Hondo, the heartbreak kid, lost two the hard way last night, going down the tubes with the Angels and Giants to trim the bankroll to 130 cuellars.

Tonight, he will give Guthrie, a former stable stal wart, an opportunity to get back in -- 10 units on the Orioles to flutter past the Angels.

THE SPORTS ADVISORS

THURSDAY, JULY 2

NATIONAL LEAGUE

San Francisco (42-35) at St. Louis (42-38)

The Giants send left-hander Barry Zito (4-7, 4.55 ERA) to the mound at Busch Stadium for the finale of a four-game series with the Cardinals, who will start right-hander Todd Wellemeyer (6-7, 5.68).

Last night, San Francisco’s Matt Cain and St. Louis’ Adam Wainwright engaged in a pitchers’ duel, with neither ultimately figuring in the decision as the Cardinals won 2-1 on a Colby Rasmus homer in the 10th inning. The Giants have still won five of their last eight games – all on the road – and are on further runs of 8-4 overall and 6-3 against winning teams.

Conversely, St. Louis is on a 2-6 slide and carries additional negative streaks of 1-7 against the N.L. West, 2-5 at home and 2-4 against winning teams.

San Francisco has owned this rivalry lately, taking six of the last eight overall, and the Giants have gone 6-3 in their last nine contests at Busch Stadium (4-1 in the last five).

Zito has followed a four-game losing streak by going 3-1 in his last five starts, with the no-decision coming in Saturday’s outing at Milwaukee. In that contest, he got through five innings unscathed and with the Giants leading 4-0, but he gave up back-to-back homers in the sixth inning and exited with two outs and the game tied, and San Fran ended up losing 7-6.

Zito is 3-4 with a 5.20 ERA in eight road starts this season, and he’s 0-3 with a 4.57 ERA in four career starts against St. Louis, including a 6-2 home loss in May in which he allowed three runs on 10 hits and two walks in 6 2/3 innings.

The Cards have won three of their last four behind Wellemeyer, but he got the early hook Saturday at home against the Twins, after allowing three runs on four hits and four walks in just 2 1/3 innings of a 5-3 victory. In fact, Wellemeyer has allowed 21 earned runs in 26 1/3 innings over his last five starts, for a 7.17 ERA.

Wellemeyer is 3-5 with a 5.74 ERA in 10 home outings this season, but he’s 2-0 with a much more solid 3.00 ERA in three career starts against the Giants.

The over has hit in four of the last five meetings between these rivals, and the over for the Giants is on runs of 36-18-1 against the N.L. Central, 5-2 behind Zito, 5-1 with the southpaw facing the N.L. Central and 7-3-2 in Zito’s last 12 road starts. On the flip side, the under for the Cardinals is on rolls of 4-1 against lefties, 22-10-1 at home against winning teams, 5-1 with Wellemeyer facing a winning squad and 4-1 behind Wellemeyer at home.

ATS ADVANTAGE: ST. LOUIS

Milwaukee (42-36) at Chicago Cubs (37-38)

The Cubs return from a rough 10-game road trip looking to make up some ground in the N.L. Central when they send right-hander Ryan Dempster (4-5, 4.09 ERA) against the Brewers and fellow righty Seth McClung (3-1, 3.55) at Wrigley Field.

Chicago wrapped up a three-game set in Pittsburgh on Wednesday with a 4-1 victory, getting seven solid innings from Randy Wells (one run on six hits and a walk) and homers from Derrek Lee and Kosuke Fukudome. The Cubs went 3-7 on the road swing, but on their home field, they are on positive runs of 4-0 overall, 6-2 against winning teams and 9-3 against right-handed starters.

Milwaukee got shut out by Mike Pelfrey and the Mets in a 1-0 home setback last night. The Brewers have still won four of their last six and are on further upswings of 16-5 in series openers and 40-19 in division play, but they are on skids against righties of 4-10 overall and 1-4 on the road.

The Cubs have lost five in a row with Dempster starting, mostly due to low run production. Dempster has allowed 11 runs in 30 2/3 innings in that stretch, for a solid 3.22 ERA, but in the first four games of the skid, Chicago totaled just five runs. On Saturday across town against the White Sox, the Cubs’ offense finally got going, but Dempster got roughed up for five runs on eight hits and three walks in five innings of an 8-7 loss.

Dempster is 3-1 with a 4.14 ERA in six home starts this season, and he has been strong against the Brew Crew over the course of his career, going 9-3 with a 2.79 ERA in 37 appearances (15 starts). He has split his two starts against the Brewers this year, both at Milwaukee.

