    Best value on the board today......Easy MLB pick for 4/3- TWINKIES

    Baseball is all about value and dogs.
    You have to hop on the home teams getting a price whenever you see a window.
    Today is one of those games.
    Win or lose you cannot go wrong taking the Twins +145.

    Analballs Sanchez is nothing more than an average pitcher. He's been gettin rocked all spring, the Twins beat him at home twice last year.
    This guy may be the most overrated pitcher in the league (80 million is a joke go look at this guys numbers).

    Correia is average at best also, but he's a solid horse every year. He gives you 30 starts.
    I think if he can manage 6 innings and 2 or 3 runs he will get the win today.

    You're a fool to lay the wood on this guy (Sanchez) on the road.

    Go Twins!!!!!!!!

    Benny, I like your big nuts pal, but why in the fukk all the love for the Twinkies this season??????

    Sharps tried this on Monday.

    Trust me, as a twins fan, I would love for the twins to have a +EV season. But it's not in the cards.

    Just hit the team totals over for every twins opponent and thank me later. No "value" in the twins.

    Sharps tried it Vs. Verlander (An ACE).
    No love for the Twins from me as a team. Just today.
    +150 at home vs. a borderline scrub at times in Sanchez?
    Don't know how you don't see the value in that.
    He's just not that calibur of a pitcher to lay that much wood on the road brah.
    Let's also not forget the Tigers bullpen is a disaster right now. I'm not sold on them as contenders until I see the pen hold it down for a month. They could blow 10 games in a month you never know.

    If i lose my bet I can recover with one winner and possibly come out ahead, if someone loses on Detroit you're gonna need 2 winners in a row to come out barely ahead. It's simple math the chalk bettors can't comprehend.
    You don't always have the prettiest picks on paper when you take dogs. But you have to find value in below average teams sometimes to be a profitable MLB bettor.
    I like this game 99 out of 100 times today, win or lose.

    Big Day the Twins are at home and have the better pitcher going tonight.

    Twins have a better bullpen too, and Morneau And Mauer are both healthy for the first time in like 5 years

    I don't bet totals EVER. Laying -110 is insane on a total for baseball when you can actually beat the game itself with moneylines and no juice half the time. This is the only sport where totals shouldn't be mentioned in a forum IMO.
    But yeah, there could be a buttload of runs today. I'm gonna say 5-3 Twins though lol. I can't afford a shootout type of game the Twins offense isn't that explosive.

    Sanchez is a guy you know what you get. I also laugh at the money they paid him.
    He is a guy that his era will fall between 3.60-4.00 he is steady doesnt walk to many.
    But superstar no. Correia at 32 had his best year ever, but it wasnt that good. How much
    more will a 33 yr old pitcher improve moving to the AL....he wont. his numbers are mediocre
    across the board but could blow up in the AL. If I had to bet this game the theres not enough
    separate the good from the bad so no way I'm laying wood on the road in this one.

    Today im taking a chalk parlay..... Harvey pitched super this ST I watched games where
    the jugs came close to 100. I think Harvey comes into the picture big this year people do
    not realize how close this guy is to Strasberg talent. Licksumcum is declining every year
    this year Im really surprised he is starting. I dont think the guy could get me out this spring
    his ERA was over 10. He is a guy who will pitch 1 game out of 4 now. Becketts move to a
    picther friendly stadium and the NL is now a little better than avg but I think like last year
    they move will help him pitch well again.
    So parlaying METS/DODGERS
    I see some good handicappers in the forum now for mlb but my hero is missing, As Mookie would say ....Where he at?

    Sanchez has been about almost a 4 win pitcher every year since 09. I don't think hes worth what hes getting, but I'm not sure I would trust Correia here.

    er no correia was "amazing" his first 2 starts, and amazing meaning not a disaster. Other than that He's the type of pitcher a team signs because they've done a terrible job at developing any minor league and need to sign someone for next to nothing. Corriea is making 5m a year and far more overpayed than Sanchez.

    Please stop. Get your knowledge up brah:
    Correia has MORE wins than Analballs 3 of the last 4 seasons. Getting paid more than 1/3 less.
    Analballs Sanchez' career numbers-
    48-51 and only 144 games started in 7 FULL seasons as a starter That's an avg of 20 starts per season basically.
    His highest win total in a season is 13 and that was the ONLY season he busted double digit wins.
    Translation? 80 Million.

    So gross watching this Twins offense. 3 batters strike out looking with 2 men on base already this game.
    Down 2-0 hoping for plan B which is the terrible Tigers bullpen to dog this one.

    My buddy is a Tigers fan he was texting me the whole game I kept saying don't worry Benoit or Coke will blow it, and it will be one of 30 saves the team blows this year.
