6* World Series Game 2 *CA$H COW* on Tigers -122
The Key: I missed with the Tigers last night as Verlander threw his first dud in quite some time, but I'll come right back with them tonight with Fister on the bump. The Tigers are 7-2 in his last 9 starts, including a perfect 2-0 in his playoff starts (1.35 ERA in the postseason). The Giants, meanwhile, are 0-3 in Bumgarner's last 3 starts (10.50 ERA in these games). Plus, the Tigers are 4-0 in their last 4 playoff games as a favorite of -110 to -150. The Giants are 1-4 in their last 5 games as a home underdog of +110 to +150 and 2-8 in Bumgarner's last 10 starts as an underdog. Bet Detroit.

7* World Series Game 1 *HEAVY HITTER* on Tigers -163
The Key: Zito is pitching better than he has in years, but he's still no Verlander. The Detroit ace is 7-0 in his last 7 starts and has allowed more than 1 run only once during this stretch. He allowed 2 runs in the lone exception. The Tigers are 4-0 in Verlander's last 4 starts vs. teams from the National League West and 5-0 in his last 5 starts after allowing 2 runs or less in their previous game. The Tigers are 5-0 in their last 5 overall, 6-0 in their last 6 playoff games as a favorite and 4-0 in their last 4 playoff games as a favorite of -151 to -200. Verlander has a WHIP of 1.017 while Zito's WHIP is 1.392. That should be a concern for the Giants as the Tigers are 7-0 in their last 7 games vs. a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30. Take the Tigers.

6* NLCS Game 7 *CA$H COW* on Giants -132
The Key: The Giants get the call at home in Game 7 as they have the momentum on their side following back-to-back dominant performances. Kyle Lohse has had a great season but the Cards can't be trusted with him on the hill tonight as they are just 8-18 in his last 26 road starts against teams with a winning record. The Giants have won each of Cain's last 2 and 3 of his last 4 home starts against the Cardinals. The Giants lost to Lohse with Cain on the mound in Game 3 but that was in St. Louis. Now, Cain's at home where he has an ERA of 2.18 this season. Lohse's 3.27 road ERA pales in comparison. Take the Giants.

6* NLCS Game 6 *CA$H COW* on Giants -120
The Key: The Giants have the edge at home with Vogelsong on the hill. They are 14-4 in his last 18 starts as a favorite, 11-3 in his last 14 home starts and 10-2 in his last 12 starts as a home favorite. The Cardinals are 1-4 in Carpenter's last 5 starts, 1-4 in his last 5 road starts and 1-6 in his last 7 starts as a road underdog of +110 to +150. Take the Giants.

6* NLCS Game 5 *CA$H COW* on Giants +147
The Key: The Giants are 12-0 in Zito's last 12 starts, 7-0 in his last 7 starts as an underdog, 6-0 in his last 6 road starts, 6-0 in his last 6 starts versus a team with a winning record, 9-0 in his last 9 starts with the total set at 7.0-8.5 and 4-0 in his last 4 starts versus the National League Central. Look for the Giants to stave off elimination behind a strong performance from Zito.

6* ALCS Game 4 *CA$H COW* on Yankees -115
The Key: The Yankees are too good of a team to lose four in a row to the Tigers. They've only loss four straight games twice all season. Last night's rainout has allowed them to refocus, and I fully expect them to bounce back here behind a dominant performance from Sabathia. The Yankee are 5-0 in Sabathia's last 5 starts and have won those by an average of 4.4 runs as he has held the opposition to 2 earned runs or fewer in each. The Yankees are also 3-0 in Sabathia's starts against the Tigers this season and have won each of those by at least 4 runs as he has held them to 3 earned runs or less in each.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Cardinals -120
The Key: Expect the Cardinals to bounce back strong this afternoon as the series shifts to St. Louis where they have won 35 of their last 52 games. Lohse has a lower ERA then Cain on the season (2.82 compared to 2.90), a lower ERA at home than Cain has on the road (2.33 compared to 3.62), a lower ERA over their last 3 starts (3.37 compared to 4.59) and a lower career ERA against the Giants/Cardinals (3.78 compared to 4.94). The Cardinals are 7-0 in their last 7 games following a loss and 15-5 in Lohse's last 20 starts as a home favorite. The Giants are 3-7 in Cain's last 10 starts versus a team with a winning record. Take St. Louis.

6* ALCS Game 3 *CA$H COW* on Tigers -1.5 +125
The Key: It's Verlander time. Detroit is 6-0 in his last 6 starts and has won those by 3.7 runs on average. It is 10-0 in his last 10 home starts and has won those by 2.9 runs on average. The Tigers are also 15-0 in his last 15 home starts in the second half of the season versus teams with a winning mark. They have won these games by an average of 3.5 runs. They are also 14-0 in his last 14 home starts against teams that have won 54-62% of their games. They have won these games by an average of 2.7 runs. Bet Detroit on the run line.

6* NLCS Game 2 *CA$H COW* on Giants -111
The Key: The Giants dropped Game 1 but have been resilient. We saw that last series when they won 3 in a row in Cincy after dropping the first 2 at home. While this San Francisco club never counts itself out, it would prefer not to have to do all its damage on the road again. The Giants are 14-5 in their last 19 games following a loss, 19-9 in Vogelsong's last 28 starts, 13-4 in his last 17 starts as a favorite, 10-3 in his last 13 home starts and 9-2 in his last 11 starts as a home favorite.

6* MLB Playoffs *CA$H COW* on Giants -130
The Key: Lynn has had a nice season but Bumgarner is more proven. Plus, Bumgarner has a lower ERA than Lynn on the season. His 2.61 home ERA is far superior to the 3.92 ERA Lynn has posted on the road. Lynn has had no success against the Giants. He's 0-2 lifetime with an ERA of 7.15 against them. Bumgarner is 2-2 with a 3.62 ERA against St. Louis. The Giants are 20-6 in Bumgarner's last 26 home starts, 29-11 in his last 40 starts as a favorite and 21-6 in his last 27 starts as a home favorite. Take San Francisco.

