Hondo
The Cubs added to the Metamucils' misery out at the Lame Duck Dump last night, which enabled Hondo to increase his collection of disposable dead presidents to a delightful 700 ditmars.
Tonight, he'll double dip with Moose and Lee -10 units apiece on the Yankees and Indians.

Dave Cokin
(959) CIN Reds
(960) HOU Astros
Take "(959) CIN Reds"
Edinson Volquez has had a great season and while he hasn't been as dominant since the break as he was in the early portion of the campaign, he's still very tough. Wandy Rodriguez is less than 100% physically and doesn't figure to go more than five or six innings here. The 'Stros are still alive but I see them taking a crucial loss tonight. The Reds are the choice.

VEGAS EXPERTS
Cincinnati Reds at Houston Astros
Tuesday, September 23rd, 8:05 PM ET
Our hearts really go out to the Astros, whose incredible second-half rally came to an end with the onset of Hurricane Ike and the team's subsequent displacement. However, look for them to get a win tonight against an opponent they've dominated all season long. Only reason this line is where it it is because the Reds send Edinson Volquez to the hill, but Cincy has packed it in for the year, and he won't be enough to overcome the Reds 2-10 mark vs. Houston this year. Astros starter Wandy Rodriguez has actually been sharper than Volquez recently, posting a 0.66 ERA in his L3 starts.
Play on: Houston

Tue, 09/23/08 - 8:10 PMMatty O'Shea | MLB Money Line
triple-dime bet980 MIN (-135)BetUS vs 979 CWS
Analysis: White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen has used motivational tactics all season in an effort to get the most out of his players. However, I believe he may have made one critical mistake during the final week of the season in calling out starting pitcher Javier Vazquez for not being a big-game pitcher heading into a key three-game series against the Twins. Vazquez will pitch in the series opener on Tuesday and doesn't seem fazed by Guillen's comments. "I'm not looking to have to change minds if people feel that way," Vazquez said. "I won't be paying attention to that. If I do well or if I don't, I'll still go home at the end of my career and be the same person." Guillen has a valid point, but I think his comments will backfire on him in this spot. Vazquez is just 1-4 with a 5.68 ERA during his career at the Metrodome and 5-8 away from home this season with a 4.85 ERA. He got hammered in his last road start at Yankee Stadium on Thursday, surrendering seven runs and six hits in a season-low 3.2 innings on only three days of rest. The Twins are 5-1 vs. Chicago at home this year and will be sending Scott Baker to the mound. Baker is 3-1 in 10 home starts with a 3.28 ERA and got a no-decision in his last start against the White Sox back on July 31, resulting in an eventual 10-6 victory. Minnesota needs to win this game to have a shot at taking over first place with a sweep, so bet the Twins as my Triple Dime AL Game O' the Year.

Tue, 09/23/08 - 8:05 PMNick "BookieKiller" Parsons | MLB Money Line
double-dime bet978 TEX (-134)Bodog vs 977 OAK
Analysis:
TEXAS ? This is a huge series for the Rangers and A?s. On the surface, it may not seem like it because both Texas and Oakland have been eliminated from playoff contention. However, make no mistake about it, both of these teams are fully focused on finishing in second place in the AL West. Each team wants that spot and they know to make serious inroads toward it they need to take care of business in this series. Though I am typing up this analysis prior to the completion of Monday night?s game, I do know that no matter what happens in that game, the Rangers and Athletics will be separated by no more than a game and a half in the standings heading into Tuesday. Plus, if Oakland wins Monday?s game then they will only be separated by a half game in the standings. Either way, the rest of this series means a lot to each team and, in the case of Tuesday?s game, the Rangers have a big pitching edge. Oakland is handing the ball to Josh Outman for Tuesday night?s game. The left-hander just turned 24 about a week ago and he?s struggled so far at the MLB level. This will be just his fifth game (and third start) and he?s getting hit at a .296 clip so far. Also, he?s walked five and given up ten hits for a total of 15 base runners in 9.3 innings in his two starts since moving into the rotation. To make matters worse he now has the misfortune of facing the Rangers for the second time in less than two weeks. This will be the first time the inexperienced hurler will be giving a team a ?second look? and that is often when the ?wheels come off? for a young hurler. Keep in mind it also doesn?t help that the first time he faced them was in Oakland and now he has to face them in hitter-friendly Texas where the Rangers have the top batting average and top slugging percentage in the majors! While the Rangers lineup pounds the ball tonight, look for them to also get a very strong performance on the mound courtesy of Dustin Nippert! The Rangers right-hander has faced the A?s twice this season and allowed just one earned run on eight hits in nine innings of work while striking out ten! He is coming off of a rough start versus the Tigers in his last outing. However, Nippert had been rock solid in his three prior starts as he had allowed four earned runs on 16 hits in 17.3 innings of work. In Nippert?s last 21.7 innings he?s struck out 24. That is a key number because it shows how good his stuff is and with the A?s offense being one of the worst in baseball, we can rely on the Rangers hurler to shut them down while his teammates pile on the runs against Outman. That?s what makes this such a strong play and the line value is fantastic with a low number posted on this game. The Rangers are the Big Play Tuesday!

