    Guys,

    I've got a different situation on the job Tuesday and, after the night-before posts, I won't be able to add anything until after noon central time. The good news is we have no early starts so I should be able to get it all in well before the games start.

    Good luck, everybody!

      Bettor's best friend: Tuesday's wagering tips

      Lines to keep an eye on

      Minnesota Lynx at New York Liberty – This game’s total has escalated to 161 after opening three points lower. Eight of the last 10 meetings between these teams have gone UNDER.

      Padres at Rays – A number of sportsbooks have moved the total in this game to 8.5 after opening at 8.

      Pirates at Rangers – Texas is on fire right now and opened as -250 favorites but that moneyline is as low as -220 at a couple of wagering outlets.

      Yankees at Diamondbacks – The total for this matchup has dropped a half run after opening at 10.

      Reds at Athletics – Most shops have moved the total in this game to 7.5 after opening at 8.

      Weather report
      (Forecasts are extracted from Weather.com the night before the game.)

      Red Sox at Rockies – A 14 mph wind is projected to blow out to right field.

      Braves at White Sox – A 30 percent chance of rain is expected throughout the game.

      Marlins at Orioles – The forecast calls for a 30-40 percent chance of precipitation.

      Who’s hot

      Argentina is 2-0 in the World Cup, outscoring opponents 5-1.

      After losing four straight, the Lynx (WNBA) are 2-0 SU and ATS in their last two games.

      The Rangers are winners of eight consecutive games.

      The Red Sox and White Sox have each won six straight games.

      Who’s not

      France has yet to score a goal in this year’s World Cup.

      The Nationals have dropped six games in a row.

      Chicago (WNBA) is 0-4 SU and 1-3 ATS in its last four games.

      Key stat

      3.07 – Earned run average of the San Diego Padres – the lowest mark in MLB. The Friars rank third-to-last in runs scored but have continued to get stellar pitching efforts from starters and relievers. The first-place Pads send Mat Latos (3.19 ERA) to the bump Tuesday.

      Suspensions that shouldn’t be overlooked

      France is reeling amid team controversy but South Africa has a couple of suspensions that could leave the team vulnerable Tuesday. Goalie Itumeleng Khune is out of the match after receiving a red card last game and midfielder Kagiso Dikgacoi will also not play after receiving his second yellow card of the tournament. Covers Expert Ben Burns believes these suspensions will be key to France’s victory in his Free Pick selection.

      Notable quotable

      "First of all, I would like to specify that the punishment that was handed out to Nicolas Anelka is justified. I support the federation in this matter. No one can permit themselves to act like that, either in the dressing room or elsewhere."

      -- France coach Raymond Domenech said of his decision to remove Anelka from the team after the two got into a heated argument during Saturday’s game. French players were not pleased with the move (see note below).

      Tips and notes

      - The French national team is in absolute chaos right now. Players walked off the field before practice Sunday in protest of the expulsion of a teammate after their coach, Raymond Domenech, kicked him off the team. Domenech said that his team was acting with “stupidity” and “imbecility” before it returned to practice Monday. Team captain Patrice Evra has not been assigned the same title for Tuesday’s match because he instigated the walkout. France is in a must-win situation versus South Africa but Domenech said his players have “expended a lot of energy” amid these events. The South Africans are +200 to win the match.

      - If the Mexico-Uruguay match Tuesday ends in a draw both teams advance. The “draw” betting option is the favorite at -135 so oddsmakers are assuming both teams are content with that outcome. The total for the game is the lowest of the tournament at 1.5 which even further indicates Vegas believes this will be a low-scoring affair. Uruguay played a 0-0 match versus France and will likely use the same gameplan in this one because a draw gives them the No. 1 position coming out of the group.

      - Since eliminating a toe tap in his swing, Rangers slugger Josh Hamilton has been the hottest hitter in baseball. Texas hitting coach Clint Hurdle has been trying to get Hamilton to remove the timing mechanism from his swing since spring training but the lefty wasn’t able to until June 1. Since then, Hamilton has raised his batting average from .289 to .337. He went 5-for-6 on Sunday and has 25 RBIs, seven homers and a .447 average this month. A bettor might be able to find a nice total bases matchup with Hamilton while he still is on this tear.

