7 lad@Pit
lad: decent edge bats but Pit's W/L vs L remains funky at 6-2 (4-2 home)
Pit: big edge BP, small edge SP so far but Lilly due to show something or hit the DL
Toss a coin; Monday's might hint at a solution.
7 phil@Flor
I was thinking, about a week ago--without knowing this was coming up--that this would be a beauty match-up to see.
Flor: small edge BP, small edge bats esp. lately & being home (9-4 H vs R as opposed to phil 5-4 road vs R...mostly lookin' at production and OPS, however)
SP's looking pretty even though Doc has been stellar since poor one--several games ago--while Josh ran into trouble in last vs Cards as the strike zone seemed difficult to find
Under, even at 6, is tempting. Maybe a 3, 1st5, if av. Need to see ump...should know soon. Marlins small also tempting, though fading Doc seems ridiculous despite the 100 or so games I've seen him pitch.
7 wash@Atl
wash: bring back Andre Dawson
Atl: big edge SP, medium edge BP & bats
Marquis' distorted #'s coming back to earth after thrshing in Philly; Hudson looked untouchable in last vs good, though slumping, brewers O and he has pretty wicked numbers vs nats, in 19 goes, including 1 this season.
Price ain't a surprise and I'll consider runline depending on unknowns.
8 cin@Hou
cin: medium edge SP & BP & bats (oh my)
Two SP's just faced off in last, where Bailey looked great--as in recent AAA rehab--while Myers looked brutal. Very tempting for reasonable price.
8 stl@Chc
stl: large edge bats
Chc: small edge BP as two pens are moving opposite directions, lately.
SP's pretty even, as Carpenter was looking pretty good early--despite no W's--but he's been hit more than usual lately. Zambrano's better pretty good and he can be real streaky.
Impossible call.
8 sd@Mil
sd: medium edge BP, hitting better lately but I think that most blind people are hitting better than Mil lately (no offense to any...nevermind...)
Mil: medium edge bats in a perfect world, large edge SP.
Richard has been decent but Marcum has been phenomenal and this is the type of squad he should be able to totally shut down.
Price (-163) maybe tolerable for a parlay, or maybe a runline might pay--need to see if O wakes up Monday.
8:4 nym@Col
nym: medium edge bats in this imperfect world, small edge BP with recent turn-aroundages
Col: medium edge SP with Hammel surprising, lately, while Pelfrey looks majorly unsafe to back.
Price on Rox is WAY to high, regardless of Monday's result. Over 9 is tempting but need to check ump, weather and Monday action.
10 ariz@Sf
ariz: medium edge bats
Sf: medium edge SP & BP
Impossible to buck the Freak esp. w/crappy opposing pen but price is insane considering SF's recent offensive production, not to mention Kennedy's fine work this season.
Under a 9, if it were offered, but 6.5 at -123 can kiss my ass.
Will do A.L. by Dec.21, 2012.
