Service Plays Monday 5/16/11

[Can'tPickaWinner2]

The Rx.com Mod Team has created this Service Play sub-forum in order to supply an area for Rx Service Play Posters to expand upon their posting topics without creating a logjam in the main forum where the three principle threads are maintained..

Posters can track services here if they care to but we will need any trackers to do so in an accurate and civil manner. We did not create this area for posters to ridicule or bash any services..

You can also discuss who is hot and who is not. The general state of the pay for plays industry and any other subject or topic related to service plays.

You can also create individual threads about specific services and discuss them freely but civilly. Again bashing and abusive treatment of any services will not be tolerated.

Please remember, this forum is not here for regular posters who cap their own games to post ther daily plays. Please use our individual sport forums to post your plays. Professional cappers (those that sell plays) must remain in the Site Promotion Forum.

The Rx.com will not tolerate posters that post false records of any services they track. Please be truthful if you decide to track a particular service.

Lastly The Rx Moderators are appealing to you our everyday posters to report any promotional threads or posts that are made by services or individual touts. No links or contact information to an individual service will be allowed. Just the name of the service. Please report any threads or posts that are promotional attempts by services and touts to use this forum to promote themselves..

Posters can easily report a promotional post by using the triangular Report-a-Post Icon at the bottom left of all post boxes. The poster name of any poster who reports a post that is out of line will be kept strictly confidential.

I will leave this thread open for a month to take questions and do my best to answer them. I will check in daily but am off on Wednesday and Thursday.

I hope this additional Service Play Forum will satisfy those posters that would like to widen the scope of topics relating to service plays and the industry in general to have their own threads. Mods will be liberal as possible regarding topics but this forum was specifically created to allow you more freedom to express your ideas regarding service plays and related subject matter. No off topic threads will be allowed.

Thank you, wilheim

MLB News and Notes
St Louis Cardinals host Phillies on ESPN
By: Willie Bee

A couple of former Cleveland teammates square off on the mound to open a quick, 2-game set Monday night at Busch Stadium. The 4:10 p.m. (PT) battle features Cliff Lee for the visiting Phillies against Jake Westbrook for the St. Louis Cardinals and will be aired on ESPN.

Opening listings on the Don Best odds screen had the Phillies 130 chalk with 7½ for the scoreboard.

St. Louis (22-19, -1.9 units) enters off a 6-game roadie that started well in Chicago before ending in disaster at Cincinnati. The Reds swept three from the Cardinals to take over the lead in the NL Central standings, St. Louis now 1.5 games back.

Philadelphia (25-14, +5.5 units) begins the week at the top of the NL East with the best record in the National League. This series will complete an 8-game trip for the Phils who have split the first six in Florida and Atlanta along the way.

The last time Lee (4-4, 3.78) posted a win on his ledger was April 14, his third start of the season. He was a victim of run support during a 3-start stretch in which the Phils scored just one time, and is coming off a no-decision his last time out at Florida, a game Philadelphia eventually won 5-3 after Lee left in a 3-0 hole.

Philly is 2-2 when Lee pitches on the road this season, the lefty sporting a rather bloated 4.62 ERA away from Citizens Bank Park. This will be just his third career start vs. the Cardinals, second at this version of Busch Stadium. His previous two assignments against St. Louis resulted in wins for the Indians.

Westbrook (4-4, 6.92) has just three quality starts in his eight mound assignments and has struggled with command in all but one outing. The Cardinals are 2-2 in Westbrook's starts at home where the right-hander has an 8.24 ERA.

He's coming off a beating at Wrigley Field this past Wednesday. The Cubs chased Westbrook with a 6-run third inning, five of the runs charged to his linescore, and hung an 11-4 beating as 120 underdogs.

Westbrook's lone experience against the Phillies came last season before he was dealt from Cleveland to St. Louis, the start coming in Philadelphia. He worked five innings and allowed four runs, not figuring into the decision that went Philly's way, 7-6.

This is the first meeting of the season between the Cards and Phils after the clubs split their eight matchups in 2010. Each team went 3-1 on its home diamond with the game totals 1-1 with a pair of 'pushes' in the four games at Busch.

Philadelphia is slowly but surely getting healthier. The Phillies saw catcher Carlos Ruiz return to action over the weekend after a 15-day stint on the disabled list due to a back injury. Roy Oswalt, also out with back woes, is scheduled to come off the DL on Tuesday to start the series finale against Cardinals lefty Jaime Garcia. That should be the second-straight home game as the 'dog for St. Louis after entering this series the favorite in all but one of their home games. The Cards won that matchup with Westbrook on the hill.

