09-25-16 | Cardinals v. Cubs -160 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 33 m | Show |
50* graded play on the Chicago Cubs as they take on the St. Louis Cardinals in NL Central action set to start at 8:05 PM ET. SIM algorithm shows a high probability that the Cubs will win this game. I like taking advantage of the -2 ½ run line in these situations, which offers a very nice return normally at 2:1 line or higher. So, make this a 38* play using the money line and then a 12* play using the -2 ½ Run Line. If you do not have access to that line, then consider making a 42* play using the money line and a 8* play using the Run Line, which will be near even money risk. Technical Discussion PointsThe following game situations match the SIM projections and my compiled research for the outcome of this game. Cubs are a solid 26-7 (+11.8 Units) against the money line in home games vs. a good bullpen whose ERA is 3.75 or better this season; 31-10 (+13.2 Units) against the money line in home games vs. a good bullpen whose WHIP is 1.350 or better this season. Cardinals are a miserable 9-17 (-13.7 Units) against the money line after 6 or more consecutive road games this season. Fundamental Discussion Points Jon Lester is in peak form posting a 0.41 ERA with a 0.773 WHIP winning his last three starts, walking 1 batter and striking out 20 batters. He is 18-4  in 30 starts with a 2.36 ERA and a 1.010 WHIP spanning 191 innings and certainly in Cy Young discussions. |

25* graded play on San Diego as they take on San Francisco in NL West action set to start at 8:40 PM ET. SIM algorithm shows a high probability that San Diego will win this game. Technical Discussion Points Supporting this graded play is a proven system posting a 29-26 since 1997 good for 52.7% winners and made 33.5 units/unit wagered. Play on all underdogs with a money line of +175 to +250 (SAN DIEGO) - poor hitting team (AVG under .250) against a very good starting pitcher (ERA under 3.00) -NL, with a cold starting pitcher- ERA 7.00 or more over his last 3 starts. The following game situations match the SIM projections and my compiled research for the outcome of this game. San Francisco is 5-12 (-18.9 Units) against the money line vs. an NL team with a batting average of .245 or worse in the second half of the season this season; 10-17 (-14.9 Units) against the money line vs. teams averaging 2.75 or less extra base hits per game in the second half of the season this season; 8-15 (-18.9 Units) against the money line vs. an NL team with an on base percentage .315 or worse in the second half of the season this season; 31-41 (-24.4 Units) against the money line in the second half of the season this season. Bumgarner's team's record is 2-9 (-14.6 Units) against the money line vs teams who strand 6.9 or less runners on base per game in the second half of the season this season.San Diego is 14-10 (+7.9 Units) against the money line when playing on Saturday this season. Giants are 1-4 in their last 5 after scoring 2 runs or less in their previous game. Giants are 1-4 in their last 5 during game 3 of a series. Giants are 1-4 in their last 5 when their opponent allows 2 runs or less in their previous game. Giants are 1-4 in their last 5 vs. a team with a losing record. Giants are 2-9 in their last 11 when their opponent scores 5 runs or more in their previous game. Giants are 0-4 in their last 4 games vs. a right-handed starter. Giants are 1-4 in Bumgarner's last 5 starts vs. National League West. Padres are 4-1 in their last 5 vs. a team with a winning record. Fundamental Discussion Points Padres have won seven of their last eight games against the Giants. Bumgarner is just 4-5 with a 3.55 ERA since the All-Star break and has dropped his last two starts against lowly San Diego. Posey is a poor 1-for-11 over the past three games. San Diego 2B Carlos Asuaje had his first two major league hits and scored twice Friday.

Play against road teams with a money line of -100 to -150 (SEATTLE) - with a hot starting pitcher- WHIP under 1.000 over his last 3 starts, with a slugging percentage of .370 or worse over their last 10 games. The following game situations match the SIM projections and my compiled research for the outcome of this game. Seattle is 12-20 (-13.8 Units) against the money line vs. a poor bullpen whose ERA is 4.50 or worse this season and they are 148-154 (-26.2 Units) against the money line in games played on a grass field over the last 2 seasons. Duffey's team's record is 8-1 (+9.1 Units) against the money line vs. an AL team with a batting average of .260 or worse in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons and they are 11-3 (+10.8 Units) against the money line vs. an AL team with a batting average of .265 or worse in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons.

