LA Angels Battle Yankees Before Tackling Tigers

All-star week concludes Sunday and Don Best Sports analyst Pat Williams is keeping his focus on the two marquee series of the weekend in New York and Cincinnati.

The Angels and Yankees will wrap up their series in the Bronx with a mound matchup between Jered Weaver and Ivan Nova. TBS will have the broadcast from Yankee Stadium starting at 1:00 p.m. (ET). Don Best is sending this game out with the Halos priced at -115 and 8½ for the total.

Weaver (10-1, 1.96) continued his outstanding season against the Baltimore Orioles in Anaheim a week ago, tossing the first eight innings of a 3-0 Halos shutout. Three of Weaver's four starts since coming off the DL have ended in shutouts for the Angels staff, and the team is working on a streak of seven consecutive wins with their ace on the mound.

Nova (10-3, 3.92) coaxed his ERA under four last Sunday in Boston with six innings of 6-hit, 1-run baseball. The victory ended a 2-game skid for New York with Nova on the mound, only the second time in his career that the Yankees have lost back-to-back starts by the Dominican.

The Angels have been able to hit Nova pretty well in two clashes this season, slapping 16 hits and three homers while scoring nine times over the course of 12-2/3 innings. Still, both games went into the win column for the Yankees.

Weaver's only 2012 assignment vs. the Yanks was his final appearance before back trouble pushed him to the disabled list. Four of his last six starts against New York have gone into the win column for Mike Scioscia and the Angels, including Game 3 of the 2009 ALCS.

Porkopolis is the setting for ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball as the finale between the Reds and Cardinals at Great American Ball Park gets prime-time treatment. The mound duel pits St. Louis' Jake Westbrook against Cincy's Johnny Cueto who is the $1.45 favorite in the matchup with a 7½-run total.

Westbrook (7-7, 3.75) has run both hot and cold this season, and has been mostly hot recently. St. Louis has won four of his last five starts, a stretch that includes road victories at Detroit and Miami, and the veteran right-hander's ERA during the stretch is a solid 2.67.

Cueto (10-5, 2.39) grabbed his 10th win of the season in San Diego just before the all-star break after Reds hitters failed to support him in tough-luck setbacks in San Francisco and Los Angeles. He suffered the same fate in St. Louis earlier this year, tossing seven innings and allowing just one run only to get a no-decision in Cincinnati's 2-1 loss.

Glancing ahead to Monday, the Angels continue their post-break road trip with the first of four games in Detroit against the Tigers. Los Angeles is listing Ervin Santana for the game while the Tigers have yet to officially announce their starting pitcher for the 7:00 p.m. (ET) contest to be televised by ESPN.

Santana (4-9, 5.75) is hoping to get a fresh start after a horrible month of June (5.85 ERA) and even worse beginning to July. The righty was soundly whipped in Cleveland on July 4, surrendering eight runs and never getting out of the second inning.

Don Best is projecting Rick Porcello to get the nod for Jim Leyland and the Tigers. A bicep injury forced him out of his last start (July 4), not to mention the fact he was no mystery to Twins hitters in that outing with Minnesota coming up with 12 hits and three runs during Porcello's 3-2/3 innings of work.

Bettors will need to follow Don Best throughout the weekend to monitor Porcello's availability for Monday's contest.

Sunday's MLB Notes

July 15, 2012

St. Louis at Cincinnati (ESPN, 8:05 p.m. ET)

After losing four of the first five regular season meetings against the Cardinals, the Reds have won three straight in this head-to-head series, including both battles this weekend. Fortunately for St. Louis, the Reds' ace Johnny Cueto was scratched from this start due to a blister on his pitching hand. Instead, Cincinnati will hand the ball to Homer Bailey (7-6, 4.14 ERA) tonight as the team goes for the three-game home sweep.

The Reds have gone 9-8 in Bailey's appearances this season, which includes a 7-2 mark at home. He's received an average of six runs per game from his offense, which includes 14 in the last two games, both victories. Playing at home has been difficult for Bailey lately, as he's surrendered 17 earned runs in his last four appearances at Great American Ball Park.

