Nice winner with the Brew Crew Friday.
Baseball Play of the Day (34-33, +4.61*)
Pittsburgh Pirates -114 (Maholm/Bonser)
Bonser has been average at best (5.48 ERA). His last two starts he's given up 6 home runs, as opposed to Maholm, who has given up 1 in his last five starts.
Maholm is 2-5, but 2-1 at home. His overall ERA of 4.56 is decent, but his home ERA is under 4.00.
The Twins are 10-24 on the road.
The Twins average 4.6 rpg, but only 3.9 on the road, and only 3.9 against LHSP.
Against LHSP on the road, the Twins are 2-10, averaging 3.4 rpg (1-7, 3.5 rpg at night).
The Pirates are 18-16 at home.
The Pirates average 4.6 rpg, but average 5.4 rpg at home (4.5 against RHSP)
The Pirates are at their best in home night games. The average score in those games is 6.4-4.0. They are especially effective against RHSP, where they are 12-3.
Two strong opinions: Braves at +130 or better (Beckett vastly overpriced, Ramirez is erratic - but no more so than Beckett. He shouldn't be this much of a dog against a Boston team that is .500 on the road, and .500 against LHSP), Under 9.5 in Philly (only at odds of -110 or better). I played a little on both.
Good luck everyone.
