Pirates Recommendation

[mockingboy]

Hello All-

I think you can find a lot of value in the Pirates recently on ML and over bets.

They are leading MLB this month in runs scored and the pitching hasn't been so horrendous.

Look for Overs and value plays.

Just my opinion..any thoughts?

Looks like they just blew today's game. I have taken the Pirates a few times in the past week but I have a feeling they will cool down next week.

Well, I certainly can't argue with anyone taking the Astros' opponent at a nice plus-price right now. Should be an interesting series for Houston at home this week vs the Cardinals.

Was watching the Astros, Pirates game earlier this afternoon and one of the Houston broadcasters noted the Bucs are challenging a 60-year-old franchise record for home runs in a month. The record is 43 set in 1947 -- not sure which month they did it in -- a team that had Kiner and Greenberg on it. With Freddy Sanchez going yard this afternoon, Pittsburgh currently has swatted 41 long flies this month, for what that's worth.
