Bet On MLB ? National League Central Rivals Clash In The Windy City
2011-05-10 06:33:00
Kentucky Derby betting players don?t get much in the way of rivals, but there is always a rivalry of some sort going on in baseball, and two of the most bitter rivals over the years have been St. Louis and Chicago in the National League Central. The Cubs have the bigger market, but the Cardinals have more success and after a slow start, they seem to be coming around. The two kick off a three-game set a Wrigley Field on Tuesday night.Cardinals Cubs Betting ? Tuesday, 8:05 PM ETChris Carpenter (0-2, 4.19) is still searching for his first win of the 2011 campaign after an 8-7 loss at home against Florida, as he allowed six runs (four earned) on 10 hits over six innings, striking out four and walking three. The Cardinals have now lost six of Carpenter?s seven starts, and if you bet on MLB odds, you know St. Louis isn?t going to last long if this continues, especially with Adam Wainwright on the disabled list for the next year. Carpenter is 10-6 in 22 starts against the Cubs, posting a 3...
National League wins; George Steinbrenner's casket loses home advantag
2010-07-14 06:53:00
ANAHEIM- This wasn't the way George wanted to go out. The National League all-stars defeated the American League all-stars 3-1 for their first mid-summer classic victory in 13 years. The victory means that the casket of George Steinbrenner will not be commemorated outside of the new Yankee Stadium, but inside the National League's victorious Citi Field in Flushing, New York.
Face it National League, We're Just Better Than You!
2010-06-25 05:01:00
I am not going to make this a long blog full of boring stats; I am just going to give you a few facts to look at and think about.First and foremost let's look at the White Sox, they are 13-2 in inter-league play and they still have to finish the Cross Town Cup.Now let's look at All Star Game history.  The National League has not won a game since 1996.  However the game did end it a tie in 2002.My main point here is that the American League is the better league NOW, in present day.  The National League dominated the American League from 1960-1982.  The American League only won it twice in 22 years, 1962 and 1971.What caused...

MLB Predictions: National League
2008-03-31 22:21:00
East 1. NY Mets2. Philadelphia Phillies3. Atlanta Braves4. Florida Marlins5. Washington NationalsThe Mets were the best team in the National League for 5 ½ months last season before the collapse. This off-season they brought in the best pitcher of this generation without losing any contributing pieces from last season?s team. If Pedro Martinez is healthy you can expect to see the Mets' rotation be a strength whereas it was a major weakness heading into last season. Their lineup is headed by three potential MVP candidates in David Wright, Jose Reyes, and Carlos Beltran and should score enough runs to finish in the Top 10 in baseball again. Ultimately I think they?re the class of the NL and a solid tier above the contending Phillies and Braves. I think the Mets win the division handily on their way to a low 90?s win season and home-field advantage throughout the NL Playoffs.Central1. Chicago Cubs2. Milwaukee Brewers3. Cincinatti Reds4. Houston Astros5. St. Louis CardinalsLast year I ...

They have an excellent blend of productive veterans, and youngsters on the rise. Even if Jeff Kent and Nomar Garciapara cannot stay healthy all year, the Dodgers have a ton of talent who could come up and take those positions from them. Andre Either and Matt Kemp have already put Juan Pierre and his 11 million dollar-a-year salary on the bench. Their pitching has the same depth as Chad Billingsly proved last year that he's ready and capable. The Dodgers also have young lefty Clayton Kershaw waiting in the wings. If Jason Schmidt can come back healthy by mid-season, it would be like adding ...

It's still tough to tell what kind of power numbers he will put up in America, but he should be around .300 providing speed and solid defense. If Derrick Lee rebounds this year and can stay healthy, the Cubs should score plenty of runs. I like Theriot and Soriano at the top of the lineup. While their offense may not have quite the weapons that a few of the other division contenders do, they have the best pitching. Carlos Zambrano and Rich Hill haven't even hit their prime yet and both are among the better starters in the NL already. Lilly is very steady in the 2 spot. It will be interesting to see how Dempster...
Tout Wars Draft Results - National League
2008-03-23 15:31:00
By raygu: I see the results of the Tout Wars NL-only auction draft are posted now: Tout Wars One thing I usually do is confirm my thoughts on what a player's value is vs. the dollar value I plan on retaining him at. One guy that stuck out was the much discussed Albert Pujols. He went for $30 in this 13 team draft. There were 13 guys that went for more, while 2 others went for $30 also-Jake Peavy and Eric Brynes. There were 4 players-Garrett Atkins, Lance Berkman, Carlos Beltran and Brandon Phillips-who went for $1 less at $29. The 13 players who went for more than $30 are as follows: Reyes-$44 Wright-$42 Ramirez-$40 Santana-$40 Holliday-$38 Utley-$37 Rollins-$36 Howard-$36 Braun-$36 Fielder-$35 Teixeira-$33 Soriano-$31 C. Lee-$31 In one of my NL-only keeper leagues, Pujols was retained at $38, and in another keeper league, the owner is retaining him at $46. I think the "experts" have him valued correctly due to the injury concerns with his elbow. But, with Pujols hot spring, do the...

They have 3 legit MVP candidates in their everyday lineup and their starting pitching has looked incredibly strong this spring. Pedro Martinez looks healthy and ready to go and he and Santana should form a nice 1-2 punch. Jose Reyes took a small step back last season after a great '06 campaign. I'm expecting him to have his best year yet hitting over .300 with 20 home runs and 70 stolen bases at the top of that lineup. Their outfield surrounding Carlos Beltran is their only question mark heading into the season. Moises Alou is hurt and going to start the year on the DL ...
