5/30 MLB Plays

39-41, +3123

Bad night last night. One early one today and it is strong.

Tampa Bay +210 over OAKLAND 300/630

Lopez has not regained his early season form but he has not been wild so his problems are more an aberration than a chronic issue. Mulder threw 115 pitches last time out with barely over 50% being strikes and he is really young, so this is a bad spot for him. The D-Rays offense is doing well and they have won 2 of 3. Only Phelps is unavailable out of the Tampa 'pen while Oakland has used everyone besides Rollie Fingers out of their 'pen over the last three days.

I concur Nick, Tampa is a worthy dog in this situation at this price.

Good luck!

 

[Nick Douglas]

Thanks, Tiger. And btw, thanks again for the job you do on recaps.

Got lucky with the D'Rays last night. Cannot take them regardless of line against Mulder. No action.

Adding...

Milwaukee +147 over ST. LOUIS 300/441

Levrault is decent, about comparable with Benes. He will not go much over 100 pitches, but he is passable. The Brewers' pen is rested after a rainout and a complete game in the last four days, and they are great. The Cards have a badly overqorked bullpen and a lineup that is marginally better (if that) in this matchup. Advantage Brewers.

these two plays are a perfect example of dog selection:

you felt strong about both of these, but only one won, and the result is a nice 23% return on money risked. some other times you will lose 2 units, others you will win what, 3, 3 1/2?. math and game selection.

is anybody reading?
