Saturday diamonds with brief writeups

[garth]

SF (Cain)/LAD (Penny) over 8.5 This one's basically a play based on umpire stats, Only 61% strikes, averages 11+ runs in his games BHP, etc. You get a reasonable over number in an afternoon game.

SD (Peavy)/Houston (Hirsh) under 9. Peavy's numbers are really good the last three games. So he appears to be in top form. This 6'8", 250 lb. rookie for the Stros is 13-2 with a 2.13 ERA at AAA Round Rock this year. Both bullpens performing well of late. Dan Wheeler hasn't given up an earned run since 1964 I don't think.

Milwaukee (Sheets) -125 over Atlanta (Barry). Sheets appears to be in good form right now. Barry, however, does not. His last 3 outings last month he pitched a total of 1 2/3 innings and gave up 7 ER.

Cards (Snell) -108 over Pitt (Weaver) I think Weaver's gonna be a Christmas tree today. And Snell pitches well on the road. Gerry Davis, BHP ump today, has a strong bias towards the road team this year (16-8).

Good luck today.

God, I had a major brain fart today with that Cards/Pitt writeup! Obviously I got the starters completely juxtaposed. And it's too late to edit. I still like the Cards. Should have had a little more ice and a little less Jack Daniels last night. Fuck, fade em all and you'll be in good shape.

Don't understand the St. Louis write-up Snell is at home and pitches for Pittsburg! Thanks good write-ups on the other games!

Winton, see my note above. You're absolutely right. I don't know if it's possible for a mod to restore my edit privileges for the original post. If so, I'd like to fix it. thanks.

Thanks! I was writing my reply when you where writing yours didn't see your reply till after I had sent mine! I think you do well today I'm going to lay off the Pittsburg I just cant bet on Weaver!

GL garth. I like the St. Louis call, considering how much better both pitchers have been away from home.

adding

Toronto +105 Boof Bonser looks and sounds like a pitcher that needs to be faded today. "Boof" - Who TF names their kid Boof?

Thanks, guys. That over in LA at least has a chance now that the Giants got on the board. I thought after those first few innings that Penny was just gonna cruise.
