I think the person who was getting him sub expired and didn't re-up, and the way he went at the end who could blame them.

INSIDER SPORTS REPORT

Tampa Bay/N.Y. Yankees (MLB) UNDER 9.5

John Ryan

San Francisco Giants vs. Milwaukee Brewers (MLB)
Apr 6, 2008 2:05 PM EDT

Play: San Francisco Giants


Ai Simulator 3* graded play on San Francisco ? I simply love playing against big favorites in MLB. If you simply bet against every MLB favorite lined at -250 and higher you will make some money ? not a fortune, but a strongly probability of profits over the course of the season. When a massive dog is graded a 3* it obviously is a very good opportunity. Do not forget though that there will be rare occasions where the AiS does identify a significant favorite as a MAJOR play. Generally, like the NHL where nearly 85% of my plays were 3* Live Major DOGS, the same can be expected in MLB this season. Supporting this graded are several key angles and I will present two of them. SF is 14-9 (+9.3 Units) against the money line in road games vs. NL teams scoring 4.8 or more RPG on the season over the last 2 seasons. Milwaukee is 81-96 (-31.0 Units) against the money line when playing against a team with a losing record over the last 3 seasons.

THE SPORTS ADVISORS

NBA


Golden State (46-30, 34-42 ATS) at New Orleans (53-22, 46-27-2 ATS)
The red-hot Hornets look to extend their four-game winning overall streak and their 10-game home winning streak while staying atop the Western Conference playoff standings when the Warriors come calling inside the New Orleans Arena. New Orleans has won nine of its last 10 overall (7-2-1 ATS) and beat the Knicks 118-110 at home Friday, coming up short as a 15?-point favorite. The Hornets have the top record in the West, 1? games ahead of the Lakers and Spurs. Golden State is wrapping up a four-game road trip tonight, having lost two of the first three both SU and ATS. After falling in San Antonio (116-92 as 8?-point ?dogs) and Dallas (111-86 as five-point pups) on back-to-back nights Tuesday and Wednesday, the Warriors got back on track with Friday?s 117-86 win in Memphis as 9?-point favorites.
Don Nelson?s Warriors have been battling with the Nuggets and Mavericks for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference, with Dallas in seventh place, one game ahead of both Golden State and Denver. The road team has won both meetings this season, with New Orleans scoring a 116-104 win in Oakland on Jan. 4 as a 2?-point ?dog and Golden State returning the favor 116-103 in the Big Easy on Jan. 30 as a nine-point pup. The Warriors have won four of five in this series and are 5-1 ATS in the last six. Finally, the straight-up winner is 8-1-1 ATS in the last 10 series clashes. New Orleans has won 10 straight at home (9-1 ATS) with the only non-cover being Friday?s win over New York. The Hornets are on ATS streaks of 20-7 at home and 19-7 against the Pacific Division. Golden State is on ATS ruts of 7-15 against Western Conference foes, 9-28 following a SU win and 8-17 after a spread-cover. The over is 7-2 in the last nine head-to-head matchups, 10-4 in the Warriors? last 14 against the Southwest Division and 10-4 when the Warriors are an underdog. The over is also 6-2 in the Hornets? last eight, 14-6-2 in their last 22 home games and 5-1-2 in their last eight as a home favorite.
ATS ADVANTAGE: NEW ORLEANS and OVER



