We will be back next season with a slightly different format where we will be giving out the ratings for every game. Highlight the team with the best value.

In retrospect we should have finished the season earlier and are disappointed with how the season has ended. However at least we have finished in profit and we know that we have a system that will return a profit and  we are confident we can improve on this next season.

Thanks for coming to the site and we shall see you next April .

HOU @ WAS Ratings have WAS 1.60 Bookmakers 2.10 (+14.59%)

Houston has dropped 11 of its last 15 games in Washington and they have been outscored 19-9 in a three-game losing streak in Washington.
Houston is the worst road team in MLB with just 26 victories in 71 road games. They are also the worst team overall in MLB with 48-95 record.

BOS @ TOR Ratings have TOR 2.23 Bookmakers 1.74 (-12.79%)

PHI @ MIL Ratings have MIl 1.80 Bookmakers 2.31 (+12.18)

CLE @ CWS Ratings have CWS 2.00 Bookmakers 1.67 (-9.88%)

NYY @ BAL Ratings have BAL 2.35 Bookmakers 2.75 (+6.08%)

Mr Stretch’s pick for today is Boston.

BOS @ TOR Ratings have TOR 2.23 Ratings 1.74 (-12.79%)

This will be the final game of 4 game series played in Toronto. Toronto won 1-0 on Monday, Boston won 14-0 on Tuesday and Toronto won 11-10 last night. Boston leads the season series 9-6.

Jacoby Ellsbury, Adrian Gonzalez and David Ortiz each homered yesterday, but Daniel Bard could not hold a two-run lead as Toronto scored five times in the eighth inning. That was only the third time Boston didn’t win in 76 games they were leading after seven innings of play.

Boston outscored Toronto 68-34 at Rogers Centre this year.

Ricky Romero is starting for Toronto. He is 13-10, 2.97 ERA in 28 starts this season. Romero has allowed 11 runs, 17 hits and eight walks in 8.2 innings while losing his two starts against Boston this year. He is is 0-3, 10.62 ERA in 5 career home starts vs Boston and Toronto lost all of them.

David Ortiz, 10 for 26 with five doubles and one homer versus Romero, has hit .481 with eight homers and 20 RBI’s in his last 21 games overall. Jacoby Ellsbury, 7 for 17 with two doubles and a homer against Romero, had four hits with three RBI’s yesterday and is batting .360 during a 12-game hitting streak.

Boston’s starter will be Andrew Miller, who is 6-2, 5.27 ERA in 11 starts and 2 relief appearances this year. He had a bad day in his last appearance 6 days ago against Texas. He has allowed six runs and walked four in just 1.1 innings. Miller had yielded one run and six hits over 11.2 innings while winning his previous two starts. Boston is 4-0 in Miller’s last 4 road starts, 7-0 in Miller’s last 7 starts vs. a team with a losing record, 4-0 in Miller’s last 4 road starts vs. a team with a losing record and 5-1 in Miller’s last 6 starts.

Since Miller is a left-handed pitcher it’s important to notice that Toronto hasn’t performed well against lefties lately. Toronto is 1-6 in their last 7 games vs. a left-handed starter and 0-4 in their last 4 home games vs. a left-handed starter.

Boston is 37-17 in their last 54 road games and 14-6 in the last 20 meetings in Toronto.

Mr Stretch’s pick for today is Boston.

This will be the third game of 4 game series played in Toronto. Toronto won 1-0 on Monday and Boston won 14-0 last night. Boston leads the season series 9-5.
After last nights defeat Toronto was shut out the third time in their last 18 games. Boston, on the other hand, tied a season high with 20 hits in yesterday’s victory. Josh Reddick and Jarrod Saltalamacchia homered, Marco Scutaro had four RBI’s and David Ortiz 2, while batting 4-for-6.
Tim Wakefield will be starting for Boston tonight. He is 6-6, 4.95 ERA in 19 starts and 10 relief appearances this season. His last appearance was on September 2. In 4 innings of relief he allowed no runs while striking out 3. He pitched well in his only start against Toronto this year, allowing three runs in seven innings of a 6-4 victory July 6.
Toronto’s starter will be Brandon Morrow who is 9-10, 4.78 ERA in 25 starts in 2011. He’s 1-5, 5.40 ERA in his last six outings after allowing three runs in six innings of a 3-2 loss to the New York Yankees on Friday. In his start against Boston on June 11 he allowed nine runs in 4.1 innings of a 16-4 loss. He allowed four runs in five innings in a 9-7 win over Boston on July 4. He is 1-2, 11.14 ERA in five career starts versus Boston and Toronto has lost four out of those five games.
Toronto is 1-4 in Morrow’s last 5 starts as a favorite, 1-4 in Morrow’s last 5 home starts., 1-5 in Morrow’s last 6 starts and 0-4 in Morrow’s last 4 starts vs. American League East teams.
Boston is 15-6 in their last 21 games as a road underdog and they are the best road team in MLB with 43-27 record.
Boston is 6-2 in the last 8 head to head meetings and I expect them to win tonight.