6* MLB Playoffs *CA$H COW* on Nationals -132
The Key: The Nats are 3-0 in Gonzalez's last 3 starts, 4-0 in his last 4 starts as a home favorite and 6-0 in his last 6 starts when their opponent scores 2 runs or less in their previous game. Washington is also 11-0 in his 11 starts against the NL Central this season (2 of those wins came against the Cards). The Cardinals are 0-5 in Wainwright's last 5 starts as a road underdog and 2-9 in their last 11 meetings at Washington. Nats advance.

6* MLB Playoffs *CA$H COW* on Tigers -140
The Key: The A's have been a great story this season, but their inability to solve Verlander ends their season tonight. The Tigers are 5-0 in Verlander's last 5 starts and 4-0 in his last 4 starts against the A's. The Athletics are 0-5 in Parker's last 5 starts with the total set at 6.5 or lower. The Tigers are 4-0 in their last 4 playoff games as a favorite while the Athletics are 0-4 in their last 4 playoff games as an underdog. Bet Detroit.

7* MLB Playoffs *HEAVY HITTER* on Orioles +1.5 -130
The Key: Really like the Orioles catching 1.5 runs at an affordable price with Gonzalez on the bump. Baltimore is 11-4 in his starts this season and 7-2 in his starts as a road underdog on the year. The Orioles are a perfect 4-0 in his last 4 starts, and he is 2-0 in 2 career starts at Yankee Stadium with an ERA of 2.63. He outdueled Kuroda in his most recent start there Aug. 31, giving up no runs on 4 hits in 7 innings of work while striking out 9 and walking 1 in a 6-1 victory. Take the Orioles on the run line.

7* MLB Playoffs *HEAVY HITTER* on A's -132
The Key: The Tigers got loose for 5 runs in their game 2 win, but the Athletics are 4-0 in their last 4 when their opponent enters off a game in which it scored 5 runs or more. The Tigers are 0-4 in their last 4 playoff games as an underdog of +110 to +150 and 0-4 in Sanchez's last 4 starts against a team with a winning record. The Athletics are 4-0 in Anderson's last 4 starts in the favorite role. The Tigers have dropped 7 of their last 9 playoffs games on the road, and I expect their postseason road struggles to continue against an Oakland club that has won 39 of its last 54 at home.

6* MLB Playoffs *CA$H COW* on Cardinals -111
The Key: I expect the Cards to bounce back this afternoon. They haven't lost consecutive games in nearly a month and are 5-0 in their last 5 games following defeat. St. Louis' Garcia enters the postseason on top of his game, as evidenced by the 2.29 ERA he's posted over his last 3 starts. He poses some major problems for a Washington club that is 0-5 in its last 5 road contests vs. southpaw starters. The Nats' Zimmerman has had a great season but he has a 9.12 ERA in 5 career starts against St. Louis. Garcia has a 3.74 ERA in 4 career starts against Washington. Bet the Red Birds.

7* MLB Playoffs *HEAVY HITTER* on Giants -149
The Key: The Reds are 0-4 in Arroyo's last 4 starts, 0-6 in his last 6 starts as an underdog of +110 to +150, 0-5 in his last 5 starts vs. a team with a winning record, 0-4 in his last 4 road starts vs. the Giants and 0-4 in his last 4 starts with the total set at 7.0-8.5. The Giants are 11-0 in Bumgarner's last 11 home starts with the total set at 7.0-8.5 and 6-0 in his last 6 starts on 7 or more days' rest. The Giants bounce back strong.

6* MLB Playoffs *CA$H COW* on Tigers -1.5 +120
The Key: Verlander is 4-0 in his last 4 starts with those wins coming by an average of 3.5 runs. The Tigers are 9-0 in his last 9 home starts with those wins coming by an average of 3.0 runs. Verlander is also 3-0 in his last 3 starts against Oakland with those wins coming by an average of 3.0 runs. He's given up just 1 run in his last 21 innings against the A's. Expect another dominant performance here. Take the Tigers on the run line.

7* MLB Wild Card *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -165
The Key: The Braves are 23-0 in Medlen's last 23 starts, 13-0 in his last 13 home starts, 9-0 in his last 9 starts versus clubs with a winning mark and 6-0 in his last 6 starts when valued as a favorite of -151 to -200. Plus, the command Medlen has shown lately is a great sign. The Braves are 11-0 in his starts over the last 3 seasons when he enters a start following back-to-back outings with 1 walk or none. The Braves are also 12-0 in his starts over the last 3 seasons when he enters a start following an outing in which he gave up 1 earned run or none. Take Atlanta.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on D-backs -1.5 +100
The Key: The D-backs have never lost to the Rockies at home with ace Ian Kennedy on the mound. They are 6-0 lifetime in this spot and have won these by an average of 2.83 runs. The D-backs are 7-0 in Kennedy's last 7 starts versus the Rockies overall and have won these by an average of 2.86 runs. Kennedy enters this contest pitching his best ball of the season, and Arizona is 6-0 in his last 6 starts as a result. It has won these by 2.33 runs on average. The Rockies, on the other hand, are 0-5 in Francis' last 5 starts and have lost those by an average of 4.0 runs per game. With their ace on the hill and a chance to notch a winning season, I'll take the Snakes on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Mets -145
The Key: The Mets are 5-0 in their last 5 games as a favorite, and I expect this trend to continue with Dickey on the hill. The Mets 9-0 in Dickey

