Joe Vandercook -

The Astros have shown no signs of slowing down as we hit the middle of May. Houston is led by the hottest bat in baseball right now and he'll look to lead Houston to another win.

Joe Vandercook - LeBron has been embarrassed so far against the Celtics, but don't expect that to continue when the Cavaliers get back home. Boston won't get their first road playoff win tonight.

Joe Vandercook - Kyle Kendrick has been a two pitch pitcher thus far in 2008, that is likely to spell trouble for him against the second highest scoring offense in the NL.

Joe Vandercook - Marlins left-hander Scott Olsen has been sharp thus far in '08 and he has a nice track record vs. the Brewers lineup. The Fish get the win tonight and keep pace in the NL East.

Joe Vandercook - Chicago's Mark Buehrle and Toronto's Shawn Marcum should keep this contest on the low side of the total tonight.  Take the Under when the Blue Jays host the White Sox.

Joe Vandercook - The Orioles have already had more success against the Mariners in 2008 than they did all of last season. Baltimore is a much improved team with a much improved attitude. O's take the series.

Joe Vandercook - Cubs starter Rich Hill is the better starter and he is supported by the better lineup. The Cubs are likely minus their top RP, but we're only betting them through the first five innings.

Joe Vandercook - Two of the hottest teams in the NL collide as the Mets invade Chicago tonight. Each team sends out a formidable starter, but these offenses are clicking too well to stay under.

Joe Vandercook - Arizona is the hottest team in the National League right now and they'll take advantage of a team that's cold at the plate today. Win number two will have to wait for Young.

Joe Vandercook - The Cardinals and the Tar Heels are two of the most impressive teams in the Nation; one will head home later tonight. This game figures to be close, too close to lay six points.
