Handicappers PicksJun 7, 2010

For every home team that is red hot, there has to be a visiting team that just can’t figure out how to put it together quite yet. Some of the worst squads in baseball are on this MLB betting list to stay away from.

Season Standings
1: Baltimore Orioles (6-25, -$1,503) – Since the last time that we took a look at the Orioles’ road woes, manager Dave Trembley has been fired and they still haven’t won a game away from Oriole Park (0-6, -$600). In fairness, dropping three games at Rogers Centre and Yankee Stadium aren’t anything to be overly ashamed of, but still, Baltimore has just been a train wreck this year, as it is impossible to make money in this game when you’re playing .194 ball on the road.

2: Arizona Diamondbacks (9-22, -$1,054) – We’ll take a closer look at the Diamondbacks in a second, but there is clearly something wrong with the pitching staff in Arizona at this point, especially on the road. RHP Dan Haren hasn’t won a road game since May 6th, and he had allowed six dingers in his previous two starts before throwing eight shutout innings against the Dodgers early last week.

3: New York Mets (8-18, -$840) – Step right up and beat the Mets! New York has yet to win a road series this year, and it’s a miracle that manager Jerry Manuel still has a job with this type of a record away from Citi Field. The only thing saving his skin? A 22-9 record in front of the hometown faithful. Still, the Metropolitans are going to have to win a few more games on the road to have a shot of making the playoffs.

Who’s Not?
1: Arizona Diamondbacks (0-5, -$502) – Over their L/12 road games, the Diamondbacks have scored exactly 23 runs, an average of less than two runs per game, and they are only 1-11 to show for it. Considering the fact that they are conceding a lofty 5.83 runs per game in that stretch, it’s no wonder why this team is in the gutter in the NL West.

2: Baltimore Orioles (0-5, -$500) – The Orioles haven’t scored more than three runs in a road game since May 22nd, and have only topped that three run barrier in one road game against an American League team since May 8th. That’s just not going to win any games for you and is the main reason when Trembley has been replaced.

3: Pittsburgh Pirates (0-5, -$500) – You’re going to have stretches like this, especially on the road if you’re betting on the Pirates all the time. The Bucs may be ten games under .500 on the road, but they are relatively close to the breakeven point in terms of MLB wagering profit and loss. The next time that we see this team on the road is going to be the most anticipated Pittsburgh game all season long. The Nats will be debuting RHP Stephen Strasburg.
