What could have been a HUGE days with the Expos and 0(zero)AKLAND needing to come though turned into a sub basement 3-6 dragging a nice weekly total down to 22-18 so far:
FOR 2NITE THEN: Laying the major Lumberjack wood!
Going to practice what I preached in last nights email....go HOT vs COLD until the situation changes:
Jumped early Yanks GM#1Yanks-300 and Yanks -1.5@-150
TONIGHT:
PHILLY -156 >>Love the pitching matchup
Hentgen has been shuffled between the bullpen and the starting rotation this season, but has taken over the role as No. 2 starter in place of struggling left-hander Omar Daal. The right-hander, who has lost four straight starts, made his last start June 9, allowing four runs and 10 hits over seven innings of a 4-0 loss to the Chicago Cubs. Hentgen hasn't fared well against the Phillies in his career, going 0-4 with 5.79 ERA.
Myers (6-6, 3.38 ERA). Opponents are hitting just .214 and have an on-base percentage of .303 against Myers, who has struck out 67 and walked 39 over 96 innings this season.
ROYALS +105 >>KC is on fire and Affeldt has great stuff...Stl just can't solve this team.
ARZ -200 >>No explanation necessary. Webb a gem...then there's Detroit.
ANGELS -112 >>Anaheim has turned the corner back to moving runners into scoring position and Ishi has a problem giving up walks PLUS the Dodgers can't score. Ishi has had BIG problems vs the Angels:
The Dodgers haven't scored more than three runs in any of their last 10 losses.
Ishi has struggled against Anaheim during his career, going 0-2 with a 10.80 ERA in two starts.
Appier has alternated quality starts with poor ones in his last five games. He gave up one run in five innings to beat Los Angeles 6-3 on Sunday. The right-hander is 2-1 with a 3.51 ERA in four career starts against the Dodgers.
ATL/TB (U)9 Runs >> Reynolds boasts a perfect 3-0 mark with a 4.28 ERA in seven road starts this year. Zambrano has allowed just three runs and eight hits over 22 innings in posting a 2-0 mark in his last three outings. The right-hander outdueled Roger Clemens on Monday, yielding two runs and five hits over seven innings in a 4-2 victory over the New York Yankees. Zambrano has allowed two runs or fewer in each of his last six starts. He has tossed 2 1-3 innings of scoreless relief in two career appearances against the Braves.
SEATT -220 >>They should sweep SD. Win number two tonight.
ONE PLAY AGAINST THE HOT vs NOT system tonight is:
TWINS -200
TWINS/MIL (O)10 >> BURBA for Mil making his first start coming up from the Indianapolis Indians where his ERA there was FIVE and half RUNS.
Rogers is 2-1 with a 6.50 ERA over his last three starts. The veteran left-hander allowed three runs and seven hits over five innings of Sunday's 8-3 win over Milwaukee, continuing his domination of the Brewers in his career. In 33 career appearances against Milwaukee, including 14 starts, Rogers is 10-5 with a 3.78 ERA with two complete games, including a shutout, and one save.
