    Write up and insight towards playing Pirates -1.5 (+120)

    Books are favouring the pirates for a reason, they finally are recieving some support from there bats and with burnett on the mound they will win this game. Pirates +120 is not an incredible price but there is definetly money to be won here.

    2 key things tonight
    1. Lucas Harrell (Houston -R) has been lights out his last 2 games....at home... vs the indians and the padres.... in 16 innings he has allowed 8 hits and 1 run but still 7 walks...
    in his previous 3 road games he is lucky to be 1-2 allowing 19 runs on 23 hits with 4 walks in 17.2 innings..... He will get at least 5 innings tonight and he will allow 5+ which is all the pirates need.

    2. AJ Burnett (Pittsburgh -R) has been on fire going 8-0 in his last 10 never allowing more then 3 runs and going 6+ innings 8 times. In his last 6 he has not allowed more then 1 hit an inning and if that continues he should hold this houston team to maybe 2 runs if burnett really screws up. Houston is no threat to a pitcher that has been dominating week after week.

    Other stats suggesting pirates dominance

    Pirates @ Home 24-13 10-6 @ home vs division
    Astros on the Road 9-29 3-10 on road vs division

    Astros 17-29 vs NL RHP
    Pirates 23-22 vs NL RHP

    Astros 7 runs in last 5 games
    Pirates an incredible 41 runs in their last 5

    Pirates won 3 of their last 4 games by 4 or more runs.

    Pirates 9-2 in last 11 home games
    Astros lost 7 straight on road and have only lost one by less then 3 runs

    Pirates are 9-3 in their last 12 games in houston


    Score prediction 6-2 Pirates

    Wow that is a very interesting combo to get to +1338. And looks sharp. I have never considered a parlay approach like this with carefully selected alt lines. I really hope that cashes for you.

    I agree with your analysis and I am on Astros TT u3. Also on Yankees ML let's cash it.

    Jays an Royals surprised me usually i do quite well with these type of parlays. Cecil is usually good for 2+ hits an inning

    Had the same analysis for this game. Right now it's backwards for us however hopefully that changes soon. I took the ov 7.5 for this game as well. Go Bucs!
