What has Eduardo Rodriguez done this year to make him such a big underdog? I know that the Dbacks suck hitting righties, so there's that.
Mclean has been great. Young kid. Although he hasn't faced much competition vs the Pirates(in March) and the Giants. We've seen all the young pitchers have a hard time in their 3rd start recently.
Rodriguez had a killer World baseball classic. He was on the bump for Venezuela when they won it all. 4 small sample sized innings in spring training he continued his success. He held down the Dodgers and Braves in his first 2 starts.
His ground ball rate is tremendous this season, the dude is doing something right.
Good Luck

Fwiw, I don't think people realize that Sugano has changed his approach up this year pitching wise. The dude came in from Japan being closer to a fly ball pitcher then a ground out guy. In Baltimore, where it's hot and humid in the summer he let up a ton of HR's.
Moving to Colorado this year couldn't ask for worse pitching conditions for a fly baller. So he is pitching lower in the zone this year. A great spliter(when it's on), good sliders and a wide arsenal.
It's been working for him.
The Rockies should be dogs tonight, but not +162. Make em +120, and that's only if Buehler resurrects himself which I don't see happening. I feel bad for the guy, he was lights out in his prime.

You could very well be right.

Also, if you have an opinion on the D'backs vs Phillies game I'd like to hear it. I looked at it for a while, read a lot of articles about both pitchers and clubs.
The line is insane, makes no sense. I'll give Luzardo his due, he can pitch really well. But I don't like anything else about the Phillies. Including their shitty defense on the field.
My gut told me to stay away, Philly probably pops tonight after 20 consecutive scoreless innings. Just because, that's baseball.
The line certainly says so.

I honestly don't see an edge for either side in that Diamondbacks game, but the diamondbacks look like a sucker bet. The line is high on Philadelphia because they're going to be a top 5 team this year and Luzardo had a great season last year.

The total is inflated here cause it's warm in Cinci(72), 53% humidity and wind blowing out to left center at 11mph. And they don't call it the great American Small Park for nothing.
Do people not understand how terrible both these clubs have been recently vs RHP? How bad they are with men on, and RISP? How high the Angels SO% is vs RHP, with the Reds right behind them?
Burns is 23 years old, super young so it's always a slight risk of him having a hiccup after 2 strong outings. But the line suggests otherwise, and the Angels offense is awful. His ground ball rate has been terrific, otherwise he's striking dudes out.
His prop is set at 8.5, but it's inflated a little. People know that and are betting the under, juice is -155. That's how bad this Angels team whiffs. I don't want any part of either side of this prop.
Kochanowicz is ground baller. His #'s may look inflated with a poor outing to start the season in Houston, a hitters paradise vs really good bats. Walks were his problem giving up 5, only 4 hits. He righted himself vs Seattle with a terrific outing, no walks 4 hits 0 earned. He should continue on that momentum vs this Reds lineup. A lineup who's hit 48% ground balls, 14% line drives, and batting .222/.590 vs RHP in the last 7 days.
That's all for today, GL