        Hot Lines: Today's best MLB bets
        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        Chicago Cubs at Seattle Mariners (-105, 6.5)

        After rumors swirled about Aramis Ramirez quitting on the Cubs, the third baseman cleared the air Monday and defended his manager.

        "If anybody knows how to handle the club, it's Lou (Piniella),” he said. “As players, we haven't gotten it done.

        "We have to hit better, pitch better and field better. We have to get it done between the lines. We haven't done it yet."

        Chicago ranks 28th in fielding percentage and have committed 55 errors this season – the third-most in MLB. The Cubbies committed two errors Saturday which led to four unearned runs in a 12-0 loss to Anaheim.

        The Cubs returned the favor Sunday with a 12-1 victory but the team is still looking for answers, having dropped 12 of its last 20 games.

        "It's embarrassing when you make as many mental mistakes as we have,” Ramirez continued. “We're big leaguers. That isn't supposed to happen to a veteran team. It's one thing to make physical errors, another to make mental errors. You have to be prepared mentally all the time."

        Don’t look now but Seattle has quietly won four consecutive games – tying its longest streak of the season. Look for Jason Vargas to put together another strong outing as he’s only given up more than three runs in just one start this season.

        Pick: Mariners


        Florida Marlins at Baltimore Orioles (+115, 8.5)


        The Fins’ visit to an American League ballpark couldn’t come at a better time.

        Stud shortstop Hanley Ramirez has been bothered by a hamstring injury the past two games and the designated hitter spot that will be available to Florida Tuesday could be the perfect place for him.

        "If that is the case, and that's the way we've got to go, it's the way we've got to go," manager Freddi Gonzalez said of using Ramirez in the DH role.

        Ramirez is hitting .360 with two homers and eight RBIs in his last seven games so having him in the batting order is just as important as having him playing in the field. Bettors will want to confirm Ramirez is on the lineup card before placing a wager in this game.

        The Marlins will face Baltimore’s No. 2 man, Jeremy Guthrie, who has lost four straight starts. The right hander has received five total runs of support from the hapless O’s offense during his losing streak.

        Pick: Marlins


        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        Streaking and Slumping Pitchers
        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        Streaking

        Justin Verlander, Detroit Tigers (8-4, 3.58 ERA)


        The Tigers ace has won three straight starts since dropping back-to-back outings at the end of May. Verlander has given up just seven runs on 16 hits in that span including an eight-inning effort in his most recent trip to the bump in which he struck out 11 batters in a 8-2 win over the Washington Nationals.

        Tommy Hanson, Atlanta Braves (7-3, 3.38 ERA)

        The Braves young stud is rolling, winning four of his last six starts, boasting an ERA just north of 2.00 and having not tasted defeat since the middle of May. Hanson is coming off a seven-inning showing against the Tampa Bay Rays, allowing just three hits and striking out six batters in a 6-2 victory. He’s 4-1 with a 2.34 ERA away from home this season.


        Slumping

        Ross Ohlendorf, Pittsburgh Pirates (0-5, 5.22 ERA)


        The Bucs starter is still on the hunt for his first win of 2010. The right hander has lost back-to-back starts, most recently allowing five runs on six hits in just over six innings of work in a 5-4 loss to the Chicago White Sox. Ohlendorf has struggled with his command and has allowed five home runs over his nine starts this season.

        This Day in Baseball
        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        On June 22 in Baseball History...

        1926 - The Cardinals pick up 39-year-old Grover Cleveland Alexander on waivers from the Cubs to help in the pennant chase. He'll go 9-7 down the stretch.

        1932 - The N.L., at a meeting of club presidents, finally approves players wearing numbers. The A.L. had started in 1929.

        1946 - Bill Veeck heads a syndicate that purchases the Cleveland Indians. This launches Veeck on a long career as a lively promoter.

        1947 - Ewell Blackwell just misses pitching back-to-back no-hitters when Eddie Stanky of the Brooklyn Dodgers singles with one out in the ninth inning. Blackwell then gets Al Gionfriddo before Jackie Robinson bangs out a single. Blackwell wins 4-0, his ninth straight win to improve to 11-2. Stanky's hit ends Blackwell's hitless-inning skein at 19.

