[EXTRAPOLATER]

Surviving Sunday but somebody please shoot Ian Kennedy from the grassy knoll or wherevas. He's only surviving as the gNats O is a little on the dusty side.

No crunching today but giving assholes--I mean opinions--on the opening lines and matchups.
Freedom rocks.

7 lad(Lilly-L)@Phil(Lee-L)
Both preferring L while Lee has already walked more batters than he did all of '10. Price a joke at -194 and if I would play it then I'd take a shot at lad +182.
7.5 is too low. Over if I had to play.

7 mil(Greinke)@Flor(Vazquez)
Greinke still finding his way since DL but has been reasonably decent and I totally prefer him, here, to the often-overrated and now understated Vazquez. Brews the better hitting club, lately, and Braun ailments seem a minor deterrant. -130 is about ceiling for my worship and price unlikely to come down as public has a shorter memory than I.
8.5 total looks bang-on...Predicted final score: mil 5.5 Flor 3

7 chc(Garza)@Cin(Leake)
Totally prefer Garza to the shirt thief. Neither O getting kudos, lately. chc +123 might see some of my money vanish. Reds in a bit of a funky chicken but chc O not inspiring confidence. Play would be totally SP while BP's not too far apart.
I see no total listed. Under a 9 seems probable.

10 col(Mortensen)@Sd(Richard-L)
Toss a coin, here.
Over 7+109 if I had to do something.

10 wash(Lannan-L)@SF(Lincecum)
Lannan mildly hot while Lincecum had some trouble at Stl in last, still 0 BB to 9 K's. I see Tim just 1-2 vs wash, also, but that likely evens out here. -196 is a trifle excrutiating but a runline, at -113 to -119, might be worthy, assuming the G's can actuallt score 3 or maybe 4 runs...can be a stretch, sometimes.
Total of 6 is pass.
nats under 3, maybe, as I can't seem them exceeding that.


Just IMO's.

I'm majorly overboard.

video potentially retarded
didn't watch whole
sound Q seems good for audio

It's not my fault.
God made a mistake.

7 oak(Gonzalez-L)@Balt(Matusz-L)
Certainly tempted by staying-put O's over touring A's. -105 could be worse. Might be better closer to game time, even. Neither hitting L well but A's aren't hitting anything well. 1st5 much better as decent edge A's BP.
Total of 7.5 looks under, maybe, but 1st5 at a 4 would be better for BP reasons.
I'm likely small Balt.

7 min(Baker)@Clev(Tomlin)
Two O's are heading in opposite directions with Clev big-time slumping while twins somehow hitting well with a majorly make-shift lineup. Clev -155 looks ridiculous due to same. Had a big dog twinkie Sun and my only try, side, would be same at +146.
Total of 9 a tough call but methinks under, maybe, though -118 needs to come down before try and also need to check weather.

8 det(Scherzer)@Tex(Lewis)
Tough call and Tex -145 is too much.
Total of 9.5 looks high. Gimme wind blowing in and under-temptation might flourish, currently -110 for same.


Things getting interesting at Chase & Petco.

ratsen fratsen

8 tor(Morrow)@Kc(Paulino)
T.O. -126 looks reasonable. Homer or otherwise.
Kc sticks in a funk and while tor sticks remain inconsistent I'll dive, here, with K-or-nothing Morrow over gimme-a-break Paulino, esp. with the better BP.
Total of 9 maybe low. Can't touch it.

8 seat(Pineda)@Cws(Danks-L)
I see -103/-103. seat if I had to play despite tour vs stayin' put. 1st5 looks safer...close to even money, when it opens for me, and I might try seat.
under 8 -120, might pay, though a 1st5 und4 would be better.

10 tb(Price-L)@Laa(Chatwood)
Big edge tb SP as Chatwood needs more seasoning than Price did when he first showed up. Laa decent vs L, but OPS has fallen off the table vs L as it was well over .800 through April and has recently been in the .720's. Mid-relief edge tb and closer to maybe Laa. -134 is high and droppage to -120'ish if I'm to try her.
Total of 7 also looks surmountable, though I'd be more interested in a tb over 3.5 or 4 if such appears.

Grain of salt, aye.
