For line moves we are going thru baseball for money lines, totals and series wagering along with some CFL action. Take a minute to review all the betting trends, our free picks and predictions (229-185-3 run, 39-28-1 of late) to see what we are thinking today. See you back here next week.
MLB – (955) CHIC. CUBS at (956) CINCINNATI 7:10 ET WGN (Local), FSOH (side and total)
With last place Cincinnati having won four in a row and seven of nine, enough bettors are giving them a chance in Game 2 of their series with the Cubs. The Reds have been lowered from +145 to +130 and the total has also dipped from 9 to 8.5. This might not be the best decision on the side play with Jose Quintana (6-5, 4.06 ERA) having a 2.70 ERA versus Cincy and Chicago 3-0 against them. Though Cincinnati's Luis Castillo (4-8) has thrown well twice against the Cubs, his velocity is down and his ERA is 5.77 compared to last year's 3.12. Look for the Cubs to bounce back from last night's loss and Quintana is 18-6 UNDER in last 24 road starts.
Betting Trend - 88% backing Chicago, 56% on Under
Doug's VPID Take - Chicago wins, Play Under
MLB – (961) MIAMI at (962) COLORADO 8:40 ET FSFL, ATT-RM
With both starting pitchers in this NL contest having ERA's approaching six and Miami and Colorado having the two worst bullpens in the league, the total slipping from 11.5 to 11 is a head-scratcher. The Marlins are 21-8 OVER in road games after two straight games with no home runs and the Rockies are 16-3 OVER this month.
Betting Trend - 67% backing Over
Doug's VPID Take - Play Over
MLB – (967) SEATTLE at (968) BOSTON 7:10 ET RTMW, NESN
After playing so well all season, Seattle is in the midst of a Boston/Yankees/Boston three-pack of series and has lost four in a row. Not sure if it would be comforting for the Mariners, but sportsbooks have dropped them from +145 to +130 or lower at Fenway. The pitching battle is a rematch from last Sunday and it is out of bizzaro-world in terms of quality, with Wade LeBlanc (3-0, 2.63) facing Steven Wright (2-1, 1.23). Both were outstanding in Seattle's 1-0 shutout and are in the best stretch of their ordinary careers. I'll lean with the M's being 9-0 after a one-run loss.
Betting Trend - 61% backing Boston
Doug's VPID Take - Lean Seattle
