Monday's betting tips: Cubs scratch Dempster

Who’s hot

MLB: Tampa Bay has won 10 of its last 14 overall.

MLB: Philadelphia is 21-7 in its last 28 games against Florida.

Who’s not

MLB: Houston is 3-9 in Brett Myers’ last 12 starts.

MLB: Arizona has won three of its last 11 meetings with Milwaukee.

Key stat

2-5: The Washington Nationals have won just two games since Davey Johnson assumed managerial duties. The Nats were red-hot before Johnson took the help but have been outscored 35-19 since then.

Injury that shouldn’t be overlooked

Jose Reyes, New York Mets – Reyes is dealing with a Grade 1 hamstring strain and is expected to sit out Monday’s game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Reyes, who is hitting .354 with 30 stolen bases, doesn’t think he’ll miss more than a few days. The Mets are pegged as +100 underdogs against the Dodgers.

Game of the day

New York Yankees at Cleveland Indians (+115, 8.5)

Notable quotable

“The most important contest for me is Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest. For months, that’s the only thing I’m willing to think about. The first thing I see when I get up in the morning is what I have written on my mirror: Winning is the only option.” – Competitive eater Joey Chestnut on Monday’s Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest. Chestnut is set as a big -500 favorite.

Notes and tips

The Chicago Cubs have scratched Ryan Dempster from his scheduled start and will call up Casey Coleman to take the ball Monday against Washington. Dempster was hospitalized for a stomach virus Saturday and is also dealing with come back issues. The Cubs are 8-2 in his last 10 starts and will now have to hope some time in the minors did Coleman well. He was 2-4 with a 7.78 ERA in 10 appearances with Chicago earlier this season.

Already without its top two strikers, Peru may be without its best midfielder as well when the club plays its first Copa America match Monday. Juan Vargas is considered doubtful for the game with a calf injury. Jefferson Farfan and Claudio Pizarro have already been ruled up and the word is their replacements are also banged up.

Monday’s streaking and slumping starting pitchers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STREAKING

Brandon Morrow (4-4, 4.56 ERA), Toronto Blue Jays

Everyone knows this guy’s got lights-out stuff, but his lack of control often gets him into trouble. Basically, he’s in good shape if he’s not giving free passes to first base via balls out of the strikeout.

Well, over his last three starts Morrow has walked just five batters compared to 25 strikeouts. Not surprising, the results have been positive for Blue Jay backers. Toronto is 3-0 in Morrow’s last three starts.

"Power pitchers sometimes take a little longer than others to hit their stride and he's clearly hit it," Blue Jays manager John Farrell said after Morrow held the Pirates to one run while striking out 10 in seven innings of work.

Jordan Zimmerman (5-7, 2.63 ERA), Washington Nationals

This young righty hurler must be said to see the calendar turn pages. Zimmerman was absolutely lights out in the month of June going 3-1 with a microscopic 0.85 ERA over the six-start stretch.

He was the ultimate hard-luck loser in his last outing, allowing just one run in eight innings of work but picking up the loss in a 1-0 setback against Dan Haren and the Los Angeles Angels.

Despite the loss, the Nats are still 5-1 in Zimmerman’s last six appearances and the under is 7-1 in his last eight trips to the bump.


SLUMPING

Shaun Marcum (7-3, 3.16 ERA), Milwaukee Brewers

A starting pitcher’s job is to eat innings and give his team a chance to win every time he takes the mound. Shaun Marcum hasn’t been doing either of those things lately.

The former Blue Jays ace hasn’t gotten past the fifth inning in any of this last three starts. The Brew Crew are 0-3 and Marcum sports a bloated 9.00 ERA and a 2.00 WHIP (walks + hits per inning).

MLB run report: This week's best betting trends
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Every week, we update you on who's hot, who's not and situational betting spots in Major League Baseball.

HOT TEAM: New York Yankees

THIS SEASON: 50-32.
LAST WEEK: 5-1.
THIS WEEK'S SCHEDULE: At the Indians for three, home to the Rays for four.
THE SKINNY: It wasn’t long ago when the red-hot Red Sox strolled into The Bronx, swept the Yankees and left doubts as to just how good this installment of the Bombers really was. Well, quietly, the Yankees have bounced back nicely. They are winning series, getting timely hitting and as they enter Monday’s game with the Indians, they are in first place in the American League East, ahead of that same Boston team we just mentioned. And here’s some more good news for Yankees bettors. Derek Jeter is scheduled to return from the disabled list on Monday vs. the Indians. Sure, Jeter (.260 average, two home runs, 20 RBIs) is not having a banner season, and yes, his pursuit of 3,000 hits might be a distraction for this club. But the more bats, the better as New York tries to keep the momentum rolling. As always, when dealing with the Yankees, you have to a pay a price each and every time you step up to the window but wins are wins. And as we hit the dog days of summer, perhaps it’s a good idea to keep the Yankees in your back pocket, for those times when you need one of those victories.

