Indian Cowboy
4 Unit Play. Take Indiana Fever -2.5 over the Washington Mystics (Tuesday @ 7pm est). When you ride a double-digit win streak, certainly you are doing something right. The Fever were riding high going into Connecticut, where the Sun had revenge, and lost in their last game. But, Indiana has been steadily improving and their ATS backers have been cashing along the way. I like them as they come off a rare loss today as they continue their road trip into Washington. Indiana has four players averaging double-digits and they have solid depth. These two teams have not hooked up this year, but Indiana certainly has the gusto to go in and win on the road in Washington. After all, this team defeated Chicago on the road 83-54. The Mystics come off a big win 68-67 over New York at home and certainly they are riding high off the victory. But, I suspect they will likely have a let down today. This team has quite a bit of talent, but remember, they had lost to Phoenix and San Antonio at home, so certainly, they could lose today at home to the Fever who come off a rare SU loss.
4 Unit Play. Take Under 9 between the Boston Redsox @ Texas Rangers (8:05pm est). Tommy Hunter, the Bama' alum, throws for the Rangers today. He is 1-1 with a 2.35 era as he is one of the pride and joys of this team for the future. Tommy pitched six scoreless innings at Seattle and did not pick up a decision in his last start. He has certainly proved capable over his last three starts holding the opposition to just 3 runs over nearly 18 innings of work. I suspect Hanson, who faces the Redsox for the first time today will have an advantage as the pitcher typically gets the edge the first time through the lineup. I do think the Redsox coming off a loss will be successful the second time through the lineup, but for the most part, Tommy should hold his own. With the Redsox coming off a 3-6 loss yesterday, I expect Beckett to be strong today. Plus, Josh is a native of Texas and usually pitches very well against the Rangers as he has a 2-1 record with a 3.63era lifetime record against the Rangers.
4 Unit Play. Take the Oakland A's -1.5 Runs (+162) over the Minnesota Twins (10:05pm est). I've never been a big fan of the Run-Line but I think the game today has potential. For starters, the dog price is appealing. You have Braden who comes off one of his worst starts of his career. He got absolutely rocked at home by the Angels in his last start as he gave up his worst numbers of the season as it relates to hits and runs - 10 and 6. He looks to bounce-back at home against the Twins and he faces Swarazak, who has not had much luck with the A's thus far. Swarazak in his limited stint with the A's gave up 3 runs in less than 4 innings of work earlier this season against Oakland. In fact, the only reason he is starting this game is that Kevin Slowey is taking a bit longer to come back from his wrist injury. I look for Braden to bounce-back and certainly, I don't want to pay the hefty juice on the ML. If Oakland has success in hitting as they are liable today to and Braden is too bounce-back as we expect him too, then we should be able to cash on the RL. Plus, the value is there for us to take a shot at the solid value.
