About this listen
Back from trying to figure out whom is calling me by making the worst prank calls ever and then seeing who is following me because they will be spewing their perverted lies… I thought when you have a catfish you’re supposed to set the hook.
Enough about my schizophrenic hallucinations or the MK Ultra meets a vindictive bogus RICO investigation designed to end me in the mental health ward for not knowing what they thought I should. Speaking of the mental health ward, Dean Kramer has a 15.4 ERA vs. Minnesota in two appearances. They look to avoid the sweep here but face the Twins again for a three game set next week in Baltimore. I’ll take the Twins based on the pitching stat knowing that Kramer is a good pitcher and he will be seeking a better performance against a team that has had his number in two meeting thus far.
Texas has already taken the season series with the Red Sox, Leiter who has beaten the Red Sox already once in this young season and career but had a rough time out on the mound in his last start as Seattle touched him 13-1. Another young starter on the Red Sox side as Bellos is 2-1 vs. Texas in his young career. At 9 Iook at the pitching matchup and have to consider that under. With one game now of seeing Leiter how many times does it take for the team scouting and batters to get into the the Rangers starter? He only allowed 1 run in 5 innings, and with Bryan Bellos stats I lean to the under 9 here. I also think the Red Sox should win but that would still lose the season matchup as it is 4-2 Texas entering todays game.
Detroit, Detroit can they pull the double header as they have now jumped out in the Central to what some of us were waiting for and then they got some postseason clutch in last year and now they have rode the momentum. It’s a long season in Denver but they will get wins whenever they come up. Try to balance this thing where you can get a unit and get the fuck out the way or do you look at a parlay? Not for me because yesterday it was 8-6, and Detroit while they are 23-13 the Tigers are 10-10 on the road. The likely better way may be to avoid the consensus and hope the 7th win of the season is somewhere around for the Rockies? Tough call and I may jump in live bet or pass right here.
Reds are down 1-2 in the series in Atlanta. This pitching matchup has both teams with young pitching who both I was able to find one appearance, no decisions for either hurler vs. today’s opponent. The Braves may very well win and they are dangerous at any time, but Lodolo has been excellent every other start, shutting out opponents in 3 games this year, with the “bad” start coming in his last outing vs. the Nationals. With the Reds ability to hit the ball this season 6th in the NL that may very likely be the key to game as the Braves are 5-2 record in games where they don’t allow a home run. Atlanta under .500 but posting an 11-6 record where the games start at 7:20. The Reds? they are over .500 on the road at 10-9 while .500 ball is been the pace thus far for the Red legs. The consensus squarely on the Braves but with Schwellenbach at 1-3 for the year I see the Reds as having a 50% chance to win the game and paying out +175 and that is what you need to know, wager at your own risk or don’t.
