Has not been a good run of late. I turn this around starting tonight. Write-ups are for 3 of the 6 plays for tonight including 2 big ones. 10 unit plays have gone 5-6 last 11 so look for a nice run to brew very soon.
I will update all statistics with tomorrows plays. Sunday there was a -24+ unit loss.
JUNE 16th
$1000 LA Dodgers -145
Oakland comes into this one just 1-7 in their last 8 interleague games. They have lost 5 of 6, and have to face a great starter in Kershaw tonight. Kershaw should go pretty deep in this one and allow just 1-2 runs. That is all in fact I see Oakland getting tonight as the Dodgers should be able to put up 5+ in this one. Dodgers have not given Kershaw much run support over his last few starts for them so look for a nice padding for the home starter tonight.
$1000 NY Yankees -360
It is a steep one but these favorites are 19-2 with this angle over the last 3+ seasons laying -200+ in a game. The runline may be better suited, especially the way things are going but stats are based on SU moneylines. Sabathia shut out Washington just last season and considering the Yanks bats have been hot recently, I just can not see the Nats putting up more in this contest. Remember, as I recently pointed out the Nats are horrendous in opening series games. They currently stand at 4-17 on the season and just 1-9 in game 1 road series. Martis will go for the Nats today, and opponents have averaged roughly 7 runs in his outings, mostly in part of the bullpen woes in Washington. Yanks should get at least 7 in this one unless they decide to play down to this league worst club.
$200 Arizona/KC Over 8.5
Look for at least a possible dozen tonight as I see both of these starters struggling. Davis will face Meche. Doug Davis shut out KC last season so look for a bit of revenge by the Royals tonight. Royals are also starting to get hot after falling out of the division race. They come in after a sweep of the Reds. Zona has allowed 7 runs in the last 4 Davis road starts that he wasnt accounted for. That leaves a weak bullpen for the Royals hungry offense. KC should be able to put up 5 or more here, and looking at Meche, he steadily gives up 3 or more on average at home. Meche has struggled at times to go deep in ballgames which led to opponents having a field day scoring. Opponents have averaged 8 runs per Meche start over his last 5 home outings. Take the over, should get it easily.
$500 Colorado -115
$500 Atlanta -125
$500 San Diego +125 |
