    Cavorca MLB Fri

    Fri 6/20:

    YTD: 200-231 (-13.15 Units)


    Chicago WS +121
    ... 1 Unit

    Atlanta -130 ... 1.25 Units


    Don't really like that Atl is such an overwhelmingly public fav, but I played them last night still have to back the play. Here are a couple bits of info I read that are part of my reasoning for the play.

    Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
    Campillo will be pitching against his former team, for which he made eight appearances over the previous three seasons. He spent most of his time with that organization recovering from "Tommy John" elbow ligament transplant surgery. Wait until the Mariners see him now. He has been dominant in six starts since joining the Braves rotation, going 2-1 as a starter with a 2.78 ERA, a .246 opponents' batting average and only four walks in 32 1/3 innings. The Braves won each of his first four starts but have lost the past two against the Phillies and Angels. He allowed only a two-run homer to Casey Kotchman in a career-high eight innings Sunday but lost 2-0 to the Angels.

    ESPN:
    June 16
    News: Campillo gave up two runs over eight innings with seven strikeouts and no walks, but was a hard-luck 2-0 loser Sunday to the Angels. After the start, he said he has no issue with the blister on his right middle finger that bothered him the last four starts. "I feel good, no more blisters, my curveball is back," he told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
    Spin: Campillo hadn't lasted more than 5.1 innings in any of his last four starts due to the blister problem. It sounds like he's back to full strength after the blister limited the use of his curve ball.

    Good Luck with the Braves... they'll have their hands full with Bedard. Their power numbers are cut in half against LHP. Erik Bedard has a 6-1 record in interleague play, 2.04 ERA // 1.08 WHIP in 13 starts, with nine of the past 10 being QS. But by no means am I recommending the Mariners. I liked the under but it already dropped from 9 to 8.

      Thanks Biff. You're right, Bedard is def "better than the numbers" IMO and won't be a pushover, but as you probably figured, Campillo was a big reason for the play, along with all Atl's typical stuff this year. Tough one w/ CWS. Watched the first several innings but thankfully missed the late game action...

      Also looking at some later games as well. GL! :thumbs:

              I woulda settled for a push after that 3rd inning, but an error in the 8th gives you the winner! Congrats. :thumbs:
