Monday MLB Daytime Betting Preview – Cubs at Pirates

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

A scheduled off-day for both teams has turned into a Monday afternoon contest due to a rainout on Wednesday.

Chicago Cubs at Pittsburgh Pirates

Chicago is playing its ninth game (2-6) in a stretch of 12-straight against NL Central opponents that lasts through June 10.  The Cubs are currently 1-4 on its current road trip, after dropping Sunday’s contest, 6-3, in Houston to the Astros.  The defeat dropped the Cubs to a 3-23 mark when scoring three or fewer runs this season, while they are 22-7 when scoring four or more.  Chicago is slated to face a southpaw on Monday, which has been a recipe of success in the last four opportunities.  The team is actually hitting .267 overall against lefties this season, a mark that is 12 points higher than its overall season average (.255).

A battle of NL Central opponents is featured to close out the week of MLB action.

Milwaukee Brewers at St. Louis Cardinals

Milwaukee is playing the sixth game of its current seven-game road trip to Florida (1-3) and St. Louis (0-2).  The Brewers placed themselves in an early hole by allowing four runs in the first inning in a 5-4 loss to the Cardinals, as the team has allowed 49 runs in the first frame this season – the most of any inning.  “There’s been a bunch of games when we’ve been behind,” Brewers manager Ken Macha said.  “I’ve got no answers for that.”  The team is getting use to the idea of scheduling left-handed starters in 2010, with Sunday’s matchup representing the 30th game they’ve scheduled a southpaw against the opposition.  This represents a challenge against a Cardinals’ club that is 9-6 versus lefties this season (+80), but the total is 5-9-1 O/U in those games.

Lakers Vs Celtics Game 2 Preview

The Celtics need to pick it up if they don’t want to fly back to Boston down 2-0. They didn’t show enough hustle in Thursday’s game and were outmatched by a more physical Lakers team. Kobe Bryant drove to the basket all night and the Celtics weren’t able to stop him. He ended up with 30 points, seven rebounds and six assists.

Sunday MLB Daytime Betting Feature – Marlins at Mets

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

The Mets are currently the best home team in baseball and look to complete a three-game sweep.

Florida Marlins at New York Mets

Florida has dropped the first two games of its current road series against the New York Mets, after having a previous six-game winning streak against them.  The Marlins now find themselves with a 28-29 record heading into Sunday’s contest (-350).  “Bottom line is we had some opportunities to get back in the game and we’re not swinging it right now,” manager Fredi Gonzalez said.  “We’ll come back tomorrow.”  Even after losing to a left-handed pitcher on Saturday, Florida still possesses a dominating 13-7 record against southpaws this season (+570).  The Marlins still remain two games over .500 against division foes with a 13-11 record (+50) and have a good chance of grabbing the series finale with a 6-2 mark on Sunday (+460).

Saturday Night MLB Betting Preview

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

Two of the hottest teams in Major League Baseball headline Saturday night’s betting card.

Atlanta Braves at Los Angeles Dodgers

Atlanta’s nine-game winning streak came to an end on Friday night, dropping a 5-4 decision to Los Angeles at Dodger Stadium.  Over the past 25 games, the Braves have gone 19-6, tied with today’s opponent for the best mark in baseball during that span.  1B Troy Glaus has led the team offensively since May 1st, leading the National League with 33 RBI and ranking fourth with a .339 batting average during that span.  This has proven important with star 3B Chipper Jones out with an injured right finger the past two games.  “I still feel pain when it bends either way,” Jones said.  “I’m still getting treatments and I’ll see what they say.”  Atlanta batters have collected an MLB-best 247 walks, which could prove effective against its opposing hurler tonight, as Chad Billingsley has walked 16 batters in his 24.2 innings of work against the Braves.  The Braves check in with a 10-12 record this season when following a loss (-320).

Saturday MLB on FOX Betting Preview

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

The Rangers are marked as a home underdog on Saturday afternoon, as they host the best team in Major League Baseball.

Tampa Bay Rays at Texas Rangers

Tampa Bay is currently 2-2 on its current road trip after dropping the series opener at Texas, 9-6, at the Ballpark in Arlington.  Friday night’s defeat dropped the team to 26-3 on the year when producing five or more runs at the plate.  The Rays are still a dominating 21-7 on the road (+1,400), as only six major league teams have had a better road record after 28 games since 1900.  The team has outscored opponents 166-89 away from Tropicana Field.  Tampa is now 2-1 this month, but has compiled an impressive 37-18 record over the last three years during June (+1,790).  Total bettors need to be aware that the pitching staff has allowed only 198 runs this season, the fewest in the American League (25-28 O/U).

San Diego Padres Vs Philadelphia Phillies Preview

Posted on by Jeff Mattinger in Headlines

San Diego comes into this weekend series winners of eight of its last 11 games, including a successful 6-3 homestand.  “We just want to keep plugging away,” Padres OF Tony Gwynn said.  The Padres dropped five of the seven games against the Phillies last season and look to gain revenge of being swept at Petco Park over that span.  This is certainly a different San Diego team, a unit that has posted a 29-15 record over its last 44 games.  The Padres have been especially good against winning ball clubs, compiling a 16-6 (+1,200) mark that’s far-different from the 74-97 (-590) record over the last three seasons.  When looking to play a total on Friday night, it’s interesting to note that the Padres have gone 7-14-2 O/U away from its pitcher friendly ballpark.

Braves Vs Dodgers Late Game Preview

Posted on by Kevin Woods in Headlines

Atlanta currently sits 2 ½ games up in the NL East after completing a sweep of the Phillies, with a 2-1 victory on Wednesday.  In a span of 14 games, the Braves have climbed from last place in the division and 6 ½ games back, to its current position.  The Braves own a Major League-best 19-6 record at home this season, but now head west with its current 12-16 mark away from Turner Field (-490).  The team leads the majors with 237 walks and its .348 on-base percentage leads the National League.  Rookie OF Jason Heyward leads the team with 10 homers and is batting .287 with a .412 on-base percentage.  “The kid never ceases to amaze you,” manager Bobby Cox said.
