I've got no problems with getting my bet cancelled from yesterday, as the Mets and Phillies left about 20 men on base in 4 1/2 innings, and only scored 2 runs.
Friday Baseball Play of the Day (20-17, +5.35)
Arizona Diamondbacks +158 (Cruz/Mulder)
Let me describe two teams for you:
Team A - is 8-2 in their last 10 games. They have a pitcher starting whose ERA is 0.90 in two starts. They average 6.3 runs per game against LHSPs, of which they face Friday.
Team B - is 5-5 in their last 10 games. Their starting pitcher has an ERA of 4.44, and 7.36 in his last two starts. They average 5.0 runs per game against RHSPs, of which they face Friday.
In addition, Team A is commiting 0.2 fewer errors per game, turns more double plays, and has a batting average 7 points higher than Team B.
Now, Arizona is Team A, and St. Louis is Team B. I can't fathom any reason the Cardinals are this large of a favorite other than name recognition, and the fact that they are at home - this isn't a big concern, as Arizona is 9-8 on the road this year, and is 11-6 as an underdog.
This line screams D'Backs value, and I'll take my chances at this inflated price.
Good luck everyone!
