Baseball Betting Look Ahead by the Numbers
With Baltimore being the last team to complete 81 games or half the season, we have information to take into account how all 30 major league teams have played and try to surmise how they might play in the future based on these results. Noted baseball guru Bill James and Baseball Prospectus are considered two of the most respected names that helped usher baseball into this modern era of information. Among the tools are runs scored and runs allowed, providing a method to determine if any baseball team is overachieving or possibly not playing up to the level of skill they have shown for different reasons.The numerology is quite simple; multiply the each number by itself and add the two together. Divided the runs scored figure by the total, to create a percentage. Take this percentage, multiply by either 81 or 162 to determine the number of wins and losses a team should have.
Example- Boston Red Sox record 49-32 after 81 games. They have scored 406 runs and allowed 336.
406 x 406 = 164836
336 x 336 = 112898
164836 + 112898 = 277732
164836 divided by 277732 = .593 percent
81 games x .593 = 48-33
162 games x .593 = 96 -66
This methodology shows Boston is just about where they should be and is on pace for another outstanding season. Here is a look at each team’s record and runs scored/run allowed at mid-point of the season.

That is a lot of numbers, thus let’s dissect what some of these means. The Toronto Blue Jays have not met expectations to this juncture and could be a Play On team the second half of the season. What two elements have to change is more clutch hitting to score runs. Toronto hitters are in the lower third of nearly all offensive statistics, if they could just move into the mid-level group, they improve immediately. Because of lack of run production, the bullpen, despite a solid ERA and closing numbers have lost 16 games for the Blue Jays. If the pitching maintains and the bats wake up a little, Toronto is on schedule to win 87 games for the season, looking at the possibility of 49-32 second half.
The Chicago White Sox are in first place in the AL Central, have suffered a few bumps, yet for the most part, played good baseball. For Pale Hose backers, the news gets even better since they should have even a better record. With a differential of +85 at the middle of the season, this equates to 50-31 record, a full four games better than they have shown. At the midpoint of the season, any number greater than three or five at the end of the season, is noteworthy positive or negative. With the White Sox starting pitching improving, the bullpen the best in the American League and the hitters becoming more consistent, Chicago should run away in the second half. Watch this closely, since their money line odds will only increase if the winning continues, now is the time to make plays on the South Siders.
The Cleveland Indians are among the bigger disappointments in baseball with 37-44 record, after being within one game of playing in the World Series. A number of players injured or in season long slumps, below average starts from main hurlers and a shaky bullpen, has added up to failure. Based on this stat, the Tribe should rebound to at least be respectable the rest of the way. They actually had a +15 differential, suggesting they should be better. What makes this a tough call is the mood of the front office. If they trade C.C. Sabathia or others, this is a moot point and should be ignored.
The Los Angeles Angels have had one of the best records in the AL all season, thanks to great starting pitching, quality fielding and closer Frankie Rodriguez. Take away any of those pieces and this is an ordinary club. The Angels are only +11 for differential, as next to last offense doesn’t score runs and middle relief has been battered with alarming numbers. If nothing changes, this will become Play Against squad and be overtaken by Oakland, who conceivably could have been three games better in the first half. The A’s scored more runs than the Angels and gave up fewer also. They can match L.A. starters, have better middle staff and are receiving better performances from inferior lineup. Watch Oakland.
The Phillies hitters have become quieter than a Philadelphia fan with his mouth taped shut and strapped to a chair. Nobody really believes this will last for the rest of the season and eventually they will come around. Their starting pitching is good enough in the National League, especially with the best bullpen in the bigs. Just watch for when the hits start being nine or more a game and start backing the Phils again.
Atlanta’s a challenging read at +45 differential. Injuries keep mounting to starting pitching, Chipper Jones has one injury after another, and they are starting to lose more home games. Though it appears the Braves are Play On team, tread lightly.
The Milwaukee Brewers finished 44-37 in the first half, however allowing two more runs than they scored suggests 40-41 was more accurate assessment. The Brewers still have road issues, are .500 against RH starters and average in putting crooked numbers on the board. The bullpen is serviceable, yet don’t think every one-run lead they take into the eighth inning, doesn’t have Milwaukee fans sitting up straighter and ordering another beer, just in case.
