17-15 +4.00 units ytd

Braves -1.5 (+100) 1.5 units....Been thinking about this one for a few hours. The dilemma: I love Smoltz, but don't love the Braves bullpen, and Smoltz has been on a 80-90 pitch leash so far this season. Last time out I played Smoltz first five innings, but I don't think laying over -200 is worth a 5 inning play. I'll lay the -1.5 runs and take even money, feels like the best bang for my money. If they win by a run, oh well. If they lose the game, I'll at least be happy I didn't lay the juice. Hoping for 5 or 6 more dominant innings from Smoltz again.

going out for a while, maybe something later, good luck

^ Same thoughts.

Was leaning towards parlaying Arizona/Atlanta again tonight, but with Smoltz on such a short leash of late, I decided against it.

Is there value with Washington in your eyes, D?

IMO, with how Lannan threw against the Mets his last time out and how Smoltz isn't capable of going 7+ innings anymore, you either avoid it, take the -1.5 or take Washington.

thanks guys....I actually looked at a play on Washington very briefly, I'm just not in the mood to put my money on a bad team and then watch them play terribly. If Lannan beats me or if Smoltz gets knocked around some, I'll take my medicine...but even money seems like a decent deal to me

Reds/Dodgers Under 9 (-120) 1 unit....another game I looked at a lot today, went back and forth on what I thought was the right team, and now I'm settling with the under. Reds will struggle against lefties this year (one run combined in two losses against Pitt's Gorzelanny and Maholm) and Volquez has apparently put it all together for now. If all else fails, hopefully the Dodgers hitters crap the bed after their mini-burst last night.
