2 plays on today's card

6/29/2014 4:10 PM MLB Baseball 924 Seattle Mariners* -½ -125  vs Cleveland Indians for 1st 5 Innings
T House - L Listed   F Hernandez - R Listed
Risking 1.50 To Win 1.20

6/29/2014 4:10 PM Reduced Baseball 924 Seattle Mariners* -1½ +130  vs Cleveland Indians
T House - L Listed   F Hernandez - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 1.30

I am backing Hernandez again here. He has been pronominal. Mariners are coming off a game where they were shut out against Cleveland, I expect them to rebound and come back with a strong home game today with their Ace on the mound. Hernandez is virtually unhittable through his 1st 5 innings this year. His only 2 losses have been 1-0 and 2-1 loss. In his last 10 games they have gone 8-2 and covered the run line in every single win. I like Seattle for a big play here tonight.

6/29/2014 4:05 PM MLB Baseball 908 San Francisco Giants* -120  vs Cincinnati Reds
H Bailey - R Listed   T Hudson - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 0.83

This hasn't been a good series for the Giant's, they looked like they were going to get their first win last night. Tim Hudson has been the teams most winning pitcher this year as Giants have gone 10-4 behind him when he starts. They are also looking to avoid being swept in this series at home. The stats all say to make this a strong play but I am only going with 1 unit due to the recent struggles the giants have had at the plate. I do like them to salvage one win in this series.

I have several plays on today's card as we have lots of games on the schedule and several plays that make the cut.

6/28/2014 7:15 PM MLB Baseball 980 New York Yankees* -153  vs Boston Red Sox
J Lester - L Listed   M Tanaka - R Listed
Risking 2.00 To Win 1.31

6/28/2014 7:15 PM Reduced Baseball 980 New York Yankees* -1½ +140  vs Boston Red Sox
J Lester - L Listed   M Tanaka - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 1.40

Tanaka doesn't lose very many games. He is officially 35-2 over the last 2 years in games where he received a decision. With the fact that he lost his last start in mind I am taking him to come out today very focused on pitching an excellent game. Boston is countering with Jon Jester who is 8-7 on the year with an ERA of 3.14. I expect this game to be fairly low scoring with the Yankees taking it 4-1 or so.

6/28/2014 4:10 PM Reduced Baseball 977 Detroit Tigers* -1½ +110  vs Houston Astros
M Scherzer - R Listed   B Oberholtzer - L Listed
Risking 2.00 To Win 2.20

This is a high quality road run line system play. The Tigers have been playing great baseball lately and blowing teams out regularly. Scherzer is 9-3 on the year with a 3.71 ERA. The team is 11-5 behind him when he starts. They have covered the run line in 8 of the 11 wins when he started. Houston has been getting blown out frequently and has a losing home record at 19-22. Houston is 2-7 behind Oberholtzer as a starter, he has a 4.76 ERA and has lost by 2 or more in 5 of the 7 losses. Make a 2 unit play on Detroit on the run line today.

6/28/2014 4:05 PM Reduced Baseball 973 Minnesota Twins/Texas Rangers* Under 7½ -105
P Hughes - R Listed   Y Darvish - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 0.95

I am going with the UNDER in this game as Darvish has been fantastic all year and I expect another strong showing out of him today. The Rangers have struggled at the plate recently and are up against the Twins ace in Hughes. Hughes is 8-3 on the year with an ERA of 3.40. I expect this one to be a pitchers duel and go 7 or less.

We had another solid night winning all of our plays last night

Today i have another 2 games and 3 plays on the card

6/27/2014 7:05 PM Reduced Baseball 919 Tampa Bay Rays/Baltimore Orioles* Under 8½ -115
J Odorizzi - R Listed   C Tillman - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 0.87 (WINNER)

 
Both Odorizzi (ERA 4.29) and Tillman (ERA 4.45) struggled early this season but have looked much better in their last few starts. Odorizzi has only allowed 3 runs in his last 3 starts including a 7 inning outing vs Houston in his last start with no runs allowed. Tillman went 7 innings vs the Yankees in his last outing and didn't allow a run. I like them to continue their recent strong form into this game and keep it to 8 or fewer runs.

6/27/2014 10:10 PM MLB Baseball 910 San Diego Padres* -1 +122  vs Arizona Diamondbacks
B McCarthy - R Listed   T Ross - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 1.22 (loss)

6/27/2014 8:10 PM Reduced Baseball 910 San Diego Padres* -1½ +185  vs Arizona Diamondbacks
B McCarthy - R Listed   T Ross - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 1.85 (loss)

I am going to continue our bets against McCarthy who has been dreadful this year. The D-backs are a MLB worst 2-14 when he starts. They have lost by 2 or more in all of his last 5 starts and in 12 of those 14 losses. The Padres haven't exactly been putting up runs like crazy but looked very solid in their last outing vs a red hot Giants team. They were able to score 6 runs and 7 runs in their first 2 games before running into the Lincecum no hitter. We are getting fantastic value at +175 on the run line here.

