Washington is a large pitcher friendly park, which is obvious when you see that the Nationals have the second worst offense in the National League. For this game, two pitchers who know how to throw strikes take the mound. NY righty Pedro Martinez has just 33 walks in 91 innings. He also loves facing this light-hitting Washington lineup, at 5-2 in his career against them with a 2.40 ERA. Washington lefty John Lannan is not bad and has allowed fewer hits than innings pitched. NY is off two low scoring tilts, 5-0 and 3-2, against the Braves and now heads to Washington. The Mets are going to use their best relievers, if needed, as they are in a heated pennant race. The Mets limited the damage to their NL East lead on a day when Philadelphia beat Milwaukee. Manager Jerry Manuel's club now leads the Phillies by 2.5 games with 14 to play. Don't look for a lot of offense in this park with these veteran hurlers.

Play the Mets/Nationals under the total.

MLB 4* UNDER 9 runs in Cleveland vs Minnesota @ 7:05 PM ET - Lewis vs Slowey

We have been getting a lot of mileage out of Kevin Slowey all season. We cashed at easy 5* ticket with Scott Lewis in his first Major League start last week. And on a cool and damp night in Cleveland with the wind aiding the pitchers, we can get behind both of the again here. Slowey?s ability to pound the strike zone makes him an ideal Under candidate ? big innings are difficult to come by against him. And as he grows in confidence the numbers are becoming amazing ? over his last seven starts it is a count of 42 strikeouts vs. only three walks allowed. We can count on him to keep that form going here, and with yesterday?s blowout loss at Minnesota bringing all Twin bullpen arms rested and ready, the bridge to Joe Nathan can be built. We detailed the background of Lewis prior to turning a 5* ticket behind him at Baltimore last week, and he was just as advertised, shutting the Orioles out over eight innings, allowing only three hits and not walking a batter. He has been outstanding at every level of the Minor Leagues, and we can only imagine how special pitching from this mound will be for an Ohio-born player that also played his college ball at Ohio State. And with that big road win under his belt, he is much easier able to handle the battle of nerves that can come with this setting, He also gets the break of facing a Minnesota lineup that has struggled against left-handers, and that means a chance for him to go out and set his tempo from the start.

2* Minnesota at Cleveland

Cheap number here when you consider that Cleveland starter Jensen Lewis will be making his major league starting debut. Normally a one inning relief pitcher Lewis will be on a strict pitch count. That means an early call to the bullpen which has been a major Tribe problem all season. Coming off three games in the past two days where Cleveland allowed 29 combined runs to a weak Kansas City lineup, the early bullpen call isn't something Cleveland fans cherish.

Minnesota sends their hottest starter Kevin Slowey to the hill. They have won 12 of his last 16 starts and one of those losses came against these Indians. We watched that game and Slowey was one pitch away from getting out of trouble. You can be sure the youngster has been waiting for this opportunity to avenge the defeat.

With Minnesota in the thick of the playoff race and the Tribe long out of contention we will back the better team with the proven starter at a cheap price.

PLAY MINNESOTA

PICK: San Francisco Giants + 156

3* SAN FRANCISCO over ARIZONA

The hottest race in the N.L. West is not for first place, but rather for second – while the Diamondbacks have lost their confidence and have no real chance of catching the surging Dodgers, these Giants are now as close to second (4.5) games as Arizona is to first, and bring much more adrenaline to the table these days. So with a chance to move a step closer to what would be a reward for a team that has had no special aspirations, we get a bargain price to back the unsung side.

The Giants are on runs of three straight wins and 8-1 in their last nine games. It has been a combination of the veterans in the lineup never quitting on the season, particularly a hot Randy Winn at the top of the order (a sizzling. 406 since August 3rd), while many of those young faces have stepped up and produced - .375 from Nate Schierholtz, .333 from Scott McClain, .330 from Pablo Sandoval and .328 from Travis Ishikawa, with that quartet also combining for nine home runs, 36 rbi’s and 46 runs scored. And with Brad Hennessey auditioning for a spot in next year’s rotation, his sense of purpose will be high.

