LA Angels (EV) at TEXAS

Let’s take the Angels tonight for the road win over the Rangers.

Los Angels has won six in a row and will be trying for its second seven-game winning streak of the season.

Joe Saunders will start for the Halos and he’s 8-4 with a 3.66 ERA on the year. The left-hander is 2-0 with a 2.61 ERA in his last three starts.
The Rangers will counter with Scott Feldman, who hasn’t won since June 3. The right-hander is 0-2 with a 4.70 ERA in his last four starts, and 1-2 with a 6.18 ERA in five lifetime starts against the Angels.

Take the Angels as they grab the road win.

2? LA ANGELS

San Francisco Giants vs. St. Louis Cardinals

Play: St. Louis Cardinals -1

The Cardinals offense has struggled and it has been the main reason why the team has lost as of late. Last night it was their pitching and hitting as Lincecum blanked them for a 10-0 win. Tonight Randy Johnson will face Chris Carpenter on the hill.

We like the value we get here on the run line for our free pick. Johnson has struggled his last two times facing the Cardinals and the Cardinals as a team have a .289 average against him including 9-21 3HR .429 average for Albert Pujols. Johnson threw 102 pitches in his last outing and has a 5.25ERA on the road.
Carpenter will go for the Cardinals and as I said in our hot and cold starters article he should be well motivated at home after Lincecums performance last night. Giants hitters have a .210 average against Carpenter over his career and Carpenter has .43 ERA at home in 3GS.

Worth noting: The Cardinals have won 81.8% of their home games by more than one run. The Giants have lost 81.8% of their games by more than 1 run.


Take Cardinals -1.5

Arizona Diamondbacks at Cincinnati Reds

Prediction: Arizona Diamondbacks

The Dbacks have certainly had their fair share of issues with the Reds, losing 11 of 15, including five of six here in the Queen City. But things should change tonight with Dan Haren on the hill. Despite a 6-5 record in 15 starts, Haren boasts an ERA of 2.25. He has allowed two earned runs or less in each of six consecutive starts. Big pitching mismatch tonight against Arroyo, who has an 8.21 ERA over his last three starts. He?s only allowed two earned runs or less in six starts all season!

Take Arizona.

Tampa Bay Rays @ Toronto Blue Jays

PICK: Tampa Bay Rays

Around the middle of May (May 18 to be exact) the Blue Jays led the AL East by 3 1/2 games over the Red Sox, having opened the '09 season 27-14. Meanwhile, last year's AL champs (the Rays), were just 20-20. However, there's been a change of fortunes for both teams since, as the Blue Jays have gone 14-23 and the Rays 23-15. The Red Sox now lead the AL East at 47-29 with the Yankees in second at 43-32. The Rays are up to 43-35 (1 1/2 games behind the Yanks), while the Jays have fallen into fourth place (41-37), two games behind the Rays. Last night's 4-1 win over the Blue Jays and Roy Halladay (just his second loss of 2009), ups Tampa Bay's recent run to 14-4. The Rays are batting .304 as a team during their recent surge and also have 38 HRs in June, which matches a team record for HRs in a month that was set in August of 2005 and matched last August. Matt Garza goes for the Rays and while he's just 5-5 in 15 starts (team is 7-8), he's pitched much better than his record. He's got a solid ERA of 3.61 and has allowed just 74 hits over 97.1 innings with 85 strikeouts. The Blue Jays have lost three straight after last night and will turn to Scott Richmond to avoid a fourth consecutive loss. Richmond opened the '09 season 4-0 with a 2.67 ERA in his first five starts (team was 5-0) but in 10 appearances since (seven starts), is 2-4 with a 4.31 ERA (team is 3-4 in his starts). The Rays are averaging 5.62 RPG this season (5.38 on the road) and while Garza is just 3-3 all-time vs the Blue Jays, he's got a 1.99 ERA.

Take the Rays.

Philadelphia Phillies at Atlanta Braves

Prediction: Philadelphia Phillies

IMO, the wrong team is favored here. The Phillies are playing .700 ball on the road at 26-12 and tonight's starter Joe Blanton sports an ERA below 3.00 in his L6 starts. Derek Lowe was battered senseless in his three IL starts against the AL East going 0-3 (12.35) in three starts against the Balt, BOS, and NYY allowing a whopping 26 hits and 7 walks in 11 and 2/3 work. The Phils are 14-4 in L18 at Turner Field and appear to have much of the best of the pitching here.

Give me the live dog Phillies.
