    Who's Hot - NL Edition

    July 30, 2014

    The trading deadline is just about here, and the teams that are the hottest in the National League are the ones who really should be making the moves at this point. Though each of the five best money teams in the game are all in the American League, we'll be taking a look at the top teams in the NL for bettors in pro baseball betting action.

    Miami Marlins (53-53, +$540) – The Fish are still living just a bit on what they did at the outset of this season at home. All of their profits are from games played at Marlins Park, and their +$547 mark here at home is a fraction of what they were up when they started off like gangbusters in South Beach. That being said, this young pitching staff really is coming together, and it's only going to get better when left-handed pitcher Andrew Heaney really figures it out and is set to become the stud that we know he can be. All of these prospects that have been put together in trades over the years are finally coming together, and though this probably isn't the year the Marlins will make the playoffs, they can legitimately finish right here as a .500 team with a solid last two months of the season.

    Pittsburgh Pirates (57-49, +$513) – The Bucs are starting to get sneaky at the trade deadline, and we wonder if they are ultimately going to end up making a big move that could change the course of how the National League playoff race ends up looking. When outfielder Starling Marte and right-handed pitcher Gerrit Cole both come back from the disable list, this really might end up being the best team in the NL, and that's saying something, especially in the crowded NL Central. The reason why the Pirates are going to be a decent bet all year long is because they don't have any of those "name pitchers" who are always the big time favorites every time they get on the bump. Pittsburgh should continue to trend upwards, and we would be surprised if it wasn't one of the best five teams in baseball from a betting perspective at season's end.

    Milwaukee Brewers (59-49, +$447) – The Brewers were once the best money team in the league, and though they have had a bit of a plight, they have still hung in there and would be in the playoffs if they started today. It's a heck of an accomplishment for a club with no really bona fide ace pitchers and bats that have generally overachieved as we see it. Our concern? The team has scored just two runs in its last three games combined, and it has three road games against the Cardinals coming up here over the weekend. There is a real chance that the schedule is going to end up getting the best of this team by October, and that will probably see the Brewers left out of the postseason dance when it's all said and done with.

      August Pitchers Report

      July 31, 2014


      With the MLB trade deadline having closed and the NFL preseason whetting our pigskin appetite, the month of August sets the table for the stretch run of the baseball season. Which pitchers can we count on to satisfy our tastes, and which ones figure to turn our stomach? Take a look below.

      Listed below are hurlers that have enjoyed a two-to-one or better success ratio in team starts the last three seasons during the month of August. On the flip side, we’ve also listed pitchers that struggle in August team starts, winning 33% percent or less of their efforts. To qualify pitchers must have made a minimum of 10 starts, with at least one start each August over the last three years. *Designates this pitcher appeared on the list last season.

      I’ll be back next month with September’s Good Month Pitchers. Until then, enjoy the hot August nights.

      GOOD MONTH PITCHERS

      Buehrle, Mark (11-5)

      After a phenomenal start, the Toronto left-hander has returned to career norms, but if the Blue Jays are to make the postseason, Buehrle will have to play a large role. Toronto overall has flourished with the Missouri native on the mound with a 15-7 overall record and a sharp 10-3 when he’s been the favorite.

      *Chen, Bruce (12-6)

      Chen has only been back in the Kansas City rotations since the end of June and frankly has not been effective. Because the Royals offense runs cold and warm, they are dependent on their starters like Chen to keep them in games. They will need the Chen of August’s past to stay in wild card contention.

      *Gallardo, Yovani (12-1)

      The Brewers ace has not put up the kind of numbers Milwaukee fans have come to expect. In his last 11 starts he’s just 3-2, but Gallardo has lowered his ERA just over a run, which shows progress. The Brew Crew does not figure to win the division without one of their key elements and they need him to own this month like in the past.

      Greinke, Zack (13-4)

      Manager Don Mattingly is receiving just what he needs from his No. 2 pitcher... consistency. What makes Greinke unique is his approach since he has an array of pitches he can throw for strikes. On days maybe when the fastball lacks the usual juice or location is an issue, he can turn to various breaking pitches to get batters out and keep changing speeds to keep them off-balance.

