Glad I passed on CWS game 1 (although at that price they were a good play, can’t help blowing a 2 run lead in bottom the 9th), only reason I stayed off was I don’t like kopech as a starter, this price on Cease is really tempting. Chisox have managed a few runs both times they have faced McClanahan, I think cease can out pitch him for 5 innings so maybe Ff the play here?
 
I think I gotta see manoah look right before backing him again, last time out he hit a guy, gave up a hit, walked 2 including a run home before he even got a out, I can’t stomach any more that bs, less Twinkies and more work maybe?!?!

Cole has been insane to start the year, I’ve tried facing him in the past plenty but he just too good right now. Jays did get to him some last year but he pitching out his mind, I almost want to back yanks here but we see if I can find some dogs I like 1st.
 
The cardinals are gonna struggle to score again 2marro, they priced seattle closer to right in this one tho. Mikolas will prob be ok in this park so maybe a Ff under but I could also get behind seattle in one way or another. Castillo should carve us up, if his k prop came 5.5 I’d prob hit that over. 3 total hits for cards in game 1 and I don’t expect it to be much better here.
 
I don’t wanna keep leaning favs but I think dodgers are worth a look, that a pretty cheap price for May, I’m not real sold on Wesneski, he spins some ball over the plate guys can do damage too, I’d think dodgers get to him.

I doubt Manoah gets it right today, hope he does of course. Lean ff over. Think Jays will get 2+ ff vs Cole.
 
Guys I’m in a fantasy league where you can only start one SP a day. Today’s options are weak. Who would you start Whitlock or Wesneski?

Bank you’d go Whitlock?
 
yanks Ff -.5, couldn’t resist, manoah has to prove it to me, I’m sure he probably be great and I was just one game early last time but Cole been so good I don’t think yanks gotta score more than 1-2 runs to cash this. When a guy like manoah struggling to throw strikes you gotta wonder if he catches too much plate and gets taken yard.

Lad Ff ml., just a big pitching mismatch for a cheap price.

Cesse ov 5.5 k’s. Surprised this got bet down, I was thinking bout playing him ov6.5 at plus money. Not much capping to this, anytime you can get a guy capable of mowing down 10+ you take this number.

I’ll have more later just wanted to get yanks and lag in and saw cease price went down. I’ll go back across and have more plays in a little bit.,
 
i considered waiting and seeing a few manoah pitches to see if he finishing them or not but didn’t really want to sit at casino till gane started and he pitches at bottom the inning. If you have that optiom to bet live maybe it be smarter to see if manoah figured it out yet., I’m just rolling the dice
 
Dodgers line just keeps shrinking, I get it I suppose, I been on the cubs A few times playing lad but this a huge pitching mismatch, I never been the biggest May fan but the guy is good and he has gotten away from being a pure sinker baller, mixing in more 4 seamers than years past, it hasn’t shown in the results up to this point but I do believe it should lead to him getting more swings and misses. The weather looks rather nasty in Chicago, maybe that a issue? I’m not sure. I could def see cubs winning late long as wesneski keeps the game close but this price tag for the 1st 5 innings is a must bet for me. Even if I actually like the cubs lineup better than dodgers 1 thru 9, I still like May’s chances better than Wesneski’s.
 
Of course manoah figured it out today. I knew it would happen. Ff under was the play i guess, I sure thought yanks get 1 run but then again the bottom half their lineup is pretty garbage.
 
yep ATL is good again, hard to fade them without a decent price tag even if it's QS Framber

Framber getting plus so tempting. I thought houston could win the 1st 2 of this series but I’m not super excited to play against Braves.
 
The ol' bases loaded DP against a struggling pitcher is inexcusable

I actually get less annoyed by that than I do guys striking out with runners in scoring position less than 2 outs. You would obviously prefer they elevated the ball but making contact doesn’t piss me off quite as much.
 
Pads price is pretty redic for musgrove 1st start. He has been really good at zona but Kelly has very good number vs pads as well. -150 seems high
 
Why would the Jays not let Manoah face 7,8,9 at 85 pitches looking dominant today. Told my buddy right away Garcia is going to mess it up. And he did! I didn’t bet on the games just a die hard Jays fan.

not many guys are going to 100 pitches i've noticed
 
Make sure you know he bet on Cesse for the White Sox and not Cessa for the Reds

Not sure if you got that confused

Yea my bad I was typing that while driving. No interest in cesse. Sorry for confusion but 5.5 shoulda tipped him off.