McClung has been almost exclusively a reliever this season, with 29 appearances but just one start. That start came Saturday at home against San Francisco, and he allowed three runs on six hits and two walks in four innings, though Milwaukee rallied from a 3-0 deficit to win 7-6.

McClung is 1-0 with a 3.28 ERA in 14 home appearances this year, and he’s 0-1 with a 2.55 ERA in 10 career appearances against Chicago. This will mark his first start against the Cubs.

The under for the Cubs is on a bundle of runs, including 5-1 overall, 19-6-2 within the division and 11-4 against winning teams, and with Dempster starting, the under is on rolls of 5-1 overall and 4-1 in series openers. With McClung starting, the under for the Brewers is on streaks of 9-3-1 overall and 4-1-1 on the road, but the over for the Brewers is on stretches of 11-5 overall, 7-1 against losing teams and 6-1 on the highway.

Finally, in this rivalry, the over is on surges of 13-6-2 overall, 5-1-2 in Chicago and 5-1 with Dempster taking the ball.

ATS ADVANTAGE: CHICAGO CUBS

Al DeMarco
Al DeMarco Thursday's Play 5 Dime - CHICAGO WHITE SOX (Buehrle) - 1 1/2 Runs over Kansas City (Chen)

The White Sox offense plated 23 runs in a three-game sweep at Cleveland completed last night. Chicago has averaged 6.64 runs during its current 9-2 spurt, scoring six or more in eight of those 11 contests. Tonight the Pale Hose march into Kansas City to face Bruce Chen, who last Saturday made his first major league start since August of 2006 following elbow surgery. The lefthander allowed seven hits and four runs - all earned - in 6.1 innings while losing to a light-hitting Pittsburgh team.

Chicago hurler Mark Buehrle struggled in his last start against the Cubs, giving up six hits and five runs - three earned - while walking three in just 5.2 innings. He received a no-decision in that game, but it did mark another White Sox victory, their 11th in his 15 outings this season. And Buehrle carries a 19-8 record and 3.48 career ERA against Kansas City into his third start versus the Royals this season. He failed to record a decision in either of the first two outings, but pitched well enough to win both, allowing five runs in 12.1 innings.

Buehrle will face a KC attack that's mustered just 26 runs in its last nine games, scoring no more than four in any of those contests.

Chicago swept a three-game series at Kauffman Stadium in its first trip to Kansas City in the closing days of May. The White Sox are on a 13-4 run on the road, where they're hitting over .280 this season. And, they've scored 37 runs and batted over .300 during their current five-game winning streak with Paul Konerko (5 HR last 11 games), Jermaine Dye (.486 last nine games) and Gordon Beckham (.579 and 6 RBI in last six games) powering the offense.

Considering my bankroll, I wouldn't mind playing this game on the moneyline. But, as you know, my limit is around -150 and you don't need any handicapper to tell you to bet on an overwhelming favorite in such situations, even if that line isn't that overwhelming. In reality, however, the prudent move and wise investment strategy tonight is to take the White Sox on the Run Line, making one of the hottest teams in baseball a great buy since we're laying - 1 1/2 runs. And considering they're averaging 6.64 runs in their last 11 games while the Royals have managed a total of 26 runs in their last nine, making this a Run Line release at - 1 1/2 runs is the mathematically-wise strategy.

PAY-AFTER-YOU-WIN - 500* - NY Mets w/Redding over Maholm
The Mets have had a huge chip on their shoulder since getting swept earlier this season at PNC Park, and their 1-5 mark their last 6 certainly doesn't indicate an automatic "buy sign" today, but I like this price.

New York knows how to hit Paul Maholm, as they roughed him up for 7 runs in just 5 innings back in May at Citi Field.

Tim Redding's numbers sure don't look too good, but I have seen him work a few times now this season, and the guy is capable of keeping the Mets in the game.

New York got off the 5-game schneid with the 1-0 win last night, I like them to take this make-up game, and return us some cabbage on the take-back.

PAY-AFTER-YOU-WIN

500♦ - NY Mets w/Redding over Maholm

♦♦♦NOTE: Both listed pitchers must start, or no action on the play!♦♦♦

IMPORTANT NOTES

Here's how the Pay After You Win Purchase works:

When you make a Pay After You Win Purchase, your credit card is AUTHORIZED for the cost of the play, but the charge is NOT processed

processed unless the play is a winner.

