    Will Toronto Avoid the Sweep Tomorrow?
    Marcum (7-3, 3.14 ERA) vs Masterson (2-7, 5.21 ERA), starting pitching matchup def. favors Toronto, and playing the "won't get swept" angle makes me think Toronto will come out with a win tomorrow. Plus I Masterson is pretty much an automatic fade for me, and the lines only -145..Someone talk me out of this if this is the wrong play

      Marcum is one of my favourite pitchers.

      Will prolly play it.

        TOR has been 3-3 in avoiding the broom this season and CLE is 1-3 in sweeping opponents (both stats apply for a 3-game series). My initial lean is to back TOR and the over.

          I like it. I just parlayed it with Yankee's ML for a little afternoon action at +120

            thinking the same thing, new territory for Cleveland though. 3 straight wins over a team with a winning record.

              4 game sweep by a lesser team? Strange things happen, but never bet on the strange.

                    Why would you want to bet on a team that is struggling offensively. These toronto batters chase a lot of pitches, they hit a lot of home runs to start the season but the pitchers are getting smart these days while facing them. Even though Toronto looks like a good play with Marcum, I wouldn't put a penny on them. Cleveland is looking good ever since Santana arrived.

                      Of particular interest:

                      Marcum in day games: 5-0, WHIP 1.08, BAA .212
                      Marcum outdoors: 7-0, WHIP 1.05, BAA .216
                      Last start vs CLE: 8 IP, 2H, 0 ER

                      The only thing I can say about Masterson is that he's been much better in June, but that's not saying a lot. I feel like the BlueJays RL is the way to go if you're going to trust in them tomorrow, with their ace on the mound.

                                                They are worse than a high school softball squad right now. They cant score off any pitcher.
