The Phillies stick out to me. At home, with the better pitcher, and you're getting +120. Public fading the fighting Phils. Both 8-10 in their respective home/away positions.

The Twins really sticks out to me. I know they have the worse pitcher, but their lineup has been on fire recently and Detroit's has been kind of flat.

The Cubs might be a good play. The Mets can't hit, and the Cubs are better against lefty's. I'm also leaning towards either the Cards or Cards TT over.

Cards and Kansas. In My opinion, can't see the top 2 teams loosing back to back on a series with an bottom place team. Yesterday most underdogs and the under where the wins..

STL- I like wacha and the cards here to take 2 out of 3 from these indians better pitcher solid lineup and not scoring any runs tonight they bounce back and get it done


PIT- I like the pirates here they are 8-2 vs a team with a losing record 4-0 as a road favorite and i also lean to the over in the total 7.5 to 8

DET- I like the tigers tomor sanchez is 3-3 with a 2.51 era and whip of 1.175 13-4 when playing in day games 5-1 as a home fav 150 to 175

KC- Look for the royals to bounce back here tomor pretty solid in day starts guthrie is 5-4 with a 3.41 era with a whip of 1.276 detweiller has pitched somewhat better but i believe he struggles at home in this day game

NYM- I do like the mets to bounce back here cubs may win the series but just dont really see them getting swept neise has been pretty solid in his starts im just not sold on wood he does pitch good at home but what woods shows up tomor the mets are 8-1 in day starts as the cubs are 5-8 in day starts mets are 3-4 when facing a LH starter as the mets are 2- vs LH starter

Yea Phillies and cards is where I lean most right mow

 

Line movement of cards from -115 to -120 happening

 

Lean under 8.5 twins det bats to quiet to do major damage off palfrey and anibal is anibal

lean rangers/royals over 9.5 +100...conditions perfect for it....rangers starting to mash and royals should get to detwiler relatively easy.

 

Also lean cubs too for reasons stated above. watch both of last two cubs/mets games and Mets hitting may be the worst in the majors right now

Y'all can expect Bauer to improve like Kluber did.  Indians are due to hit a winning streak. 

Phillies twins and royals are the early teams that have good value

Bauer has pitched really poor in his last 3 starts.
And the Indians as a team don't scare me offensively.
Wacha on the other hand has pitched real well the entire season.
The only play here is the cardinals.

Why are they "due"?
Can't they just be a shitty tram having a shitty year.
And expecting Bauer to improve is taking a leap of faith.
He has no real track record of consistency.
Kluber was a Cy young award winner.
We know what to expect from him.

Good number D4

I understand the bounceback suggestion on the Mets but yesterday was the game they should have won in the series and they made Hammel look like Kershaw. No one is really hitting the ball well and I look for Cubs to get the sweep. Wood horrible in last two away starts but wrigley is where he feasts. Good numbers vs Mets historically too. 2-1 2.97 ERA holding them to .205 avg last 3 years. Cant trust Niese on the road in this spot. think he gets his bell rung a little.

After looking more things over the side winners appear to be

 

Cardinals -120

Phillies +115

Royals -125 (hate that they haven't seen Detwiler before though. Texas seen tons of Guthrie but Guthrie has good numbers off them. This is making me hesitant on that over)

Twins +145 or Tigers -160? Have gut feeling Anibal outshines Pelfrey here that's why I may elect to the under instead

Cubs -130

Mets have only scored 5 rune the entire series! They don't have far better numbers than anyone right now

Most definitely St. Louis is my favorite play for all the reasons others have already stated.
