Saturday’s betting tips: Ray Allen questionable for Game 1

Weather to watch

Seattle Mariners at New York Yankees – 12 mph winds are expected to blow out to center field.

Who’s hot

NBA: Celtics are 16-7-2 ATS in their last 25 games overall.

NBA: The under is 22-8 in the last 30 meetings between the Nuggets and Lakers.

NHL: Rangers are 31-15 in their last 46 home games.

MLB: St. Louis had won six of its last seven meetings with Atlanta ahead of Friday's action.

Who’s not

NBA: 76ers are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog.

NBA: Lakers are 4-13 ATS in their last 17 home games.

NBA: Capitals are 3-11 in their last 14 games as an underdog of +110 to +150.

MLB: Astros are 10-29 in J.A. Happ’s last 39 starts.

Key stat

1 – The Washington Capitals have lost just once this postseason after scoring the opening goal of a game. After being held to just one point in four playoff games spanning the end of the Boston series and the first of this series with the Rangers, Alex Ovechkin has recorded a point in three straight games, including the opening goal in Washington’s 2-1 Game 6 victory.

Injury that shouldn’t be overlooked

Ray Allen, Boston Celtics – Allen is listed as a game-time decision as he deals with a sprained ankle. After toughing it out through the last half of Boston’s opening-round series win over Atlanta, Allen indicated that he could sit out Game 1, hoping to be healthier as the Celtics’ series against the 76ers wears on.

Game of the day

Denver Nuggets at Los Angeles Lakers (-6, 196.5)

Notable quotable

“Kobe being dehydrated and all that and sick as a dog, coming out and trying to will us to a win, it’s disappointing to watch him give that type of effort … and we don’t get it from everybody. Our second- and third-best players are Drew and Pau and the reality is both of those guys got to play better in order for us to win.” – Los Angeles Lakers coach Mike Brown on Kobe Bryant’s supporting staff in Game 6’s loss to the Denver Nuggets. Bryant and the Lakers will have Meta World Peace back in the lineup for Game 7 after serving his suspension.

Notes and tips

Looking for any type of offensive spark in Game 7, the New York Rangers put rookie speedster Chris Kreider back up to the second line with Derek Stepan and captain Ryan Callahan in Friday’s practice. Kreider, who scored a couple big goals in the opening-round series win over Ottawa, has been stapled to the bench for most of this series against Washington following a couple of bad turnovers.

The Philadelphia 76ers may have covered in five of their last seven meetings with the Celtics, but Boston has a huge advantage in experience. Eight of Philadelphia’s nine regulars have never been out of the first round, while Boston’s nucleus is still intact after winning the title in 2008. The C’s opened as 5-point favorites for Saturday’s Game 1.

The Toronto Blue Jays have contacted the Philadelphia Phillies about acquiring Cole Hamels and Shane Victorino, according to Fox Sports’ Ken Rosenthal. Both Hamels and Victorino will be free agents at the end of the season and the Phillies are locked in to a handful of lengthy contracts already.

Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

Coming into Friday night's games, the batters who came to the plate with the most men on base, and the %age of those runners they knocked in:

97-- Freddie Freeman, Atl-- knocked in 20.6% of runners.

98-- David Freese, StL-- 19.4%. Mark McGwire-- good hitting coach.

100-- Michael Young, Tex-- 17%. Future Hall of Famer.

100-- Carlos Beltran, StL-- 17%. Guess he didn't like New York.

102-- Ike Davis, NYM-- 7.8%. Could it be he is overrated?

112-- Matt Holliday, StL-- 14.3%. For full year, is rarely under 16%.

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

Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but..........

13) The Twins have a $100M payroll this season? Damn, they're awful. You don't have to be Columbo to figure out that Ron Gardenhire will get fired soon-- its a lot easier to fire the manger than the $100M roster.

12) Red Sox payroll on Opening Day was $175,249,119 and they're #5-6 hitters Friday wore numbers 64-66, meaning they're minor leaguers.

11) Miami Marlins increased their payroll this year from $57M to $101M and they're finally starting to play like it, coming from behind to beat the Mets Friday night. Miami won nine of its last ten games.

10) In four games this week, Mets have outscored opponents 20-5 from the 7th inning on-- they're a mentally tough team. Just not that talented.

