I couldn't pull the trigger on fading Felix for the second time this road trip, I should have . . . at least I didn't get sucked into to backing him as a slight favorite. It appears the Mariners offense of yesteryear has returned in full bloom. Thus, going under 7.5 paid dividends in spite of the King coughing up 6 runs.
On the strength of home runs, the Mariners are scoring 4.1 runs per game since May 3, but the team average sits at .226/.309/.398 over that same stretch.
Since May 3, Mariners are 7-7, and thats likely a good representation of what kind of team they are and will be.
Meanwhile, since April 20, no team in baseball has a better winning pct than your cleveland indians (20-7)
Felix Hernandez has always had "bad" stretches in his career, periods of time when is not very effective at all. Iwakuma doesn't . . . albeit with a much smaller sample size . . . nonetheless, the Japanese import has been as consistent as any pitcher in baseball since he joined the rotation in early July of last season.
Moving forward, I don't like the idea of fading Iwakuma and only getting -102 for my efforts . . . will need to research Kazmir a bit . . . but under 7.5 seems appealing once again.
