The point is 1.93 means 3 runs in 14 innings. 5 runs in 14 innings would be the same as with stassi —-the sample size is literally useless you can’t conclude a damn thing based on it. 2 or 3 extra grounders getting past infielders could be the difference between a 1.93 and a 3.4 with Maldonado in a 14 inning sample.

I'm not understanding why Rodriguez is listed as a home dog. Only thing I can see is no Posey, and D Rod has better numbers with Posey but who doesnt? I think there's some value here, this kid can really deal. This will be the 2nd time the Dbacks see him, last time he shut them out through 6 in Zona. Maybe there's some worry there?

I hope you just ignore and don't bail. Both of you are quality posters. But don't hurt the forum by taking off.

Other than the Cardinals offense can anyone see a reason not to play under 4 for First 5?

Kintzler is pretty damn bad. Joe threw in the towel. Pretty amazing to give up 4 to the Mets after they had 2 outs and none on.

Do they have a legit trend on the Yankees?
It’s kind of weird. I said if the white Sox won I’d probably bet them again but now that they lost, I don’t think there’s any way I can back them today.

Losing an under becaus of Jose Reyes might do it for me for Wrigley totals this year. They take years of my life every time. (I say this knowing the Cubs are about to go on the longest road trip of the season)

That’s what I’m saying. If they don’t get healthy soon, the Indians are gonna give that second seed a legit run. That bottom of the yanks order is the worst in baseball right now. And they can be more agro with Stanton who’s not a great contact hitter to begin with.

I think Tuck is correct at using catchers. Tonight, Rodriguez is consistant across all splits and rest. He has had a quarter of his starts with Hundley and era almost 2 runs higher. Posey's loss is felt by all the pitchers.

Godley is playable cause its night and because he is not on 5

Not all those who wander are lost
Not going anyway. Weird day Had a lot on Boston since I knew Price would pitch well. Well thats fine. Texas looks bad. Lost first half under in Reds game but won Reds first half. Very soon will start rooting for Cards after the under is in. Had a bet with Boston rl with Houston so mostly good and a very small bet on Baltimore. Tiny bet on Padres first half. I told people betting Price to score first it was a good bet. Well it figured to be. Always look to bet Boston on big days

Completely agree, I hate myself betting on him to pitch well
