Bouncing two plays off you guys for Monday

[No coincidences]

In a pretty bad slump. Got hung out to dry by Cliff Lee today.

HOU -106: I normally hate fading Garza, but let's face it: the Cubs aren't hitting for him. Norris is on his game, and the Astros are very pesky at the plate. Tempted to take the short home fave here; Astros did open as a slight dog.

KC +158: Very risky, but you talk about a pitching mismatch. Paulino is one of baseball's more unheralded, under-the-radar starters. Kuroda can't get anyone out. Royals have been better on the road than at home, but can I trust them for a full game in the Bronx?

Hammer the under on the mets/pirates game and pound the nats and rangers. Felix is a taller lincecum this year. Flat and no location. He got shelled last game. Darvish will dominate

[HoulihansTX]

KC better on road for sure. Pass on Houston. I need +odds b4 considering them.

Is it true that Felix is barely breaking 90 with his fastball right now? Thought I read that the other day.

I always hate fading the Yankees at home, but this team is a shell of its former self.

I think if we're patient, that + number will come back around on the Stros tomorrow.

Think I like KC here at the price. The run line is always a nice option on the road if the price is right. Thinking $200 +1.5 with $50 on the ML

[face]

yea might play kc runline

why is mets with santana -101 against the pirates? pirates can't hit except for mccutchen, mets have all sorts or scrappy players (wright, baxter, duda, nieuwenhuis)?

I'm leaning the same way as you on both of your plays here. I'm seeing 70% chance of rain in NY though fwiw.

just cos his velocity is down doesnt mean his performance is too.. if youve been watching the games hes actually throwing his fastball less anyway. on top of all that the rangers are being juiced heavily.

i like the royals play, OP. kuroda was throwing BP against the jays and +158 is great value.

[BigPage25]

I can't see the Yankees losing tomorrow... If i were you i would bet the yankees instead of the royals

[vrksayy]

i'm heavy on houston tonight; houston swept the mets weeks back, maybe they'll sweep the cubs.

[CHAZ]

Im with Houli. I don't think I would take Astros if they aren't getting + money.


KC is iffy, I'd be more comfortable with the RL if I had to choose.

If I had to play those games, I agree with you on both. I just don't like them enough to play them myself. Good Luck!

[CappinTerp]

I bet the Cubs, I know they are cold and Norris has the best ERA in the month of May. Garza is good but IMO this line should be higher for Houston but it's a pick'em so I think the Cubs are the side. Best of luck to you.!

[CHAZ]

Great call on KC, Coin

[crackerjack]

Houston isn't as bad as people are making them out to be...they have a better record than four teams in the NL. If you pick your spots right with them, you can get great value. Norris is pitching well and isn't getting noticed. Cubs are playing horribly right now. I hope you made this bet OP...it was one of my favorites of the night.

[CTsharp]

keep bouncing them.
