ok , just blurbs again today. ...... And I like some favorites today.....
dodgers -- Even if you include the last appearance by Billingsley vs the dbacks , he has impressive numbers against those hitters. And without getting into details there were some extenuating circumstances revolving around that particular game. The Dbacks as a team hit much better against lefties than righties and Billingsley is certainly a quality righty. Meanwhile , the Dodgers have simply beaten the living crap out of edgar gonzalez when they see him and i am getting the feeling that the bats are starting to come around for the dodgers a bit. The dbacks early season rush peaked and i think the dodgers early season slump bottomed.
rockies -- Cook right now is the most consistent guy in the rockies rotation right now. His start at home this year was very impressive and he has good history vs the cubs bats. He is reliable to throw strikes and eat up innings. Very important trait considering the state of the rockies bullpen. Rockies are a different offensive team when they see righthanders and marquis doesnt have the highest quality stuff in the league. The rockies bats historically destroy him and i like colorados chances of bouncing back here with a win
phillies/brewers over 9.5 -- Get two teams that see the opposing pitcher well. Moyer has been knocked about by the brewers and as a general rule the brewers love to see lefties. Get the stuff to junk angle here as well. The brewers just saw Hamels nasty stuff and now they get the soft junk of pre-historic Moyer. Phillies also see suppan well and with that powerful lineup can throw up a crooked number at any time. I like day games for overs as well. Umpire kellogg is historically a neutral umpire in my book but he has started this year with a major lean to the over. 5-0 to the over , more than 8 walks a game , and a strike percentage under 61. Between dogs, favorites , unders and overs ... you will see less overs than anything else from me..... but i like this particular situation
pirates --Gorzelanny > piniero. Pirates starting to regain confidence and the cards are starting to hurt a little as a result of the injuries they started the season with in their starting rotation. Piniero should be long relief. His road starts last year were not impressive and he got slapped in his road start this year as well. Couple that with the fact that the cardinals dont seem to hit lefties anywhere near the way they do righties and i think i got a small edge here at this price. The cardinals lineup has not been the same the last week as what we have seen most of april imho. At some point i expect Gorzelanny to regain the form that most of us expected to see this year. worth the number i am pretty sure.
leans
brewers -- Mentioned some of what i like about them above. also a great home team in general. slight edge in pitching to suppan over moyer in general and a slight edge in the matchup as well. Road trip starting to feel long for the phillies. Enough to lay the chalk though ?
astros -- i like the reds to win but this price is a bit steep i think.
thats what i am looking at so far
