I bet the Astros bats break out in a big way on Saturday afternoon.  They usually score a bunch more when they are home, and they need a win today.  One run for Houston in the last 3 games, I figure today is the day to bet them.  The line in my head for this game was Houston laying between 140 and 150.  So at even money, this is my best bet today.

Houston Astros-101 for me.

Risking 15.8% of my bankroll.

If u really loved your dough you would stay away from this shit team. And at-101....thats it??
I was there last night and took them just to have action. They can't hit with risp and striking out at a very high rate.

Lead off double wasted, starting pitcher giving up 1 hit through 7....wasted. Think twice but gl to you

I forgot to mention, it's always a good bet to go against the Indians when they face a lefty starter.

Today has to be the day for Houston.  They're going against a pitcher whose sinkerball doesn't sink.  Cleveland pitching is horrendous on the road.  I love Houstons chances.  Good luck to you today, Dallas.

Thanks Mauler.  The stadium was great.  We bought $10 tix.  Paid a ten dollar cover to get into the Clevelander bar section.  It was rocking there.  Everyone was having a great time..drinks. Food. Music..  It's along the left field wall...so u can see the action.  Rockin bar..chicks...great scene.  We left there in fourth inning and grabbed some seats by third base.  Security didn't care.  The stadium is beautiful other than that stupid thing in center field...you've seen it on tv..  Great place though.  I took a posters advice and tried that pizza..sir pizza...fantastic..top 5 pizzas...and I live in NY.  I don't know why they built it.  Marlins fans dont deserve it.  Only 20,000 on a rainy Friday night.  Only complaint is the team itself.  Lost big on those douchebags.  They suck.

If those were the picks before the games, that's really good! But with my luck, once I start paying and playing the picks, it will start missing like crazy! Besides, maybe they won't be around the full week once payment is received. Sounds too good to be true.

Yup.  The 4th inning could be telling.

Apparently the bats were due....

You playing anything in the subway series?

I'm thinking Yankee's TT o4.5 
Yankees ML

Bout a 10-15mph wind blowing North/North West...this might help the Yanks knock a few out

Yes.  The Houston bats did their job.  Gomez pitched a perfect game through 4 in about 30 pitches.  Then he totally unraveled.  Houston's bullpen is horrific.  Hopefully they can hold it whenever they take out the starter.  As far as the Yankee game goes, good luck.  No play for me.  If Houston wins, I'm taking off until Monday !!
