I like Pitt of course and I would lean with SD but Arroyo has been pitching real well so a win is not guaranteed and certainly a 2 run win is asking a lot even with Peavy. Same with OAK...they should beat KC but they have a tendency to play close games at home. I mean both games against KC so far have been one run games and when they played in KC they had a 1 run game...so basically 3/5 games have been decided by 1 run.
No opinion on the Mets...but would lean toward Houston personally.Comment -

ok here are my comments sdjoe:
sd -1.5?? that is a tough tough play. i'm sorry to say i disagree with that one quite a bit. Cincy could win this one, as Arroyo could easily match Peavey. this could also easily be an extra inning game where a 2 run win by sd would be unlikely. and its not like youre getting such great odds with it. what are you getting? +130? +140? Does sd win this game by 2 or more more than 42% of the time? i really dont think so.
the oak game i feel the same about, but less strongly. perez will probably have a decent game, and if he does, a 2 run win will be tough. this will be 2 decent starters and 2 iffy pens (huston street is on the DL, remember) and if perez can keep KC in the game, a 2 run win for Oak will be tough to get, at close to even money I don't like it.
pitt and the mets are ok, but i think the lines are about right for those games. im not as high on Duke having a good start as BuddyBear is. theres probably value with pitt and the mets, but only a little IMO.
but GL sdjoe, happy to comment.Comment -
First off, welcome to the SBR forum
I do respectfully disagree with your Cincy play. However, I do like your Giants and Mets plays.