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on D-backs -1.5 +106
The Key: The Rockies 0-9 in their last 9 on the road and have lost those by an an average of 4.0 runs. Pomeranz has struggled against the NL West all season (0-7 with a 7.24 ERA in 10 starts), and the Rockies are 0-4 in his last 4 starts vs. the division. They have dropped these by 4.75 runs on average. They are also 0-2 in his 2 career starts versus Arizona, losing these by 6.5 runs on average. The D-backs, on the other hand, are 4-0 lifetime in Miley's starts against the Rockies and have won these by an average of 5.75 runs. Take the Snakes on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -1.5
The Key: The Braves are 22-0 in Medlen's last 22 starts and have won them by an average of 3.4 runs. They are also 4-0 lifetime in his starts against the Mets and have won those by an average of 5.0 runs. Bet the Braves on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Tigers -1.5 -140
The Key: The Tigers are 3-0 in Verlander's last 3 starts, winning each of those by 4 runs while he has posted a 0.86 ERA. The Tigers are 4-0 in Verlander's last 4 starts as a road favorite of -200 or greater, winning these by an average of 2.3 runs. They are also also 6-0 in their last 6 games as a road favorite of -200 or greater, winning these by an average of 2.0 runs. Detroit is 7-0 in Verlander's last 7 starts against the Twins and has won these by an average of 4.3 runs. He has held the Twins to 1 earned run or fewer in 4 of his last 5 starts against them. Lastly, the Twins are 0-4 in Walters' last 4 starts as a home underdog and have lost these by 2.0 runs on average. Take the Tigers on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Brewers -1.5 -125
The Key: The Brewers are 11-0 in Gallardo's last 11 starts, winning them by an average of 3.9 runs. Gallardo is 10-0 in his last 10 starts versus Houston, and the Brew Crew have won these by an average of 5.7 runs. Milwaukee is 13-0 in Gallardo's starts in the 2nd half of the season over the last 3 seasons versus teams that are outscored by an average of 0.5 or more runs/game. It has won these by an average of 4.6 runs. The Brewers are 15-0 as a favorite of -200 or more over the last 2 seasons, winning these games by an average of 4.9 runs, and 13-0 in home games in the 2nd half of the season versus NL teams allowing 4.8 or more runs/game over the last 2 seasons, winning these by an average of 3.2 runs. Bet Milwaukee on the run line.

6* MLB *CA$H COW* on Giants -114
The Key: The Giants have clinched but are showing no signs of slowing down. And the last thing Zito wants to do is enter the postseason with a poor start to put some doubt in the mind of Bruce Bochy. I expect Zito to be very focused here. The Giants are 9-0 in his last 9 starts, 5-0 in his last 5 home starts, 4-0 in his last 4 starts as a favorite, 6-0 in Zitos last 6 starts vs. the National League West and 5-0 in his last 5 starts vs. Diamondbacks.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Cardinals -1.5 -117
The Key: The Cardinals are 4-0 in their last 4 games and have won these by an average of 3.25 runs. The Astros, meanwhile, are 0-3 in their last 3 games and have lost these by an average of 5.33 runs. The Astros are 0-10 in their last 10 versus St. Louis and have dropped these by 4.8 runs on average. They are also 0-6 in Norris' last 6 starts with an average losing margin of 2.5 runs in these games. Further bolstering this situation is the fact that Houston hasn't been able to manufacture runs by playing small ball when matched up against teams with good defensive catchers. In fact, it is 0-13 in the second half of this season versus teams with good defensive catchers that hold opponents to 0.5 or less stolen bases per game. It has lost to these teams by an average of 5.2 runs. Bet St. Louis on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -1.5 -117
The Key: The Marlins are 0-4 in their last 4 overall (2.25-run avg losing margin) and 0-6 in their last 6 on the road (2.00-run avg losing margin).

The Braves are also 4-0 in his 4 career starts against the Marlins (3.75-run avg winning margin. Take Atlanta on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Tigers -1.5 -119
The Key: The Tigers are badly in need of a win after getting swept by the Twins in a double header yesterday. Fortunately, they have their ace on the mound. The Tigers are 8-0 in Verlander's last 8 home starts and have won those by an average of 2.9 runs. Verlander is 14-2 with a 2.76 ERA lifetime against KC. I expect him to shut down the Royals and for the sticks to take care of the rest. Take Detroit on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Rangers -138
The Key: The Rangers have dropped the first two in this series, but that won't keep me off them here as they are 11-3 in their last 14 following defeats in the first two games of a series. Plus, the Mariners are 0-4 in their last four during the third game of a series. The Mariners are 0-5 in Vargas' last 5 starts as a home underdog and 0-4 in his last 4 home starts vs. a team with a winning record. The Rangers are 6-0 in Dempster's last 6 starts as a favorite and 4-0 in his last 4 starts vs. a team with a losing record. Bet the Rangers.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Rangers -165
The Key: The Rangers went down Friday, but they are an awesome 11-0 in their last 11 games following a loss. I expect them to bounce back strong behind Harrison, who is 9-0 in his last 9 starts against the Mariners. He is 5-0 all-time in his starts in Seattle. The Mariners are 0-4 in Beavan's last 4 starts versus a team with a winning record. Take Texas.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Giants -150
The Key: The Giants are 5-0 in their last 5 home games, 7-0 in their last 7 games as a favorite, 6-0 in their last 6 when their opponent allows 5 runs or more in their previous game and 6-0 in their last 6 after scoring 5 runs or more in their previous game. They are also 4-0 in their last 4 home games vs. a right-handed starter and 11-0 in home games vs. a starting pitcher who lasts less than 5 innings per start over the last 3 seasons. Bet the Giants.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Giants -150
The Key: The Rockies are 0-5 in their last 5 overall, 0-4 in their last 4 games after losing the first 3 games of a series, 0-5 in their last 5 after scoring 2 runs or less in their previous game, 0-4 in their last 4 games as a road underdog of +110 to +150, 0-4 in De La Rosa's last 4 road starts vs. a team with a winning record and 0-5 in their last 5 road games vs. a left-handed starter. The Giants are 6-0 in their last 6 games as a favorite, 5-0 in their last 5 after scoring 5 runs or more in their previous game, 4-0 in their last 4 home games, 5-0 in Zito's last 5 starts vs. a team with a losing record, 5-0 in his last 5 starts vs. the National League West, 5-0 in his last 5 starts after scoring 5 runs or more in their previous game, 4-0 in his last 4 home starts and 8-0 in his last 8 starts. The Giants are also 5-0 in the last 5 meetings in this series.