St. Louis will counter with Jake Westbrook (7-7, 3.75 ERA), who closed the first-half of the season with a 3-2 loss to the Marlins on July 6 but the Cardinals had won all four of his previous starts. During this five-game span, Westbrook has gone six innings or more in each of the appearances and only gave up 10 earned runs. His ERA has been better on the road (2.94) than at home (4.53) but St. Louis only managed to go 4-4 in his eight appearances. Unfortunately for the Cardinals and Westbrook, the run support (3.6) outside of Busch Stadium hasn't been there for him. When you combine the weak offensive numbers and Westbrook's production on the road, you can see why the 'under' has produced a 5-2 mark.

Even though the pitching numbers point to Westbrook and the Cardinals, the Reds opened as short home favorites (-120) for Sunday's finale.

The total opened at nine runs. Bailey has seen the 'over' go 10-6 on the season, 6-3 at home. The 'under' has gone 5-2-1 in the first eight meetings this season between the pair.

Sunday's Sweeps

The below teams have won the first two games of their series this weekend and will try to finish off the three-game sweep today.

Cubs over Diamondbacks - Arizona swept a four-game set from Chicago in mid-June so we could be seeing a revenge sweep here for the Cubs. The D-Backs have scored one run in each of the first two games and will face the inconsistent Matt Garza (4-7, 4.32 ERA) this afternoon.

Braves over Mets - New York will have Johan Santana squaring off against Atlanta's Ben Sheets, who hasn't pitched in the majors since 2010. Sheets went 0-1 with a 5.06 ERA in two starts at the Double-A level before being called up.

Reds over Cardinals - See Above

Yankees over Angels - Los Angeles has to be happy with Jered Weaver on the hill and bettors can grab him at a real short price (-105). The Yankees will toss Ivan Nova, who's been tough to beat but he's only pitched three times (1-2, 4.67 ERA) at home this season.

A's over Twins - Minnesota will be trying to avoid the sweep at home and it could be difficult with the way Brian Duensing (1-5, 4.11 ERA) has been pitching. Plus, Oakland's offense is hot lately. They've posted 15 runs the last two outings against the Twins.

These are some of the games are VegasInsider.com handicappers are playing today. Check out all of their pro baseball selections here!

Ed Meyer - Houston Astros

The Giants are in a soft spot, giving the Astros plenty of line value here. We'll grab the big dog. In Norris' last start, he went seven innings and allowed two runs, but the 'Stros lost 2-0. This is actually a fine spot to invest in Bud Norris as Houston is 5-0 in franchise history as a road 170+ dog with Norris when they lost his last start. Matt Cain is also off a fine outing in which his team lost, as the bullpen allowed three runs in a 6-5 loss in Washington. One can certainly theorize that Matt Cain will be out to "avenge" the team loss in his last start, but the results tell a completely different story. The Giants are a surprising 12-30 with Matt Cain when he went at more than five innings and gave up six or fewer hits in his last start but the Giants lost nonetheless. San Francisco simply does not have the killer instinct in this spot. The Giants are a soft 2-8 as a 150-plus home favorite vs a team that has lost at least their last two games including 0-4 if they are a favorite of more than 170. Norris has the potential to throw a gem and the Giants will be looking ahead to their road trip.

Houston 4 San Francisco 3

Stephen Nover - Over 7.5 Dodgers/Padres

Jason Marquis and Chad Billingsley are not dependable starters. Both are in bad form, too. They are paired here with a total of less than 8 1/2. That puts me in action on the over. Marquis is 0-4 with a 4.60 ERA in his last five starts. His ERA is 6.23 in his last three starts. Marquis doesn't have a good recent history when pitching at Dodger Stadium either with a 5.79 ERA in his last three outings there. The Dodgers are much more dangerous with Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier back in the lineup. Kemp is batting .444 in his last 14 games against the Padres and Ethier is hitting .484 in his last nine home games versus San Diego. Billingsley is 0-3 with a 5.00 ERA in his last three starts. He has a 6.21 ERA during his past five starts. The Padres are much stronger offensively away from Petco Park.

