The Cardinals did have some injuries (Furcal) this year and lost Albert Pujols a few years back but have gotten production from Carpenter, Matt Holliday, David Freese, David Adams and Allen Craig.
Boston has the bearded crew led by Big Papi (David Ortiz), Dustin Pedroia and Mike Napoli). Starter Jon Lester has good stuff and the Red Sox faired well against the National League while the Cards were just 10-10 vs. the AL.

Oakland goes with Sonny Gray but he is still a young pitcher and the Tigers saw him earlier in the week. The A's have been a surprise team all year but did lead 2-1 in games and jumped ahead in Game 4 before losing.
I expect to see Torii Hunter, Austin Freeman, Prince Fielder and Miguel Cabrera help the road team win.

Sanchez has 202 k's and just 54 walks in 2013. I think we see Miguel Cabrera, Prince Fielder and Austin Freeman do damage in this early 1pm start. The series is 1-1 and the home team needs to shine.

Kershaw is the likely Cy Young winner in the national league and starts game 1 at Atlanta. The Braves are without Dan Uggla and Evan Gattis will play outfield and he is big and slow w/o much experience. Kershaw should be able to keep the Braves to just 1 or 2 runs as Upton hit less than ,200 and struggled.

LAA is without Aybar and Albert Pujols even though they have Hamilton, Trout and Trumbo. NYY is 33-26 at home and still in the hunt for the wildcard while LAA is 23-33 on the road. Phil Hughes has pitched poorly but does have 20 strikeouts in his last 5 games. CJ Wilson has pitched well but did allow 5 at Texas and 6 at Detroit.

LA does have to play in Toronto on Wednesday and then travel back to the west coast for the Thursday night game. Cincy just played a doubleheader (split the two games) in San Francisco on Tuesday and is already on the west coast. Zack Greinke has pitched well lately as his ERA is 0.41 in his last 3 starts. His last 4 home starts hve seen him allow 0, 4, 2 and 0 runs. The team is 12-3 in his starts. Another key statistic is that Greinke is hitting .404.
The Reds start Matt Latos. The team is 13-7 in his starts but his ERA is 7.20 (with a 1.93 WHIP) in his last 3. He hits .136, which is decent for a pitcher. The Reds are 32-18 at home and 25-26 on the road. The Reds are led by Joey Votto, who is a hitting machine and never seems to get out. Jay Bruce and Shin Choo are solid but the Dodgers will be at home and led by Yasiel Puig and Hanley Ramirez.
Take the Dodgers on Thursday.

Chien-Ming Wang starts for the Blue Jays. He allowed 7 runs in his last start vs Boston but his previous starts were pitching 6 innings and allowing 0 runs vs. the Orioles,and pitching 7 innings allowing no runs against Texas.
It does concern me Adam Lind and Encarnacion are questionable but Mark Derosa had 3 rbi's on Monday and guys like Jose Reyes (.349) and Rajai Davis (.321) are hitting well.

The Yankees have several injuries to veterans like Derek Jeter, ARod and Mark Texeira but still have ome talent and new players that are producing. And if they lead they have Mariano Rivera to come and save the day.

Miami starts Jose Fernandez and the reason why this line is low. They are 11-22 at home and just played weak teams like the NY Mets and Milwaukee. They lost to the Brewers by 6-1 and 10-1. Fernandez has an ERA of 3.17 but the team is 6-6 in his starts.
Miami does have played like Juan Pierre and Ozuna who can do some damage.

Detroit at Texas 8pm 10* Texas -114
Texas is 13-5 at home while Detroit is 10-11 on the road. Holland pitches for the Rangers and the team is 6-2 in his starts. He has an ERA of 2.18 in his last 3 starts and has allowed 0, 2 and 2 runs in his last 3 home starts. Doug Fister will pitch for Detroit and his ERA is 4.50 in his last 3 starts. Texas is led by Kinsler, Andrus, Berkman, Beltre, Soto and Cruz. Look for the Texas Rangers to win again on Sunday night as small home favorites.

Washington at San Diego Rot: 959/960 10:10pm Thursday 10* San Diego +135
The San Diego Padres are 10-8 at home. They face Washington's star pitcher Stephen Strasburg, who played at San Diego State in college. Strasburg has been a victim of poor offense from the Nationals as they have scored just 2, 5, 2, 2, 1, 1 and 3 runs in his last seven starts. The team has just one win and six losses in those seven starts.
Edinson Volquez starts for the Padres and the team has won his last two home starts by 5-1 over Arizona and defeated Milwaukee 2-1. He has allowed just 2, 1, 4, 0 and 2 earned runs in his last five starts.
San Diego did beat Strasburg last May by a 6-1 score. Look for a close game on Thursday night with the Padres finding a way to win. There is value in taking the San Diego Padres at home at +135.
Thanks and good luck.
10* San Diego +135 |

Philadelphia Phillies +114 v. Arizona Diamondbacks | Top | 4-2 |
Win | 114 | 7 h 44 m | Show |
Take Phillies +114
Getting the Phils at plus money looks good today. They have split after the 3-1 win on Saturday. Kendrick has a nice 2.45 ERA with a 5-2 record while Arizona's McCarthy has an ERA of 6.75. Kendrick has allowed just 2, 2, 0, 2, 0 and 2 runs in his last six starts.
McCarthy allows opponents to hit .366 and has allowed 3, 4, 6, 4 and 3 runs in his last five starts.
Jimmy Rollins, Chase Utley, Michael Young, Ryan Howard and Delvon Young are all solid hitters and should do damage for the road team today.

