Sports Betting Online – A Look At Saturday’s Betting Slate

[Freddy Wills]

Sportsbook reviews (read more official reviews ) would say that the Olympics was a resounding success as it wraps up this weekend, but that isn’t the only action in your sportsbook as there is always baseball and a UFC card from Denver as well.

Olympic Betting

Men’s 4x100 relay (check book for time): It would be a major surprise if Jamaica weren’t the favorites for this event, led by Usain Bolt and Yohan Blake, who finished 1-2 in the individual portion of the 100-meter dash.

Brazil Mexico Odds (2:45 PM ET): Brazil is a -175 favorite to win their first Olympic gold medal as they take on Mexico, who wasn’t highly thought of heading into the tournament, but they’re ready to shock the world for a massive upset on the world stage.

MLB Odds

Yankees Blue Jays Odds (1:07 PM ET): New York’s Ivan Nova and Toronto’s Aaron Laffey will face off at the Rogers Center on Saturday afternoon, and this could be a day where you look at the total when you as the hitters could have the edge here.

Cardinals Phillies Odds (7:05 PM ET): Cliff Lee will get the call for Philadelphia, while Jake Westbrook counters for the Cardinals, who are still in the hunt for a wild-card spot in the National League, but they have to start a push right now.

Braves Mets Odds (7:10 PM ET): Kris Medlen will take to the hill for Atlanta, another team with aspirations of the playoffs, while New York goes with Johan Santana, who makes his return to the rotation after an ankle injury.

Dodgers Marlins Odds (7:10 PM ET): Joe Blanton won his first start as a Dodger and he’ll be on the mound for Los Angeles, who will take on Ricky Nolasco in Miami.

Tigers Rangers Odds (8:05 PM ET): Even players know that Justin Verlander is a great pitcher, and he has had the Rangers’ number in his career, while Texas steps up with Derek Holland in a huge American League showdown.

UFC Betting

UFC 150 Odds (main card starts at 9:00 PM ET): The lightweight division will be the focus of UFC 150, as champion Ben Henderson will go for a second win over the man he took the belt from, Frankie Edgar, in what should be a carbon copy of their exciting first meeting. Meanwhile, fighters that know each other very well will meet as Donald Cerrone faces Melvin Guillard, who trained with Cerrone under Greg Jackson. The two strikers will look to steal the show on Saturday, which is when you’ll find Cerrone with a major edge over Guillard in your picks.
