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

Los Angeles Dodgers at Colorado Rockies (-150, 9.5)

The wild NL West remains wide open, and that’s a good thing for the surging Rockies.

Colorado is riding a five-game winning streak and is 10-5 in its last 15 games. The Rocks are rolling, only three games behind the San Diego Padres and feel confident about going on a mile-high run.

"We're definitely playing better," said Troy Tulowitzki, who's homered four-of-five and is on an 11-game hitting streak. "We're playing defense, pitching a little better and getting some timely hitting, mixed in with some power."

All of those offensive components have equated to Colorado scoring 15 runs in its last two outings and blasting 11 homers over the last four.

Starting pitcher Jeff Francis will look to continue his great start to a rebound season Friday. Francis has yielded only one run in 13.1 innings on the mound in 2010 and is 5-3 with a 2.73 ERA in 14 starts against the Dodgers.

Pick: Rockies


Seattle Mariners at Los Angeles Angels (+100, 8)

Many pundits predicted these two teams would be the frontrunners in the AL West, not the cellar-dwellers.

But much like the NL West, a lengthy run from either squad could propel them to the top of the division.

Seattle has struggled mightily to plate runs this season, ranking last in the AL in that category, but the Mariners have scored five runs in each of their last two games. Each of those victories over the Tigers came after eighth-inning rallies.

"We really needed a defibrillator to come in here and give us a shock because we didn't have a heartbeat for quite some time," said Mike Sweeney, who is hitting .441 with 13 RBIs over the last 10 games. "We lost some tough games that zapped some out of us but the last couple of games have been huge for us."

The M’s will look to earn their third consecutive win while facing L.A.’s Scott Kazmir.

Kazmir was finally decent in his last outing (7.0 IP, 3 ER), but that came during interleague play and he faced one less hitter each time through the order while playing in St. Louis.

This will likely be a close, low-scoring affair but look for Seattle to extend its winning streak. Plus, this number is great value for a team with Cliff Lee on the mound.

Pick: Mariners

Streaking and Slumping Pitchers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Streaking

Shaun Marcum (4-1, 2.82), Toronto Blue Jays

Who needs Roy Halladay when you have Shaun Marcum?

The converted reliever who missed all of 2009 is a big reason the Jays are five games over .500 this year.

“His record really doesn’t show the way he’s pitched,” Toronto manager Cito Gaston said. “He’s pitched outstanding. We just haven’t been able to give him any runs a lot of the time.”

Toronto lost three one-run ballgames that were quality starts for Marcum and the righty has only surrendered more than three runs once all season.

Marcum has won three straight decisions, and four of five, and the Jays have won the last five games he’s started.

Randy Wells (3-2, 3.99), Chicago Cubs

All Randy Wells needed to recover from a mediocre start to the season was a jog around the park with veteran pitcher Ted Lilly.

"We just went for a little run and talked it over and talked about ways to get past it and have a short memory and work hard and get ready for the next start," Wells said of the jog after giving up five earned runs in 2.0 innings May 6.

Since that little pep talk, Wells has posted a 2.74 ERA with the Cubbies going 2-1 in those games – contests against ball-smashing clubs like the Marlins, Rangers and Rockies. The right-hander went at least 8.0 innings in two of those starts and struck out a total of 17 hitters.

Wells will oppose Cardinals ace Chris Carpenter Friday and Chicago is listed as a +115 home dog.


Debuting

Sam LeCure (N/A), Cincinnati Reds

As hot as the Reds pitching has been, the team could probably trot out the batting practice hurler and he would shut down the opposition.

Cincy is hoping that’s the case with Triple-A callup Sam LeCure Friday.

The right-hander will take Homer Bailey’s spot in the Reds rotation after Bailey was placed on the 15-day DL with an inflamed shoulder.

LeCure was 5-2 with a 2.55 ERA at Louisville this season. He started nine games for the Cincinnati affiliate and pitched one shutout.


Returning

Carlos Monasterios (1-0, 1.90), Los Angeles Dodgers

If you see the name C MONASTER on the betting board Friday don’t be alarmed…the Dodgers aren’t pulling Nessie out of Loch Ness for a spot start.

Instead, Joe Torre has asked middle reliever Carlos Monasterios to make his second start of the season. The righty made his starter debut back on May 1 and gave up one run in four innings of work against Pittsburgh.

“He definitely has good stuff, and he’s just starting to learn the slider,” said catcher Russell Martin. “And if he can use that with his curveball and mix in his changeup, there’s no doubt he can start.”

Monasterios has been an excellent option out of the bullpen this season for Los Angeles. He’s gone at least 2.0 innings in seven-of-11 relief appearances and has only surrendered five runs in 19.2 innings of work.

Don’t expect Monasterios to get deep into the game Friday as he will likely be on a tight pitch count.

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

On May 28 in Baseball History...

1941 - The New York Yankees nip the Washington Senators 6-5 in the first night game at Griffith Stadium.

1946 - The Washington Senators edge the New York Yankees 2-1 before 49,917 fans in the first night game at Yankee Stadium.

1951 - After going 0-for-12, Willie Mays connects for his first major-league hit, a home run off Braves pitcher Warren Spahn. The Giants lose the game 4-1.

1952 - The Giants Willie Mays enters the army. Although Mays is hitting just .236, the Giants are two and a half games up, in first place. They will lose eight of their next ten games.

1957 - The N.L. approves the proposed moves of the Dodgers and the Giants to the West Coast, provided both clubs make their request before October 1 and move at the same time.

1961 - After losing the first game 14-9 at home to Chicago, the Yankees take the nightcap 5-3 with the help of a Roger Maris home run. Maris's ninth home run of the season is one of 27 hit in today's seven A.L. games — a record. Twelve more homers in four N.L. games make a total of 39, a one-day major-league record for 11 games in both leagues.

1968 - The A.L. owners agree to the following divisional alignment for 1969: Eastern: Boston, New York, Cleveland, Baltimore, Washington, Detroit. Western: Chicago, Kansas City, Minnesota, Seattle, Oakland, California.

1971 - Clete Boyer, involved in a dispute with Braves owner Paul Richards and manager Lum Harris over alleged silly rules and mismanagement, gets his release and retires. Boyer had hit safely in the last nine games of his career, including five home runs and 14 RBI.

1986 - In his second start for the White Sox since being recalled from Triple-A Buffalo, Joe Cowley sets a major-league record by striking out the first seven Rangers he faces, but still surrenders six runs in 4 1/3 innings and loses 6-3. Cowley's record will be broken by Jim Deshaies before season's end.

1994 - Minnesota's Dave Winfield passes former Twin Rod Carew to move into 15th place on the all-time list with career hit 3,054.

1995 - The White Sox and Tigers combine for a major-league record 12 home runs at Tiger Stadium. The Tigers hit seven home runs, but still lose the 14-12 slugfest.
