Cincinnati at Arizona
Play: Cincinnati
The Arizona Diamond Backs and Cincinnati Reds complete a three game set that has the markings of Arizona being Snake-Bitten rather than Cincinnati.
An inability to make consistent contact Diamond Backs sport the lowest batting average (.235) in the Majors and are near the bottom in runs scored (126).
Manufacturing just 2.2 run/game D'Backs bat-to-ball coordination isn't about to improve swinging away at Reds Johnny Cueto (3-1, 1.59 ERA) offerings. The righty off four consecutive quality starts allowing just two runs over 29 innings of work is sure to hand-cuff the desert snakes.
Consider a 'Play-Against' the National League West basement dwellers knowing Reds were 2-0 last season vs D'Backs w/Cueto and that D'Backs are 3-8 (-$663) in the host roll crossing just 2.8 over home plate facing a quality starter (=>6 Inn).

San Diego Padres at Chicago Cubs
Prediction: Chicago Cubs
The Cubs are 9-0 when Ted Lilly starts after going at least 6 innings and giving up 6 or fewer hits on the road in his last start and the Padres are 0-6 THIS season when they came back from a deficit to win in their starter's last start. With the Cubs a relentless and reliable 14-0 as a favorite of more than 140 vs a team that has lost their last four games, the price is the way to go and the run-line should be considered as well.

San Diego +145 at CHICAGO CUBS
Today's FREE winner for you comes from the diamond as we go with the Padres in Chicago taking on the Cubs.
There's some good value taking the Padres tonight in Chicago and we'll gladly grab the plus-money with San Diego and righty Chris Young (2-1, 4.76 ERA) against the Cubs.
Young gave up three runs on five hits in six innings of a 4-3, 10-inning loss to the D'Backs on Thursday and he is 1-0 with a 2.28 ERA in four starts in his career against the Cubs.
The Padres fell to the Cubs 6-2 on Tuesday but they got a two-run homer from Adrian Gonzalez who has homered in each of his last two games and is red-hot this season.
For Chicago, it's Ted Lilly (4-2, 3.11 ERA) on the mound today at Wrigley, where he is 18-11 with a 3.79 ERA in 37 career starts in front of the home fans. If Lilly gives up four runs to the Padres tonight, he's going to lose, because Young is going to deliver a gem.
Play the Padres tonight as they pull off a 6-3 victory.

Denver Nuggets -8.5
Well, we predicted that the Denver Nuggets would beat the Dallas Mavericks in five games before this series started, and we look for that forecast to come to its fruition tonight in emphatic fashion.
The Nuggets are playing the best basketball in the NBA since early March, and they have been downright invincible here at home. In fact, the Nuggets are 21-5 straight up since March 10, including 15-0 SU at home where they won those games by an incredible average of +15.3 points.
This amazing home run has continued in the playoffs, where they won their three home games vs. the New Orleans Hornets by 29, 15 and 21 points respectively, and they won the first two games of this Dallas series here by 14 and 12 points. Furthermore, Game 2 was not a 12-point game in reality as the Mavericks cut into a huge deficit in garbage time.
Dallas took advantage of an aging San Antonio Spurs team without probably the best sixth man in the NBA in Manu Ginobili in the first round, but they seem outclassed in this series, especially in the games in Denver. Yes, they overcame a 14-point deficit in Game 4 to avoid getting swept, but that was at home and they will not be able to come back if they face a similar deficit tonight, which seems inevitable given the recent Denver home play.
Look for the Nuggets to wrap up this series with a big double-digit victory.
Pick: Nuggets -8.5

1 Unit on Kansas City Royals +107
After 4 straight losses, I expect the Royals to finally get back in the win column tonight behind Brian Bannister, who enter the game at 3-0 with an ERA of 1.48. He has the decisive edge against winless southpaw Josh Outman, especially when you consider that the Royals are 8-3 in their last 11 road games vs. a left-handed starter. The Royals are 6-1 in the last 7 meetings in this series, 5-0 in Bannister's last 5 starts, and 4-0 in Bannister's last 4 starts as an underdog. I'm on the Royals tonight.

Dallas Mavericks at Denver Nuggets
Roy Halladay will get a chance to face former rotation mate AJ Burnett as the Toronto Blue Jays host the Yankees. Halladay is off to another great start this year as he has a 6-1 TSR and a 3.29 ERA. He has had his way with the Yankees as he has a 15-5 record with a 2.83 ERA. He has also been outstanding in the month of May as he has a 33-12 TSR in his career. Burnett has been roughed up in his last three starts as he has allowed 15 earned runs in 18 innings. The Blue Jays are 11-4 at home this year and are a safe bet here.
