Recap:
Winner. We are officially on the board. We get there pretty easily. He put up a clinic. He had people get on but then would immediately end the inning right after. The Padres were shit and didn’t have it. This is why I love the weekdays. I get to pick aces to do their job. It’s that simple. This one did have a little weird end I must say. He gave up two walks in the 7th so you would think they would pull him. Unfortunately, the Dbacks are another incompetent NL West team. They kept him in and then they had an error and the Pads scored 1. Listen, I am not going to pretend to be a baseball rules expert but I believe it would have hit no matter what after he got pulled since the runner on first was due to an error. Luckily I didn’t have to think about that because the reliever came in and quickly closed out the inning. One earned run and we are on the board. Fuck yea. Now I want more and be positive for the first time in months.
Lock: Athletics U2.5 F5 1u to win 0.9u
Groundbreaking Analysis:
Here we go. We have baseball and we have another under. I want to bet against hitters and I want to bet on pitching clinics. It is exactly what we have here. Singer is really solid and I am expecting him to perform well here. It is a spot I love for the slumping Athletics to come out cold. They didn’t score a single run on Sunday and are on a five game losing steak. They are also starting a road trip and they will stay cold. Singer has been pitching well and I love it. This is another great spot for an under. I need this under for positivity. Give me this under.
