1-0 yesterday for 50 dimes or $500 worth of profit. he nailed his largest play of his careeer..HE IS ON FIRE GUYS...yes he has horrible losing streaks, however when he gets on a roll (hopefully) he does outstanding for months...on the flip side, when he is bad he is bad....CAUTION!!!! lol.. bet at your own risk...OVERALL, since ive started posting he is 62-65-3 for PLUS 10 dimes...he is finally on the plus side.
Saturday's Winner ... 30 DIME release on the SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS over the Toronto Blue Jays in interlaague action on Saturday. As I publish this selecteion, the Giants are a favorite of -140 to -150 both offshore and here in Las Vegas. NOTE: List Matt Cain (San Francisco) and Jesse Litsch (Toronto) as the starting pitchers. If either pitcher does not start, this play is VOID!
Giants
What an enormous pitching advantage San Francisco has in this one, as Matt Cain goes up against Toronto’s Jesse Litsch. Cain is 6-4 with a sick 2.05 ERA, but that only tells part of the story. Over his last five starts, Cain has given up just three runs (two earned) in 41 innings – that’s a 0.44 ERA! And if not for a 1-0 loss at the A’s that started this increaible five-start stretch – Cain allowed just the one run, and it was unearned – the hard-throwing right-hander would be working on a five-game winning streak (he’s won his last four in a row by a composite score of 18-3!).
Cain has been sensational all season on the road, too, allowing just nine earned runs in 42 2/3 innings (1.90 ERA). And with this being an early start in Toronto, it’s interesting to note that Cain is 2-2 with a 1.56 ERA in five day games.
What about Litsch? Well, all you need to know is that he made his first big-league start since April 2009 on Sunday, and he lasted all of 2 1/3 innings at Colorado, alloewing seven runs in a 10-3 loss. Since the start of last season, Litsch has started three games in the majors and given up 16 runs in 11 1/3 innings (12.70 ERA). What’s more, dating to 2007, the Blue Jays have lost seven of Litsch’s last 10 games against winning teams and four of his last five interleague starts.
Three more salient points to make:
1) Both these starting pitohers come from the right side, which is key because the Giants entered this three-game weekend series batting .302 against right-handers in their previous 10 games, while Toronto was hitting .205 in its last 10 against righties.
2) Even though they fell short in a 3-2 loss last night, the Giants are still 7-2 in the last nine meetings with the Blue Jays.
3) San Francisco (5-2 last seven games, all vs. the A.L.) are hotter than the Blue Jays (4-7 last 11 overall, 3-8 last 11 interleague games)
Bottom line: The Blue Jays – who have hit more home runs than any team in baseball this season by a mile – rely way too much on the long ball to score runs. Well, Cain has served up just four long balls all season, including just one in 42 2/3 innings on the road. Now he’s facing a club that’s been held to three runs or less in 10 of its last 12 games.
