00:00The Cardinals are in the Bronx against the Yankees this weekend. Marcus Strowman against
00:09Eric Fetty to kick things off. Minus 185 for the Yanks, plus 155 for St. Louis, and an
00:17eight and a half. A lot of guys on the Cardinals, Joe, of course, know Strowman very well from
00:21his days with the Cubbies.
00:24Yeah, they do. And Fetty with the White Sox, the Yankees know him. So this just feels like
00:33we're going to get runs. I don't think we should overthink it. We should just assume
00:40this is not going to be a 2-1 game, but much closer to a 9-10 run game. So it's up and over
00:46for me in this one.
00:47This next one's up and over for me, Joe. That is the Pirates in Cleveland against the
00:54Guardians with Bailey Falter and Ben Lively going. Minus 145 for Cleveland, plus 120 for
01:00the Buccos, and an eight and a half, which I think is kind of light. Lively gives up
01:04tons of home runs. Falter hasn't been great either on the Pittsburgh side of things. I'm
01:09going to go after the eight and a half, Joe, to the upside.
01:12I don't hate that either. And I also think that the Guardians will have a lead in the
01:19first five. I think they're going to roll it. They avoided getting swept, which was
01:23nice. And I think they've got to keep that rolling into this one here and get some runs
01:30early and play from in front and let that bullpen do its thing.
01:34Oakland into Arlington against the Rangers. J.P. Sears and Roebuck go for the A's. John
01:40Gray on the Rangers side of things. We're minus 135, plus a buck 15 for Oakland on
01:47the road and an eight and a half. What do you like here, Joe?
01:51Yeah, there's no way I'm backing John Gray, who's a unmitigated disaster. And Sears
01:59has been, I mean, how could we not take him at plus money? What are we doing here? I mean,
02:04it's not even close. I think Oakland has won 22 of its last 36 years,
02:11like the last four starts under a two ERA. I mean, granted, he got beat up by the Brewers,
02:17but that's nothing his last time out. But that's nothing to be ashamed about.
02:23I like the Oakland team at a big plus price here.