      Hamels, Cole (11-4)

      After a slow start coming back from injury, Hamels has been brilliant with a sparking 1.77 ERA in his last 10 starts. He’s averaging better than a strikeout an inning and on the season and has a 1.70 ERA on the road, doing his best on aging team that will be rebuilding go forward.

      Lohse, Kyle (11-4)

      Though not the official ace of the Brewers, he’s pitched like one all season. The Crew is 15-7 when Lohse takes the ball and they are a gritty 5-2 as underdogs. Milwaukee’s right-hander is bulldog on the road, as he and his teammates are 9-4 away from Miller Park.

      Minor, Mike (10-5)

      To say this has not been a good season for Minor is an understatement, as his ERA has risen by 3.5 runs in his last 10 starts and the left-hander has surrendered a head-shaking .393 batting average against lefties no less. Despite Atlanta averaging just 3.9 runs a game, they have scored a full run more in Minor’s 16 outings, which why they are .500 when he’s pitched. It’s hard to imagine a quick about face.

      *Santana, Ervin (12-5)

      This turned out to be a great pickup for Atlanta after suffering heavy losses to its starting staff in the spring. Santana does not overpower opposing hitters, but he’s really kept right-handed batters off balance as they are hitting only .206 against. Santana has always pitched better at home than on the road and be sure to play him this month at Turner Field.

      *Scherzer, Max (13-4)

      Some baseball pundits wondered if Scherzer found lightning in a bottle last season in winning the Cy Young, but he’s come right back with another solid campaign. Among his strengths is he doesn’t beat himself and has a 4-to-1 strikeout to walk ratio. He’s also known for his relentless determination, making him tough to bet against.

      *Shields, James (13-4)

      Shields is a true professional and David Price of Tampa Bay credits him for setting the standard for hard work and enhancing his career. The righty might not have the lowest ERA or flashiest numbers, yet he will more often than not hold the opposition to one less run than his team scores, which piles up the W’s.

      BAD MONTH PITCHERS

      Hernandez, Roberto (4-8)

      Since winning 19 games in 2007, the pitcher formerly known as Fausto Carmona is 44-72, had two stints in the minors and is primarily a fifth starter trying to hold on to a big league paycheck (Maybe the Cubs could use him). Whatever name he signs on the back of his paycheck these days is definite play against material here.

      *Correia, Kevin (2-10)

      Though the Twins soft-tossing starter had a good stretch over seven starts beginning on June 10, the fact of the matter is 5-13 with an ERA of 5.06 this season. (As of 7-31-14) Since this is the fourth different team he’s been a starting pitcher for since 2008, don’t expect any real improvement this month.

      Hellickson, Jeremy (5-11)

      Hellickson began the season on the disabled list due to right elbow surgery and has spent most of the season at Double and Triple-A, trying to work his way back to the big club. He made two spot starts in July and it is not guaranteed he will do anything more than that in August.

      Jimenez, Ubaldo (5-12)

      Jimenez last pitched for Baltimore on July 5th after suffering a right ankle sprain. He’s scheduled to make two rehab starts in the first part of August before returning to the Orioles. However, the Birds have been playing very good baseball without him and his 3-8 record and 4.52 ERA, thus you have to wonder if he moves back into Buck Showalter’s rotation.

      *Maholm, Paul (3-8)

      Strictly a reliever and spot starter for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who has an ERA of almost five and just 34 punch-outs to go along with 27 walks.

          Friday's Tip Sheet

          August 1, 2014

          Mariners at Orioles – 7:05 PM EST

          Probable Pitchers:
          SEA: Elias (8-8, 4.31 ERA)
          BAL: Chen (11-3, 3.92 ERA)

          Previous series recap: The Orioles failed to pull off the sweep over the Angels after last night’s 1-0 loss in 13 innings. However, Baltimore captured the first two games by one runs each as a home underdog, while posting a 4-2 record this season against Los Angeles. Seattle rallied late to top Cleveland on Thursday, 6-5 to cash as +130 ‘dogs to take two of three from the Indians.

