SATURDAY, MAY 31
MYSTERIOUS FUN FACT
There are only four days in this baseball season that occur on the 31st of a month.
4 x 31 = 124
12 x 4 = 48
4 x 8 = 32
30 x 2 = 60
WHICH JUST HAPPENS TO BE THE DISTANCE FROM PITCHERS RUBBER TO HOME PLATE!!!!
(plus add six inches, but sssssssssshhhh!)
Explain that one, all you guys who swallowed the KoolAid of the 9/11 Commission
=========
LITTLE RANGERS (price to follow) vs Athletic $12
Was showing -103 and now it's off the board. I'm good no matter who pitches this one.
----------------------------
DEVIL RAY -143 vs Hose $12
Going to come right back as planned if Friday didn't hit -1.5 (using it down the line in a parlay) and rely on Kazmir to snuff the South Siders while looking for DRays LH power to come through here and get us the edge vs the possibly tough Vazquez who has been fairly reliable for opponents to yak during his past several seasons. He's only given up six taters so far in first ten starts and today is where some balance kicks in.
Not a clincher by itself on accounta the Chisox bullpen is about as nasty as any in past couple weeks with an almost non-existent ERA.
We'll also refer again to this stat, which updated after Friday's game
TBAY past 12 games at Home After Scoring 2 or less in previous game are now 11-1 with ten of the wins covering the -1.5
---------------------------
REDLEG +123 vs TheATL $9
Jurjjens pitching is not a bad deal for Braves, but they're nonetheless just 7-19 in road games so far and have won only once in five road starts by JJ
Cincy meanwhile is a sturdy 17-10 at Home and though Fogg is non-inspiring the Reds bullpen at Home and in Past10 is nicely under 3.00
------------------------
PADRE +103 at Giant $9
PADRE/GIANT Undah 9 (-120) $9
Given records to date, this one seems to shout Giants, but in nine career starts with Lisch, they're so far winless.
As for the Total - To top 9, at least one team must score six runs.
SD Away this season scoring 6+ (5-22) Allowing 6+ (10-17)
SF Home this season scoring 6+ (6-21) Allowing 6+ (11-16)
Past 24 H2H between these two teams have seen just five games top 9 (5-18-1)
2TeamParlay
DEVILRAY -1.5 (+145)
ASTRO +1.5 (-140)
Lay 8
Pays 24.44
TBay reasoning explained above. As for Houston, they're a strong offensive team that has scored 1, 2 and 1 in past three outings.
This season After Scoring 2 or less runs, Astros have covered the +1.5 in nine of 13 chances. Roll back into last season and they hit nine of last 14 chances in this role (combined 18-9)
Quasi-chase component in play since in Friday's game they played this role and did NOT cover the +1.5
==========
Best to us all for a profitable Saturday
Off to pack a morning bowl
