Cliff Lee\u2019s singing with the Philadelphia Phillies has made his new\/old team prohibitive 7\/2 \u00a0baseball betting<\/a> favorites to win the World Series.<\/p>\n

The New York Yankees, left at the alter by Cliff Lee, are 6\/1, a notch below their divisional rivals, the Boston Red Sox at 5\/1.<\/p>\n

Lee\u2019s other brokenhearted would-be brides the Texas Rangers are tied for the No. 4 favorites at 20\/1 with the Atlanta Braves and Tampa Rays.\u00a0 Sportsbook<\/a> odds from Bodog.<\/p>\n

Speaking of odds, tonight\u2019s top NBA picks<\/a> include a big winner from Matt Rivers for Tuesday is on the Charlotte Bobcats -5 Toronto.<\/p>\n

Reasoning: Wow was that an unbelievably pathetic last game at home against Boston. The Bobbies were held to an insanely low 62 points in that 31-point defeat. I am not in the slightest going to try and defend that because you just can\u2019t. But I can tell you that Michael Jordan was on the bench and\u00a0the owner is\u00a0not going to stand for that garbage. He will have his players focused today against what is a bad and inferior Toronto squad that should not win many games this entire season anywhere, no less on the road.<\/p>\n

Charlotte boasts some talent, they really do. Gerald Wallace, Stephen Jackson and DJ Augustin form a quality trio and the\u00a08-15 record that Charlotte currently has is not truly indicative of what the team is. These guys have a solid upside and a lot of potential\u00a0but have\u00a0just gotten off to a poor start. The last game very well may have been rock bottom and after that debacle there is only one way to go.<\/p>\n

The Raptors are 9-15 and probably are a 9-15 type of a team. I really do\u00a0like Andrea Bargnani as that guy is starting to become a total star but the cupboard is fairly bare after losing Chris Bosh to the Heat. Toronto is\u00a0a porous 3-9\u00a0outside of\u00a0Canada and should be getting more tonight against a team that is much better than them.<\/p>\n

I expect Charlotte to come out with some passion and energy after that last beat down against the\u00a0Celtics and against a bad team on their home floor should result in an easy victory. This is a cheap bargain basement type of a number\u00a0and one that can\u2019t fully be passed up.<\/p>\n

The pick: Charlotte.<\/p>\n