        1976 - Randy Jones pitches the Padres to a 4-2 win over the Giants, and ties Christy Mathewson's 63-year-old N.L. record by going 68 innings without a base on balls. He receives a standing ovation from the home crowd after striking out Darrell Evans to end the seventh. His streak ends when he walks catcher Marc Hill leading off the eighth. It is Jones's 13th win of the year.

        1982 - Pete Rose doubles off John Stuper in the third inning of a 3-2 loss to the Cardinals for his 3,772nd career hit, moving him past Hank Aaron into second place on baseball's all-time list.

        1984 - In a teary home plate ceremony before the Twins-White Sox game at the Metrodome, Calvin Griffith and his sister, Thelma Haynes, sign a letter of intent to sell their 52 percent ownership of the Twins to Minneapolis banker Carl Pohlad for $32 million. Griffith and his sister had been involved with the franchise since 1922, when owner Clark Griffith of the then-Washington Senators adopted them.

        1987 - Tom Seaver abandons his comeback attempt with the injury-riddled Mets and retires with a career record of 311-205, an ERA of 2.86, 3,640 strikeouts, and 61 shutouts.

        1990 - The last-place Braves fire manager Russ Nixon and replace him with general manager Bobby Cox, who last managed Toronto in 1985.

        1994 - Mets reliever John Franco earns his 253rd career save to break Dave Righetti's record for most saves by a lefthander.

          Lady Luck: Today's WNBA best bets
          -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          Minnesota Lynx at New York Liberty (-5, 161)

          Getting star guard Seimone Augustus back in the lineup has given the Minnesota Lynx a much-needed shot in the arm. The team is 2-2 since the WNBA veteran returned from an abdominal injury last week – and an even better 3-1 against the spread.

          Augustus dropped in 16 points in the Lynx’s 92-78 victory over the Tulsa Shock as 1.5-point road underdogs Saturday. She’s averaging 18 points in her first four games back and has Minnesota on a two-game winning run heading into Tuesday’s outing in New York.

          "I just felt like I had a lot of bounce in my legs," Augustus told reporters after taking the first of two wins over Tulsa this week. "It was a great flow, unlike the Phoenix game and the L.A. game. You could tell that plays were broken, and we were going one-on-one and not really trusting each other. Tonight, you could see that we made the extra passes and people got into their sweet spots to make shots."

          The Lynx got a solid overall effort in Saturday’s win, with four players in double figures and 19 points coming off the bench. New York and Minnesota have split their last four meetings over the past two seasons but have yet to play in 2010. The Liberty are currently stuck in a two-game skid and have won just twice in their past six contests.

          Pick: Minnesota


          Chicago Sky at Connecticut Sun (-8, 153)


          After some shaky moments on the road last week, the Connecticut Sun are back inside Mohegan Sun Arena, where things have been going according to plan this year.

          Connecticut is a stellar 6-0 at home this season, including a perfect 6-0 mark against the spread as host. The Sun haven’t played in Hartford since knocking off the Indiana Fever, 86-77 as 2.5-point favorites, on June 11.

          Connecticut is riding high after beating the Phoenix Mercury in Phoenix for the first time in five years Sunday. The Sun hung on for a 96-94 victory as 5-point road underdogs despite blowing a 21-point lead in the second half.

          "It was a typical game between our two teams," coach Mike Thibault told reporters. "We knew they were going to make a run at some point. I thought we played great for almost three quarters, then we went on a bad stretch and we didn't talk real well on defense for a few possessions and they made some big shots."

          The Sun have one of the top-ranked defenses in the WNBA, giving up just 75.5 points per game. That number shrinks at home, allowing visiting teams to score just under 70 points a contest. Connecticut opened the 2010 schedule with a 74-61 win over the Sky at home, covering as a 2.5-point favorite. Chicago is currently on a four-game slide heading into Tuesday.

