Sale?

Fellas,

Are we trusting Sale today? I really want them to win.. But, I don't know if I can trust him. I always play +/-   but not today. If you talk to me on here or at the pub you know I never bet against Urias. He failed on his last outting but I can forgive and forget that.(we will talk about that game later tho) What I can't forget is Sale and his very large ERA... We've all witnessed his downfalls so are we trusting him today? 2 hours to go until first pitch so let's get this conversation rollin

Tuff spot. If it was regular season the price tag would of been sale-250 or higher lol Sale just haven’t been clutch in the playoffs. I believe the pressure is real for him today. GL on whatever you go with.

I cannot forgive or forget how atrocious he has looked but the kicker for me is Hou beats up on Lefties and one who is not in his best form is not a recipe for success.

 Thanks for posting. I looked at mlb probable pitchers and checked stats. The only reason why I have a slight lean towards Boston is because of the amount of games Sale has been in. Houston has Valdez on the mound he's career 67 games. Sale is in the triple digits... I gotta lean towards experience, right?

 I think Sale has a better performance at home than his start in Houston.

I took the Sox -1.5 I don't think those hot bats are going to stay quiet for a second game.

Good luck

@wildwelder303

 On Astros but I’m in the zig zag game now, every time I wager this series, besides game 1, the other team has won. Going Astro’s today

@Skog

 That is something I need to look at, good call

I hate fading the Astros against a lefty, but take a look at Houston's bullpen usage. 

Javier - 57 pitches G4

Raley - 27 pitches G3, 16 G4

Yimi Garcia - 30 pitches G3

Graveman - 30 pitches G4

Maton - 12 pitches G3, 13 G4

Pressly - 22 pitches G4

Taylor and Stanek both pitched Monday but should be available.

Who is the long guy if Valdez can't get them 4+ innings? Luis Garcia or Odorizzi, but one of them has to start Game 6. 

Red Sox have Houck to back up Sale w/ Robles, Ottavino and Brasier on good rest.

@wildwelder303

 Yessir makes a lot of sense to me. I lean Boston first half and game. I think sale comes out and have a great game today despite all the talk about him getting rocked on the road. And I see the public is pounding Boston

@xMORTICIANx

 I've been in the zig zag as well at times. I don't dislike Houston at all Altuves tiny self is my dude! Houston can hit, score, and play great defense. But that pitching last night was terrible.

@bee28s

 Well.. after further investigation and trying to take my emotions out of it. Fellas ... I'm going Boston ML. Straight up. Either way both of these teams can and will beat the braves if they make it in. But it LA makes it (which I truly hope they do) LA will win. Imo
