Well, Honestly I can say yesterday was on of the most frustrating days I have had betting baseball. First, the Reds played horrible. I watched the first part of the game and Cueto had gave up 7 hits and 4 walks and still no runs. It wasn't because he was pitching out of a jam, but because the cubs can't hit. That game was just a matter of time. The Mets dod what I thought they would do. They got Strausburg into a high pitch count and was looking good. Then the mets decided to make a error on a double play ball that gave the Nats 2 unearned runs. The mets bounced back and I thought the game was over, but in comes Francisco and down go the mets in 9th. Next, I decided to put a little money on the Twins. Dear god up 4-1 in the 8th and the offense that usually can't hit gets 7 runs. Really, 7 runs by the rays in one inning. Twins buy a releaver it helps. The last game I decided to pay a little juice and play the rockies. Well, Jimeniez decided to get blasted and give up 7 in one inning also. Then the rockies came back and took the lead and well they brought in pitcher of the year Manna Corpus who decided that I am going continue to act like I am in Single A and gave up 4 straight hits. So the rockies lose. I should give up but going try again today. Happy 4th guys.
Philadelphia Phillies -141 over the Pittsburgh Pirates
I really don't know what to say about this game. It looks like yesterday the Phillies have decided to maybe try to get through all their injuries and get that offense back on track. The pitching matchup here is last then great. Both pitchers are on par to be average at best and with that equal, I feel the Phillies are just the better team even with the injuries. I think the key here is that Rollins is back and now starting to hit. He has to for this offense to click with no utley or polanco. I think they take the series here. I don't like the juice, but feel good about it.
Tampa Bay Rays and the Minnesota Twins over 9.5
Well, going on the total today. Yesterday, I had the twins in that high scoring game and today liking this total. . I feel this pitching matchup favors the over. Shields has been Terrible in June. He had over 8 era. Blackburn has been really bad also. He was 0-4 with a 12.55 era. That is some crazy numbers for two teams that are in the middle of pennant races. I am suprise they lasted this long and both are on the mound together today. Yesterday, both teams started hitting, but more importantly for the rays they started hitting. I feel that is the key to this over. They built some confidence yesterday and it should keep going today. I really like the over here with a small play on the rays also.
Well going make 2 plays today since its cookeout day. I hope everyone has a great fourth and good luck today
