3-Unit Play Take # 971 Tampa Bay Rays -125 over Toronto Blue Jays (7:05p.m.)

The Rays have now won 8 of their last 10. They have scored 57 runs in those games. The Jays are 10-19 in their last 29. Scott Kazmir has won 4 of his last 5 starts. There are lots of reasons to continue to ride the Tampa train.


3-Unit Play Take # 975 Chicago White Sox +130 over Boston Red Sox (7:10p.m.)

Tim Wakefield shows up tonight after spending six weeks on the DL. We don’t know what we will get, but I doubt we will get the same Wakefield who was on fire. Looks like a good spot for the White Sox to get some hits with runners in scoring position.

3-Unit Play Take #980 Seattle Mariners -120 over Oakland A’s (10:10p.m.)

The Mariners have won 11 of the last 14 meeting’s with the A’s, and attempt to sweep this series. Lefty Luke French is looking to build on a quality outing for Seattle. The last place A’s should offer little resistance.

2 Unit Play. #970 Take LA Angels -120 over Detroit (Wednesday 8/26 3:35 PM)

The Detroit Tigers have an opportunity to sweep the Los Angeles Angels on the road for the first time in 16 years. Do I think this will happen? NO! The Angels need this home win because the Texas Rangers are creeping up the AL West standings.

3 Unit Play. #977 Take Under 10 (-110) Baltimore at Minnesota (Wednesday 8/26 8:10 PM)

The last 5 meetings between these two teams 4 of them have gone “Under” the total. Baltimore is 1-4 O/U in their last 5 road games.

3 Unit Play. #980 Take Seattle -110 over Oakland (Wednesday 8/26 10:10 PM)

Bring out the brooms in Seattle tonight as the Mariners should be able to sweep the A’s at home. Oakland is struggling to score runs in Seattle and if the Mariners get a good outing from Luke French we should see this sweep. Seattle is 8-1 against Oakland at home. Oakland is 2-5 in their last 7 meetings against a left-handed starter.

STEPHEN NOVER

Reds at Brewers
Pick: Over 9.5

This is a huge bargain to the over to get these two teams and this bad pitching matchup with a total less than double-digits.
Both bullpens have serious fatigue issues after last night's extra inning affair.
This is a hitter's park and we have two bad starting pitchers.
The Reds have already seen Braden Looper four times this season. He has a 5.40 ERA versus Cincinnati this year.
However, the Brewers should smack around Kip Wells. He has a 5.91 ERA and hasn't made a start in more than a month. He's only getting a start here because the Reds are desperate with Aaron Harang out for the season. Wellis is my lowest rated starting pitcher in the majors.

Wunderdog Horse selections

SARATOGA Race #4 at 2:35 PM Eastern

Top pick: #1 (SANTANA SIX) - One of a pair of runners from trainer Nick Zito and they'll race uncoupled. Colt has been freshened-up since a sub-par effort in a stakes at Monmouth. Training well, has the best early speed and draws the rail. The top selection.​

<!--p-->

2nd pick: #6 (Hoophoe) - The second of the Zito duo broke his maiden here August 1st at this demanding 9 furlong trip. He's come-back to work fast and is a win candidate as he takes on winners for the first time.​

3rd pick: #2 (Guam Typhoon) - He finished a pace-setting 3rd here at this distance in a small stakes early in the meet. Consistent and lightly raced, he's a contender again today.​

The Sports Investing Professional - Wednesday
Yesterday's Recap -That was just too easy...."Big Z" was as awful as I suspected
and I'm just pissed I wasn't more aggressive for all of you.


Todays Play(s) - The prices today are just stupid and that is the norm this time
of the year so we'll just have to use the runline today and get down on the Braves.

Craig Davis
Wednesday's Lineup
40 DIME ---- DODGERS (With Wolf and Fogg as listed pitchers)

While everyone else in the world is falling in love with the Rockies, I'm cautiously handicapping the numbers to make sure I, too, don't fall prey to this Colorado love-fest. Look, I'm not doubting what they've done recently and the amazing comeback they have made in the NL West, but let's be real... this type of comeback takes its toll and it's eventually going to slow down. This team has won 27 of their last 37 games to pull within two games of the Dodgers in the West, and with two more wins vs. their rival they will be tied heading into their weekend series at San Francisco. As quickly as they've climbed back into this race they can just as quickly fall six or seven games out. How many times do you see a team put together this type of magical run, only to get within a few games of the division lead before they come back to earth? It's just too much to ask of any team to expend this type of energy and consistency in any sport for as long as they have... and it would be crazy to think they can keep it up much longer.

Remember, we're talking about grown men, not machines. They will eventually break down and start playing "regular baseball". Look at the Yankees --- they went on an incredible tear right after the All-Star Break but have recently come back to "normalcy" and have maintained a 6-7 game lead over the Red Sox for about two weeks now. Expect the same from Colorado, starting tonight. No longer can they continue to win games in dramatic fashion in the 9th inning. Eventually the well will dry up and they'll return to being a normal baseball team. And what better time for that to happen than with a season-long relief pitcher like Josh Fogg? Fogg hasn't started a game all season, but has thrown out of the bullpen since May 25th and that seems to be the best role for him.

If you look at his career (with Pittsburgh and Cincinnati and Colorado), not one time this decade has his season ERA been below 4.35 and, in fact, he's struggled more recently than he did early in his career. Last season, Fogg's ERA was 7.58... the season before it was 5.00. Bottom line: Fogg is lucky to still have a job, and going from the bullpen to the rotation in a game like this doesn't make a lot of sense to me. His career vs. Los Angeles (3-5, 4.38 ERA) has been decent, I guess, but nothing that scares me into taking the Rockies just because they are hot. The Dodgers have hit .288 vs. Fogg in 10 career starts and look to carry that over to tonight.

Randy Wolf starts for the Dodgers, bringing in a 3.34 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP, not to mention a 4-2 career record against the Rockies. Wolf has won his last three starts while the Dodgers were winners in his last four, not to mention his strikeout total has gotten better (15 in last two games). Wolf is also know to be a better, more dominant pitcher on the road (2.91 ERA) and loves to pitch under pressure. Folks, it doesn't get any more pressure-packed than this. If the Dodgers win, they go back up 3 games in the West. Lose and you are in danger of falling into a first place tie. Dodgers pull this one out with timely hitting and better starting pitching.
