Game 3 at Tampa

How deep will Perlata last in this game 3?

I think this may be the key for who wins.

GLTA.

No stats here I’m taking TB ml-119

win they have a chance lose they are done. TB plays well at home this game determines the WS Champs. 

@Dulay

 So you’re saying if TB wins tonight they go on to win the WS….

Don’t post much as it takes a lot of time to put your house in order, but the World Series is always special and I’m hooked this year particularly as my Dodgers shit the bed.

I’m sure everyone’s heard that since August 26 Peralta is 7-0 with a .89 ERA. And having pitched 8 seasons with the Brewers (does not matter when), he knows the organization…and they know him. 

My take is that at home, once the Rays get things started, the fans will provide enough push to get the W. Also don’t think Rays will repeat on the sloppy defense.

Game 3 to Rays -118 and TT team total over 3.5

GLTA!

Here's an interesting observation. Peralta pitched for Milky his first 6 seasons. Contreras was his catcher the last two. If anybody know a pitcher's tendencies, it's the catcher. That's as fundamental as it gets in baseball. Rays bettors need to consider what this means. It's the worst macthup scenario for them in game 3.

Murphy will load the left side vs. Peralta. He'll start six excellent lefties who will have a pretty good clue as to what Peralta will be throwing. The three righties in the line-up will be Chourio, who can hit anybody, Contreras, his former catcher, and a kid who is living out a dream. That bodes big trouble for Senor Peralta, I believe.

And too, it's been the left side that has done the damage so far for the Rays: Hicks, Simpson, Aranda, Mesa. Gasser could and should neutralize them. Palacios and Hicks probably won't even start, which hurts Tampa offensively. Diaz and Caminero have yet to come alive; Gasser will need to keep them in the park. Plus, the bottom of the order for the Rays has done absolutely nothing to help them on offense. You have to look at the numbers here.

Given the way game 3 matches up, I may be wrong, but I like Milky even more than in the first two games. Brewers as a short dog looks awfully tasty. Regardless, you gotta love Murphy and the way he has Milky playing baseball. He's been a magician the way he's managed the lineup and pitching those 1st two games.

BOL,

Thanks RT2. Great insight. Appreciate your thoughts.

Guess it could matter when Peralta pitched for the Brewers. Did not know that he pitched two years with Contreras catching. I assume Freddie knows this and will adjust accordingly?

As to the Murphy strategy of having the six lefty batters starting out maybe your right.

Bottom line, unless Rays bats explode with runs, seems most people are on the same page with…if Freddy gets in trouble early (or whenever), so do the Rays chances for the W in game 3.

Wow, you like Milky best in this game 3 versus the first two.

Not that I am a great believer that the betting lines are nothing more than which way money is coming in at the bookmakers, is the public that mistaken in propping up the Rays at -118 (have not checked lately)?

Maybe it’s just that I want a 4-2 Brewers series for a previous wager.

if the Rays go down 3-0 do you think the matchups get any better in games four and five for potential Ray victories?

Thank you Sir.

can believe Rays go down 3-0.

No team has led 3-0 in the World Series after winning the first two games by one run each.