9) Mark McGwire is apparently a very good hitting coach; Cardinals are killing the ball, and all without Albert Pujols around to carry the squad.

8) Phillies' owners paid $30M to buy the team in 1981; they're now worth a cool $723M.

7) Carlos Gonzalez leads the major leagues, knocking in 29.9% of runners who were on base in his ABs; Josh Hamilton (27.4%) is next, with Wilson Betemit (27.1%) a surprising third. This only includes guys with 80+ ABs.

6) Bringing up the rear in that category are Nyjer Morgan (0-28), Danny Espinosa (1-63, but he homered Friday) and Marco Scutaro (1-56).

5) Speaking of which, Vernon Wells is making $24,642,857 this year, and has knocked in only four of 70 baserunners. What a debacle.

4) Who pays Yu Darvish's interpreter? Darvish or the Rangers? How much does he make? Where is he from? He's kind of an important guy, no?

3) Houston Astros have four players who earn more than $2.35M a year.

2) Since 1983, Fred Couples ('99) is the only pro golfer who parred the 17th at TPC Sawgrass by hitting his tee shot in the water, then chipping in from the drop area. Thats out of 1,412 balls in the water (before this week).

1) Bronx Bomber fans celebrated when Raul Ibanez hit a cheap homer into the first row of the right-centerfield bleachers last night, but the look on the face of Felix Hernandez said, "I ain't never coming here as a free agent."

NASCAR betting: Southern 500 preview and picks

There is no rest for the weary as the NASCAR Sprint Cup series heads to one of the toughest tracks on the circuit.

Darlington Raceway is the site of Saturday night’s Southern 500 - NASCAR’s oldest superspeedway event. Known as the track “Too Tough to Tame”, the abrasive surface of the 1.366-mile, egg-shaped oval provides challenges to teams seen nowhere else.

It’s a challenge that Greg Biffle is ready to take on. After a forgettable 2011, Biffle is on a roll. With one win and six Top-5 finishes in the first 10 races, Biffle is leading the points after surviving the carnage for a fifth-place showing at Talladega last weekend.

Biffle has two wins at Darlington and knows how to add to that total Saturday night. He’s under no illusion that he’s got Darlington’s number, though.

“There's no opportunity to correct or to gather it back up when you're that close to the wall, but you've got to run there because that's where all the speed is and the grip,” he told the media.” So if you make a little mistake or your car gets away from you a little bit, you've got a Darlington Stripe, and hopefully just a Darlington Stripe because you're going so fast, it can damage the car quickly.”

Denny Hamlin is hot and getting hotter. Like Biffle, he had 2011 season he’d rather forget. But with Tony Stewart’s championship-winning crew chief, Darian Grubb, on board, Hamlin has two wins this season. He won here in 2010 and could tame Darlington again Saturday night.

Don’t count out the latest series winner, Brad Keselowski. Keselowski has two wins this season, including a surprise win at Talladega. He finished third here last season and could easily go all the way to Victory Lane Saturday night.

Head-to-head

Matt Kenseth vs. Carl Edwards: Both of Greg Biffle’s teammates are capable of winning Saturday night. But neither has won at Darlington before. In fact, Kenseth, who currently sits second in the standings, has struggled here finishing outside the Top 10 in the last three races, including a 23rd-place showing last season.

Edwards on the other hand, is struggling this season, but has three Top-5 finishes in the last five races at Darlington, including a second-place performance last season. Look for Edwards’ good fortune to continue at Darlington with a solid finish ahead of Kenseth.

Tony Stewart vs. Dale Earnhardt Jr.: Both drivers are winless here, and each has an agenda. Stewart wants a rebound from a poor finish at Talladega last week while Earnhardt wants to continue his streak of six consecutive Top-10 finishes, which ties his career best. Neither driver has a Darlington record to brag about, but look for Earnhardt to do whatever he can to continue the momentum as he gets closer to his first win since 2008.

Bottom line

Nineteen races at Darlington have been won from the pole - the most productive starting position. Dale Jarrett was the last driver to win from the pole in 1997.The deepest in the field that a race winner has started was 43rd, in the track’s inaugural race in 1950 by Johnny Mantz. That race, however, had a 75-car field.

