SPORTS WAGERS
Orlando +7½ over BOSTON
What we have here is an inflated line due to the Celtics complete dominance in this series. Remember, the Magic were a 6½-point choice in game one, a 7-point favorite in game 2 and now there’s a 14-14½ swing in the point spread in game four? Wow. The Magic may bet blown away again but if they have any pride whatsoever, they’ll come out and play their hearts out from start to finish. Team’s with a 3-0 lead have a tendency to get a little complacent figuring that the series is over and while they’re probably right this is a lot of points to be spotting a team that figures to go down fighting hard. The C’s have come in with a near flawless game plan and they’ve executed it to near perfection but again, a little Celtic letdown and a few early three’s by Orlando and the Magic could absolutely keep this one well within this range and possibly even win. They could go home completely embarrassed but to avoid that all they need to do is play hard for 48 minutes and put forth a strong showing regardless of whether they win or lose. One thing is for certain; this line is inflated and that’s always the best time to step in. Play: Orlando +7½ (Risking 2.14 units to win 2).
Pittsburgh +1.64 over CINCINNATI
Aaron Harang should not be this big a price over anyone and that’s all there is to it. To begin with, the Reds are 2-7 when Harang starts and that alone makes him a huge risk. He comes in with a well-deserved 6.02 ERA and .316 BAA after allowing 67 hits in 52 innings. Harang has allowed 10 bombs already this year and while the Pirates could make him or anyone else look good, Harang is still too much of a big risk to warrant laying –1.75 on. The Pirates have won its last two games in which Brian Burres started. He’s not going to dazzle anyone but he’s getting good run support and he’s giving the Pirates a chance to win. If you throw out a recent start he had at Wrigley with the wind blowing out (the total in that game was 10½), Burres has only allowed three earned runs over his last 19.1 innings and that includes shutting out the Dodgers in 5.1 frames. The fact that Harang has been so frequently knocked around gives the Pirates a great chance to win here and at this price they’re certainly worth a look. Play: Pittsburgh +1.64 (Risking 2 units).
Toronto +1.17 over L.A. ANGELS
Brett Cecil remains one of the most undervalued pitchers in the game and the fact that the Angels have never seen him makes him even more appealing here. Cecil throws strikes and he’s very capable of striking out guys, as his 30 K’s in 34 innings will attest to. His only rough outing of the year came in Arlington and if you take away that start he would have dazzling numbers. Joe Saunders has walked 23 and struck out 25. His last three games have come against Seattle, Oakland and the White Sox and that would explain his 0.81 ERA over his last three starts. Prior to those last three games, Saunders was 1-5 with an ERA of 7.04 and the fact of the matter is he’s just an average pitcher. One also must consider the current state of the Angels bullpen. They were absolutely crushed over the weekend in St. Louis and if you can’t get guys out in that park against that team, it says a lot. The Angels pen is dead last in the AL with a 5.33 ERA. They’re also averaging seven walks every nine innings and they’re dead last in the AL with 89 walks issued. In fact, they’re just about dead last in every key category and unless Saunders can go seven or more, the Angels are extremely vulnerable. So, we get the better offense, the better defense, the better starter, the better bullpen and a tag to boot. Play: Toronto +1.17 (Risking 2 units).

THE DUKE SPORTS
LA Angels (-125) for 2 Units
Joe Saunders has gotten into rhythm with a 0.81 ERA over his last 3 starts. He'll be difficult to hit for a Blue Jays' lineup batting just .213 on the road vs lefties. The Blue Jays have lost 11 of their last 16 against lefty starters. The Angels are 11-3 as a small home favorite with Saunders, and they're 27-9 in Game 1 of a series with Saunders. We'll look for the Angels' lineup to get the best of Brett Cecil who is expending a lot of pitches to get through innings. Over his last 3 starts his WHIP has ballooned to 2.05 with a lofty 8.56 ERA. With increased pressure on the Toronto bullpen, we'll look for LA to knock Toronto around here.

BOB BALFE
Chicago White Sox -140
The Indians, for whatever reason, have dominated the White Sox as of late. Both teams are not playing well this year, but Danks is a much better pitcher then Masterson and Chicago needs a big win to avoid being swept. Let's go with the better starting pitcher in Danks with two evenly-matched offenses. Take the White Sox.

Monday MLB Totals play- GC
On Monday night the free MLB Totals play is on the Under 9 runs in the Toronto at LA. Angels game. Rotation numbers 957/58 at 10:05 eastern. Both of these teams have struggled vs left handed pitching this season. Toronto is averaging a shade over 2 runs and hitting just .189. The Angels are averaging just 3.5 runs per game on .229 hitting vs leftys. In the pitching match up the Angles have J.Saunders tonight and he has been spectacular in his past 3 starts with a 0.81 era. He has already shutdown down Toronto this season going 8 innings without allowing an earned run. Toronto counters with B.Cecil and he has a respectable American league road era of 3.42. Look for this game to go under tonight.. Also I will have another free pick on the Monday nights weekly radio show at 8:05 eastern the "Bandbox" with Anthony Pierno at 88.9 wsia.fm. For the Bonus Play take the under in the Toronto at La.Angels game. GC
