FRIDAY MLB

[gynecologist]

Col.. better lineup and better pitcher. Usually enjoy betting against Marquis.


Looking @ over in KC. Blackburn is a rag, Hochevar is night or day, but I think he could be in for a tough outing. If so I see no reason why both teams cant score 5..

I like Verlander over Peavy who threw 120 pitches in last start. price will be steep so probably -1

Lincecum, Phillies have been playing inspired. Worley has been solid. The freak has good history vs Philly pre 2012. torn on if I should get involved.

Arizona should win.

I think Miami might be a good play. Correia bad history vs Mia.

Super hard to say Colorado is better at anything these days. White Sox-Tigers should be a great series.

I took a flyer on Dempster +141. Dempster is one of the hottest pitchers in the league, and the cardinals offense is having a hard time pushing runs across.

[BetATL]

Only play I've made so far is Tigers, White Sox Under. Like the pitching matchup in a pitchers park.

Only thing that makes me nervous about that is Hochevar is a much better pitcher at home than on the road over his career. But that's been different this year, for whatever reason.

I like Dempster too. He's too good to be getting that kind of juice.

Does anyone else think u9.5 is a good play in CLE/BAL? I like what I've seen from Gonzalez and Lowe gets the job done at home. (Although he may be due for a regression)

Also like the under in DET/CHI. Two strong pitchers.

I'm gonna go with Toronto against Boston +167. Laffey isn't bad and Beckett is getting way too much juice.

Another total I like is the Pirates and Marlins Under 8.5.

Outside of a 9 run output in the opening game against Chicago, the Fish haven't been scoring a ton of runs over the last week and a half. Correria isn't anything special but I think he can be serviceable here before turning it over to a good Pitt bullpen.

Nolasco has very strong numbers against the Pirates and although Pitt has been hitting the ball the last week, they've benefited from playing in two hitters parks. I may be reaching here but they may be getting a little ambitious with their swings after playing in those parks and that could hurt them when they return to PNC.

I like that pick, BetATL, and needed someone else to post about it before I pulled the trigger! Do you think Pitt -105 is a good pick as well? They are a lot better than Miami.

I'm out of the CHI/DET under sweepstakes. I don't feel comfortable with it.

I lean toward Pitt in this game because of their superior bullpen but am not playing it because of Nolasco's strong history against them and also because this is their first home game back after a 6 game road trip, even though they did get a day off yesterday.

Verlander has been off lately, I played Cws thinking the price was too good to pass up. I played a bunch of dogs today Cubs with Dempster and a hot offense, Mil good success against Bailey, and a couple others.