Contrast this with an Arizona lineup that gets the role of big favorite despite being one of the worst in the Major Leagues right now. That is a serious statement. Without Connor Jackson (.294, 12 homers and 72 rbi’s) and Stephen Drew (.281-17-58), on top of already losing Orlando Hudson for the season, they fielded a staring eight on Sunday that closed the game with only Justin Upton hitting better than .250, and he had to go 4-5 in that game to get to his uninspiring .256. There is also nothing special at all about Doug Davis on the mound, particularly with the Giants getting a quick second look after facing him at home last Tuesday, and in 10.1 innings head-to-head this season they have reached him for eight runs on 15 hits. The inability of Davis to eat innings (only 57 frames in 11 starts since the All Star break) also means plenty of work for a Diamondback bullpen that is struggling every bit as badly as the offense.

Forget about the notion of Arizona as a pennant contender, and instead focus on the true realities – the D’Backs are 4-15 in their last 19 games, reaching their low point under .500 for the entire season. The weight of high expectations has turned them inside-out, and the current lineup at hand is simply not good enough to merit anything near this price range.

RANDALL the HANDLE

Philadelphia @ Dallas
The Cowboys were nearly flawless in their dismantling of the Browns last week but this is a different animal. The Eagles are a sound club and are feeling very confident after seeing some signs that their perennial deficiency, competent receivers, may be resolved. Philadelphia will not be intimidated here as past two visits has seen Dallas held to 7 and 6 points respectively. In addition, the Eagles are a lucrative underdog having covered 9 of past 11 when handed points.

Philadelphia +7

Sixth Sense Sports

DALLAS –6.5 Philadelphia 46.5

Both teams looked great last week. Dallas averaged 7.7yppl, including 5.4ypr and 10.0yps. They allowed Cleveland just 4.8yppl, including just 4.6yps. Philly racked up 7.4yppl, including 10.6yps and allowed the Rams just 3.7yppl, 2.4ypr and 4.3yps. Philly has dominated Dallas in Dallas winning the last two years here and six of the past eight years. One of those two losses was by just two points so getting 6.5 points in this game looks like a lot with a good Philly defense. I don’t have any situations on this game and my numbers favor Dallas by about six points and predict about 45 points.

DALLAS 26 PHILADELPHIA 20

Al DeMarco

Monday's Pick
30 Dime - Eagles

I had both the Eagles and Cowboys as free pick winners in Week One. True, it can be said Philadelphia had the much easier time of it, playing at home against an overmatched foe in St. Louis while Dallas visited the Browns, who did win 10 games a year ago. But the thing that struck me the most was how effortlessly the Eagles rolled over the Rams.

This is a different Philadelphia team than we've seen the past couple of years. First, Dononvan McNabb is the healthiest he's been in three seasons. Second, he's finally got a game-breaking receiver with speed - his first since T.O. left town - in rookie DeSean Jackson, who had 6 catches for 106 yards versus St. Louis in addition to a 60-yard punt return. Throw in a healthy Brian Westbrook, who has always been tough on the Cowboys, and you've got an offense that has quick-strike potential, and a unit that amassed 522 yards versus the Rams.

Defensively, the Birds are better as well as they've added depth to their line plus gotten younger and more athletic at linebacker, a position that was a sore spot just two seasons ago. Plus, the signing of free agent Asante Samuel only bolsters one of the league's best secondaries. His arrival means Lito Sheppard, who held T.O. to two catches in Philadelphia's upset win at Dallas last season, is now the team's nickel back and a dangerous cover man off the bench.

Not to discount the Cowboys at all as they're a talented offensive team with Romo (24-for-32, 320 yards) coming off a big game against a pathetic Cleveland secondary, but now he will be facing a stiff challenge with Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Johnson's variety of blitz packages from all angles. And Romo has shown that if he's hit, he is turnover prone and his production can be affected.

The Eagles have covered three of the last four in the series overall plus picked up the cash in three of their last four visits to Dallas. The Monday night lights have not bothered them either as they're 11-6 SU and ATS in such prime-time outings under Andy Reid, including 6-2 when getting points. On the other hand, Dallas has covered just once in seven Monday night outings since Wade Phillips took over and the Cowboys are 5-10 ATS as a MNF home chalk since 1980.