7* MLB Game of the Month on Braves -135
The Key: The Braves are a perfect 20-0 in Medlen's last 20 starts, 12-0 in his last 12 starts against division opponents, 12-0 in his last 12 starts following a Quality Start in his last appearance, 10-0 in his last 10 starts after giving up 1 or less earned runs in his last outing and 12-0 in his last 12 starts following a team loss the previous game. The Braves are also 12-0 in his last 12 starts in the 2nd half of the season versus NL teams with an on base percentage .325 or worse and 11-0 in his last 11 starts in the 2nd half of the season versus teams that strike out 7 or more times per game. Plus, the Braves are a perfect 3-0 in his 3 career starts versus the Marlins. The Marlins 0-4 Johnson

The Mariners are 0-5 in Noesi's last 5 starts, 0-5 in his last 5 home starts and 0-5 in his last 5 starts as a home underdog. The Mariners are 0-6 in their last 6 games as a home underdog of +110 to +150 and 0-5 in their last 5 games against the Orioles. Bet Baltimore.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on D-backs -116
The Key: The D-backs have lost the first two games of this series and they're favored with Corbin on the hill, who has lost his last 3 decisions? This really speaks to how poorly Vogelsong has pitched. He has been hit hard in his last 3 (8.79 ERA L3 starts), and nobody hit him harder than Arizona in this stretch. The Snakes tagged him for 6 runs and knocked him out in 3 1-3 innings. Corbin has a solid 3.60 home ERA. I expect a solid performance from him and for the D-back sticks to take care of the rest.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Phillies -159
The Key: The Astros are 14-56 in their last 70 overall and 6-23 in their last 29 home games. They are 0-4 in Keuchel's last 4 starts and 1-10 in his last 11 starts. They are 0-5 in Keuchel's last 5 starts vs. a team with a winning record, 0-8 in his last 8 starts following a team loss in their previous game and 0-7 in his last 7 starts after allowing 5 runs or more in their previous game. The Phillies are 4-0 in Kendrick's last 4 starts vs. a team with a losing record, and I expect him to outduel Keuchel here.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -162
The Key: I've been riding Medlen since he broke into the starting lineup this season, and I'm not going to stop riding him now. The Braves are 19-0 in his last 19 starts. Atlanta enters off a loss, but it is 11-0 in Medlen's last 11 starts following a team loss. The Braves are also 9-0 in his last 9 starts versus team with a winning record, 11-0 in his last 11 starts in the second half of the team versus NL team with an on base percentage .325 or worse and 10-0 in his last 10 starts in the second half of the season versus team that strike out 7 or more times/game. The Braves are 10-0 in his last 10 starts vs. the National League East and 6-0 in his last 6 starts as a favorite of -151 to -200. The Nationals are 0-4 in Detwiler's last 4 starts as a road underdog of +151 to +200. Braves money line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Rangers -1.5 -108

