Like the play

Can we trust Pineda today for a Trop under? I'm not so sure. Shields has throw a LOT of pitches lately and Pineda has never approached as many innings before. We could have two tired SP's today. Very tempting though...

[Redscot]

Like the play too Biff Tee. Looking at your Injuns atm, Porcello last 20 starts at home 14 overs 2 pushes 4 unders, most lines were right around 9 where today's sit. First glance under appealed to me, but if it somehow were to drop to 8 1/2, which I doubt, I would be inclined to go over. Where do you have that one?

that's a tough game, i think i may have to pass. it's under or nothing for me at the Trop. here, i think FF under or M's TT under probably safer, but they both have heavy juice (TT under is 3 -150!). i've hit the under each of the first two games of that series, afraid i might get burned if i go back a third time.

i've got it at right around 8.5. it's really hard to know what to expect from Jiminez right now, so i can't argue much with the over.

Biff, fun day at the track didn't see any great value horses,
but i sure see some value in that cincy/pitt under

[pacocn]

Biff, cincy/pitt game weather a non factor,
cloudy, limited wind, Davidson rocking a 64% strike
rate, i think Leake and McDonald will benefit from that
expanded strike zone.

Biff, Under at the trop has dropped to 6.5

i like the under there, just trying to narrow down leans into plays. i have CIN/PIT at 7.4-7.55 runs, so definitely see value in the under. also like FF under (can get 5 -130 or 4.5 +100).

Biff, Under at the trop has dropped to 6.5

i'm passing on that one, but i can see why people like it. i have that one at 5.75-5.9 runs.

playing the under three straight games in the series seems a bit aggressive.

you're not kidding, about the big card and the White Sox game. gotta hope Foster is one of those umps that wants to get outta town.

Ty for the soccer play also tailing you on the Padres...bol

[BiffTFinancial]

holy shit, anyone watching the O's/Angels game? Pie 2 base error on fly ball with two outs (lost it in the sun), then 2 bases error on steal of 3rd to score the gift-wrapped run. man, the O's are a bad team.

This is the end of the line for me for MLB this season. Should've called it quits a week ago when i was still up 25+ units but got greedy, and yesterday was the first time that i've ventured into negative units since the first week of June, and that's a good a red flag as any. Been really erratic since the All-Star Break (4* picks 2-7-3 since the Break - ugh), and time to accept it and move on. At any rate, pleased to have finished in the black for my first MLB season, albeit by the slimmest of margins. Thanks you to all for stopping by and sharing your thoughts, BOL to you the rest of the way. On to football, see you in a couple of weeks.
