June 12, 2006 (New York, NY) – the New York Yankees were at it again this weekend at the venerable ball park and if you had your cash on them against the Oakland As, the overpaid ballplayers sure burned you dough!
The Angels Are Flying High In The West!
The Los Angeles Angels have fired off the loudest shot in week one of the second half of the major league season and that is bad news for the Oakland As and the Texas Rangers. The halos have now won 11 of their past 12 games and have taken their record above .500 (46-45) for the first time since April 28th.
The Mets will have it wrapped up by the All Star break!
A quick scan around Major League Baseball will reveal some really tight races in 5 out of the 6 divisions, but make no mistake about it, the Atlanta Braves reign at the top of the NL East is over. The New York Mets have been money in the bank for bettors all year and especially in their most recent road trip.
Toronto Taking Ownership of Red Soxs Beckett!
The Toronto Blue Jays are making noise in the American League East and are doing so with a patchwork starting pitching staff and a less then stellar middle infield. Last night they took apart prize free agent Josh Beckett who has had his way with the rest of the American League, but is struggling mightily with Toronto.
Twins Mauer & Morneau lead the surging team!
Very few teams win 21 of 23 games and still find themselves on the ground floor but that is the case with the Minnesota Twins and the AL Central division. They have won 11 straight but the Tigers and White Sox refuse to let them into the party as we head to the All Star break.
Online Baseball Betting: the numbers dont lie!

Dirk Goes Wild And Suns Fail To Cover!
I was going to come on here yesterday and give you my usual dose about how the smart guys were begging the public to take the Suns and the +7 points as they knew the sharp money would be all over the Mavericks.
Baseball betting numbers that matter!
The good news for the LA Angels is that they are only four game back in the loss column in the wacky AL West. The bad news is that 2005 CY Young award winner Bartolo Colon is returning and has looked brutal in 2006.
Baseball Betting: bet on Phillies & Dodgers to continue streak!
The good thing about wagering on sports this time of year is that with a plethora of activity, you may fine a soft line here or there if you probe hard enough.
Baseball betting: Diamondbacks latest Arizona team to impress!
Last week I praised Bobby Cox and his Atlanta Braves on their 6-3 road trip and suggested they were beginning to play like manager Coxs previous NL East teams. Then the Dodgers and Arizona came to Turner Field and suddenly the Braves are 1-6 on this current homestand.
Baseball betting: did you bet the Reds on their road trip?
There has to be at least one gambling fan of the Cincinnati Reds in America who woke up May 31st after the Reds had lost their first two games of the road trip to the Cubbies and decided the Reds would win that day!
Baseball Betting: numbers dont lie!
When betting major league baseball it is very wise to pay attention to the numbers, as teams and players seem to own certain pitchers or clubs, but also struggled mightily against others.
