I like the Marlins play... I was actually thinking a few more units since its Nolasco but I think your logic, keeping it at 2 is best.
Both teams are horrid but "hot" at this very moment and I think the Marlins coming back home after coming out on top of a few very very long games makes them a little relaxed. I was leaning them bigger but then I started to think about their "home field advantage" and there really isn't one. This is truly a battle for terrible as the brew crew is nothing special, especially on the road, but the Marlins are nothing special, period...
Was also considering the Rangers. I feel like the Indians are really really lost right now. Rangers not exactly playing their best ball and this pitching matchup seems a little scary (for the Rangers) but they are at home, where they play well, and the Indians kinda suck on the road... Thoughts?

Good insight! Thank you... At first glance I really really loved the Marlins but aligning things like what you mentioned makes me feel more and more like it's just a toss up...
This is why I'm glad sometimes that these games don't start till 7pm. Plenty of time to adjust unit sizes or even plays altogether

The Marlins are terrible, but they're getting Giancarlo and LoMo back which is huge when their lineup is as weak as it is.
No play on Texas at -150. That line is just too high for me without much recent performance from their SP.

Okay, somehow I completely missed the Reds/Cubs game tonight. I'm adding it, and also after seeing the line drop on the Rangers I now think it's worth just a bit.
Reds -125 1.0X
Rangers -140 0.5X
Good luck!!!

Well on to the next one...I am sure you will have a few solid ones!

LOL I missed your Rangers play as well, but I had them pegged as a play as soon as my local released that line!
Still a little bit of a rough night...
Like the Marlins today...

I just went back and read this thread since I left and literally laughed out loud again when I saw the videos that jonxpro posted. Thanks again to: jinxpro, ravensfan, retardstrength, swarles, catchn_picks, burkdog, JayLA, Kansas24, r2d2, rented mule, mitch51, the soverign, sbrman23, harhar00, thunderous, tofudog, joco, jontebond, and digbick for keeping this thread alive, the well wishes and the positive energy that flows through this thread through all its ups and downs.
HUGE card today so far. I've only capped the afternoon and east coast games. If I could, I'd take the afternoon off and watch baseball all day. Good luck with everyone's plays!!

Dude, why the Angels? They have been a constant let down, overvalued AND performing poorly. Plus, it's the O's, hon!

I'm sorry about your O's buddy, but I'm pretty sure Jerome Williams is going to dominate this afternoon. He's going to have the struggling Chris Davis and co. beating the ball right into the ground all afternoon off that sinker/cutter combo he's got working. (FTR, I only mean that Davis is struggling, not the rest of the Orioles lineup.)

I'm liking Verlander today, going for 5 W's in a row... His stats against KC are phenomenal, 6-0 in his last 6 and 15-2 in 24 starts against them.
Shields is no slouch but the line feels very very low. 81* and sunny in KC I think the Detroit bats show up and give Verlander the continued support they typically show him (~7 runs).
I'd pegged this line around (140) or even (150) but it's sitting at (120) so to me there is "value." It opened at (135) and it's moving the "wrong" way which scares me a little but I just feel Verlander doesn't take a shit in or around the 5th inning as he's been doing, today...
BOL today Plut and everyone else!

Haha. Fair enough. It doesn't help that the Orioles haven't swept a home series all year, except for the 2-gamer against the Nats [Doesn't count].

I honestly feel like Detroit loses this game...I dont know why, I just have a gut feeling.
And picks looking good so far Pluthero! As much as it hurts to say this, but I really like the Angels pick unfortunately.

I'm laying off the Detroit game. If Verlander had been pitching to expectations lately I'd feel comfortable laying money on him but as it is...
