Another losing day.

Toronto Blue Jays +110

New York Mets +100

Astros/Cardinals Over 8 -105

Cubs/Padres Over 7.5 -115

GL

1-1 yesterday.  

Nationals/Pirates Over 8.5

With these two bullpens, and the wind blowing out all night long at about 20 mph, we could be in for some fireworks in Pittsburgh.

Philadelphia Phillies -1.5 +136

Luzardo has been outstanding so far this year, and Verlander has looked old.  Giants haven't hit lefties well, and the Philly bats are due to for an outburst.

Guardians/Orioles Over 9 -102

Charlie Morton is very hittable, and Cleveland platted 15 guys over the weekend against much better pitching.  O's offense has yet to do what many expected it to, but they are still showing signs that the ability is there, it just needs to click. 

Royals/Yankees Over 8.5 -105

Bye bye baseballs, as the winds are gonna be blowing straight to center all evening long in the upper teens.  As if baseballs needed much more help getting out of that yard. 

Mets/Twins Under 8 -112

Megill has been tremendous and Ober has really come around since his first start when he got beat up.  Neither offense has shown a whole lot, especially when facing a top of the rotation arm.

St. Louis Cardinals +110

Redbird bats are continuing to impress, and its back to Whitey ball.  Not so much the long ball, but put the ball in play, use your speed, and generate runs.  They've gotten Zach Wheeler and Framber Valdez in back to back days.  They keep it rolling tonight in optimal baseball weather. 

GL Everyone

Went on a golf trip with the fellas, and now I'm back with more losers!!

Toronto Blue Jays -105

Finally getting back home has to feel good, and the Braves can't hit shit, especially if its coming from the left side.

Cubs/Padres Over 7.5 +100

The Padres pitching staff didn't give up a run against Colorado over the weekend, so I'd imagine that lucky streak comes to an end, and the Cubs bats just outscored the Dodgers 20-5 over the weekend.  Taillon isn't good, so I expect the Friars to get their fair share, as long as the Cubbies can get me to 3. 

GL everyone

If I can just get hot, I can win this baby!!  2-5-1 yesterday.  I hope someone, somewhere is making money off this bozo. 

Chicago White Sox +205

Trying to avoid the sweep after losing back to back 1-run games.  Cannon has looked above average, and is getting ground balls. I'm not sure where the offense comes from, but at that price, and the situation, it's worth a dart. 

Twins/Royals Over 8.5 -105

Wind will be blowing out to right all day, 70 degrees, perfect baseball weather.  Two starters that don't move the needle for me at all. Twins bats scare me a little bit, and the Royals aren't up to par just yet either, but todays a good day for that to change. 

Philadelphia Phillies +105

Pitchers are a wash for me with how poorly Atlanta is hitting in general, and against lefties especially.  Schwallenbach has been excellent, but I think the heavy bats in the Philly line up that have seen him before, will find enough success.

GL everyone

Washington Nationals +1.5 -105

Astros/Mariners Under 7.5 -120

Tampa Bay Rays -1.5 +145

Philadelphia Phillies +120

Brewers/Rockies Under 10.5 -105

GL everyone

0-4 yesterday.  It's been a hell of a week.

Cardinals/Pirates Over 7.5 -115

Went against my gut yesterday due to the pitching match up, and got burned.  Not today.  Back to old trustee.  Over in Cardinals games.

Padres/A's Over 10 -112

The over has hit in every game played at this park this year, and all but one have gone over 10.  A pretty nice trend, coupled with pitchers who have shown to have some control issues early on, leads to a lot of opportunities for crooked number innings. 

Orioles/D'Backs Over 9 -112

Neither starter has been any better than average so far, and both offenses can smash.  Jumping the gun a little on the line ups, but seeing its the rubber game, I'd think we see regular line ups. 

I wanna see who Roberts has in the line up today as the Dodgers try to avoid a sweep before committing to anything in that game.  Be back before it.  Fading seems to be a money maker right now.

2-3 yesterday. On the golf course so no write ups.

Cardinals/Pirates Under 6.5 -108

Boston Red Sox -1.5 +105

Philadelphia Phillies -105

Orioles/D’Backs Over 9.5 -112

Good luck everyone 

@oldshakey

 Thanks shakes, you too

@IAMTEDDYKGB

 I just joined a wood bat league here in St Louis, it’s not gonna be pretty! Good luck sir!

I like the Nats play Colonel!! GL

Cardinals/Pirates Over 8 -115

The over is 7-1 in Cardinals games this year, partly in thanks to an overachieving line up, and partly to a terrible starting pitching staff.  An average of 13 runs is scored a game in which the Cardinals play this year.  The Pirates average 8.5.  Some rain in the area at start time, so may get delayed, but they should play.

Dodgers/Nationals Under 8 -118

Gore has been great so far this year, and seems to be turning into what he was supposed to be, and that's a legit #1.  He has a 9:1 K/BB, and while winless, he can thank his bullpen for that.  Dodgers aren't hitting lefties yet this year either. May was also great in his first shot at things in almost two years.  We could also see the game get delayed/called in the later innings with a big rainstorm that could potentially reach DC.  The less the Nats pen gets involved, the better.