          What to watch for: Last night’s high-scoring affair in Cleveland snapped a nine-game ‘under’ streak for the Mariners, which included four ‘unders’ in last weekend’s home set against the Orioles. Chen tossed eight scoreless innings in the series opener at Safeco Field last Thursday, 4-0 as +135 underdogs. The Orioles have won six of their past seven home series openers, while the M’s are 1-8 in their previous nine games off a victory.

          Angels at Rays – 7:10 PM EST

          Probable Pitchers:
          LAA: Shoemaker (8-3, 4.13 ERA)
          TB: Hellickson (0-0, 1.00 ERA)

          Previous series recap: The Angels scored just one run in their series finale at Baltimore on Thursday, but that was enough in a 13-inning triumph to avoid a three-game sweep. The Rays won two of three against the Brewers at home, but lost the series finale, 5-0 in David Price’s final start with Tampa Bay before he was dealt to Detroit on Thursday.

          What to watch for: Tampa Bay has struggled after getting shut out this season, posting a 4-8 record in this situation, while the Rays are currently riding a five-game ‘under’ streak. The Angels won three of four home matchups with the Rays back in May, which included an incredible late rally in the series opener. Los Angeles is 6-2 in Shoemaker’s last eight starts, but the Halos own a 2-7 record in their previous nine road series openers.

          Brewers at Cardinals – 8:15 PM EST

          Probable Pitchers:
          MIL: Peralta (12-6, 3.56 ERA)
          STL: Wainwright (13-5, 1.92 ERA)

          Previous series recap: The Brewers’ offense didn’t do much at Tropicana Field, scoring two runs in the first losses to the Rays. Milwaukee avoided the sweep with an impressive 5-0 victory on Wednesday to cash as +155 underdogs, while snapping a three-game skid. The Cardinals return home off a win at San Diego on Thursday, but St. Louis dropped two of three games in that series to finish its road trip at 3-3.

          What to watch for: The road team is 6-3 through the first nine meetings this season between these division rivals, while each of the past six matchups have finished ‘over’ the total. The Cardinals are 4-0 in Wainwright’s last four starts against the Brewers since 2012, including a 10-2 victory at Miller Park last month. Milwaukee owns an 8-2 record in Peralta’s past 10 starts since the beginning of June, which includes a 4-1 record on the highway.

          Royals at Athletics – 9:35 PM EST

          Probable Pitchers:
          KC: Guthrie (6-9, 4.70 ERA)
          OAK: Gray (12-3, 2.65 ERA)

          Previous series recap: The Royals rallied for two victories over the Twins the last two days to finish their homestand at 5-2. Oakland returns to the Bay Area after splitting six games in the state of Texas, but lost two of three to Houston. The final four contests of Oakland’s road trip went ‘over’ the total, while the A’s have scored at least five runs in each of their last seven wins.

          What to watch for: This is the first meeting between these teams this season, as the A’s won five of six matchups in 2013, including a three-game home sweep last May. The Royals are riding a five-game ‘under’ streak on the road, while Kansas City owns a 6-4 road record against AL West competition this season. Oakland owns a 7-0 record in Gray’s last seven starts, while seven of its eight home wins with the right-hander taking the mound have been decided by at least two runs.

          Braves at Padres – 10:10 PM EST

          Probable Pitchers:
          ATL: Minor (5-6, 4.23 ERA)
          SD: Stults (3-13, 5.22 ERA)

          Previous series recap: The Braves’ offense dried up in a three-game sweep at the hand of the Dodgers, scoring just seven runs. Atlanta faced Cy Young winners Zack Greinke and Clayton Kershaw in the final two losses, as the Braves dropped to 3-7 in their last 10 road contests. The Padres fell short of pulling off a sweep of the Cardinals after Thursday’s 6-2 defeat to St. Louis.