David Malinsky MLB
4* Philadelphia Phillies Run Line -1.5 runs -135 vs Atlanta @ 7:05 PM ET - Hamels vs Reyes -
Last week we were all set to turn the Phillies and Cole Hamels as a 6* Run Line over Atlanta with Jo-Jo Reyes on the hill. A pitching change turned that into a scratch, but note that we saw exactly what we wanted to from Hamels, in a game that was much more dominating than the bottom line would show. While he got the win, allowing two runs over six innings, the real story comes from the secondary numbers. He only walked one of the 26 batters that he faced, and of the 18 outs recorded the distribution is what we call clean 13 ground-balls and five strikeouts, with nary a fly out. That rarely happens, but it shows how easily he can control a lineup that has struggled vs. left-handers all season. We believe that he can do it again, which builds up plenty of early innings for the Phillies to break the game open, and a rested Brad Lidge is ready to make the last outs easy as well. This time the Phillies do get to see Reyes, and that should get them to the ballpark early for batting practice. It also means that it may be difficult to tell when BP ended and the game began. Reyes just does not bring Major League stuff to the mound, with a combined 5-13/5.89 through his first two seasons, and in terms of this matchup and current form it is even worse. A case can be made that since the 4th of July there has not been a worse starter in the sport, at an 0-5/8.48 over 40.1 innings (just 4.1 frames per start!). The Braves have gone 0-9 in his starts in that span, 1-8 as +1.5, getting out-scored by a combined 38 runs. And behind Reyes is an overworked bullpen that can only add gasoline to any fires that he has lit. For all that is involved in this one the marketplace is enabling us to play a blowout in a short range, and we will do just that.

