09/07/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Milwaukee Brewers are coming off their best offensive performance of the season. They will try to keep swinging their big bats tonight in the first of three straight games against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park.
In Wednesday's 14-2 win over the Houston Astros, the Brewers clubbed five home runs to support Yovani Gallardo's seven scoreless innings. Prince Fielder, Ryan Braun and Corey Hart each had three-run homers, while Geoff Jenkins and Bill Hall also went deep.
Gallardo (7-4), meanwhile, scattered six hits over his quality outing, striking out five and walking a pair.
Things got better the next day for Milwaukee, which has won five of its last six games, when Chicago lost to the Dodgers, dropping the Cubs into a tie with the Brewers for the top spot in the National League Central. Both clubs have identical records of 71-68.
The Brewers will send Dave Bush to the hill tonight hoping the right-hander can win his third straight decision. He bested the Pirates on Saturday, holding the club to one run and four hits over six innings. The victory improved Bush to 11-9 on the season with a 4.83 earned run average, though he is 8-3 over his last 15 outings.
Bush has had little success against the Reds in his career, going 1-1 in six starts against them with a 6.68 ERA.
Bronson Arroyo will start tonight for Cincinnati and is a disappointing 7-14 this year with a 4.43 ERA. He picked up a loss in his last start on Sunday, giving up three runs and eight hits over 6 1/3 innings in St. Louis.
The right-hander is 5-3 with a 3.58 ERA in 11 career outings against the Brewers, eight of those starts. He did pick up a win over the club on August 17, holding Milwaukee to three runs over 7 1/3 innings.
The Reds halted a five-game losing streak on Wednesday in a big way, blanking the Mets 7-0. Tom Shearn and three relievers combined for the three-hit shutout.
Shearn (2-0) went six innings, allowing three hits with three walks and three strikeouts. Marcus McBeth, Jared Burton and Mike Stanton each threw one hitless inning in relief.
Brandon Phillips belted his 28th homer of the year, breaking Joe Morgan's 1976 team record for home runs in a season by a second baseman. Joey Votto also homered for his first major league hit in his second career at-bat for Cincinnati.
The Reds are 6-3 against the Brewers this year and have won four of six over the club at home.

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
