All I can say is that I have been a great fade of late over past week. Anyway hoping to get back on winning ways starting tonight.
Washington +139 (Halama) vs Philadelphia (Padilla)- This is the Phillies 4th city of a 4 city road trip so they have to be growing road weary considering first 2 stops were on the west coast. Padilla has been awful of late and though Halama is nothing special, I feel Nationals will come through at home in a high scoring game.
Tampa Bay +140 (Hendrickson) vs Toronto (Downs)...Tampa is coming off of a real rough 4 game series in Boston where hitting was great but pitching especially mid to late innings was awful. I really like value in this one with Hendrickson facing former team as Downs is not a strong enough pitcher to be a -150 vs anyone. Rays outslug Jays in this one.
Texas -160 (Young) vs Royals (Greinke)- Young looked decent in last outing vs White Sox while Greinke has been an enigma all year as even with some decent run support still would have been one of the worst records. Texas hitters should be able to once again feast on some bad pitching again.
Seattle +140 (Moyer) vs Anaheim (Byrd)...I am going with the better pitcher in this one. Angels have more at stake but Seattle has been doing a nice job of playing spoiler and staying competitive. Last trip to Anaheim was highlight of Mariner season in a 4 game sweep of then hot Angels.
Yankees +100 (Leiter) vs A's (Haren)...Both teams in playoff race and coming off of losses so should be a very competitive game. Difference in this one is the Yanks experience and Rivera's ability to close out games.
Have a great night everyone and fade me right now isn't a bad play!