If the play wins, the sale is processed.

If the play loses, the collected AUTHORIZATION is VOIDED.

Understand this: There is absolutely no charge made to your credit card

unless the play is a winner. In advance of the game, all we're doing is

making sure you have, for example, $17 of available credit if you purchased

Trace Adams' Pay After You Win release.

FYI REGARDING ONLINE STATEMENTS

If you're looking at your online credit card statement, you will still see a charge for the play even if it lost. However, you have NOT been charged. Rather, you are seeing the Authorized Charge.

Unfortunately, your online statement has no way of showing you the information has been purged by our system if the play was a loser.

This is the problem with relying on all online statements.

If you have any doubts, simply call the toll-free customer service 800 number on the back of your card to confirm that a charges was NOT made on a losing selection.

Thursday's play
10 Dime -- PIRATES (Maholm) over Mets (Redding)

NOTE: List only Maholm as Pittsburgh's starting pitcher

Pirates left-hander Paul Maholm (5-4, 4.35 ERA) got belted by the Mets on May 9, allowing seven runs on 10 hits over five innings in a 10-1 loss.

However, Maholm has been relatively successful in his career against New York, going 3-2 with a 3.65 ERA in six starts. He catches the Mets at a good time, as they have scored three runs or less in six of their last seven games.

Maholm has been sharp in six home starts this season, at 3-1 with a 1.96 ERA, including a two-run, five-hit performance over seven innings Friday in a 6-2 win over Kansas City.

Right-hander Tim Redding (1-3, 6.35) will take the mound for New York, and he has not fared well against Pittsburgh, going 0-1 with a 6.38 ERA in five outings. Pirates shortstop Jack Wilson is 10-for-26 (.385) against him.

Redding gave up five runs on six hits, including two homers, in 5 1/3 innings Saturday in a 5-0 loss to the Yankees.

The Mets and Pirates are tied for last in the majors in homers (49), so the ball should stay inside PNC Park. With New York riddled with injuries, I’ll give the edge to Pittsburgh’s offense now. And Maholm on the mound definitely gives it the edge. Go with the Pirates.

PAID AND CONFIRMED BY ME GOOD LUCK<><>

75,000* GAME OF THE DAY Plus Bonus Lock
Your winners here are on:

1. 75,000♦ Phillies

2. 50,000♦ Astros

1. Javier Vazquez has been flat out awesome of late and he is better than JA Happ but I will still take my chances and some money back here with the Fightin' Phils.

It seems like Bobby Cox' team just does not hit the ball for their righthander. To be honest Chipper and the fellas haven't really been doing much damager offensively for anyone. Today they are up against a quality Southpaw in Happ that can easily have his way once again. Happ is coming off of that complete game shutout in Toronto against a very good Blue Jays offense and should be just fine here.

The Phillies are not playing good ball there is no denying that but to get their upside with superstas in Howard and Utley along with Wesrth, Victorino and the overdue Jimmy Rollins gives the clear cut nod offensively to the visitors.

I can't say that I love what Lidge and Madson have become lately at all leading to the inferior bullpen in this matchup but like I said on Tuesday, I just cannot pass up the defending World Champions plus some money here at a ballpark that they have owned for years.

Philadelphia is still the definite better team when compared to Atlanta and in the stadium that is the second highest elevation behind Coors Field, I am all about Charlie Manual's offense today.

I'm sure Vazquez will once again be very good and get his share of strikeouts but in the end the value and right side is on the Phillies.

2. Kevin Correia has been really good of late but let's be honest here, he is still "Kevin Correia". I don't care how on the righty is he is what he is and at some point will gravitate back to that mediocre at the very best hurler. When you factor that in with the horrificness of the San Diego offense I can't help but make a small play on the Astros.

Besides Adrian Gonzalez and maybe Scott Hairston and David Eckstein the Padres really do not have anything at all offensively and once again we will see just that.

Sure Houston is not a very good club, I fully admit that. Their sum seems to never equal their parts as guys like Lee, Berkman, Tejada, Pence and a few others are quality ballplayers but it doesn't seem to matter as the team overall is not very good. But with that said Wandy Rodriguez is a talented lefty and should be fine here at the pitchers' paradise known as PETCO Park. I 100% understand how the lefty is usually much better at home than on the road but all in all he is still better than Correia, no matter how much hotter the Sand Diego starter is.

The bottom line in this thing is that the Astros win this game a decent amount more than they lose this game constituting a value.
