Beckett likes to get off to slow starts, pitch himself into trouble and is showing signs that he has to be on the decline. Lincecum is dealing with his struggles as well. Hoping for some crooked numbers.
BOS Red Sox +105
Buchholz has looked good in the spring, solid from stretch now. Looks stronger, another Boston starter that could have a bounce back year. I like this against a Yankee lineup that can't hit with RISP lately. Edge to Boston's lineup and bullpen. They can actually get it done now. I like it as slight dog.
ATL Braves -1.5 +165
This is partly a Halladay fade to start the season. Doc's been leaving balls up in the zone, 88-91 velocity. The guy is a warrior and I expect he heats up a some point, but I am anticipating he makes a few mistakes tonight. Edge to Braves' lineup and bullpen, as well as a strong lefty against a Phillies lineup that can struggle against lefties. I will play the run line for value.

Nationals seems like it'd be one of those consensus plays..Nats have been covering -1.5 with sub par offense so far and zimmerman is not a step below Gio and Strasburg in my opinion. One of the most underrated pitchers in the league.. barring a gem from Leblanc i see this one hitting.
Mets i just simply believe i have the better team at home with the better pitcher.. not much better team but like the way their playing right now hitting everything padres throw at them, think they carry the momentum through tomorrow an sweep the padres with ease.
as for the under in this game.. i liked the way Guthrie ended last season.. really turned it around.. also these 2 pitchers have outstanding lifetime #'s vs the opposition..
Guthrie: 97ip 4-5 3.24 ERA vs Whitesox lifetime BUT
last 30.2ip vs Whitesox Guthrie has given up 1 ER 21k's dating back to 2011.. that's domination!
floyd: 101ip 5-8 4.10 ERA lifetime vs the royals BUT
last 36.1ip vs the royals floyd has given up 11er 28k's in process.. roughly 3.25 era in that span.. respectable..
if both pitches pitch to their recent trends vs these teams that were mostly the same as last season.. then the under 8.5 should be good.
hope that helped someone! good luck to all!

Dillon Gee has has pitched very well vs SD in the past, 2-0 with a 1.32 ERA, Stults has pitched well in the past vs. the mets but he doesn't excell during the day.
CHI Cubs ML +134
Although wood went 1-2 vs. the pirates last season he sported a 2.70 ERA with 20 K's in just under 17 innings and his only start at PNC park he didn't give up any runs.Mcdonald Had trouble vs. the cubs last season and in his careeer as would indicate his 0-3 record and 5.71 ERA.

Fading Myers who hasn't looked strong at all making transition back to rotation. Edge to the matchup for the lefty Buehrle against the tribe. I will take the run line for value.
BOS Red Sox ML +105
Dempster has not had success in the past vs Yankees. But this isn't the same yankee lineup as the past. Dempster finished a strong spring. Yankees counter with Pettitte and are hoping he can log some innings as their pen has already been overworked in the past 2 games. Edge to Boston's more balanced lineup and stronger bullpen. I will take them as a slight dog again.
BAL Orioles ML +110
Both lineups are hitting the ball right now, and both bullpens look shaky. Edge to Miguel Gonzalez, coming off a very nice spring. I like Baltimore here as a slight dog. Their lineup is going to be able to hit Hernandez and the bullpen should pitch better after letting last game slip away.

As both starting pitchers have fared well vs. the opposing team I see that the Padre lineup is filled with lefties today. Should be the edge I need. We'll find out soon enough.
WAS Nationals -1.5 -105
I'm not counting on another shutout here...but it's possible as the marlins just don't have much talent left by MLB standards. Looking for 5+ from WAS today. That should be enough. We'll see. GL all!

If I can add one to the two I previously posted? I won't make a habit of this. Thanks SportsMavin. Final card with my add on top.

PHI Phillies ML +110
The Phils have been jumped on early in each of the first two in the series. With southpaw stud Cliff Lee on the mound tonight he should help neutralize lefties Heyward and Freeman. These two have come out the gates swinging. I thought about a play on the first five innings but so far the phillies look to have the edge in the bullpen. So I'll take the full game just in case I need a comeback.

I joined Covers' community because of you SportsMavin. All the props for your hard work. I'm not sure I'd put so much effort and spend so much time trying to help total strangers to better themselves in anything in general and in sports handicapping in particular. You're very good with your words and have an Ivy League style of expression which is very impressive. Especially your demeanor and sharp reaction to not so positive remarks and trolling.
It took me time to understand the genius behind the madness. Most impressed I am with your trading skills as that is a sphere I consider myself an expert of. Your record

speaks for itself and I have no doubt we're in for more action and the thrill in the future to come.
However - since I think I'm at least as good as you are in that field and because I can see how low is an attendance at the Investments forum on Covers - I decided to address the issue I'd like to here. I want to prove that I'm better than you in trading binary options and willing to go the extra mile in order to prove that. I\m thinking challenging you with all the respect which is absolutely due in regard to you and the personality you're portrayed here. What do you think about that Dear Sir?
