Rays -143
Time Stamped Release
Apr 02, 2010 - 12:00 AM
Grab today's MLB ay of the day, I was 110-60 last year of MLB pods and this year I'm looking to do the same with opening day around the corner don't miss out!
I don't normally go this high on the juice, but since runlines are not available yet I kind of have to. ÂI love the Rays here in this spot it will be on their home turf at Tropicana Field and they'll have Matt Garza going up against Mike Pelfrey who has just been and always has been a disaster early in the season and spring training. ÂOpponents have a .370 average off him this spring and he has a 7.97 ERA giving up 34 hits in 20.1 IP. ÂHis previous 2 years in spring were 7.77 ERA and 8.14 ERA. ÂWhy you may ask? ÂBig Pelf is purely a sinker ball pitcher. ÂHe throws a flat fast ball with not much movement early on and his sinker is just not effective like many other sinker ball pitchers. ÂAs the weather gets warm and the more these type of pitchers throw the more successful they become. ÂGarza has been brilliant this spring training posting a 2.78 ERA and what is more impressive is 21 strike outs in 22.2 IP as well as his .97 WHIP. ÂI think the Rays are overall a better team hitting wise too. Â