St. Louis Cardinals -116 v. Milwaukee Brewers | Top | 7-6 |
Win | 100 | 15 h 46 m | Show |
Wainwright is pitching well and beat Milwaukee 8-0 earlier in the year with 12 K's and 0 walks. Carpenter, David Freese, Holiday and Molina are all playing well, hitting and playing defense.
Milwaukee is around .500 and starts Gallardo. He should give up a few runs as he has been involved in mostly overs.
Ryan Braun will need to be kept under wraps.
I think the Cards win 4-2.

Win | 127 | 20 h 24 m | Show |
Monday
Baseball 5* Atlanta +127 (7pm) The Braves return home after a long road trip that ended in Detroit. Steven Strasburg pitches for Washington and the team is just 1-4 in his starts. He has allowed 3 and 2 earned runs in his last two starts. The Nationals are just 4-5 on the road while Atlanta is 6-2 at home and beat Strasburg in Washington. We have played against Strasburg the last three times he started and won all 3. Heyward and McCann are out for the Braves but they still have the Uptons, Johnson, Uggla, Freeman and Gattis. Hope to see a 3-2 type of game.

Take the home team as the Angels have been hot lately and won yesterday 10-1 after jumping ahead 9-0 in the first inning. Trout, Pujols, Josh Hamilton and Trumbo are playing well. The won the Friday night game too and allowed just one run.
Detroit is a good club and has Doug Fister starting today. They do have injured SS Peralto who will miss today.

Oakland is at home and needs to win. Detroit has played well so far and got a nice Game One win with Verlander and hitting with Cabrera. I think we see the A's play well at home and win 4-3.

The Orioles were tied 2-2 last night and had a man on second with 0 outs but could not score. They are down 1-0 and at home in a must win game vs. Andy Pettitte. I think Adam Jones and Matt Wieters come through tonight and the O's win by a run.

Texas at Oakland 3:30 3*Oakland -106
Texas is at Oakland. The home team is playing well as they are 15-6 in their last 21 games in their facility. They have won the first two games and the Texas Rangers are struggling to score and play well. The Rangers have had some injuries as Josh Hamilton is not 100%. Texas is one of the best teams and power ratings had them near the top most of 2012 but I think we see Oakland win today.

Loss | -100 | 6 h 0 m | Show |
Boston at NY Yankees 7pm pick: Boston +210
Take the Boston Red Sox for one unit tonight as Clay Buckholz starts for the visiting Red Sox and he has pitched well on the road. He has allowed just 0 and 1 runs in his last two starts away from home against Tampa Bay and Toronto. He has allowed just 10 runs in his last 5 road starts.
The Yankees are at home and have CC Sabathia on the mound and are big favorites as they are in a playoff battle with the Orioles. The pressure will be on the home team so it is worth a shot to take the Red Sox who would love to spoil the party.

Take Milwaukee to win as a small road favorite. The Pirates won 3-0 last night but they had a rain delay that lasted longer than the game. They had to travel back to Pittsbugh to get ready for this game at 7pm. Gallardo has solid stuff for the Brewers.

Tim Lincecum vs. Jeff Francis at Coors Field. Lincecum has pitched better but the team is 11-17 in his starts while Francis's starts have the Rockies at 12-7. The teams are 1-1 and both have gone over but I like for the Rockies to find a way to win on Wednesday 6-5.

Take the Orioles as they have won the first two games and have won 8 of 10 games. They stomped the Blue Jays by over 10 runs last night. Morrow and Gonzalez face each other and both have pitched well recently but I like the small underodg on Wednesday night.

Win | 100 | 20 h 57 m | Show |
The Orioles are playing well and getting key hits and pitching. Thius game is a toss up on the mound for starters. Adam Jones and Nick Markakis have played well lately and so has catcher Matt Wieters. Toronto has cooled off lately and was shut out 4-0 on Monday.
Take the O's to win 4-3. |

Oakland: T Blackley -132 v. Cleveland: C Kluber | Top | 8-4 |
Win | 100 | 19 h 29 m | Show |
Clevelnad is playing poorly as they are struggling to hit and score, as well as starting pitching and relievers are wlaking batters and allowing key hits. Even the fielders are struggling to make routine plays.
Oakland has been playing well and won easily on Tuesday night. I think we see the A's win again.

Take the A's as road favorites. Good luck! |
