Astros(-117)… Right now the Brewers and Astros are nearly dead even hitting vs RHP (Astros 24 for 95 & Brewers 18 for 70). The big difference though is the Brewers only have 1hr vs RHP with 4rbi’s so far while the Astros have 6hr’s and 15rbi’s vs RHP. A lack of power looms right now in the Brewers lineup and they may even end up worse than last years 145hr’s as a team which was ranked just 21 in MLB…
Mariners(-145)… The A’s have started the season so far with just 5 hits in 50 plate appearances vs RHP. That’s a league low ba of .100. Sounds about right… Meanwhile the Mariners are hitting .282 as a team with 9hr’s in just 3 games. Taijuan Walker the former 1st round draft pick for the Mariners has excellent stuff and IMO stands a strong chance at some redemption vs the A’s who he struggled vs last season…

Marlins 1st 5inn RL +0.5(-120)… I really wish I was on this game when you could have snagged the Fish at +140. That full game action is now down to just +110. But I believe their is still some value left in this game. And it’s in the 1st 5inn RL +0.5 as I only need to lay 35 cents on the dollar to put that half run in my back pocket. And I’m doing so by backing Adam Conley who is the Marlins best prospect in the rotation right now. He is a left handed young arm who throws low to mid 90’s consistency with good sink action as well. Not many hitters in this league have got extended looks at him just yet and that’s exactly why I’m valuing him early on…
A’s 1st 5inn (-120)… This is Mat Latos’s 5th team in just 3 years as teams just see no reason to keep him around after getting any type of extended look at him. A once top prospect who is making a living based on trying to recover from arm surgery about 5 years ago now. The he was with the Padres he threw 95+ mph since 2011 his fastball has declined each year and he now throws barely touching 90 consistently. Ventura and Latos were quoted as both being happy after his last spring start… "This is the best he's pitched this spring," said Ventura of Latos, who gave up three runs on five hits, while walking three and striking out three. "The biggest thing is he's getting ahead early, keeping it down. Before, he was leaving stuff up in the zone that was getting hit hard. If he's keeping it down and utilizing that curveball, he becomes tougher."
If you ask me that’s a lot of “IF’s” and getting excited about giving up 3 runs in while walking 3 on 5hits in a minimal exposure spring game is not too promising. Especially seeing he got torched for 23hits in just 13 innings this spring as hitters hit .404 off him. His whip was a awful 2.23 and in my book if this man is going to put 2+ baserunners on per inning it doesn’t look to good for him… And I didn’t even mention the A’s putting 7 lefties in the lineup today to go against that right arm of Latos. I’ll play the numbers here and roll with the A’s at home for sure…
Orioles(-131)… Fading fly ball pitcher Phil Hughes at HR friendly park in Baltimore. 5 out of 6 experts have the Twins picked to finish in last place in AL Central as their lineup is super weak…
