Daddy's MLB Wednesday (4.11)

[Daddy Diego]

I'll be posting the rest of my picks in a couple hours, but here's the 411 on my daily Oakland A's pick.


wisher weet Play of the Day
>> A's (-112) = *2.24 Units
- Day game is just what the A's needed to get the bats going. They were the worst night time hitting team (run production) in the AL last year, and still won the division. I'll take Kennedy who quieted some skeptics in his last start. Especially against Buehrle with a strained arm. I like their momentum coming off of last night as well. Go A's!

Get'em today Double Ds.....GL

[emv01]

On your A's as well!!

[Daddy Diego]

Thanks, and GL to you guys! Here's the 7:05s... playing a lot of totals, which is rare for me, but I'm more confident in them than usual today. BOLT!

SEATTLE/BOSTON No Score 1st Inning = *2.6 Units (-130)
- Both these pitchers are just lights out the 1st 3 innings. Both only gave up 1 hit through the first 3 in their first start. With all the hoopla, I expect both to come out hurling and go 1, 2, 3.

TIGERS/ORIOLES 1st 5 Innings (UNDER 5) = *2.3 Units (-115)
- This is the Tigers 1st look at Loewen, who I've been very impressed with. Verlander is going to toss a quality start, and both these teams are playing close games lately. Aside from a bases-juiced longball, I don't see either team putting up more than 2 runs in this first half. I think it's the bullpens that get knocked around if anything.

MARLINS/BREWERS (OVER 8.5) = *2.2 Units
- Not sure why the total dropped a point in this game. Both pitchers did fundamentally well their last starts, but these are two offensive teams with weak bullpens, I could see this game in double digits quite easily. Might be falling for a trap here.

ANGELS (+115) = *2 Units
- Like the value here against Westbrook on neutral turf. Angels got a binder on him 3 inches thick. A solid Angels pen should be able to keep a lead, or keep the Halos in the game long enough to pull this one out.


- Too much chalk on all the other games to make a play. I haven't looked at the late games tonight yet, so I may be back with more.

Good Luck D's, disagreeing w/ you on the Marlins over, I don't see this game getting past 6 runs

[Daddy Diego]

Duke and Street blew the game today. Oh yeah, and hell froze over.

Still likin the rest of my picks. Definitely make 1 or 2 more plays around 6 PM PST.

Right now I'm taking...

D-BACKS (-125) = *2.5 Units
- Love this Owings guy.

[Daddy Diego]

Man, D-Backs and A's both give it up late and don't answer. Tough nite.
Wednesdays are rough for me with work. I'll be better tomorrow. Here's the updated splits.

4.11 => (3-3) -0.64 Units
