    Early MLB Value Leans

    Looking at just the early games so far (1 pm - 2:30 pm)

    Why can't the White Sox win two straight on the road vs. Cleveland.
    We discussed the Indians troubles with LH pitching, Quintana isn't elite, but he's a top ten American League LH pitcher.
    Carrasco make the start for Cleveland.

    Looking at White Sox +181


    Staying with the Why Can't theme.

    Why can't the Rockies win two straight on the road in Wrigley.
    Jake (from State Farm) has been hittable all season, Rox (as we all know) can mash.
    This guy Senzatela that starts today for Colorado is not that bad, 8-2 record 3 1/2 ERA 1.16 WH/IP when you consider he pitches half his games at Coors is actually worth a double take.

    Vegas keeps over valuing the Cubs and the sharps keep cashing with the fade.

    Looking at Colorado here at +163

    Why would anybody lay -173 fading the Rockies bats?
    That's insane


    Mets really don't hit LHP that well. (except maybe for Flores and Cespedes power numbers)
    Garcia is crafty (which is code for he can't break a pane of glass with a fast ball) but I can see him prevailing in this spot.
    Lugo ain't deGrom or Syndegaard. Braves bats are overachieving this season, even without Freeman.

    Looking at home Braves here at a very reasonable -117.

    Phillies with Nola against Wain-o and the Cards are worth a look.
    Wain-o showing his age, been allowing way too many baserunners.

    Nola +125 worth a look. (I'd like +133 or better, but that's what the book is offering)
    I think the books are hip to Wain-o, Phils on the road in St. Louis and getting only +125 is pretty disrespectful.

    My dogs (two Jack Russells) are barking, I got to take them to the park or my wood floor gets crapped on.
    Be back a little later, we'll look at the late games then.

    Oh, allow me to be an attention whore for a moment.
