| MLB | Aug 06 Boston Red Sox vs. New York Yankees | Total 10 ov+102 at 5DIMES | > 8h. |
| Craig's plays have been hot over the past week going 7-2 with his top plays! Today Craig has two 5 star plays: Early Riser total of Week and Bankroll Builder Late Play. Over 10 BOS/NYY: Love the over today as both Boston and New York can hit the HR with the best of them. This new ballpark of the NYY is a magnet when it comes to Homeruns. Today BOS turns to Smoltz on the mound who has not been good since arriving midseason. Even worse news for BOS fans he has given up 6 HR's over last 3 games. On the other side the NYY turn to Chamberlin who has been great lately, but will be on a pitch count. Boston has very professional hitters who will make Joba throw strikes and he will only make it 5 innings allowing 3 runs. Once BOS gets to the bullpen that is when they can start the fireworks. This one will be a HR contest and easily get over 10 runs. EASY OVER 10 is the free play for today | ||
| MLB | Aug 06 LAA Angels vs. Chicago White Sox | LAA Angels +141 at 5DIMES | > 3h. |
7-0 with 7* Titans this week after a perfect 3-0 sweep last night with Phils, Cleveland, and +130 dog MLW. The combined score of these games was an amazing 19-2! Join Ryan for his COMPLETE card. First card goes off early so join him now for another 7* Titan winner. Ai Simulator 3* graded play on Anaheim as they face the CWS set to start at 2:05 EST. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 46-19 making 29.1 units since 2003 for 71% winners with the average play a +104.6 dog. Play on any team that is a hot hitting team batting .300 or better over their last 15 games and starting a pitcher who was hit for 5+ runs in his last 2 outings. Certainly the Anaheim offense has hidden a real starting pitching weakness for Anaheim. That will happen again today, but at some point in the near future their pitching problems will be evident and games will be tougher to win. The Angels are 13-3 (+10.0 Units) against the money line in road games versus poor fielding teams averaging 0.75+ errors/game over the last 2 seasons. The CWS are just 3-11 (-10.1 Units) against the money line vs. a starting pitcher whose gives up 1 or more HR's/start this season. The CWS rank 5th worst in MLB with 79 errors this season. Washington is worst with 98 errors. By comparison Toronto ranks best with just 41 errors made in 107 games played. A strong offense, like Anaheim, will make a poor fielding team pay a big price when those errors do occur. Anaheim starter Santana has struggled big time during the season, but most of those struggles have occurred in home starts. He has allowed a 255 BA and 4.28 ERA in road games. CWS starter Danks has allowed 15 ER in his past 4 starts (4,4,3,4) and 24 hits spanning 23.2 IP. He does rank 9th in the AL in BA allowed at 241, but the fatigue factor is quite evident allowing more hits than innings pitched and having thrown a ton of pitches. He has thrown a minimum of 97 pitches in his last 13 starts! Take Anaheim. | ||
| MLB | Aug 06 Arizona D-Backs vs. Pittsburgh Pirates | Arizona D-Backs -1½+135 at 5DIMES | > 8h. |
| Take the Arizona Diamondbacks on the Moneyline, This pick falls into one of my top MLB systems and the Diamondbacks are 11-2 in their last 13 games when playing against a team with a losing record in the second half of the season. Max Scherzer (6-6, 3.80) owned the Pirates in his only outing against them this season allowing 5 hits over 7 innings while striking out 8 batters and allowing no earned runs. I look for Scherzer to have another solid outing against the Pirates Thursday night and the Diamondbacks are 6-1 in their last 7 games as a road favorite. The Pirates are hitting just .227 as a team over their last 7 games while their opponents are hitting .293 against them over those games and the Diamondbacks are a perfect 7-0 in their last 7 games against a right hand starter. Take the Arizona Diamondbacks as my MLB Free Play for Thursday night. Vernon Croy crushes the books again Thursday night with his 5* MLB NL Game of the Month that is backed by a 100% perfect angle so make sure you get on it now! | ||
| MLB | Aug 06 Baltimore Orioles vs. Detroit Tigers | Baltimore Orioles +125 at SPBOOK | > 2h. |
| The Baltimore starter David Hernandez enters the game in very good form off of his last 3 starts posting a stellar 2.08 ERA in that span. The Detroit starter Rick Porcello has been shaky over his last 4 starts posting a lofty 6.11 ERA. In 9 starts at home this season Porcello has not shown the best of form posting a 5.13 ERA and 1.54 WHIP. In spite of their win yesterday the Tigers are just 2-7 in the last 9 games versus AL East opponents. Play on the Baltimore Orioles as an underdog selection. | ||
| MLB | Aug 06 Florida Marlins vs. Washington Nationals | Florida Marlins -145 at SPBOOK | > 1h. |
| Take Marlins -135 1 Dime Free Play (1-5scale) My lowest ranking on a free pick is a 1 dimer I still consider this a strong play considering I have been on the Marlins Game 1 on the run line and then money line last night for my POD both losers! It's been a rough couple of days but I was expecting this. Don't think for one minute that I let an 11 game POD streak go to my head. I'm smarter than that and I know in this business you are only as good as your last win. Clearly I'm not chasing or this would be another POD. Again the hole I thought Nick Johnson would leave in this lineup is not what I thought, but I still think this young team (Nats) will run into issues with a quality starter. Alright let's break it down on Thursday with a frustrating pitcher Chris Volstad and the reason why this is a premium play. Volstad has solid stuff he can strike hitters out, but struggles with his command. If you don't believe me in two starts against the Nationals this year he has 12 K's in 9.1 IP. Just shows you the capability he has to dominate this Nats lineup, but in those 2 starts he had 9 BB, and only 8 H, but that's 17 base runners he handed out yet he only gave up 4ER. Just imagine if he has command of his fastball. Which he has had in his last start with just 1 BB. In fact in 4 of his last 6 games he's given up 1BB or less, but in between were two 4BB performances and that's what worries me about him and the reason this is not a premium selection. The Marlins are 12-5 in Volstad's last 17 road starts. On the other side of the ball we have Craig Stammen who really has not impressed me this year. The Marlins collectively are 7-20 and Hanley Ramirez has 2 hits. Ramirez has been solid during day play and the Marlins actually score more runs per game during the day than they do at night. It's not like they don't have a plan for Stammen as I said they faced him before and they were successful. So let's get some of the money back that we lost on the Marlins the last 2 days which was 6 units. | ||