Note I am making a 1 unit play on the run line and a 1 unit play on the -1 line (this will push if they win by just 1)

FYI I am back home in Toronto now and will be much faster at responding to any questions

6/26/2014 10:10 PM Reduced Baseball 959 St. Louis Cardinals/Los Angeles Dodgers* Under 6½ -105
A Wainwright - R Listed   J Beckett - R Listed
Risking 1.50 To Win 1.43 WINNER


I like this one to be another pitchers duel. So if you are into seeing lots of ground outs this should be a treat. Both Wainwright and Beckett have solid ERAs and records this year, so the play here is the under. I like this to be a 2-1 or 3-1 type game.

6/26/2014 8:05 PM Reduced Baseball 967 Detroit Tigers* -132  vs Texas Rangers
R Porcello - R Listed   N Martinez - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 0.76 WINNER

6/26/2014 8:05 PM Reduced Baseball 967 Detroit Tigers* -1½ +115  vs Texas Rangers
R Porcello - R Listed   N Martinez - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 1.15 WINNER

I am coming right back again today with Detroit. We got a nice win with them yesterday as they held on to cover the run line in an 8-6 game. Today they are starting Porcello has been one of their best pitchers this year. I am going to stick with the hot team and ride the win streak

We split out plays for a slight profit yesterday.

I have 2 plays on today's card.
6/24/2014 10:15 PM Reduced Baseball 959 San Diego Padres/San Francisco Giants* Under 7 -110
J Hahn - R Listed   T Hudson - R Listed
Risking 1.50 To Win 1.36 (WINNER)

I like this one to be a pitcher's duel. Jesse Hahn comes into this game with an ERA of 2.16, he has allowed only 1 run in his last 13 innings pitched over 2 games. Tim Hudson struggled in his last outing vs the White Sox but I like him to rebound strong today. He has 7 inning shut outs on the year and the team is 10-3 behind him as a starter. I like Hudson and the Giants to get the win today but I think the under provides a better bet here as the -150 line doesn't give us much value in a low scoring game.

6/24/2014 7:05 PM MLB Baseball 962 Toronto Blue Jays* -1½ +145  vs New York Yankees
D Phelps - R Listed   M Buehrle - L Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 1.45 (loss)

I am backing the Jays at home here. Buehrle and the Jays have been a Jays have been a solid run line play this year as every single one of his 11 wins have covered the run line. I will admit that he struggled his last 3 outings but I like him to bounce back strong at home today. Phelps has been very average all year, so I like the Jays to put up some runs today.

FYI i am traveling again today so the picks tomorrow may be a bit early or late depending on when I can get a Wifi connection to do my research and send them out.

2 games and 3 plays on today's card

6/25/2014 8:05 PM MLB Baseball 915 Detroit Tigers* -145  vs Texas Rangers
A Sanchez - R Listed   J Saunders - L Listed
Risking 1.50 To Win 1.03 WINNER

6/25/2014 8:05 PM Reduced Baseball 915 Detroit Tigers* -1½ +125  vs Texas Rangers
A Sanchez - R Listed   J Saunders - L Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 1.25 WINNER

This is a road run line system play. We are getting a better team with a better record with a better starting pitcher, and a batting lineup that scores runs. Make a play on Tigers on both the ML and the Run Line.

6/25/2014 9:40 PM MLB Baseball 929 Cleveland Indians/Arizona Diamondbacks* Under 8 +100
C Kluber - R Listed   C Anderson - R Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 1.00 WINNER

Cleveland has struggled on the road this year going only 14-25 and Arizona has struggled at home. Both teams are starting strong pitchers, and we are getting a good over under number at 8 at even money here.

Here is my 2nd play for today.
6/23/2014 7:05 PM Reduced Baseball 913 Chicago White Sox/Baltimore Orioles* Under 7½ -110
C Sale - L Listed   W Chen - L Listed
Risking 1.00 To Win 0.91 (loss)

I am going with the under in this game. Both Sale and Chen have pitched very well in their last few games and the defense has played solid. Baltimore is coming off a shutout vs the Yannkees. Chen has allowed 3 or less runs in each of his last 4 starts including a shutout vs Boston. Chris Sale has been as solid as ever this year with an ERA of 2.2 and he pitched a complete game a few weeks ago vs San Diego. Make a 1 unit play on under 7.5 runs.

Already sent out - NOTE This line has moved to -145 or so now... so hope you were able to jump on it while it was up.

6/23/2014 10:10 PM MLB Baseball 916 Seattle Mariners* +105  vs Boston Red Sox for 1st 5 Innings
J Lackey - R Listed   F Hernandez - R Listed
Risking 1.50 To Win 1.58 (WINNER)

Felix Hernandez has been deadly in his latest outings. He is 5-1 with an era of 1.78. Seattle actually lost his last 2 starts, but it wasn't his fault (1-2 loss and 0-1 loss) and he did not allow a run in the first 5 innings of either game.  I really don't understand why we are getting plus money on the 1st 5 innings while the ML for the game is -150. I am guessing this won't last long so lock it in now
