I did Kershaw under 6 strikeouts in his last appearance. That worked.
I am inclined to take the 6.5 over. More than inclined actually. Kershaw needs to go deep into this game. Which obviously is the source of Kershaw’s playoff failure which is universally acknowledged by this point. He actually does okay under 5 innings. The Dodgers have pitching problems. They have a bullpen day coming up. Their rotation is 52 card pick up.
So Kershaw stays out there and simultaneously the Rays are huge strikeout victims.
The risk is the Rays sit on Kershaw’s first pitch fastball. This is his latest gimmick to get ahead and then deal his junk. Braves were all over that to nice success.
It’s a Kershaw playoff day and I am finding far less joy than I have in years past. These were once personal holidays for me. Now everyone is the Kershaw sharp. They have taken something very precious to me and passed it around like badguy’s date. It’s a copyright infringement. The Kershaw hate is something I never intended to share.
I have a feeling the end is near and I’m a bit sad.
Let’s make some money. That always helps.
I have been buying Rays series especially +1.5 games -115. I see EVERY sharp is on this. Sigh. Again, pitching wins. Always has. Remember the one trick Nats.
I am going to pass on the more exotic Tampa series exact outcomes at very attractive odds. There will be much to wager instead.
Prop: Arozarena over 1.5 bases +110
Game: over 7.5
Kershaw could be the wrench in my over plans....I would write more but have been threatened with a lawsuit from San for plagiarism.
Bovada is weak on the props for this game ,WTF.
You guys like the over?
Dodgers team total over 1½ -155 for 1st 5 Innings
Dodgers team total over 4½ +110 for Game
over 7½ -110 for Game
Series Handicap - Tampa Bay Rays +1½ games -115
I have an old
MLB Futures - World Series - Odds to Win the World Series - Los Angeles Dodgers +375
I have nothing for tonight’s sides.
I hate my Dodgers 4½ over. Impulsive. I’ll consider it an opposite pick.
I friggin LOVE Rays +1.5 series. Dodgers pitching lulz. Let them limp to 6 or 7 games
badguy waltzes in here after first pitch give him shit.
What was once cutting edge hate is now accepted wisdom. It’s in the public domain now
If you are playing every single day you aren’t prepping as a batter like the Rays will - especially given their additional day off.
There is a defined book on elderly Kershaw now. His approach. His sequence. His location. It’s a game of adjustments as they all say. If Kershaw has another gear then we tip our cap. I’m not worried except that it’s a big park and now Mookie and Bellinger are robbing HR’s.
Read a blurb online that basically said Chris Taylor will have the meat of the supposed best lineup in the game in front of him and that anything can happen over 5/6 games - and by extension by opportunity alone Shouldn’t be 100-1 to win MVP
There is an element of politics at play that I cannot judge without joining this world.
For instance
Will they give Kershaw a lifetime achievement award? I have no idea how he will do. I can’t sense the level of concern for him.
Will Mookie get it in light previous playoff accomplishment and the heavy MLB marketing as a face of the game?
Will ARoz continue otherworldly?
It’s a handicap all unto its own and you can fire lotsa bullets and some unforeseen event takes place. It’s a totally separate game.
Lotta people believe it will be a Tampa pitcher
I just don’t have the heart
im on the over 7.5; don’t love it, but only 1U
