There probably should be an extra line on today’s games. “Brett Anderson or Brandon Morrow leaves their game with an injury. +110”
I kid, I kid. Really though, we are no coming up to the back end of everyone’s rotation. We get the question mark pitchers with injury history, the veteran workhorses that don’t have much stuff left in the tank, the would-be but never-was former prospects and the guys teams are just looking to eat some innings to not stretch their bullpens too thin.
That being said, like yesterday, I don’t really see any value lines on today’s games. I’d be tempted to take San Francisco vs San Diego Over 7 runs by the what I’ve seen left in Lincecum’s arm and Morrow’s history of short starts.
However, I will lay off all action today and watch the outcomes. I’m particularly interested in seeing the following:
What kind of action Derek Holland has in his arm this season.
If Nathan Eovaldi’s fastball still has no movement (therefore negating the high velocity)
Mike Fiers command
If Brett Anderson’s arm falls off
If Taijuan Walker can command the strike zone against a patient Oakland lineup.
If Brandon Morrow is at full strength
If the Twins lineup can score against the very mediocre Hector Noesi