From the moment the first line was posted on this game I thought the Cowboys were overpriced; I was stunned to see them laying a touchdown in what I thought was going to be a three-or-four point game. Who wins is inconsequential; this line is too big and I'm grabbing the Eagles with the points. It was my favorite game on the board this week and thus my biggest play in terms of a rating and wager as well.

VEGAS EXPERTS

Boston Red Sox at Tampa Bay Rays
Monday, September 15th, 7:05 PM ET

Dice-K is unbeaten in 11 road starts this season and carries in a sterling 21-5 overall team start record. However, the Rays' Scott Kazmir has nearly matched him with a 18-6 TSR on the year, including 14-2 in night games. Boston is just 1-9 in domes this season and most of that damage has been done here in Tampa where they are 0-6. The Red Sox are just 6-14 this year in league play against pitchers with a 3.20 ERA or better.

Play on: Tampa Bay

THE SPORTS ADVISORS

NFL

Philadelphia (1-0 SU and ATS) at Dallas (1-0 SU and ATS)

A matchup between bitter NFC East rivals caps Week 2 of the NFL season, as the Eagles visit Texas Stadium for a prime-time battle with the Cowboys.
Philadelphia throttled the Rams in its season-opener, rolling 38-3 as a 9?-point home favorite, rolling up 526 total yards (414 passing) and 28 first downs while limiting St. Louis to 218 yards and eight first downs. QB Donovan McNabb looked in midseason form, completing 21 of 33 passes for 361 yards with three TDs and no interceptions as the Eagles won their fourth straight regular-season game (3-1 ATS) dating to last December.
Dallas was just as impressive as Philly in Week 1, hammering the Browns 28-10 and easily cashing as a six-point road favorite to halt an 0-5 ATS slide in regular-season and playoff games. Tony Romo (24-for-32, 320 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT) was sharp, and the Cowboys amassed 487 total yards while holding the Browns to 205.
Dallas crushed the Eagles 38-17 as a three-point road favorite in last year?s first meeting, but the Philadelphia turned the tables late in the season with a 10-6 upset victory in Dallas as a 10-point underdog. In fact, the Eagles are 3-1 SU and ATS in their last four visits to Texas Stadium, including back-to-back outright upsets the last two years. Going back further, Andy Reid?s team has covered the number in nine of its last 12 trips to Dallas.
Also in this rivalry, the underdog is on a 6-1 ATS roll, and the visitor is 4-1 ATS in the last five.
Philadelphia has thrived in the underdog roll going back to 2006, cashing in eight of its last 10 as a pup, including going 4-1 ATS as a ?dog last season. Also, the Eagles have cashed in six consecutive road games, and they?re 19-8 ATS in their last 27 as a road pup.
Dallas has covered in six consecutive September contests and five of its last six Week 2 affairs. On the flip side, Wade Phillips? squad is mired in ATS funks of 0-4 against the NFC East, 0-5 versus the NFC and 1-4 on Monday nights. In fact, the Cowboys are only 9-17 ATS (14-12 SU) all-time in Monday night games at Texas Stadium.
The straight-up winner went 12-1-1 ATS in Sunday?s 14 contests and is now 27-2-1 ATS through the first two weeks of the season.
For the Eagles, the under is on streaks of 4-1 overall, 4-1 in September, 6-2 versus the NFC East and 13-5-2 on Monday night. The under is also 5-0 in Dallas? last five overall, but otherwise the Cowboys are on over streaks of 6-2-1 on Monday nights, 5-2-1 in September and 6-1 following a spread-cover. Finally, the under is 3-0 in the last three series meetings at Texas Stadium.

ATS ADVANTAGE: PHILADELPHIA

POWER INDEX

Dallas -7 over Philadelphia* (Monday)

Both teams came out firing last week in big wins. So, which team will produce a 2nd strong game here? We prefer the Cowboys due to outstanding offensive performance. Can McNabb match the Boys TD for TD? We will lay the 7 with the home team.