          Pick: Connecticut

                        San Francisco Giants at Houston Astros [8:05 PM ET]

                        Giants (-160, O/U 6.5): San Francisco is quite happy to see the Astros in this series, as they have won all 6 meetings with them this year. In total, San Francisco is 14-5 SU this year against teams in the National League Central division. The Giants are 38-30 SU overall this year, 1.5 games behind the Padres in their division. The Giants are +3.17 and +0.17 units both SU and on the RL respectively this season. The Giants have received world class pitching efforts from their starting rotation of late, as they've held 8 of their last 9 opponents to 4 runs or fewer. Offensively, the Giants have scored 6 runs or more in 3 of their last 6 outings. P Tim Lincecum will get the start tonight, as he looks to build on another impressive season. Lincecum is 7-2 this year, with an ERA of 3.11 and a WHIP of 1.22. The Giants are 20-7 in their last 27 games against a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. Giants are 1-4 in their last 5 road games vs. a right-handed starter. The Giants are 4-0 in Lincecum's last 4 starts against the National League Central. San Francisco is 7-1 in Lincecum's last 8 starts with 5 days of rest. The Giants are 7-2 in Lincecum's last 9 starts after allowing 5 runs or more in their previous game.

                        Giants are 6-2 last 8 road games against a team with a home winning percentage less than .400%.

                        Over is 7-3 last 10 road games.

                        Key Injuries - LF Mark DeRosa (wrist) is out.

                        PROJECTED SCORE: 3 (UNDER - Total of the Day)

                        Astros: Houston is in complete turmoil, as they have the 2nd worst record in the National League at 26-44 SU. Only Pittsburgh has a worse record in the National League entering today. Houston has lost 4 consecutive games, and 8 of their past 10 overall. Things aren't going to get any easier, as they face off against a team that has already beaten them all 6 times they've played this year. Offensively, the Astros have been limited to 4 runs or fewer in each of their past 5 games. P Roy Oswalt will take the mound today, as he continues to pitch well despite no run support from his teammates. Oswalt is only 5-8 this year despite a season long ERA of 3.12 and a WHIP of 1.08. The Astros are 16-43 in their last 59 games following a loss. The Astros are 21-47 in their last 68 games against a right-handed starter. Houston is 37-15 in Oswalt's last 52 home starts against a team with a winning record. The Astros are 44-18 in Oswalt's last 62 starts against the National League West. Houston is 1-6 in Oswalt's last 7 Tuesday starts overall.

                        Astros are 5-0 last 5 when their opponent allows 5 runs or more in their previous game.
                        Under is 7-3 last 10 home games against a team with a winning record.

                        Key Injuries - C Humberto Quintero (head) is questionable.

                        PROJECTED SCORE: 1



                        Los Angeles Dodgers at Los Angeles Angels [10:05 PM ET]

                        Dodgers (-115, O/U 8): The Dodgers limp into their interleague series with their crosstown rival tonight. The Dodgers have lost their past 4 games, and 7 of their last 10 overall. After leading the National League West division briefly, the Dodgers have since fallen back to 3rd place. The Dodgers are 38-31 SU overall, including 15-18 SU on the road. The Dodgers are +0.22 and -5.08 units both SU and on the RL this season. Offensively, the Dodgers are really struggling with their team batting average. The Dodgers simply aren't consistent enough offensively of late, with Manny Ramirez being one of the biggest culprits. Lefty P Clayton Kershaw will take the ball today, as he looks to lead his team to their 11th win in his 16 starts overall this year. Kershaw is 7-3 this year, with an ERA of 2.96 and a WHIP of 1.28. The Dodgers are 15-6 in their last 21 games against a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30. The Dodgers are 8-25 in their last 33 interleague road games against a right-handed starter. The Dodgers are 9-0 in Kershaw's last 9 starts against a team with a winning record. The Dodgers are 4-0 in Kershaw's last 4 road starts against a team with a winning record. The Dodgers are 1-9 in Kershaw's last 10 starts during game 1 of a series.

                        Dodgers are 13-3 last 16 after allowing 2 runs or less in their previous game.
                        Under is 4-1 last 5 road games against a team with a winning home record.

                        Key Injuries - 3B Blake DeWitt (knee) is probable.

