Got of to a good start yesterday playing all four dogs, going 2-2 (+1.88 units). These are my plays for Tuesday.........
5 STAR: Houston (+$105) OVER NEW YORK
(Tim Redding vs. David Cone)
After a good start to the season, Cone has not faired well in his last two starts allowing 10 earned runs in 9 innings pitched. I look for the Astros to get to him today as well. Redding has one start against the Mets last season. He did not figure in the decision but allowed only one earned run in 4 and 2/3 innings pitched.
3 STAR: Tampa Bay (+$125) OVER Toronto
(Joe Kennedy vs. Pete Walker)
Joe Kennedy has had success against the Blue Jays, he is 4-1 when starting against Toronto with an ERA of 3.47. Pete Walker is just 1-2 against the Devil Rays with an ERA of 5.50. I like the Devil Rays to get the win here.
3 STAR: Minnesota (+$125) OVER KANSAS CITY
(Kenny Rogers vs. Runelvys Hernandez)
I like the Twins to bounce back here against the Royals after being swept at home by the Yankees. Kenny Rogers has pitched very well this season and he has had success against the Royals in the past. Rogers is 5-2 against Kansas City with an ERA of 2.94 since 1997. Hernandez has been great, but the Twins beat him in his only career start against Minnesota last season, where he allowed 4 runs and 7 hits in 5 innings. The Twins have owned this series, winning 14 of the last 19 games at Kansas City the last three seasons.
2 STAR: OAKLAND (-$350) OVER Detroit
(Tim Hudson vs.Adam Benero)
A high price here, so I would parlay this with any of the other picks to create some value if you don't want to lay this much wood. Tim Hudson is 7-2 when starting against Detroit with an ERA of 3.43. Hudson is also 20-4 verssu an AL team with a team batting average of .260 or worse over the last 3 seasons. Enough said.
2 STAR: TEXAS (+$210) OVER Boston
(Chan Ho Park vs. Pedro Martinez)
Going to take a shot here with the big home dog. American League road favorites with a money line of -200 or more that are a very good offensive team, scoring 5.7 or more runs per game on the season, after a game where they allowed 8 runs or more
are only 4-14 over the last 5 seasons.
* ALL LISTED PITCHERS MUST START OR THE PLAY IS NO ACTION
Good luck,
