CRUMBS POD STREAMER Lance McCullers (Astronauts)

[atthehalf]

Lord forgive me for I have sinned

Twinkies/A's UNDER 9 or 9.5 Ryan/Severino depending on your book

[atthehalf]

I just got my envelope. Let's not let the CRUMBS pick of the day from yesterday (Chris Paddack) go without mentioning . My man went 8 FRAMES with 10K's and 1 walk. That's production y'all-I have gotten some really big paydays this week. My CRUMBS record is now 47-19

On Tuesday I am going to roll with Lance McCullers (Astronauts) who only has 13% rostership and is facing the noodle bats of the Buccos. I already risked my $300 so I am locked in and ready to get the bag

[atthehalf]

There is every reason to take the Dodgers today-especially with the Metropolitans travel situation. We saw it with the Bombers who took days on end to get used to that.

Welp I am gonna wait until very late (right up to gametime) to make moves on that one if any

[atthehalf]

My CRUMBS Streamer Of The Day (Don't worry-no way he's not still available)

Fathers (Stephen Kolek) Coming in with a 11% rostership who else looks this good for a 89% return on paper, He’ll throw enough strikes. It could work in San Francisco, but the upside is so minimal and yet the CRUMBS are hard to pass up if he's good tonight

[atthehalf]

Brews-101 Civale
Brews/Red Leggins UNDER 9
Tigers/Pale Hose UNDER 8.5

Ok so I gotta get out of her and get to my son's hitting lessons and then to the field for my stuff that I work with him on which is infield outfield. By the time I get home the games will be in full swing

[atthehalf]

I will be tying up some moves this evening LATER after the final out of the day to seal in the most crumbs as possible

[atthehalf]

Dean Kremer with 6 frames 7K, 2 walks to give me the impressive payday.

Tomorrow of course it's Ryan Weathers (Fish) and his 25% rostership to get the 5/3/1/K/W and the good share split.

Also may want to look at Chris Paddack (Twinkies)folks. He only has 11% rostership and if you use him in a 10 teamer OMG-that would be kickass

[atthehalf]

Welp that will do it for today boys! Be sure to get some Pacers ML later on

[atthehalf]

Just getting back from Hard Rock-did pretty good on the craps table and decided to visit the sport book. My confidant gave me some tips which i blasted away on that are backed by their book

2:20 Cubs-1.5 +130 Pomeranz
3:00 A's+131 Hoglund
4:00 Fish+122 Cabrera
4:00 Tigers-1.5 -117 RL Skubal
4:00 Halos+1.5 -142 RL Hendricks
4:00 Astronauts-125 Gordon
4:00 Braves-1.5 +115 Schwellenbach
7:00 Twinkies-105 Ober
7:00 Bombers-118 Warren
10:00 Nats+1.5 -128 Soroka

[atthehalf]

If you can't get your funds back then just absorb the hit-this is a long baseball season boys

[atthehalf]

Rob Zastryzny is in for the Brews instead of Chad Patrick which of course means that this is effectively going to be a full bullpen game for the Brews. He has previously played in MLB for the Chicago Cubs, New York Mets, Los Angeles Angels, and Pittsburgh Pirates. Expect no more than 1-2 frames from him-I am personally not going to do an emergency draft for him; and instead pick up a bat for Chad Patrick. Some books will let you get your money back for a total on a pitch change like Hard Rock-so be sure to notify them and see what happens. The Blunts absolutely blast left handed pitching so this move makes no sense. Don't you just hate managerial decisions like that?

