Chicago Cubs at Tampa Bay Rays
Thursday, June 19th, 7:10 PM ET
The Cubs are a perfect 9-0 this season if coming off back to back losses and despite the oddsmakers opinion on this matchup, we like them to get the job done tonight in Tampa. Rays starter James Shields is coming off consecutive poor outings where his team was outscored by a combined 13-2 margin. With the Cub bats having been silent thus far in the series, we look for MLB's best offense to rediscover itself and salvage a win in this three game set.
Play on: Chicago Cubs

<DT>922 COL (-121) SportBet vs 921 CLE <DD>Analysis: *** 3* MLB BEST BET of the DAY ***
Lets come right back with the Rockies this evening and see if they can cash a second straight 3* Best Bet with a win tonight over Cleveland...Sowers has really been struggling since being recalled from AAA, and with limited offense behind him, I expect the Rockies to come out looking to get the much needed sweep.

Had originally looked to take the Cubs +1.5 and lay the -150 asking price...but this team hasn't been swept ALL YEAR and with this being a "coming home" for Pinella, I expect the Cubs to come out and give it all they got, while even though TBay would love to Sweep them...they do know they have won the series so we may see them a bit more relaxed tonight...just too much value to pass up with that kind of record against the sweep for Chicago, even against Sheilds...

Vegas Snitch
OK. Make no mistake about it, Germany is FAR talented than Portugal. Portugal is a two man team with a very soft defense. This is a special play for the Snitch, because you are getting an ENORMOUS value with the MUCH better team. Why the value? Here lies the problem: the Germans have been playing AWFUL this tournament, but we will trust the Insiders banking that now this tournament is back to a new beginning, and a clean slate. If these two teams would have played each other few weeks ago, the Germans would be the favorites here, and that is what you call value. Germany has phenomenal defense, and an amazing center piece with Michael Ballack that WILL control the center play. Its time that Ballack starts getting as much respect as the Ronaldo's, Kaka's, and Messi's of the world. Ballack is special, and will show today. Oh, a fellow by the name of Podolski isn't too shabby either (hint the sarcasm) Germany spanked Portugal in the World Cup 3-1, and they win again with a DOMINATING performance. You are getting possibly the most talented team in the world as underdogs today! To the picks we go:
Germany +240 (must win before end of regulation)
Germany +.5
Germany PK +130 (draw end of regulation pushes)
Germany to Advance/Qualify next round +140
Game Over 1.5
Game Over 2
Game Over 2.5
