New York Yankees Wagering

The New York Yankees are perennial favorites to capture the American League pennant and after winning the World Series last season, it’s no surprise that they are once again favored to capture the pennant again in 2010.

 
However, the Yanks will have a big distraction this season. As it stands, star shortstop Derek Jeter is going into the final year of his deal with the Pinstripes and you can bet it will continue to be a distraction until the situation is resolved.
 
“I was a Yankees fan growing up. This is where I want to be,” Jeter told the media as he was prepping for Spring Training in Tampa, Florida. “I’ve never envisioned myself playing anywhere else, and hopefully I don’t have to.”
 
It’s doubtful that the Yanks would allow Jeter to leave but then again, former Boston Red Sox player Johnny Damon said he would never sign with the Yankees and he did.
 
The Bronx Bombers are currently listed as the +150 wagering odds favorite to represent the AL in this season’s World Series. At this point, players at SPORTSBETTING.com have 26% of their action on the Yankees to win the American League.
 
Speaking of the Red Sox, the Yankees’ division and eternal rivals are also one of the annual favorites to capture the pennant.
 
Boston made a number of additions to its roster this offseason and amongst the new Red Sox, former Angels pitcher John Lackey, veteran outfielder Mike Cameron and former Seattle Mariners 3B Adrian Beltre. The BoSox are listed at +300 sports wagering odds to take the American League this season. The BoSox have 21% of the action to win the AL.
 
 
The 2009 Minnesota Twins won the AL Central division last minute last season, squeaking into the playoffs in the process.
 
While 2006 AL MVP Justin Morneau missed a bulk of the season with a stress fracture in his back, catcher Joe Mauer stepped up and took the league MVP honor last season. It should be noted that Mauer, like Jeter, is seeking a new deal.
 
Designated hitter Jim Thome and second baseman Orlando Hudson are amongst the new faces in the Twins’ lineup and Minnesota is listed at +1200 MLB wagering odds to take the American League pennant.
 
 
The Seattle Mariners have made a number of moves this offseason and amongst the new talent donning Seattle jerseys, pitcher Cliff Lee, who was a driving force behind the Philadelphia Phillies run to the World Series last playoffs.
 
However, Lee had surgery on his left foot close to a month ago and there were some doubts to what his status for the start of the season would be. Happily for people who plan to wager on the Mariners this season, the AP reports that Lee went through a full bullpen session recently and experienced no foot troubles. “I feel good. The foot’s fine. The body feels good, so now I need to get in shape and get off the mound more and catch up with everyone else,” Lee is quoted as saying.
 
Lee will play a major factor in Seattle’s rotation this year and who the pitchers go, the Mariners will go. The M’s also list +1200 wagering odds to take the AL pennant this season.

The Twinkies needed an extra game, but they finally disposed of the Tigers, capturing the American League Central division. The reward was a quick trip to the airport to head to New York for a game the next night.

After losing the opener 7-2, Minnesota is now 5-16 in their last 21 games against the Bronx Bombers and currently on an eight-game Yankee losing streak.
 
The Twins have been equally atrocious in the Big Apple going 4-17 in their last 21 and are currently mired in a nine-game road slide vs. the Evil Empire.

Boston is also 9-1 SU in 10 meetings with the Angels in the month of October.
 
The defending World Series champion Philadelphia Phillies will truly begin defense of their title (regular season doesn’t count) in a National League Divisional Series against the Colorado Rockies.
 
The Phillies are favored at -160 and the Rockies are +145 in Series Price betting. In the last 12 overall games between the two, the Over has cashed 8 times while the Under has 4 times. Philly took Game 1 by a score of 5-1, covering at -125.
 
The final playoff series in the National League will see the -145 St. Louis Cardinals playing the +115 Los Angeles Dodgers.
 
Game 2 of their series begins on Thursday and Clayton Kershaw gets the start for the Dodgers.
 
Kershaw has struggled lately, as the Dodgers are 2-9 SU in his last 11 starts but the Under has been a solid play, cashing in 8 times during that same stretch.
 
Adam Wainwright takes the mound for the Cards and in his last 10 road starts, St. Louis has been hot going 10-0 SU.

Good luck with MLB Sports Wagering on the MLB Playoffs!

MLB Wagering Odds Giants vs Phillies

Filed Under (Odds Alerts) by Stan on 08-09-2009

Tagged Under : , , , , , ,

cole hamelsThe San Francisco Giants (72-59) have no time for a letdown as they face the Philadelphia Phillies (75-53) on Tuesday at 7:05 PM EST. The Giants swept the Colorado Rockies over the weekend to tie for the Wild Card lead but they can’t take a breath as they open up a 6-game road trip in Philadelphia on Tuesday. SBG Global reports that the early MLB wagering odds action sees the public taking the Phillies at home as a -185 favorite with a total 8.5 flat.

The Giants are facing Philadelphia at the right place since the Phillies are actually better on the road than at home. They go up against Cole Hamels on Tuesday and that might not be bad news either. Hamels has not pitched like he did a year ago. He is 7-8 with a 4.52 ERA this season. He did pitch well last time out against Pittsburgh though but did not get the win. "(Hamels’) velocity was good and he stayed after it the whole eight innings," said manager Charlie Manuel, "When they had runners on base, that’s when he really bore down. He’s getting there." Hamels will be glad to see September since he was 0-3 with a 4.91 ERA in five August starts. He was shelled in San Francisco early last month, allowing seven runs and 10 hits over five innings.
 
The Giants come into Tuesday’s game off a sweep of Colorado. The Giants have been great at home this season but have struggled on the road. They are just 28-38 on the road this season. Jonathan Sanchez gets the start on Tuesday. He is 6-10 with a 4.27 ERA this season. He has gone 2-0 with a 0.95 ERA in his last three road starts. He is 1-0 with a 4.60 ERA in six appearances against the Phillies.
 
Take a look at the MLB wagering stats for Tuesday’s game. The Giants are 5-1 in their last 6 overall. The Giants are 8-18 in their last 26 road games vs. a left-handed starter. The Giants are 1-4 in their last 5 road games. The Giants are 3-15 in Sanchez’s last 18 road starts. The Giants are 3-10 in the last 13 meetings in Philadelphia. The Phillies are 5-0 in their last 5 vs. the National League West. The Phillies are 5-1 in their last 6 home games vs. a left-handed starter. The Phillies are 21-8 in their last 29 home games. The Phillies are 1-4 in Hamels’ last 5 starts.

The Over is 5-1-1 in Sanchez’s last 7 starts vs. the National League East. The Under is 4-1 in the Phillies last 5 overall. The Over is 4-0 in Hamels’ last 4 home starts. The Over is 4-1 in Hamels’ last 5 starts vs. the Giants.
