          No, I was in and out all day yesterday.
          I heard Springs was tossing a no-hitter in the fifth inning, but I didn't pay attention.
          Springs is another one of those evil lefties who has been known to baffle many hitters the past few years with off-speed stuff.
          He did go 11-11 across 30 starts last season, pitching for a non-contender (A's) in a Little League Ball park (Sacramento)

          Considering that Yankee annihilates LHP (Judge, Stanton, Bellinger, and Goldy), that's an impressive piece of pitching on Springs part

          Tonight 4/10
          Staying with the LHP theme here.

          Corbin (LHP) vs. Minn.
          Matz (LHP) vs. NYY
          Bubic (LHP) vs. CWS
          Early (LHP) vs. Stl.


          How is Steve Matz still in MLB?
          He had one good season with the Blue Jays, going 14-7, two years back.
          He was so overhyped in New York as a rookie breaking in with the Mets over a decade ago.
          The best season he had pitching for NY was 11-10, after I kept hearing "Matz is the next big thing".
          (Proving the age-old baseball adage, "have left arm, will travel.")
          The problem is, I can't back the Yankees tonight with confidence. Gil's an emergency call-up (yesterday)
          Gil was injured for a good portion of last year, and subsequently was hit hard.
          Gil was only serviceable when healthy anyway.
          PASS

          Passing on the Toronto (Corbin) game.
          Corbin's a 110-142 lifetime hamburger, with an ERA over 4.5
          Twins (Buxton, Jeffers) come to mind, hit LHP well.
          Like the Yankee game, I can't get behind Minnesota's starter (SWR) either
          PASS

          BOSTON +124 (-1.5 run line)

          I love the kid Early for the Red Sox.
          The kid has a filthy left arm, and the Sox sticks are starting to come to life as well.
          Dustin May (St. Louis) couldn't win in Los Angeles, pitching for the Dodgers with all that run support LA produces.
          Sox, on the road, are guaranteed a ninth-inning at-bat (very important when backing a road favorite) and should feast on Dustin May.

          RED SOX +124 (run line) is my play of the night.

            Can't disagree, wicked LHP a huge edge.

              Deuces usually run wild here at Casa de Nasher, especially after I consume one of my world-famous three-egg omelets, which results in Ally banging on my bathroom door screaming, "Yo, Bill (my real name), you ever hear of a courtesy flush, dude? You're killing me out here.

                Denver omelet my favorite.

                The white castle slider affect usually met with an order not a request from the fairer sex.

                Window and fan helps butt in the end a quick exit best for all.

                GL BOSS.

                  Haha that’s a wild combo. Denver omelet is a solid choice though. And yeah, sometimes a quick exit really is the best move for everyone. GL.

                    Damn, I can't get any traction.
                    Win one, lose two, win two, lose one...

                    Oh well, it's a marathon of a grind.

                    4/11
                    Two afternoon totals

                    Philadelphia (H) OVER 8.5 runs Arizona (A) 1*
                    Cincinnati (H) OVER 9 runs LA Angels (A) 1*


                    Split slate today.
                    Seven-day games, seven-night games,
                    The Yankees-Rays game has a funky 6 pm start.

                      A famous verse

                      Sometimes you kiss,

                      sometimes you get kissed.

                      Wish U well in my wishing well

                      You the prey no more.

                      Dropping double nickles.

                        Are you thinking of 'Kick" by INXS?
                        I saw INXS at Irving Plaza in NYC.
                        The band had just started their 20th anniversary tour, and one month later, Michel Hutchence chokes/hanged himself to death


                        "When my back is broken
                        When the mountain moves away
                        All the dreams and promises
                        That we give
                        We give away

                        Sometimes you kick
                        Sometimes you get kicked
                        Sometimes you kick
                        Sometimes you get kicked."

                          My memory close enough for rockin' roll.

                          Punted it out bounds, you got it correct.

                              I aim to please.

                              I had to take yesterday off, I'll be here all week for hardball chat with all the other 'seamheads' like myself.
                              In the meantime, chew on this.

                              This is my favorite band, but I realize the Killers aren't for everybody, and I can respect that, as they're an acquired taste.
                              They've headlined Lollapalooza several times; this, IMO, is their tour de force.
                              The most flattering thing for any band is when thousands in the audience sing the lyrics along with Brandon so that they drown out the band. This, my friend, is what I call respect.

                                Like The Ozark Mountain Daredevils and sour mash,

                                an acquired taste, try it you'll like it.

                                If you don't like The Killers, a possibility of communist ties IMO.

