Texas / Tampa pick according to power rating

[cbrgsxr2010]

According to the PR system it comes out to

Cliff Lee pitcher rating at 232 with a backing bullpen rating of 1203.

David Price pitcher rating is 75 with a bullpen rating of 555.

Differences is 157 for PR and 648 for BPR

System shows a 1 unit play if the PR is 20 or more and BPR is 100 or more.

Pick tonight is Tampa- 113

(Line movement for Texas has went from +108 to +103, not a huge jump but enough to keep an eye on)

this means next to nothing. the only thing that has any significance is:

1. Lee undefeated post season so this is a factor mentally for both teams, only thing Texas has period.
2. Rangers choked the series away at home in close out mode, in their head.
3. Tampa momentum as it's best right now going home where they are very tough to beat.
4. Price just as good as Lee and better at home than Lee on the road.
5. Tampa was the best team in baseball top to bottom during the year and they know.
6. People will show up and care in the stands for this one, very tough home situation.
7. Texas has no history to this point and suck on the road in general and in domes.
8. Ron Washington still does coke, good for him but bad for Texas here.

Lee repeats last time out they could win 1-0 or 2-1. If not the rabbits will be loose on the bases for the Rays and they will close this series out tonight. I am a Red Sox fan so I actually want Texas to win, but I cannot see it happening. Any other pitcher than Price I take Texas. Good luck!

So the play is either Tampa Bay or the Under?

Nice write up. Thank you. I didn't say it was any significance but just putting it out there. But I agree the play is Tampa and the under.

Gonna be a great game to watch. Personally rooting for the rangers because I think their offense will give the yanks pitching serious trouble.

Thanks for the stats. I thought overall today TB is more likely and the line price seems reasonable. Good luck