In truth, several teams will have far different records than imagined. Even so, the vast majority will have up and down spells and settle very close to what their percentage should be based on runs scored and runs allowed. This certainly is worth watching and using as reference point the rest of the season for wagering or other purposes. The following numbers are the projected end of the season records based on first 81-games runs scored and allowed.

A rotten day for our free information yesterday, as Toronto blew a 6-2 lead in the late innings, to at least give us a shot at one win. Like a NFL cornerback, you forget and move on and 3DW has a Totals System play that has yet to lose in 2008. Today’s best angle is 100 percent winner and the Free play is from a quirky member of the LCC. Good Luck.

NL Worst (West) Strictly Play Against Teams
It was the late king of the one-liners, Henny Youngman who had the joke, “Take my wife – Please”. This would be an apt description of the National League West, where only Arizona is over .500 on the season. Just a half a season removed from having two teams competing for the National League crown last October, this division is about as popular as an SUV gulping 12 miles a gallon. Let’s take a look back to figure this mess out.In 2004, the Dodgers won the division with 93 wins, San Francisco won 91 and San Diego was better than competitive with 87 victories. 2005 saw a complete reversal of fortunes, as three teams in the division lost 87 or more games and the Padres were good fodder for jokes as division champs at 82-80. 2006 saw a sharp improvement in a very competitive NL West, with Los Angeles and San Diego both in the postseason and Arizona and Colorado at least respectable at 76-86. Last year, everything was on the upswing for this division, with four teams over .500 and three teams were battling for two spots in the NL playoffs. Talk about your Wild, Wild West!
What changed so dramatically, that this division is collectively -65.9 units, which includes games against each other, where somebody has to win?
We’ll start with first place Arizona. On May 18, the Diamondbacks were 28-16 and looked every bit as good, if not better than the team that won 90 games a season ago. Most figured Arizona would cruise along this season; however the cracks were apparent last year, they just never manifested themselves. The D-Backs allowed 20 more runs than they scored, more befitting a team winning 79 games, not 90. Another factor of concern coming into the season was the Snakes 32-20 record in one run games in 2007. This was easily the most in baseball and the highest winning percentage also. These tend to be random events from year to year and Arizona would need marked improvement in other areas to compensate. Arizona hitters like to swing aggressively, a little too aggressively, since they are third in the majors in strikeouts. When they score runs, this is easy to overlook, however when your team is 13-24 in last 37 games, not so much. How bad has the offense been, they have scored three or fewer runs 72.9 percent of the time (27) in the last 37 trips to the ball yard.
The Dodgers roster has been overhauled the last few years and has introduced a number of young players like Russell Martin, James Loney and Matt Kemp into the lineup. While the talent is evident, so is the youth, with plenty of mistakes going around. Other veteran players like Jeff Kent have not produced and Nomar Garciaparra and Andruw Jones have been on the DL. Not having an ace like Brad Penny (5-9, 5.88) has had trickle down affect on starting staff and an offense that is 27th in runs scored only exacerbates problems. Down 11 units, Dodgers backers need to see offense come together to help a decent pitching staff to make a run.
With the departure of Barry Bonds, San Francisco can finally go a new direction and do what they should have done three years ago, rebuild from the ground up. Despite 36-47 record, in many ways the Giants have been better than anticipated in certain areas. For bettors, they have the best money line unit record (still negative) at -5.3 units in the division. They are one of only seven teams to be at or above .500 (22-22, +6.3 units) and have a winning record of 15-13 in the division. Certain all-star, Tim Lincecum (8-1, 2.39) gives San Fran a chance every time he pitches and 25-year Jonathan Sanchez has surprised, with Giants winning 13 of his 17 starts. The 26th ranked offense is not going to score many runs, with lack of power and speed, but if starting pitchers Matt Cain and Barry Zito could pitch anywhere near ability, these goofy Giants could be contenders in the wacked-out West.
The laws of gravity finally caught up with San Diego. With only 1B Adrian Gonzalez a reliable offensive threat, the Padres are no threat to score many runs. The starting pitchers have way too much pressure on them to be almost perfect because of lack of run production and the wear shows on their faces and demeanor on the mound with runners on base. Even when the starting pitchers give them a chance, former closer extraordinaire Trevor Hoffman, is 40 years old and he is why San Diego has the worst save percentage in the big leagues at 48.4 percent. Too many poor personnel decisions and lack of production is why the Pads are the best Play Against team in baseball.