                                  Wagering them individually, the price is steep; when you use the two in a parlay, it cuts into the juice.

                                    It never fails, right around this time on the calendar, when the temperature heats up, so do the sticks.
                                    Three games saw twenty or more total runs (Phily, Yanks, Pirates)
                                    There were 19 total runs in the Sox game, 16 in the O's game, and 12 in the Cleveland game.
                                    Seven games saw double-digit runs scored in a ten-game slate.
                                    Even though Texas only won 8-1, that game went over the 8.5 total, ditto for the Mariners game. The total was 7.5, Mariners won 6-2.
                                    Overs went 9-1 yesterday; the only slackers were the Mets, who got shut out by the Hollywood Dodgers 4-0.

                                    My question to anybody who cares to answer is this?
                                    Was yesterday an anomaly, a one-off, or do the bats continue to remain hot, and the overs continue to cash?
                                    As mentioned, almost every season (nothing is guaranteed, as there is no such thing as a 'lock'), when the weather gets hot, so do the sticks

                                    If you can correctly predict the beginning of a trend right from Jump Street, you could be rich.
                                    I've been saying that for years. I've also qualified that statement by saying the hard part of it all is predicting the onset of a trend.

                                    Takeaways from yesterday's slugfest.
                                    Garrett Crochet gave up 11 runs in an inning and two-thirds.
                                    In the second inning alone, before he was mercifully yanked, Crochet gave up 2 walks, 2 singles, a double, and not one, but two homers. Oh, the humanity.

                                    I've seen enough of Crochet's starts to say this; he has too much talent to get lit up like that from a Twins offense that hits .224, with some pop, but this isn't the 1927 Murderers' Row Yankees, where he has to face Ruth, Gehrig, Meusel, and Lazzari, in order, every other inning. To quote Hank Hill, "That boy ain't right."

                                    The Yankees-Angels game was one of the most insane things I've seen in a very long time.
                                    It had more plot twists than a Dick Wolf crime drama, I tell you what.

                                    Yankees bats stake Will Warren (who's been brilliant early on) to a 4-0 lead after two innings.
                                    Will Warren promptly coughs that up in the fourth, giving up 4 earned runs.
                                    4-4 now the Yankee bats stay hot and go ahead on a three-run jack from Grisham.
                                    7-4 NYY, top of the sixth, Mike Trout hits a three-run rocket, just like he did when he was winning MVP awards hand over fist, to tie it at seven. NYY pushes a run across to make it 8-7, Angels then re-tie that at eight, pick up two more late runs.
                                    10-8, Yanks down two runs, bottom of the ninth, you think you've seen it all in this affair, think again.
                                    This is how the Yanks walk it off in the bottom of the ninth, Grisham ties it again, with his second tater of the game at ten and ten.
                                    Here's the funky part of this whole sordid affair: the Yanks walk it off 11-10 on a double by Caballero, who stole third, then scored on a wild pitch.

                                    Fun game if you're a fan of the long ball, after all, chicks love the long ball (don't ya know), along with Grisham's two ding dongs, sure fire Hall of Famers Mike Trout and Aaron Judge put on a power clinic, as they both smacked 2 HRs each.

                                    I was cautious not to gulp down the Pirates' pre-season Kool Aid, but I was one of the many who thought Pittsburgh was poised to make a run at a playoff spot. Paul Skeenes was brilliant last night, and that Pirate line is sneaky good. They pounded out 16 runs on 16 hits, and they sit on top of the NL Central. Bizzaro world when the favorite Cubs are dead last, and Pitt, like the cheese, stands alone.

                                    Don't sleep on the Padres and the Mariners and give up on them, especially the Mariners.
                                    Their rotation is four-deep with quality arms, and that lineup is too good to keep hitting .200 as a unit.
                                    The sticks have woken up, the pitching remains rock solid, and all of a sudden the M's are in the hunt.

                                    Fun day yesterday if you're a die-hard seamhead.

                                      Funny you point this out,

                                      if i was dangerous,

                                      would have followed dunkel's index totals Monday,

                                      had every game over except sea/hou.

                                      Who knew, today he could go 0-15 with totals,

                                      certainly has some worth to view.

                                      My beer gut feeling is beware.

                                        The Dunkel Index has been around since the beginning of time.
                                        Not for nothing, but don't you think it's a tad cruel that Richard Dunkel Sr. named his kid Dick Jr?
                                        Dick Dunkel must have gotten beaten regularly in school with a name like that.


                                        When I was a kid growing up in NJ, back in the day when your pal Nasher had a full set of hair, and the triceratops grazed my daddy's backyard on grass, we used to get home delivery of the Newark Star Ledger.

