    Is Greinke Going to Continue Recent Success?

    Installed as a road favorite (MIL-112) @ 5 Dimes for a team that's not winning consistently. Is he THAT good?

    Guy is a top 10 SP in the MLB. Yes, he is that good. At -105, I will bet him every single game, especially against Homer Bailey

    Zack Greinke is not a good road pitcher he has an ERA 4.14 on the road where opponents hit .310.

    The Brewers are 1-5 in their last 6 road games vs. a right-handed starter.

    The Reds are 27-8 in Bailey's last 35 starts vs. a team with a losing record.

    The Brewers are 12-26 in the last 38 meetings, including 5-14 in the last 19 meetings in Cincinnati.

    Greinke has down well vs the reds though. I don't know if I like them for the full game but I did pay the juice an picked brewers first five +.5. Guess we'll see what happens

    Grienke won the Cy Young three years ago. Recent success?

    Braun is out of the lineup today. Greinke can throw a shutout and still lose in extras. Brewers can't hit at the moment.

    Not even worth debating over this when you're using data from 2010 to 'cap today's game.

    Greinke will do well but I don't like either side on this one. Braun out of the lineup, Baily pretty good, and a serious edge for the Reds bullpen. Odds are sharp on this one. No play.

    For the early games I like White Sox -1.5 and the over 9 on Rays vs Royals.

    Will also take a look at Mets vs Cubs.

    Agree. He's clearly a beginner. He'll learn eventually, or maybe he won't.

    The funny part about onacloud's stats is that Bailey is actually 0-4 against Milwaukee with a 6.3 ERA. He gave up 6 ER in 3.2 IP this year and 5 ER in 6 IP last year.

    I always bet on Homer Bailey, and never learn. This is the last time I bet on him....

    Thank you all for your contribution before first pitch. It looks like Greinke and the Brewers deserved the road favorite line given to them. I appreciate all your input.
