The Washington Redskins have already taken on a new identity under new head coach Mike Shanahan, starting with the treatment of former All-Pro DT Albert Haynesworth. Shanahan is a no-nonsense leader who was able to churn out a couple Super Bowl titles with an older John Elway that played three more seasons than new QB Donovan McNabb has under his belt heading into this year before winning his first championship. McNabb gives the Redskins their best quarterback since they won their last Super Bowl with Mark Rypien under center 19 years ago. But Shanahan’s biggest challenge will be trying to provide McNabb with enough weapons to give him a real chance to win in the toughest division in all of football.

The Cardinals have the best home pitcher in baseball going for them in the finale of this short two-game set at Busch Stadium.
Milwaukee Brewers at St. Louis Cardinals
Milwaukee picked up a 3-2 road victory in the first of a two-game set against the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium. Third baseman Casey McGehee was the different in last night’s contest, hitting a two-run homer off Cardinals starter Jaime Garcia. McGehee is hitting .411 with five homers and 19 RBIs in his last 14 games. “He’s on fire,” manager Ken Macha said. “I told him I didn’t want to stand next to him because I was afraid of spontaneous combustion.” Each of the last four Brewers games have been decided by just a single run, as they are 2-2 in that span and 20-14 overall in one-run contests. Since the start of the 2008 season, Milwaukee has the second-highest winning percentage at Busch Stadium of any visiting National League team (17-9, .654). The Brewers are 0-3 as a road underdog of +200 to +225 this season and 1-6 in this situation the last three years (-390).

The New York Giants have loads of talent left over from their Super Bowl championship team that won it all three years ago, and they should be a contender this season if they can just stay healthy. That might be asking too much from a squad which has still managed to go 20-12 over the last two seasons since winning Super Bowl XLII. New York’s rejuvenated defensive line will likely be the key to the season because Justin Tuck, Osi Umenyiora and Mathias Kiwanuka are as good as any pass rushers in the NFL. The Giants are still dealing with several injuries in training camp and saw franchise QB Eli Manning leave their first preseason game against the New York Jets with a gash on his head that required 12 stitches. Manning is expected to be fine, but his injury signifies the kind of beating the team will likely continue to take – and survive – in order to make its way back toward the top among the NFC’s elite teams in 2010.

The Braves handed the Dodgers their worst defeat in three years on Sunday afternoon and now look to capture the series at Turner Field.
Los Angeles Dodgers at Atlanta Braves
Los Angeles suffered a 13-1 blowout defeat in Sunday’s contest against the Braves at Turner Field and have lost 13 of 16 on the road. “We had opportunities, couldn’t get the big hit, nothing you can do about it,” manager Joe Torre said. The loss was the largest margin of defeat this year, as the team is without regulars Casey Blake, Jamey Carroll, Manny Ramirez, Rafael Furcal and Russell Martin. The three runs the Dodgers have scored in the last two games have come on outs, as they are 0-for-20 with runners in scoring position in the series. Los Angeles has posted a 6-5 record after allowing 10 or more runs in a game this season (-90) and are 9-17 in this situation the last three years (-1,340). The club is a disappointing 4-10 as a road underdog of +125 to +150 and the total is 5-9 O/U in those contests. As this series ends, Los Angeles is assured of returning home without consecutive second-half road wins, as they last accomplished this feat on July 3-4 in Arizona.
