I thought you meant you liked Cleveland as a side.
You just riding the hot hand with the Tigers? Anibal's inconsistency still scares me, and Zimm is becoming elite. Not sure what to think there personally.

overall, i think Zimm only has a slight advantage over Anibal. IMO Tigers hitting is better enough than Washington's (as well as recent performance) that as a dog/pick, there is some value. side note --- Taking out anibal's first 4 games with Detroit, he has a 2.10 ERA over 94 innings. I liked him a lot last year and outside of those same 4 games, he did nothing but produce all year (3.3 ERA). I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say after 7 years in Miami, it took a month to get acclimated with a new team/location. Looking into his splits, I don't see anything that stands out as him being worse out of the stretch v. the windup, so he shouldn't produce worse w/ RISP. You definitely watch more of Anibal than I do, but I just don't see much in the way of anything that would cause him to be inconsistent.

Well, inconsistent is a relative term here, I guess, compared to the stuff that he has. He's always had the makeup of an elite pitcher, but sometimes, tends to drift. He's not inconsistent as a 3 or 4 starter, but if he's going to win 15 (which he should), he needs to take the next step mentally in bearing down and zoning in. Tonight will be a good challenge for him.

As a team, the Nats’ 83 wRC+ is 27th overall, and over the past 14 days they have sunk even further, to a 61 wRC+ that is dead last in the game.

Washington's TTu3.5 is -125.... I would love to play that, but Detroit's bullpen is good for a run or three in 2 innings. Would be cutting it close IMO at those odds.

Their bullpen is really disappointing. You'd think a team that wants to be a serious WS contender with Dombrowski in charge would realize how important it is to not only have a decent closer, but long relief and setup guys. Benoit is OK and Smyly's filled his role nicely, but there are a lot of holes. Can't believe they've basically ignored such an important aspect of the game.

What do you guys think of the SEA/PIT under 8? Too much juice?

Pitcher #'s point to an over, hitters #'s go under. Too much guesswork at who's ineptitude will shine through for me to make a play here. I reserve the right to change my mind once an ump is announced, though. An under ump could help harang nibble and call strikes when Mcdonald misses the target by 6 inches, an over ump could make harang pitch to contact and mcdonald ends up walking the world. Too much variance with these SP's to make a play w/o all information

Gomez in McDonald out. Much better price for PIT backers.

I never know how to play games in coors with pitchers who have never thrown there before. I didn't even bother looking at that game because of it.
I get Internet hooked up tomorrow, so I'll be more active for night games tomorrow.

I also, unofficially, am leaning on the Yankees and the Athletics as two other plays.

Step up your game, Cardinals. You're getting beat by Travis Wood and the Cubs.

I can't figure out what's been so perplexing about Wood this year. I've watched him pitch a few times and nothing seems to be different than in the past.
BTW, nice call on that OAK/CLE under. You are the anti-me when it comes to totals -- LOL.

It's gotta be that nasty beard. Villanueva and wood may be on to something

Thanks man. I'm hitting something like 65% on plays >1u this year. That'll come down a bit, but should hover around 60% if things stay similar to the last few years.

5/8 Tor +173 ~ 1u --- Jays bats are hot and TB's pen is in shambles. Moore usually doesn't go deep into games, so another day against Gomes/Rodney/Wright should give the jays a chance. -- Probably adding Jays TTo3 or 3.5 as well.

Leans - Mia, Det FF, maybe Chw if line moves closer to a pick, Cin @ Atl o8.5, Bal @ KC u9, Oak @ Cle u8.5, Stl @ Chc o8, Phi @ Sf u8, TB @ Tor o7.5
Probably going to wait for lineups to book any of these leans

Adding: Det FF -106 ~ 3u ---- ML opened at -119 for detroit and is now down to -106, but I'm guessing washington is the more "public" team. Wish they played the game yesterday, but I don't see any reason Detroit doesn't win FF
I might take a nibble on the Cubs TT over 3.5. Just wish I could get a -110 or -115.

Adding phi FF +0.5 -110 ~ 1u
Pettibone is a pretty decent MiLB pitcher with good control. Phillies lineup looks pretty good today against lefties and no posey for SF. Worth a play since I was leaning under to begin with

I would love to tail you on this, because I enjoy fading Zito and SF's lineup doesn't look all that great. I just don't have enough of a read on Pettibone. Good luck, Ex.

Probably a good idea. I think I'm confusing a lean for some mid afternoon action. Betting 4 afternoon games can't possibly turn out profitable