Dallas QB Tony Romo doesn't have good history against the Eagles at home as he has thrown only 1 TD and 5 INT's in his last two such outings against the Birds. The Eagles are also a great bet as an underdog under Andy Reid as they are 41-21-2 ATS in that role. This will be a close game and should go right down to the wire. THE PICK: Philadelphia Eagles +7

Game: Baseball 75% System
Pick: Tigers/Rangers UNDER 12

"1 UNIT" BASEBALL SYSTEM TOTAL (Tigers at Rangers UNDER 12 in a 8:05 eastern start-------Willis versus McCarthy):

Tonight marks the first time since the beginning of June that Dontrelle Willis is pitching at the major league level. The Tigers were a popular pick to run away with the American League Central Division, but this season has turned into a disaster due to a severe lack of pitching. Willis has been one of Detroit's many pitching woes as he allowed 13 runs in 11.1 innings after coming to Motown in a big offseason trade with Florida. The biggest problem for Willis early in the season was control as he issued 21 walks as opposed to just 6 strikeouts. Even though Willis was sent to the Class-A minor league level to get his act together, the bottom line is that his ROAD ERA (2.25) as not all that bad. Tonight's total is highly inflated to account for both Willis and a dynamic Texas offense that statistically has been near the top of the American League all season. But here is an interesting 75-PERCENT SYSTEM (43-14 past decade) that takes ROAD teams like Detroit who have lost 4 times in a 5-game span UNDER a "double digit" posted total, in a game involving a pair of marginal losing team who are just below the .500 mark. Bingo!

Tonight a total play, as I see Philly and Dallas strapping it on for a tight one in Big "D".
I know both teams generated some offense last week, but upon closer look, it ain't too hard to get the points on the board against Cleveland, and St. Louis.
The G-Man expects the yards, and the points to be harder to come by in this division rivalry contest.
Remember, the Cowboys defense yielded just 6 points in their win at Cleveland, while the Eagles held St. Louis to only a field goal in their blowout win.
Last year the series meeting in Dallas produced a 10-6 final, making it 3 straight games played at Dallas between the teams that have stayed LOW.
Included last week's results, the Cowboys have stayed UNDER the total in 5 in a row dating back to last season (playoffs included), while the Eagles have stayed UNDER in 4 of their last 5 dating back to a season ago.
Stick with the defense here, and play the LOW.

1♦ UNDER

MARC LAWRENCE PLAYBOOK

DALLAS over Philadelphia by 7
Impressive outings by both teams puts this game in the national spotlight,
under the Monday Night lights to boot. Good numbers abound for both
sides, too. The Eagles are 11-6 SU and ATS on Mondays behind Andy Reid,
including 7-0 SU and ATS when playing off a win of 7 or more points. They are
also 19-12 SU and 21-10 ATS on the division road under Andy. The Cowboys
counter at 17-11 ATS in Monday night division duels, including 9-3 in Games
1 thru 3. Wade Phillips chips in at 12-3 SU and ATS at home off a win versus
an opponent off a win, including 6-1 in division games. His 1-6 ATS mark in
Monday night games is the only negative note.

SPORTS REPORTER

MONDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 15
*DALLAS over PHILADELPHIA by 4
The early gauntlet was thrown down when Philly won by 35 points, Dallas by 18 on opening
day. Tony Romo got banged around by Cleveland?s pass rush, which wasn?t very good last
year, and Philly will get in his face, too. Important, new speedy offensive playmakers on both
teams this season. Felix Jones on Dallas, DeSean Jackson on the Eagles. The Cowboys got
a lead and padded it on the ground last week against that statue of a Cleveland quarterback
who their new defensive assistant Grantham knew he could rattle, hence the Best Bet winner
on the Cowboys. But the Dallas D can?t be as confidently prepared vs. McNabb,
Westbrook and the rest. Let the shootout start. DALLAS, 30-26.

