Last time we broke down some game analysis and was pretty damn on point. Only thing was, we didn’t put our money where our mouth (analysis) is.
BOS 4-0, covered all RLs
SEA 4-0, cover all + moneyline (+130, +200, +200, +190)
SD 3-0, covered all moneyline
WAS 1-2, Only got Tanner Roark ml. They choked game 3 for walk off grand slam.
We predicted Boston to win at least 3 of 4 games against the Baltimore Orioles. The outcome was that they won all 4 games and covered all of the RL / ml as well. They averaged like 5.5/6 points per game as well, so they probably hit like 3 team total over 5.
The other game we predicted well, was Seattle, I knew they would take 2 games from Houston, but DAMN they swept them like easy peasy. Seattle were huge +200 underdogs in each match except game 1. They won all 4 just like Boston. Great money make on both these series but yet we did not capitalize.
We also correctly hit each of the games in the SD vs PHI match up. We predicted 3 for 3, 100%. Though the offense tighten up and they did not average 4 points per game anymore, they did well with their pitching staff to hold down the Phillies. We knew Aaron Nola is to legit, thus we rode them to beat the Padres.
NOW…let’s break down a few series…BUT… this time we put our money where our mouth is!
ARI vs SD, 4 game series.
GM1: Claybol vs Nix (Rookie)
-CASHED IN the 1st 5 ml with ARI.
GM2: Ray vs Lucchesi (Like the over in this game)
GM3: Godley vs Richards
GM4: Grienke vs Kennedy (Rookie)
This is what we think. Arizona takes 3-1 out of this 4 games series minimum. SD is one of the worst if not THE worst home baseball teams this year. SD is 22-41 at home. Arizona this year alone is leading 8 games to 3 against SD thus far. SD is very anemic on offense. They traded away a lot of power pitching staff away. So pretty much they have no offense and below average pitching. The trick is predict which game SD has the best chance to win, OR we can just take Arizona each game and at this rate we will cash 3 out of 4.
Conclusion: Arizona takes 3 out of 4 games at least. And if I had to pick a game that SD can win, it will be Richards against Godley solely based on the a gut feeling that since Godley had 3 solid starts, he’s due to lose one. If Ray win like how we predict them to today, it would set up SD at a high ml dog play on Saturday…just something to note.
ONE MORE GAME!
MIL vs STL, 3 game series.
GM1: Peralta (Rookie) vs Flaherty (Rookie)
GM2: Miley vs Mikolas
GM3: Anderson vs Gant
So what do we know, STL won 7 in a row before losing to Nationals last night. They were playing fantastic baseball, but yesterday they played some poor defense and got taken advantage of. Milwaukee, they got POWER, they can hit the long ball, they got a stingy bull pen, but for some reason they were in a funk and just couldn’t win series. 1-2 against SD, 1-2 against ATL, 1-1 against the Cubs. So overall they won 3 and loss 5 on their last 7 games. Brewers can score, but they need to put it together and their pitching needs to keep it clean for 6 solid innings if possible. Baseball is all about timing. Everything has to connect. What I mean is, when your pitcher is doing good, HOOK HIM UP WITH SOME RUN SUPPORT. When you got runner in scoring position, CAPITALIZE, then let the bullpen come in and lock the game up. This goes for ALL teams.
Brewers currently lead 7 games to 6 against the Cardinals. So far it is a tight battle between the two. Brewers take 2-1 in this series as they come back to life for the wild card. Don’t get it twisted, nationals were on the tail of beating Cardinals in a few games if not for their faulty bullpen.