San Francisco Giants -1.5 +150

Giants are the hottest team in baseball right now, winners of 8 straight, and the only team to beat them this year, was this very Reds ballclub last week.  These two pitchers faced off on opening day and the Giants won 6-4.  Back at home in the Bay, I like Webb over Greene who hasn't pitched away from home yet this year.  Giants bullpen is much better too, and third in the league in holds.

Padres/A's Over 8.5 -102

This Padre line up in this ballpark should be fun to watch.  I have full confidence that SD can get at least 6, and Sacramento (?????) is actually got above average offensive numbers, mostly due to them playing in this ballpark.  I'm gonna play overs at this place anytime its under 10, with exceptions along the way.

GL everyone.  Get those bats goin Yanks!

@D-Town

@IAMTEDDYKGB

 No doubt about it.  And you're right about the weather in Detroit.  I think the cold effects pitchers though too when it comes to being able to feel their pitches, so control could be an issue.  So far, looks like a shitty bet though. 

@Coloneljim

 You too Colonel!

@bonfire69

@AtlantaGambler

@vankiep_0007

  you too!

@Fuse

And the first "kick to the dick" Sunday has now come and gone.  I won't be playing a lot of Sunday baseball from here on out.  It just seems too unpredictable for some reason. 0-5 yesterday.

Yankees/Tigers Over 8.5 -110

I can't wait for line ups on this one cause it's already gone up a run since opening at 7.5, and with winds expected to be sustained around 20mph and head straight out to center/left center, I don't want to have to settle for a 9/9.5 come game time. 

4-3 yesterday. 

New York Yankees -1.5 -105

Just gotta continue betting the hot bats.  Especially against a lefty, on a bad team.  Yanks are batting .327 with an OBP of .418 vs lefties this year so far. 

Chicago White Sox +160

Taking a shot here with the Pale Hose as they look to avoid the sweep, and throw the veteran lefty Martin Perez who struck out 9 Twins over 6 IP in his last start.  Too good of a number for me to pass on.

Baltimore Orioles -110

Royals haven't faired well vs lefties this year, hitting just .154, but its a small sample size.  The O's have the better bats in the lower part of the order, which is going to be the difference for me in this one.  Povich didn't pitch bad in his first start, but definitely has room for improvement. 

Mariners/Giants Under 7.5 -118

Both starters had impressive first starts to the season, and only needed an average of 12 pitches per inning which is extremely efficient.  The Giants lineup is quietly really good, but Woo creates soft contact and doesn't beat himself.  Both bullpens have been up to the task to start the year as well. 

Cardinals/Red Sox Game 2 Under 9 -115

The Sunday Night under bet is usually a winner if memory serves me correctly.  These two are playing two today, and I think that also serves for an under in the second game of a double header.

GL Everyone.  I try to keep Sundays to a low volume.  Weird things happen on Sundays.

I considered it too but could pull the trigger on Quantrill. Good luck though!

Stay hot weebs!!!

Gl Brooklyn!

@Ywin

I think it's totally possible the over gets there, but it will have to be a lot of heavy lifting from the Rangers offense.  I think DeGrom feasts on this weak TB line up.

Texas Rangers -1.5 +125

DeGrom looked like DeGrom in his opener, and that is great news for Rangers fans.  Hopefully he can put a full season together.  There aren't a lot of MLB at bats in the Rays line up and they are still trying guys at new spots.  You can afford to do that against the Colorados and Pittsburghs of the world, but when real talent shows up, it's a different story.

Reds/Brewers Under 8 -105

The Reds offense is putrid at the moment.  They've scored a combined 2 runs in their last 4 games! Lucky for them, Singer looks to be continuing to evolve as a pitcher, and was outstanding in his first start.  He's got crazy good stuff, but he hasn't mastered the mental part of pitching yet.  If he does, watch out.  This will only be Rodriguez' second career start, but with how good the Crews pen is, it doesn't scare me so bad. 

Athletics/Rockies Under 9.5 -120

Going back to this well again, although there won't be snow, it's still not close to baseball weather. Wind will blow in, albeit not strong enough to effect much.  In my opinion we are getting both teams best pitchers tonight too.  When Marquez is on, he gets a LOT of swing and misses.  And Sears is one of those tricky lefties.  Similar game to yesterday I'd imagine, but we can live without the extra innings shenanigans. 

Mariners/Giants Over 7.5 -110

All the Seattle offense needed to get going, was to get out of their home ballpark! Another beautiful San Francisco evening should provide the perfect atmosphere for more fireworks tonight, after these two put 19 up yesterday.  

Good luck tonight everyone

New York Yankees -1.5 -105

As long as the Yanks bats stay this hot, I'm going to make money off it.  The last time they saw a lefty start a game vs them, it was Nestor Cortes and we all know how that went.  The limited offense the Buccos do possess, isn't producing much of anything at the moment, and I'm hoping they don't start producing today!

Baltimore Orioles -102

Rutch gets the day off, so one bat is missing from the Os everyday line up, but Gunnar is back so that helps.  We will see how long it takes him to get acclimated. Sugano pitched very well in his first big league start, but had a short leash, getting pulled after only 73 pitches and 4 IP, but only have up 2 ER on 4 H and 2BB.  So all in all, a great start. Wacha had some control issues vs CLE, and when he did find the zone, he found lots of bats.  Better offense, and better pitcher today.

A couple more tonight as long as no funny business in the line up cards.
