Satyr
Paster of Muppets
Satyrdays used to be so profitable. I took last Satyrday off, and I need this one to bail me out from the worst streak I've EVER come across since I started betting in an organized frame.
Coming off another 1-3 day. Pointless in even writing long rants about it. The pointless thing is, I went 6-2 when my leans are concerned.
Just a regular note: buyer beware. I am in a losing streak, and chances are, you would make more money fading me than tailing me. The only question is, one of these days I'll break out of this funk and go on a tear again. You can't say when really.
Won't update my record yet. Too scared. lol.
Anyways, keeping it up.
Blue Jays (Marcum) ML (1.52 @ Pinnacle) 8 units
Ok Speigner had one good start, beat Santana, but this guy is still 2-2, 7.79 ERA and went 0-2 with a 14.44 ERA in his first four starts.
Slim chances he will contain a surging offense like the Blue Jays one; Toronto is 4-2 in last 6 games, averaging 6.0 RPG in the span. The Nats had their fun, they are 5-2 on their current nine-game road trip. Time to get shelled again if you ask me.
Marcum is 3-2, 3.53 ERA this year, and the team is 5-0 in his last 5 starts. Coincidentally, all those wins sans the one over Philly (13-2) have been 1 run wins. However, we're talking mostly AL teams like CWS, NYY, BAL, plus the one against the Dodgers.
The Nats are something else. And the offense is finally clicking, they've been erratic as they can be this year, but I've seen a few of their games during the run and I think they might be ready to leapfrog over the .500 and stay there, finally.
Athletics (Di Nardo) RL (2.26 @ Pinnacle) 5 units
Going on the A's again, RL is tempting, unlike the Jays' RL price. They broke out last night and tore the Cards apart. Perhaps they don't have to score 14 tonight (hard to expect they will) but I do think they can score at least 5. We're talking a depleted pitching rotation and a worn out pen that even had to feature Scott Spiezio last night. Todd Wellemeyer is 2-1, 7.18 ERA, he did beat the Angels last time out but the A's are something else at the moment, these guys are hitting the ball, and their pitching has been outstanding.
Lenny Di Nardo (2-2, 1.22 ERA) was doubted when he was promoted to a starter, but this guy has shown nothing but consistency, allowing only one earned run and 10 hits in three starts, spanning 17 1-3 innings.
We've seen the A's win their games in all possible ways, 1:0, 3:2 in extra innings, or scoring 14 like last night, these guys are hot and I don't see them stopping.
The Cards are a poor interleague team, their pitching is hurting, regardless if we're talking about starting pitching or pen, and their offense, even if it's above average, cannot hold them in games against superior opposition.
I might add one or two more later on, even though it would be better if I didn't. .
