BillHill999's Play of the day

billhill999 · Jul 18, 2011

Houston +101 over Washington
Lyles v. Marquis.

The current Houston line up is 46 for 130 lifetime against Marquis.
That's an insane .354
More importantly Houston's line up has a ridiculously high on base percentage of .425
That's two base runners every inning.

Carlos Lee is .400 in 40 at bats
Hunter Pence is 11 for 22 .500
Jason Michaels is .700

The whole damn Houston team lights up this gas can.

Here, don't take my word for it.

Houston starts Jordan Lyles.
You guys know how I feel about him.
He's a strike out artist.
Tonight's the night.

Washington has never faced him, clear advantage for Lyles, plus, with all the expected run support, he should be very comfortable at home tonight.

I really love this spot tonight, Houston at home, getting +101 against Marquis who they kill.

I agree they'll light up Marquis, especially in Houston's bandbox. But Washington lit up 2 of the Braves' best starters this weekend, and Lyles has slipped as of late. The over looks like a good play too.

Damn glad I read this early enough. I had Wash penciled in my parlay tonight but will switch to Houston now. Fuck I hate betting Houston they blow, but I will ride ya Bill.

Lyles pitched well, guy is hard luck, went into the ninth, maybe he shouldn't have started the ninth.

Oh well..................

def cringed when he came out for the 9th
had pitched a great game and no need to come out already having thrown I believe it was 99 pitches or so before the 9th.

anyways, thanks for the play bill. I would play this one again and again with the #'s on our side like they were here. we'll get 'em another day