COLD TEAM: Milwaukee Brewers

THIS SEASON: 45-41.
LAST WEEK: 1-5.
THIS WEEK'S SCHEDULE: Home to the Diamondbacks for three, home to the Reds for four.
THE SKINNY: Listen, the Brewers have big bats and just enough pitching to probably make them the favorite moving forward in the National League Central. But make no mistake - interleague play is not for them. Milwaukee ran into that aforementioned Yankees train in The Bronx last week, as the Brewers were swept out of New York. Then they were only able to salvage one of three games against Minnesota. That’s a bad stretch for a first-place team with aspirations of playing into October. In four of five losses last week, the Brewers scored two runs or less. And even though they scored 17 runs vs. the Twins, they left without much to show for it. Milwaukee has plenty of stars up and down the lineup, but the truth hurts lately, as outfielder Nyjer Morgan (.331) was the only one of them who owned a .300 or better average on Sunday night. Even in the weak NL Central, that might not be enough to get it done. A homestand against National League competition might be the right elixir this week, but you might want to let the Brewers show you something before jumping back on the wagon.

OVER TEAM: Minnesota Twins

O/U THIS SEASON: 39-40-3.
O/U LAST WEEK: 5-1.
THIS WEEK'S SCHEDULE: Home to the Rays for three, at the White Sox for four.
THE SKINNY: One of the tougher teams to figure out this season, partly because they’ve been so good in the Ron Gardenhire Era, the injury-riddled Twins are showing some life of late. While it may be too late to contend, you might want to have them on your over radar going forward. The Twins scored 22 runs vs. the Brewers over the weekend, and gave up 19 to the Dodgers in a mid-week, three-game set. Those numbers were delightful to over players, and perhaps they might continue. Minnesota has five players with at least 20 RBIs, including Danny Valencia with 42, and its team ERA was at 4.29 through Sunday. That all adds up to some run-filled games and consider this for the upcoming week: In a 9-7 win over Milwaukee on Sunday, Gardenhire had to use six pitchers. If that’s not a tired staff headed into the Tampa Bay series, we don’t know what one is. More runs may be on the way.

UNDER TEAM: San Diego Padres

O/U THIS SEASON: 38-43-4.
O/U LAST WEEK: 1-5.
THIS WEEK'S SCHEDULE: At the Giants for four, at the Dodgers for three.
THE SKINNY: If there’s a more non-descript team in the majors, let us know. The Padres are well under .500, they’re on television far too late for most bettors to truly know theirs ins and outs, and they simply cannot score runs. But the latter part of that makes them appealing, at least, to the under buyers out there. San Diego is on a nice little under roll, and with San Francisco and Los Angeles up next, chances are good that will continue. The Padres scored two runs -- total -- in a three-game series vs. Seattle over the weekend and haven’t scored more than five runs in their last eight contests. That’s a tough stretch, folks. Their Sunday lineup vs. the Mariners featured one hitter that was over .300 -- Chase Headley (.307) -- and he was batting third. With all due respect to the player, when Headley is in your No. 3 hole, you have problems. The pitching, however, is still there, and that’s what should peak your interest. Through Saturday night, Mat Latos and the Padres had a team ERA of 3.29. They play in a big ballpark, they have quality arms and no bats. That might just be a decent under recipe for the rest of the year.

Hot lines: Monday’s best MLB bets
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tampa Bay Rays at Minnesota Twins (+155, 7.5)

Interleague play was very good to the Tampa Bay Rays. With Sunday’s 8-3 win over the St. Louis Cardinals, the Rays finished with a 12-6 record against the National League.

They look to be a good bet to keep it going when they head to Minnesota.

Johnny Damon drove in four runs on Sunday and has seven hits over his last two games to pace the offense, but his value to this team goes well beyond his play between the lines.

"It's just everything that he does," Rays manager Joe Maddon said of Damon. "We need that kind of influence here. He just handles it as well as it possibly can be handled. The way he goes about his business."

James Shields is another guy who’s handling his business. Shields was just named to the AL All-Star squad along with teammates David Price and Matt Joyce and has allowed only five runs over his last four starts heading into Monday’s start.