Dallas (47-29, 33-39-4 ATS) at Phoenix (51-25, 36-37-3 ATS)
The Suns try to make it eight straight wins inside US Airways Center when the Mavericks pay a visit in this battle between perennial Western Conference playoff squads. Phoenix, which pummeled Minnesota 117-88 as a 15?-point home chalk on Friday, has won 11 of its last 14 games overall (9-4-1 ATS) and has seemed to figure out how to use newcomer Shaquille O?Neal in the offense. After struggling early with O?Neal (losing six of nine), the Suns have gotten about 16 points and 10 rebounds a game from the big man since, and nobody has benefited more from O?Neal?s production than forward Amare Stoudemire, who is averaging 31 points and 10 rebounds a game over the last eight. Dallas is just 3-6 SU and ATS in its last nine overall, but the Mavericks have gotten the cash in their last three, including Friday?s 112-108 road loss to the Lakers as five-point ?dogs. With that defeat, Avery Johnson?s club dropped to 1-3 SU (2-2 ATS) in its last four on the highway.
The home team has won the last three in this series, but Phoenix is 4-0-1 ATS in the last five battles. In the two clashes so far this year, the Mavericks scored a 108-105 home win on Dec. 19 and pushed as three-point favorites, while the Suns rolled 109-97 on Feb. 14, cashing as a 7?-point chalk. The straight-up winner is 8-1-1 ATS in the last 10 series meetings.
After Friday?s rout of the TWolves, the Suns have won and cashed in seven straight home games. Mike D?Antoni?s squad is also on ATS runs of 8-1-1 as a favorite, 5-1 against the Southwest Division and 8-1-1 against the Western Conference. The Mavs are just 8-21 ATS in their last 29 road games against teams with a winning home record, 3-7 ATS in their last 10 against Western Conference foes and 1-4 ATS in their last five following a SU loss. However, Dallas has cashed in seven of its last 10 road contests and 11 of its last 15 when returning to work after one day off. The over has been the play in three of the last four series meetings and is 9-0 when the Mavs? are an underdog and 7-2 with the Suns as a home favorite. However the under is 10-2 in Dallas? last 12 Sunday tipoffs and 6-2 the last eight time the Suns have been a favorite.
ATS ADVANTAGE: PHOENIX



San Antonio (52-24, 35-39-2 ATS) at Portland (38-38 SU and ATS)
The Spurs try to clinch a spot in the Western Conference playoff and beat the Blazers for the 14th straight time when the two meet inside the Rose Garden.
San Antonio had a chance to wrap up a playoff berth Friday in Utah but turned in its worst offensive performance of the season, losing 90-64 as a three-point ?dog. The loss snapped the team?s eight-game overall winning streak (7-1 ATS) Spurs and a three-game road winning streak (3-0 ATS).
Portland has dropped four straight (1-3 ATS), including Thursday?s 96-85 home loss to the Rockets as 6?-point underdogs. The Blazers are 3-14 ATS in their last 17 in front of the home fans and 6-15 ATS in their last 21 against team with a winning SU record.
San Antonio has dominated this series, winning 13 straight and going 20-8 ATS in the last 28 meetings. Both battles this season have been in San Antonio, with the Spurs getting a 106-97 win on Oct. 30 but coming up short as 13-point favorites and then winning 100-79 on Dec. 2 as a 14-point chalk. The favorite is 6-2 ATS in the last eight head-to-head.
Gregg Popovich pulled his starters early in the fourth quarter against the Jazz so they should be well rested for this one as the Spurs try to improve on positive ATS marks of 10-3 in their last 13 Sunday tipoffs and 5-0 in their last five when they get a day of rest.
The over is 3-1 in the last four series clashes, but the under is 6-2 for the Spurs in their last eight on the highway and 42-20-1 in the Blazers? last 63 against the Southwest Division.
ATS ADVANTAGE: SAN ANTONIO

