4* Total Money OVER
(MLB) Minnesota vs. LA Dodgers,
Total: 9.50 | -125.00 Under
Result: Win
Going OVER the total here. Have to tell you the truth. I see we are getting +105 and I am a bit worried. Looks a little too easy. And you know I try to avoid the 'easy money' and low hanging fruit, especially on the bases. I not only shy away from when a team looks like it should be laying more than 110, I usually go the other way. Albeit, we do get mixed results. But there is not a chance on God's green Earth that I can think that 63 year old Bartolo Colon or however old he is (44) keeps this Dodgers offense in check. He is going to give up at least 5 runs. No way that LAD thinks this is a cake walk. Not after losing the first 2 at home to the Braves, and having their ace go down yesterday and their bullpen stud blow the lead. Forget about Colon's first start against his old team the Mets (1 run). His other 7 road games he has given up 42 runs! 42 runs in 33 innings on 58 hits. Has he found the fountain of youth? Now we add in Ryu who is off the DL. Again, you know I like fading guys making first starts off the DL. He hasn't been particular great with a 4.17 ERA at home, 4.21 on the season. Twins have some bats, and Ryu has given up 11 homers in his 7 home games. 4* Total Money OVER Twins/Dodgers