We’ll eat the road chalk in this spot.

Pick: Rays


Toronto Blue Jays at Boston Red Sox (-130, 9.5)

The Boston Red Sox completed a three-game sweep of the Astros on Sunday and finished their road trip at 5-4 after dropping four out of their first five.

David Ortiz walked with the bases loaded in the top of the ninth inning Sunday to give Boston a 2-1 win after Josh Beckett threw eight strong innings.

Meanwhile, the Blue Jays showed a little more pop on Sunday with Eric Thames, Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion homering in the eighth inning to push the Jays to a 7-4 win over Philadelphia, snapping Cliff Lee’s shutout streak in the process.

The Jays send Brandon Morrow to the hill and he’s been money lately, allowing just four runs over his three-game winning streak.

Nine of Toronto’s last 11 have played under the total and we could be in for a low-scoring battle at Fenway in Game 1 of this series.

Pick: Under

Monday's six-pack

-- Set-up men can't be All-Stars; if you're not a starter or a closer, you're not one of the best six best pitchers on your team, so you can't be on an All-Star team. Do pinch-hitters make the All-Star team? Exactly.

-- Doug Fister (2.11), Dustin Moseley (2.21) have received the worst run support of any starting pitcher; Padres have been blanked five times in Moseley's sixteen starts.

-- Ichiro Suzuki would be a cool addition to Home Run Derby. Really.

-- CC Sabathia should've been named an All-Star, even if he couldn't pitch because he's starting next Sunday. He deserves the honor.

-- President of the United States makes $400,000 a year; major league baseball's minimum salary is $414,000. Go figure.

-- Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest added a women's division for this year's competition; can't wait to see that debacle.


***************


Monday's List of 13: My National League All-Star ballot........

In a perfect world, where I made all the decisions, this would be the NL ALL-Star team in Phoenix on July 12.

C-- Brian McCann Atl—Knocking in 17.7% of his baserunners; hitting .311 with a .386 OB% with 14 HRs, 47 RBI.

1B Joey Votto Cin— 12 HR's, 51 RBI and a .436 OB%. Close call over Prince Fielder, but both were on team either way.

2B Todd Walker, Pitt— Is in top 10 in NL in RBI, knocking in 19.7% of his baserunners, one of big reasons Pirates have shot at their first winning season since 1992. Brandon Phillips is a close second here.

3B Chipper Jones Atl—No longer has much range defensively, but he’s knocked in 22.6% of baserunners, which makes him the top choice in a weak field. Injuries to Wright/Zimmerman make this a thin position.

SS Jose Reyes, NYM—Tulowitzki/Drew are both worthy candidates, but Reyes has single-handedly turned the Mets from a tabloid laughingstock into a spunky Wild Card contender. Too bad he got hurt Saturday and is now likely to miss the All-Star Game.

LF—Ryan Braun Mil— Has 16 HR's, 62 RBI, .402 OB%; he's knocked in 22% of his baserunners, but is hitting .338 with 42 RBI at home, .305 with 20 RBI on road, and he's had more AB's on the road.

CF Matt Kemp, LA— If Dodgers were any good, he’d be challenging Reyes for NL MVP. 22 HRs, 64 RBI, .410 OB%....very big year.

RF Lance Berkman, StL-- Looks washed up LY, now has 21 HRs, 59 RBI and a .408 OB%. With Holliday/Pujols both missing lot of time because of injuries, Berkman has been the Cardinals' MVP.

DH—Prince Fielder, Mil—Another guy whose going to get wealthier after this season; really a toss-up at 1B with Votto, but would rather have Votto’s glove out there.

SP’s Cliff Lee, Phil— Had allowed one run in last 42 IP before losing in Toronto Sunday; allowed 130 baserunners in 122 IP this season. Lot like Roy Halladay, throws lot of innings, important in this day and age.

Roy Halladay, Phil—Takes lot of strain off his team’s shaky bullpen by going deep into just about every start, averaging 112.6 pitches/start. He throws strikes, keep fielders alert; like Lee, worth every penny.

Jair Jurrjens, Atl— 11-3, 1.89 in 15 starts. Not much else to say.

Closer: Joel Hanrahan, Pitt—No relation to opposing goalie in Slapshot, Bucs’ closer has yet to blow a save this season (22-22). Opponents hit .210 against him. The Pirates are contenders. Go figure.

Mgr: Kirk Gibson, Ariz—Has Snakes in contention. Only way he doesn’t win this award is if Pirates finish over .500 or Mets make the playoffs.
