EARLY 10* MLB BOOKIEKILLER (80% SURGE!)
(MLB) San Francisco vs. NY Yankees,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -150.00 San Francisco (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* BOOKIEKILLER on the Giants run-line.

It's the start of the season. We'll base our picks on different criteria for this particular contest, than we will in a month from now.

For arguments sake, I believe these team's line-ups are pretty much "even." It would not be hard to write a convincing argument for either team to win today based upon the quality of the bats in each team's line-up.

For me this one comes down to the starting pitchers, and I believe that Ross Stripling has a clear advantage. As good as Jhony Brito has looked in Spring Training and early on, he draws a tough assignment out of the gate here in the Giants.

Stripling was 10-4 with a 3.01 ERA in 32 appearances for Toronto last year. He's 0-5 with a 4.55 ERA in seven career appearances vs. the Yanks, but I say that run of futility comes to an end here.

That said, the value here lies in laying the price for the extra 1.5 runs in our back pocket, as I see this contest being decided late, or even in extras.

The play is SAN FRANCISCO on the RUN-LINE option.

Good luck, NP
