ESPN Sunday Night Baseball Betting Preview – White Sox at Cubs

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

The Cubs look to avoid being swept by their cross-town rivals on national television.

Chicago White Sox at Chicago Cubs

The Chicago White Sox have won four straight games and five of their last six as they continue a nine-game, 10-day road trip.  It’s only helped to have starting pitchers Jake Peavy, Gavin Floyd and Mark Buehrle scheduled to throw in this series, as the three have combined to go 34-15 with a 3.25 ERA in interleague play.  “We’re getting the good pitching and timely hitting,” White Sox outfielder Juan Pierre said following Saturday’s 2-1 victory.  The lineup is filled with hitters that have been Cubs’ killers in the past, including OF Mark Kotsay batting .405 in his last 10 games against the club and OF Alex Rios being a red-hot 11-for-16 with six RBI in his last four.  The team continues its winning ways against the National League, currently having a 4-1 record this year (+340), after going 12-6 in 2009.

Posted on by Raymond Jenningson in Headlines,NBA

Zig-zagging along. The Lakers and Celtics keep trading wins, and Boston’s latest victory came courtesy of “Big Baby”. Davis scored nine of his 18 points in the fourth quarter as the Celtics tied the series with a 96-89 win Thursday night in Boston.

Sunday MLB Daytime Betting Feature – Mets at Orioles

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

The Mets are on the verge of doing something for possibly the first time in franchise history.

New York Mets at Baltimore Orioles

New York’s pitching staff dominated Baltimore hitters for a second consecutive night, picking up a 3-1 victory on Saturday night and capturing its first road series win of the season.  The Mets lead the majors with a 2.31 ERA in June, leading the team to an 8-2 record during the month (+540).  The offense is hoping to get a contribution from OF Jason Bay in the series finale, as he’s suffering from a 0-for-16 slump.  It’s hard to imagine that he breaks out this afternoon due to his .152 average (5-for-33) in his last nine games at Camden Yards.  The Mets are 4-1 in interleague play this year (+380) and 109-107 overall against the American League since 1997.

Stephen Strasburg Prop Betting Picks

Posted on by Anthony Kustral in Headlines

You could say that Stephen Strasburg had the best major league debut of any pitcher in the history of the MLB. There were only two pitchers, J.R. Richards (in 1971) and Karl Spooner (in 1954), who recorded more strikeouts in their debut than Strasburg did Tuesday. Strasburg had 14, Richards and Spooner 15 each.

Starting Pitchers Burning Up Bettors Money

Posted on by Maddux Sports in Headlines

When you are handicapping baseball one of the easiest traps to fall into is the curse of the big name pitcher. Sometimes guys who have built a reputation up over years of excellence just aren’t performing at a level that matches that reputation. If you bet on them based on what they were or can be and not what they currently are then you’re just throwing away your money. There’s no value in the bets and there’s a much better chance than you expect that you are going to lose. Here’s a look at five guys with big reputations who haven’t been doing bettors any favors this season:

Friday MLB Evening Betting Feature – Phillies at Red Sox

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

Two teams going in opposite directions meet at historic Fenway Park for a three-game interleague set.

Philadelphia Phillies at Boston Red Sox

Philadelphia was shutout for the seventh time this season and now head to face one of the hottest teams in baseball.  The Phillies are on pace for 20 shutouts, which would be the most since being blanked 22 times in 1969.  Even with its offensive troubles of the past few weeks, Philadelphia is the only team in baseball to have four different players with 10 home runs this season.  The club is currently 3-5 this month (-380), after going 11-15 during the 2009 season in June.  Don’t expect things to drastically turn around for the Phillies during interleague play, as they’ve gone 17-30 the past three years (-1,690)

Friday MLB Daytime Betting Feature – White Sox at Cubs

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

The Windy City is still celebrating a Stanley Cup victory, but the focus shifts to Wrigley Field and the return of interleague play.

Chicago White Sox at Chicago Cubs

The Chicago White Sox broke through and won back-to-back games against the Tigers, after going 4-20 this season in games following a victory.  The lineup has also homered in 13 of its last 14 games and rank third in the American League with 70.  The buzz for this series is tempered compared to previous season, mainly due to the poor performance of both teams and the city celebrating a Stanley Cup victory.  Manager Ozzie Guillen summed it up in a direct way by saying, “Very bad teams and the Blackhawks.”  The White Sox are 2-1 in interleague play thus far in 2010 (+100) and have gone 26-13 over the last three years (+1,320)

Thursday MLB Daytime Betting Feature – Angels at Athletics

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

Two of MLB’s best daytime clubs faceoff on Thursday afternoon at the Oakland Coliseum.

Los Angeles Angels at Oakland Athletics

Los Angeles started a new winning streak on Wednesday night, picking up a 7-1 road victory over the Oakland Athletics.  Since May 14th, the Angels lead the American League with an 18-8 record, winning nine of the last 11 contests.  Tonight the Angels play the 11th game (8-2) of a season-long 14-game, 14-day road trip to Kansas City (3-1), Seattle (3-0), Oakland (2-1) and Los Angeles.  Through the first nine games of the trip, the Halos have outscored opponents by a 61-33 margin.  The team moved its record to 7-2 to open the month (+480) and is a dominating 57-29 in June since the 2007 season.  In the Angels five victories over Oakland this season, they have outscored the Athletics 35-9.

Lakers Vs Celtics Game 4 Preview

Posted on by Raymond Jenningson in Headlines,NBA

Kevin Garnett had a vintage “KG” game, but the rest of the Celtics let him down and didn’t give him the victory. Derek Fisher had a vintage “Money” game, and it was enough to beat Boston.

On a night of hard-fought yet sloppy basketball, the Lakers went up 2-1 in the finals and gained back home-court advantage.
