- Analysis: Play On: NY Yankees w/Pettite
Note: The Pinstripes play host to their crosstown rival Mets at Yankees Stadium Saturday afternoon when they send Andy Pettite to the mound. Pettite has enjoyed hurling against the Mets in his MLB career, going 12-6 with a 3.15 ERA. He's also win five of his last six team starts on Saturdays. With the Yankees having come up winners in 13 of the last 19 games as a host in this series, look for the big lefty to come up big here this afternoon.

- Analysis:
Kansas City opened the season by winning six of its first eight games but had fallen six games below .500 (15-21) before winning its fifth straight last night, 7-6 in Florida. The Marlins began the week 23-14 but have lost four in a row, while allowing 24 runs. They are hoping that Scott Olsen can get them turned around tonight and why not? The lefty has rebounded from last year's poor 10-15 season to go 4-1 with a 2.63 ERA in eight starts. The Marlins have won SEVEN of those eight starts, as Olsen has kept opponents in check all season, allowing just 38 hits over his 54.2 innings. KC will send Brian Bannister to the mound. Bannister opened the '08 season almost unhittable, going 3-0 with an 0.86 ERA (allowed just 10 hits and two ERs over 21 innings)! However, he lost that 'magic' very quickly, dropping four consecutive starts, while allowing 33 hits and 19 ERs over 21.1 innings (8.02 ERA). KC is hoping that last Sunday's start (8 IP / 2 hits / 0 runs) against Baltimore (4-0 Royals win) will get Bannister "back on track" but I'm not completely sold. The Royals have scored just 153 runs (3.73 per), which is the second-fewest in MLB and I don't expect them to get much here vs Olsen. I'm backing Olsen and anticipate that the Marlins will end their four-game losing streak and snap KC's five-game winning streak, all at the same time. Take Florida. - > See Larry Ness's Premium Picks

- Analysis: 7:10pm ET / OAKLAND A's with Harden @ ATLANTA Braves with Hudson
Play on: UNDER the TOTAL
It doesn't get more "UNDER"- whelming than this one! Oakland comes
into tonight's game on a current streak of 0-4 O/U In their last 4
games... and 2-7-1 O/U in their last 10. The Braves counter with a
current streak of 1-8-1 O/U in their last 10 games. DID YOU NOW? That
the Braves are already an amazing 11-29-1 O/U on the season?
Throw in a couple of STUD starting pitchers, and this one is a
no-brainer. Both starters have very favorable numbers in NIGHT starts
this year. RICH HARDEN has an ERA of only 1.50 "Under the Light's in
2008 while TIM HUDSON's NIGHT time ERA is only 1.99. Hudson is working
on a current 5-start streak in which he has allowed ZERO home runs,
while Harden has allowed ZERO "Dingers" in his last two starts.
Here's what 'seals the deal': DAN IASSOGNA gets the call behind the
dish tonight. His OU record on the season is already an UNDER-whelming
1-6 O/U.... and a PERFECT 0-5 O/U In his last 5 overall. Average runs
per game is only 6.3. He has a very high strike percentage of 64% on
the year, with a K/BB ratio of 2.43 to 1.... which is very good for an
UNDER Umpire. Average 'Punch Outs' per game (K's) is 15.3. Average
'Free Passes' (BB's) is only 6.3. To back us up, we note that IASSOGNA
has very good career numbers in INTERLEAGUE games with a record of
9-20-1 O/U in the last 10 years. Also 2-9-1 O/U dating back to last
season on SATURDAYS.
King Creole NAILED another NBA Playoff selection last night with
the OUTRIGHT gutsy UNDERDOG winner on the LOS ANGELES LAKERS! Gutsy
considering the DOMINANCE of home teams thus far in Round Two action.
On Saturday, if you're into OVER / UNDERS.... then join us for a
"HIGH"-scoring evening! Tonight's BIG 3 OVER / UNDERS
in Interleague play are ALSO supported by Key home plate UMPIRE O/U
numbers (like above).... and ALL three games are going "OVER the TOTAL"! - > See King Creole's Premium Picks
