Off our 2* MLB win yesterday with the TB Rays ML, that puts us at 6-2 +1048 with posted 2*s this season. We did lose our posted 1* total and that now puts us at 5-1 this week with posted 1* totals. I have a RL play today. The only RL game posted this week was a win with the Astros +1.5 covering. So let's look to make it a 2-0 click on the RL this week with today's play!
1* TB Rays -1.5 +140 - We are going back to the well today with TB. This is a complete gut call for me, based on the fact that both pitchers have swayed this game for a bettor. To me Porcello for DET is on a high. He is not a proven guy to myself such as David Price is. Yes Porcello is riding hot but I believe he can't even believe it. In interviews leading up to this game Porcello stated he doesn't want to talk about the streak as he might jinx it. That his defense has helped out in big spots and he has been getting the breaks pitchers need to be as successful starters.
On the other side David Price has proven to me he is an ace. Price leads with Ks this season and also has something to prove. Not only are the Rays riding hot the past 11 games, to keep Price interested, but he is on the trade block. He can still pitch himself into a nice contract and tonight he will show it in primetime. He'll show us he wants to win.
We should have all been on Porcello a couple games ago and rode it when no one was looking into it, now that the light shines bright on him in primetime, he'll come back down to earth, right when he started getting backed.
So take the RL for that added bonus as TB will win by more than 3. Or stick with the ML if you like. BOL.
