Do not take the braves. Braves will be trailing for most of the game. Braves are goin to have to win this against the weak marlin bullpen. Johnson has been tough on the braves in his last 6 starts. Johnson has allowed a total of 7 runs over 30 innings against the braves (5 innings x 6 starts). I am only looking into the 5 innings because I am taking the marlins ML 5 innings against the braves. IN those 6 starts, Johnson has never trailed after 5 innings of play. The marlins have led in four of those 6 starts. In the other 2 starts, Marlins were tied with the braves after 5 innings. Johnson has given up 1, 1, 0, 1, 3 and 1 runs over 5 innings in those 6 starts. Braves have not been able to hit JOhnson in the first five innings at all. In only one game, did the braves come thru and score 3 runs in the first innings against Johnson. In that game, the braves scored twice in the 5th inning to tie the game at 3. Johnson is coming off a poor outing where he gave up 4 runs over 5 innings in a game in which the marlins trailed 4-2 after 5 innings.
Play: Marlins ML first 5 innings
Great writeup. JJ is a stud. But I have a feelig the books want everyone on him today. Braves will come out and do well as home dogs.
WTF? Gee thanx! And when you bet 1 game you need to win 100% to make money.
Thanx Socrates!
hahahaha now that is funny! Socrates! Can I call you Pluto? You remember him don't you? Goofy's dog! I was just trying to say it's a lot easier to win 1 out of 1 than it is to win 2 out of 3! Didn't mean to give you a wedgie!
As for my question about flat betting! I just now saw your other thread! It seems a little strange to me you wouldn't the post units in both threads! You didn't have them posted in your Friday thread either! You know it does make a lot of difference to anyone who might want to tail you! Anyhoo no hard feelers I hope and may you hit all 3 of your picks!

Strange? That thread is for my record keeping purposes. This thread is just so people find the teams I like easier.
Again just like your Friday Pirates pick I'm going to pass! One of my rules is to never ask a bad team to win for me! And the Cubs are a very bad team!

Love the Cubs and like the Braves. On both. Might look into Astros since we seem to be on the same line.
Very best of luck today!

So were the Nationals and Pirates and Astros against MUCH better teams last week.
