Texas Total For Today

mandude · 05-07-10, 01:32 PM

The more I look at this total the more I like it. Greinke gets shit for run support & the under is 4-1 his last five against the Rangers. The change in wind also makes me feel better. Now if only the bullpens dont get involved we should be ok.

this looks like a 3-1 3-2 type of game

the wind has switched directions today out of the North at about 20 mph. No jet stream tonight to center and right like last night.

Greinke and Wilson on the mound with ERA's of 2.27 and 1.65 respectively. Total sitting at 8. If these guys can keep their pitch count in check and make it to the 7th / 8th inning and not have to use the tired bullpens after last nights 25 run explosion, then the under looks good.

I took the under in this Texas / KC game for 2 units. no other totals for me tonight.

that would be the thing that worries me but sounds good, gl

If the SPs exit in the 7th, you could have 8 runs in the 8th inning.

plus with all the runs they put up last night.the game following a slugfest is usally a low scoring game

you are right and yes, that is the big 'IF'. I'm banking on a low scoring game after yesterdays 25 run burst. hopefully the starters can hang around til the 8th.

Going UNDER in the FF may not be a bad move. I doubt there'll be more than 3 runs in the FF of that game. Greinke can pitch a shutout and there's a law that says "The Royals bats must stay quiet whenever Greinke takes to the mound". So we may have a 1-run or 2-run FF and then the pens get excited in the latter innings so the crowd can be well entertained.
