Tuesday 5innings

Houston 5innings pk @121 Pinnacle

Risk: 4/10


Ok now what?
Chicagos homefavour is about nonexisting and however sais they are helped by their field and daygames should think again.

They do outbat this Astrosteam on paper but the pitchingmatchup is imho the total opposite. Marquis was terrible least year and I am not expecting him to produce much impressive this year where Sampson on the other hand looks to become a stellar pitcher, maybe not in the rotation thou, but he did show nice things last year.

Florida 5innings pk @-112 Pinnacle

Risk: 5½/10


Rather huge homefavour here and I give the fish a minimal edge in batting.
I do however rank Van den Hurk as the better pitcher, something most seem no too.

Surely this guy might not be ready to go in and dominate as a starter, but since when is Vargas that guy? Nope, this one should be a steady homefavorite.

Adding:

Washington 5inning pk @220 Pinnacle

Risk: 5½/10

Chico with a terrible first outing and Hudson witha impressive game veruss Phillies. One team at 1-6 and the other at 5-1. Sure, I follow.
Dammit, these are numbers 10 days into the season and allready the public starts to back bets using them.

Chico is NOT Hudson, but he is not crap either. Washingtons lineup is not comparable to Atlantas, but hey, they are not gonna end up 23-139 for the season.... I also have Atlanta as big favs, but the value is the other way for sure.



Minnesota 5innings pk @124 Pinnacle

Risk: 4½

Slight advantage for the Pinestripes in both batting as well as the starting pitchers. However homefavour evens this one out completely.
I wonder when peopele will finally realize the Twins are third in most wins over the past three seasons and have just as strong of a lineup this year.

Oh well, Yankees will very end up above in the table at the end of the year, but that is still not enough to favour them in this matchup. Boof is stellar and Pettite is a big ? this year away from the big apple. Let's see how many games they will steal from the topteamsaway from home this year.
