Pick: 4 units on San Francisco +140 (moneyline) (risk 4 to win 5.6)
Does Maddux deserve this kind of respect? No! The guy is 4-8 on the season with a pedestrian 4.29 ERA. Over his last three starts he has posted a 7.54 ERA. His team averages 3.5 runs per game at home on .236 batting. They are 24-34 at home this season - a worse record than San Francisco owns on the road. The Giants are 14-5 this season vs. teams that are outscored by 1+ run per game. They are also 12-4 vs. teams with an OBP of .315 or worse (San Diego's is .309). Correia has not been sharp of late but agains this Padres offense, any pitcher can look like a hero. We will fade the Pads at what we feel is way too high a price.

Oakland was right in the midst of looking like a wildcard contender a couple weeks ago as they had run out to a 51-42 mark. Those nine games over .500 have since evaporated into a 2-11 slide. This sli...

The Braves have been shelled for 34 runs in their last three games. The bullpen is decimated thanks to having to come in early and often (no started made it past the fourth inning in those three games...
