Rays (-105) Risking 2.1 units to win 2 units
Ive been chomping at the bit to fade CC sabathia against a righty dominant lineup, and the day has finally come against this rays lineup. Yesterday the rays put out 8 righties against lefty price who doesnt even have splits that show he struggles against righties, so I expect them to do the same against the lefty CC because his splits show a different story. In the last 3 years, CC vs righties has averaged .373 wOBA, 3.82 xFIP, 1.53 WHIP, 18.2 K%, and 6.5 BB%, compared to lefties he is .wOBA .264, xFIP 3.05, .95 WHIP, 28.6 K%, and 5.6 BB%. That is a huge distinct difference in numbers that clearly shows his struggles vs righties. Also CC's velo is down on all of his pitches this season from 1-3 mph and so far this season he has gotten away with throwing his cutter 36% of the time, which in years past was his worse pitch according to weighted values and he only threw it very rarely. Moore on the other side I am not worried about, he can hold his own and has shown some great stuff so far this season. He should do fine against this struggling yankee lineup. I will also take tampa TT over for a unit once it is released.Comment -

brutal game. moore was pitching superb, CC was pitching like shit but got out of jams. and still lose. I had to stop watching when the yanks stole home. I knew we were losing when that happened. just the way the cookie crumbles sometimes thats why I dont weight my bets larger than 2x....
anyways on to tmrw....one so far for the afternoon

I get a real scary vibe from this game. all the numbers support detroirt quite heavily yet their home underdogs? in the past this has not been a good a sign. but Im always one to stick with the numbers and its quite clear detroit is the playComment -

ugh, pretty sure I can spot the bait but I just dont have the discipline to lay off it....I just dont understand how they know these things based off the available numbers.....Roark got 15 strikeouts against the hottest hitting team in the last 7 days....thats 75% more strikeouts than hes gotten all season in 3 games against teams that were struggling to hit....baseball makes you wonder sometimes...and teh question you need to ask yourself is do oddsmakers know this was going to happen? or are they just setting the table based on the market? either way they are usually spotable and I just got to learn to atleast lay off the bait

shits red sox are probably just waking up from their plane flight back from houston. love me some garret richards this year although its a little scary betting with this shitty angels lineup. expect giants bats to fully wake up against the two pitch (should be in the bullpen) pitcher pomeranz. also miguel gonzalez should be going back to the minors soon. lets see if I can hit my first two team parlay of the season

Tigers (-125) Risking 1.25 units to win 1 units
Tigers should go on a little streak here their bats have been crushing it the last 3 games after going through a little bit of a slump. I watched them against sonny gray and they were just crushing everything even good pitches out of the zone. look for the trend to continue. Zimmerman is looking as good as ever this year throwing his slider 10% more often than years past and it has usually been his most effective pitch. Tyler Duffey is essentially a two pitch pitcher (which I love fading, but he throws a changeup 5% of the time if that counts) and alternates between his fastball and curve. Tigers lineup over the last two seasons are the 5th most effective team against curveballs hitting at a wCB/c 0.64 rate. I think this will be a low scoring game but Zimmm should pull out the win.Comment -

Some people say Latos is "due" for regression, but looking at his numbers I disagree. Why? Because pitchers are constantly evolving and changing things and Latos has become an elite pitcher over the last two seasons. He has learned to stay away from his changeup which has been his worst pitch and effectively use his splitfinger fastball which I love a starter with a good SF. He has learned which pitches to throw in different situations and is keeping hitters guessing. His contact% and (o-contact%) is at all an time high but hes creating poor contact, 28.8% of which are soft hit balls (thats 4th best in the league amongst starters). He has the 6th lowest LD% at 12.3%. His heatmaps will show that he is finnally learned to keep his splitfinger in the strike zone and has been able to distribute his pitches evenly throughout the strikezone (last year he was predicatbly living in the bottom of the strike zone and not keeping them strikes) Last year, he had a few games where he came out struggling badly but despite that he still ended the year with 3.69 xFIP. Sure he has been hit hard in the past by this orioles team but that was back in 2014 before he got his splitfinger and in that game he threw his awful changeup at an all time high 25% (why I do not know?). Theyve been pulling him early so lets go with the FF to be safe as I also love the Britton and the O's bullpen. Those who believe Latos is going to regress automatically point to his LOB% and BABIP, although this is sometimes the case, its not always the case with all pitchers as Arrieta sports a 95.2% LOB and .188 BABIP this season, yet I dont see anyone saying arrieta is due to regress. sometimes a pitchers stuff is just that nasty.Comment -
