Today was a 1-0-1 day due to an over pushing after reaching the number in the top of the fifth.. I guess I can't complain still having won some cash.
The early games have a few buried landmines, but I'm going to roll with dice with one of them.
Braves/Mets - Braves -110 (2 units)
I like Jurrjens in this spot today. It is really tough to bet against or for a knuckleballer, but the Braves have had success against RA Dickey in the past. If Bourn can reach base a few times, I give the Braves a chance at 4+ runs here. However, they might as well keep Uggla on the bench, because he is maybe the worst off-speed hitter in the NL East. If you're looking for a sure winner, this is not the play. I do think that it is worth the price, however, so I'll give it a roll. Will be on later with a late play or two.
Good luck, gents!