[atthehalf]

If one wanted to align themselves with the books today-look no further than taking the under as much as humanly possible. There is only ONE public UNDER and that the Tigers/Royals UNDER 7 which went up to 7.5 (wink wink)

[atthehalf]

After yesterday's good payday with Kyle Harrison-I am rolling with (Orioles) Dean Kremer who actually has only 3% rostership

[atthehalf]

No fear

[atthehalf]

Unloading on a TOTAL in a few minutes that the Hard Rock needs BAD. They raised the price on it too. Starts at 8

[atthehalf]

Twins+120 ML
Giants-1.5 +100 RL
Guardians-1.5 +140 RL

[atthehalf]

Damn...don't you just love it when the OVER FF comes in the top half of the 6th frame? Wow

[atthehalf]

Cubs are a crisp 15-8-4 for the OVER FF and also are #2 vs lefties with an OPS of (get this) .823.

Welp

Red Leggins/Cubs OVER 5.5 +110 FF Abbott/Rea

[atthehalf]

I know that Priester got subbed out for DL Hall-but I still have Tijuan ranked dead last! I mean I won't win every move -that's for sure-however I have to stand by my principles when it comes to my knowledge of arms for this sport

[atthehalf]

CRUMBS POD IS Kyle Harrison (Giants)

Cubs-1.5 +120 RL Rea

Bombers-0.5 -108 FF RL Fried
Bombers/Dodgers OVER 4.5 -126 FF Fried/Gonsolin
Bombers-130 ML Fried 2 UNITS

Giants-1.5 -105 RL Harrison 2 UNITS
Giants/Fish OVER 8.5 Harrison/Quantrill

Cardinals-130 ML Liberator

Brews+125 Hall 2 UNITS
Guardians-1.5 +142 RL Ortiz

Astronauts-1.5 +140 RL Valdez

Twins+0.5 -113 FF RL Matthews
Fathers-0.5 -121 FF RL Pivetta
Tigers-122 FF ML Mize
A's+0.5 -110 FF RL Springs
Red Sox+0.5 -115 FF RL Giolito

Rox/Metropolitans UNDER 4.5 -120 FF Freeman/Peterson
Brews/Blunts UNDER 4.5 +110 FF Hall/Walker
A's/Jays UNDER 4.5 -115 FF Springs/Bassitt

[atthehalf]

The Bombers are going to scalp the Dodgers in the first game-I have Fried as my #1 ranked and Gonsolin as a DNS...

[atthehalf]

Just looking ahead-I have Tijuan Walker (Blunts) ranked dead last on the board for tomorrow-look for me to back Priester and the Brews HEAVILY. He has no business being a favored arm.

My CRUMBS POD for tomorrow will be Kyle Harrison (Giants). A LHP against the Marlins is a gift. I'm tossing him out there, even if he was under 60 pitches last time out. This should help get the Giants out of their current losing streak. This could get very ugly very fast as the Fish try to get used to the EST again after a long PST trip with short rest

Seth Lugo may still be recovering from his stint on the injured list-facing Casey Mize may not be the best solution and let's face it-the Tigers are hot as fish grease

[atthehalf]

This is some ignorant stat....

Chris Sale has faced 101 Blunts batters-he has K'd up 40 of them. Let that sink in for a minute. That's ridiculous

[atthehalf]

Ok so

Braves-110 Sale 2 UNITS

[atthehalf]

I m really excited for Friday-there are a lot of really good arms out there facing one another! And of course Colin Rea is facing the Red Leggins with his low rostership!

[atthehalf]

The Sailors are 2nd in K's vs lefties. Gore is #1 in K's with 93 on the season-so

Nats (Gore) OVER 7.5 K's -115

[atthehalf]

My CRUMBS POD is Jacob Lopez (A's) with 0% rostership.

Nats-109 Gore 2 UNITS
Rays-105 Baz
A's/Jays UNDER 4.5 -105 FF Lopez/Berrios
A's+0.5 -115 FF ML Lopez
A's/Jays UNDER 8.5 -120 Lopez/Berrios

[atthehalf]

I hate the Giants manager right about now-pulling Roupp after 4 frames-the 4 runs weren't on him-he only had 1 earned and 7 k's and 2 walks...what a piss off

[atthehalf]

The Fathers starting pitching is not good right now!