Vince Akins - St. Louis

For the Cardinals, this is almost a must win game. A loss means they fall at least 4 games back of two teams in the NL Central and that's a lot of ground to start making up. Look for St. Louis to salvage one game here. This is the final game of a three game set win Cincinnati looking to sweep. The Cardinals are 26-8 since April 13, 2011 when playing a night game and it is the last game of the series for a net profit of $1952. Also the Cardinals are 7-3 in their last 10 games when looking to avoid a three-game sweep. Cincinnati meanwhile is just 7-11 when going for the three-game sweep. Cincinnati won a nail bitter yesterday, 3-2, in 10 innings. Both teams had plenty of chances with Cincinnati leaving 18 on base individually and St. Louis stranding 22. The Reds are 11-26 since April 07, 2011 after a win in which they left 18+ men on base for a net profit of $1733 when playing against. Cincinnati was able to overcome a 5-1 differential in walks in that game. The Reds are 4-12 since April 07, 2011 after a win in which they allowed 5+ walks and it is not the first game of a series for a net profit of $961 when playing against. Jake Westbrook goes for St. Louis. They lost in his last start to Miami, 3-2, after holding an early lead. The Cardinals are 6-0 since April 13, 2011 when Jake Westbrook starts when he is off a start in which their team scored first and lost for a net profit of $665. Homer Bailey goes for Cincinnati after winning his last two starts. The Cardinals are 6-0 since April 13, 2011 when Jake Westbrook starts on the road vs a team that won their starters last two starts for a net profit of $695. However, he is going to be asked to pick up the bullpen today after Cincinnati used six pitches yesterday. The Reds are 0-6 since May 26, 2011 when Homer Bailey starts when their team used 6+ pitchers yesterday for a net profit of $640 when playing against.

Westbrook tries to stop charging Reds Sunday

ST. LOUIS CARDINALS (46-42)

at CINCINNATI REDS (49-38)


First pitch: Sunday, 8:05 p.m. EDT
Line: Cincinnati -150, St. Louis +140, Total: 8½

The sizzling-hot Reds aim to finish off a sweep of the Cardinals and win their sixth straight game on Sunday night.

Although Cincinnati is on the verge of a sweep, these NL Central foes have played a very even series in the past three seasons, with St. Louis holding a 22-19 advantage, and the Reds winning 11 of 20 at home. This season, each club has won four of the eight meetings, but there is a big difference in the way the two starting pitchers have performed in this series in their careers. Cards right-hander Jake Westbrook is 3-1 with a respectable 3.83 ERA and 1.36 WHIP in eight starts against the Reds, while Cincinnati righty Homer Bailey is just 2-6 (team is 2-8) with a bloated 5.72 ERA and 1.53 WHIP in 10 starts versus St. Louis. These numbers include when the two faced each other on April 9, with Westbrook not allowing an earned run in seven strong innings and Bailey serving up three longballs in a 7-1 Cardinals win. With the money line so lopsided in favor of the streaking Reds, the pick here is ST. LOUIS to avoid getting swept by its division rival.

This two-star FoxSheets trend also backs the Cards:

ST. LOUIS is 48-25 (65.8%, +24.1 Units) against the money line on the road when the total is 8.5 to 10 over the last 2 seasons. The average score was ST. LOUIS 6.2, OPPONENT 4.4 - (Rating = 2*).

Westbrook (7-7, 3.75 ERA, 1.33 WHIP) has pitched very well in his past six outings, throwing five quality starts. He’s gone 3-2 with a 2.95 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in this span, compiling three times as many strikeouts (21) as walks (7). Westbrook has also been quite effective away from home. He’s just 3-4, getting a total of five runs of support in the four defeats, but has a 2.94 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and .232 opponents’ BA in these eight road starts. Westbrook has controlled many of the Reds big bats over the years, including Joey Votto (1-for-9), Jay Bruce (3-for-12), Drew Stubbs (0-for-6) and Ryan Ludwick (2-for-8), who hit a walk-off homer to win Saturday’s game. However, Westbrook might want to pitch around Brandon Phillips (7-for-17) and especially Chris Heisey, who is 3-for-8 with three solo homers in his career versus Westbrook.

Bailey (7-6, 4.14 ERA, 1.30 WHIP) entered the All-Star Break with two sterling performances, both on the road. He beat both the Dodgers and Padres, posting a 2.45 ERA, 0.89 WHIP, 15 strikeouts and one walk in these 14.2 innings. However, he has not enjoyed pitching at home this season, going 1-4 with a 5.86 ERA and 1.63 WHIP in eight starts in Cincinnati. He’s given up 12 homers in this 43-inning span, and has allowed at least one homer in eight of his past 10 starts overall. This could be a major problem, considering the Cardinals have smacked 50 homers on the road this year, the second-most in the National League. Five St. Louis batters have a career OPS greater than 1.100 in their careers versus Bailey -- John Jay (1.768 OPS in 7 AB), Lance Berkman (1.232 OPS in 9 AB), Matt Holliday (1.228 OPS, 2 HR in 18 AB), David Freese (1.182 OPS, 2 HR in 11 AB) and Yadier Molina (1.178 OPS, 1 HR in 9 AB). Berkman, who has not started a game since May 19, was used as a pinch-hitter on Saturday and expects to be in the starting lineup on Sunday. The one thing in Bailey’s favor is that the Reds have a superior bullpen (2.71 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, 69% save percentage) to the Cardinals (4.46 ERA, 1.37 WHIP, 59% save percentage).

Sunday's betting tips: D-backs lose bite without injured slugger

Weather watch

It will be hot and humid in Baltimore where the Orioles host the Tigers Sunday, with temperatures in the low 90s and a chance of thunderstorms in the forecast for Camden Yards. There is a 57 percent chance of rain Sunday afternoon.

Who’s hot?

Detroit Tigers – Heading into Saturday’s slate, the Tigers have won six in a row spanning the All-Star break. Detroit won Game 1 7-2 on Friday night.

Tony Stewart – Stewart won last weekend’s race at Daytona and heads to New Hampshire, where he has three wins and 14 Top-5 finishes and an average finish of 11.54 – third best among active drivers.

Who’s not?

San Diego Padres – If you don’t know the Padres stink by now, maybe their four-game losing skid heading into Saturday will give you a clue. San Diego, which lost to the Dodgers 2-1 Friday, preceded this slide with a six-game winning run.

Philadelphia Phillies – The Phillies have lost five in a row heading into Saturday’s schedule. Philadelphia has easily been the most disappointing team in the majors this summer at 37-51 and down -26.21 units.

Key stat

8 - Hendrick Motorsports has won eight races at Loudon heading into Sunday’s Lenox Tools 301. Hendrick’s standout Jimmie Johnson is the race favorite at +500.

Game of the Day

St. Louis Cardinals at Cincinnati Reds, 8 p.m. ET

Injury not to be overlooked

Jason Kubel, Arizona Diamondbacks – Arizona’s slugger was scratched from Saturday’s lineup due to hamstring tightness. Kubel leads the D-backs with 15 home runs, hitting .293 BA with 60 RBIs – 10th in the majors.

Notable quotable

“With all the computers, the cybergenics (sabermetrics?), whatever they do, I think I rate the lowest possible in those things. The things I do don’t show up in box scores. Sacrifice bunting doesn’t make any sense to do. They don’t look at the guy going first to third or taking that extra bag.” – Philadelphia Phillies OF Juan Pierre told the Philadelphia Daily News.

Tips and notes

-- Sprint Cup driver Denny Hamlin is the most successful active driver at New Hampshire, owning an average finish of ninth. Hamlin has one win, five Top 5s, and eight Top 10s in just a dozen starts at Loudon. He’s the second overall favorite at +600 for Sunday’s event.

-- The New York Red Bull will have striker Sebastien Le Toux available versus Seattle Sunday after acquiring the 2010 MLS Best XI selection in a trade with Vancouver Friday. The Frenchman recorded 25 goals and 20 assists in 62 starts with the Philadelphia Union in 2010 and 2011. He had four goals and one assist with the White Caps this year.

-- Umpire Mike Winters is scheduled to be calling balls and strikes in the series finale between Houston and San Francisco Sunday. He has shown a slight lean towards the under this season, with games finishing 7-10 over/under when Winters is behind home plate. However, the under has cashed in 23 times in the last 33 Sunday games in which Winters was making the calls.

-- The Rogers Centre is rocking in 2012 and it’s got to be because of the Blue Jays’ new retro-inspired jerseys. According to the team, 1,107,908 fans have attended the first 42 home games. That’s 175,366 more than the count at this point in the season last year. Toronto, which ranks just 20th in attendance in the majors, is 23-20 (down -2.31 units) and 23-18-2 over/under heading into Saturday’s home tilt with Cleveland.

Armadillo: Sunday's six-pack

Odds on which QB will pass for the most yards this season........

7-2-- Tom Brady, Patriots-- Belichick will retire when he does.

7-2-- Drew Brees, Saints-- His odds should be going down soon.

5-1-- Aaron Rodgers, Packers-- Weather in December won't help.

5-1-- Matthew Stafford, Lions-- Had to doublecheck his odds.

6-1-- Philip Rivers, Chargers-- Little brother is a backup QB at LSU.

8-1-- Eli Manning, Giants-- Durability is his greatest strength.


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


Armadillo: Sunday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but........

13) Wild ending in Dodger Stadium last night, as Everth Cabrera stole home with two out in the 9th inning, then Will Venable scored the go-ahead run on a wild throw, as the Padres beat Los Angeles 7-6.

Closer Kenley Jansen wasn't paying attention, then panicked and tossed the ball over the catcher's head. Umpire Greg Gibson didn't see the catcher miss the ball, and originally called Cabrera out, but quickly corrected his error.

12) Mile or so away from where I am typing this, they're playing the Main Event at the World Series of Poker at the Rio Casino. They're were down to 287 players going into Saturday's action-- actor Kevin Pollak, who was in A Few Good Men, was still alive. Pretty good for an amateur.

11) NCAA people are claiming that by the end of what should be their sophomore year, approximately only 60% of basketball recruits are still at the college they originally went to. A little alarming.

10) Not sure why Kyrie Irving was practicing with the Cavaliers' summer team, but he broke his hand slamming a padded wall, so his summer is done, as far as playing ball is concerned.

9) Knicks traded for Raymond Felton from Portland, fueling speculation of their letting Jeremy Lin go play with the Rockets. Problem for Lin is that his biggest endorsement deal is with Volvo; Houston plays its home games in the Toyota Center.

There is speculation that the Knicks could let Lin go because they're pretty confident they can sign Chris Paul as a free agent next summer. Great.

8) Knicks didn't match Landry Fields' offer sheet with Toronto, so he's off to play for the Raptors.

7) Tim Lincecum pitched eight shutout innings to preserve his spot in the Giants' rotation, but the bullpen blew the save. San Francisco scored in the 12th inning to make Houston 9-34 on the road this season.

6) Yu Darvish has been pretty good this season (10-6, 3.96), but in three starts against Seattle, he is 0-2, 9.56, allowing 17 runs in 16 IP.

5) Mets have to do something about their bullpen; they're only 2.5 games out of the second Wild Card spot, but their relief pitchers are killing them.

4) Jeremy Guthrie is 1-5, 9.23 at Coors Field, 2-4, 3.67 on road. Exactly why did Colorado trade for him?

3) Was surprised to see that Indiana (5-1) is the betting favorite to win the national championship in college basketball next spring.

2) If the baseball playoffs started Sunday morning, these teams would be in the field of 10:
NL: Washington-Pittsburgh-San Francisco/Cincinnati-Atlanta.
AL: Bronx-White Sox-Texas/Baltimore-Angels

1) Have to admit, its very cool to look out my window as I'm typing this and see the lights of the Las Vegas strip. Life is good.

Sunday's streaking and slumping starting pitchers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Streaking

Jered Weaver, Los Angeles Angels (10-1, 1.96 ERA)

Weaver is making sure he’s not passed up for the AL Cy Young this season, stringing together four straight wins and going 5-0 in his last seven appearances. The Halos’ hurler gave up just one earned run in his 27 2-3 innings heading into the break.

A.J. Burnett, Pittsburgh Pirates (10-2, 3.68 ERA)

Burnett’s tenure with the Bucs got off to a rough start, breaking his face during spring training and then going 1-2 in his first three starts for Pittsburgh. Since then, the veteran righty is 9-0 in his last dozen trips to the mound. However, while Burnett has been superb at PNC Park (6-0, 2.10 ERA), he’s not as sharp on the road (4-2, 6.55 ERA).


Slumping

Stephen Strasburg, Washington Nationals (9-4, 2.82 ERA)

The Nationals are sticking to their guns when it comes to the innings limit for Strasburg, which doesn’t sit well with the budding ace. The right-hander has dropped three straight decisions after winning six in row, but that skid has more to do with a lack of run support and bad bullpen than Strasburg.

Josh Beckett, Boston Red Sox (4-7, 4.43 ERA)

Beckett hasn’t picked up a “W” since May 20, going 0-3 in the following six starts. The BoSox ace has traditionally suffered a dip in performance after the break, which doesn’t bode well for Red Sox Nation. Luckily, he owns the Rays with a 10-4 career record and 2.82 ERA versus Tampa Bay.

Sunday Night Baseball: Cardinals at Reds
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

St. Louis Cardinals at Cincinnati Reds (-155, 8.5)

The Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Cardinals have the spotlight on Sunday night as they continue to battle for supremacy in a crowded National League Central division.

GO WEST YOUNG MAN

Jake Westbrook gets the start for the Cardinals. He has pitched consistently for St. Louis over the past month after a rough patch in May. The righty has allowed two runs or less in three of his last four starts.

Westbrook has been able to keep the walks down which has been the key to his recent success. Westbrook has walked two hitters or less in seven straight games and eight of his last 10 starts overall.

He hasn’t faced the Reds since April 9, when he picked up a win giving up only one run and three hits in seven innings. Westbrook has made three starts in Cincinnati between his time with St. Louis and Cleveland, allowing just three earned runs total in those outings for a fantastic 1.45 ERA and 1.13 WHIP.

TAKE THAT TONY

Johnny Cueto may have a little extra motivation for this game as he gets over the snub he received from former Cardinals' manager Tony La Russa.

Cueto has been great for the Reds this season and rightfully deserved a spot on the NL All-Star team. He has allowed two runs or less in six of his last 10 starts and hasn't really been hit hard since his May 25 appearance at home against Colorado, when he allowed five runs and 11 hits.

In a span of six days in April, the Reds starter faced the Cardinals twice, giving up only four runs and 14 hits in 12 innings of work for a solid 3.00 ERA and 1.33 WHIP. The Reds have now won three straight home starts versus the Cardinals with Cueto on the mound since last season.

CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH

Both teams enter Sunday night's game pretty healthy.

The Cardinals are without Jaime Garcia, Chris Carpenter and Kyle McClellan. They may have Lance Berkman in time for Sunday night's contest.

Cincinnati's injury list features Ryan Madson and Nick Masset from their bullpen. Scott Rolen is working his way back from injury getting some work on Friday.

TRENDS

Cardinals are 4-1 in Westbrook's last five Sunday starts
Cardinals are 1-4 in Westbrook's last five road starts vs. a team with a winning record
Reds are 11-4 in their last 15 Sunday games
Reds are 18-7 in Cueto's last 25 starts

HITTERS TO WATCH

Jon Jay 10-for-21 vs. Cueto
Matt Holliday 9-for-27 vs. Cueto
Brandon Phillips 7-for-17 vs. Westbrook
Jay Bruce 3-for-12 vs. Westbrook