The Brewers are 8-0 in Gallardo's last 8 starts, 5-0 in his last 5 starts on regular rest (4 days), 8-0 in his last 8 starts in the third game of a series and 11-0 in his last 11 home starts in the second half of the season versus an an NL team with a batting average of .255 or worse. Maholm is 0-6 on the money line in his last 6 starts against teh Brewers. Take Milwaukee.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Rangers -1.5 -120
The Key: The Indians are 0-5 in Jimenez's last 5 starts (3.0-run avg. losing margin) and 0-8 in his last 8 road starts (3.6-run avg. losing margin). They are also 0-4 in their last 4 in Arlington (4.8-run avg. losing margin). The Rangers are 5-0 in Harrison's last 5 starts as a favorite of -200 or greater (4.2-run avg. winning margin). Bet the Rangers on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Nationals -144
The Key: The Nats have won 16 of their last 21 versus the Mets and are 5-0 in their last 5 against them in New York. The Mets are just 6-21 in their last 27 home games, 1-10 in their last 11 games as a home underdog and 0-4 in their last 4 games vs. a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. The Nationals are 21-7 in Gonzalez's last 28 starts, 10-2 in his last 12 road starts, 5-0 in his last 5 starts following a Quality Start in his last appearance and 4-0 in his last 4 starts as a favorite.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Cardinals -119
The Key: Despite losing the first 2 games of this series, the Cards are still 21-8 in their last 29 at home, 18-8 in their last 26 vs. Milwaukee and 9-3 in their last 12 at home against the Brewers. Milwaukee is just 6-14 in Marcum's lst 20 starts, 2-7 in his last 9 road starts and 1-4 in his last 5 starts vs. the Cardinals. It's also important to note that the Brewers are 0-4 in Marcum's last 4 starts as an underdog of +110 to +150 and 0-4 in his last 4 starts falling in the third game of a series.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -160
The Key: The Braves are 18-0 in Medlen's last 18 starts, and they are a perfect 3-0 all-time in his starts against the Mets. Medlen has a 0.54 ERA in 7 starts this season and a 0.00 ERA over his last 3 starts.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Cardinals -133
The Key: Gallardo has pitched much better over the last 5 weeks, but he just got rocked his last time out, and he has never fared well against St. Louis. He's 1-10 with an ERA of 7.06 in 14 career starts against the Cards. He's 0-6 in his last 6 starts versus the Cardinals, and the Brewers have dropped those contests by an average of 4.7 runs. Lohse (14-2, 2.81) has won both of his starts versus Milwaukee this season in impressive fashion. Bet St. Louis.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Nationals -1.5 -106
The Key: The Cubs are 0-5 in their last 5 games with an average losing margin of 4.0 runs in these contests. They are also 0-7 in their last 7 road games losing those by an average of 3.4 runs. The Cubs are 0-9 this season in road games following 5 or more straight defeats, losing in this situation by an average of 2.6 runs. Germano is 0-3 on the money in his last 3 starts and those losses have come by 6.0 runs on average. He's also 0-8 on the money line in his last 8 road starts with those losses coming by 3.4 runs on average. Lastly, the Nats are 4-0 in their last 4 games with an average winning margin of 4.0 runs. Nats on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Nationals -1.5 -113
The Key: Gio Gonzalez has been tough on everyone this season, but he's especially been tough on the NL Central. The Nationals are 8-0 in his starts against NL Central foes this season, and they have won these games by an average of 3.0 runs. The Cubs, meanwhile, are 0-6 in Chris Volstad's 6 road starts this season, and they have lost these by an average of 3.7 runs. Bet Washington on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Pirates -1.5 +105
The Key: Fading the Pirates with Lyles on the mound as a road underdog of +151 to +200 has produced a 9-0 mark all-time that has won by an average of 3.4 runs. The Astros are also 0-4 this season in Lyle's road starts in the 2nd game of a series. They have dropped these by an average of 4.3 runs. Houston is even 0-11 in Lyle's road starts vs. an NL team with an on base percentage .315 or worse over the last 2 seasons. It has lost these by an average score of 7.5 to 3.1. Pound Pittsburgh on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -1.5 -108
The Key: The Braves are a perfect 17-0 in Kris Medlen's last 17 starts, winning those by an average of 3.4 runs. 6 of those wins have come this season, and he has posted an ERA of just 0.66 in those outings. He has a 0.00 over his last 3 starts and the Braves have won his last 10 starts by 2 runs or more. Bet the Braves on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Angels -166
The Key: The Angels are 5-0 in their last 5 overall and 8-0 in their last 8 games as a favorite. They are 8-0 in Weaver's last 8 road starts and 4-0 in his last 4 starts as a road favorite of -151 to -200. The Mariners are 0-5 in their last 5 vs. a team with a winning record. This 30-0 angle is strengthened by the fact the Angels have won 38 of the last 53 meetings overall and 35 of the last 52 in Seattle. The Angels are also 9-2 in Weaver's last 11 starts vs. the Mariners.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Giants -155
The Key: Love the Giants today with a rested Lincecum on the bump. He has been lights out on the road of late, allowing 2 runs or less in each of his last 3 road starts. Plus, the Giants are 4-0 in his last 4 starts coming on 5 days' rest. The Cubs are 0-4 in Germano's last 4 starts as an underdog, and he has been rocked in each of his last 2 outings. The Cubs are 8-22 in their last 30 overall and 5-17 when playing on Saturday this season. The Giants are 8-3 in their last 11 overall, 6-1 in their last 7 road games and 5-1 in the last 6 against the Cubs.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Rangers -153
The Key: The Indians are 0-14 this season after hitting .225 or worse over a 10-game span. They are also 0-4 in their last 4 series openers, 0-5 in their last 5 home contests and 0-6 in their last 6 Friday matchups. The Tribe is 0-3 in Jimenez's last 3 starts, during which he has posted an ERA of 8.59. The Rangers have won 22 of 28 versus the Indians, including 12 of their last 15 in Cleveland. They are 4-1 in Dempster's starts since he joined the club.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Giants -176
The Key: I don't play favorites this large often in baseball, but I believe the Giants are well worth it here. The Astros are 8-47 in their last 55 overall, 0-6 in their last 6 Thursday games, 0-5 in Lyles' last 5 home starts, 0-6 in his last 6 starts as a home underdog, 0-5 in his last 5 starts as a home underdog of +151 to +200 and 0-5 in his last 5 starts in the 3rd game of a series. The Astros are also 0-5 in their last 5 against the Giants.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -127
The Key: The Braves are 11-2 in Tommy Hanson's last 13 starts and 17-5 in his last 22 road starts. Plus, the Braves have never lost to the Padres in San Diego with Hanson on the hill. They are 3-0 all-time in his starts at Petco and have won those by an average of 5.3 runs. Hanson has never given up more than 2 runs to the Padres in 5 career starts against them. Bet the Braves.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -154
The Key: The Braves are 16-0 in Medlen's last 16 starts, 8-0 in his last 8 road starts, 11-0 in his last 11 starts as a favorite, 4-0 in his last 4 starts as a road favorite, 4-0 in his last 4 starts as a favorite of -151 to -200 and 7-0 in his last 7 starts on 5 days' rest. Atlanta lost yesterday, but they are 10-0 in Medlen's last 10 starts when he gets the ball following a team loss. The Braves have won by an average score of 6.0 to 2.6 in this situation. Take Atlanta.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Mariners -158
The Key: The Mariners are at a major advantage with Hernandez on the hill. They are 7-1 in his last 8 starts and 5-0 in his last 5 starts as a favorite. The Twins, who have lost 7 of 8 at home, are 0-4 in their last 4 games as an underdog of +110 to +150, 0-7 in their last 7 home games following a road trip of 7 or more days, 0-4 in their last 4 vs. a team with a losing record, 0-4 in Hendriks' last 4 starts vs. the American League West, 0-5 in Hendriks' last 5 starts as an underdog of +110 to +150 and 0-6 in his last 6 home starts. Lastly, the Mariners are 5-0 in the last 5 meetings with Minnesota. Bet Seattle.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Dodgers -159
The Key: The Marlins are 0-4 in their last 4, and they've lost the first 2 games of this series by 7 and 6 runs, respectively. The Marlins are also 0-4 in Buehrle's last 4 road starts with the total set at 7.0-8.5. The Fish have lost 8 of his 12 road starts on the season so he clearly isn't winning pitching duels away from home. The Dodgers are 4-0 in their last 4 vs. the NL East and 5-0 in their last 5 Sunday games. LA has won 5 of its last 6 vs. Miami, and it should continue its dominance here.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Pirates -103
The Key: The Brewers won yesterday, but I'm not hesitating in fading them today. They are still only 17-38 in their last 55 road games, 4-13 in their last 17 games as an underdog and 0-7 in their last 7 Saturday games. Plus, I'm expecting Marcum to struggle as he makes his first start in over 2 months. The Brewers are 5-12 in Marcum's last 17 starts and 1-5 in his last 6 road starts. He'll likely be on a pitch count, which means the Pirates will get to see plenty of a bullpen that carries a high 4.76 ERA. Lastly, the Pirates are a perfect 5-0 in Karstens' starts vs. the National League Central this season, and he has a lights out 2.53 ERA in these games.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Cubs -155
The Key: Colorado has been playing better baseball lately, but it can't be trusted on the road with the southpaw Drew Pomeranz on the mound. The Rockies are 0-4 in Pomeranz's last 4 starts vs. the National League Central and 0-4 in his last 4 road starts vs. a team with a losing record. Plus, the Cubs are 5-0 in their last 5 home games vs. a left-handed starter. In addition, the Cubs are 10-2 in their last 12 home games vs. a team with a losing record, 7-2 in their last 9 games as a home favorite, 7-3 in Samardzija's 10 home starts this season and 20-8 in their last 28 home games against the Rockies. Take the Cubbies.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Phillies -110
The Key: Plain and simple, Cole Hamels has absolutely owned the Reds. He have never lost to them, going 10-0 on the money line in 10 career starts with an ERA of only 1.26. Johnny Cueto hasn't enjoyed as much success against the Phillies. He's 2-4 on the money line in 6 career starts against them with an ERA of 5.08. Bet Philly.

7* NL *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -110
The Key: The Braves are 15-0 in Medlen's last 15 starts, 11-0 in his last 11 starts as a favorite, 7-0 in his last 7 road starts, 8-0 in his last 8 starts vs. the National League East, 7-0 in his last 7 starts vs. a team with a winning record and 6-0 in his last 6 starts on 5 days' rest. Bet the Braves.

