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

Tampa Bay Rays at Texas Rangers (+120, 9.5)

Despite holding the best record in baseball, the Rays aren’t really stroking the ball that well. Timely hitting has been the key to Tampa’s success as the team ranks 16th in the majors in batting average (.257) and 14th in hits.

Tampa Bay just lost shortstop Jason Bartlett to the disabled list so manager Joe Maddon has been tinkering with the lineup, hoping to get guys like B.J. Upton (.222) and Carlos Pena (.173) going.

In an unprecedented move, Maddon placed his catcher Jason Jaso at the top of the order for Saturday’s game in Texas.

"This is a first for me,” Jaso said of hitting leadoff. "I don't think even in high school, Little League did I hit there."

After an 0-for-4 day from Jaso, it will be interesting to see if Maddon adjusts the lineup once again Sunday.

Field-level temperatures ranged from 105-110 degrees Saturday and another scorching day expected in Arlington for this game could suck the offense out of these teams.

Pick: Under


New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays (+110, 9.5)

The Bronx Bombers haven’t been swept by the Blue Jays in seven years and haven’t lost an entire three-game set in Toronto since 2000. Don’t expect the trend to end Sunday.

New York rolled into Canada on a five-game winning streak where the team had posted an average of 7.2 runs per game. The Yanks have registered a grand total of three runs in the two losses against Toronto.

What’s even worse is that New York’s 3-through-6 hitters in the lineup (Mark Teixeira, Alex Rodriguez, Robinson Cano and Jorge Posada) went 2-for-24 with 10 strikeouts during Saturday’s 14-innning 3-2 loss.

But you can’t keep a good lineup down for long. The Yankees haven’t scored fewer than seven runs during a three-game stretch all season.

Javier Vazquez will climb the hill for New York Sunday and looks to be returning to form after an awful start to the season. The veteran righty has allowed two runs or fewer in three of his last four outings.

"I think it's important for him," manager Joe Girardi said. "He got off to a rough start but he's bounced back. Three out of his last four starts have been very good."

Jays starter Brandon Morrow has been just as good lately but New York feeds off hard-throwing, fastball-heavy guys like him.

Pick: Yankees

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

Streaking

Ubaldo Jimenez, Colorado Rockies

We’re running out of superlatives to describe how good Jimenez is pitching right now. The Rockies righthander is enjoying one of the finest first two months a big league pitcher has ever had.

And for those weirdos out there who aren’t impressed by his 10-1 record and 0.78 ERA, his WHIP (walks + hits per inning) and BAA (batters against average) are just as dazzling.

Basically it’s like he’s throwing golf balls up there and hitters are trying to hit with a string of floss. That’s how hard it’s been to bat against this guy this season.

Tim Hudson, Atlanta Braves

If you like feel-good stories than Tim Hudson is your guy. The former A’s ace wasn’t sure if he’d ever be the same after undergoing Tommy John surgery two years ago.

He came back at the end of last season and made enough quality starts to convince the Braves to resign him and ship 2009 staff No. 1 Javier Vazquez to the Yankees.

“I wasn’t quite 100 percent last year when I came back but I was good enough to test it and to prove to the Braves and prove to myself that I was going to bounce back from it fully,” Hudson told the Atlanta Journal Constitution. “It gave me a lot of confidence. Coming into spring training this year it was a full go.

“It was as good as I’ve felt physically coming out of spring training in a long time. It’s carried over into the year.”

The confidence has been a big help to his performance in 2010. Hudson has quality starts in eight of his last nine outings and the Braves are 6-1 in his last seven trips to the mound.


Slumping

Tim Lincecum, San Francisco Giants

It just feels wrong placing this two-time Cy Young winner in the slumping category but sports betting is a what-have-you-done-for-me-lately business.

Lincecum has walked more or as many batters as he’s sat down in each of his last three appearances and the Giants are 0-3 in those games.

The flame-throwing righty still carries a big reputation, so oddsmakers are making it worthwhile for anyone who wants to fade the Giants ace hurler.

John Lackey, Boston Red Sox

There are some free agent signings that are so bad from the get-go that you have to wonder if both sides – the player and new team – would like a do-over.

The Sox and Lackey have to be considered within this group. The former Angels No. 1 starter seemed like a great addition to Boston’s rotation, especially with Daisuke Matsuzaka opening the season hurt.

Unfortunately for Red Sox nation Lackey has been a complete bust since joining the AL East. The righty has just one quality start in his last five trips to the bump and batters are knocking him like he was Osama Bin Laden-shaped piñata.

Sunday Night Baseball: Brewers at Cardinals
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Milwaukee Brewers at St. Louis Cardinals (-245, 8.5)

The Milwaukee Brewers battle the Cardinals in St. Louis Sunday night in an NL Central division game on ESPN. Here’s how the two teams stack up:

Unhurried Holliday

When the Cardinals brought Matt Holliday in to bat cleanup in the lineup behind Albert Pujols, they were expecting big things.

After all, a typical year the last four seasons for Holiday was a .325 batting average with 30 home runs, 112 RBIs and 43 doubles.

Entering this brouhaha with the Brewers, Holliday’s 24 RBIs was only fifth-best on the team. Worse, he’s hit only two home runs at home. And despite a recent surge at the plate, he’s batting .215 with runners in scoring position.

The good news is, entering this series, Holliday was batting .520 in his previous seven games, with two homers and six RBIs and is showing signs of coming around.