          What to watch for: San Diego has compiled a 9-4 record in the past 13 games at Petco Park, including three straight wins in home series openers. The Braves and Padres met last week at Turner Field as Atlanta took the final three contests after losing the series opener. Last season, San Diego pulled off a three-game home sweep of Atlanta with all three wins coming in the underdog role.

            Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

            -- Cliff Lee hurt his elbow, is probably done for the year; Phillies did nothing to start over on trade deadline day; not sure what their plan is, if they have one.

            -- Braves lost 2-1 in LA, have now lost their last seven one-run games.

            -- Cleveland scored in first inning Thursday, first time in their last 18 games.

            -- When big league teams have bases loaded with none out, they score 85% of time.

            -- In parts of the south, school starts next week. Oy.

            -- A's are still giving away 10,000 Yoenis Cespedes t-shirts Saturday; guess they are collectors' items now.


            **********

            Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Things to ponder with weekend here.......

            13) I was fired up when the A's got Jeff Samardzija last month; wrote a long list in this space, then went to Denny's for breakfast-- at 5:30am, with no sleep. When I was awakened by a flurry of texts Thursday morning, having just come back from Las Vegas the night before,. I was stunned by the Lester/Cespedes trade. Still am.

            12) As a longtime A's fan, I know any player who is any good will leave after a few years, but usually they leave on their own, not in the middle of a pennant race. You trade your cleanup hitter for an ace pitcher, it tells me one thing-- they're building a team that can win a short series. Ace pitchers win short series (see J Verlander).

            11) So now the A's lack depth in outfield, are loaded on the mound- they brought Sam Fuld in to plug the Crisp/Gentry injury gap in CF, they'll platoon Gomes with Vogt or Reddick in the outfield and they'll probably need to score less since they figure to give up fewer runs. Could still use an upgrade at second base, but I have all the faith in the world in Billy Beane, so while I am stunned, I am not stressed.

            10) Word late Thursday was that the A's were going to trade Cespedes after this season anyway, since he is a free agent after 2015. Oakland made the playoffs both years he was on the team-- Cespedes will be missed, like so many others.

            9) Sonny Gray might get extra time between starts; A's figure to bring Drew Pomeranz up at some point to become a spot starter. At this rate, Gray is going to shatter his career high in innings pitched and teams are reluctant to let that happen, since that has been identified as a cause of arm injuries.

            8) Ton of activity Thursday; Austin Jackson got pulled off the field during an inning in Detroit, when the David Price trade was announced. Don't see that a lot.

            7) Lester/Lackey trades mean that I finally get my wish with Boston promoting Anthony Ranaudo to start on the mound Friday night. Still very odd seeing the Red Sox dump salary like they're the Rays or the Pirates.

            6) Giancarlo Stanton has eight first-inning homers, most in MLB; all eight have come at home in Miami, a lousy home run park.

            5) The "blocking home plate before you have the ball" rule has to go-- there was a total lack of common sense on an 8th inning call in Miami which cost the Marlins the winning runs in a 3-1 loss to Cincinnati. This is how bad the call was- it totally helped ny fantasy team, but it still made me mad, it made the sport look bad. They have to look at this immediately, if not sooner and make some changes.

            4) Indians are unveiling a statue of Jim Thome outside their stadium this week; was surprised by this. Think you need to be a Hall of Famer or win a World Series to get yourself a statue, but thats their business.

            3) Lost/found department at the New York City transit department has almost 30,000 cellphones waiting to be clained. Yikes.

            2) Best wishes to golfer Dustin Johnson, who is taking some time off to deal with a personal issue; Johnson is engaged to Wayne Gretzky's daughter.

            1) Memphis Grizzlies hired a mental endurance coach, which I'm assuming is a euphemism for a shrink. I'm guessing Lionel Hollins got a good laugh when he heard that one. Memphis fired him after he won 56 games two years ago-- maybe if they hadn't fired him, they wouldn't have to deal with this endurance hocus-pocus.

