'09 YTD: 10-2, +4.65 units
3 days in...and it's been a very nice start to the new season. In hindsight, i wish i wasn't only playing $50 per game...and beginning things so conservatively. But hey, tuesday was perfect...and i still haven't paid a cent of juice...so definitely no complaints here. Just enjoying it all...and getting that feel for bases again.
Anyhow, ended up getting the time tonight to go over the card after all. Had a ton of strong leans, but i cut it down to (a more reasonable) 4 plays. Missing the cut...wanted to back the Fish RL for the 3rd straight day, liked the cubs/stros under, liked the bucs/cards over, and wanted to take the Twinkie RL...yet i talked myself off those 4 leans. But anyways, these are the 4 that survived...and became plays for Wednesday.
CIN ML (+100) over NYM for a 1/2 unit
Pelfrey vs Volquez
CLE ML (-107) over TX for a 1/2 unit
Carmona vs Padilla
KC/CWS under 8.5 (+103) for a 1/2 unit
Greinke vs Floyd
OAK/LAA over 9 (+100) for a 1/2 unit
Eveland vs Adenhart
And some (very) quick thoughts on these games, fwiw.
Reds are a much improved team this season, and like their bats/lineup against Pelfrey. Also love Volquez...at least for the first half of the year.
We'll see if the Tribe sticks can hit a lick tomorrow. Believe they're much better than they showed against Millwood the other day.
The KC/CWS series is normally full of unders. And the glimpses Greinke's given us, especially last year, make me think this one stays real low.
Lastly, going against the grain in Anaheim. The Oak/LAA series is notorious for unders, as well as 1 run games. With Lackey, Santana, and Escobar on the DL...the Halos have 3 SPs that don't belong...at least yet, in Adenhart's case. Adenhart has stuff...but he also has a knack for breezing thru an inning, then getting into a world of trouble the next. Halos will battle...but just see this as a 1 run game in the end...though one that gets deep into the pens relatively early, especially if the rain comes as forecasted. Anyhow, not a fan of Eveland at all...and tho the Halos don't kill LHPs...they typically beat them, just the same. Anyhow...like how Cahill was in a bit over his head tonight, in terms of pitch count and trouble spots...Adenhart has shown (in his brief stint last year) that he's prone to kinda the same thing. Also noticed that when things begin to go south, he really loses control...and situations spiral on him easily. Comes with inexperience. But that's why i'm against the grain w/ this hova.
Well, short & sweet. Let's hope it keeps going...and GL manana.