                        PROJECTED SCORE: 4 (Side of the Day)

                        Angels: The Angels are excited to meet up with their crosstown rivals yet again this month, and they are hoping for a similar outcome in this series. The Angels swept the Dodgers earlier this month, scoring 20 runs in their 3 game series. Speaking of 20 runs in a series, that's exactly how many runs they scored against the Cubs in their most recent series. The Angels are 39-33 SU overall this year, 3.5 games behind the Rangers in the American League West standings. The Angels are +5.65 and +9.11 units both SU and on the RL respectively this year. P Ervin Santana will take the mound tonight, as he is 6-5 with an ERA of 3.91 and a WHIP of 1.36 this year. The Angels are 5-1 in their last 6 games against a left-handed starter. The Angels are 14-5 in their last 19 interleague games against a left-handed starter. The Angels are 4-1 in Santana's last 5 home starts against a team with a winning record. The Angels are 14-4 in Santana's last 18 starts during game 1 of a series. The Angels are 1-4 in Santana's last 5 interleague starts overall.

                        Angels are 6-1 last 7 games following a loss.
                        Over is 6-1 last 7 interleague games against a team with a winning record.

                        Key Injuries - SS Erick Aybar (knee) is questionable.

                        PROJECTED SCORE: 2

                              Daily Sports Roundup: June 22

                              Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Giants and Astros send their aces to the mound for their game in Houston, while the World Cup continues with four matchups.

                              Chasing the World Cup . . .

                              The World Cup schedule expands to four games per day on Tuesday, with Mexico vs. Uruguay, France vs. South Africa, Nigeria vs. South Korea, and Greece vs. Argentina. Winless France will be looking to salvage something from the World Cup as they take on the host team as a +125 favorite; South Africa is pegged at +210, with draw odds of +230. Argentina is a -175 favorite against Greece (+550), with draw odds of +250, while South Korea is favored at +145 over Nigeria (+175), with draw odds of +225. The closest match of the day, though, is expected to be Mexico (+250) vs. Uruguay (+275), with the draw odds set at -110 for the meeting between those two 1-0-1 teams.

                              Meeting up on the diamond . . .

                              The NL-only matchup for Tuesday has San Francisco at Houston, with the Giants' Tim Lincecum (7-2, 3.11 ERA) slated to take on the Astros' Roy Oswalt (5-8, 3.12 ERA). Righthander Lincecum is coming off two consecutive interleague victories, holding the Orioles and Athletics to four earned runs on 15 hits over 14 innings of work (and fanning 17 batters). Righthander Oswalt has also won two straight starts, giving up four earned runs on 10 hits over his 14 innings of work against the Royals and Rockies. Oswalt fanned 16 batters in those two outings while issuing only three walks.

                              The interleague schedule for Tuesday then has Florida at Baltimore, Cleveland at Philadelphia, Kansas City at Washington, St. Louis at Toronto, San Diego at Tampa Bay, Detroit at the Mets, Pittsburgh at Texas, Atlanta at the White Sox, Minnesota at Milwaukee, Boston at Colorado, the Dodgers at the Angels, Cincinnati at Oakland, the Cubs at Seattle, and the Yankees at Arizona. Andy Pettitte (8-2, 2.47 ERA) will take on Dan Haren (7-5, 4.71 ERA) in that Yankees/D-Backs matchup. Lefthander Pettitte was beaten by the Phillies last time out (two earned runs in seven innings), while righthander Haren is coming off a loss to Boston (four earned runs over 5 2-3 innings)

                              Rounding out the Roundup . . .

                              Finally, there are two games on the WNBA's schedule for Tuesday, with Minnesota at New York and Chicago at Connecticut. The Sky (4-8 straight-up, 6-6 against-the-spread) enter Tuesday's contest riding a four-game losing streak that has dropped them to the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings. Chicago fell 65-61 on the road in overtime to Washington last time out, despite 17 points and nine boards from Sylvia Fowles. The Sun (8-3 SU, 8-2-1 ATS) lead the Eastern standings, and edged Phoenix 96-94 last game. Tina Charles led the way with 24 points for the Sun that day.