Picks

Greg Biffle (+900)
Brad Keselowski (+1,200)
Denny Hamlin (+1,200)

Capitals @ Rangers (3-3)-- Last five games were decided by one goal each, with two of last four decided in OT; seems like series is destined to end in OT here. Caps have played six OT games in playoffs. Rangers are 4-22 on power play in series. In addition to being outshot 70-41 in last two games, Washington blocked 49 shots, compared to only 16 for New York. Caps killed 40 of 46 penalties in playoffs this spring. In six games, covering 22 periods, only four times have the Caps gotten 10+ shots on goal in a period. Under is 3-1-2 in this series so far.

Washington Capitals at New York Rangers (-140, 4.5)

(Series tied, 3-3)

While the three other second-round series flew right on by without much drama at all, the Rangers and Capitals have tried to make up for all of them. Multiple overtime games, costly late penalties, miraculous comebacks, the return to relevancy for Alexander Ovechkin - this series has had it all. And it will end under the bright lights of the big city at Madison Square Garden.

Just how good are they?

Perhaps New York shouldn’t be all that concerned about an upset. After all, the top-seeded Rangers are still alive in the East, which is more than you can say for the No. 1 club out West, Vancouver. Somehow they are finding ways to survive this postseason.

But it hasn't been pretty, and their lack of scoring depth has extended their first two series far longer than expected. You have to ask yourself, at some point, will all these losses come back to haunt them?

Last season, the Bruins, for instance, lost nine total games en route to the Stanley Cup. The season before, the Blackhawks lost six overall. Very modest numbers across four rounds. The Rangers have already lost six games this postseason and are just one game over .500 (7-6). That sound like a Cup run to you?

Also take into account this: The competition. Say what you will about Ottawa and Washington. They have provided stiff tests, no question, and have played hard throughout. But, at the end of the day, they still are the No. 8 and No. 7 seeds, respectively. That caliber of team shouldn’t be imposing its will on a No. 1 seed. Ottawa did, to a certain extent. And Washington has taken it a step further.

The Great Eight

In a postseason where Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin bowed out in Round 1, and Claude Giroux hit the skids earlier this week, Ovechkin, the biggest star left, has made the most of his stage. The point total (9) is modest compared to say, a Giroux (17), but Ovechkin has been more than a scorer against the Bruins and Rangers.

The winger has 54 hits, 48 shots on goal and 13 blocks. He's still stuck at minus-1 for the postseason across his 13 games, but has one game-winning goal and two power-play tallies.

New York is at home, has more depth, and perhaps more motivation. But without question, the Capitals have the best player in the series, and if you believe in the age-old sports cliché that says “big players make big plays in big games,” something great from No. 8 may be in store here.

Net work

Tough to find a weakness in net on either end. Henrik Lundqvist has been the Rangers' best player. He has a 1.73 goals-against average, and if he didn't stand tall in the third period of Game 5 -- allowing for the Rangers' miracle rally to happen in a 3-2 overtime win -- this series would already be over.

Braden Holtby isn't far behind with a 1.95 goals-against and for all intents and purposes, he pitched a shutout in Game 6 before the Rangers used a few deflections to post a goal late in their 2-1 loss. Holtby, a rookie, has a .930 save percentage and has truly been the darling of the postseason.

No matter what happens in New York over the weekend, it appears Washington has settled its shaky goaltending situation moving forward - he’s only 22.

History

The Capitals are winless in their previous four attempts this postseason to post consecutive victories. But Washington has won seven of the last eight Saturday games. The Rangers are just 4-9 in their last 13 Round 2 games. The over has yet to hit in this series (0-3-3).

Armadillo's Write-Up

Saturday, May 12

76ers @ Celtics-- Teams met three times in 32 days in March/April, and home side won all three games, with none of three decided by less than 13 points. Both teams just won a series in six games, despite not having home court advantage; Celtics' last two games were decided by total of 4 points. In Philly's last four games, neither team scored 90 points. Sixers are only fifth #8 seed to advance in playoffs- they took advantage of crippled Chicago team. Philly lost 103-79 in only visit here this year.

