Clubbin' with Rasual Butler
April: 91-69-3 +29.126 Units
May: 112-109-1 +17.898 Units
June: 0-0
Overall: 203-178-4 +47.024 Units
Sides: 122-103 +28.723 Units
Run Lines: 13-34 -28.565 Units
Totals: 69-41-4 +46.866 Units
Wednesday went 2-6 -2.37 Units, minimal damage for such a poor day
Thursday went 0-2 -3.30 Units.
2-8 -5.67 Units last two days
For June I will try to limit myself to fewer plays, obviously I went overboard in May. Went 56.88% in April to 50.68% and played 61 more games in May, that's not efficient by any means. I've got to cut down on the plays and it'll be hard for me especially with days that have games all day. Even if I did profit in May I feel I could've done a lot better and there is always room for improvement.
Friday has lots of heavy favorites, maybe one of them is bound to lose.
Leans:
Atlanta Braves @ Chicago Cubs OVER ???
Atlanta Braves +157 (Zambrano v. Davies)
This should make Trout happy.
Z has been getting rocked at home and in his last start lost some velocity on his fastball, even though he located pretty well. Not a good thing for a fastball pitcher ya think? Of course he didn't give up big hits to the Dodgers, they're near the bottom of the league in HRs hit. At this price I think the Braves are worth a shot, even with Davies on the mound. He is unpreditable himself and with the wind blowing out slighty there may be a couple of HRs to help an over out. The Braves just also seem to have the Cubs number and Z @ home always seems to equal overs.
*Blanco will play.
Los Angeles Dodgers -142 (Wolf v. Duke)
Only Wolf's 3rd start on the road but he has good #'s vs. the Pirates, the Dodgers can hit lefties (5-1 v Lefties on the road), what more do you want. He faced the Pirates earlier this year and just owned them. I'm sure they expect to take atleast 2/3 so better start off right. Pirates only 10-16 @ home, but are 6-5 vs Lefties @ home. The Pirates are suddenly cold again after facing some real pitching.
San Diego Padres @ Washington Nationals UNDER 7 +111 (Peavy v. Chico)
Chico's pitchs much better at home. He's not a guy that will give you 7 innings but he has been reliable and his walks are way down from earlier in the year. Peavy has just been dominant against everyone. He should remember his 3 ERs allowed in 7 IP when he faced the Nats earlier and want revenge for not having 0 or 1 ERs. He's Jake Peavy. Padres are on fire but they just put up 9, they won't do that again.
LosAngeles Angels RL +124 (Lackey v. Cabrera)
This is basically a lean because of what's going on in tonight's game. O's win means the Angels will definitely going for the win Friday. Cabrera is some how 2-1 vs the Angels but he definitely got some run support in those games to have a 5.32 ERA, 1.68 WHIP, and the Angels hit .292 against him. Lackey has been fantastic all year and returns home for only his 4th start. He should be primed and ready to go for a solid victory.
Minnesota Twins +119 (Slowey v. Kennedy)
Taking the rook on the road in his first start? The Twins tend to be correct about their pitching prospects and I like how they are playing right now and their bats are hot. I know some of these rookies getting called up from Triple AAA haven't performed so well but I will put his stats up here anyways.
Slowey: 6-2 in 9 starts with a 1.54 ERA in 64 1/3 IP, he has only walked 5 and struck out 57. That just looks nasty. He reminds the Twins a lot of a guy they kept around for a long time who knew how to pitch, Brad Radke. Won't overpower but will fool you with his pitches with great control.
Kennedy struggled his last game and although has pitched pretty well he just has not gotten the run support he needs to win. I expect to see some rust from Kotsays return and Ellis may play with a bad thumb. Bradley only his 2nd game back but did go 2/4 in his return.
