Plays for 4-18
Yesterday 3-2 +2.6 Units
YTD 11-8 +4.4 Units
Good day yesterday, got lucky on a few plays but on the right side of lady luck! Today I am playing WAY less chalk (I was sweating all the chalk yesterday and it almost took a big bite outta my wallet....).
San Diego +158 (2 to win 3.2)
The value here is just too good to pass up. We have a Padres team that finds ways to win, like last night when they beat Philly's ace at his home park. Myers has given up the LONG ball a lot this year, and I think the Fathers have a really good chance to win this ball game.
Cubs -130 (3.3 to win 2.5)
I like the Cubs here because their most productive hitters (Lee, Ramirez, Soriano, Soto, Theriot) have mashed Lohse in the past. Dempster is great at home and I think this game is not nearly as close (or exciting) as yesterday's game. Again, hate to bet with the heart, but I really like the Cubs to win this game.
