    A doggy just that might bark really loud tonight

    Brewers with Gallardo +180 over Nationals tonight has been talking to me all day (so to speak)

    Gallardo has more than good enough stuff to silence the overrated Nats bats.
    You don't think the National bats are overrated???

    Nats bats are:
    Almost dead last (28th ranked) in runs scored, 28th ranked in batting average, 29th ranked in on base percentange, and 20th ranked in slugging.

    Like I mentioned, Gallardo has very good stuff, his only problem is he's inconsistent.
    He was good in April, butt ugly in May, and pitching a lot better in June.
    Throw out the last start against the Cubbies, the three previous starts he had Gallardo allowed zero earned runs.
    22 consecutive innings of uneared run baseball up until his last start suggests to me he may have found his form.

    Nationals have trouble with Gallardo:

    WASHINGTON NATIONALS CAREER STATISTICS VS. YOVANI GALLARDO
    BATTER AB H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO AVG OBP SLG OPS
    Roger Bernadina 5 2 0 0 0 0 1 2 .400 .500 .400 .900
    Ian Desmond 10 2 1 0 0 0 1 3 .200 .273 .300 .573
    Danny Espinosa 10 2 1 0 1 3 1 1 .200 .273 .600 .873
    Bryce Harper 6 1 0 0 0 0 0 2 .167 .167 .167 .333
    Adam LaRoche 24 8 2 0 2 5 3 7 .333 .407 .667 1.074
    Stephen Lombardozzi 3 1 0 1 0 3 0 0 .333 .333 1.000 1.333
    Wilson Ramos 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 .000 .000 .000 .000
    Denard Span 14 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 .000 .000 .000 .000

    Chad Tracy 4 2 0 0 0 1 0 0 .500 .500 .500 1.000
    Jayson Werth 11 2 0 0 0 1 0 4 .182 .167 .182 .348
    Ryan Zimmerman 8 2 0 0 1 4 3 4 .250 .455 .625 1.080
    Totals 100 22 4 1 4 17 9 27 .220 .282 .400 .682

    Take Bernadina out of the equation who is not starting, that .220 average goes to about .212
    Bryce Harper is back, how sharp can he be tonight, he has missed 31 games, figure he needs about a week to get back to 100 percent game day ready.

    Nobody is saying Zimmerman is horse crap, he is not, I am not ignoring the 11-3 start, but -205 on Zimmy backed by a team that can't score much, whose opponent is very capable of matching him pitch for pitch is whack.
    And as long as ESPN and others keep sucking the Nationals and Davey Johnson, and everything else National roosters, the lines will always be inflated.

    Segura, the other Car-Go, A-Ram, and LuCroy 2-5 in the order can touch Zimmy up.

    Listen guys, I'm not here yelling this -330 game is the lock of the century bet your next new born kind on this, I am not even saying the Brewers are a stone cold lock.

    I'm not here to tell you to play, pass, or fade, I am saying this doggy just might both bark and bite tonight.

    I am saying +180 on Gallardo tonight, in this spot, is worth a .5 or 1* play.

    I played the Under 3.5 FF for the max...

    So yeah, I'm also expecting a strong performance from 'Vani

    -135 on the +1.5 is more than reasonable in what you would assume should be a pitchers duel

    I am warming up to this. The more I look into this game the more Milwaukee is tempting a play.

    Gallardo too schizo for my liking. I don't see the Brewers getting 4 on Zimmerman.

    If he wasn't so schizo, he wouldn't be +180.
    Like I said, it's not a lock, Gallardo brings his 'A' game, the payoff is 9:5
    If he doesn't, then oh well, it's not a play to go heavy on, it's a play that has a good chance of cashing nicely is what I am saying.

    Unreal you don't know that Braun has been on the DL? Big Bear, I feel like you are talking out of your ass 90% of the time. Aoki + Lucroy > Ramirez + Weeks

    True. Brewers lineup is incredibly weak 6-9. You have Harper coming back, all signs point to the Nats. Hope it cashes for you though. I wasn't expecting Zimermann to be -190 that is for sure.

    Well written Mr. Nash. After watching most of their 14 inning game yesterday I can't put any money on the Brewers right now, coldest team in MLB in my opinion. Good luck, good post!

    I definitely fee where your coming from but still we have to use something when it comes to capping games and statistics, trends etc. are the best we got but in the end it usually comes down to the ball bouncing a certain way or whether or not a player was out clubbing late the night before.

    What stats did I present are useless?
    Is football a unpredictable game where anything can happen?

    I spend 90 minutes to 2 hours a morning capping games, these so called useless stats you refer to made me (and others on these boards can attest to this) a crap load of money last year, and we are doing well again this first half.

    But thanks for your valued opinion.