Twins are 5-1 in Duffey's last 6 Saturday starts. Fundamental Discussion Points Seattle was swept by the Twins in late May. Duffey, who never has opposed the Mariners, will try to rediscover the form that allowed him to go 3-0 with a 3.79 ERA over his first three starts in August. With a victory on Saturday or Sunday, Seattle will earn its first series win against the Twins since the start of the 2013 season (0-5-2). The Twins won't be a 100 loss team yet, nor lose the series on Saturday. Take Minnesota Twins. |

Boston is 100-87 (-21.8 Units) against the money line as a favorite of -110 or higher over the last 2 seasons. Red Sox are 3-7 in Porcello's last 10 starts after scoring 2 runs or less in their previous game.

Even the best of pitchers tend to perform poorly their next start after a complete game outing. Corey Dickerson is 5-for-16 with three doubles and a homer versus Porcello. Andriese has won his last two starts while allowing three runs over 10 1/3 innings combined. Tampa Bay INF Brad Miller has hit 22 homers at home this season, one shy of Carlos Pena’s club record in 2007.  The Rays did win the season series the last two years.

35* graded play on Baltimore as they take on Washington in MLB inter-league action set to start at 7:05 PM ET. SIM algorithm shows a reasonable probability that Baltimore will win this game. With a current line at +220 and analyzing early betting flows, I feel confident that this line will move towards +200 and perhaps even lower. So, as is always the case, the line does not ever disqualify a play, but I would recommend betting this one at your earliest convenience.

50* graded play on Milwaukee as they take on Colorado in NL action set to start at 7:20 PM ET. SIM algorithm shows a high probability that Milwaukee will win this game. Given this 50* grading, I like making these into combination wagers using the -1 ½ run and the 2 ½ run line if available. So, if you have access to the – 2 ½ line, the model shows that making a 30* play on the money line, a 12* play using the -1 ½ run line and an 8* wager using the -2 ½ run line will produce the optimized ROI for a 50* play. If you only have the -1 ½ run line, then wager a 38* play using the ML and a 12* play using the -1 ½ Run Line. Technical Discussion PointsSupporting this graded play is a proven system posting a 96-36 mark good for 73% winners and has made 46 units/unit wagered since 2010. Play on NL home favorites with a money line of -110 or higher with a team slugging percentage .390 or worse on the season and is now facing an opponent with a team slugging percentage of .430 or better on the season. The following game situations match the SIM projections and my compiled research for the outcome of this game. Colorado is just 11-20 (-13.7 Units) against the money line vs. a decent bullpen whose WHIP is 1.350 to 1.450 this season; 17-48 (-24.3 Units) against the money line in road games facing an NL team with a batting average of .255 or worse in the second half of the season over the last 3 seasons; 29-72 (-29.8 Units) against the money line in road games in the second half of the season over the last 3 seasons. Fundamental Discussion Points Colorado is a team that uses a lot of pitchers in nearly every game mainly because of their lack of starting pitching depth. They hit very well at Coors field, but are batting just 0.245 and scoring 4.3 RPG in 61 road games. Milwaukee had lost 10 of their last 13 games until winning at Seattle 7-6 yesterday scoring 4 runs in the top of the 9th. That last inning certainly will carry over to this home game. Over his last three starts Chad Bettis has averaged just 4 2/3 innings per start and has posted a 6.43 ERA and a 1.929 WHIP in just 14 innings of work. Nelson has not been in good form either, HOWEVER, he has posted a nice 3.24 ERA with a 1.327 WHIP in 13 home starts this season. Colorado has never faced Nelson. Scouting reports can provide ample intelligence about any pitcher in MLB, but then facing that pitcher can often times be a completely different event. Nelson has an excellent FB that averages 94 MPH and that has very good late sinking action. He will use a slider and a curve as setup pitches and relies on his FB and two seem FB for getting GB outs. His curve though is thrown hard and can have slider deception to it where batters swing over the top of that pitch. Even with his curve averaging 85 MPH, his FB then looks like 96 MPH when thrown after the curve. |

