YTD: 0-0, +/- 0.00

Sunday:

4/5/2015 8:05 PM MLB Baseball 997 St. Louis Cardinals* Over 2½ -157 vs Chicago Cubs
*I don't know about you, but when I hear the term "dead arm" being tossed around, doesn't really inspire me with a bunch of confidence. Add to that the fact that LHB hit Lester at a better clip last season than did RHB (.258 vs .230), and things start to look up from a Cardinals perspective on offense. As for the aforementioned Cards, didn't exactly set the world on fire during Spring Training, but it is what it is. Having said that, the hitters should come in with confidence knowing this is a pitching staff they had success against last season (an average of 4.89 runs per game in 2014, including 3.89 at Wrigley). Plus, you look at Wainwright's run support against the Cubs the past few seasons (5.60 in five starts last season, 6.00 his L5 starts at Wrigley, 5.7 his L10 overall) and it's kind of hard not to make a compelling case for the team total here.

Anyways, as far as the juiced total goes, I've decided to take a page out of my friend bloodhound's play book here, and not be so afraid to drink the juice from time to time this season. And, meh, it's opening night - I'd just as soon play for a win as opposed to a push.

Tuesday:

4/7/2015 7:10 PM MLB Baseball 961 Baltimore Orioles* Over 3½ -105 vs Tampa Bay Rays
*Looking through Nathan Karns' previous starts in the majors (5 GS, 24.0 IP, 24 H, 16 ER, 10 BB, 8 HR), as well as his numbers at 'AAA' Durham last season (5.08 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, 16 HR), kind of hard to picture it getting much better against a team that can mash like the O's, especially with Chris Davis back in the fold tonight. Also doesn't hurt that the O's have put up 4 or more in 7 of Chen's last 8 starts against the Rays (3-1 at the Dome).

4/9/2015 1:05 PM MLB Baseball 953 New York Mets/Washington Nationals* Under 6½ -125
4/9/2015 2:10 PM MLB Baseball 959 Chicago White Sox* +1½ -165 vs Kansas City Royals
4/9/2015 2:10 PM MLB Baseball 959 Chicago White Sox* Over 3½ -120 vs Kansas City Royals
*Pretty much never play the handicap, but I think this one warrants it: John Danks with 16 lifetime starts against the Royals, Sox 10-6 in those starts, and all six losses decided by one run. Throw in Danks lifetime numbers against the Royals (7-0, 2.43 ERA Overall; 4-0 1.73 ERA @ Kaufmann), and one would think the Sox should be in this one right up until the end. Only bugaboo is that Danks had a poor spring but, at the same time, Edinson Volquez was even worse with twice the workload, so pretty much a wash there. As for the Nats total, these pitching duels oftentimes have an annoying tendency to turn into runfests, but given the lack of hitting to this point in the series, not so sure that happens in this instance (at least I hope not...)

*Tanaka's final start of last season, when it started to become increasingly clear he was going to need surgery at some point was against, surprise surprise, the Sox: 1.2 IP, 7 H, 5 ER, 2 BB. Based on what I saw against the Jays on opening day, this one should go about the same...

*Think after three seasons of posting baseball here, pretty much everyone knows I can't help myself when it comes to Dickey (all it takes is that one inning when the wind shifts...) As for Oakland, Kazmir's been dominant since the start of the spring, so no reason to think it doesn't carry over into this start as well.
