astro's MLB
got a few to throw out there as I've had a solid personal run lately.
keep in mind though that I'm dead last in the MLB contest so FWIW i'm on:
Rays over 9.5 even
milwaukee -120
yanks/twins parley pays 1.1 to 1
GL if you play em, fade em or throw em out

going to add Arizona to my card today. I got em @ -106 and i see it anywhere from -104 to -115 out there now. I think the DBacks avoid the sweep here against an inconsistent dice-k.

mad week at work but ready for some weekend MLB:
records now at 13-15 but still +1.4 units
today I got Mil,CHC under 7.5 -115 (1.15 for 1)
Sheets, who is looking to become the Brewers' first 10-game winner, is 5-0 with a 2.04 ERA over his last six starts, and has won three consecutive outings.
The Cubs will counter with Sean Marshall (4-2, 2.44), who is 4-0 with a 2.32 ERA in five June starts, and has given up more than two earned runs only once in seven outings this season.
Hopefully they both put up some innings and limit the bullpen exposure.
Cleveland -1.5 @ -125 (2 to win 1.6) big juice for a runline but here's why:
Sabathia has been more impressive at Jacobs Field against the Devil Rays (33-45), entering with a 27-inning scoreless streak at home against them. He's won all four home starts against Tampa Bay with a 0.58 ERA in those games and 33 strikeouts in 31 innings.
Rays bats have been dead w/ only 10 runs in the last 5 and now they get one of the hottest starters in MLB. Waiting on the team totals as I'd like an under 3.5 for tampa and 5 or more for CLE.
looking at the under 6.5 in the SDG/LAD game. lowest total of the year but for good reason. late game so I'll see how the others go.
GL evrybody!

2-0 yesterday and now a 14-4/9-2 run the last week or so
44-41 and +6.72 units ytd.
tuesdays plays:
Tampa +119 - booked this one last night not sure where the line was headed and it's still +119. Scary to see so many people on the Rays but Kazmir's been rollin with a 1.1 ERA with 38k's and 0hr's his last 5. We also know Manny and Popi have a combined avg of .156 lifetime vs. Kaz. JT may have the right idea here of taking the 1'st 5 line as boston can make a starter throw a lot of pitches bringing the pen about early in the game. The game line's what I booked so that's what I'll post. Do think the Rays bats can come around vs. the lefty Lester though.
under 9.5 even will be a play for me also.
will also play Reds/Cubs under 8 -120
and Cleveland -145

Good Gravy, We hit em from all sides yesterday!
Smashing day for the MLB board!
53-50 & +7.07 units ytd
got some strong #'s on both sides at the Trop tonight:
from Messy's post:]
Wake is 18-2 with a 2.83 ERA and three saves in 35 career games -- 25 starts -- versus the Devil Rays. The knuckleballer has been dominant at Tropicana Field, winning all eight of his decisions there with a 2.33 ERA in 18 outings -- 12 starts -- while holding the Devil Rays to a .190 batting average
and on the other side:
Kazmir has dominated Boston at home, going 2-0 with a 1.42 ERA and allowing a .183 batting average in six starts, including a terrific outing on July 29 when he held the Red Sox to six hits while striking out eight in six shutout innings of a 5-2 win.
Kazmir's last two outings against the Red Sox are part of a stunning four-start stretch during which he is 2-0 with a minuscule 0.36 ERA and 32 strikeouts in 25 innings.
Kazmir, who has not allowed a run since the third inning of a win Aug. 4 against Baltimore
Manny Ramirez, who is hitting .320 with 40 career home runs against Tampa, has only managed to go 5-for-36 (.139) with a solo home run against Kazmir. David Ortiz has also struggled against the young hurler, hitting .147 (5-for-34) also with one homer, while averaging .298 at the plate with 27 career homers against the Rays.
Rays bats are also in a funk lately
I'd think the Boston pen would give them more than -110 here?
well all that and I really don't have a play tonight, may go small on tampa and the under but will probably just sip a few beers and enjoy the game,
