Two more F5 winners and here's what our LT clients got in addition to a winning day, which we try to do every day. Somebody has to do the work, and this is my bi-monthly self-promotion.
Obviously NOT laying -170 with the Pirates. Yes, they're probably winners but when I saw the steam earlier I thought perhaps Rizzo wasn't playing, but he is. I'd take the Cubs RL anyways.
People line up to take San Diego, and although I can't disagree, but I can't take the Padres right now because they aren't hitting worth a sh*t. Tough game. Didn't call the winner, but stayed off a loss.
I do lean over in the Mets game, only because Estrada can hit very well and I don't trust Dice or their bullpens.
I will not be touching a Reds game for some time. I know I've said that before.
There is some merit to taking the Nationals, who hit LHP far better than RHP and are obviously super-hot. The only reason I haven't yet is I hate jumping on a train to late, but it's the Nats or nothing here.
By process of elimination, the Twins RL or nothing. I don't care what the lineup for Toronto is, J.A. Happ is not worth -170 by any means, especially with that bullpen.
I lean Boston a little over the Orioles, simply because they hit Tillman well and have a better bullpen. However, I can't trust Workman enough to bet on, either, but perhaps F5 because they (Baltimore) hasn't seen him.
I'd have to take the Royals. Clearly the Indians are over valued after last night, but that's WHY. It's hot in Texas to be playing a game that featured 24 runs, and the Royals were rained out, hence rested.
No chance of taking the Tigers at -150 even with JV pitching. Actually, in the division, ESPECIALLY with Verlander pitching because the White Sox know all about him. Worst pen probably loses, and I think this game finds a way to hit 9, and if we could still get get I'd have done it. Both teams should get to four.
I suspect people are now thinking the A's are fully back in the West Coast time zone, but I am not as big a Pomeranz fan as some. I'd actually take the Angels at home at even money or so.
I really, really, really, want to take the Yankees here and have come close several times. I also like the over quite a bit. We'll see what happens early, and I already did bet the F5.