The Colorado Rockies as it turns out were a mirage. Much like seeking a Taco Bell at 3 AM with a belly full of Coors, everything was not as it appeared. Whether they put the baseballs in a humidor or not, Colorado has to score runs to win and averaging 4.2 per game is not enough, particularly when your team has the third-worst ERA in baseball at 4.83. The Rockies have had their share of injuries with Troy Tulowitzki and others missing time. Tulowitzki can speak with candor about what he has seen. "We haven't played well at all," admitted the shortstop. "We deserve to be in last place." Colorado is putrefactive 12-30 (-15.6) on the road, 22-42 (-21.6) taking on RH starters and 11-23 (-12.5) in this decaying division. Because Colorado has not hit with authority and the pitching reeks like a bottle of Coors Light left open behind a chair from a party after a week, the Rocks are rancid 11-24 in games decided by four or more runs.
With a half a season left, either playing against or staying away from the NL Worst is prudent attack.

The American League blows away National League
Mercifully, the blood-letting has stopped, the National League can retreat back to its quaint little grouping and compete amongst itself with the knowledge that one team will emerge and be a World Series representative. Thank goodness baseball has history or like in the other major sports, fans would be clamoring to redo the playoff system based on what has again taken place.With the New York Yankees and Pittsburgh having to make up one contest, the results won’t change much with the American League leading149-102, 59.3 percent. In the past, I’ve read and talked to handicappers who hate interleague play, since it throws off the normal flow or rhythm of teams. They are correct in one manner, while lacking intelligence at the same time. Play the American League and everything is just fine. To date, betting AL teams exclusively in 2008, netted +34.8 units of profit.
How dominant was the AL’s performance? Only Toronto (8-10), Cleveland (6-12) and Seattle (9-9) did not finish over .500 against National League counterparts. Compare that with just three clubs from the senior circuit had winning records. The N.Y. Mets and Cincinnati were 9-6 and Atlanta was 8-7, that’s it.
A trio of AL Central teams was really able to bolster their positions, whipping the NL. Minnesota was baseball best 14-4 (+12.3 units) in interleague play and has moved to within three games of first place Chicago White Sox, thanks to kicking National League tail. Detroit has been among the biggest disappointments in baseball, yet used a 13-5 record to crawl into third place in division and is now over .500 for the first time this season. Kansas City is 24-40 (-10.9 units) against teams in the American League; however with 13-5 (+9.3 units) mark versus NL, hopes for a .500 season are still within reach.
Why does the American League continue to dominate? The easy answer is better teams. This is shown in runs scored/runs allowed category. Only four teams in the AL have a negative number among the 14 clubs, with the NL Central having four all by themselves among the grand total of 10. Only four teams in the older league are five games or better over .500 in the standings, compared to seven on the junior circuit.
Though many of these numbers are not decisive, it speaks to the difference in the two leagues. From hitting perspective, the American League averages more runs, hits, doubles, total bases and runs batted in. They have a higher on-base percentage, batting average and slugging percentage than the NL. The only category that matters in which the National’s lead is home runs.
Pitching numbers are much the same. The AL has lower ERA, allows fewer hits per innings pitched, walks fewer batters and has lower batting averages against hitters. The only element the National League pitchers do better is having more strikeouts. The American League even has a slight edge in fielding. This year’s dominance was only surpassed by the AL’s wipeout of 2006.
I’d mentioned last week about playing against teams in last game of road trip (five or more played) and though it took a hit with rare nine games on Sunday (3-6), this angle still bares watching in the second half of the season at 94-59, 61.4 percent, good for +27. 8 units.
NBA Draft Thoughts
I wanted to make a few comments about the NBA Draft. No wonder following the NBA is so damn difficult, it makes no sense. Oh sure the Derrick Rose and Michael Beasley picks were predictable, despite rumors of Beasley having character issues that made him represented as Disney-like - Goofy.It was how the rest of draft played out, that left me wondering. Numerous scouts wondered how Kevin Love was going to be able to get off jump shots, rebound with authority and play defense, literally days before the draft. Yet he’s picked fifth overall and is shipped almost immediately to the Land of 10,000 lakes. If he’s not Elton Brand, this was wasted pick.
The New York Knicks have the most dysfunctional roster in the league and take Danilo Gallinari? Now Gallinari is supposed to be the best Euro, but wait till he meets his new teammates. Hopefully he doesn’t learn how to talk “Knick” and become a malcontent himself.
