Giants ace Lincecum puts focus on visiting Nats
Baseball Betting Lines
05/26/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Though often a victim of a shaky bullpen this year, Giants
ace Tim Lincecum knows the result of his last start is mainly on him. An
extra-focused Lincecum is probably the last thing the Nationals want to see
tonight.
Lincecum will try to bounce back from his shortest outing of the season this
evening in the continuation of a three-game series between San Francisco and
Washington at AT&T Park.
Lincecum is still undefeated on the season, going 5-0 with a 2.35 earned run
average, but he could have another three victories had his bullpen not blown a
trio of leads given to it by the right-hander. Though the 'pen technically
gave away a lead in Lincecum's latest outing, the two-time defending National
League Cy Young Award winner wasn't his sharpest either.
The 25-year-old lasted just five innings on Thursday versus Arizona, yielding
a season-high five runs on five hits while also walking five batters for a
second start in a row. He exited with his team down 5-2 and San Francisco
scored five runs in the sixth inning before eventually dropping an 8-7 game
and leaving Lincecum with a no-decision.
"I don't think it was the hits I gave up, it was the placement of my walks,
and that's always going to kill you," Lincecum said.
The former 10th overall pick of the 2006 draft has a sparkling 1.77 ERA in
three career starts versus Washington, but is just 1-0. He has also shined at
home in four 2010 starts, going 3-0 with a 1.78 ERA.
While Lincecum is trying to recover from his worst start of the season,
Washington's Luis Atilano will try to do something he has never done in his
young career: bounce back from a loss.
The 25-year-old entered his sixth MLB start on Thursday versus the Mets 3-0
with a 3.90 ERA, but he gave up a career-high seven runs, six of those earned,
over a season-low 4 1/3 innings in a 10-7 setback, the first of his career.
The right-handed Atilano saw his ERA jump to 5.06, but he is a solid 2-0 with
a 2.76 ERA in three road starts and faces the Giants for the first time this
evening.
San Francisco carried a 20-inning scoreless drought into Tuesday's opener but
exploded for four runs in the fifth inning, the only frame the Giants would
score in en route to a 4-2 victory.
Pablo Sandoval capped the burst with an RBI double, while Freddy Sanchez had a
two-run double and Edgar Renteria added a run-scoring single in the frame to
help the Giants snap a five-game losing streak.
Renteria, though, had to exit in the seventh inning due to strained right
hamstring. He had just been reinstated from the disabled list on Saturday
after missing time with a right groin strain.
"You're trying to get some consistency. That's what's frustrating," Giants
manager Bruce Bochy said on his club's website. "Edgar had such a great game
and he could be down for a little while."
Todd Wellemeyer gave up two runs on four hits in six-plus innings to earn the
win, while former Giants hurler Livan Hernandez took the loss for Washington
after his five-inning effort that was solid except for the one frame.
"He wanted to come here and pitch well. He pitched here for several years and
I could see he wanted this one today," Nationals reliever Tyler Walker said.
"He made good pitches, but they hit a couple of [soft hits] here and there and
the floodgates opened."
Josh Willingham and Ian Desmond each knocked in run in the seventh inning for
Washington, which has dropped eight of its last 11 and six straight on the
road. The Nats opened a 10-game road trip on Tuesday.
After sweeping the seven-game series set in 2008, the Giants won four of six
versus the Nationals a season ago.

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.