St. Louis continues to be without half of its Opening Day infield. Second baseman Skip Schumaker (right arm) is close to returning for the Redbirds, possibly in the next 7-10 days. Third baseman David Freese (broken left hand) is still 6-8 weeks away from getting back in the lineup.

The weather looks fine for Monday's meeting, though a bit on the cool and breezy side. Forecasters are calling for clear skies, a game-time temp in the upper-50s and a north wind 10-15 mph (in from left).

MLB News and Notes
MLB Betting: Boston Red Sox host nemesis Orioles
By: Michael Robinson

The Baltimore Orioles look to continue their recent hex over the Boston Red Sox when they start a short two-game series on Monday night.

Opening pitch from Boston’s famed Fenway Park will be 4:10 p.m. (PT). Baltimore will send Chris Tillman (2-3, 6.15 ERA) to the hill to face Daisuke Matsuzaka (3-3, 4.64 ERA).

Baltimore has been a thorn in Boston’s side recently. They split 18 games last season despite Boston winning 23 more games overall (89-66). The Orioles also won two of three at Camden Yards in the only meeting this year in late April.

Baltimore (18-20) finds itself at the bottom of the AL East, but just 4.5 games behind first place Tampa Bay. Hitting has been a problem at 3.87 runs per game, 12th in the AL. Veteran additions Mark Reynolds, Vladimir Guerrero and Derrek Lee have underachieved as have holdovers Nick Markakis and Brian Roberts.

The pitching ranks 13th in the AL (4.38 ERA), but has shown promise. The starters shined early as Baltimore began the year 6-1. The rotation has also been lights-out the last five games (combined 1.42 ERA), with the O’s winning four. That doesn’t include Sunday’s series rubber match at Tampa, with the result still pending.

Tillman had one of those great recent starts. He allowed just one run and three hits over six innings at home against Seattle last Wednesday (4-2 win). He out-dueled one of baseball’s best pitchers in Felix Hernandez.

The 23-year-old right-hander is in his third MLB season, never making more than 12 starts in a year or posting an ERA lower than 5.40. His road ERA this year (8.27 ERA) is much worse than home (4.15), which is worrisome for Monday night.

Tillman hasn’t seen the Red Sox this season. His only career start against them was a disaster, four earned runs over 1 1/3 innings in an 11-0 home loss last June.

Boston (19-20) is returning home after a five-game road trip. The first two losses in Toronto were followed by two big wins at Yankee Stadium. The Sunday night game versus the Bronx Bombers is still pending.

Manager Terry Francona jury-rigged the weekend rotation so top pitchers Clay Buchholz, Josh Beckett and Jon Lester would all see action. Fortunately, John Lackey (MLB-worst 8.01 ERA for starters) wasn’t scheduled to pitch.

Matsuzaka could have pitched Saturday in what would have been his regular turn. Instead, he was pushed back to avoid the hostile New York environment.

The 30-year-old right-hander last pitched Sunday at home against Minnesota. He allowed four earned runs over six innings in a 9-5 win. That was his first start since April 29 after leaving with elbow soreness.

Matsuzaka’s 4.64 ERA is skewed by a terrible outing (seven runs over two innings) versus Tampa Bay on April 11. His ERA is 2.90 outside that contest.

The Japan native last faced Baltimore in September, surrendering four earned runs in 6 1/3 innings in a 4-2 loss. He’s 4-3 with just a 5.73 ERA in nine lifetime starts against the Orioles, but Boston is 5-2 in his last seven starts against them.

Boston is 11-9 at home this year, with the ‘over’ going 10-8-2. The ‘over’ is 4-1-1 in Matsuzaka’s six starts overall.

Baltimore is 8-9 away with the ‘under’ 9-8 in those games. The ‘under’ is 4-0 in its last four games overall.

Weather will be in the 50s with spotty showers. The rain is expected to continue for several days which could also dampen Tuesday’s contest of Lackey versus impressive rookie lefty Zach Britton.

Monday’s Streaking and Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking

Homer Bailey, Cincinnati Reds (2-0, 0.69 ERA)

Bailey has made just two starts since coming off the DL with his shoulder injury and has been brilliant in both. He has allowed just one earned run in 13 innings of work while striking out 12 and walking only one batter.

