GAME: Atlanta Braves @ Colorado Rockies Apr 10, 2008 3:05PM
EXPERT: Lee Kostroski
SPORT: Major League Baseball Picks
PICK: Atlanta Braves
Offered at: -125 Belmont
REASON FOR PICK: PLAY ON 3* Atlanta (Hudson) minus on the $ line vs. Colorado (Francis), 3:05 PM EST

Both the Braves and the Rockies are off to disappointing starts to the 2008 season but Atlanta has been a victim of two extra-innings losses and three one-run losses this season. The Rockies have more to be concerned with having scored 16 runs in just eight games and seeing significant struggles in the pitching staff. Heading into Wednesday, the Rockies were tied with the Giants for the worst team batting average in baseball at .221. Atlanta is averaging 5.5 runs per game and is displaying solid power numbers despite the early season losses.

Rockies ace Jeff Francis has had a terrible start to the season, allowing 12 hits and five runs in his lone official start. Francis was down 5-1 against St. Louis on opening day before rain saved him and the Rockies from another loss. Francis has allowed ten runs in his past three starts against the Braves are a team that has had great success against left-handed pitching with a .282 team average thus far in 2008.

Tim Hudson has allowed just nine hits in two starts this season, giving the Braves a win in his last start against the potent Mets offense. Atlanta is 14-6 in Hudson’s last 20 starts and he owns a WHIP of just 0.69 through his first two starts this season. Atlanta had the fifth best road record in the National League last season and the Braves have been playing much better ball than the Rockies despite similar records.

Best of Luck, Lee.

BRIAN GABRIELLE

Take Tiger Woods (10-11), 1/6 unit: The only question is whether or not Tiger rules are in effect. To put the full unit and a half on him or not? Like everyone else who even passively follows golf, I will be surprised if he does not win. Not shocked, though. I mean, this is a major tournament, with one of the best fields of the year. There are a couple of past champions who are also playing well this year, if not to Wood's standards (Mickelson has a win, Singh has two seconds and a third), as well as several players who have had strong Augusta appearances also playing well this year (Els has a win, Furyk has a second,Goosen finished T2 a few weeks ago at Doral and K.J.Choi has a win). Aw, who am I kidding. I will be shocked if he does not win. But not shocked and awed. Take Geoff Ogilvy (20-1), 1/6 unit: He is a popular pick (after Tiger, of course) this week. Because in his last two tournaments he has finished 1 and T2;because he has already won a major, and did it with a clutch chip late on Sunday; because he held off Goosen, Singh, Furyk and, to a lesser extent, Woods,in that win at Doral a few weeks ago; because he won at Doral by making a lot of pars and not making mistakes---which is the way to play major tournaments;and because in his two appearances at Augusta the last two years he has finished inside the top 25 both times. Take Adam Scott (33-1), 1/6 unit: You've heard the story: Scott shot a feverish, course-record 63 in the first round of the Shell Houston Open last week (he really did have a fever) and followed with a 76 before withdrawing because he was still ill, throat ulcers being the main problem. You may have also heard that Scott's registration number at Augusta this week is 61 and that he shot a 61 at the Qatar Masters earlier this year. THIS IS NOT AN OMEN, THIS IS A MEANINGLESS COINCIDENCE. Adam Scott is not going to shoot 61 or 63 any day this week. In fact, he is never shot a round in the 60s in six trips to Augusta. On the flip side,though, he has only missed one cut, his best finish was a T9 in 2002, and his illness may clear up just in time for Thursday's opening round. You know how it is when you are sick, feverish, all those nasty flu-like symptoms. When you turn the corner you feel stronger than you did before you were sick. It sounds like Scott's illness may be a bit more severe than the flu but the fact is he is in Augusta resting up and expects to play Thursday. At 33-1, he is an intriguing pick. Sort of a poor man's Tiger Woods who happens to be a millionaire, his putting stats and GIR suggest he is more of an all or nothing player than Woods. That is, when he hits greens---and he hits a lot of them---he is a strong putter. When he doesn't hit greens, he's not so strong. By contrast, there is hardly any difference between Tiger's Putting Average and his Putts Per Round---he is near the top in both categories. Of course, iron play and short game affect both measures.But we do not need stats to tell us that

