Baseball plays for Monday

I must have a fever because I have a number of favorites today and yesterday I went 2-0 with favorites.

Baseball

40-44 +2.60 units

Colorado -120 The Rockies hovering around .500 on the road and very happy to leave New York. Today they have a positive pitching match up and although they have lost 2 in a row, the Rockies are 6-4 over their last 10 games. The Cubs are a pathetic 16-22 at home and are already looking to next year.

Toronto/Detroit Over 9.5 -110 Scherzer for the Tigers is 9-3 but doing it with smoke and mirrors with an E.R.A close to 5.00. While the Blue Jays pitcher will be lucky to get thru 5 innings and that leaves the game up to a suspect bullpen. Both teams are on mini winning streaks right now and should be confident at the plate.

Tampa Bay -125 The only bad part of this play is the Rays are only a .500 team at home. The Rays come home on a 4 game winning streak and are 8-2 over their last 10. The Reds to this point in interleague play have only won 2 games and are only 4-6 over their last 10 games. The pitching match up favors the Rays and this will be a surface switch game for the reds after playing a number of games outside. The Reds will take at least a game to acclimate to playing in the dungeon.

Minnesota -115 This homestand is going to make or break the Twins season. They were the hottest team in baseball for over a month but trips to San Francisco and Milwaukee produced a 1-5 record. Although the Twins have lost their last 5 games they still are 5-5 in their last 10 games. The Dodgers got a small confidence boost yesterday but they still cannot hit the ball worth a hill of beans, rarely scoring more then 3 runs in a game. The Twins finally are playing a team where they have the better starting pitcher and bats that are better then their opponent.

Kansas City +130 Here we have the meek playing the meek. The odds make up the difference and a rare play on the Royals is the way to go.

Washington +125 I always make a play on the new manager when their is a change. The players will want to show their new boss that they are as hot as it seems on paper. It also helps that the Angels lost a game they had won yesterday in the other teams last at bat. This is a hangover play one of the most powerful plays in all sports. Lannan for Washington has been very good his last few outings and always will go deep into the game. The bullpen for the Nationals is rested and ready if needed. It also helps that the Angels have about the same record as do the Nationals, Home/Away.

Have a great day.