Nuggets @ Lakers (3-3)-- Denver wants to run, eliminating an advantage Lakers have with Bynum underneath; Bynum was 4-11 in Game 6, Pau Gasol 1-10 and both were called out by both Laker coaches (Brown and Kobe). Farther the ball is shot from the basket, the better for Nuggets. In three series wins, Lakers took 17-15-17 treys; in two losses, 25-24-14. Weird thing about this series is road team took more foul shots in all six games. Denver scored 99-102-113 in its three wins, 88-100-88 in losses. Saturday is George Karl's 61st birthday.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Philadelphia 76ers at Boston Celtics (-5, 170.5)

SERIES ODDS TO WIN: 76ers +175, Celtics -250

THE STORY: The Philadelphia 76ers are participating in the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs for the first time in nine years as they open play against the division-rival Celtics in Boston on Saturday. Eighth-seeded Philadelphia defeated the injury-depleted Chicago Bulls in six games in the opening round while fifth-seeded Boston ousted the Atlanta Hawks in six games. The Celtics are in the second round for the fifth straight season. The 76ers won two of three regular-season meetings.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, TNT

ABOUT THE 76ERS: Philadelphia had lost five consecutive playoff series before toppling the Bulls. Guard Andre Iguodala hit two free throws with 2.2 seconds left in Thursday’s series-clinching 79-78 victory. The 76ers won the finale despite being outrebounded 56-33 and will need to perform better in that area to upset the Celtics. Center Spencer Hawes averaged 15.5 points and 10.3 rebounds over the last four games of the Chicago series while point guard Jure Holiday averaged a team-best 18.2 points against the Bulls. Top reserve Lou Williams finished second in NBA Sixth Man of the Year alloting announced Thursday.

ABOUT THE CELTICS: Forwards Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett and point guard Rajon Rondo took turns being stars in the series against Atlanta. Pierce was strong early in the series before injuring his left knee, Rondo had a triple-double in Game 3 and Garnett hit the go-ahead basket in the clinching game to cap off a performance in which he had 28 points, 14 rebounds and five blocked shots. Guard Ray Allen has been inconsistent while battling an ankle injury and fellow backcourt mate Avery Bradley (shoulder) also is laboring. Rondo averaged 13.3 points in the three regular-season meetings against Philadelphia.

TRENDS:
- 76ers are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog.
- Celtics are 11-4-1 ATS in their last 16 home games.
- 76ers are 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings.

BUZZER BEATERS:

1. Boston and Philadelphia last met in the postseason in 2002 when the Celtics won the best-of-five first-round series 3-2.

2. Celtics coach Doc Rivers recorded his 50th postseason win on Thursday, third-most in franchise history behind Red Auerbach (90) and K.C. Jones (65).

3. Iguodala had 11 steals and just four turnovers in the six-game series with Chicago.

Denver Nuggets at Los Angeles Lakers (-6, 196.5)

THE STORY: It was hard to tell what bothered Kobe Bryant more – his stomach bug or the nauseating performance put forth by his teammates in the Los Angeles Lakers' lopsided Game 6 loss at Denver on Thursday night. The Lakers will hope to avoid becoming the ninth team in NBA history to blow a 3-1 series lead when they host the resurgent Nuggets in Game 7 Saturday night. Starting forward Metta World Peace returns for Los Angeles after serving a seven-game suspension.

TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, TNT, FSW

ABOUT THE NUGGETS: A different player seems to step up for Denver in each game, and speedy point guard Ty Lawson did the honors Thursday. Although he had back-to-back 25-point games earlier in the series, Lawson has struggled with his shot – particularly from long range. Getting desperate after going 2 of 16 from behind the arc in the first five games of the series, Lawson flew in his personal shooting coach before Game 6. The result was a playoff career-high 32 points that included making five of six 3-pointers in Denver's wire-to-wire rout. Rookie Kenneth Faried had his third double-double and is averaging 10 rebounds in the series against the Lakers’ towering front line.

ABOUT THE LAKERS: Los Angeles figured to have an enormous advantage inside with 7-footers Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol. Bynum had two huge games to help the Lakers to a 2-0 series lead, but the team's twin towers experienced a remarkable disappearing act in the thin air of Denver. Bynum's stat line (11 points, 16 rebounds) suggests a decent performance, but he and Gasol combined for a mere five points in the first half Thursday. Gasol scored a season-low three points in Game 6 and has seen his point production drop in four straight games. Bryant didn't mince words when asked if his teammates matched his heart in Game 6. ''No, of course they didn't,'' he said.

TRENDS:
- Nuggets are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games overall.
- Lakers are 4-13 ATS in their last 17 home games.
- Under is 22-8 in the last 30 meetings.

