Hot Lines: Today's best MLB bets
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Seattle Mariners at Baltimore Orioles (+125, 8)

Seattle’s offense has been in a slumber this season, literally.

The Tacoma News Tribune reported Monday that Ken Griffey Jr. missed a pinch-hit opportunity during a game last week because he was napping in the clubhouse.

"He was asleep in the clubhouse," an unnamed Mariner told the newspaper. "He'd gone back about the fifth inning to get a jacket and didn't come back. I went back in about the seventh inning -- and he was in his chair, sound asleep."

You know your offense is pretty pathetic when Junior won’t even rouse from a catnap to stand in the batter’s box.

Seattle ranks 29th in the majors with 102 runs scored and last in home runs with 12. Despite an eight-run outburst Sunday, this offensively inept team has produced a 12-17-2 over/under record this year and has failed to plate more than three runners in eight of its last 10 ballgames.

With Milton Bradley out with personal problems, Jack Wilson questionable with a knee injury and Griffey catching an afternoon siesta, who is going to power this lineup?

It doesn’t matter who’s on the bump for Baltimore in this matchup because Seattle stinks and Cliff Lee will surely keep the O’s bats in check.

Pick: Under


Tampa Bay Rays at Los Angeles Angels (-125, 8.5)

The best team in baseball failed to get a runner to first baseball Sunday, but some may have seen it coming.

Before Dallas Braden threw a perfect game against Tampa Bay, the Rays came into the contest hitting .207 in their previous eight outings and posting two runs or fewer in five of those.

"(We) don't worry about it," B. J. Upton said Sunday. "You don't like to be no-hit but it’s still just a loss. We'll be over it in about 30 minutes."

Tampa will conclude a nine-game West Coast road trip Wednesday and the time change may finally be catching up with the team.

The last stop on the trip is Anaheim where the Rays have not fared well. Going into Monday, Tampa was 1-13 in Southern California since 2006 and 6-34 in the last 40 games at Angel Stadium.

Pick: Angels

This Day in Baseball
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On May 11 in Baseball History...

1897 - Charles "Duke" Farrell, Washington catcher, sets a major league record by throwing out eight Orioles trying to steal second base. The Senators lose anyway 6-3.

1959 - At Yankee Stadium, Yogi Berra's errorless streak of 148 games comes to an end when he makes an error in a 7-6 loss to the Indians.

1963 - Sandy Koufax returns to the rotation from a circulatory ailment in his left index finger and throws a no-hitter against the visiting first place Giants. The Man With The Golden Arm walked two, fanned four, and improved his record to 4–1.

1972 - The Giants trade future Hall of Famer Willie Mays to the Mets for minor league pitcher Charlie Williams and cash.

1977 - With the Braves mired in a 16-game losing streak, owner Ted Turner takes over as field manager. After the Braves lose again 2-1, Turner is relieved of his new job by N.L. president Chub Feeney. A league rule prohibits a manager from owning a financial interest in his club.

1980 - Thirty-nine-year-old Pete Rose steals second, third, and home in one inning for the Phillies. The last National Leaguer to pull this feat was Jackie Robinson in 1954.

1984 - The Tigers improve their record to 26-4 with an 8-2 win over the Angels and establish a new record for the best 30-game start in major league history, eclipsing the 25-5 mark set by the Dodgers in 1955.

1990 - Citing a no-trade clause in his contract, Yankees outfielder Dave Winfield refuses to report to the Angels after being traded for Mike Witt. Winfield will eventually accept the trade on May 16, ending his often stormy relationship with Yankees owner George Steinbrenner.

1996 - Al Leiter pitches the first no-hitter in Marlins history. After two walks and a hit batsman in the first three innings, Leiter retires the last 20 batters in a 6-0 gem.
