It wasn't a bad play, had several chances to get a 4th run in the game.

Saturday afternoon underdog
Reds (Finnegan) over Cards (Wainwright)
Cards -146
Reds +136
Total (7)
Like this game for several reasons.
I liked this game before the line movement.
Explain to me how the Cardinals opened up as a -179/+169 favorite and now the game is sitting at -146/+136?
With a name brand pitcher like Wainwright against a non-proven former relief pitcher like Finnegan, against an 0 and 4 team on the road in that cathedral that they call Bush?
Hmmm.
Johnny Cardinal fan must be foaming at the mouth to get some juicy Cardinal action as he rushes to the betting window.
We all know about Wainwright, once elite, got hurt tore the Achilles, missed all of last season, started this looking terrible against Pit, than last week against the Braves got hammered and walked the park.
Finnegan was a part of the 2014 world series Royals, then came over last year in the Cuetto deal.
Reds weren't dealing Cueto without Finnegan in the package, that's how valued he is.
Converted reliever, looks like the conversion to starter is smooth (so far)
First two starts this year he had a no hitter through six against the Cubs and last week he shut down the Phils.
14 K's in 12 innings so far this year, former first round pick of the Royals, All American out of TCU, throws left, throws two out of three sliders (66.7%) one of the hardest pitches to hit in the majors in a slider from the left handed pitcher, has good command of it. Mixes in curves and a 4 seam fast ball that tops out at 97 mph.
Drafted him in the 23rd round this year myself, I had him targeted.
Reds as a very live underdog goes for 2*
200 gets 272
Hit my last play (KC +117) 3* for 351 return
Currently 10 and 5,
+1731
Not a slam dunk by any stretch, but like the price a lot here.
Best of luck.

I was thinking of taking him in DFS, so many high priced aces going. He is solid, I like the play

Well that was easy.
(Not)
That Reds bullpen blows donkey kong.
Not one of my prettier wins, but I'll cash it with a smile.
OK, that brings me to 11 and 5.
+ 2003 for the season.

Just wanted to say thanks for all your work and write ups! Been following you and you're a gun!
Nice hit on the plays previously and future plays that will hit.bWill be a long time follower!!
What do you think about the rest of the games tonight? Does any of them strike your eye?
Nationals vs Phillies - You reckon Nationals have this down pat?
Brewers vs Pirates - I was thinking of getting in the Brewers what do you think?

Really thinking of backing Cashner again.
Even money is more than fair.
Not a posted play, yet.

Thanks, not exactly the way I handicapped though.
But the bottom line is the bottom line.
Let me look at Cashner game again.

I've always been a Verlander fan, but I don't trust him anymore.
Even if he spins a gem through 5 or 6 innings, he'll shit the bet.
But the + money is tempting, both teams can rake.

SD -112 over Arizona (4/16 night game)
Cashner's last start was pretty good, little rocky in spots, but looked pretty good.
Meanwhile Shelby Miller got rocked in this last two, and just looks God Awful.
Not only that, with the loss of Pollock, the dynamics of that Snake line up has changed, you really don't have to pitch to Goldy as often.
Very reasonable line at -112, SD's park is a grave yard, can't see Cash getting taken deep tonight.
2* on the Pads
-1112

This *huge* drop in the price is making me very uneasy.
Virtually 15 minutes after I lay -112, line moves to -101
And I am baffled

Pads knocked Shelby Miller out of the game.
Snakes go to the 'pen in the second inning.