The Milwaukee Bucks take Joe Alexander, who had a wonderful junior season at West Virginia and impressed several clubs with his athletic ability. However just a year ago, Milwaukee drafted Yi Jianlian to play small forward, despite his instance of wanting to play in bigger media market. After one season, Milwaukee trades what presumably was star of the future for Richard Jefferson, who happens to play the three spot, same as Alexander. Is this making sense, or do I need another Milwaukee Best?
There are other examples of what looks to be tomfoolery; however I’ve come to this conclusion. Taking players in the NBA draft is like buying futures, with a three-year window because of rookie salary cap. If it doesn’t look like a player is going to work out, move him and go on to the next one. If he looks like a keeper, tender him new contract and keep trying to build team. Of course the accountability factor of the GM is swept under the rug, or he is shown the door. No wonder the NBA is so hard to stomach.

Baseball’s Bettors Good, Bad and Ugly
As the baseball season approaches the halfway point, here is a look at who are the good and bad teams to wager on and some so ugly, they make onions cry. Take a gander at what numbers are important and what has been happening to these major league clubs.
GOOD
Chicago Cubs 49-29 +14.6 units
The Chicago Cubs continue to be the best and safest bet in major league baseball, thanks to a powerful every day lineup manager Lou Pinella has to work with and versatility to rest players. The Cubs have bludgeoned visiting teams, scoring a baseball best, 6.5 runs per game at what are truly the Friendly Confines for the North Siders. Run line players should note jaw-dropping 2.6 runs per game edge. The Cubs are 33-9 at home for sick +19.5 units of profit. Keep an eye on their fortunes, with 16 of next 22 games on the road.
Tampa Bay 46-31 +13.4 units
Some people believe the world is more amiss than anytime in history, with home foreclosures, rising inflation and the job market upside down. Yet as crazy as all these things are, for fans and bettors of baseball, Tampa Bay having one less loss than the defending World Series champion Boston Red Sox in late June, well in today’s world, this might make sense. Like most of the top teams in baseball in 2008, the Rays have superior home field edge at 30-13, +14 units. It’s all about the pitching for Tampa Bay, being third in ERA and batting average allowed. What might be the most difficult aspect to comprehend; the Rays are 32-17 when favored. Raydiculous!
St. Louis 45-34 +11.5 units
The overused term “thinking out of the box” is on its way to infamy; however it may be the only way to describe what St. Louis has done in 2008 and continues to do. Ask anyone outside of St. Louis to name starting lineup for the Cards and most are stuck after Albert Pujols. But players like Ryan Ludwick and Skip Shumaker are making a name for themselves and former Angels retreads Troy Glaus and Adam Kennedy are drinking from manager Tony LaRussa fountain of youth. The Cardinals are above average offensively in scoring 4.7 RPG, yet the real secret is inside the numbers. The Redbirds are 2nd in walks, 3rd in on-base percentage and 25th in strikeouts. Also, pitching coach Dave Duncan is working miracles with this pitching staff.
BAD
Philadelphia 43-36 -0.7
The Philadelphia franchise is still on track to win the NL East division; nevertheless recent ugly play has cut lead down to next to nothing. The Phils have lost 8 of 10, thanks to of all reasons, the offense. In the losses, they have averaged 2.3 runs per game, far below normal for a team that was ringing up 5.5 RPG before slump. Over the next week, Philly still has trips to Texas and Atlanta. They must avoid close contests, since they are 30-11 in games decided by two or more runs.
Atlanta 39-41 -8.4 units
Remember when Atlanta was whippin’ up on all-comers at Turner Field not that long ago? The Braves are still a highly respectable 28-14 (+9.7 units) at home, yet are only 3-6 in last nine for Bobby Cox in the white uniforms. With 11-27 record as visitors, road warriors hardly apply to these Braves. Maybe a quick trip to Canada (Toronto) will help Atlanta over the weekend before returning home. The Bravos must find a way to avoid or conquer one run games, since they are beastly 4-20.
New York Mets 38-39 -10.6 units
You fire your manager in the middle of the night and the owner of the team wants no part of the blame, despite known meddling. Somehow the club wins four of six contests on road, in spite of forlorn prior record, only to come home and lose a series to a Seattle team in shambles, go figure. The Mets are like a ship lost at sea, as interim manager Jerry Manuel has called out players, gotten kicked out of game in short tenure and had extremely rare fielding practice during the season. By all appearances this is a team without a heart or soul.
