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

Cincinnati Reds at Pittsburgh Pirates (125, 8.5)

Pittsburgh southpaw Paul Maholm edged Reds rookie Mike Leake head-to-head two months ago in a 2-1 pitchers' duel, but a lot has changed since then.

Leake is 3-2 since that meeting and has been limited in his innings to protect his young arm. Maholm is 3-5 over the same span and has been thrown to the wolves.

The strain is starting to show for Maholm, who allowed eight earned runs and 11 hits in his last outing while throwing a season-high 120 pitches. He lasted just 5 1/3 innings, the third time he has failed to turn in seven innings of work in his last seven outings.

"He never seemed like he got into much of a rhythm," Pirates manager John Russell said of Maholm after Thursday's 9-3 loss to the Rockies. "The biggest thing was that he had trouble putting hitters away, just didn't quite get the ball where he wanted to. He battled. It just wasn't his day."

Leake, on the other hand, is rested and ready after the Reds allowed him to skip his last turn in the rotation to recover. The Bucs are batting just .224 against righties in their last 10.

Pick: Reds


San Diego Padres at Los Angeles Dodgers


The Dodgers can't seem to find their butts with a baseball bat these days, batting in the .100s in eight of their last 10 games and scoring just 11 runs during their 1-5 road trip.

Three of those came last week against the Padres (.100, .138 and .161), and they somehow managed to steal one of those games by shutting out the Pad Squad.

"We need to go home," Matt Kemp said after Sunday night's shutout loss to the Giants. "We've had to hear a lot of opposing fans yelling at us and we need to get home."

But the Dodgers aren't batting much better in L.A., and they are 0-3 in Vicente Padilla's last starts despite solid outings against everyone except the Padres. Padilla lasted only four innings after allowing four hits and two earned runs.

San Diego makes it a rematch of last week's game by ending Mat Latos to the hill. He's 2-0 in his last three starts with a 1.50 ERA - about what L.A. is averaging over their last 10.

The Dodgers are batting .166 against righties during that span and have scored two or fewer runs in nine of their last 11. One of those exceptions was a relative three-run explosion against Latos, but even a repeat performance tonight won't be enough to win this one.

Pick: Padres


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

Streaking

Roy Halladay, Philadelphia Phillies (12-8, 2.21 ERA)


The Doctor was operating in his last two outings, giving up only one run on 11 hits in 17 combined innings of work. Halladay’s most recent outing was a one-run, six-hit showing which also marked his eighth complete game of the season. The last time he was in Florida, Halladay made magic with a perfect game against the Florida Marlins on May 29.

Mat Latos, San Diego Padres (11-4, 2.45 ERA)

The Padres’ budding ace hasn’t lost a start since June 4 and is 6-0 in his eight starts since that defeat. Latos was dealt a no-decision in his most recent trip to the hill, going five innings while allowing only one earned run on two hits but threw 98 pitches and walked three batters. He hasn’t given up more than three runs in a single start since suffering his last loss and owns a 2-0 record and 1.50 ERA in his last three starts.


Slumping

Paul Maholm, Pittsburgh Pirates (6-9, 4.52 ERA)


The Bucs’ lefty has stumbled in his last two starts, lasting just over 11 innings while giving up 12 hits on 20 combined hits. Maholm went 5 1-3 innings against the Colorado Rockies last Thursday, getting rocked for eight runs on 11 hits. It was the third time in the past seven starts he has failed to pitch into the sixth inning. He is 4-6 with an ERA just south of 5.00 at home this season.


Debuting

Sean West, Florida Marlins (0-0, 0.00 ERA)


The Fish send pitching prospect Sean West to the mound to face Roy Halladay and the Phillies. West made 20 starts for the Marlins in 2009, posting an 8-6 record with a 4.79 ERA. This year, he’s spent his time with Triple-A New Orleans, putting up a 4-3 mark with a 4.12 minor-league ERA. He made one start against Philadelphia last season, allowing two earned runs on seven hits in just four innings of work. He did, however, throw 93 pitches in those four innings.

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

On July 3 in Baseball History...

1912 - The Giants' Rube Marquard nips Nap Rucker and the Dodgers 2-1 to capture his 19th straight game of the season. With two end-of-year wins in 1911, he has 21 in a row in regular season play. Both marks are records.

1950 - With rookie Joe Collins not hitting and Tommy Henrich injured, Casey Stengel asks Joe DiMaggio to play first base in an experiment. In the 7-2 loss he handles 13 chances cleanly.

1965 - Horseplay between Phillies teammates Frank Thomas and Dick Allen turns serious when Thomas swings a bat at Allen. Thomas hits a pinch-homer to tie the game in the eighth inning, but the Reds prevail, 10-8. Following the game, Thomas is released and signs with Houston.

1966 - Pitcher Tony Cloninger hits two grand slams and drives in nine runs as the Braves rout the Giants at Candlestick Park 17-3. Cloninger is the first National League player to hit two grand slams in a game, and his nine RBI set a Major League record for pitchers.

