Sounds great.

6.1.12: Nationals Team Total Over 4 [-115]
Good match-up here against Mike Minor who is really struggling. Minor has given up four earned runs or more in six straight starts and has a road ERA of 7.27. The Nationals got him for four runs in his last start. The opposition has scored at least four runs in seven of his ten starts. Washington scored seven runs or better in each game of a three game series with ATL on the road earlier in the week.

I love this pick....I'm on it as well.

abe74 · 06-01-12, 05:53 PM

Looks like the Braves-Nats game just got postponed. Will look out in case you have any other plays tonight.

crackerjack · 06-01-12, 05:57 PM

Guess I'm starting the night off 0-0-1! What else you got EP?

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 06:10 PM

Actually, hang loose - might have one.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 06:30 PM

6.1.12: Pirates Team Total Over 4 [-110]
Randy Wolf goes for Milwaukee. He hasn't pitched overly poorly lately, but between him and the bullpen - the opposition has scored at least four runs in nine of his ten starts. He has given up at least three runs in eight of those ten. Watch out for Pedro Alvarez & Neil Walker tonight. Pedro has bopped a couple dingers off Wolf and Walker has 4 hits in 13 ABs off Wolf, all doubles.

blanda · 06-01-12, 08:23 PM

Hey Eagles - Any chance that the Cubs can put up four tonight??

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 08:58 PM

Pretty unlikely on the road against Bumgarner I would think.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 08:59 PM

Pirates did it up real nice. If Minor stays on track to start tomorrow, will play the Nats total we missed out on today.

2012 Record: 15-7-2 [+7.95]

blanda · 06-01-12, 08:59 PM

Thanks...do you like any late stuff?

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 09:03 PM

Rangers Over 4.5 might be worth a roll. They own Williams.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-02-12, 01:19 PM

6.2.12: Rockies Team Total Over 5 [-135]
Rockies have scored five or more in nine of their last ten and have an impressive run of three straight double digit scoring games. Harang goes for LA. His Coors Field ERA is 6.40 and he gave up five runs earlier this year in a start on the road against the Rockies. Dodgers have given up six or more in three straight.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-02-12, 05:42 PM

Not looking good today. Rockies had the bases loaded in the 5th and didn't get squat and haven't done much outside of that.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-03-12, 11:36 AM

2012 Record: 15-8-2 [+6.60]

6.3.12: Reds Team Total Over 4.5 [-120]
Reds get their 2nd crack against Jordan Lyles this season. Lyles limited Cincy to three runs over six innings, but the Reds wound up scoring three more off the bullpen en route to a 6-5 win. In three of Lyles' four starts, the opposition has put up at least six runs by the end of the game. Lyles has had trouble going deep in games and that could be a recipe for runs today with the Houston bullpen taxed lately and having a 5.03 ERA in their last five. Houston has allowed at least five runs in seven of their last eight, while the Reds have tallied at least five in three of the five meetings with the Astros this season. Lyles also comes in having given up 12 runs in his last two starts.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-04-12, 06:04 AM

Couple of crappy days. Time to get back on track.

2012 Record: 15-9-2 [+5.40]

EaglesPhan36 · 06-05-12, 02:05 PM

6.5.12: Tigers Team Total Over 4.5 [-115]
Tigers get a shot at Ubaldo Jimenez. His road era is 9.00. In five road starts, the opposition has scored SEVEN or better in four of five. He gave up three in his only to start to Detroit this season, but that was at home. At Comerica, he is 0-4 with a 9.78 ERA in four career starts. Cleveland has given up five runs or more in eight of their last ten. If they get to Ubaldo early, they get a shot at the bullpen which has a 5.00 road ERA.

Agreed

EaglesPhan36 · 06-05-12, 08:49 PM

Still slumping. Ubaldo pitches a great game.

taxe91 · 06-06-12, 07:34 AM

any thoughts with the Angels and Rangers team totals both being set at 4.0 against mediocre pitchers?

keeping in mind that the Rangers are the away team so they'll get the full 9 innings to hit

2012 Record: 15-10-2 [+4.25]

6.6.12: Royals Team Total Over 4.5 [-120]
Blackburn off the DL for the Twins. He was terrible before going on it, giving up five runs or better in five of his seven starts. The opposition scored at least five runs in six of his seven starts overall. 4.82 ERA against KC, lifetime 5.26 ERA @ Kauffman Stadium.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-06-12, 09:01 PM

Jut for scuz.

6.6.12: Rangers Team Total Over 4 [-120]

I was just looking at it... nailed it in after just cashing the 2nd quarter over 50.5 in Spurs game, LETS GET THIS

EaglesPhan36 · 06-06-12, 09:09 PM

Colon has been terrible @ home, so hopefully it at least pushes. Need to find some footing here, been slumping with these plays. KC missing some opps tonight after starting fast.

ThaTopMoron · 06-06-12, 09:36 PM

Mitch with a double play to kill 2nd inning

taxe91 · 06-06-12, 09:40 PM

that wont be the last time the rangers get men on base against colon. best case scenario here is the athletics bring home cespedes here to give texas a little wake up call

EaglesPhan36 · 06-06-12, 09:40 PM

Yeah F that asshole. That should have been a spot where we got half what we needed.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-06-12, 10:19 PM

I'm blaming that Nationals rainout for throwing off my chi last week. Since then, pretty crappy results. Was weighing Angels or Rangers tonight and chose the wrong one again apparently.

6.7.12: Mets Team Total Over 4 [-115]
Mets gets a shot at Wang who is still building stamina in his 1st starts back. He has failed to last more than four innings in either start so far. He gave up four runs in his most recent start @ Miami. Both starts have seen the opposition post four runs or better. Mets have scored four or more in eight of their last nine.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-07-12, 03:17 PM

Cannot break this shit streak. Runner on 3rd in the 9th and couldn't get it home to even get a pish. Fawwwwwwwwwk.

crackerjack · 06-07-12, 03:24 PM

Sorry...real slump you're in right now with team totals. I have agreed with all your picks but for whatever reason you just aren't hitting right now. What do you like tonight...you're due

Mriceyman · 06-07-12, 04:14 PM

I thought it was golden also... need a big one tonite

EaglesPhan36 · 06-07-12, 05:04 PM

To stay out of the red and if this fails, well FML.

6.7.12: Orioles Team Total Over 4 [-105]
O's against Buchholz who they have already tagged for five runs in each of the two times they faced him. Buccholz has also given up at least four runs in five of six starts @ Fenway Park this season.
