Broke even last night. Seattle tied the game late to force extras, takes the lead only to give it up. Once Putz came in the game I thought I was home free. Stepping out tonight to try to make some headway. All favs, so that makes nervous:
Atl -125: Wanted to take the dog here with the pitcher with better stats to date. Decided to go with Hudson thinking Volquez is in for a let-down. Hudson is 2-0 at home.
Ariz -125: This was an easier choice. Maine on the road (+5 era)has been iffy and D'backs can put up runs.....hitting .300 at home.
Stl -115: Taking the home cooking with the Cards. Wainwright should keep his team in the game if he bullpen can do its job. Cubs are only 6-5 on the road.
NYY -1.5 +160: Wang is consistenly good despite an era +5 at home. Bedard is due for a bad outing and I'm betting tonight is it. Taking RL as Mariners having trouble getting runs lf late.
Det -1.5 +110: Tigers have hit thier stride. Livan threw up lollypops last time out vs Texas and I think Detroit is all over him early and often. Gallaraga has been impressive so far.
GL to all and comments are always welcome.