1968 - Luis Tiant registers nineteen strikeouts in ten innings as Cleveland beats Minnesota 1-0. Tiant sets two modern major-league records: most strikeouts in a ten-inning game and 32 strikeouts in consecutive games. He also ties the modern major league record of 41 strikeouts in three successive appearances.

1970 - In **** ceremonies, California's Clyde Wright is inducted into the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) Hall of Fame for his pitching while at Carson-Newman College. He then hurls a no-hitter against Oakland, winning 4-0. Reggie Jackson's 400-foot shot to dead center in the seventh is caught.

1974 - Pitching in his record 13th consecutive game for the Dodgers, Mike Marshall saves Tommy John's 4-1 win over the Reds in the first game of a doubleheader.

1983 - The Rangers explode for 12 runs in the 15th inning of a 16-4 win over the A's, setting a new major-league record for runs in a single extra inning.

1988 - Oakland's Gene Nelson steals a base while pinch-running for Don Baylor in a 9-8, 16-inning win over Toronto, becoming the first American League pitcher to steal a base since Blue Moon Odom in 1973.

Daily Sports Roundup: August 3

Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Rangers gun for a win in Seattle, the Mets and Braves continue a series in Atlanta, and the Mystics look for a road win over the Dream.

Meeting up on the diamond . . .

The American League schedule for Tuesday has a doubleheader between the White Sox and Tigers in Detroit, plus the Angels at Baltimore, Toronto at the Yankees, Minnesota at Tampa Bay, Cleveland at Boston, Kansas City at Oakland, and Texas at Seattle. Colby Lewis (9-7, 3.40 ERA) is slated to take on Jason Vargas (6-5, 3.20 ERA) in that Rangers/Mariners matchup. Righthander Lewis was a hard-luck loser against the Athletics last time out, surrendering just one run on five hits over his seven innings of work (and fanning eight). Lefthander Vargas was knocked around by the White Sox in his most recent start, giving up five runs on eight hits in just 4 1-3 innings in that game.

Meanwhile, the National League on Tuesday offers up Cincinnati at Pittsburgh, Philadelphia at Florida, Milwaukee at the Cubs, Houston at St. Louis, Washington at Arizona, San Diego at the Dodgers, San Francisco at Colorado, and the Mets at Atlanta. R.A. Dickey (7-4, 2.32 ERA) will face off against Derek Lowe (10-9, 4.58 ERA) in that last matchup. Righthander Dickey dominated the Cardinals in his most recent start, holding them scoreless on four hits over 8 1-3 innings of work. Righthander Lowe is coming off a loss to the Nationals in which he gave up four runs on five hits over five innings of work, fanning three. Atlanta is just 1-6 over Lowe's last seven trips to the hill.

Rounding out the Roundup . . .

As well, there are five games on the WNBA's schedule for Tuesday, with New York at Indiana, Phoenix at San Antonio, Seattle at Tulsa, Connecticut at Minnesota, and Washington at Atlanta. The Mystics and Dream just met on July 21, with Washington pulling out an 82-72 home win as a 3.5-point favorite. Crystal Langhorne led the way with 24 points for the Mystics in that contest, while Matee Ajavon added 15 points off the bench. Angel McCoughtry scored a team-high 23 points in that defeat for the Dream.

Bettors' best friend: Tuesday's wagering tips

Lines off the board

Brewers at Cubs: Total is off pending wind speed and direction at Wrigley Field.

Lines to keep an eye on

Reds at Pirates: Total opened at 8.5 but has dropped to 8 at most books.

Weather to watch

Giants at Rockies: 50 percent chance of thunderstorms.

White Sox at Tigers: 40 percent chance of thunderstorms.

Reds at Pirates: 40 percent chance of thunderstorms.

Brewers at Cubs: 60 percent chance of showers.

Nationals at Diamondbacks: 30 percent chance of thunderstorms.

Phillies at Marlins: 40 percent chance of thunderstorms.

Who's hot

Phillies are 9-2 in their last 11.

Rays are 9-1 in their last 10.

Twins have won eight in a row.

White Sox are 6-1 in their last seven.

Astros are 6-1 in their last seven.

Who's not

Orioles are 1-8 in last nine.

Indians have lost six of their last seven.

Tigers are 1-6 last seven.

Brewers have lost five in a row.

Cubs are 1-6 in last seven.

Key stat

23-3 - The Chicago White Sox's record as favorites over their last 26 games.

Injury that shouldn't be overlooked

Cincinnati Reds slugger Joey Votto teaked his wrist during the weeend series with the Braves and was held out of Monday's starting lineup against the Pirates with a tweaked wrist. Miguel Cairo started at first base in place and there's no word on how long Votto might be on the shelf. Votto is batting .322 with 27 home runs and is a big reason why the Big Red Machine is rolling this season.