6* AL *CA$H COW* on Angels -122
The Key: Weaver was hit hard his last time out, but the chances of it happening again tonight are slim to none. Consider that the Angels are 8-0 in Weaver's last 8 starts following an outing of less than 4 innings in his last appearance and 7-0 in his last 7 road starts. Plus, the Angels are 8-0 in their last 8 road games vs. a team with a losing record. Bet the Halos.

7* NL West Game of the Month on Dodgers -113
The Key: I'm fading the Giants with Lincecum on the mound. The Giants are 9-22 in Lincecum's last 31 starts and 4-11 in his last 15 road starts. They are 2-12 in his starts when the money line is +125 to -125 this season and 3-12 in his starts following a win this season. San Francisco is even 3-10 in Lincecum's last 13 starts vs. the National League West, 2-9 in his last 11 starts as an underdog, 1-6 in hi last 7 starts vs. a team with a winning record, 0-4 in his last 4 road starts vs. a team with a winning record and 1-4 in his last 5 starts vs. the Dodgers. Bet LA.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on A's -160
The Key: The Twins are 0-5 in their last 5 overall, 0-4 in their last 4 road games and 0-4 in their last 4 games vs. a right-handed starter. They are even 0-8 in Duensing's last 8 starts when the total is set at 7.0-8.5, 0-4 in his last 4 starts vs. a team with a winning record and 0-6 in his last 6 starts as an underdog of +110 to +150. The Athletics are 4-0 in their last 4 overall and 3-0 in McCarthy's last 3 home starts. McCarthy has an ERA of only 1.62 at home while Duensing has an ERA of 5.31 on the road. Bet Oakland.

6* MLB *CA$H COW* on Marlins -124
The Key: Josh Johnson has never lost to the Rockies. He's 2-0 (4-0 on the money line) with an ERA of 1.26 against them. It's also worth noting that Colorado's Drew Pomeranz is 0-7 this season when the money line is +125 to -125. The Rockies have lost by an average score of 6.1 to 2.9 in this situation. Bet Miami.

7* American League Game of the Month on White Sox -143
The Key: The White Sox went down yesterday, but they are 5-1 in their last 6 games following a loss. They are also a reliable 37-18 in their last 55 road games vs. a team with a losing record. Chicago has had plenty of success against left-handed starters lately, and I expect that success to continue with KC bringing Bruce Chen (5.56 ERA) to the mound. The White Sox are 10-4 in their last 14 games vs. a left-handed starter and 4-0 in their last 4 road games vs. a left-handed starter. The Royals are 1-5 in Chen's last 6 home starts vs. a team with a winning record. Jake Peavy, a former Cy Young with a 3.04 ERA, is the far better investment. Bet Chicago.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Angels -165
The Key: After getting shut out Thursday, there's no one the Angels would rather hand the ball to than ace Jered Weaver. In fact, they are 8-0 in Weaver's last 8 starts after scoring 2 runs or less in their previous game. They are also a perfect 7-0 in Weaver's last 7 starts vs. the tough American League East. It's also worth mentioning that the Rays are just 1-10 in Shields' last 11 starts as an underdog of +151 to +200. Take LAA.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -1.5 +111
The Key: I'm going to continue to ride the Braves with Kris Medlen on the mound. They are a perfect 14-0 in his last 14 starts and have won those by an average of 3.2 runs. They have won each of his last 7 starts by at least 2 runs. Bet the Braves on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -161
The Key: I'm sticking with the Braves today. They have won 25 of their last 35, and I love the chances with Maholm on the mound. He is 7-1 on the money line in his last 8 starts and has allowed 1 run or none in each of those 7 victories. Volquez has had a decent season, but he has been roughed up lately (13.50 ERA last 3 starts). Consider that plays against all underdogs with a money line of +125 to +175 (SAN DIEGO) - bad offensive team (<=4.1 runs/game) against a good NL starting pitcher (ERA <=3.70) - and provided their starting pitcher (Volquez) gives up 5.5 or less hits/start, are 74-19 the last 5 seasons. This system has produced an 18-6 record already this season. Take Atlanta.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -163
The Key: The Padres can't be trusted with Richard on the hill outside pitcher-friendly Petco. The Padres have lost 10 of his 13 road starts this season, and they are 0-6 in his last 6 road starts versus a team with a winning record. Plus, the Braves have never lost to Richard, who is 0-4 lifetime with an ERA of 7.36 in 4 career starts against them. Also, the Braves 7-0 Hudson

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Giants -115
The Key: The Giants have the advantage at home tonight with Vogelsong on the hill. They are 9-0 in Vogelsong's last 9 starts as a favorite, 7-0 in his last 7 starts as a home favorite, 6-0 in his last 6 starts as a favorite of -110 to -150 and 7-0 in his last 7 series-opening starts. The Nats have lost 9 of their last 12 in San Francisco and should fall again here as Vogelsong outduels Gonzalez.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on D-backs -113
The Key: Washington rallied to win yesterday thanks to two Arizona errors and a wild pitch in the 5th, but I expect its luck to run out here. The Diamondbacks are 14-6 in their last 20 games vs. a left-handed starter and 13-3 in their last 16 home games vs. a left-handed starter. The Nationals are 5-14 in Detwiler's last 19 starts as a road underdog and 1-11 in his last 12 road starts with the total set at 9.0-10.5. The total is high given Detwiler's 2.99 as it reflects Arizona's ability to hit lefties well (4.8 runs/game, 0.264 average against southpaw starters this season). The fact the D-backs are favored against one of the hottest teams in the league and the team with the best overall record tells us the odds makers are expecting them to win. I couldn't agree more with their assessment today. Take Arizona.

6* MLB *CA$H COW* on D-backs -130
The Key: By installing the Nationals, who have the best record in baseball, as this large of an underdog, the books are clearly looking to trap the public. We're not falling for it and here's why. The D-backs are 9-3 in Miley's last 12 home starts, 8-2 in his last 10 starts as a home favorite and 5-0 in his last 5 starts as a favorite of -110 to -150. Also, keep in mind the Nationals are 3-7 in their last 10 games as an underdog of +110 to +150.