INDIAN COWBOY


Cowboys/Eagles Under 47 (1 unit)

Cowboys play their nemesis in the Eagles today. The spread opened up at -7 and has remained relatively steady as it has gone down slightly as the public are favoring the Cowboys to a tune of 55% today. The Cowboys and Eagles split the season series last year at 1:1 but the most recent game featured Dallas getting beat home by the Eagles in what was a defensive 6-10 battle. The Cowboys were dominant easily covering the 6 point road chalk against Cleveland and give Philly some credit for pounding the Rams by 35 points at home easily covering the 9 point chalk. Frankly, this game could go either way, but note I love the Eagles defense this year as I do the Cowboys. However, I think the Eagles are still more physical, but of course, when it comes to offense the Cowboys have given Romo far more weapons and frankly, the Cowboys running game is much better than it was last year and you will see that throughout this game. In essence, you will see a balanced running and passing attack. However, in an NFC East battle such as this 7 points is quite a lot and I know I normally favor the dog and the over here, but not in this game. McNabb has a QB rating of 130+ here and Romo with over a 106 rating. I actually lean on the Eagles and the Under here but do note that I do not have a play on this game, and will have wnba selections, college and nfl to come later this week. However, in such a rivalry, with the total being 46.5 and the public favoring the over by a 2:1 margin, don't be surprised to see an under shape up here. No play for me, but my free play will be on the under here as the under is 12-2 for the Eagles after scoring 30 points in their previous game and the under is 4-0 for the Cowboys when playing the tough defenses that the NFC East features.

Game: Detroit Tigers at Texas Rangers Sep 15 2008 8:05PM
Prediction: over

Reason: Detroit has played over the total in 5 of their last 8 games. Willis is back on the mound for the Tigers tonight and he's been horrible for quite some time. This season he's 0-1 with a 10.32 ERA. Over his last 3 starts his ERA is 15.19. The over is 6-1 in the Rangers last 7 games to open a series. In their last 41 games vs. AL Central opponents the over is 29-11-1. The over is 10-4-1 in teh Rangers last 15 games vs. a left-handed starter. In the last 6 meetings between the clubs, the over is 4-1-1. Play the over.

HONDO

September 15, 2008

Hondo proved to be no No-Stro-damas last night as the Astros were held hitless by Zambrano, leaving him with 625 carbos loaded into his account. And don't worry, Mr. Aitch won't dwell on the two curveballs thrown at him by yesterday's "probable pitchers:" 1) That Marquis was pitching for the Cubs; and, 2) That the game was being played in Houston, not Milwaukee.

Tonight, His Aitchness will roll the dice with the Rays - 10 units on Kazmir to snuff the Sawx.

At 70-78, the Tigers are one of MLB's biggest "flops" in 2008. Dontrelle Willis, who signed a three-year deal with Detroit before the season, just could be "pitching for his future" with the Tigers (maybe his baseball future as well?). This will be just his fifth start of the season, as he's 0-1 with a 10.32 ERA in his four previous starts (11.1 IP / 7 hits / 22 walks / 7 ERs). All this from a pitcher who was NL rookie of the year in '03 (14-6) and won 22 games in '05 while with the Marlins. He injured his knee during his second start this season and was placed on the DL in mid-April. He was activated on May 21 but was sent down to the minors in June, after allowing eight ERs while walking five in 1.1 innings of an 8-2 loss to Cleveland on June 9. One thing the Rangers can do is hit. They own a .280 team batting average (2nd-best in MLB) and are averaging 5.46 RPG, making them MLB's highest scoring team. Brandon McCarthy (1-1, 4.22 ERA) starts for Texas and he will be making his fifth start since missing 4 1/2 months because of an arm injury to begin the '08 season. He pitched poorly in his last outing (5.1 IP / 7 hits / 6 ERs) but in his first three starts back off the injury, his ERA was an impressive 2.57 (14 IP / 4 ERs). The left-handed Willis will face a Texas team which has averaged 6.6 RPG in home night games, while the right-handed McCarthy will face a Detroit team which is 19-33 on the road vs righties in '08. Take the Rangers.

Neither of these pitchers has done a very good job of keeping runners off base. Davies has a 1.627 WHIP at home. Silva has a 1.633 WHIP (6.86 ERA!) on the road. Silva's been at his worst lately too, going 0-2 with a 12.21 ERA and 2.50 WHIP his last three outings. The last two of those games both went over the total, finishing with scores of 9-3 and 12-6. Consider the OVER
