Taking the PIRATES, again. How the heck is Senga favored here? Forget about whatever happens here on Friday night as I do this writeup. New York comes in off a brutal loss vs Atlanta and another blown game. They lose their best player for about a month. Pirates have been feisty all year. And Senga comes to town with a 6.12 road ERA coupled with a .287 BAA and 1.84 WHIP - Look I am not a big believer that Pittsburgh is going to be in 2nd place and a playoff contender this season. But I will absolutely grab some plus money with a home dog against a team that is in a tailspin. 4* Money Maker PITTSBURGH PIRATES