6* MLB *CA$H COW* on Braves -103
The Key: I expect the Braves, who are 23-8 in their last 31 overall, to stay hot against a New York club they have defeated 6 straight times. The Braves are 15-1 in Medlen's last 16 starts and 6-0 in his last 6 road starts. The Mets are 1-10 in their last 11 home games, 1-4 in Santana's last 5 starts and 4-9 in his last 13 starts vs. the Braves.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Pirates -1.5 +121
The Key: Pittsburgh is 10-0 in Burnett's home starts this season (2.6-run average winning margin in these games), 8-0 in his starts vs. poor power teams averaging 0.9 or less HR's/game this season (3.6-run avg winning margin in these games), 10-0 in his starts versus NL teams scoring 4.3 or less runs/game this season. (3.1-run avg margin or victory in these games) and 9-0 in his starts as a favorite of -110 or higher this season. (3.0-run avg margin of victory in these games). Take the Bucs on the run line as they win by 2-plus behind another outstanding outing from Burnett.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on White Sox -115
The Key: Motivated by back-to-back defeats and having had a day off to regroup, expect the White Sox to bring their "A" game tonight. They are 4-0 in their last 4 games following an off day and 6-0 in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. I also like the fact that the White Sox are 4-1 in Floyd's last 5 starts as a favorite. Oakland's McCarthy hasn't made a start since June 19, and I'm expecting to see some rust. Take the South Siders.

7* National League Game of the Year on Reds -155
The Key: The Reds will be extremely motivated and focused after losing all 3 in Milwaukee. They are 7-0 in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning percentage below .400 and should have no promblem furthering this streak against the Cubs, who are 0-8 in their last 8 games. The Cubs are also 0-5 in their last 5 vs. a team with a winning record and 0-5 in their last 5 games vs. a right-handed starter. They have struggled against the righty they'll see tonight (Leake). Lastly, Chicago's scheduled starter (Volstad) is 0-12 on the money line in his last 12 starts. We'll take Cincinnati.

6* MLB *CA$H COW* on Angels -130
The Key: The Angels have won 5 of their last 7 in Oakland, and I like their chances here with Greinke on the mound. He's 9-4 with a 3.61 ERA on the season, and he'll be very focused following a rough outing his last time out. Greinke has also had some success against the A's with a 5-1 record and 3.09 ERA in 9 career starts. Greinke is 32-10 on the money line as a favorite of -110 or higher over the last 2 seasons. Take the Angels.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Reds -140
The Key: The Reds are 3-0 in Latos' last 3 starts, during which he has posted an ERA of 1.77. They are also 7-0 in his last 7 starts against NL Central opponents. The Brewers are 0-3 in Wolf's last 3 starts, during which he has posted a 5.40 ERA. They are also 0-6 in his last 6 Wednesday starts and 0-8 in his last 8 starts as an underdog of +110 to +150. It should also be mentioned that Cincy is 6-0 in its last 6 games vs. a southpaw starter.

6* MLB Bailout on Angels -133
The Key: I'm a big believer in the Angels. This team is loaded with talent, and it's showing value at this price with C.J. Wilson on the rubber. The Angels are 6-0 in Wilson's last 6 starts as a road favorite of -110 to -150, and he is 3-0 on the money line in his last 3 starts in Oakland. He has shut the A's down in those 3 starts, allowing them only 3 runs in 20 innings. The Angels have won 5 of their last 6 in Oakland. Bet LAA.

6* MLB *CA$H COW* on Reds -101
The Key: The Reds are a bargain at this price considering they have won 22 of their last 27 overall and 9 of their last 10 away from home. They are 22-7 in Johnny Cueto's last 29 starts and 6-1 in his last 7 starts versus the Brew Crew. They have won 6 of their last 8 against Milwaukee, and I expect them to avenge yesterday's loss.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER on Pirates -116
The Key: The Pirates are a steal at this price, especially with Karstens on the hill. They are 3-0 in his last 3 starts (allowed 1 run or none in 2 of those), 3-0 in his home starts (0.43 ERA in those) and 4-0 in his last 4 starts as a favorite (1 or no runs allowed in 3 of those). The Pirates have won 6 of their last 7 at home versus Arizona, and I like them here.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Angels -145
The Key: Simply put, I'm riding the hot hand of Jered Weaver here. The Halos' ace is 11-0 on the money line in his last 11 starts with LA winning those by an average of 4.4 runs per game. Weaver hasn't given up more than 2 earned runs in any of his last 7 starts against the A's, and I expect nothing short of another dominant performance tonight.

6* ESPN Monday Night Baseball *CA$H COW* on Tigers -163
The Key: Verlander is a perfect 12-0 on the money line at home since the start of the 2010 season when pitching against good teams that carry a win percentage of 54-62%. The Tigers have won these games by an average score of 5.3 to 2.0. The Tigers are rolling at home (8 straight home wins), and I expect them to keep rolling behind their ace.

6* ESPN Sunday Night Baseball *CASH COW* on Cardinals -157
The Key: The Brewers are 0-4 in Estrada's last 4 road starts while the Cardinals are 4-0 in Lohse's last 4 home starts. The Brewers are also 0-6 in Estrada's last 6 starts as an underdog and 0-5 in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning record. The Cardinals are 4-0 in their last 4 games as a favorite of -151 to -200. The Cards are the better team with the better pitcher on the mound and they're at home. Take St. Louis.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Braves -1.5 -104
The Key: The Astros are 0-10 in Bud Norris' last 10 starts. They have lost these by an average of 2.8 runs. The Braves, on the other hand, are 12-0 in Kris Medlen's last 12 starts. They have won these by 3.1 runs on average. With this in mind, and the fact that Atlanta has won 9 of its last 11 while Houston has lost 29 of its last 33, I love our chances of covering the run line with the Braves.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Dodgers -1.5 -120
The Key: Chris Volstad's clubs are 0-11 in his last 11 starts and have lost these games by an average of 3.6 runs. I don't see anyway he outduels Kershaw here. The LA ace has shut down Chicago each of the last two times he's faced the Cubs. Take LA on the run line.

6* Red Sox -1.5 +104
The Key: The Red Sox get the call on the run line because of how solid Buchholz has been. The Sox have won 7 of his last 8 starts, and he has held opponents to 2 runs or fewer in 6 of those. Those 7 wins have come by an average of 3.1 runs.