Game of the day

Twins at Rays (-145, 8.5)

Notable quotable

"I'm shooting for 2,500 (yards), but I'll be happy with anything over the record."

Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson, who rushed for 2,006 yards last season, said of his goal for this year. No back has rushed for more than 2,000 yards in a season twice and Eric Dickeron holds the all-time record with 2,150.

Tips and notes

The Atlanta Braves placed second baseman Martin Prado on the 15-day disabled list with a broken knuckle on his right pinkie finger on Monday, a huge blow to their offense. Prado was leading the National League in hits with 138. The second-closest Brave to that mark is rookie Jason Heyward with 86. Prado led the team with 75 runs scored, with Heyward again the team's runner-up with 58. Look for the Braves to struggle offensively in his absence.

The New York Mets have decided to skip Hisanori Takahashi's next start in the rotation. The team was debating whther to spell Takahashi or Jonathon Niese - a bad sign when a team has to choose between which struggling starter to rest. Takahashi (7-5, 4.28 ERA) was scheduled to throw Thursday but the Mets have not yet named his replacement, likely a minor-league callup. Niese (7-5, 3.78 ERA) is scheduled to make his next start Friday against the Phillies.

The PGA Championship rounded out its 156-man field on Monday, extending invitations to Ben Curtis and Boo Weekley despite the fact that they fell out of the top 100 in the World Golf Rankings. The PGA offered special exemptions to the two based on a new rule that calls for the inclusion of former U.S. Ryder Cup team members. Weekley finished ninth at last week's Greebrier Classic, his best showing of the season, while Curtis has a sixth-place finish at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

Tuesday's six-pack

-- Chipper Jones now has 43 career homers against the Mets.

-- Prince Fielder was 5-7 with five RBI Monday; Brewers had 26 hits- their #'s 2-4 hitters were a combined 14-21.

-- It has to be really depressing to root for the Pirates.

-- Interesting race in AL East, but Rays/Bronx are 6.5 games up in the Wild Card race, so they're probably both making the playoffs.

-- Rangers have a gaudy 8-game lead in AL West, five games more than any other division leader in big leagues.

-- Giants are Wild Card leader in NL, 2.5 games over St Louis and 3.5 ahead of the injury-riddled Phillies.


*******************************************


Tuesday's List of 13: Clearing out a cluttered mind........

13) Trading deadline often defines contenders/pretenders; Mets look like a dead team, as do the Dodgers, even though they added Lilly/Theriot. Hard to believe LA is now nine games behind the pitching-rich Padres.

12) Home plate ump Barrett really helped Clayton Richard in 10-5 San Diego win Monday night; the Padres' lefty threw 105 pitches, with 31 of them called strikes (only 16th game all year where starting pitcher had 30 or more pitches called strikes). Dodgers swung/missed at Richard pitches only three times in 5.1 IP and got 10 hits on 18 balls in play.

11) Cubs lost 17-2 Friday night, 18-1 Monday; there are nine weeks left to go this season, but Cubs have quit. Management should say thanks to Lou Piniella, then send him home and let Ryne Sandberg manage the club the rest of the season.

10) Winner of Greenbrier Classic makes more than winner of Canadian Open, and twice as much as the winner of Reno-Tahoe Open? Hmmmm

9) Has a team ever won the Stanley Cup and then dumped its goalie like the Blackhawks did? Just seems unusual, thats all.

8) ESPN will focus totally on Cincinnati's attention junkie WRs this fall, but the best story in the Queen City is that both Bengal coordinators are friends who have coached together on and off for the last 30 years, since they were on a staff together at I-AA Weber State. Its togetherless like this that can help a staff stick together, which makes the team stronger.

7) Tampa Bay rookie Hellickson was tough in his big league debut, with a win over Minnesota (two runs/seven IP/107 PT) but remember Morneau and Mauer didn't play for the Twins. Kid looked polished though.

6) Rays got mocked for adding Chad Qualls from Arizona, but Qualls has retired four of first five batters he's faced for Tampa Bay.

5) Indians' rookie catcher Santana hurt his knee in a homeplate collision; looks like Ryan Howard might be headed to DL with sprained ankle, not what I wanted to hear, with fantasy playoffs only two weeks away.

4) Joe West's crew has Washington-Arizona series this week; Monday's game was 2:19. West is bad news for concessionaires everywhere.

3) Trevor Cahill blanked Royals on three hits Monday, the third complete game in a row for Oakland, first time they've done that in 10 years. Young Cahill has the lowest batting average against of any AL starter.

2) A's outfield combo of Davis-Crisp covers lot of ground; when they put Gross in for defense late in games, they have a terrific defensive outfield, which is big part of why their pitching has improved dramatically. That, and fact that their fine young pitchers are maturing.

1) Its August 3rd and the A's are over .500. They probably won't make it to the playoffs, but if they could finish over .500, that would be a terrific accomplishment, and I'm dead serious.