"You put together at-bats where even if you get behind, you're still able to hit the ball on the barrel," Holliday said. "You start to feel like you can handle most of the pitches. It's a pretty good feeling."

Manager Tony La Russa insists Holliday is a high-average hitter who just happens to be very strong.

"I don't care if he hits no home runs, we need him to hit .320 to .340," LaRussa said. "That would be great for us."

Macha-watch

Brewers manager Ken Macha is under siege in Milwaukee and as a result has been tinkering with the lineup.

In an attempt to shake the Brewers out of their malaise, outfielder Ryan Braun has been bouncing back and forth between the No. 2 and 3 hole. Meanwhile, cleanup hitter Prince Fielder, like Holliday for the Cards, is fifth on the team in RBIs.

Former All-Star Corey Hart is having a career year with a league-leading 13 homers and 33 RBI. Along with Fielder, the 28-year old outfielder is rumored to be trade bait for a quality starter.

And, after relying on 42-year old change-up specialist Trevor Hoffman to open the season, Macha recently appointed John "The Ax" Axford as his new closer. Hoffman is 1-4 with an 11.00 ERA in 19 appearances this season and is now appearing in middle relief.

Just two years removed after posting its first wining season in 2007 (83-79) since 1992, Milwaukee fans are growing impatient.

"I need to take a couple of Advil," Macha said following a recent Brewers' victory.

Rookie rave

The Cards are relying on three rookie arms in the starting rotation because of injuries to Brad Penny and Kyle Loshe.

P.J. Walters and Adam Ottavino join tonight’s starter, Jaime Garcia, to round out the rotation.

And while Walters and Ottavino do not figure to be around after Penny and Loshe return, Garcia (5-2, 1.32) should keep his spot.

The 24-year old southpaw continues to dazzle, leading all NL rookies in victories and strikeouts (51). He has not allowed more than two earned runs in all 10 of his starts this year and is holding left-handed hitters to a microscopic .103 average.

Garcia overcame a shaky start in a 12-4 win over the Reds on Monday. He allowed two runs and three hits in the first inning. The game was delayed for an hour by rain and that’s when Garcia got focused.

"I think in the first inning, sometimes it's kind of like a shaky one for me because I'm learning," Garcia said. "After the delay I was able to stay focused, stay in the game mentally and physically."

He only allowed an unearned run on four hits in the next five innings.

Man up

Lefty hurler Manny Parra will start in place of Dave Bush in this contest. Macha wants to give Parra more starting opportunities and he also wants to start three left-handers in the series against St. Louis. Heading into the series, the Cardinals were batting .272 against right-handed pitchers but only .243 against lefties.

Parra began the season in the bullpen but was given two starts when lefty Doug Davis recently went on the disabled list with inflammation of the heart lining. Parra went four innings against the Reds, allowing one run, and three innings against the Mets, surrendering three runs.

"We've not given Manny a fair shake," Macha said. "We asked him to come in relief in Minnesota (May 22) when he was supposed to start the next day. Manny has had a couple of good games against the Cardinals. We're trying to get him in an advantageous position."

That’s no lie either. In 2009, when Parra went 11-11 with a 6.36 ERA, he was 2-1 with a 2.33 ERA in five starts against the Redbirds. In 12 career outings against the Cards, he owns a 2.97 ERA while going 3-2 in five career team starts at Busch Stadium.

Numbers crunching

- Through Friday’s contest, the Cardinals captured 12 of the last 18 games in the series, but the Brewers stood 13-4 in their last 17 games in St. Louis.

- Garcia is 3-2 in his five home team starts with a 1.50 ERA.

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

On June 6 in Baseball History...

1921 - The Detroit Stars' Bill Gatewood pitches the first no-hitter in Negro League history, defeating the Cuban Stars 4-0.

1941 - The Giants use plastic batting helmets for the first time against the Pirates but lose a doubleheader to the Bucs 5-4 and 4-3. In the nightcap, Pittsburgh pitcher Rip Sewell sets an N.L. record by totaling 11 assists.

1944 - All major-league games are canceled as the country's focus is turned toward Europe while allied forces invade occupied France.

1958 - Ozzie Virgil, acquired from the Giants in January, becomes the first black player to appear in a Tigers game. He goes 1-for-5 in the 11-2 win over Washington.

1971 - Willie Mays strokes a 12th-inning home run off Joe Hoerner of the Phillies in the second game of a doubleheader, his 22nd — and last — career extra-inning homer, a major-league mark.

1975 - Nolan Ryan's bid for a second no-hitter in a row is foiled by Hank Aaron's single in the sixth inning. Ryan gives up one other hit in overpowering the Brewers 6-0.

1983 - The Twins select pitcher Tim Belcher with the first pick in the annual June free-agent draft, but Belcher will reject their $125,000 signing bonus offer and pitch for Team USA in the Pan American Games instead. Belcher will be the first person selected in the January 1984 draft. The Reds take Kurt Stillwell with the second pick. Roger Clemens is taken with 19th pick.

1990 - For the second time this season, Cecil Fielder belts three home runs in a game, as Detroit beats the Indians 6-4. Fielder becomes the fourth A.L. player to have two three-homer games in a season.

1991 - Albert Belle is shipped to the minors for not running out a ground ball in Cleveland's 2-1 loss to the White Sox.

1992 - Eddie Murray of the Mets becomes the all-time leader in RBI by a switch-hitter. He passes Mickey Mantle with his 1,510th RBI.
