2-1 Yesterday. Not a great title today. Nothing really to say. But I do know that this card is the best card I have seen in a long while. I will tell you that right now. With that said. So... Anyway, on to today.
Braves/Marlins Over 10 -120
Risking $240 to win $200
How can you say no to a play like this? Both teams are pounding the ball lately. And they don't look like cooling down anytime soon. The Braves got 7 runs yesterday without Kelly Johnson, and Brian McCann in the lineup, which is really saying somthing. We all know how Redman has been this season. He has pitched a little better then Jeff Weaver. lol. He is 0-3, pitching 15.2 innings, giving up 22 hits, a 1.72 WHIP, and an ERA of 8.62. When I first saw Vanden Hurk pitch, against the Brewers, I thought he was impressive. But then I realized, that the Brewers had a bad hitting night. The Mets just absolutley powered him, which you would expect, and now the Braves will try to match their rivals and pound even more on this kid. He is 0-1, his team being 0-2, pitching 8.2 innings, giving up 12 hits, a 1.92 WHIP, and an ERA of 9.35. Also...Florida hits better against Lefties then righties so far this season, which is even better for this matchup. And one more thing. When the Fish played the Braves earlier this season, and Redman was on the mound, they crushed him in 2.2 innings. They got 6 hits, and 7 runs. Enough Said.

Risking $208 to win $200
Bonderman v a pitcher coming off a little injury. Not a bad decision. The Tigers, I'll admit, aren't that hot right now, but should be able to handle the Halos and Escobar. Bonderman has not had an official win/loss this season, but his team is 1-2. He pitched 22 innings, gave up 16 hits, a 0.77 WHIP, and an ERA of 1.64. While Escobar is 1-1, pitched 11.1 innings, gave up 11 hits, a 1.50 WHIP, and an ERA of 3.18. Not great stats by both pitchers, but I do not have the heart to take the under. Good spot here for Bonderman to get his first decision of the season. And that decision being a WIN.
Cubs -155
Risking $155 to win $150
Not to much on this one. I'm just going to ride this "Hill Trend" until it dies. He is pitching like a CY Youn winner right now. He is unhitable. 22 innings, 8 hits, and a WHIP and ERA both less then 1. And the Cubs have been supporting him with runs. Not that much of an explaination here.
Yankees -135
Risking $135 to win $100
Not much on this one either. But I'm liking it because, Matsui will be back in his groove after warming up yesterday, Damon will be back to his leadoff spot, so that means no Melky and his bad hitting. And now Wang will be back on the mound. This is 1 pitcher that I don't see fading when he comes back. I just have this feeling he will be just like he was when he left. Maybe it is just my inner fan talking, but we'll find out tonight.
Twins ML -220
Risking $440 to win $200
I know this price is rediculous, but this is Johan Santana at HOME v Carmona. Enough Said.
Chi.Sox -150
Risking $450 to win $300
Now I'll be fading a pitcher making his first start of the season. I never really lkes Brian Bannister's stuff when he was with the Mets, and expect him to be just as bad with a worse lineup behind him. The Chi.Sox are a powerful team. They have been hitting very well lately, and got to the Royals bullpen easily last night. This should be a real easy win if Vazquez can keep up the great work. As he is 2-0, while his team has won all 3 starts, pitched 18 innings, gave up 13 hits, a 1.17 WHIP, and an ERA of 2.50. Expect the Chi.Sox to knock out Bannister early, and crush their bullpen as well.
Padres +142
Risking $200 to win $284
Explain to me how Randy Johnson, a guy who got beat up early and offten while in New York, is a heavy favorite to a hard hitting team like the Padres who has the best bullpen in the MLB, after coming off an injury? Now I know Wells hasn't been good this season, but should be good for 5-6 innings giving up 3-4 runs. I'm not saying he'll be good what-so-ever, but I expect the Pads to put up a 7 spot today on the D-Backs in Johnson's return to the team. I know it will be an emotional return, but it was an emotional return for Andy Pettite to New York, but that didn't get him the win now did it? Pads should not be this big of an underdog ever this whole season. End Of Story.
BOL All. Have A Great Day.
