MLB Play Early Thursday 10/8 - Winner!
Only looked at this game so far, if I play the night game I will add it soon. Just wanted to get this posted now...
$200 Texas +1.5 (-105)
$100 Texas +195 Split wagers makes this a risk 310 to win 395 proposition with a $100 profit on a 1 run Texas loss. I was tempted to make this an even split with the ML, but might as well guarantee a profit on a 1 run loss. Nobody examining the head to head numbers of these 2 pitchers vs. the opposing line-ups would bet on Toronto today, NOBODY. The numbers look basically even to me, Gallardo actually has the edge based on not allowing this team a single earned run in 2 starts this season. Gallardo is a veteran with postseason experience (2.84 ERA in 3 starts 19 IP in 2011 with Brewers), so he won't be rattled by the big stage. Texas bullpen is going to have to help out here because he generally gets high pitch counts early. The Toronto hitters may help him out by being anxious and swinging at stuff they would normally take, but don't expect Gallardo to last longer than 6 innings. $WINNER$ (+395)
