1) CUBS under 10 -105 :
something looks wrong about this number...
Bere has pitched addmirably at home..and Thompson's starts have all gone under this year...
COL is 0-4 when Thomson starts.
The under is 8-1 in Thomson's last nine starts overall.
The under is 8-3 in the Rockies last 11 overall.
The under is 10-2 when Bere starts in the day.
The under is 7-2 when Bere starts at home.
The under is 10-2 in the last 12 meetings
2) taking Randy Johnson -1.5 (-130) vs Florida (and that GREAT Sanchez guy...)
Once again, Randy must save the asses of his teammates, i'm taking a chance here, cause I like Sanchez,but i think Randy should cruise in this one...again.
3) YANKS -1.5 (-150) vs TB
i don't see the Yanks losing two in a row to TB, i didn't have the balls to pull the trigger on TB last nite, but i think Pettite will help the yanks come through again against Beerbrat and TB.
here's another thing...with the except of the SF/CINCi game (although Elmer Dessens 's home games are a solid UNDER play...)..i like ALL the NL games tonite to go under...?
go figure.
4) LA/PITTS : UNDER 9.5 -115
a good lefty with a good righty on the mound..pitts played 'em close..watch for them to do it again...
Jimmy Anderson has good career numbers VS L.A:
W-L: 2-1 ERA: 1.57
G: 4 IP: 28.2 H: 25 ER: 5 BB: 13
SO: 13
Prokopec has an era of about 4.55 on the road..with a record of 4-6...?
maybe a lean on the side of pittsburgh tonite, anyone?
6) WHO-SOX/ANAHEIM UNDER 8.5 -115
two great pitchers, Buerhle and Washburn
and get this...Buerle is a better pitcher on the road than he is at home????
stats for Buerhle on the road:
record :5-2 2.65
washburn at home: record :4-1 3.61
