3-0 sunday, 7-4 since resumed posting, +2.98 units
under 8 AT/Pitt -109
under 9.5 Det/Cle -111
Oak -1.5 +102
we have that good Leftie matchup at Cleve that works nice for unders. Maroth has more determination since break (but same poor run support), under 3-0 for him last three and 7-3 on road for the season. Those Cleve bats seemed to have calmed down.
AT/Pitt---from mlb.com's "probables" report:
"Wright has a Major League-best 1.81 ERA in evening games and in four July starts has posted a 1.38 ERA.
Benson has been outstanding in his last seven starts, posting a 4-1 mark and a 2.36 ERA while tossing at least seven innings an outing."
--and Benson 1.88 era last five starts
from covers trends:
Atlanta Braves @ Pittsburgh Pirates
Under is 5-1 in the last six meetings.
Under is 10-1-1 in ATL last 12 overall.
Under is 7-2-1 in Benson's last 10 starts.
Under is 8-3-1 in PIT last 11 overall.
Zito been alternating between good and bad starts like a rookie, and owns Seattle at home last few seasons. Blackey back on road...
probably parlay Hous and NYY later, and still thinking over that Baltimore dog--with Pedro's trouble there and Boston letdown. But a determined Pedro gunning for payback is pretty scary!
good luck everyone!
