am hot in bases right now...thankfully cuz my NFL is trash....I see a lot of games I like tomorrow...here are my plays.
Florida -135, Under 8.5, Parlay
Beckett again. Plenty of rest since his last start. Will take the chance that he comes out slinging. Like the chance that the fish win vs. the Expos. If the spos are to win, they will get a great pitching performance out of Thurmond most likely because I just don't see Beckett getting rocked. If Thurmond goes strong and the spos win, the under will help limit your losses and I would recommend play the under at 1.5 units. Expos offense is anemic and not any better than the cubs was. Could score big on this play.
1.35 Florida for 1.0
1.65 Under 8.5 for 1.5
1.0 Parlay for 2.2
Phillies +118
Robert Person is 5-0 in his last 6 starts with a microscopic ERA while the Braves' Burkett is struggling. The dogs on the road are in a must win game 3.5 back with Maddux and Glavine to follow. Look for Bowa to do whatever it takes to get this win. With these starting pitchers, Person is definitely the favorite. Phil's offense is starting to show signs of life once again and I am afraid that Burkett's arm might be getting tired. He hasn't thrown this many innings in a while and he is getting up there.
Phillies 2 UNIT play
2 for 2.36
Anaheim +140
I like the Angels. Especially with Sele struggling and the Mariner's lineup is showing signs of wearing down. Angel's almost rallied last night if not for a great catch in the 9th. Garcia is so hot that I think the bats were happy to see Rhodes in the ninth and will be happier to see the meat that Sele has been throwing lately tomorrow. Getting +140 at home, after a home loss, against a tired bullpen and slumping starter, with Schoenweis on the hill bodes well I think for the Angels...Good pick for a dog here.
Angels
1.0 for 1.4
St. Louis -160
The Cards are red hot and will win this game more than two thirds of the time I think. The lineup is going with Big Mac -- who in his bitterness with Bonds wants to perform well down the stress -- and Pujols and company. Heck when Vina is hitting homeruns you KNOW the lineup is cooking. Rocky Coppinger? Are you kidding me? This guy is going to get exactly that ROCKED. I say take the Cards, and take the runline. To top that, Williams is pitching as well as anyone in the Cardinals rotation lately this side of Bud Smith. The only thing that scares me is the bullpen, but I think that this game should be well out of hand until we get to that point.
Cards
1.6 for 1.0 Straight up
1.15 for 1.0 -1.5 runs
Houston/SF UNDER
Under games at Enron seem to be all over the place lately. We do have something to be aware of however....Dave Milicki, perhaps the worst pitcher in the pennant race, is on the hill. Russ Ortiz can also give up his share of runs. This leads me to the next point. The bullpens, after a day of rest, are fresh. Both pens are probably the top two in the N.L. right now....with the Cubs' pen getting rocked lately....and both WILL be used at the first sign of trouble. The starting pitchers make the totals go up, but I would expect there to be no more than 6 or 7 runs scored by the time the pens get in to close the game down. A frest Dotel, Mike Jackson, and Billy Wagner going against Rodriguez Nen and crew should throw up donuts in the later innings. Pray that Mike Williams does not get into the game. Really like the UNDER play here.
UNDER 10 runs (Houston/SF)
1.1 Units for 1.0
As other posts have pointed out -- UNDER is a strong play at ENRON and COORS lately due to Joe Public liking to watch the overs....I think this one hits 75% of the time. Don't see 11 runs being scored.
Good luck to ya'll.......
