Cleveland Cavaliers: A New Day

Here we are at lunch time the day following one of the biggest announcements in NBA history and folks in Cleveland are still whining. The fact of the matter is this, Lebron very well may have done you a favor and the least you can do is respect a grown man’s decision regarding his career choices. The good people of Cleveland have to quit sobbing like babies and find the good in Lebron’s decision. The Cleveland Cavaliers need to direct their anger toward Dan Gilbert, the one person who has the ability to make the necessary changes.

The letter Dan Gilbert wrote was uncalled for and completely unnecessary. Cleveland fans have to remember that basketball is a team game. While Dan hasn’t given the organization much by the way of leadership, he did make some promises in that letter. So, good fans of the Cleveland Cavaliers, look to the man who has made you a promise of energy, focus, experience and a championship.

Once you put your faith in the only person in a team game that can make those promises come true, the owner, make sure you re-evaluate who deserves your anger. It is very possible that no one deserves the kind of backlash that Lebron is facing. When a personal relationship goes bad due to cheating, the only person to blame is the cheater, not the third party. In this case, don’t be mad at Lebron, he couldn’t do it alone, the time has come for the Cleveland Cavaliers to point the finger in the right direction.

With a day off on Wednesday in MLB we look to get back on a hot streak as we are still up big on the season. Thursday we have a total of nine pitchers with ERA's under 3.00 over their last three starts combined and a total of five pitchers with ERA's over 6.00 over their last three combined starts. There was one match up that stuck out and we marked them down as our POD.

Mark the Brewers Down! ( -140 2.5* FREE PLAY )
For whatever reason Shaun Marcum has loved to pitch on the road as he has an ERA of 3.20 over the last three years on the road. That's much better than his home record and he's back at it again with a 2.77 ERA this year. He's been great of late posting a 1.80 ERA, but the Brewers lost 2 of 3. He should be motivated to keep that up so he can get a W and the Astros are the team to do it against. He's got a 1.80 ERA over 3 starts vs. the Astros who carry just a .637 OPS in 73 AB vs. Marcum. A few weeks ago I'd be on the Astros, but they are starting to come back to earth as they are now 24th with a .686 OPS vs. RHP while the Brewers are 8th with a .737 OPS vs. LHP.

The Brewers are 8th and they face J.A. Happ who they have dominated. Happ and the Astros are 10-30 in their last 40 with Happ on the mound. He's really not the player they thought he'd be when they traded Roy Oswalt for him. Happ has a 5.40 ERA at home right now and the Brewers have a 1.139 OPS over 80 AB in their careers vs. Happ who carries a 6.08 ERA over the last three years vs. the Brewers. Brewers are 18-7 in their last 25 after Wednesday's loss to the Astros and are 47-17 in their last 64 vs. a losing team. Mark down the Brewers as a victory for Thursday.

Notable Hot Starters:
R.A. Dickey (2-1, 1.15 WHIP, 2.70 ERA)
Matt Cain (2-1, 0.90 WHIP, 2.14 ERA)
James McDonals (2-1, 1.05 WHIP, 2.05 ERA)
Brandon Beachy (2-1, 0.93 WHIP, 2.33 ERA)
Edinson Volquez (3-0, 1.20 WHIP, 1.47 ERA)
Doug Fister (1-2, 0.90 WHIP, 0.54 ERA)
Brandon McCarthy (3-0, 0.97 WHIP, 1.31 EAR)
Chris Sale (1-2, 1.00 WHIP, 2.84 ERA)

Cold Starter Of The Day:
On Thursday we have an ice cold starter that makes for an interesting match up in Luke Hochevar of the Royals. First of the Royals have been red hot since their cold start and Hochevar needs to get with the program. Against the Orioles he could do just that as he has great numbers vs. them in 96 combined at bats the Orioles have a .198 average and .590 OPS.

Notable Cold Starters:
J.A. Happ (1-2, 1.59 WHIP, 7.16 ERA)
Matt Moore (1-2, 1.86 WHIP, 6.43 ERA)
Matt Harrison (1-2, 1.41 WHIP, 8.27 ERA)
Chris Volstad (0-3, 1.71 WHIP, 7.94 ERA)
