Friday April 15th
Jays / Red Sox over 9 -102 (2.04 / 2u) *Best Bet
-The Jays finally get to play a game outdoors this season. This should bring a breath of fresh air into their lineup (pun intended). They love hitting at Fenway and these are two pitchers (Dickey and Porcello) that I do not care for. These lineups are very familiar with these two pitchers and I expect runs in bunches at Fenway tonight.
Royals -102 (1.02u / 1u)
-My goodness the Athletics lineup is awful. They are averaging 2.7 runs per game through the first 10 game this season. KC is rolling right along doing what they always do: manufacturing runs, pitching well and playing great defence. I don’t see ANY advantage for the A’s in this game, this price is cheap in my opinion.
Astros Team Total Over 4.5 -108 (1.08u / 1u)
-Nice bounce back spot for the Astros here, after a tough series against the Royals. A nice gift here as they get to face Mike Palfrey who is an absolute gas can. He got rocked for 6 earned runs in 2.3 innings against the Yanks in his first start and I expect more of the same here. After the Astros touch him up they should be able to get to the Tigers bullpen as well. Look for the Astros to get the bats going today and put up 5+ runs.