NBA


Denver (47-31, 42-36 ATS) at Golden State (34-44 ATS)
Two teams battling for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference meet up when the Nuggets travel to Oracle Arena for a clash with the Warriors. Denver beat the Clippers 117-99 Tuesday night, easily covering as a 12?-point road chalk. The victory halted an untimely two-game SU and ATS skid ? with the losses coming to lowly Sacramento and Seattle. The Nuggets are 7-3 SU in their last 10 starts, but they are just 2-4 ATS in the last six (1-2 ATS on the road). Golden State outgunned Sacramento 140-132 Tuesday but failed to cash as a 14-point home favorite for its second straight ATS setback. The Warriors, who are 5-5 SU in their last 10 starts, are on a 1-4 ATS slide. These two teams met 12 days ago in Denver, with the Nuggets winning 119-112 but the Warriors cashing as an eight-point underdog. Denver is 2-1 SU and Golden State is 2-1 ATS in three contests this year. The Nuggets, who prevailed 124-120 at Golden State catching five points in December, are 7-3 SU in the last 10 meetings, but the two teams have split the cash during this stretch. The Nuggets sport positive pointspread trends of 11-5 overall, 9-2 on Thursday, 8-3 on one day of rest, 5-2 on road trips and 7-3 after a spread-cover. However, they are 16-35-1 ATS in their last 52 as a dog of five to 10? points and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 against the Pacific Division. The Warriors are on ATS streaks of 5-0 as a chalk of five to 10? points and 10-4 on Thursday, but the rest of their ATS trends are negative, including 6-15 at home, 5-14 as a home favorite, 2-6 against the Northwest Division, 9-29 after a SU win and 8-17 on one day of rest.
The ?over? trends run wild for both these high-scoring teams. For Denver, the over is on hot streaks of 19-7 overall, 5-1 as a road ?dog, 15-5 after an ATS win, 8-3 after a SU win and 10-4 on the highway. For Golden State, the over is on runs of 4-1 at home, 10-3 on Thursday, 17-6-1 after a SU win and 13-6 on one day of rest. Finally, the over is 10-4 in the last 14 series meetings overall and 6-1 in the last seven at Golden State.
ATS ADVANTAGE: GOLDEN STATE and OVER



Utah (52-26, 43-35 ATS) at Dallas (49-29, 34-40-4 ATS)
The Jazz aim to shore up their playoff seeding when they head to the American Airlines Center to face the Mavericks, who are trying to hold off Denver and Golden State in the Western Conference playoff chase.
Utah shut down New Orleans 77-66 Tuesday as a 5?-point road pup for its fourth consecutive SU and ATS victory. The Jazz are on a 15-4 tear in their last 19 games, going 13-6 against the number during that stretch. Dallas bested lowly Seattle 99-83 Tuesday but couldn?t cover the heavy 18-point spread at home, halting a four-game ATS winning streak. The Mavericks are 4-1 SU and ATS in their last five starts, following an ugly six-game stretch in which they went 1-5 SU and 0-6 ATS. Utah is 2-1 SU and ATS this season against Dallas, with both wins coming at home, including a 116-110 victory laying 5? points on March 3. In the lone meeting in Dallas, the Mavericks prevailed 125-117 in December, also as a 5? point chalk. Utah is 4-1-1 ATS in the last six clashes in this series, but Dallas is 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings at home. In fact, the host is on a 19-7-1 ATS roll in this rivarly. The Jazz are on positive ATS runs of 4-0 against the Southwest Division, 5-1 after a SU win, 5-1 as a road ?dog, 7-2 on one day of rest, 20-7 against winning teams and 19-7 against the West. Their lone negative: They?re 3-10 ATS in their last 13 outings on Thursdays. The Mavericks are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 after a SU win and 12-5 ATS in their last 17 on one day of rest, but they harbor negative pointspread trends of 3-7 against winning teams, 2-5 as a favorite, 5-16-1 on Thursday, 1-5 at home and 1-5 after a non-cover. For Utah, the under is on an 8-1-1 spree against the Southwest Division, but the over is 5-2 in its last seven starts overall, 29-11 in their last 40 as a ?dog of up to 4? points and 41-20 in their last 61 as a road pup of less than five points. For Dallas, the under is on runs of 4-1 overall, 5-1 overall, 7-1 as a favorite, and 10-1 as a favorite of less than five points. However, the over is 4-1 in the last five clashes overall and 4-0 in the past four battles in Dallas.
ATS ADVANTAGE: DALLAS