Jim Feist
Monster MLB Tripleheader, featuring Jim's Baseball Game of the year, $29!!
(981) LA Angels
(982) SEA Mariners
Take " (981) LA Angels "
Game of the Year: Angels.
The best team in the AL against the worst team, at a great price. The Angels are still motivated to clinch the best overall mark. "We have an opportunity to accomplish everything in the regular season that can be accomplished," said Manager Mike Scioscia. "That's important to us." The Angels got six scoreless innings from John Lackey to a 7-3 win over the Texas Rangers on Sunday, running their winning streak to four games and giving them nine wins in 11 tries since they clinched the American League West title. Sunday's win gave the Angels a 3 1/2-game lead over Tampa Bay in the battle for the league's best record, which is worth home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. And it also moved them to closer to the first 100-win season in team history. Starter Jered Weaver may be only 11-10, but he's had a fine season, with fewer hits than innings pitched. He's also on a roll, with a 2.12 ERA his last three starts, fanning 17 in 17 innings. "Clubhouse chemistry is something to consider. If you're winning, it obviously helps clubhouse chemistry," Mike Scioscia said. Clubhouse chemistry has been absent all season from the Mariners. The Mariners limp home after an 0-11 road trip! The 0-11 trip included four losses to the Angels, four to the Royals and three to the A's. Starter Ryan Feierabend is terrible at 1-4 with a 7.25 ERA. He has faced the Angels 3 times....and is 0-3 with a 7.98 ERA! Play the Angels.
(953) FLA Marlins
(954) WAS Nationals
Take " (953) FLA Marlins "
5-Star on the Marlins.
It's a stretch, but Florida still has something to play for in the National League East standings. "We're still playing for something," first baseman Mike Jacobs said. "We still have a week left to go out and play baseball." The recent 9-game win streak means the Marlins are still behind the Mets for the wild-card berth. They will travel to Washington for a three-game series with the Nationals before concluding the regular season with three games in New York against the Mets. "There's still hope on this team," Marlins right fielder Cody Ross said. "We have three games and then the Mets, so anything can happen. It would be close to miraculous, but it still can happen." Lefty starter Scott Olsen is one reason why, at 2-1 with a 2.84 ERA his last three starts. He's also 6-3 with a 3.86 ERA lifetime against Washington. While Florida is No. 3 in the NL in runs scored, the Nationals are second worst. They've also been out of the pennant race for a long time. Starter Shairon Martis has shown nothing, with an 0-3 record and a 6.23 ERA. He's walked 10 batters in 13 innings! The motivated team will roll. Play the Marlins.
(955) CHC Cubs
(956) NYM Mets
Take " under "
Inner Circle Game of the month: Cubs/Mets under.
Shea stadium is a huge pitcher-friendly park and two dominant aces take the mound in this game. Johan Santana (14-7) has had a strong first season with the Mets. He likes this park, as all pitchers do, with a 2.27 ERA and a 7-3 record in Shea this season. Opponents are hitting .229 off him at home. The Cubs have yet to face him this season, but in his career Santana has a 1.38 ERA against the Cubbies! The Cubs' offense is terrific at home, but they end the season with a 7-game road trip. They are also 13-7 under the total the last 20 games. Chicago righty Rich Harden has been a great acquistion, with a 2-03 ERA and a 10-2 record. He's fanned 177 in 142 innings! The Mets haven't faced him yet, either. These teams have met twice this season and the under is 2-0. Don't look for any scoring with these aces in this park. Play the Cubs/Mets under the total.

O.C. Dooley
"1 UNIT" INTANGIBLE TOTAL (White Sox at Twins UNDER 8' in a 8:10 eastern start--------Vazquez versus Baker):
The "intangible" surrounds tonight's starter for Chicago who has come under pressure for NOT being a big game pitcher. For those of you who are diehard baseball fans, you will remember when Javier Vazquez came up to the major leagues as a member of the Montreal Expos which was like pitching in Siberia. But the pressure on Vazquez increased when he eventually was dealt to the Yankees where he had problems dealing with the Big Apple including the media. In this particular campaign, Vazquez and the White Sox have LOST 7 in a row against opponents who having a winning record. In those 7 losses, the White Sox did not even come close with the average setback being 3.8 runs per game. With the American League Central Division title at stake, it is imperative that Vazquez shows the White Sox he CAN handle big time pressure as he pitches against Minnesota who is in second-place in the American League Central chase. Going for Minnesota tonight is Scott Baker who at age 27 just happens to be the OLDEST starter in the rotation. More important is the fact that dating all the way back to the 3rd day of May, Baker has given the Twins at least FIVE innings in every start which obviously takes some pressure off of the bullpen. Tonight Baker attempts to handle a White Sox lineup that continues to play without homerun leader Carlos Quentin who is injured. The White Sox are not all that aggessive on the basepaths, depending instead on hitting the long ball. That is the main reason why this team does NOT take advantage of playing on artificial turf where the White Sox are a staggering 13-4 UNDER the total this season. Minnesota has stayed in the pennant chase due to "pitching and defense" and the first thing this squad does in daily practice sessions is work on their fielding. That is why Minnesota has been a solid UNDER wager at home where they have allowed opponents to average only 3.7 runs per game this campaign. Getting back to Chicago's Javier Vazquez, at one point he ranked #2 in total STRIKEOUTS.
