Anticipation

[tuck321]

Have only looked at 1 game so far
Bieber Minor It looks like Texas
Both starters on 4
Eddings the ump
Minor with Eddings 7.2 innings 1.17 ERA
Shane on 4 ERA 6.52 ERA 38.2 innings
Minor is better on 5 but on 4 3-1 2.82 ERA and limited but good history with ump

 

[tuck321]

Arizona scares the Hell out of me. Hofman had a good start last game. Ray has had terrible problems with that team and it is 7-2 day of the week for Colorado. Will look but a clear desire to stay away. Colorado hates Arizona and will give a good fight here; again

odorizzilooks like top play so far to me, probably laying the stick. Def like tex too, although they have slowed a bit

 

[tuck321]

Maybe. Have not looked yet but Minn power seems to be down a great deal

 

[degenerate007]

Leaning to the royals. It’s always a close contest between these two.

 

[mrpickem]

a lot of value is gone for twins number now at 200 but I do think they still prevail

very surprised HOU catching +125 vs green who they lit up a bit in hou a few weeks back. he has never went over 2 inn and ny pen is good but not as fresh as could be. Valdez has looked good with 2.77 era and 1.17 whip in 39inn, he has however been a bit less on the road with a 1.46 whip in 14 inn. still I think the line is way wrong here and will be on HOU

 

[tuck321]

Make it first half if you play it. Much better Thursday team and currently better bats

 

[tuck321]

Interest in Montas

 

[tuck321]

Maybe Friday or Saturday we can get a win or 2. Maybe

Last 2 times Green opened, @ Cle. 6/9 and @ CWS 6/15, he was followed by Nestor Cortez, who looked strong both outings, going 3 and 5 inn. respectively. He hasn't pitched since then, my guess is that he follows Green today, possible reason for caution.

 

[tuck321]

Last 7 starts as opener going 1 or 2 ininings Green has given up 1 run

 

[tuck321]

Valdez is very good but facing a very hot team at home with a better day of the week just sucks

 

[BJPLAYER]

Hou/Yanks classic pass game. It screams stay away because we are guessing.

 

[mrpickem]

Last 7 starts as opener going 1 or 2 innings Green has given up 1 run

Green has started 5 times this year giving up 3 runs in 7.67 inn

he did pitch Arlil 9th at HOU and took loss in relief BOX

Hou has struggled a bit lately but I love them in this spot.

Gook Luck to All

:cheers3:

 

[mrpickem]

I do like Rangers but Cleveland is hitting well now and TEX has never seen Bieber. Tribe also has the better pen, so I'm questioning my selection here

 

[mrpickem]

rox batters numbers vs Ray are arcade like - 1.071 OPS :baseballfire:

[tuck321]

Will go back and look.
Richard Clayton with Timmons 5.09 ERA
This is on my list
I am looking at Green. I am seeing 10 consecutive starts 2 or lower
last 7 1 run first 3 3 runs

 

[mrpickem]

• 2914 CLE/TEX no score 1st inn* -105

Bieber allowed run in 1st inning: 4-14
Minor allowed run in 1st inning: 3-15

Both teams can rake but both these starter are 1st inn studs

 

[tuck321]

Essentially they are making this a dedication game for Green
it is possible the 10 games were not all starts

 

[tuck321]

In any case I will make any decision on this game after umps

 

[tuck321]

Checked on Robbie on 5 worst rest 4.86. I am optimistic that he will do much better for his team in this spot but watching

 

[tuck321]

Should have mentioned I played Texas first half and game. Tout is pushing under in Dodgers which has some logic based on Bum being on best rest

 

[BJPLAYER]

I looked at lad under. Bum usually pitches in tight low scoring games with the dodgers if memory serves.

 

[tuck321]

Good history. This is a very unusually game for Bieber on 4 but when I looked at killersports I noticed some odd preconditions. Some times the complications never end

 

[tuck321]

Clayton Richard on 4 12.15 ERA lot of this going around

 

[tuck321]

Bumgarner with Demuth 2.43 ERA

 

[peelpub94]

Can someone explain when the Cardinals forgot how to play baseball?

 

[tuck321]

No more top pitchers hurts

 

[Stew Baker]

Out of the 4 pitchers in the Yankee game who DIDN'T give up a home run, Chad Green was the one who pitched the longest. In 2 innings of work, he threw 33 pitches, 22 for strikes, striking out 3. He gave up no runs on 1 hit, lowering his ERA to 6.93.
