First plays here. Thought I would just copy and paste from elsewhere. Did pretty good here in the NBA so we'll see:
------------------------------------
Thursday's plays....
KC -110 over Texas
Like this rookie Affeldt. Got good stuff and an ERA of 2.75 for the year. It's early yet this year but it is still almost twice as good as the 5.26 that Burba brings to the mound for Texas. I like the Royals to win here at home.
LA - 130 over Brewers
Ishii missed his last start but shouldn't have any problems. I liked him then and like him now. He rebounds from his only loss to get to 7-1 here. He has a nice 2.70 ERA and it took a gem from the other pitcher to beat him in his loss, a 2-0 game against the Mets. On the other side I'm not a big fan of Rusch. Not saying the lefty can't be effective he can. He's still mostly a finesse type pitcher and I think the Dodgers can score on him tomorrow. LA has won 6 of the last 8 meetings and have a good chance at number 7 tomorrow. Both Ishii and the Dodgers.
Reds -160 over Marlins
Reds are another team that is finding a way to win. They are 12-3 in their last 15 home games. Hate to even waste much time posting any kind of comparison between Rijo and Tavarez. I will post this one though. Rijo has given up 17 earned runs in 39.1 innings, Tavarez has given up 28 earned runs in 22.2 innings. That's how you get an ERA of 11.12. Give me the Reds at home against Tavarez at -160 and I'll buy the beer anytime. Play this one for two units.
Be back if I see anything else. Good luck and lets enjoy a full day of baseball!!
