ESPN Monday Night Football has the Carolina Panthers at the Dallas Cowboys. Dallas is laying eight points at SportsBook and 8.5 at BetUs Sportsbook  with a total of 48-48.5.

The Braves will be looking to keep their playoff hopes alive on Monday night when they open a home series against the Marlins. Jair Jurrjens (13-10, 2.70 ERA) will get the ball for Atlanta in that contest, while Anibal Sanchez (3-7, 4.01 ERA) is slated to start for Florida. Righthander Jurrjens has picked up the win in each of his last three starts, allowing just two earned runs over 22 innings of work. Righthander Sanchez blanked the Phillies over eight innings last time out.

Over in the American League the battle for the AL Central crown gets started on Monday night, with Minnesota at Detroit. The Twins send Nick Blackburn (11-11, 4.18 ERA) to the mound to open that crucial series, while the Tigers will turn to Rick Porcello (14-9, 4.14 ERA). Righthander Blackburn pitched seven scoreless innings against the White Sox last time out, allowing eight hits in the win. Righthander Porcello beat the Indians (one run over five innings) in his last start.

Also on the AL slate for Monday: the White Sox at Cleveland, Kansas City at the Yankees, Baltimore at Tampa Bay, Toronto at Boston, and Texas at the Angels. Meanwhile, there are just three other games on tap in the National League on Monday, with the Mets at Washington, the Dodgers at Pittsburgh, and Houston at Philadelphia. Cole Hamels (10-9, 4.11 ERA) will get the ball on Monday for East-leading Philly; lefthander Hamels is 2-0 with a no-decision in his last three starts.

The Texas Rangers take on the Anaheim Angels in the only west coast game on the Monday Night betting card. Tommy Hunter is on the hill for Texas, Ervin Santana for the Halos.

Grandmaster sports handicapper Joe Duffy of GodsTips, anchor of OffshoreInsiders.com says take Texas and Hunter +155 at BetUs Sportsbook. Here is why:

Texas is 4-0 off a loss. Anaheim has dropped 4-of-5. Ervin Santana is one of those rare pitchers who are much better on the road than at home.

Santana has been decent on the road with a 4.34 ERA and .256 batting average against. But now he’s pitching at home where his ERA is 7.10 with a .335 batting average against. That is scary: a .335 batting average against in 52 home innings pitched. That’s why the Halos have dropped six straight with him as a home favorite.

The road team is 11-4 in his decisions and 15-6 overall in his starts. Conversely Tommy Hunter has pitched very well with a 3.67 ERA and 1.206 WHIP in 17 starts. Texas has won 9-of-13 with him on the hill and they are 11-6 +5.5 units with him overall. His road WHIP of 1.191 is much better than Santana’s 1.827 home WHIP. As sharp bettors know, WHIP is a much better key indicator than ERA.

Texas is 15-5 in the series. They’ve beaten Santana two straight getting 13 earned runs off of him in just 9 2/3 inning pitched. In fact, they have 17 hits in those 9 2/3 innings.

The Rangers are +15.5 units the last two years as underdogs of 125-175. Texas has won 7-of-8 Hunter starts on grass and they are 6-1 with Hunter after allowing five or more runs in their last game.

The pick: Texas Rangers +155.

Here are some more key betting notes on today’s MLB betting card:

·        Boston is 25-7 +19.2 units this year against teams that commit less than .5 errors per game.

·        Detroit’s Nick Blackburn has an 0-12 team record on the road the last two years against teams with a winning record.

·        The Mets have gone under 15-2 this year against teams with a winning percentage of .380 or less

·        Tampa is 22-46 -30.7 this year off consecutive road games.

·        Florida is an astounding 6-1 +10.7 units as road underdogs of +10.7 units.

·        The Dodgers are 17-3 +14.8 units off a one-run loss this year.

Units/won lost are based on one-unit per bet. Personal record is a pitcher’s record in his decisions including relief appearances.  Team record is how the team did in his starts whether or not he was involved in the decision.

Yes the square player had nice late NFL card, but the pro bettor had more enjoyment than Britney Spears and Shannon Funk all weekend thanks to the world’s top sports handicappers.

Today OffshoreInsiders.com has a free winner from handicapper Matt Rivers, a living legend in sports betting circles. Rivers says go with Baltimore +200 at BetUs Sportsbook against Tampa. Here is his analysis:  

A winning comp play on da Bears yesterday as they got the job done late in Seattle.
 
For Monday I’ll take my chances on the big dog Orioles down at the Trop.
 
A few factors in our corner here. No it’s not that we have the better team because Tampa Bay, no matter how bad they have been playing is still superior talentwise, but to get a former Ray hurler in Mark Hendrickson plus such a price against what is still an ice cold Tampa Bay club is a bit too much to pass up.
 
Hendrickson is a tall former basketball playing lefty (literally) that is not a very good Major Leaguer but he has been alright recently. I’m sure his juices will be flowing today against his former mates and that is never a bad thing.
 
Hendrickson is up against a guy in Jeff Niemann who has had a successful season as that 12-6 record can attest to but the last few starts have been shaky and at this time of the year in a breakout season such as this you may be seeing a guy in a dead arm period. The righthander has not pitched these many innings and I think it’s taking an effect on him at this point in the season. Niemann has allowed 9 earned runs and 15 hits in his last 11 innings of work and may be up against a bad team but the O’s are a bad team with at least some potential.
 
Roberts, Markakis, Wieters and a few others are pretty good and to get them plus around that magical $2 number makes this a no-brainer. Sure Tampa Bay should win this game but it’s not like the defending champions have been any good lately or are playing for anything themselves. They did come back brilliantly in Arlington yesterday but so what!?!? That does not justify laying a big number like this with a hurler who may be flat out fatigued!
 
This is the epitome of a no-lose situation. I’m not dropping a bomb on this at all and if it loses it loses but Niemann and the Rays are a must go against in this spot.
