    6-12: Pirates, Astros, D'Bags

    Trying to decide which has the best opportunity to win. All three lines are crazy high for the faves: you have Chen and the O's at -153, Bumgarner and the Giants at -170, and Lewis and the Rangers at -170. All very inflated numbers if you ask me.

    Yeah, might as well add that as well. Cobb at -170? Give me a break.

    Id never back detroit normally but they arent so off and on as everyone depicts, this should technically be easy for them if you stand back and look at it. Scherzer not that bad, more importantly the bullpen should run and have much better oppurtunities than a team like chicago . It`s the lower favorite at -1.38 so....

    I know Gomez is awful and Cueto's an ace, but if you look at the two teams overall I don't know how you can back the Reds at -165 tonight either. So many other factors that balance this game out.

    The TEX/ARI RL went from +116 to +156 and then went back to +116. Hmmm....

    I'm jumping on the Hous/SF over 6.5. NYM/TB over 8 as well.

    Arizona and Pittsburg. Pass on Houston, their road record is horrible

    I like Houston tonight. Bumgarner is good, but not great and the Giants don't exactly swing the bat all that well.

    I'm passing on the snakes/rangers game and here is why.

    Lewis at -156 is too juicy for my taste.

    Kennedy is pitching well - very well in fact. However, his wife recently gave birth. So fukking what, you ask...? Well, dealing with the birth of a child can be pretty draining. Just ask Humber who pitched a no hitter, welcomed a baby, then proceeded to sh1t the bed for the following several games.

    Rangers are 1-1 this season in their first home game after a road trip of 9 or more games. I interpret this as they can be a little sleepy or their bats can heat up and exploit (a potentially) drained Kennedy.
