My
model has this one at 9.8 total runs and 7 would be needed for this
wager to lose. Reds are the 4th best hitting team against lefties this
year so I expect them to have success off Wandy who has been giving up
3/4 ER's in his last 5 starts. Arroyo has allowed 10 HR's in his last 4
starts and 44 on the season. Even the Houston bats should have some
success off him. Arroyo is coming off a 114 pitch outing and I expect
him to give up some runs in this one as well. Both BP's are below
average.
#2: Chicago Cubs +100
This
is Cubs' last HOME game of the season. Sure the season was a total
disaster but you have to believe that they'll have their best lineup on
the field in this one with their best pitcher on the mound. Brewers
don't have much to play for, so they might rest a starter or two.
Either way, I expect the Cubs to field a strong lineup in order to win
their last home game of the season. Garza is a much better pitcher than
Wolf according to advanced stats and Chicago hits lefties pretty well.
Definitely some 'value' with the home team here.
This is it for the early games. I'm capping late games right now and will most likely have a play or two there as well. Back in a bit!
Good luck!
