#1: UNDER 7.5 TOR/TBR -115
My model has this one at 6.1 total runs and 8 would be needed to lose this one. Price is in a very good form right now, and he's coming off a game where he only threw 78 pitched due to getting hit by a line-drive in the chest. He should be very 'fresh' in this one. One thing about Price is that he is lethal against lefties. His 3.14 xFIP against left-handers is one of the best in the league (it's 3.29 against righties which is also spectacular but his overal 3.91 against right-handers in his career is average). Well, Blue Jays have a number of left-handers in their lineup: Thames, Lind, Johnson, Rasmus, Loewen, Cooper. I expect at least 5 of these players to start today. This is in part a reason why Price is 9-1 with a 1.99 ERA and a 0.99 WHIP against the Jays in his career. It also helps that the Jays are averaging only 3.4 rpg in their last 5, getting double-digits in hits only once in that span. Opposite Price is Morrow. He's a bit of a 'wild-card' as he is hit-or-miss. I like the fact that he's coming off a very dominant performance against the Yankees in his last start, holding New York to only 4 hits and 0 ER's in 8 innings of work. That was definitely a gem! He's been a bit inconsistent against the Rays this year but overall has a 2.86 ERA and 1.04 WHIP against them. Morrow is on the road for this one where his ERA is 3 runs lower than at home and in his last 3 starts at Tampa he's allowed only 5 ER's on 11 hits in 17.1 innings of work. I like him to pitch well in this one.
The O/U is 24-46 in Tampa's home games this year, 2-5 in Rays' last 7 games, 5-7 in Morrow's 'away' starts, and 5-10 in Price's home starts. I like the UNDER in this one.
#2: Los Angeles Dodgers -115
Let's get a couple of interesting trends out of the way first:
* Dodgers are 80-77 (51%) on the season while Padres are 68-89 (43%)
* Dodgers are 36-38 (49%) on the road, 16th best in the majors while Padres are 32-43 (43%) at home, 5th worst.
* Dodgers are 55-52 (51%) in night games while Padres are 36-66 (35%) in the same scenario
* As a road favorite in the -100 to -125 range Dodgers are 10-6 (63%) this year, while as home dogs in this range Padres are 8-18 (31%)
* Dodgers are 14-7 (67%) in September while Padres are 8-11 (42%) in this month
* Dodgers are 22-21 (51%) against left-handed starters while Padres are 19-29 (40%) against them
* Dodgers are 11-4 (73%) against the Padres while Padres are....well, 4-11 of course against LAD :)
I think you get the point. I'm not much of 'trends' guy since I feel most of them are completely meaningless as one could use infinite number of irrelevant variables to create one to fit their needs. But the trends above do show one thing: Dodgers are a significantly better team this year than Padres. At the same time, Dodgers are playing much better 'baseball' at the current moment.
Comparing the actual players in this game, we have Lilly going against LeBlanc. Lilly has quietly put together a solid season, especially his last 10 starts. He hasn't given up more than 3 ER's in any of those and has been fairly efficient in the process. He's still a fly-ball pitcher but in a 'pitcher's' park like Petco that shouldn't be a problem. Lilly is 9-4 against the Padres in his career with a 2.52 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP. I like him to pitch well today against a Padres team that is the worst offensive squad in the majors over the last month or so. (heck, the whole year!)
LeBlanc is coming into this game with a 5.07 ERA and a mediocre 1.46 K/BB ratio. His advanced stats are very poor in part due to a 34% LD-rate, one of the worst in the league. He is 1-5 against the Dodgers life-time with a 5.21 ERA and 1.45 WHIP. Los Angeles is actually one of the hottest teams offensively over the last month in the majors (#7 to be exact) and I expect them to have success in this one as they've been averaging 7.2 rpg in their last 6.
I like Dodgers to win this one. Oh and since I started this write-up with a trend, let me end it with a trend as well:
* Dodgers are 18-7 (72%) this year when playing on a Friday while Padres are 7-17 (29%) in the same scenario!
Talk about a "meaningless trend" eh? :) Well, Dodgers are 215-176 (55%) in their last 391 Friday games while Padres are 175-212 (45%) in their last 387 Fridays. Hmmm... That's a fairly large sample-size. Maybe this trend is not that "meaningless" after all :)

As well, do you not wait to finalize your wagers until you see the lineups for the day? Or is that not as important for you?
Because, I seem to always wait for the lineups but the line is always moved either upwards or downwards by that time....
what is your advice for this?

thank you for the great picks last night but which do you believe is the safest play, LAD or the Under?
"Safest play" eh? Well, there really is NEVER a safe play from my perspective. Any and every play can and does lose.
I love them both. Not really sure...flip a coin? :)

Thanks for all you do, it is greatly appreciated by many. More leans than usual today - is that just based on line value that you find late in the season when some teams have clinched, some are fighting to get in, some are looking at young prospects, etc.?

It depends on each individual situation. Sometimes it's pretty easy to tell what lineups will be in there. I'm pretty confident I know the lineups for TOR and TBR today, as well as for the Dodgers. Padres have some injuries so not sure who will start/sit, but it doesn't really matter with a team like that. If a few of their 'key' guys sit, then it's a bonus. If not it's not a big deal.
Games like yesterday with Rays/Yankees depend on lineups so I wait for those, even though it costs in terms of 'higher juice' (sometimes 'lower' depending on what team you're looking to back but you can predict that as well).
Most of the time you get better odds if you can predict a lineup early without waiting for the actuals. Once those come out, the books adjust the odds and you might lose out on some 'value'.

Yup, exactly! Tons of 'odds value' out there. A ton of teams are over-inflated based on 'playoff motivation' factor which (I know I sound like a broken record) is not as big of a 'factor' in baseball. I'm not playing any of those today, but it's not smart to back the heavy 'favorites' also.

I can't trust Morrow he's either great or horrible often in the same game. I am glad to see you leaning NATS though. I took them ML-120 & RL-1.5 +190
Oh and we missed a week but for the record the p.o.w is EDM +1 at home to the AL's tonight. I hit the BC game a few weeks back so pretty sure that got me back in the +$ at 4-3 +0.7
Thanx for all the hard work buddy

True, true...so just for jokes, lets see how close your theoretical lineup is to the actual....what is your best guess for both games?

Toronto:
6. J.P. Arencibia (R) C
Tampa:
9. Wise, Teahen, or even Molina as a DH (one of their weak-hitting righties)
Probably one of the lefties though, either Loewen or Cooper..Really doesn't matter!
Probably same lineup as yesterday as it's a 'lefty-heavy' one. (Morrow's a righty but he's just as good against lefties if not better):

Bodio, LOVE the picks! BOL buddy... Out of curiosity, what would you say after the 2 picks would be your strongest leans? Phils? Indians? Looking @ both of those very closely so would love your thoughts.
