Well, a nightmare yesterday going 1-3. I think Tiger's reference to the day as "Black Tuesday" sums it up best.
Anyways back to it. I'm playing 2 games today, with a little writeup on my best play tonight.
OVER 8 Florida +100 (3 units)
Giants (1 unit)
Well as for the OVER in the Atlanta-Florida game. The pitchers tonight do not match up very well with Home Plate Ump MARK CARLSON. Carlson has a small strikezone averaging 7.58 walks per game. This is a very high average and can't see him helping the pitchers tonight:
Burnett has 75 walks in 152.2 innings
Marquis has 54 walks in 115 innings
These guys walk nearly one every other inning. On top of the large amount of free passes that may be issued tonight, each pitcher has struggled vs the opposing team tonight:
Burnett is a career 1-2 vs Atlanta and this year is 0-1 with a 5.40 era
Marquis is 0-1 this year with a 9.82 era vs. Florida.
Another factor is Atlanta seems to hit righties well on the road...they have a 10-2 record and are averaging 4.4 runs/game while Florida hits righties at home very well....they have a 35-19 record and are averaging 4.9 runs/game
Good luck in all your plays today!