CIN @ CHC Ratings have CHC 2.01 Bookmakers 1.75 (-7.50%)
This will be the first game of 4 game series played in Chicago. Cincinnati leads the season series 7-4. Cincinnati is 17-6 in the last 23 head to head meetings and 7-3 in the last 10 meetings in Chicago.
Chicago Cubs are in bad form. They are 2-6 in their last 8 home games and 4-10 in their last 14 overall  They are also 1-4 in their last 5 vs. a team with a losing record and 1-6 in their last 7 vs. National League Central teams.
Dontrelle Willis will be starting for Cincinnati. He is 0-4, 4.10 ERA in 10 starts this season. His record looks bad, but actually he has been pitching very good. Eight of of those 10 starts were quality starts and he has only once allowed more than 3 runs. The problem is that he has got only 2.7 runs of support per game from his team mates. He opened the season in minors where hi was 5-2 in 13 starts before rejoining Cincinnati start of July.
Chicago Cub’s starter will be Matt Garza, who is 7-10, 3.64 ERA in 26 starts in 2011. Garza has won only four of his 14 home starts at Wrigley Field. He has picked up a win in only three of his 11 quality starts for the Cubs. Chicago Cubs are 2-5 in Garza’s last 7 starts as a home favorite, 2-5 in Garza’s last 7 home starts, 2-5 in Garza’s last 7 starts with 5 days of rest and 1-7 in Garza’s last 8 starts during game 1 of a series.
Cincinnati is 4-0 in their last 4 vs. a team with a losing record, 5-1 in their last 6 road games vs. a right-handed starter and 4-1 in their last 5 during game 1 of a series.

TEX @TAM Ratings have TAM 1.97 Bookmakers 1.75 (-6.42%)
This will be the first game of 3 game series played in Tampa. Texas leads the season series 4-2. Texas is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings overall and 5-1 in the last 6 meetings in Tampa.
Last week Texas took 2 out of 3 against Tampa and last weekend they took 2 out of 3 in Boston. In those 3 games Texas homered six times and had 12 extra-base hits. Ian Kinsler and Josh Hamilton each scored seven runs in the series, with Kinsler driving in six runs and David Murphy going 7 for 14. Texas is leading American League West and they are in great form.
Main reason why Tampa Bay is considered favorite today is their starting pitcher James Shields who is 13-10, 2.84 ERA in 28 starts this season. Shields leads the majors with 10 complete games. He dominated Texas last week on the road and he is 2-0, 3.00 ERA in three career regular-season home starts against Texas.
Starting for Texas will be Scott Feldman. He is 1-0, 2.86 ERA in 1 start and 7 relief appearances this year. He recorded a win in his only start of the season 6 days ago against Tampa Bay. In 6 innings of work he has allowed no runs, while striking out 4. Feldman is 3-0, 1.04 ERA in four career starts against Tampa Bay. His overall 1.41 ERA against them is his lowest against any American League opponent. Tampa Bay’s RBI leaders Evan Longoria, Ben Zobrist and B.J. Upton have combined to go just 3 for 28 (.107) against Feldman.
Texas is 9-2 in their last 11 road games vs. a right-handed starter, 9-2 in their last 11 road games vs. a team with a winning home record, 22-5 in their last 27 during game 1 of a series and I expect them to win today.

Mr Stretch’s pick for today is Cleveland.

CLE @ KC Ratings have KC 1.95 Bookmakers 1.76 (-5.70%)
This will be the final game of 3 game series played in Kansas City. Cleveland won 5-4 on Friday night and Kansas City won yesterday 5-1. Cleveland leads the season series 11-5 and they are 14-6 in the last 20 meetings.
Jeanmar Gomez will be starting for Cleveland. He is 1-2, 4.55 ERA in 5 starts and one relief appearance this season. He returned to the starting rotation 5 days ago replacing Josh Tomlin who is on the 15-day disabled list. In that start Gomez recorded a win against Oakland allowing no earned runs in 6 innings of work while striking out 4. Cleveland is 4-1 in Gomez’s last 5 starts as an underdog and 4-1 in Gomez’s last 5 starts during game 3 of a series.
Jeff Francis, who is 5-14, 4.64 ERA in 28 starts in 2011, will be starting for Kansas City. He is winless at home since beating Los Angeles Angels on May 31. He is 0-4, 5.40 ERA in last six home starts. Kansas City is 1-10 in Francis last 11 starts vs. American League Central teams.
Cleveland’s shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera will be back in the lineup after missing one game with a knee contusion. Cabrera is hitting .278 and leads the team with 22 home runs and 80 RBI’s.
Cleveland is 4-1 in their last 5 road games vs. a left-handed starter and 4-1 in their last 5 games following a loss and I expect them to win today.

Mr Stretch’s pick for today is Arizona

ARI @ SF Ratings have SF 1.91 Bookmakers 1.63 (-9.17%)

This will be the first game of 3 game series played in San Francisco. San Francisco is leading the season series 8-4, but in a 3 game series played a month ago in San Francisco Arizona took the first 2 games by beating All-Star aces Matt Cain and Tim Lincecum.

Arizona is leading National League West with 78-59 record, 6 games ahead of San Francisco. With just 25 games remaining in the regular season Arizona could virtually secure their spot in the playoffs with positive result in this series.

Troubled by injuries San Francisco lost 21 of their past 31 games, mostly because of their poor offense. They are hitting only .235, while averaging 2.7 runs per game in August. They’ve finished August with a .180 average with runners in scoring position. Also, they are only 11-14 at home since the All-Star break.

Arizona is on 9 games wining streak and their starter tonight will be Joe Saunders. He is 9-11, 3.82 ERA in 27 games this season. Saunders was impressive in his last start 6 days ago against San Diego where he has allowed one unearned run in seven innings of work. Arizona is 4-0 in Saunders last 4 starts as a road underdog and 4-1 in Saunders last 5 starts as an underdog.

Matt Cain will be San Francisco’s starter. Cain is 10-9, 2.87 ERA in 28 starts this season. San Francisco is 2-8 in Cain’s last 10 starts, 0-4 in Cain’s last 4 starts as a home favorite, 0-4 in Cain’s last 4 starts during game 1 of a series, 0-5 in Cain’s last 5 starts as a favorite and 0-5 in Cain’s last 5 home starts.
