We hit a couple of good ones last night!
Curtis Mead HR +468
HOU/WSH over 14.5 +379
The rest were about a split of hits and misses, but it was a winning night with those two nice finds.
THE DREAM SPOTS
Two of the best pitchers of our current age are in near perfect matchups tonight.
Tarik Skubal at home vs. ATH
Jacob deGrom at home vs. LAA
These two lineups are #1 and #2 in the lineup strikeout rate:
Of course, the lines are high. It’s 8+ strikeouts before you get to even money. But we’re playing for some upside here, and both of these guys have huge, huge strikeout upside.
The path is to bet both for 8+ strikeouts if you want to be a little bit “safe”, or go to 10+ strikeouts if you want the big potential payout.
8+ for both gets you +191
10+ for both guys get you +1307
I’m taking the first one for one unit and the second one for half a unit. Let’s hope for some double-digit numbers coming from those two future Hall of Famers. I guess neither guy is a lock for the Hall of Fame, but whatever they can be in my Hall of Fame, I haven’t been on earth that long. Only 35 years.
