FRIDAY BASEBALL ...........(3 plays)

3-2 yesterday for almost a unit profit, season is 48-42 -1.85 units.

Anaheim -125 Wagerstreet
Lilly vs Lackey

Lilly is 3-6 on the road and Angels have beaten these guys 5 of their last 6 games. In the match-ups I think the pitching is close but strong advantage at the plate for us. Oakland is just not hitting, .213 in their last ten and .205 against righthanders. Anaheim is htting .287 in their last 10 games and .297 against lefties. Bullpens are about a wash. I like fading Lilly anyway so getting Anaheim at home for -125 is a nice spot for my money.

Minnesota -125 Wagerstreet
Rogers vs Westbrook

I know some will not like this play, Westbrook has pitched well his last few starts and Rogers is "over the hill". The match-ups hitting/pitching favor the Twins, they are hitting .328 against lefties while Tribe is hitting .241 against righties in their last 10 games. Also with this Westbrook being shuffled back and forth between being bullpen/starter he does not usually go deep in games. His last two games where he was pitching very well he was pulled after 5 innings so that puts it out to the pen, not a strong point for the Indians. At -125 I will take a team battling for the division and who's 6-2 last 8 games over a team 0-9 recently. Anything can happen (and usually does) but we'll win more of these than we lose. One more play coming......

Atlanta -118 Pinnacle
Ramirez vs Vargas

General trends show Braves are 13-4 when Ramirez starts and 15-3 overall their last 18 games. Vargas is 0-3 his last 3 outings and Expos are only 3-6 in their last 9 games. I get the feeling Montreal has lost interest in the season. Expos are hitting .250 as a team while Braves are over .300 in their last 10 games. No big reasoning here just throwing stuff out. Braves at -118 is all the reason I need.

Like everyone else have a lean on the Florida game under and think there is value on Yanks today as well. Good luck men, this will be it for me today.

pat, i see we both have atlanta and minn.. i also like your anaheim play and may add them as a late game,,, minnesota is close to turning things around, they got jacque jones back in gear, and the addition of stewart. this is a much better team.. cant believe your not on kc..
