=====
nationals +153 0.8/1.22
---Livan has been very good in 10 at Wrigley and great through his first 3; Gorzy so-so vs in 2 starts and pretty bad in 8 at Wrigley...pretty good his first 3 but against pretty weak competition and hasn't last long; nats 3-1 on the road to L, for whatever that's worth--maybe not much as they were 6-15 on the road to L in '09, but they have hit lefties well this year; Cubs pen is unimpressive so far
Astros -120 1.8/1.5
---Harang has followed up his crappy spring by being consistently brutal through his first 4...he's been nothing special vs including 10 at MM; Norris has been so-so though wild and short; Astros with the better pen, sticks and momentum
Cardinals -1 -125 1.25/1
---Lowe has been crap vs in 7 and even worse at in 3 (0-3/8.80era) as well as nothing special his first 4 (wild); Carpenter has been improving and looked good his last 2...he's very good at Busch though poor vs in 7; good edge Cardsticks
Rockies -1.5 +116 1/1.16
---Jackson has been shit vs in 4 (0-1/13.81era) including 2 at Coors...pretty good his first 4 but vs weak; Jimenez has been good vs in 8 and great through his first 4; Rox have the WAY better bullpen; d'backs have been hitting well lately but mostly vs some poor pitching...some better righties have kept them quiet and they much prefer home; other than the Haren game, Rox have been hitting well, also, and do their best (no doubt) at home
Rays -1.5 +120 1/1.2
---still not sold on Sheets as he had a shit spring and has been wild and short; Davis was very good his last 2 and has been good at the Trop in 5 and good nights in 6; Rays pen getting better and a big edge to their sticks here
Royals -1.5 +121 0.83/1
---Snell has been poor vs in 2 including 1 at Kaufmann and has been crap, wild and short his past 2; Greinke still not dominating but has been very good vs in 6+2 (3-0/2.14era) and is very good both home and nights; edge to Royalsticks as m's have carried over their crappy spring hitting into the real deal; Royals middle-relief kind of blows but hopefully Zack can last and closer Soria should be available, unless there's something I'm unaware of--surprised he didn't close Monday
Too many RL's but wha(t)(he)y.
Might parlay the yanks if not too exorbitant.