Play against road teams with a money line of -100 to -150 (NY YANKEES) - with a starting pitcher with good control (less than 1.75 BB's/start), with a struggling bullpen whose ERA is over 7.00 the last 5 games. The following game situations match the SIM projections and my compiled research for the outcome of this game. Los Angeles Angels are 29-12 (+13.2 Units) against the money line in home games vs. AL teams scoring 4.7 or less runs/game in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons; 71-42 (+26.0 Units) against the money line vs. an AL team with a batting average of .255 or worse in the second half of the season over the last 3 seasons; 12-3 (+10.0 Units) against the money line vs. teams whose hitters draw 3 walks or less/game in the second half of the season this season; Weaver's team's record is 28-5 (+19.0 Units) against the money line in home games vs. teams whose hitters draw 3 walks or less/game in the second half of the season in his career and they are 63-20 (+30.8 Units) against the money line in home games in the second half of the season in his career. New York Yankees are 26-35 (-19.1 Units) against the money line after 5 or more consecutive home games over the last 2 seasons. Yankees are 3-7 in their last 10 vs. a team with a losing record. Yankees are 1-4 in their last 5 road games vs. a right-handed starter. Yankees are 3-13 in their last 16 games following an off day. Yankees are 1-6 in their last 7 road games vs. a team with a losing record.

Angels are 4-0 in Weaver's last 4 starts after scoring 5 runs or more in their previous game. Fundamental Discussion Points Tanaka recently yielded at least four runs for the third time in four starts. He is 0-2 in his last three outings on the road, surrendering 18 runs — 13 earned — and 25 hits over 16 innings. Angels DH Albert Pujols is five RBIs away from reaching 100 for the 13th time. This is a contrarian pick which tend to yield the best income. Take LA Angels. |

25* graded play on Boston as they take on Detroit in AL action set to start at 7:10 PM ET. SIM algorithm shows a high probability that Boston will win this game. Technical Discussion Points Supporting this graded play is a proven system posting a 31-13 over the last 5 seasons good for 70.5% winners and made 23.6 units/unit wagered. Play against home teams with a money line of -100 to -150 (DETROIT) - average hitting team (AVG = .265 to .279) against a good starting pitcher (ERA under 4.20) -AL, with a hot starting pitcher- WHIP under 1.000 over his last 3 starts. The following game situations match the SIM projections and my compiled research for the outcome of this game. Detroit is 8-23 (-15.4 Units) against the money line vs. excellent defensive catchers - allowing less than 0.35 SB's/game this season and they are 29-47 (-20.5 Units) against the money line at home when the money line is +125 to -125 over the last 2 seasons. Boston is 21-11 (+9.6 Units) against the money line on the road when the total is 8.5 to 10 this season. Red Sox are 5-0 in their last 5 games vs. a right-handed starter. Red Sox are 7-1 in their last 8 Friday games. Red Sox are 6-1 in their last 7 overall. Red Sox are 4-0 in Porcello's last 4 starts during game 2 of a series. Red Sox are 6-1 in Porcello's last 7 starts with 4 days of rest. Red Sox are 5-1 in Porcello's last 6 starts vs. a team with a winning record.

Most shutouts are followed by terrible performances. Fulmer did not factor in the decision in his lone start versus Boston on July 27, giving up two homers and three runs over 7 2/3 innings. Porcello pitched seven strong innings -- his shortest outing in his last four starts -- last time out against Arizona, giving up one run on three hits to establish a career high in victories. Porcello is 8-1 over his last nine turns, recording eight quality starts in that span, and has lost only once since May 17. He made his only career start against his former team in July 2015, tossing seven innings of one-run ball in a no-decision. Take Boston Red Sox. |

Take Boston Red Sox. |

The 37-year-old has been heating up over his last seven games, recording three homers, seven RBIs and five runs scored. Kazmir looks to get back on track on the road, where he has won each of his last three starts to improve to 5-0 while limiting the opposition to a .207 batting average. Los Angeles LF Howie Kendrick is 14-for-25 with two homers, eight RBIs and six runs scored during his six-game hitting streak. Dodgers SS Corey Seager is riding a seven-game hitting streak.