UGLY
San Diego 32-47 -18.6 units
Building a ballpark downtown, where the night air is thicker than a three-pound porterhouse, in retrospect might not have been ideal for team looking to upgrade offense. Additionally, it only seems like the outfielders need binoculars to see one another from their positions. With this information, how does one account for 11-25 road (-13.1 units), when San Diego players should be thrilled to play in parks where could actually score runs? GM Kevin Towers huffed and puffed earlier in the season about taking this team apart, but one question, who assembled the lineup that is in the bottom 20 percent of virtually every offensive category? With the starting pitchers feeling like they have to throw a shutout each time out, the pressure gets to them. Maybe the Padres should schedule more day games since they are 20-37 at night.
Cleveland 35-43 -19.9 units
Let’s give Cleveland credit; they might be better than they look. The Indians are 18th in runs scored and 11th in runs allowed. They are 20-20 at home (-11 units, ouch) and 27-27 when favored (-13.3 units, double ouch). Under the lights the Tribe is also .500 (27-27), but in Chris Farley-speak, the -8.4 units does leave a mark. Digging just at the surface, this Cleveland club is a fraud by checking other more important numbers. They are 29th in batting average and 26th in total bases, meaning they are prone to occasional offense outbursts, which artificially inflate on the field day-to-day production. If not for Cliff Lee at 10-1 (Indians 11-3 in all starts), the starting rotation would be further exposed and bullpen has 4.81 ERA, with 8-14 record and sad-sack 52 percent save percentage.
Seattle 28-50 -24.8 units
After winning 88 games in 2007, Seattle believed they were on their way to seriously competing with the Angels again. Instead, what happened is reality set in. The Mariners have six everyday players in the lineup who were born in the 1970’s. Most or all are past their prime and last season could have been one last hurrah. There is a laundry list of negative numbers hanging over Seattle and nothing suggests today, the M’s will be better soon. Thanks Bill Bavasi.

Our guy Sal has hit amazing TEN straight here and has a play in afternoon action. I’ve never seen a guy this hot in baseball for sustained period. Our Trend play was a Winner yesterday and we have a perfect one this afternoon. The System plays are rather meager and the one listed below is the best of the bunch at 73.5 percent, still very solid, just not up to our standards and will not be counted as official play. Good Luck.
Free Baseball System -1) PLAY AGAINST any team like Texas who allows 5.2 or more runs a game on the season (AL), after allowing four runs or less in four straight games. The logic speaks for itself in this system. Over the course of a 162-game schedule, every team will do something out of character for periods of time. Boston has had hitting slumps, San Diego actually scored five or more runs a few games in a row, elements contrary to normal patterns. The facts are the Rangers pitching staff is perfidious across the board, including the bullpen with a 5.04 ERA. This system has won 73.5 percent of the time in the last five seasons with 50-18 record.
Free Baseball Trend -2) The Chicago Cubs are 10-0 against the money line in home games with a hot bullpen whose ERA is under 2.00 the last five games this season.
Free Baseball Selection -3) Sal was 4-0 in personal plays, including 10th straight Winner here. This raises his record to 34-7, 82.9 percent in own action and is on the Cubs again this afternoon. He did email saying he believes another play might be coming in tonight’s action. Stay tuned.

Having a little fun Betting NBA Draft
With the first pick in the NBA Draft, the Chicago Bulls take ____________? There are only two choices for GM John Paxson to make, Derrick Rose of Memphis or Michael Beasley. Whatever decision he makes, it will explain the confidence he has in his own job with the Bulls. Purely from ability and ready to go talent, Beasley is the choice and would provide new coach Vinny Del Negro immediate help. Rose on the other hand would play one of the most important positions on the floor. As talented as Rose is, nobody has mentioned him being as good as Chris Paul a couple of seasons ago and would not come into the NBA as top-10 point guard from the get-go. He’s not known as exceptional passer at this juncture, thus would need to develop, does Paxson have the time to wait?A few sportsbooks have Rose at 1-8 odds and Beasley at 4-1 to be the top pick and would have to agree the former Memphis star is headed back to his home town.
