Well it was a rough year last year and I called it a season pretty quickly. Lets hope I turn it around this year like I did with a few other sports.
Reds -114 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes
I think the high expectations for the Brewers will have them starting out slowly trying to press too much. Though it feels like the Reds losing there home opener every year. But the Brewers just won 3 games in 5 series against the Reds last year and they were 1-8 last year @ Cinci.
Giants -104 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes
Lincecum has owned the Dodgers during his career.
Tigers +135 to bet 1 unit @ 5dimes
A lot of value here. Texiera tends to struggle to start the year, as does Arod. It didnt happen with CC last year, but I remember he used to get rocked in the beginning of the season a couple years back with the Indians. Just like the value here with Verlander.
I think Harang could benefit from the Petco stadium grounds. The Giants offense just hasn't been there in the beginning of the season. From what I can see they should continue to struggle
Braves +108 to bet 1 unit @ 5dimes
Wanna keep it rolling with this. Lowe had a great game his first one out, and the Braves dominated the Brewers last year on the road.
Just like I said about the Giants, its clear the Dodgers are having some run scoring woes. Billingsley is just 2-8 in his last 10 against the Rockies
Tigers -124 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes
Have a feeling people are too in love with the O's right now. Last time they started 5-0, they won the World Series. Verlander at these odds seems like great value.
Reds dominate the Stros but I think its worth noting that Myers had a great first start against the Phillies giving up just 3 hits in 7 innings. Value is in the Astro's here.
Tampa Bay +102 to bet 1 unit @ 5dimes
Like these odds with Jackson going for the White Sox. The guy is liable with control issues. Price I believe is 0-2 or 0-3 against the White Sox. The Sox are hitting well right now but theyve given up 7+ runs in all but 1 of there games.
Yankees -140 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes
As well all know, Yankees own the Twins. AJ Burnett is 4-0 against them the the last 2 seasons.
Ramirez is out I guess but I still don't see where the Astro's find there offense. I guess Vasquez would be a good way to help them out but he should be better in the NL then he was in the AL
Pirates -110 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes
I think Morton does the complete opposite of what he did last year and how he started. He looks pretty solid against the Cards and the Pirates bullpen shut down this Rockies team last night.
Twins -106 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes
Fading the A's and this offense till they prove me wrong.
Some good odds here. Trouble me a little bit that the Tigers struggled for the most part on offense against the Royals and they made the KC pitchers look lights out. But I think there is a good chance here with Ogando just making his 2nd big league start. A lot of adrenaline your first game out. He only pitched 41 innings last year.
Mets -108 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes
Just watched the Rockies pitching the last few days while they were here in Pittsburgh, they just didnt look that good to me and the Pirates were missing a lot of chances.
Zito is having a tough year (well maybe last few years). But Saunders has been much better. I think Zito is due for a good game and the Giants own the Diamondbacks, winning the last 21 of 28.
Twins +116 to bet 1 unit @ 5dimes
Kind of a hunch here..Neiman has been terrible so far this year and dont see the Rays sweeping.
I wish the odds were a little bit higher, but Romero has been lights out so far this year while Dice - K is very inconsistent. If anyone has the stat, I cant seem to find out, how do the Red Sox usually do on the day of the Boston Marathon on these 11:05 AM starts.
I think this is worth a shot. Marcum is putting up pretty good numbers so far this season but Myers is having a damn good early part of the season as well.
Mets -126 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes
Just have a feeling the Mets start putting it together here.
Garza had a good outing against the Padres last time out giving up 0 Earned Runs. Esmil Rogers is 2-1 but the 2 wins were against the Pirates and the Mets who are both struggling to score. I think Garza finally comes around and gets his first Cubs win.
