***2nd Umpire Over is ⭐️Disneyland Angels/TO Blow Jays Over 9 (played^) w/Nestor Ceja who is 12-6 over on 9.3 runs. The over is a whopping 33-10 for the jays and 5-0 in Francis starts. Both pitching staffs stink,both giving up losts of runs as Toronto is 25th w/ a 5.33 ERA and LA is 15th with a 4.08 ERA. Runs should be plenty with the matchup and Nestor helping the hitters.

was asked by @JDS my rationale behind the Dodgers over, here's why:

Re: Dodgers Over. Both Offenses are on a team, Milwaukee is hitting .265 since ASB, and going against Kershaw who gave up 3 in 4 IP against SD. Doyers hitting .250 against Milw this year, and the over is 17-6 in Peralta starts and on a 10-4 run overall. Peralta's ERA goes up to 4.4 when pitching at home, since the ASB he has a 3.6 ERA in 4 starts, while his offense is 5th in the league with a .257 ERA and on LA's side they are hitting .252 this yr ranking 11th, and have scored the 4th most runs, while hitting the 3rd most homers. Their lineup comes alive on the road vs home as they hit .254 away and .238 at home. The over has a real good shot.

***1st Umpire Over is KC/Minny Over 7.5 (Played above) with Ryan Willis- who is 11-9 over but avg near 10 runs, on a low 63% strikes and very low 2.23 SO/BB ratio-same as last year when he was near 10 runs. His metrics are conducive to more runs with less K's, more walks. In Minny, Singer has posted an eye-boggling 9.15 ERA across 20.2 IP. Over the last 2 years, the Royals have a bad 6.1 ERA and 1.5 WHIP in Minny. Both teams are Top 10 in many key offensive cat-BA, Slug%. The over is 5-1 for the Twins this week and a whopping 12-4 for the royals. All signs lead to a high scoring run game.
Cashed really early before the 5th.....another one cashes easy

Thanks for putting your best play in the number 4 slot, mofo …… lol

Hope all is well

thank you, I had you in mind when I put that one there. All is better now, dodged a bullet.

Out of the 11 announcements and 3 others based on rotational crew movements, only 1 umpire is conducive to runs/over and that's Drekman. Giants crew is remaining but the 4 man crew also isnt great (Bucknor, Iassogna, Beck and Riggs), so unless there's any changes last minute, no more umpire totals. The umpire in the one under I played (Mets) happens to be hitter friendly with more runs and a 11-7 over (Derek Thomas) but I still like the under due to the great pitching on both sides, the bullpen strength and the anemic offenses of both teams in the last 10 days. Under is 6-1 for the A's, and 8-1 for the Mets, indicating this to be a low scoring affair.

“All plays are standard bets unless adorned with a star. Those adorned with a star are TOP Plays. **Top plays are listed in order of strength.*

Turns out there was a change in Umpires in San Diego.. It was John Libka who is more of under ump this year, he is swapped tonight for an over ump in James Hoye. I added another unit to the bet with Hoye.

***2nd Umpire Over is ⭐️Pirates/Padres Over 7.5-115 with James Hoye who is avg near 10 runs a game on a 12-9 Over record. Since 2020, his games have avg greater than 9 runs. The matchup points to an over as i had this at 8 runs and added 1 with the umpire now a top play, as SD avg 4.8 runs per making them 10th in MLB, and hit for a .266 avg, and in august hitting .280, while pirates avg 4.21 runs making them 21st, but hitting better in august, they are 9-5 over while Padres 11-5 last 2 wks, but 6-3 in King's home starts.

Guess we lucked out with the A's going with a different starter, wondered why some other guy was pitching, stripling scratched.

Playing another over that has a good shot---

⭐️Angels/Toronto Over 8-120

The over is 8-1 last 9 Blow Jays games and 33-11 last 44. Both pitching staffs are the worst in terms of allowing runs, with Toronto allowing 6 more or more in 3 of their last 5 before last night, and 6 of their last 11, while the angels have allowed 4 or more in 7 of their last 10, over the campaign, angels are 27th allowing 4.9, angels 26th allowing 4.8. Jays avg 4.25 runs on the road which is more than at home, so I see this game getting just above their averages and reaching 9-10 runs.
