    I like the Pirates and Snell tomorrow night. No strong opinion either way on the others.

    Also leaning to the D'Backs -112 and Twins/Rangers under 9.5.

        After further review, I'm probably going to drop Oakland and the Halos. I can't bet against Garland and the Angels have to cool off some time.

        I really like Pittsburgh and the Mets tomorrow...

        Will probably play Washington, Minnesota, and Seattle as well.

        Any other thoughts, gentlemen?

          I was fortunate enough to cash with Washington today, I don't see it tomorrow. Not that Cincy is a play either.

          The Mets at even or so might be an OK play. Chuck has struggled with them at times, and Perez has had a lot of success against ATL. But I like the Braves lineup and bullpen both a lot more than the Mets right now.

          I'm not sure why Pittsburgh is a dog. That's probably the biggest pitching mismatch on the board.

          I'm a big fan of Boof, but I think he will get hit hard in this one. Texas is the play IMO, but laying off, mostly because that coincides with something much more important.

          I like the Tigers a lot tomorrow. Colon is terribly overpriced and he hasn't been even close to his former self since returning from injury. The numbers are deceiving, and I think the Tigers will make him pay tomorrow. Still like the Tigers lineup better.

          I'm on Tampa against Seattle. Two supbar pitchers, I'll go with the lefty and better offense at home and hope the pen can hold on.

          Oakland is a good one I think. Garland has struggled a lot with Texas in the past, though his start at McAfee this year was strong. Gaudin matched him though, and his road numbers have been very good, so I think he keeps them in it.

              Actually I meant the A's, but had Texas on the brain for some reason.

                I'm playing Pittsburgh and the Mets for sure...

                Seattle is out and I'm still deciding on Washington and Minnesota...

                I liked Seattle because they've done well against lefties this year and I'm not impressed with Tampa Bay. Fossum is horrible.

                I like Washington simply because Cincinnati shouldn't be favored by that much against anyone. I also think the Nats have the better starting pitcher in this game.

                I really like Bonser and he's been solid over his last 5 outings. Don't know why the Twins are the dog here...

                Anyway, Pittsburgh and the Mets are in and I'm still debating on Washington and Minnesota.