                      Orioles-Mariners meetings on hot Under streak

                      Heading into Friday's meeting at Oriole Park, the Seattle Mariners and Baltimore Orioles have kept scorelines under the closing total in five-straight ball games.

                      The streak dates back to the final meeting of the 2013 season, but the two clubs have cashed in for Under bettors in all four prior meetings this season. The teams concluded a four-game set at Safeco Field in late July.

                      Roenis Elias (8-12 O/U) gets the start for the Mariners, while the Orioles counter with Wei-Yin Chen (9-10 O/U).

                          MLB week-end betting cheat sheet: BoSox Blues
                          ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                          Here's a comprehensive look at betting notes for the weekend's major league action:

                          Dioner Dialed In

                          Dioner Navarro has been on fire for the Blue Jays (-110, 8.5) as of late. The surprise catcher has been one of the team's most productive hitters during their recent streak. Navarro has hits in five of the Blue Jays last six games including five RBIs as Toronto continues to hold the second AL Wild Card spot while chasing the Baltimore Orioles in the AL East.

                          Action Jackson

                          Austin Jackson left his last appearance with the Detroit Tigers midway through an eventual loss to the Chicago White Sox, but the new Seattle Mariners outfielder who was a part of the three team David Price deal will be bringing a needed red hot bat to the Pacific Northwest. Jackson had two hits and an RBI to stretch his hitting streak to five games.

                          BoSox Blues

                          Boston Red Sox fans can likely finally give up any hopes of turning around their season as defending World Series champions. After trading Jon Lester and John Lackey at the deadline, things are likely to go from bad to worse for Boston. Not a good sign for a team that is 2-8 in their last ten ball games

                          Pitching Notes

                          * AJ Burnett starts Saturday for the Phillies and has been providing consistent overs since July when on the mound. Since July 1, the Over is 5-1 when the former Blue Jays and Yankees pitcher gets his start.

                          * Marcus Stroman will start Sunday's series finale for the Blue Jays against the cellar dwelling Astros in the midst of a breakout streak of a quality starts for Toronto. The young potential ace has three straight wins on the mound, two of which were against the Red Sox including a no hitter bid at the Rogers Centre and a win at Fenway.

                          Hitting Notes

                          * Dodgers outfielder Yaisel Puig is doing his best to put himself in NL MVP consideration with the Dodgers and is red hot heading into August. The Cuban is 12-26 in his last five games at the plate, including two four hit games and hits in all but one appearance for Los Angeles.

                          * Oakland will have to find production to replace Yoenis Cespedes, the back to back Home Run Derby champion who was included in the Jon Lester trade with Boston. Cespedes currently has 17 home runs and 67 RBI's this season as one of the best bats for the A's so this weekend will be interesting for Oakland in terms of finding out where their new power will come from.

                          Totals Streak

                          Cincinnati Reds (1-9 O/U in last ten): Cold bats have been the issue for the Reds all season, so it should be no shock that they have quite the streak of Unders going during their recent struggles. Going 3-7 in their last ten, nine games have went under the total for the Reds in those ten ballgames.

                          Prop of the Day

                          Yu Darvish has been the lone bright spot for the Texas Rangers this season and is still very much an ace in the AL with a 10-6 record and a 2.90 ERA. A play on the Rangers F5 ML or the F5 Under could be a strong Sunday prop play with Darvish on the mound.

                          Injury Notes

                          * Boston outfielder Shane Victorino will miss Friday's game against the Mariners with a slight back injury that is causing him discomfort. Red Sox manager John Farrell will be hoping newly acquired outfielder Yoenis Cespedes will be able to replace him in the lineup.

                          * Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jay Bruce will be expected to return to baseball this weekend following a leave of absence to due to passing of a family member. Bruce is currently struggling along with the Reds, but will be looking to get back on track at the plate in a return to the game.

                            Cosart was 9-7 with a 4.41 ERA and 1.46 WHIP in 20 starts for the Astros this season.

                            The Marlins are currently -103 home faves.
