[EXTRAPOLATER]

1 cin(Bailey)@Phil(Lee-L)
cin: big edge bats facing most lefties
Phil: small edge SP & BP
cin 2-3@L and only 4-4 total, Phil 10-8 H to R(16-16)
Have cin 54%(+146)+13
okay...I'll likely bite; cin off to Atl after while Phil tours to Metstink
under a thought but not at 7 with medium wind out to left

2:2 nym(Dickey)@Chc(Zambrano)
nym: bring back Keith Hernandez
Chc: medium edge SP, small edge bats esp. with lateliness
BP's comparable
Have Chc 60%(-146)0
Cubs stay put, after, while mets tour home for a potential sweep via phil
strong wind in from left-center and probable rain
Dickey blows but Carlos hasn't been shining--and he's been historically streaky--likely takin' a flyer, here

3:4 flor(Sanchez)@Sf(Vogelsong)
flor: medium edge SP as Anibal is hot--Vogelsong's been solid, too, and great at home, so far...still not sold; small edge BP & bats, the latter coming down lately
flor takes short trip to Lad while Sf off to Mil
Have flor 56%(-101)+5
Need to see Wed's action--tempting, though.
Decent wind out to right-center only adds to me personal pass on the 7.
flor ov 3 or 3.5, maybe, if theysticks happenin' Wed; best on the ml if so

8:4 ariz(Owings)@Col(Mortensen)
ariz: b.b. Unit & Curt?...I dunno...they've been decent, lately--both clubs hitting well
Col: large edge SP, small edge bats
BP's comparablly un-neato, certainly mid-relief
ariz off to Hou while Col stays put for stl
wind out to right 11mph
Have Col 63%(-156)+2
runline, if anything, at +134
big -121 on that over 9


need to flip the tunes
any suggestions?

12:3 kc(Francis-L)@Balt(Guthrie)
kc: medium edge bats & BP
Balt: medium edge SP
wind out to left 11mph
Have Balt 54%(-137)-4
I think I'll spectate, barring a big inheritance.

1 bost(Aceves)@Det(Scherzer)
bost: small edge bats--medium+ lately, medium edge BP
Det: medium edge SP
wind out to right-center 11mph and, like (dude), 90% chance of stormies
Both stay for weekend, with 'sox in from Clev w/Det staying put after rain to drown some more.
Have Det 56%(-113)+2
Blindly liked Scherzer but I'll bet on rain if they offer a line.
8.5 total blows more than Bin-whatsit did. Or Does. Whatevas.

3:3 oak(Anderson-L)@Laa(Pineiro)
oak: small edge SP
Laa: medium edge bats but those numbers vs L, for Laa, have majorly tanked the past couple of weeks
wind out to right-center at 13mph
oak tours home, after, while Laa off to Minny
Have Laa 57%, somehow (+101)+7
Totally prefer over7, +109, despite the grim O's.
I think it will be Nauert ump'ing, but no one on the staff could be considered an under-ump, regardless.

7 cws(Humber)@Tor(Morrow)
cws: small edge bats, I think, at least lately
Tor: medium+ edge bullpen, at least if they slaughter Francisco within the next...nevermind...
SP's looking even but I prefer Morrow--just needs to take some valium or something, or could certainly use a big-zone ump.
Both stay put for Fri, with Jays crawling home from New York and cws coming in from waayyyy down in Texas.
Wind out to center at 9mph but roof will be closed, barring malfunction, as major chance for rain for my birthday.
Have Tor 54%(-130)-3
cough

[EXTRAPOLATER]

Laa 5-1 at home to L, by-the-by (9-9 total vs L)
oak 6-12 @R (14-21 total vs R)
oak OPS vs R only .644, pre-Wed, with much of that coming at P-friendly Oak-Col, surely, but still...O blows.
Laa OPS vs L at .731, down about a hundred points over the past 3 weeks or so.

I woulda just edited but I have a fear of vampires.

Not sure what to do on this game.
Over7, with the plussy-plus, looks better than Dancing with the Stars.

bad example
:facepalm:

go Leafs!
:scared

Thanks, bloodhound.
The cheque is in the mail.

BD is actually Friday--think Darryl Sittler...the only way that I can remember it. Similar to how I remember the age of a good bud of mine; he was born the same year the Mick won the Triple Crown.

Anywho, 19-innings yesterday makes this cin-Phil game interesting. Lee, clearly, the more likely SP to give the pen a rest, though Bailey could go 7, no prob, if needed. Line dropped 10 points at my book (now +136). Some claim scoring is higher after these extra-inning games but I haven't seen anything to back that up; I'd think that the swingers would be more tired but, of course, the defenses should be also.

Just rambling.
Why am I up so early?

p.s.
Jo Jo Reyes just tied the record for most starts without a W.
kudos:toast:


Jo Jo was a man who thought he was a pitcher
but he knew it couldn't last