THE SPORTS ADVISORS


NATIONAL LEAGUE

Philadelphia (4-5) at N.Y. Mets (3-4)
The Phillies wrap up a three-game set at Shea Stadium by sending right-hander Adam Eaton (0-0, 3.52 ERA) to the hill against Mets righty John Maine (0-1, 9.00 ERA). The Mets snapped a three-game overall losing streak and nine-game skid to Philadelphia with Wednesday?s 8-2 rout of the Phillies. Despite last night?s result, the Phillies ? who won Monday?s opener 5-2 ? are still 13-7 in their last 20 against New York and 8-3 in their last 11 at Shea Stadium. Also, Philadelphia is on runs of 11-6 on the road, 13-7 against right-handed starters and 35-18 against the N.L. East.
New York is still just 2-10 in its last 12 home games and 2-10 in its last 12 against right-handed starters. Eaton, who went 10-10 with a 6.29 ERA in 30 starts last year, got a no-decision in his 2008 debut, allowing three runs on six hits in 7 2/3 innings in his team?s 4-3 loss at Cincinnati on Saturday. He?s had great success against the Mets, with a 5-0 mark and 2.68 ERA in seven career starts, including 2-0 with a 3.86 ERA in four outings last season ? with both wins coming at Shea. Finally, despite a 6.12 road ERA last season, Eaton went 7-3 in 15 starts. Maine, coming off a 15-10 campaign with a 3.91 ERA in 30 starts, struggled in his opener Saturday, allowing four runs on eight hits in four innings in an 11-5 loss at Atlanta. However, Maine is 4-0 with a 2.13 ERA the past two seasons against the Mets, getting a road win and two home no-decisions last year. Maine went an even 6-6 at home last year, with a 3.44 ERA. Although last night?s game barely eclipsed the posted total, the under is still 8-4-1 in the last 13 head-to-head meetings overall and 8-3 in the last 11 matchups in New York. The under is also 10-5 in the Phillies? last 15 games against right-handed starters, but the over is 12-4-2 in Eaton?s last 18 starts overall and 7-1-2 in Eaton?s last 10 on the highway.
For New York, the over is on runs of 17-5-1 overall, 18-6-1 against division rivals and 8-3 in Maine?s last 11 home starts.
ATS ADVANTAGE: PHILADELPHIA


