Toronto: 2 units -1. Henderson Alvarez is one of the best pitchers no one has heard about. Nasty sink on his fastball, decent change-up. And can throw hard. He is showing ability and composure start by start. The Twins might truly be the worst team in baseball. How could they fall so far so fast? In their last 9 games, they have 18 runs. The bullpen is mediocre and they don't seem to have any home field advantage. Marquis is a decent sinker ball pitcher with a limited repertoire. If Toronto can adjust (like most teams do), Marquis will give up the hits.

Blue Jays -1/2 (first 5 innings) 2 units. Just in case the Jays pen blows the save.

So does that make it a run line bet?

Its a combination. If you are interested you can go back over o freds post for the last week. Someone was nice enough to post the formula.

As for me, a dollar on the runline and a dollar on the moneyline is close enough. If I were betting dimes I would look it up.

Add one unit Texas, 2nd game - team total over 5. Hunter is living on borrowed time. 86-90 MPH fastball, with erratic control at times, at other times down the middle of the plate. Also, Baltimore bullpen is being exposed as of late. Considering the over for the game too.

To answer someone's earlier question, it is common to think of the run line as -1 1/2.

Marquis- 87 pitches after 4 innings. Jays are working him, making him throw strikes. We'll be seeing a reliever soon.
