Today's HIT Plays - 5/29/02
MLB: Line : Units : Comments
Cards (+140) (5)
The Cards are 9-1 in their last 10 and are surging through May. Stephenson has a 5.14 era and is 4-1 vs. Hou since '97. Miller comes in with a 9.00 era for the Astros and just hasn't pitched well. It's hard to pass up the better club at this price. Edge to CARDS...
Rockies (-110) (5)
Stark is 3-0 with a 1.50 era for the Rockies. The offense is posting 5.6 rpg vs. Righty starters. The Padres are scoring a dismal 3.7 rpg. at home and go Tolberg tonight. Edge to ROCKIES...
Twins (-105) (4)
Reed checks into the game with a 4.18 era and a 3.30 road era, the Twins are on a roll and have the better pen. Texas is slumping team. Edge to TWINS...
Yanks (-125) (3)
Here we have a pitching duel and a half and a good price. Clemens is 8-1 when starting against the White Sox with an ERA of 1.99 and a WHIP of 1.015 and the Yankee bats do tend to wake up when he's on the mound. Edge to YANKEES.
Pirates (+110) (3)
Wells has been solid going 7-2 with a 3.36 era, Pitt's pen checks in with a 2.98 era. Yes, Leiber is 7-0 vs. Pitt and should pitch well again tonight - I just find it very hard to go against a home dog with a solid pitcher. Under may be a play here. Edge to PIRATES...