AMERICAN LEAGUE

Detroit (1-7) at Boston (4-5)
Having finally gotten into the win column, the Tigers will now try to make it two in a row when they send left-hander Nate Robertson (0-0, 9.0 ERA) to the mound in the finale of a three-game series at Fenway Park. The Red Sox are set to counter with veteran knuckleballer Tim Wakefield (0-0, 4.50). Detroit, which entered Wednesday?s game at Boston as the only remaining winless team in baseball, rode Jeremy Bonderman?s strong pitching performance to a 7-2 victory last night. The Tigers, who mustered just 15 runs in their first seven games, easily set a season high for runs. On the downside, they?re still just 2-6 in their last eight on the road and 0-6 in their last six against right-handed starters. The Red Sox have now dropped three of their last four. However, they?re still 58-32 at Fenway since the start of the 2007 season (55-25 as a home favorite), and they?re 18-6 in their last 24 home games against Detroit. Additionally, Terry Francona?s club has won five straight games against left-handed starters. Robertson, who went 9-13 with a 4.76 ERA in 30 starts in 2007, got pounded Friday in his season opener, allowing five runs on seven hits in five innings in an 8-5 loss to the Chicago White Sox. He is 2-3 with a 6.42 ERA in seven lifetime starts against Boston, winning at home and losing on the road in two outings last season. Robertson was 4-9 with a 5.38 ERA in 14 starts on the highway last season, and the Tigers are 7-19 in his last 26 on foreign turf. Wakefield, who went 17-12 with a 4.76 ERA in 31 starts last season, got a no-decision in his first start of 2008, allowing three runs on six hits in six innings as Boston lost 6-3 Friday at Toronto. The Red Sox are 1-4 in the veteran?s last five outings. However, Wakefield went 10-4 in 15 home starts in 2007, despite a beefy 5.27 ERA.
Wakefield is 13-10 with 4.50 ERA in 32 appearances (20 starts) against Detroit, and the Sox are 8-3 in his last 11 against the Tigers. However, in his lone start against Detroit last year, Wakefield got tagged for nine hits and five runs in a 7-2 home loss. The first two games of this series have stayed under the total, making the under 8-2-1 in the last 11 series meetings. Also, for Detroit the under is on runs of 20-6-1 in Robertson?s road starts, 7-2 with Robertson as a road underdog, 7-2 against the A.L. East and 4-1 against right-handers. Also, the under is 22-8-1 in Wakefield?s last 31 starts when going on five days? rest, but the over is 7-1 in his last eight home outings and 9-4 in his last 13 as a favorite.

Jimmy The Moose comp

Game: Chicago Cubs at Pittsburgh Pirates Apr 10 2008 7:05PM
Prediction: Chicago Cubs

Reason: The first two games in the series have gone into extra innings and the bullpens are worn out. Rich Hill will be on the mound for the Cubs and they have won 8 of his last 11 starts. In his last 5 starts coming off a quality start the Cubs are 4-1. Morris takes the mound for the Pirates and with a tired pen he will have to eat up several innings. The Pirates are 2-5 in his last 7 starts overall and in his last 7 starts as an underdog. Prior to last night marathon the Cubs had won 4 straight meetings and will take this one too. Play on the Chicago Cubs -.

Game: Los Angeles Lakers at Los Angeles Clippers Apr 10 2008 10:35PM
Prediction: Los Angeles Lakers

Reason: The Clippers are in a 86-47 ATS Play Against System that says to go against home teams with revenge from a road loss of 20 or more points if they are playing a team that is off a loss as a favorite in their last game. The Clippers are 0-9 ATS with revenge from a road loss of 20 or more points. The Lakers are 23-12 ATS vs. losing teams and they are 28-11 ATS vs. teams that allow 99 or more points a game. Kobe and company are 26-13 ATS on the road this year and they are 19-8 ATS off a game where this was a combined score of 215 or more points scored. PLAY ON LA LAKERS

Here's something Eagle8 that's going to surprise you!

Read your post about Malinsky from Covers.com from yesterday's service plays thread.A new website claiming to sell picks from professional gamblers that never got launched this past football & basketball season because of technical difficulties appears to be reselling Malinsky's 6 star picks($30 or so from Covers.com)under a different name for $50 each.The reason why i'm pointing this out is that for some reason bettors believe receiving info from betting syndicates(Budin would be an example)is the way to go.I bought a GOY type play($100) from a guy who followed the professional gamblers & it lost hideously(home fave who lost straight up by 24 points!).The next game i bought was $50 & that lost too!I complained about the price being jacked up for the GOY & received free service.The next 4 plays he gave me went 1-3!Then he did hit 6 in a row.Of course he then asked for another $350 for 2 weeks.He started passing virtually every day.Agreed to extend my service.Picks during that stretch were mediocre at best(couple of them were probably Malinsky's!).Finally service concluded on 3/31.I had stopped betting those "professional" games since the college conference tourneys since i had no confidence in him any more.Obviously i didn't sign up for MLB with him.:sad3:
