CLEVELAND INDIANS(Jimenez) +140 over Royals(Davis)-----hard to take Jimenez here with his wildness.   But I'll do it......for fun, at least.(Win 9-0.......Wow,  Jimenez throws a 7inn 3-hitter with only 2 walks.......Ryan Raburn 4-4, 2HR.......Michael Brantley 3-5)

NEW YORK YANKEES(Hughes) -107 over Toronto Blue Jays(Dickey)-----Hughes is coming off 2 good starts and is walking only 1 every 5innings.   Dickey is walking 1 every 2innings.(Win 3-2......Lyle Overbay 2-3, HR,  Brennan Boesch an HR for Yankees)

LA DODGERS(Magil) over Brewers(Peralta) parlayed with TAMPA BAY(Moore) over Cws(Floyd) +220------Matt did really well yesterday:  Matt Carpenter 2-4, HR,  Matt Dominguez 3R for Houston,  Matt Joyce 2-5 HR and Matt Tuiasosopo 5 RBI + HR for Tigers.....Matt Holliday hit some in that Cardinals beatdown.  So,  looks like this is Matt Magil's debut....we'll see.(Lose 6-4......Brewers win with Gomez going 3-5;  Matt Moore did good.)

LA DODGERS(Beckett) -142 over Milwaukee Brewers(Burgos)(Win 7-5)
LA DODGERS(Beckett) -1.5(+155) over Milwaukee Brewers(Burgos)-----Brewers are on a 9-1 streak.....in LA.......hmm,  Jason Bay went 2-3 yesterday......if its Angelic,  with Gabby Sanchez going 2-4 w/ 3 RBI + HR yesterday for Pittsburgh.(Win 7-5...........wow,  4 LAD errors and they still cover the run-line.)

CHICAGO WHITE SOX(Sale) -129 over Tampa Bay Rays(Hellickson)-----Chris Sale,  of Florida Gulf Coast fame,  has been rocked once.....but his other starts have been good.   Pinch-Hit Game Winning RBI yesterday by Yorvit Torrealba----that means WHITE Sox so let's see what we can do today with Veni Vidi Viciedo.(Win 5-2.......HR Adam Dunn,  raising his average to .108)

BOSTON RED SOX(Buchholz) -1.5(-140) over Houston Astros(Humber)----Humber has actually had 3 decent starts----aside from his last one where he didn't finish the 1st inning.   However,  look at the late information:  Phillipe Aumont takes the Loss for the Phillies today while,  in Detroit,  Phil Coke throws a Wild Pitch,  walks in a run and takes yet another Loss.(Win 7-2........David Ortiz 3-4, HR...........Mike Carp 2-4 for Boston)

CINCINNATI(Leake) over Cubs(Wood) parlayed with MILWAUKEE(Lohse) over Padres(Marquis) +190------Although Wood has done well,  the Reds are hitting .266,  much better than the Cubs.  Milwaukee is 9-8,  better than I thought they would do,  and with Lohse having only walked 1 in 20inn,  I'll give em a chance.(Win 5-4 and 7-1.......GWRBI Cesar Izturis,  Jay Bruce 2-5, HR for Reds;  Betancourt an HR for Milwaukee)

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES(Kendrick) -109 over St Louis Cardinals(Westbrook)-----Despite Westbrook having not given up a run yet,  I think the Phillies,  at 7-11,  are due to not lose this series at home 3-1.........which is what it would be if the Phillies don't win this.(Win 7-3.......PHRBI Laynce Nix.....GWRBI Ben Revere.......HR Erik Kratz)

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS(Cahill) +105 over Colorado Rockies(De La Rosa)----Rockies are hitting .289 so far and they are 12-4........Arizona is only hitting .257 but,  with new players Cody Ross,  Didi Gregorius----and SF's Gregor Blanco went 3-4 yesterday----and Martin Prado,  we see Russell Martin coming on for the Pirates with consecutive 2-3 days.(Lose 4-3......Rockies too strong;  Oh,  it was the Indians who celebrated Hitler's birthday today,  not Arizona)

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES(Halladay) +110 over St Louis Cardinals(Garcia)-----Blow 'em out.(Win 8-2........There you go,  there you go.   Humberto Quintero,  Mayberry and Revere all 2-3.   Wow,  a team actually did what I told it to do.)

METS(Harvey) over Nationals(Strasburg) parlayed with TORONTO(Morrow) over Yankees(Pettitte) parlayed with GIANTS(Bumgarner) over Padres(Volquez)----Blue Jays really aren't hitting--so that's a risk there---but they are at home.   Gotta give Harvey a look:  6 hits allowed in 22inn.(Lose 9-4.....yea,  you can't really bet on the Blue Jays.....the team isn't hitting and Morrow is, apparently,  not very good.  Bad bet.)

TEXAS(Ogando) over Cubs(Villanueva) parlayed with ST LOUIS(Wainwright) over Phillies(Hamels) parlayed with BOSTON(Lester) over Cleveland(McAllister) +450-----Lester and Wainwright are dominating and the White Sox victory yesterday was significant as Alexei Ramirez went 2-3 as Alex Rios hit an HR so Texas,  having been host to a seismic-2.1 Ferti-Caust,  making its voice heard,  looks good with Alexi Ogando.(Lose 6-2.............Awwww, come on!  Boston blows up and the Red Sox win 4-in-a-row;  Texas blows up(a lot bigger) and the Rangers LOSE??  That's an inconsistency.)

BALTIMORE ORIOLES(Gonzalez) +115 over Tampa Bay Rays(Price)-----Orioles did not get the job done yesterday but Mike Leake!!!  3-4 hitting + a 7inn 3-hitter yesterday for the Reds.  Wow!  We'll go with Miguel Gonzalez at home.(Win 10-6 GWGS Matt Wieters........Pearce 2-4, HR.......W Troy Patton)

COLORADO ROCKIES(Nicasio) -131 over New York Mets(Gee)(PPD)
COLORADO ROCKIES(Nicasio) -1.5(+150) over New York Mets(Gee)------Rockies with Cuddyer and........wo!  Michael Mckenry 2HR yesterday......Michael Bourne 3-4, HR and Mike Trout 2-3 w/HR.  (PPD)

CHICAGO CUBS(Villanueva) +100 over Texas Rangers(Grimm)----At 4-9,  Cubs are at home with Carlos Villanueva,  who has had 2 good starts vs good offensive teams Atl and SF.  And with Carlos Gomez going 3-4 w/HR yesterday as Carlos Gonzalez went 3-4 for Col......Cubs should have a good chance to win.(PPD)

MIAMI MARLINS(Nolasco) +135 over Washington Nationals(Detwiler)----Detwiler has had 2 good starts but......Nolasco's been good too.   And with the White House under assault from "poison mail",  Marlins might good at home in the swamp today.(Lose 6-1)

BALTIMORE ORIOLES(Tillman) +110 over Tampa Bay(Moore)----Moore has allowed 8 walks in 11 innings but only 3 hits......but Tampa's bullpen is suspect.(Lose 6-2)  

MINNESOTA TWINS(Pelfrey) +120 over La Angels(Vargas)-----Twins are hitting .230,  Angels hitting .268.   But at 4-9,  the Angels are running scared.   Pelfrey at home.(Win 8-6.......Joe Mauer 4-5....Wilkin Ramirez 2-2)

SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS(Zito) -103 over Milwaukee Brewers(Peralta)-----Peralta's the favorite???   Giants,  hitting .272,  look ok.  The Brewers,  I believe,  are heading for a dismal,  near 120-loss season;  Gallardo has just gone out to drunk driving and.......have I ever been positively impacted by alcoholics?(Lose 10-8.........both starters were rocked but Zito was totally destroyed....grand slam by Betancourt.)

SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS(Lincecum) -113 over Chicago Cubs(Jackson)-----Tim Hudson did win yesterday....and he went 2-3 hitting!   Lincecum is coming off a rocking against Colorado and he is walking 1 every inning.   However,  Cubs not doing much hitting(Giants have been, maybe,  slightly better offensively).   With Edwin Encarnacion hitting under .100 and Edinson Volquez getting rocked,  that name isn't too strong in baseball this year.(Win 10-7.........Hunter Pence 3-4, HR......Nick Noonan PH 2RBI...........Jackson and Michael Bowden tie the record with 5 Wild Pitches in an inning---thanks.)

MILWAUKEE BREWERS(Gallardo) +155 over St Louis Cardinals(Wainwright)------Milwaukee is 2-7 and Gallardo has been rocked.  However,  he's a Mexican.   With Mexican Ramiro Pena getting the GWHR for the Braves yesterday.......maybe they can beat the Cardinals with him today.(Lose 8-0.......The Brewers are gonna be one of the worst teams in baseball this year.   Adam Wainwright 3-3 hitting AND a CGSHO)

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS(Kennedy) -124 over La Dodgers(Ryu)----With the Dodgers refusing to win for BCLI yesterday,  I'll take Az at home today.(Lose 7-5.........the Korean goes 3-3 hitting.....Kennedy allows 10 H and 6 ER.......so BLOW UP the Kennedy library----oh, wait.  Did that just happen in Boston?)

ATLANTA BRAVES(Hudson) +145 over Washington Nationals(Strasburg)-----Nationals are 7-3 and Atlanta is 9-1........good pitchers...........I'll take the underdog.(Win 3-1...........Hudson goes 2-3,  pitchers really hitting today..........HR Evan Gattis)

HOUSTON ASTROS(Harrell) +165 over La Angels(Richards)------While the Angels seem to have a winning-problem,  Houston is undefeated since the Cy-Fair Slasher cut it up on Tuesday.(Lose 5-4.......Rhiner Cruz and Jose Veras blow this game late.)

KANSAS CITY ROYALS(Mendoza) -110 over Toronto Blue Jays(Happ)----Try to ride this Royals winning streak at home.(Lose 8-4........Mendoza destroyed......but what are you doing?   Guy's team is already in non-compliance by winning when I am betting against them.   Reyes hits a 2-run single against my team then has the audacity to STEAL a base......then he wants to look at the catcher to see if he has to slide........guy thinks he might not have to slide........then he FORGETS how to slide.   Dude,  get your fucking corpse off my field if its like that.)

PIRATES(Burnett) -108 over Reds(Leake)-----Pirates at home but they are a team that is truly NOT hitting...........yet.  Will they ever hit?  I don't know but......AJ Griffin pitched an 8-inn 5 hitter yesterday while Austin Jackson was 3-6 and AJ Pierzynski was 2-3 with HR.  After that,  AJ Burnett should have a fair change to win.(Win 6-5.............Tony Watson blows the save to take the Win)

LA DODGERS(Kershaw) over Arizona(Corbin) parlayed with GIANTS(Cain) over Cubs(Villanueva) +161-------Dodgers have AJ Ellis and Cubs have........a new goat-head just received Special Delivery.(Lose 3-0 and 4-3.....GWHR by Starlin Castro.)

CLEVELAND INDIANS(McAllister) +102 over New York Yankees(Hughes)-----Indians have been rocked their last 2 games but.................that Phil Spector movie is running.(PPD)

CHICAGO WHITE SOX(Axelrod) +140 over Washington Nationals(Haren)(Lose 7-4.......guess Axelrod sucks)

WICHITA STATE SHOCKERS +10 over Louisville Cardinals(Win 72-68)
WICHITA STATE SHOCKERS +475 over Louisville Cardinals-----At the Final Four stage,  in a tournament of good teams,  every team still alive has, necessarily,  beaten some good teams.  So......making big favorites out of any team doesn't make too much sense to me.  Let's look at Zack c-OZ-art's 2 HR last night.   Yes,  a movie with that name has been playing during this tournament......and its association with Kansas.........didn't help Kansas St,  didn't do too much for Kansas........been good,  you could say,  to Wichita.(Lose 72-68...........12 pt lead with 13min left blown..........bad decision,  to let this happen.  Hancock, essentially,  wins this tournament for Louisville)

CINCINNATI REDS(Bailey) -122 over Washington Nationals(Haren)------Omar Infante 2-4 in Tigers' 8-3 win today and Josh Collmenter pitched a good 5inn to get the win for Arizona in that long, X-tra inning game 2 days ago;  you know where that guy is from.(Win 15-0.........Todd Frazier 2HR...Zack Cozart 2 HR...........Xavier Paul PH Grand Slam)

CHICAGO WHITE SOX(Quintana) -141 over Seattle(Beavan)(Lose 8-7)
CHICAGO WHITE SOX(Quintana) -1.5(+140) over Seattle(Beavan)(Lose 8-7........Nate Jones blows the game)

ARIZONA(Miley) +124 over Brewers(Lohse)(Win 3-1...........Michael Gonzalez with the 2R WP for Milwaukee,  Robstown, TX)

SEATTLE(Maurer) +147 over Oakland(Griffin)-----Brandon Phillips homered yesterday so......we'll try Maurer.(Lose 8-2..........Nah,  Maurer sucks the wadd)

ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS(McCarthy) -112 over St Louis Cardinals(Lynn)----Adam Jones went 3-5 yesterday......figure that could help AZ's apparently new player,  AJ Pollock.(Win 10-9.........#4 Cliff Pennington GWRBI, 3-6.........Collmenter gets the Win in this 16inning game)

TAMPA BAY(Price) over Baltimore(Hammel) parlayed with GIANTS(Bumgarner) over Dodgers(Ryu) +207(Lose 7-4......Another home opener blown as Tampa loses more money for BCLI----what a disgrace!   They had a 1-run lead into the 7th inning........but Jake McGee got rid of that in 2/3 of an inning, allowing 5 ER and 4 H.   But David Price wasn't really that good either;  he's overrated.......and we're definitely gonna look to bet against this pathetic Rays' team which---never having been known for having a decent bullpen-----certainly doesn't have one this year.)

OAKLAND A'S(Anderson) -105 over Seattle Mariners(Hernandez)-----Ryan Anderson 5 for 7 on 3s yesterday for New Orleans.  A's at home here.(Lose 2-0......waste of a home opener;  waste of a fine Brett Anderson start)

MINNESOTA TWINS(Worley) +170 over Detroit Tigers(Verlander)(Lose 4-2........they still have Mauer, Morneau, Willingham.........thought they might hit above this abject level of disgrace.)
