Cleveland (Sabathia) +106 Over Kansas City (Anderson)


Sabathia 7-4 with 3.19 Era .248 Average Allowed vs. KC Lifetime.
Sabathia allowed just 2 hits in 7 innings and .095 Average in 1st Start this Season.

Anderson vs. Cleveland 2-0 but only 11 Er's in 18.1 innings 5.40 Era and .265 Average.
Anderson Spring Training: 0-2 6.75 Era (15 Er's/20 innings, 27 hits allowed)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Colorado(Stark)/Los Angeles (Nomo) Over 7.5 (Would buy 1/2 run to make it 7)

Stark Spring Training 0-2 12.12 Era (22 Er's in 16 innings and 29 hits)
Stark 3-1 3.37 Era Lifetime vs. LA

Nomo
Spring Training 1-4 8.13 Era (25 Er's in 27 innings and 39 hits)
Lifetine Vs. Colorado 8-2 4.57 Era (51 Er's in 100.1 innings)
Nomo 1st Start: 7 Er's in 5.0 innings

Nomo since coming off injury so far:
1-5 9.00 Era with a 16/19 Walk-Stike Ration in 32.0 innings
With Nomo, he needs his control to be effective. His 4.50 Walk per 9.0 innings
shows that he's not in top form. 32 Er's in 32.0 innings would be the other, wa,wa,wa.

Taking the Over 7 (would buy the 1/2 run in this instance)

7.5 is a fairly low number to hang considering how these two starters are pitching.
It is being played in an Under ballpark and LA pen has been tough.
Neither pitcher has been sharp.

Parlaying:
Houston (Oswalt) 197 Over St.Louis (Marquis)
with San Antonio -165 Over Memphis

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Parlaying:
Cleveland (Sabathia)-154 Over Kansas City (Affeldt)
with
New York Yankees(Mussina)-153 Over Chicago White Soxs (Schoeneweis)

Then going the Over way with
Chicago Whitesoxs (Schoeneweis) +140 Over New York Yankees (Mussina)

If one bets $10 on this Parlay, the profit would be +17.27 If both teams win.
So if Cleveland indeed does win, one would wager the would be profits (+ $17.27)
on Chicago at +140
If Chicago does win, the profit would be +24.17 minus -$10 from Parlay ticket
for an Overall Profit of +14.17 on $10
This would be the conservative way to play this.
.........................................................................................................................

As a straight Parlay,
Cleveland (Sabathia)-154 Over Kansas City(Affeldt)
with
Chicago WhiteSoxs (Schoeneweis) +140 Over New York Yankees(Mussina)

This Parlay would pay +29.58 Profit on a $10 wager.

The conservative way pays less, but one's intial wager is return if Chicago losses.
The other way, if Chicago loses, one loses $10.
If Cleveland loses, both ways would lose the intial $10 wager.

thanks and good luck,

Would have taken Boston(Martinez)/Cleveland(Sabathia) Under 7.5 but
Cleveland's bullpen has a 6.24 Era and those availible today a 10/63 Era
the last 31.1
Thus making the 7.5 a mite more risky.
Martinez 4-2 Quality Starts
Martinez 10-1 with 1.66 Career vs. Cleveland
Sabathia 4-0 Quality Starts
Sabathia 1-1 with 2.40 Era vs. Boston

Boston hitting .272 the last 8 games (4.5 Runs)
Cleveland .297 with .297 the last 5 games (5.6 Runs)

This should be a classic pitching duel. Have to lean towards Boston
due to edge in Bullpen.

----------------------------------------------------------

Taking Anahiem(Sele)-169 Over TampaBay (Gonzalez)

Sele 7-1 with 4.43 Era vs. TampaBay
Gonzalez 0-3 with 5.40 Era This Season