Beasley at number two is not a given for Miami. After being listed at 6’10 coming out of high school, the former K-State star was recalibrated and is couple of centimeters either way of 6’8, depending who you listen to. Miami’s Pat Riley holds the second pick and speculation is rising he has serious reservations about Beasley’s character, with the most common word used to describe him being “goofy”. In a league that goes after disgraced a NBA referee to get shoe money back for opprobrious behavior, selecting a Disney character might be a reach.
Sources around the NBA have stated the Heat had secret workouts with Pac-10 guard stars Jerryd Bayless and O.J. Mayo. Riley would prefer to have a running mate with Dwayne Wade in the backcourt and are shopping Beasley or willing to trade pick to move down and draft one of the two aforementioned players.
At this time, what the Heat will do is not known, thus we can only deal with the present possibilities. Other wagers at various sportsbooks include draft positions to wager on. According to front office leaks, if Mayo is still available at #3, Minnesota will select him, proving why this wager is 4/15 odds. At four, Seattle wants to start building a solid backcourt and anyone other than Bayless is a reach, though Russell Westbrook and Eric Gordon have been thrown around on Sonics blogs. Bayless is 4/5, with Westbrook interesting play at 9/4.
Kevin Love is his own prop wager, trying to guess where he might go in slots five-ten. He’s at 2-3 odds to be taken by Memphis; however they are not enamored with him and will likely be drafting him for somebody else. If that does happen, numbers eight or nine are the most logical slots, being Milwaukee and Charlotte. Though Love makes sense in either location depending on front office thoughts, despot owners have other ideas, making 6-1 odds seem like a long shot.
Here are a few other head-to-head prop bets to consider, in who is drafted higher.
Joe Alexander -130
Danillo Gallinari +100
Joe Alexander speaks fluent Mandarin and could converse with Yi Jianlian; this should not be enough of a reason for Milwaukee to draft him. Gallinari goes to New Jersey at 10 and Alexander likely to Sacramento at 12th slot.
Brook Lopez +135
Kevin Love -170
The Oregon native and UCLA star is destined to be picked earlier, though unlike Lopez, might not be with the team that chooses him for long.
Eric Gordon -210
Danillo Gallinari +165
Gordon’s stock has improved the last three weeks and will be chosen in 6-9 range, ahead of the top European prospect.
Other prop wagers are also available and here is a look at some of those.
Courtney Lee will be taken in first or second round?
A modest -140 is reasonable for a player with scoring skills, who undoubtedly will be chosen in the later stages of the first round.
Brandon Rush will be a lottery pick? (1-14)
With most draft boards having Rush at 15 or higher, this is worth a small wager that Rush is picked by Portland at 13. Blazers GM Kevin Pritchard has his frontcourt of the future with Greg Oden and LaMarcus Aldridge and will need to start adding players in the backcourt. Rush can play defense, is superior athlete and shooting range has improved dramatically in years at Kansas. Take the +140 and keep fingers crossed.
Joe Alexander will be 8th pick in the draft
As noted previously, unless a multitude of trades occur, the Bucks would be foolish to take a player who really only produced in his junior year at West Virginia. Is this a sign of continued improvement or a player reaching his potential? His workout numbers were very good, but most NBA teams draft on need and potential, does he fit either for the Bucks? The +200 not to be 8th pick seems like a gift, however we are talking about the Milwaukee front office, where logic does not dictate success.
Roy Hibbert Over/Under 19.5 draft position
No team with needs in the top 19 spots has a need for a limited athlete like Hibbert. He deserves credit for working hard and improving every year at Georgetown, he seems destined to be a career backup. Take the -130 on the Over.
Brook Lopez +135
Kevin Love -170
The Oregon native and UCLA star is destined to be picked earlier, though unlike Lopez, might not be with the team that chooses him for long.
Eric Gordon -210
Danillo Gallinari +165
Gordon’s stock has improved the last three weeks and will be chosen in 6-9 range, ahead of the top European prospect.

Sal is the man, no doubt about. Readers are having fun just coming to this blog to pick up easy winners and Sal is goes for TEN in a row with tonight’s selection. Our System play returns with high quality return, winning 85.1 percent of the time. This evening’s Top Trend takes us to beautiful San Diego. Good Luck.
Free Baseball System -1) PLAY AGAINST road underdogs like the Reds with a money line of +125 to +175, as a poor NL hitting team (.250 or less BA) against a team with a good bullpen like Toronto (3.75 ERA or lower), who is frigid hitting team - batting .225 or worse over their last 15 games. This system has been a winner 85.1 percent of the time with 40-7 record. Facing the Jays Roy Halladay won’t make matters easier.
