Detroit Tigers +170
Pitchers: Penny/Burnett
Burnett was crap last season and is pitching with a head cold that could mess with him today. Penny is a bit iffy since he had an up-and-down spring, but there is no way I can lay off at +170.
Correction, burnett was crap last season for the last 3 months and that was without a pitching coach for those 3 months, when his pitching coach came back he did well in the playoffs... burnett last year at the ASB had a 2.20 ERA...this spring burnett hasnt walked a single batter, mechanics totally changed spent the winter with larry roch his new coach.....and burnett had a cold last week he said yesterday he is fine and good to go and with no effects.........also penny has been horrid against the yankees in his career and a righty on the mound facing this lineup that is lefty heavy, not fun....but the value is good at +170 so i dont think its a bad bet at value almost 2-1.. lay 100 to get 170 is still worth it ...goodluck jake
Thank you and good points. I just can't trust Burnett. He throws a shitty game every time I back him, so hopefully he can give me the same performance when I bet against him.
Youre right he is very inconsistent...if this game was in detroit and verlander or scherzer on the mound id back detroit too, but first weekend game in the bronx, gorgeous day, bad pitcher on the hill for the tigers, that is why the line is +170..but again i dont want to be disrespectful i just thought youd like some yankee home input! goodluck
Penny is getting knocked around. Nice call.
