Should I lay money on the Blue Jays with McCarthy now out, Cardinals or Braves even with Dempster on the mound for the Cubs?
Feedback is appreciated.
Thanks

That kid Parker for the A' has been lights out in his first two starts. Held Boston to 4 hits in Fenway. Shows good command and a slight FB bias so far. In Oakland that is a good thing. Jays have never seen him.
Randal Delgado is the lesser of the two starters by a good bit tonight in Chicago and like I previously mentioned I stay away from wagering on teams that just hit the cover off the ball in Coors Field.
Ian Kennedy is not someone I would want to fade at home without good reason. The Cards did hit him hard in Arizona once last year but a lot of that damage was done by players now departed. Lance Berkman is not in today's lineup for the Cards. Westbrook shows a rather large ground ball bias which is an advantage in that park and that shows in Arizona's stats against him. Mostly singles not a heavy OPS.
Of the three St. Louis shows the most value. The D-Backs have not played particularly well of late but fading Kennedy at home always carries more risk than reward. There is a total of 5 available for the first 5 at reasonable cost. The under is worth a look here.
