DFoster Wednesday Picks/Leans, 150-127-4, 54.55%, +36.15 units

After a long memorial day weekend float trip and a busy Tuesday, I'm back for some action. I've been cold in the previous 3 days of plays, so be aware.

Plays 1:

PIT ML +155 --- 2 units
PIT RRL +229 --- 1 unit

Duke has had a stellar career against the Cubs. Chicago has been completely terrible against lefties this year and Duke has been a top 20 starter thus far. Chicago is 1-8 in their last 9 and look terrible (unfortunately my team). With a line like this, I can't not take the Bucks. Zambrano is a guessing game and while I love the guy, he's completely over-rated in both fantasy baseball and line making.

No play on the BAL/TOR game

Hill has looked solid and Baltimore is streaking but the O's are 3-19 against the Jays when Halladay starts. Initially I thought there would be solid value with Hill and the O's but not at +140. I thought about the under but I don't like a couple of the trends on the over when Halladay starts...and the ump is a slight over ump. The Jays hit lefties rather well. I don't see any value in this game or any of the lines currently.

No play on the STL/MIL game

Hardy and Braun are back but still a question mark in what they'll do. I like Parra against the Cards today and the fact the Brewers have dominated the Cards in the past. I don't like the streak of solid Cardinal SP outings and a few of the trends here. I lean witht he Brewers but I don't think theres value in a -132 line today.

DET/KC under 9.0 +104 --- 1.5 units
DET ML -105 --- 1.5 units

Both pitchers have been solid lately and both have preferred day games to night pretty significantly. We have an under ump in Hohn and a 13 MPH wind blowing in. The only thing here that I don't particularly like is Davies performance at home and his last outing against the Tigers. Porcello has been dominating and the Royals are flat out not hitting right handers. I'm going with the Tigers to in the game 5-3 here.
