Rocky 1-3 start and lose 1366 yesterday... Thanks to Soriano misplaying two balls in LF and hitting a HR, he obviously had the OVER... and the Texas pen gives up 2 in the 9th to stick it in me as well... oh well, onto today's mess...
Didn't like anything early, though I did see value in betting Duke at that ridiculous price against Mulder.
Cubs game is difficult. Emmell has been a OVER ump early this year (3-1... But his last 5 CUB have gone UNDER and his last 8 are 0-7 with 1 push.....
Guzman is making his ML debut. In Iowa this year he was only 1-2 with a 6.61 ERA and his numbers were not impressive, except that he struck out 23 to just 3 walks in 16 1/3 innings in his 3 starts. Expect him to give them 5-6 innings today if he's got his command and let the pen take over.
Will take a stab at Philly OVER tonight. Staggering ERA's, good trends and Crawford behind home plate make it a solid investment...
The play: Col/Phi OVER 9.5 -110 at CRIS - 550 to win 500
Oakland and Texas have alternated wins this year and it sure seems like a good spot to play the A's but they are an awful favorite and the ball really flies out of the Ballpark in the daytime (10-4-1 last 15 day games OVER)... so Harden might not be as good as he has been. Tschida is an UMP that would be more toward the low-end and an under guy but I made the game a little higher, and anytime I can bet a Texas game OVER 9 with Loe pitching in the daytime at home... well.... let's just say you got me...
The play: OVER 9 -120 at CRIS - 360 to win 300
My favorite bet in two days. The Angels are 8-0 in the last 8 day starts for Lackey but Maroth has been out of this world in 2006, with a 0.49 ERA, so something's gotta give. Bell is 2-1 OVERS this year, but 6 of his last 7 went UNDER in 2005 and he's gotten some shitty pitchers so far in '06. This total was way too high and I pounded it when I got the chance.
The play: UNDER 8 -103 at Pinny - 618 to win 600
Wakefield has gotten little to no run support all season despite not pitching badly in any of his starts. Dowdy is the UMP in Cleveland tonight and his only game behind the plate was a pitcher's duel between Robertson and Meche (2-0) but he is traditionally an OVER guy slightly... tough game to call though it looks like the Red Sox are winning a lot of close games but might not be as good as the 05 or 04 versions from what I've watched.
No bet yet, still looking at some stuff... back with the rest in a little bit....
GL!