Fundamental Discussion Points Happ takes a 10-0 record over his last 11 outings into his fourth start this season against New York, posting a 2-0 mark and 1.42 ERA in the previous three matchups. Ex-Yankees catcher Russell Martin burned his former teammates with a pair of homers while Edwin Encarnacion also went deep to push his major league-leading RBI total to 100. Happ is coming off yet another superb performance, blanking Tampa Bay on four hits over six innings to win his fourth consecutive start. During that span, he has permitted two runs and only 12 hits over 25 innings and, more impressively, has allowed one run or fewer seven times in his last 10 starts.

Pittsburgh is 22-13 (+14.0 Units) against the money line when playing against a good team (Win Pct. 54% to 62%) in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons; 38-17 (+21.8 Units) against the money line vs. good fielding teams - averaging less than 0.6 errors/game in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons; 38-22 (+20.8 Units) against the money line vs. NL teams allowing 4.3 or less runs/game in the second half of the season over the last 2 seasons; 46-17 (+29.5 Units) against the money line against NL West opponents over the last 2 seasons. Samardzija's team's record is 9-20 (-13.6 Units) against the money line vs. an NL team with an on base percentage .325 or worse over the last 3 seasons and they are 4-15 (-13.4 Units) against the money line at home with a money line of -100 to -125 in his career. Pirates are 4-0 in their last 4 when their opponent scores 5 runs or more in their previous game. Pirates are 4-1 in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning record. Pirates are 4-1 in their last 5 Tuesday games. Pirates are 4-0 in Taillon's last 4 starts after allowing 5 runs or more in their previous game. Pirates are 6-1 in Taillon's last 7 starts. Giants are 3-9 in their last 12 home games vs. a right-handed starter. Giants are 1-4 in their last 5 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. Giants are 1-5 in their last 6 when their opponent allows 5 runs or more in their previous game. Giants are 1-5 in their last 6 Tuesday games. Giants are 0-5 in their last 5 after scoring 5 runs or more in their previous game. Giants are 1-4 in Samardzija's last 5 starts. Fundamental Discussion Points Taillon was brilliant against San Diego on Thursday, scattering three hits over eight scoreless innings while walking two en route to victory. It marked the sixth straight outing in which the 24-year-old Floridian worked at least six frames and fourth time in that span the rookie allowed fewer than two runs. Samardzija surrendered at least four runs in seven of his previous eight outings, yielding five or more five times in that span. He escaped with a no-decision at Pittsburgh on June 22 after being tagged for six runs and six hits — three homers — in three innings. Pittsburgh has won six of Taillon's last seven starts. San Francisco's rotation has produced only eight quality starts in 28 games since the All-Star break. Take Pittsburgh Pirates. |

New York Mets are 23-26 (-18.3 Units) against the money line when playing against a team with a losing record this season; 16-19 (-15.5 Units) against the money line vs. NL teams allowing 4.8 or more runs/game on the season this season; 10-17 (-13.7 Units) against the money line against NL West opponents this season. Arizona is 22-14 (+8.4 Units) against the money line vs. an NL team with an on base percentage .315 or worse this season. Mets are 2-5 in their last 7 overall. Mets are 2-7 in their last 9 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400. Mets are 4-14 in their last 18 vs. National League West. Mets are 2-8 in their last 10 vs. a team with a losing record. Mets are 0-4 in Syndergaard's last 4 starts when their opponent allows 5 runs or more in their previous game. Diamondbacks are 4-0 in their last 4 vs. National League East. Diamondbacks are 4-0 in their last 4 when their opponent allows 5 runs or more in their previous game. Diamondbacks are 4-1 in their last 5 after scoring 5 runs or more in their previous game. Fundamental Discussion Points Arizona has knocked off New York four times in the last seven days and looks for another victory on Tuesday, when it hosts the Mets in the second contest of their three-game series. Arizona outscored the Mets 17-5 while sweeping three games in New York last week. Jay Bruce is just 8-for-50 for the Mets since being acquired from Cincinnati and has gone eight games without a homer. Syndergaard gave up three runs and eight hits over five innings. He is 0-4 during a six-start winless stretch despite allowing more than three runs on just one occasion. Shipley will look to duplicate the success he had against Syndergaard and the Mets on Thursday, when he scattered three hits over seven scoreless innings in a 9-0 victory. Arizona C Welington Castillo matched his career best with four hits on Monday in his first contest since Aug. 6 after being away from the team due to complications in the birth of his son. Take Arizona Diamondbacks. |
