season with a fantastic 32-12 mark, going 12-19 over its last 31 games.  “We’ve had a rough patch…as bad as we’ve been playing and we’re only three games back, that’s got to say a lot about where we were,” pitcher Matt Garza said.  The Rays offense must get back on track, hitting .170 over their recent six-game homestand, including just .063 (7-for-50) with runners in scoring position.  Being away from Tropicana Field has been a winning combination for the young squad, posting an impressive 24-12 mark (+990) and averaging 5.6 runs.  This fits well with the road team winning all seven games between these clubs in 2010.  The Rays are surprisingly just 3-4 as a road underdog of +100 to +125 this season (-50).
