Bonderman leads Tigers in finale at D.C.

Baseball Betting Lines

06/20/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jeremy Bonderman will try for his eighth straight winning decision tonight when his Detroit Tigers wrap their three-game series with the Washington Nationals at RFK Stadium.

Bonderman opened the season with five straight no-decisions before his recent winning burst. His earned run average for the season is 3.92, and the right- hander hasn't lost since September 10 of last year at Minnesota. He closed the 2006 season with three straight wins, and picked up an additional victory in the postseason.

Bonderman, who has never faced the Nationals, was last in action on Friday against the Phillies and picked up the win despite allowing five earned runs for a second consecutive start. He allowed nine hits -- four of them home runs -- but was bailed out by his offense in the 12-8 victory.

Mike Bacsik will try to help Washington avoid being swept by Detroit when he takes the hill tonight. The left-hander is 1-4 on the year with a 4.59 ERA after dropping his last four starts. He lasted just 4 1/3 innings on Friday against Toronto, yielding three runs on nine hits in the 7-2 setback.

Bacsik is 1-0 in his career against the Tigers, besting them while with the Rangers on August 4, 2004 behind seven shutout innings.

Detroit will try to sweep an opponent for the first time since winning all three games against St. Louis on May 18-20 in a rematch of last year's World Series.

On Tuesday, Sean Casey blasted a three-run homer to pace a 17-hit attack as Detroit trounced Washington, 15-1 .

Brandon Inge was 2-for-4 with a three-run double for the Tigers, who have won four of five games and are now tied atop the AL Central with Cleveland. Magglio Ordonez finished 3-for-3 and drove in a pair of runs while Marcus Thames chipped in a two-run homer.

Chad Durbin (6-3) allowed just one run on five hits in six innings and snapped a personal two-start losing streak.

Cristian Guzman was 2-for-3 with the lone RBI for the Nationals, who have lost four of their past five. Dmitri Young was 2-for-4 with two doubles and starter Jason Simontacchi (4-5) was torched for 10 runs on 10 hits in just three innings of work en route to the loss.

This is the first meeting between the clubs since 2002, when the Tigers won two out of three at home over the Montreal Expos.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
