MLB | Sep 01, 2010 Chicago White Sox vs. Cleveland Indians |
Total 9½ un-110 at 5DIMES |
Lost $110.0 |
|
I'm playing on Chicago and Cleveland to finish UNDER the total. After a high-scoring (10-6) opener, the bats cooled off considerably yesterday. The White Sox won 4-3, taking a 2-0 lead in the series. The Indians have now seen the UNDER go 8-3 their last 11 games. They scored three or fewer runs in eight of those games. I expect another relatively low-scoring affair this afternoon. Garcia gets the call for the visitors and he was sharp last time out. Facing the powerful Yankees, he allowed just five hits and one earned run through seven complete innings. He walked only one batter for the second straight start. Note that Garcia has been a fair bit better in daytime starts over his career than he has been during the evening. He has a 3.79 career ERA during the day, compared to a 4.33 mark at night. Here, he'll face a Cleveland team which hits only .244 during the day, averaging a mere 4.0 runs. Garcia was also solid in his last start vs. Cleveland, allowing two earned runs in six innings. That was way back in 2006 though, so he'll have the advantage of many of the hitters not being too familiar with him. That will also be the case for Cleveland's Carlos Carrasco, who will be making his 2010 debut and who will have the advantage of never having faced Chicago. Admittedly, Carrasco had some trouble in limited starts last season. He's had a year in the minors though, where he was a solid 10-6 with a 3.65 ERA in 25 starts at Columbus. Carrasco has a lot of potential. He now knows what it takes up here and I expect him to be far more successful in his second stint. Cleveland manager Manny Acta said this of him: "He's probably got as high a ceiling as anybody we have starting here...' The Indians have seen the UNDER go 46-27 the last 73 times that they've been listed as home underdogs in the +125 to +150 range. I expect those stats to improve here. *8 |

MLB | Sep 01, 2010 Washington Nationals vs. Florida Marlins |
Florida Marlins -150 at 5DIMES |
Won $100 |
|
I'm playing on FLORIDA. Momentum can change quickly in baseball. The Nationals entered yesterday's game on a roll. The Marlins entered yesterday's game having lost three in a row. The Marlins managed to snap that skid with a 1-0 victory in the bottom of the 10th inning. I believe that it was the type of victory that can really build some positive momentum for the Marlins. At the same time, it was also a potentially deflating loss for the Nationals. Any time you lose a 1-0 game, its a bit tough to take. Yesterday's 1-0 loss was arguably tougher on the Nats than some though. They got an absolute gem from Zimmerman, in just his second start back from Tommy John Surgery. The Nats also squandered a chance to take the lead in the top of the 10th, only to see the Marlins win on a very close play at the plate in the bottom of the inning. In addition to playing at home and now having the momentum in their corner, the Marlins should have the pitching matchup in their favor. Volstad and Olsen just opposed each other on 8/11, at Washington. Olsen was horrible (7 runs in 1 2/3 innings!) that day and the Marlins won by a score of 9-1. In five starts vs. the Marlins, he has an awful 6.93 ERA and 1.702 WHIP. His teams were 1-4 in those games. Volstad, on the other hand, is now 3-0 vs. the Nationals this season. In this season's lone home start vs. the Nats, he tossed a complete game and allowed only four hits and one run. He had eight K's and only walked one batter. The Marlins won 7-1. Since Volstad beat Olsen on 8/11, the Marlins have gone 2-1 in Volstad's starts. During that time, the Nats have gone 0-3 in Olsen's starts, getting outscored by a combined 20-4 margin. With Olsen being a left-hander, it should be noted that the Marlins have enjoyed remarkable success vs. southpaw starters. In fact, they're 14-3 their last 17 vs. southpaws, improving to a highly profitable 79-55 (+29.7) the past few seasons. In addition to being excellent as home favorites in this range, the Marlins have dominated this series. Yesterday's victory brought the Marlins to 35-14 the last 49 meetings including 19-7 the last 26 here at Florida. Off yesterday's momentum-building victory, I expect them to continue that series domination here. *10 |

| Ben Burns burst onto the sports betting scene in the 1990s, first making his selections available to the public in 1998. Now entering his tenth year, Ben has become one of the most successful and well-respected handicappers on the entire Internet. From 1998 to 2006, Ben had his selections documented by the Big Guy Sports Monitor. During that time, he accumulated numerous seasonal titles in all the major sports. In fact, competing against a field of 150, Ben's NFL selections still rank as #1 of all-time there. With such a commanding lead over the field, it is highly unlikely that his all-time NFL record there will ever be matched. Like all handicappers, Ben goes through both hot and cold streaks. However, whether winning or losing, he always "tells it like it is." Perhaps more importantly, as his many fans are quick to point out, Ben's winning weeks tend to greatly outnumber his losing ones. Note that Ben followed up an extremely strong 2006 with an even better campaign in 2007! Ben is known as a "Totals Expert" and his over/under plays are highly sought after in all sports. In addition to his "total" success, Ben's "sides" are also known for their sizzling hot streaks. While he advocates playing all his selections equally, Ben's knack for nailing his "Big" plays is truly remarkable. Ben capped off a highly successful college football season by winning his Bowl Game of the Year, a 41-10 wire-to-wire destruction on Georgia over Hawaii. Ben's NFL playoffs didn't go as well though and he lost his first ever Super Bowl selection, when the Patriots were upset by the Giants. Despite that rare setback, Ben's Super Bowl record remains at 10-1 for his career. Additionally, his NFL playoff picks remain a powerful 47-22 (68%) ATS the past six years. Ben isn't just a football expert though, as his hockey, baseball AND basketball picks are also highly respected. Ben logs extremely long hours. His hard work clearly shows itself in his high quality writeups and extraordinary long-term records. If you're looking for an honest, hard-working handicapper with a documented history of success, give Ben Burns a try. We're sure that you'll be impressed! |
