Idk why but Nats scare me today. Nats, Yankees I feel should win...but they are looking "funny" to me. Why Royals here? Who is this Ventura guy?

**Simon Gruber** · 04-15-14, 10:11 AM

Red Sox -1 seems like a safe bet. I'm not a big Peavy fan but this guy Johnson should be working at Pep Boys or something.

Weather has me a bit concerned. Temps in 30s and 8-10 mph wind in from right-center. That said, on numbers alone, love the over.

May be bad for the long ball but you can't ignore these two bums on the bump. I actually think cold weather effects pitchers (grip on ball) more than hitters.

If it weren't for weather this total would/should be 9.5/10. I love the value (EV or better) on the o8

10 of 12 Twins' games have pushed or gone o8
Both of Hughes' starts have gone o8 (11 runs & 20 runs)
Jays hitting .295 v Hughes
Both of Morrows' starts have gone o8 (9 runs & 10 runs)

Jays over TT might be the better play.

BOL

You think Jays take the win? Or you see Twins having a good chance in winning?

Don't like a side but gun to head I'd take Jays. Hughes is an auto fade.

Hughes is bad and the Jays are showing some signs of life. I like Toronto here. and the over

**SilverTongueFox** · 04-15-14, 10:36 AM

Biff, why not Dodgers o3.5 TT or o7.5 game total?

Dodgers 6-1 on the road
Dodgers avg 5 runs on the road
While Lincecum has been decent v Dodgers, he is no longer a pitcher that you can back.
Fact that Beckett going, another bum, should be some runs scored.

**NYSportsGuy210** · 04-15-14, 10:43 AM

I like Peavy vs. his former team angle and the Red Sox in last place need to start winning more. ChiSox SP isn't that great.

Also like the OVER in Twins-Blue Jays.

The only time that angle is plausable IMO is if its the first time they're playing their old team. Players change teams all the time, you think everytime they play a team they used to play for, they get an edge?

Tuesday 4.15.2014 updated card
1* ML parlay: Nationals + Royals (+155)
1* Pirates ML (-110)
1* Astros TT under 3' (-110)
1* Rockies/Padres under 7 (-105)

For 1* Astros TT under 3' (-110), I'm guessing that you are wagering that the Astros will not score more then 3 runs the whole game, right? I'm only asking because my website only offers moneyline, runline, over under and first five. no individual team totals.

i feel like both those bets are great...lincecum got murdered at home vs arizona and beckett just got off the DL and allowed 4 runs in 4 innings...

I've found that some websites post those lines later. It will be under MLB Team Props

**Jesus33** · 04-15-14, 10:52 AM

dam over 7.5 is already at -120 i think it'll bump up to 8 in a few

**NYSportsGuy210** · 04-15-14, 10:56 AM

Nicasio is a decent pitcher for Colorado....gonna take Rockies ML tonight.

**PapaDBets** · 04-15-14, 11:02 AM

Biff any thoughts on the Under for the OAK/LAA game tonight? I have it capped at 7-7.5 and I can get it at +110 right now. Don't really understand why the under is at + money to be honest...

Sorry, meant to say I can get Under 8 +110 right now. Have it capped at 7-7.5

**Jesus33** · 04-15-14, 11:08 AM

courtesy of espn

The Royals may have a chance to get their offense on track against a struggling Lucas Harrell(0-2, 11.05). The right-hander has given up five runs, seven hits and three walks in each of his first two starts while failing to pitch more than 4 1/3 innings.Harrell allowed two runs in the opening frame Wednesday in Toronto and gave up another three before being pulled with one out in the fifth.He gave up two hits over seven scoreless innings in his only start against Kansas City last season but did not get a decision in a 2-0 loss June 9.Harrell might not be too thrilled to see Omar Infante on this year's Kansas City squad. The second baseman is 5 for 6 all-time against him.

**BiffTFinancial** · 04-15-14, 11:29 AM

Happy Jackie Robinson Day to one and all!

Correct. If you can't play team total and want to make a correlated play, i like the game under 8'.

I'm a big Ventura fan (then again, i was also a big Chris Archer fan last night and we all know how that turned out...). Ventura's first start (vs Rays last week) was appointment viewing for me. I had the Rays TT under there and it came through with ease. Similar angle tonight - i think that Astros really will struggle to touch Ventura. BOL whatever you decide.

I like that over a lot, as well as over in Mets/Dbacks. May be adding those shortly. Mildly bummed that i missed 7' on LAD/SF, but would rather play 8 than pay 20+ cents juice on 7' anyway.

That game is a pass all-around for me. Minor lean to White Sox but not nearly enough to play them.

I have that one around 7.7-7.8 so lean under. If there were an under ump behind the plate, i'd be considering it, but best i can tell, this is Chris Segal's first game calling balls and strikes. Pass for me, BOL if you play it.

The more I look at this, the more i'm leaning Dodgers' TT over 3' -115

Detroit Tigers RL tonight.....OVER 8 in Blue Jays vs. Twins game....Red Sox ML....OVER 7.5 in Dodgers -Giants game.

Yea couldn't find much info on Segal either. Thanks for the feedback, Biff.

**SilverTongueFox** · 04-15-14, 12:39 PM

I don't like being on the game total and TT but having a hard time laying off Jays o4 TT. Especially if I can get it at EV. When you are given a gift, Phil Hughes, you take advantage.

I can see why, though I decided to go with 4 and no juice. My rule is, I pay juice for a push but not for a win (i.e., a half-run or half-point). Reasonable minds certainly can differ. Hopefully Los Doyers hang a half-dozen on Timmay and it's all a moot point. BOL tonight STF.

**OMGChoGath** · 04-15-14, 12:53 PM

Hey what do you think about the jays -125?