Granted, his first two starts of the year have been against the impotent Houston Astros, but it looks like Bailey has it going on this season.

He blanked Houston over seven innings in his last trip to the hill, striking out five in a 7-3 victory as a -130 favorite. He’s up against Carlos Zambrano and the Cubs and is listed as at -140.

Max Scherzer, Detroit Tigers (6-0, 3.20 ERA)

Scherzer leads the MLB starting pitcher money list, helping Detroit to victories in seven of his eight start while piling up more than six unites for Tigers bettors already.

He had his shortest outing of the season the last time he was on the bump but still held the Jays to two runs over five innings while striking out five. If there’s one area of concern, it’s his control. He has walked 23 batters so far but has 51 strikeouts and his WHIP checks in at 1.40.

He was supposed to go Sunday but a rainout pushed his start back a day.

Slumping

Brett Myers, Houston Astros (1-3, 5.01 ERA)

Last season Myers was the rock of Houston’s staff in picking up 13 wins to go along with a 3.14 ERA. This season, he’s a big part of the team’s struggles.

Myers has a fat 8.15 ERA and a 1.92 WHIP in his last three starts – all Houston losses. Understandably, he’s losing confidence in his stuff and says he’s throwing too many breaking pitches lately instead of challenging hitters.

Ubaldo Jimenez, Colorado Rockies (0-3, 6.67 ERA)

Rockies manager Jim Tracy is trying to keep his ace from getting too down on himself, but that task is getting tougher all the time.

After being almost unhittable through much of last season, Jimenez can’t hit the strike zone with his sinker or slider. He lasted just 3 2/3 innings in his last start and has walked 11 batters over his last two outings.

Jimenez has served up four dingers after allowing just 11 all of last season.

 

[Can'tPickaWinner2]

Monday’s Best MLB Bets

Florida Marlins at New York Mets (+145, 6.5)

The Mets biggest problem in recent seasons has been themselves. On Monday, however, their worst nightmare is Josh Johnson.

Florida’s ace is arguably the best pitcher in baseball right now. Despite giving up an uncharacteristic five earned runs at St. Louis on May 5, Johnson still boasts an ERA of 1.63 to go along with a 3-1 record and 53 strikeouts in 55.1 innings. He bounced back on Tuesday by allowing just one run in seven innings while striking out seven in a 2-1 victory over NL East rival Philadelphia.

“All the world will now know who Josh Johnson is,” manager Edwin Rodriguez told the Palm Beach Post after his man out-dueled Roy Halladay in what many called an instant classic. “That put Josh Johnson on the next level.”

As for the Mets, well, they are once again on a level down from Philadelphia, Florida, and Atlanta in the East. At 18-21 as of Sunday afternoon, they are tied for last in the division with Washington.

Furthermore, New York is 8-11 at home while the Marlins are 11-6 as visitors.

Pick: Marlins

Los Angeles Angels at Oakland Athletics (-135, 6.5)

Joel Pineiro has pitched like gangbusters for the Angeles ever since coming off the disabled list late last month.

Having been sidelined due to right shoulder tightness, Pineiro wasted no time getting back into a groove. He gave up a mere four hits and one run through seven innings in his 2011 debut on April 30 and he most recently went 7 2/3 innings while surrendering only two runs in a 6-2 victory over the White Sox on Tuesday.

He threw 98 pitches, not quite getting to the 100-pitch mark for what would have been the first time of the year.

“Guys were making fun of me—‘'maybe next time you can break that 100-pitch mark’ — but it's only the third start back,” Pineiro told the Orange County Register. “I felt great.”

Overall, Pineiro is 2-0 with a 1.33 ERA after three starts this season. That is not good news for the Athletics, who will look to crack the Pineiro code on Monday.

Interestingly, Los Angeles has been more impressive on the road than at home in 2011. Mike Scioscia’s squad is just 9-10 in Anaheim, but as of Sunday afternoon the club was 13-8 on the road. That’s the second best visiting mark in the American League behind Tampa Bay.

Pick: Angels

Today's MLB Picks

Toronto at Detroit

The Blue Jays look to build on their 4-0 record in Kyle Drabek's last 4 starts in Game 1 of a series. Toronto is the pick (+135) according to Dunkel, which has the Blue Jays favored by 1/2 a run. Dunkel Pick: Toronto (+135). Here are all of today's picks.