                                        The Ledger used to print the Dunkel Index on the weekends (either Friday or Saturday, I can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday, no less what day the Ledger printed the Dunkel Index in 1932), but I digress. As a kid, I loved it; numbers run deep in my family's gene pool, my granddaddy was an electrical whiz, the greatest man that ever lived, my dad was a career military engineer. Me? I'm an IT Operations Analyst who works 90% remote at home these days, yeah, you could say we've cornered the nerd gene market going on five decades now.

                                        To make a long story short, which I am not capable of, as a Little Leaguer and a mathematics enthusiast, the Index caught my eye, I've never seen anything like that, and I followed it until it wasn't syndicated in the paper any longer. By then, mid-80s, I was playing HS baseball, Bill James, Billy Beane, and the rest took sports analytics to the next level, and I was hooked.

                                        As the late, great Paul Harvey used to say when signing off his radiocasts...

                                          That was a great read, honestly didn’t expect a full story behind the Dunkel Index like that. It’s crazy how something from the newspaper days still sticks with you all these years later. Respect for sticking with the numbers from Little League to now, sounds like you were built for the analytics side of sports from the start.

                                            The Ledger used to print the Dunkel Index on the weekends (either Friday or Saturday, I can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday, no less what day the Ledger printed the Dunkel Index in 1932), but I digress. As a kid, I loved it; numbers run deep in my family's gene pool, my granddaddy was an electrical whiz, the greatest man that ever lived, my dad was a career military engineer. Me? I'm an IT Operations Analyst who works 90% remote at home these days, yeah, you could say we've cornered the nerd gene market going on five decades now.

                                            To make a long story short, which I am not capable of, as a Little Leaguer and a mathematics enthusiast, the Index caught my eye, I've never seen anything like that, and I followed it until it wasn't syndicated in the paper any longer. By then, mid-80s, I was playing HS baseball, Bill James, Billy Beane, and the rest took sports analytics to the next level, and I was hooked.

                                            As the late, great Paul Harvey used to say when signing off his radiocasts...
                                            "And now you know the rest of the story."

                                            Went from D. I. in the funny papers,

                                            to the Gold Sheet, no sheet my #'s evolution.

                                            Bought Sun Times everyday until it cost $1 and I stopped buying, as I promised myself.

It’s crazy how something from the newspaper days still sticks with you all these years later. Respect for sticking with the numbers from Little League to now, sounds like you were built for the analytics side of sports from the start.
                                              Thank you for that.
                                              I played ball until my second year in college, then my hip couldn't take much more of squatting behind the plate.

                                              I played D2, not quite good enough or tall enough for D1 ball.
                                              Didn't matter; I just wanted to play ball and get a little education while I was at it.

                                                I could really relate to alot of this. Im mostly retired these days and my hobby is building sports betting models. Its not so much about the money, its about beating the game. Let me give u some numbers of my Formula for baseball totals. (154-112) (57.89%) Winners coming into this season, thats part of the 2024 season, along with the 2025 season. I use it to get the biggest EDGE each day. This season its started (12-6) (66.67%) Winners and I did make a major upgrade to it to make it the most present it can be. In fact the addition , im calling the (PPF) Present Probability Factor. Its going for 5 in a row tonight with the Padres Over 7. As I said, im retired and its a hobby but its something ive done extensive work with.

                                                Always nice to hear from another math nerd.

                                                  Pick 'em

                                                  Razor sharp line IMO.
                                                  The game is in that shoe box in West Sacramento.
                                                  Springs is up against a Texas lineup that hits LHP well.
                                                  Keep an eye on the status of Wyatt Langford if you're considering the Athletics.
                                                  Langford is DTD; he tweaked his quad. Langford has solid power numbers v. LHP.
                                                  If Langford is a no-go, I'd lean A's; if he's good to go, I'd lay off.
                                                  Far from me to tell anybody who to bet, and why, personally, I think the line is a pick for a reason,
                                                  Best of luck with your plays tonight, and beyond.

                                                    They're at it again at the Big Ball Orchard in the South Bronx.
                                                    It's like they're picking up where they left off last night.

                                                    Top of the first, Trout (him again), Adell, and Soler go back to back to back.
                                                    Three consecutive solo shots, two of which were heat-seeking missiles,

                                                    This one has the makings of a barn burner as well.

                                                          Two very impressive streaks are going on.

                                                          Shohei Ohtani extends on-base streak to 50 games in Dodgers' loss

                                                          4/19
