NFL
The detailed previews for these teams will be out soon, roughly around the 15th, I am doing the NFC Previews although I would have capped all the teams in detail, but for preseason research purposes, I will simply discuss the game at hand.
Buffalo vs. Washington
Note the Ravens came to play at New Englad as the Ravens head coach Brian B is on the hot seat this year considering last year's performance, but he does have a Super Bowl ring so he gets the benefit of the doubt there, many home teams have been beat outright this year, this Buffalo line has come down steadily despite the public backing Washington, this is something to look at and of course, Buffalo looks to make a statement this year and you get them at over a field goal dog here and the total has risen here. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Bills win this game outright.
Atlanta vs. Jacksonville
Under new head coach Smith against his old team, Atlanta looks to do well on the road and why not, the line started off at -5.5 and this too has come down as a new dawn has come through in Atlanta and htey hit the road as Smith faces off against Jacksonville who he is familiar with, this very well might be the biggest surprise of the day, but Atlanta could very well win this game outright.
Indy vs. Carolina
I think Indy might very well lose every single preseason game given that Dungy could care less, Manning is not a 100%, and all Indy tries to do is work out the kinks, I still have my doubts about the Panthers but if Delhomme can stay healthy they can do well, but keep in mind they have their problems with the receiving core, the last Indy game went over but I would not be surprised to see this game dip under here, regardless, lean on Carolina but likely staying away.
Tampa Bay vs. Miami
Note that despite over 60% are on TB, Miami is getting a lot of love here, Bill Parcells looks to help his new team get on the right foot and of course the new coach wants to impress, I wouldn't be surprised to see the Dolphins win by a field goal or better here as Gruden will sport many quarterbacks and it looks Miami might be in a bit more sync here, lean on the Dolphins at home.
St. Louis vs. Tennessee
This is a game that the Rams could win outright as remember they had a dismal season last fall, their back up did very well and had the offense rolling as it was their defense that fell short last year, this team can put up points in a hurry regardless of who is on the field, I question Tennessee's offensive prowess here, as I don't know if they did enough in the off-season here, this is game that the Rams can win outright imo and I think the ML might be an option here .
Denver vs. Houston
I tell you what, normally the home teams have been getting burned thus far in preseason but given that the public is even on this game, the ex-coach for Denver is heading the Texans, the dislike these 2 teams have with each other and the Texans have 2 quarterbacks who can straight up ball, I like the Texans to get it done here as i still question Denver's offensive and defensive prowess, lean on the Texans here.
Dallas vs. San Diego
I wouldn't touch this game with a ten foot pole as Jerry Jones loves to win regardless of preseason or regular season, Romo wants to get that bad taste out of the mouth, San Diego is a tough place to play, this team wants to desperately win at home regardless if it doesn't count or who they play, just simply staying away.
MLB
Now that the NFL has started, please note the baseball selections will be researched fully as usual, but will more to the point given there is more research.
Cleveland vs. Toronto
Byrd faces off against Halladay today and keep in mind Byrd is coming off 3 great starts, he had a 1.69 on the road at the Angels, a shutout against Detroit at home, 1.29 era against Minny on the road, and has given up 2 runs in 20 inns, he has not faced Toronto this year, Halladay typically struggles against the same teams and dominates the rest, the Indians gave him a 6 era at Cleveland last time, to be honest, the Indians +1.5 or the under are not bad plays here imo. Heck, even the Indians ML despite Halladay having revenge against this team is not a bad idea.
Yankees vs. Angels
Giese went 3 inns and gave up 1 hit against the Angels last season, he has not faced the Angels this season, he is 0-2 with a 5+ era this season, Lackey is on a bounce-back after a 6 era on the road against the Yankees in his last start, I undesrtand Lackey is on a bounce-back here but he has been struggling of late and the Angels have yet to face Giese, probably just staying away.
Oakland vs. Detroit
Dan Meyer the lefty goes for Oakland today on the road, sure he's a newbie and the Tigers haven't faced him which is an advantage for him, but Oakland knows young pitchers, they always have, they are the best at it in fact, with the likes of Haren, Hudson, Mulder, Street etc...coming up and now this kid. Galaraga had a 9 era to Oakland earlier this season, to be honest Oakland has decent value here as they have defeated Galaraga before. In essence, both the Indians and Oakland have value here given the big dog value that they present.
Texas vs. Baltimore
Padilla is 9-2 on the road, Texas comes off a tough loss yesterday, Padilla is on a bounce-back of sorts today, he had a 24 ERA against Baltimore his last time out, but the Orioles send Cabrera who is also on a bounce-back today, he has yet to face Texas this year, if anything a lean on the over, but this game should back and forth the whole day.
Boston vs. Whitesox
Dice-K bounced back well and won at home against Oakland in his last start, Contreras got drilled in his last start with a 15+ era on the road at Texas, his team lost 11-12 in that ballgame, he has given up 20 hits and 12 runs in his last 2 starts, but he has helped his team win at home of late with 4.5 eras, don't be surprised to see a Whitesox win here at home. Contreras is likely to show up this game.
Minny vs. KC
Liriano in his first game back lost to the Royals, looks like he is back on track as he comes off a shoutout performance in his last start against Cleveland at home, Greinke has won back to back ballgames and is awfully tough at home as he is 4-1 with a 2.93 era at home, he lost to the Twins last time, so a bit of revenge here for him as well, lean on the under but 8 is a tough number here to take.
Tampa Bay vs. Seattle
Garza on the road on a bounce-back is good value here, he had a 7+ era in his last start and he has consistently come back with a bounce-back after a bad performance, of course, he has to considering his team is in the hunt and leads the division, besides, the Yanks and Red Sox both lost yesterday, he lost to Seattle earlier this year, he faces Rowland-Smith, but I hate the juice here on TB, a lean on the RL slightly, but Rowland-Smith likely shows up here, nevertheless, it is still worth it to take the RL here imo given the dog price.
WNBA
Season will resume again on August 26th, wnba clients note that your packages simply resume when the season begins back on that date and that your package runs through until the wnba season is over, whenever that maybe, looks like they are taking some time off due to the Olympics.
Saturday's Comp Selection
Rams +3
This is a game that the Rams could win outright as remember they had a dismal season last fall, their back up did very well and had the offense rolling as it was their defense that fell short last year, this team can put up points in a hurry regardless of who is on the field, I question Tennessee's offensive prowess here, as I don't know if they did enough in the off-season here, this is game that the Rams can win outright imo and I think the ML might be an option here. The bottom line here is I question Tennesees's young offense and defense and although the Rams have their problems on defense, they were hurt last year and their offense is still quite good, so I will take the Rams here to get it done and win outright on the road.
