Houston/St.Louis over 8 -- laying $189 to win $150
Reasoning:
The juice on this Over has shot upwards the last 60 minutes by 10 cents. The Astros have been shutout twice in a row, and although they are capable of having 3-or-4 game ruts like this, they are facing Jeff Weaver, with about a 10 mph breeze blowing straight out (only a slight breeze, but heck, it's still blowing out to dead center), and this may be a perfect recipe for Houston to break out of their 2-game offensive slump. Weaver has put forth 2 solid outings in a row, so he is also about due for a mediocre or bad outing. The Cards' bullpen has been brutal and Weaver rarely goes deep into games, so as long as the Cards can get a few runs here, this should be an Over, although the Stroh's should be capable of putting up 8 themselves tonight.
Week 3: 1-0, +$150
Week 2: 5-3, +$306 (did win $509 on the Mansion free bet & hedge)
Week 1: 5-1, +$913