THE SPORTS ADVISORS

MLB

NATIONAL LEAGUE

L.A. Dodgers (3-2) at San Diego (4-2)
After splitting the first two games of this series, the Padres send righty Chris Young (1-0, 1.59 ERA) to the mound today to face off with the Dodgers? Derek Lowe (0-0, 3.00) at Petco Park. The Dodgers pounded out a 7-1 win on Friday night thanks to a six-run seventh inning, but behind another masterful performance from ace Jake Peavy, San Diego evened the weekend series with Saturday?s 4-1 win. L.A. had won three straight meetings in this rivalry before yesterday after the Padres had won eight of the previous 10. Finally, San Diego has won seven of the last 10 head-to-head clashes at Petco. The 6-foot-10 Young held opponents to a .194 batting average in 2007 and had a major-league leading 1.69 ERA in 13 starts in Petco Park. And in his first outing at home this season, he held the Astros to one run on five hits over 5 2/3 innings of a 2-1 victory on Tuesday. In eight career starts against the Dodgers, Young is 1-2 with a 2.98 ERA. Tonight, he gets to face a lineup that was completely frustrated yesterday by Peavy, who held Los Angeles to just two fourth-inning hits and struck out eight in a complete-game effort. Lowe gave up two runs and nine hits in six innings of work in his debut Tuesday, but wasn?t around for the decision in the Dodgers? 3-2 win over the Giants. This is his first road start after going 6-8 with a 4.19 ERA in 18 outings on the highway last season. Lowe is 0-3 with a 3.41 ERA in six career starts at Petco Park, but his offense is partly to blame, getting just 15 runs in those six outings. Last year, the veteran righthander went 1-1 with a 5.30 ERA in three starts against the Padres, including lasting just 4 1/3 innings back on Sept. 1 when San Diego and Peavy blanked the Dodgers 7-0.
The over is 5-3 in the last eight series meetings overall and 5-2 in Young?s last seven starts against Los Angeles. However the under is 4-1 in Lowe?s last five overall and 4-1-1 in his last six with the Dodgers? as a road underdog.
ATS ADVANTAGE: SAN DIEGO


AMERICAN LEAGUE


Boston (3-3) at Toronto (3-2)
The Red Sox send 20-game winner Josh Beckett (20-7, 3.27 ERA in 2007) to the mound for the first time this season at the Rogers Centre north of the border as they try to avoid a three-game sweep at the hands of the Blue Jays and ace Roy Halladay (0-1, 3.86 ERA). The Blue Jays have won six straight against the Red Sox, including five in a row inside the Rogers Centre. In the first two clashes of this series, Toronto has outscored Boston 16-5, including Saturday?s 10-2 blowout win. Beckett returns from the disabled list as back spasms forced him to miss his scheduled opening-day start against the A?s in Japan on March 25. When last he pitched in meaningful action, the righthander was dominating hitters in the 2007 postseason, going 4-0 with a 1.20 ERA in helping Boston to another World Series title. The runner-up in the AL Cy Young voting was 2-1 with a 2.35 ERA in three starts against the Blue Jays last season, including a showdown with Halladay on Sept. 4 when Beckett allowed three runs on five hits in eight innings of a 5-3 win. However, Boston is just 2-5 in Beckett?s last seven outings against Toronto, while the Jays are just 1-5 in Halladay?s last six against the Sox.
Halladay opened the season in New York on Tuesday, giving up three runs on seven hits in seven innings and was saddled with the 3-2 loss. Today, he returns home, where he was phenomenal last season, going 11-1 with a 3.12 ERA ? although Toronto did lose both of Halladay?s home starts against the Red Sox last year by scores of 5-3 and 8-0. Despite throwing an eight-inning complete game in his Sept. 4 matchup against Beckett ? giving up five runs on nine hits ? Halladay only went 1-3 with a 5.94 ERA in five starts against the Red Sox last season. The under is 4-1-1 in the last six series meetings in Toronto, 5-2-1 in Halladay?s last eight home starts against Boston and 12-5-1 in Beckett?s last 18 road outings.

Orlando Magic at New York Knicks
Sunday, April 6th, 6:05 PM ET

The New York Knicks have absolutely, flat out mailed it in for the season. This is a team that has lost 17 of 19 games overall. Things don't look to get any easier Sunday evening against Orlando, even in Madison Square Garden. For starters, the Magic have covered 8 of the last 10 series meetings. Orlando remains one of the most profitable road teams in the league, covering 24 of 37 contests away from home this season. Make it 25 of 38 after Sunday.
