Off a nice 4-0 sweep with some additional leans/winners in our write ups, we're just moving on. Things can turn on a dime, but winning certainly does make it easier. Our Free Forum play on the Mets-D-Backs over cashed, so it is simply "next".
Dave's Triple Dime Tuesday and/or Discounted Long Term Packages!
Going to have to be brief today and will be back w/the free plays this afternoon.
Atlanta-Philadelphia: I guess we don't really know what we're getting w/Hale, but honestly against a team that's seen so much of Cliff Lee, I can't lay -150, especially not after the collapse last night. We were on the over (we'll take it) knowing that both pens are trashed, which is no different tonight. But, terrible baseball weather in Philly tonight. Then again, it was in Cincinnati last night.
Miami-Nationals: You guys know I simply will not lay -180 on the road, and Strasburg just hasn't been right. Not saying the Fish are a live dog, but only Fish RL or Nats in a parlay for me.
Pirates-Reds: I had said watching Cole pitch last week that we'd fade him next time out and I won't change my mind. Teams are seeing more of him now. However, we'll have to see about the continuation of last nights' game and how it effects the pitching staffs. Wind still gonna be blowing, but very cold.
Cardinals-Brewers: Last night was a game where the sharp money on St. Louis turned out to be right. We'll discuss this more soon. Miller hasn't been himself and Estrada is no stranger to St. Louis. Yadier should be back in the lineup, and part of me wonders if the fact that the Brewers finally lost doesn't have them thinking too much. They hadn't been hitting as well going into last night, or I might lean over here.
Mets-Arizona: I see that total is (at least the vig) going up again, and I wonder if that's not an over reaction to last night and recent bullpen issues on both sides. Both starting pitchers are quite capable, but Arroyo has been hit and the D-backs haven't seen Mejia. Lean under at least early and if it goes to 9.5 and perhaps Mets F5 again.
Colorado-San Diego: Simply have to wonder where the Rockies heads' are at after last night (thank you) and the lack of a bullpen, period. Nicasio is "better" on the road, but the Padres have certainly seen him, so it's almost San Diego or nothing without even looking much further.
Dodgers-Giants: Obviously I don't trust either of these starters but both could throw shutouts, too. Both teams playing well, and the total (vig) moving closer to 8 (I doubt it goes there) would seemingly favor the home team, and they DO have the better bullpen, as much as it may pain me to back Lincecum.
I shall see about the AL games later in the day, or sooner if time permits.