Free Baseball Trend -2) MINNESOTA is 13-2 against the money line vs. an average bullpen whose ERA is 3.75 to 4.50 this season.
Free Baseball Selection -3) Were running out of superlatives for Sal from the left Coast Connection, posting his NINTH straight Free Winner here at 3DW. Tonight he’s on the Chicago Cubs seeking to improve his record to at least 30-7 on personal plays.

Bet these five starting pitchers to go Over the total
For most casual baseball fans, the game is too slow, not enough action and more runs needed to be scored, similar to a slow-pitch softball game. While major league baseball has added the thrilling aspect of players and fans to be impaled by exploding maple bats, most prefer to see runs being scored either going to the ballpark or on television. Many lukewarm bettors of baseball tend to bet Over the total, since that is their preferred interest in the sport as a whole. Since pitching is such an important aspect of baseball, here is a current roster of the best pitchers to wager on for games exceeding the total.What fits our criterion is a starting hurler still in the rotation, despite surrendering a ton of runs and his team playing Over continually when he takes the horsehide. A perfect example is Tom Gorzelanny (5-6, 6.59 ERA) of Pittsburgh. The 25-year left-hander made serious progress in 2007, with 14-10 record and respectable 3.88 ERA. With above average fastball and slider, this was supposed to be his breakout season. Instead, he has been less effective than SPF30 in Death Valley, CA. His 6.59 earned run average is easily determined by allowing more walks than strikeouts (50-39) on the season, while already seeing 12 balls going over the fence. On the year, Gorzelanny is 11-3 OVER with the Bucs, including perfection on the road with 7-0 OVER mark. Of course when you have 8.63 road ERA, Over’s come much easier.
It’s hard to believe Livan Hernandez (8-4, 5.23) is only 33 years old, since it seems he’s been around longer than Jamie Moyer. Packing a robust 245 pounds on a 6’2 frame, Hernandez no longer has overpowering stuff and pitches out of the stretch more than most relievers. He’s allowed 150 base hits in just over 103 innings of work, as opposing teams are hitting almost .350 against him. It doesn’t matter right or left-handed batters either, as the former hits .345 and the latter .351 versus Hernandez. Miraculously, Minnesota has won 12 of his 17 starts, thanks in part to scoring five or more runs in a dozen of his trips up the hill. Livan and the Twins are 12-5 OVER, as they have favorites just once when manager Ron Gardenhire handed him the ball, yet have won 11 of 16 times. Presently, playing a Twins and Over parlay with Hernandez pitching has solid winning potential.
Another hurler who has produced great results for those preferring to wager Over the number is Texas’ Vincente Padilla (10-3, 3.74). The Nicaragua native has had a career easier to read than Cat in the Hat. If Padilla pitches 200 or more innings in a season, injures will follow. After chucking 200 in 2006, he managed just 120 innings last season with sore arm. Rejuvenated, he’s exceptional in notorious hitters’ park in Arlington. Texas is 11-5 OVER when Padilla is starting pitcher and has won 13 of his 16 trips. In fact, the Rangers have won 10 of his 11 last starts, but scoring almost 7.5 runs per game will help the cause. Texas is 7-3 OVER as underdog, winning eight times with 30-year old on the mound.
Neither Philadelphia’s Kyle Kendrick (6-3, 5.06) nor the White Sox Javier Vazquez (7-6, 4.50) is at the top of respective team rotation, yet both are good Over bets with 10-5 mark. Kendrick is still a young pitcher at 23, however needs to start missing more bats if he desires lengthy professional career. This season he’s given up 93 hits in just over 78 innings and averages only a touch over two strikeouts per start. He’s backed up with potent Phillies offense and is 7-3 OVER when favored.
After beginning the season well, the Sox Vazquez has struggled mightily in June. He is 2-2, yet has surrendered 19 runs in four starts covering 23.1 innings. Included have been 29 hits, 12 walks and six long balls. Vazquez is 5-1, 4.78 ERA at U.S. Cellular Field and the Pale Hose are 6-0 OVER in those encounters. Like all the pitchers mentioned, he receives tremendous run support, with the Sox scoring 9.1 RPG when Vazquez is the man on the mound on the south side of Chicago.