6* Nationals -1.5 +132
The Key: I like the Nats on the run line here because of the way Zimmerman is dealing. He has given up 3 earned runs or less in 11 straight starts and has allowed 1 earned run or none in his last 7 starts. That's consistency we can count on. Washington has won his last 4 starts, taking three of those by at least 3 runs. Buehrle has been a solid pitcher for a lot of years, but he clearly already pitched his best baseball.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Giants -148
The Key: I love the Giants with Vogelsong on the hill. San Francisco is 6-0 in Vogelsong's last 6 series-opening starts, 8-0 in his last 8 starts as a favorite, 5-0 in his last 5 starts vs. a team with a losing record and 5-0 in his 5 career starts vs. the Rockies. The Giants are also 5-0 in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning percentage below .400. The struggling Rockies are 0-4 in their last 4 series openers. Bet San Francisco on the money line.

6* MLB Run Line Play of the Day on Braves -1.5 -125
The Key: The Braves are 5-0 in their last 5 home games versus Houston, winning those contests by an average of 4.0 runs. Plus, Hudson is 5-0 on the money line in his last 5 starts with the Braves winning those by an average of 2.6 runs. Hudson is also 4-0 in his last 4 starts against Houston with the Braves winning those by an average of 5.5 runs. Houston scheduled starter Galarraga, meanwhile, is 0-6 on the money line in his last 6 starts with his teams losing them by an average of 2.2 runs. Grab Atlanta on the run line.

7* MLB Run Line Game of the Year on Braves -1.5 +120
The Key: Atlanta is 11-2 against teams with a losing record in the second half of the season this season, defeating them by an average score of 5.0 to 2.0. It is 7-1 in its last 8 overall with 5 of those wins coming by 2 runs or more. It is also 8-2 in its last 10 games versus Miami with those 8 wins coming by an average of 5.5 runs. The Marlins are 1-7 in their last 8 road games with 6 of those losses coming by at least 6 runs. Bet the Braves on the run line.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on A's -121
The Key: I'll grab the A's in this bounce back spot as they are 5-0 in their last 5 games following a loss, 6-0 in their last 6 after scoring 2 runs or less in their previous game, 6-0 in their last 6 after allowing 5 runs or more in their previous game and 7-0 in their last 7 Wednesday games. They also have the advantage on the mound with Parker (3.37 ERA). They are 3-0 his last 3 starts, 4-0 in his last 4 starts in the third game of a series and 5-0 in his last 5 starts vs. the American League East. Tampa's Cobb (4.93 ERA), meanwhile, is 0-3 in his last 3 starts. Also, the Rays are 0-4 in his last 4 starts vs. the American League West. Bet Oakland.

6* MLB Bailout on Dodgers -113
The Key: I like the Dodgers in this battle of quality lefty starters because of how sharp Capuano has been at home and because of how well LA has hit southpaws lately. The Dodgers have won 7 of Cap's 10 home starts this season, during which he has posted an ERA of 1.64. The Dodgers are also 6-0 in their last 6 games vs. a left-handed starter, winning those games by an average of 3.7 runs. Bet LA.

6* MLB *CA$H COW* on White Sox -135
The Key: This is a good situation for Liriano to make his first start for his new team in a park he's very familiar with. It's been a tough season for the southpaw (5.34 ERA), but he's been sharper than Blackburn (7.99 ERA). The White Sox are 10-4 in their last 14 games as a favorite while the Twins are 19-40 in their last 59 games as a home underdog. The White Sox are also 5-1 in the last 6 meetings and 8-3 in the last 11 meetings in Minnesota. Bet Chicago.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Tigers -122
The Key: As much as this is a play on Verlander, it's a play against Beckett. The Red Sox are 0-4 in Beckett's last 4 home starts, losing those by an average of 3.0 runs. He has given up a total of 11 runs in his last 2 home starts. Also, the Red Sox are 0-3 in his last 3 starts vs. Detroit, losing those by an average of 5.7 runs. Bet Detroit.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Rangers -140
The Key: The Rangers get the nod tonight as the numbers are heavily in their favor. The Angels are 0-5 in Santana

6* Sunday Night Baseball *CA$H COW* on Yankees -1.5 +116
The Key: I like the Yankees on the run line tonight as I fully expect a gem from Kuroda. The Red Sox are 0-5 in their last 5 games vs. a right-handed starter and have lost those by an average of 5.8 runs. The Yankees are 6-0 in Kuroda's last 6 starts and have won those by an average of 3.7 runs. Boston won yesterday but has dropped 8 of its last 10 following a victory. Take the Yanks on the run line.

7* MLB Underdog Game of the Week on Giants +107
The Key: The Giants are showing tremendous value at home in the underdog role with Vogelsong on the bump. The Giants are 8-0 in Vogelsong's last 8 home starts, 8-0 in his last 8 starts vs. the National League West, 8-0 in his last 8 starts after giving up 1 or fewer earned runs in his last and 3-0 in his last 3 starts versus the Dodgers. The Dodgers are 0-4 in Kershaw's last 4 road starts and 0-2 in starts versus the Giants this season. Lastly, the Giants are 5-0 in their last 5 games vs. a left-handed starter. Bet the Giants.

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Nationals -122
The Key: The Nationals, who are 4-0 in their last 4 games as a favorite, have the edge on the rubber with Zimmerman (2.31 ERA). The Nationals are 6-0 in Zimmermann

7* MLB *HEAVY HITTER* on Rangers -130
The Key: The White Sox will have their hands full with Darvish, who they haven't seen. The right-hander averages 10.24 strikeouts per nine innings (third in the majors). The Rangers are 4-0 in his last 4 home starts vs. a team with a winning record. (7-1 in 8 home starts this season). Also, plays on home favorites with a money line of -125 to -175 (TEXAS) - a team with a starting pitcher who gives up 5.5 or less hits/start and scores 4.7 to 5.2 runs/game against an AL starting pitcher with an ERA of 4.20 or lower are 48-8 the last 5 seasons. This system is a perfect 4-0 this season. Lastly, the White Sox are 0-5 in their last 5 road games, 0-4 in their last 4 games as an underdog, 0-6 in their last 6 games as a road underdog of +110 to +150 and 0-5 in their last 5 vs. a team with a winning record. Take Texas.