BUZZER BEATERS:

1. The Lakers are 42-1 all-time when taking a 2-0 lead in a best-of-seven series – the only loss coming in 1969 vs. Boston. Los Angeles is the last team to blow a 3-1 lead, falling to Phoenix in 2006.

2. The Nuggets, losers in the first round of the playoffs in seven of the past eight seasons, have advanced to a Game 7 for the first time since 1994.

3. World Peace, who hasn't played since April 22, had 14 points and eight rebounds in a 103-97 win over Denver on April 13.

Saturday's streaking and slumping starting pitchers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Streaking

Ricky Nolasco, Miami Marlins (4-0, 2.72 ERA)

Nolasco held the Padres to two runs on five hits over seven innings to tie Dontrelle Willis for the franchise lead in victories with 68. Nolasco has worked at least seven innings in each of his last three starts and walked just a single better in each.

Brandon Beachy, Atlanta Braves (3-1, 1.62 ERA)

Beachy has been nothing short of dominant this season. He was cruising along before stumbling a bit in the seventh inning in a 7-2 win over Colorado. He gave up the two runs on four hits while also walking three. Beachy’s sporting a tidy 0.95 WHIP in 39 innings so far this season heading into a tough date with the Cardinals in St. Louis.

Slumping

Chris Volstad, Chicago Cubs (0-4, 6.55 ERA)

Volstad continues to get burned by one bad inning in his starts. In his last trip to the hill, he was looking good until he gave up three runs in the second inning – two of which came on a two-run double from pitcher Chris Capuano. Volstad hasn’t won since July 10 of last year and is working on a 6.88 ERA in his last three.

Luke Hochevar, Kansas City Royals (2-3, 9.00 ERA)

Hochevar couldn’t get out of the third inning against the Yankees, allowing seven hits and seven earned runs before getting the hook. He has now allowed at least seven runs in three of his first six starts and owns a fat 1.82 WHIP through 28 innings of work.

MLB Top 3: Worst runline bets in baseball
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There’s more than one way to lose money betting on baseball. If you’ve been taking a hit wagering on moneylines and totals, you may also want to steer clear of these runline money pits, who can’t seem to cover baseball’s version of the spread.

Milwaukee Brewers (11-20 vs. runline/-10.73 units)

The Brewers’ current funk isn’t just flipping pockets inside-out for moneyline bettors. Runline bettors have taken an even bigger loss wagering on Milwaukee against the spread this season. The Brew Crew are mired in a 2-7 slide heading into the weekend and quickly need to find the “on” switch for their offense.

Milwaukee is averaging 1.6 runs over those five losses but has totaled 14 runs in the two wins. Sure, not having Prince Fielder in the middle of the order hurts, but demoted lead-off hitter Rickie Weeks is ice cold and CF Corey Hart is not existent. Those problems are compounded when faced with a 1.5-run spread.

San Diego Padres (13-19 vs. runline/-10.70 units)

If you’re betting the Padres – money or runline – you need a slap in the face. San Diego hasn’t been able to fix its offensive issues for a few seasons now, averaging just 3.19 runs per game – 29th in the bigs, and is just 11-21 heading into Friday’s road series in Philadelphia.

The Padres’ one strength – pitching - has also taken a turn for the worse. Injuries have take down four starters and two relievers, leaving the club to scrounge for former major league arms and dig deep into the minor league bank. It also doesn’t help that San Diego, which is 2-7 away from Petco Park, hits the East Coast for the next five games.

Minnesota Twins (13-18 vs. runline/-10.20 units)

Heading into Thursday date with Toronto, the Twins have dropped 14 of their last 17 games and sit glued to the bottom of the American League Central at 8-23. Minnesota’s problems are so numerous, it’s tough to blame just one for all the red ink being handed to runline bettors.

Francisco Liriano was tossed to the bullpen after his 0-5 record and 9.45 ERA through six starts, first baseman Justin Morneau continues to sit with a sore surgically-repaired wrist, and the front office just cleaned house, sending down some and designating others for assignment. The Twins meet the Jays at the wrong time. Toronto won five of six meetings with Minnesota last season, outscoring it 44-14 in those contests, and has won 25 of their last 32 meetings.

Other runline losers:

Los Angeles Angels (-8.51 runline units)
Boston Red Sox (-8.23 runline units)
Detroit Tigers (-7.39 runline units)
