    Tuesday

    A 3-1 last night to erase the negatives of May, now it's time to get on the positive side. Although I am very disappointed that Kyle Davies didn't hang around long enough to get shelled last night as I was planning to go back to the well on the Mazzaro over today. Amazing those two bums threw gems against NY, you knew it couldn't last.



    Houston/Atlanta over 7 -120 3 Units

    I don't think either pitcher pitches well here and both teams do a good job of scoring runs without the use of the HR. That should help the total in Atlanta where it is a little more difficult than average to hit HR's. I don't expect Lowe to shut them down and Atlanta has been grinding out atleast 2-3 runs in each game. I don't see any reason each team can't put 3 on the board if the pitchers pitch well. But I think one of them gives up 5 or more runs in the first 5 innings. Wandy has been over the 110 pitch number in 5 straight starts and Lowe has been very inconsistent. Houston also hits Lowe well (Bourn, Lee, Pence and Downs) and that is the portion of the order that generates most of their runs. Also not the most popular play on the board.

    SF/Col Under 8' 3 Units

    I don't think this line move is warranted although Ubaldo has been bad at times. We have two offenses who have struggled mightily especially against pitchers from these sides (RH, LH). Ubaldo and Sanchez both have outstanding numbers against their opponent (especially post humidor) and neither has been stressed in their most recent outing. Also, there is weather in the area today and hopefully it won't be an issue with the starters depth in the game but the winds are forecast to be blowing in during the game.

    Also, I'd like to point out how unfortunate Lackey going on the DL was. Before he was injured Boston was going to open at -125 which would have been unbelievable value on Britton for the first 5 against Boston. Now we have Wakefield subbing and the wind blowing in hard and somehow Baltimore is favored? I like them but this really shouldn't be how they break their consecutive games of being a dog to Boston. If Boston is favored with Lackey on the hill they should be favored with any warm body, even if it was Kyle Davies or Barry Enright.

      Well Lowe is clearly dealing today. And the generous strike zone is only helping him and Wandy just pound the zone.

      Toronto +135 3 Units

      Baltimore first 5 -110 2 Units
      Still worth a play just not loading up on it. Plus value was incredible in this matchup. But I don't see the Baltimore pen holding a lead, similar to last night.

      Cleveland/KC over 9 even 3 Units
      I trust Carrasco to give up 3 runs and I trust KC to give up atleast 6. KC should have some fight and the Cleveland hitters are obviously seeing the ball well. I liked this before last night got out of hand.

      Cubs/Reds over 7' -120 4 Units
      I think this is a bad line. By all forecasts I can see the wind will be blowing out although it may be raining. Garza's flyballs will carry out and Volquez has left too many guys on base. One mistake will be multiple runs not a solo blast. Garza pitching much better than Volquez who appears on the verge of 6 or 7 run outing.

      Cubs +115 2 Units
